4c56702e06 fix(server): schedule retained native-session cleanup (#17717)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs can retain a local session after an interrupted durable
suspend.
> - The orphan reaper repeatedly scans completed history for that
cleanup duty.
> - Idle scans keep the database active. Removing them requires complete
wake and ownership paths.
> - This pull request moves retained-session cleanup to committed
signals, local release events and saved deadlines.
> - Existing physical proof checks still decide whether cleanup is safe.
The shared scheduler does not grant execution authority.
> - The benefit is quiet retained history with recoverable cleanup and
owned shutdown.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17709 and #18135. This is slice 51 of the existing
recurring-server sleep stack. Both referenced dependencies have merged.
The target is `master`.

**What happened?**

The periodic orphan pass scans retained native sessions even after their
cleanup is complete or no automatic action is safe. Some eligible
sessions also depend on a local session, environment lease or original
maintenance callback releasing ownership. An earlier decision
notification can be consumed before the run's later terminal projection
commits.

**Expected behavior**

Reconstruct existing work at startup. Wake from committed writes and
actual owner release. Register the saved claim expiry or a probe for a
specific live process. Stop recurring discovery when no obligation
remains. Preserve original callback ownership and all existing cleanup
proof checks.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Retain completed native runs with a durable-suspend close failure.
2. Let the periodic orphan pass run with no new work.
3. Observe repeated cleanup discovery. Separately, delay terminal
projection after its decision notification is consumed and observe the
missing cleanup wake.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Parent #17709 at reviewed head
`3b75f4bc1da1370304f069fc287af3d693575716`, landed as
`df6156c2e37f542a69f393dde31e357b82b7cac1`. Current integrated master:
`31b927e3013a8a4b3266854b740cf40a24753788`.

## What Changed

- Move scoped, paged discovery to the retained cleanup owner. Preserve
explicit manual recovery.
- Register the duty with the shared scheduler and remove it from the
periodic orphan pass. Keep concrete lease expiry and live-process probe
obligations.
- Use typed outcomes for settled/refused work and process, session,
environment, maintenance or lease waits. Keep physical proof and
quarantine decisions in the executor.
- Wake from committed finalization and terminal projection writes,
durable process/lease release, and local session or callback settlement.
Routine company-only finalization hints leave dormant cleanup quiet.
- Join duplicate cleanup and serialize inspections on one database lane.
Keep original Runner callbacks owned until settlement and shutdown.
- Preserve all master profile fixtures and the branch's historical
identities. Save the colliding sleep profile 79 separately. Generate
combined Copilot profile 80 from its source and retain master's other
provider profiles.
- Add the owner audit and regression coverage. No new table, migration
or independent maintenance timer is added.

## Verification

- Server acceptance: **2,342 distinct passing cases in 18 complete
files**. The 14-file unaffected group contributes 1,532 passes. Full
startup contributes 76, process recovery 410, environment service 51,
and external-chat response 273. The 29-case cleanup worker suite and
977-case executor suite run in full. No case in these files is skipped.
- Controlled scope regression: removing only the ordinary finalization
issue/run guard wakes dormant retained cleanup; the same assertion
passes after restoring it. A real local owner release still resumes the
durable candidate.
- Preserve the first broad failure: 1,607 passed and one startup
shutdown case failed because the coordinator mock lacked `stop()`. Add
only that mock method. All 76 unchanged startup cases then pass. Do not
treat the first broad command as green.
- Dedicated PostgreSQL 17 databases use the existing migration 413
schema. Embedded-only fixtures use the existing recovery helper with
fresh per-call databases. All temporary imports are restored byte-exact.
No assertion or timeout is relaxed.
- Current-master integration preserves both complete source histories.
The server, UI and database trees are identical to the server-tested
source. All master historical profile fixtures remain byte-exact. The
prepared sleep profile 79 remains independently inspectable.
- Current runtime validation at
`d08f764e3efe75e96929173afe7ee8739121ad9f` passes all 12 commands (22
installed ACPX/Grok contract cases and 26 native-provider Rust cases):
`pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts`; Copilot/Grok identity
and generated profile checks; Runner and server typechecking; server
build; Copilot/Pi installation, profile compatibility and transport
settlement files (130 passed; one opt-in closed Pi snapshot case skipped
because its distribution root is not configured); installed ACPX
model/reconnect package contract and Grok identity tests; Rust
native-provider backend tests; module boundaries and migration order.
- Earlier 94-case installation/settlement acceptance applies to the
prepared profile 79 source. It is retained as history and does not
substitute for the current profile 80 validation above.
- Failure history and duty-specific evidence remain in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-retained-native-session-cleanup-sleep-audit.md`.
Exact-current-head acceptance: all 60 checks are clean, including
protected CI and security; Greptile gives 5/5 for
`281d579de0d08e907194b8b790a0597b07d16b7b` with no actionable findings.
No Ponytail review is present under the authorized missing-review
policy.
- These checks do not claim a full local repository suite, live Copilot
or Daytona qualification, deployed host/database suspension, or measured
cost savings.

## Risks

- Missing a supported producer could strand cleanup. Tests exercise real
finalizer, heartbeat, environment and process writers. Process-local
signals cover in-process writers; no multi-replica or external SQL
notification transport is added.
- A timeout can leave an original callback active. Cleanup and shutdown
must keep waiting for it. The existing global maintenance drain is
conservative across roots.
- A retained live process still has a scoped 30-second absence probe. A
saved lease keeps its actual deadline. Operational errors retain retry
work. Immutable proof refusals and operator-required histories do not
gain automatic retry authority.
- Cleanup keeps all existing artifact, identity, claim, no-launch and
quarantine checks. Terminal status alone does not authorize physical
cleanup.
- This PR does not expand Cloud alarm coverage or relax host sleep
eligibility. It proves worker behavior, not deployed app/database
suspension.
- The Copilot source identity has changed; these checks do not claim new
live provider qualification.
- The parent has merged. This PR is merged only after its current-head
protected CI and review gates pass under the existing campaign
authorization.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip aa75ec9d56 Replay Claude native options on ACP reconnect (#18135)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their task execution.
> - Runner uses ACPX to connect to Claude sessions.
> - Claude receives native options when ACPX creates a session.
> - ACPX omits those options when it loads or resumes the same session.
> - A reconnect can lose allowed tools, instructions, and settings
sources.
> - This pull request replays the existing options through the existing
Claude metadata contract.
> - Resumed tasks keep the configuration admitted for their session.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A Claude task can complete its first turn and then fail on a warm
follow-up. The provider refuses an internal completion tool because
`session/load` omits the `allowedTools` options sent with `session/new`.
The same omission exists on `session/resume`.

**Expected behavior**
Creation, load, and resume must supply the same caller-selected native
session options. The existing policy for native user settings must stay
unchanged.

**Steps to reproduce**
Create a persistent Claude ACP session with an explicit allowed-tool
list and appended instructions. Complete a turn, close its connection,
and reconnect to the saved session. Inspect the ACP request. Before this
change, the reconnect has no `_meta` field.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Reproduced on Runner source `e8b78cce5bb557b086bee9ca930eeaab1d09b244`.
The offline protocol regression also fails on the current base
`80a2b9284bf189e93ca4313085814548f48b8dc8`.

Related: #18089 added prepared harness storage. #11798 concerns the
separate legacy adapter and does not fix Runner reconnect metadata.

## Upstream status and backport scope

ACPX [0.21.1](https://github.com/openclaw/acpx/releases/tag/v0.21.1)
already replays session metadata on load and resume in its [released
client
implementation](https://github.com/openclaw/acpx/blob/v0.21.1/src/acp/client.ts).
This PR backports that behavior to the currently qualified 0.13.1
integration.

The released 0.21.1 runtime does not expose equivalents for all hooks
used by Runner's existing patch: verified executable spawning,
synchronous protocol admission guards, provider extension dispatch, and
response-delivery receipts. Upgrading requires a compatibility pass that
preserves these guarantees and removes local changes already covered
upstream. This backport does not add a new Paperclip-specific dependency
contract.

## What Changed

- Replay existing Claude native options on `session/load` and
`session/resume` through the same metadata builder used at creation.
Other providers keep their existing reconnect requests.
- Test both reconnect methods against the installed ACPX manager and a
local ACP wire fixture. Cover allowed tools, model, turn limit,
instructions, and both existing settings-source modes.
- Update exact source attestations and generated profile declarations
required by the shared ACPX patch. Keep historical fixtures unchanged.
- Document the reconnect contract. No new home mode, plugin policy, or
provider permission rule is added.

## Verification

- Confirmed the new load and resume tests fail before the patch because
metadata is absent.
- Applied the canonical patch to pristine package bytes and confirmed it
matches the tested runtime.
- Targeted installed-package model-selection and reconnect suite plus
changed Grok identity tests: 22 passed.
- Rechecked the four new reconnect cases against the cleanly applied
patch, with explicit expected values for all supplied options.
- Three targeted current-profile and revision-boundary assertions pass
locally. Updated the native Pi test digest; native compilation and
execution remain in CI.
- Maintained profile generators pass their consistency checks.
- GitHub CI is green, including typecheck, native Runner checks, package
contracts, packaged installation, build, and server/browser suites. One
unrelated server database-cleanup timeout passed on the bounded
failed-job rerun. No comprehensive local suite was run. Live
post-deployment acceptance remains pending.

## Risks

Claude reconnects now receive the same native settings sources and
options as creation. This corrects configuration loss without changing
caller policy. The shared dependency patch requires new source
identities for other attested profiles; their reconnect behavior is
unchanged. No database migration is required.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 80a2b9284b Define durable runtime activity events (#18129)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and tasks.
> - Runner reports durable run events through PRP.
> - Runtime clients need a typed record of reported activity.
> - The event must keep the normal run authority and read boundaries.
> - This pull request adds the generic runtime activity event contract.
> - Later PRs can publish and consume this contract without private
plugin coupling.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

First feature prerequisite extracted from #18050. Runner publishing is
#18050; the dependent consumer is #18131. Related independent test
stability work: #18128. The parent search and review history is
preserved in [the verification
archive](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18050#issuecomment-6489369676).

**Subsystem affected**

Runner event protocol, server run-event persistence and redaction, and
UI event taxonomy.

**Problem or motivation**

Core needs a durable, typed activity record tied to the authenticated
run. A text marker is not an event contract.

**Proposed solution**

Add `runtime.activity.recorded` as a P1 event with a closed `{
namespace, activityKey }` payload. Runner knows no plugin or panel
identity. Run/session identity, sequence and emission time stay in the
outer envelope; Core resolves company, task and agent through the
authorized run binding. Use the existing authenticated persistence,
acknowledgement, replay and redaction paths.

## What Changed

- Define and validate the event in PRP v1, v2 and v3. Update the
generated protocol artifacts and event catalog.
- Preserve saved and live event redaction. Test persistence, replay
deduplication and the existing run-read boundary.
- Register the event in the UI taxonomy without changing panel display
behavior.
- Advance the source-bound Copilot identity to 78. Retain all published
historical identity fixtures without changing their bytes.

## Verification

- Root `pnpm typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed for the revised
activity contract.
- Node protocol checks: 14 passed. Provider identity and registry tests:
185 passed. Server tests: 103 passed. UI event registry: five passed.
- Maintained Grok and Copilot identity generator checks and `git diff
--check`: passed.
- The first activity-contract review scored 4/5 because the dependent
producer and readers still used the earlier contract. Both dependent PRs
are now updated and restacked; the finding is resolved and review is
running again.
- Initial extraction retained a consumer-only import in one server
suite. That suite failed to load. The consumer case and import were
moved out; the final three server files passed all 103 cases.
- Earlier panel-specific head `6137c50bc` had green CI and standard/Apex
5/5. Those scores do not qualify this revised activity contract. Fresh
CI and reviews are pending. Earlier combined results in the archive
apply only to their recorded source revisions.

## Risks

This change is additive. It adds no route, publisher, filesystem
transport, provider sandbox grant, or panel display behavior. Activation
hints grant no permission to read a plugin view. Provider identities
bind the changed protocol source; historical identities remain
decode-only. No schema migration or dependency change is required.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip c57af3c564 Reuse prepared Runner storage and installed skill selections (#18089)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/207/changes/paperclip/207
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - The native Runner prepares selected skills, instructions, and
provider storage.
> - Repeated preparation imports the company skill inventory and
rebuilds Claude storage.
> - Execution environments can already maintain prepared resources.
> - This pull request lets them reuse account storage while Core keeps
execution policy.
> - New retry runs resolve current skills and keep the failed attempt's
history.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Native Runner preparation and retry skill selection.

**Current behavior**

Explicit installed selections still trigger company inventory
reconciliation. Plugin preparation receives account identity only on
warm transitions. Claude's isolated mode requires a session-specific
configuration directory.

**Proposed behavior**

Skip inventory imports when explicit selections are installed, while
retaining current authorization and version resolution. Send account
identity on initial preparation. Allow an execution environment to
provide persistent Claude storage without enabling preconfigured
permission behavior. A new retry resolves current skill assignments.

**Reason and benefit**

Remove repeated preparation work without adding environment-specific
policy to Core. Related: #13984 describes a similar storage-lifetime
problem in the separate claude_local adapter; this PR does not change
that adapter.

## What Changed

- Derive Claude’s configuration path from the single authoritative
prepared-storage input; separately supplied CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR values are
overridden.
- Add an explicit prepared Claude storage binding, forward it to the
sidecar, and retain recovery and provider lifetime fencing.
- Refresh Core-owned Claude settings after acquiring the lifetime lease.
Reuse environment-prepared skills.
- Reuse installed explicit skill selections and preserve
missing-selection initialization and current access checks.
- Reserve the prepared-home marker for environment provisioning; task
overrides are rejected and configured bindings are stripped before
native launch.
- Clear inherited skill selection snapshots on new retries. Keep
admitted execution recovery and failed attempt metadata.

## Verification

- Current single-input follow-up `8dbc2f6ec`: 154 focused Runner checks
pass with one existing skip; four Grok identity checks and four Pi
packaged-probe checks pass. Shared immutable source identities advance
to Grok10/Pi32/Copilot74. All56 current-head CI checks pass (four
intentionally skipped); standard and enhanced reviews are both5/5 with
no unresolved threads.
- Focused Runner sandbox tests: 29 passed. Focused environment tests: 16
passed.
- company-skills-empty-runtime: 10 passed.
- Plugin Runner and runtime selection database tests were attempted.
Local execution is blocked because embedded PostgreSQL cannot load
libzstd.1.dylib; these checks remain for CI.
- New database regressions cover installed-selection reuse, initial
account preparation, and retry snapshot removal.
- Prepared-home trust-boundary regressions: 4 targeted checks passed
(task schema, all env binding scopes, native executor).
- Focused Pi public-install probe checks: 4 passed. The build smoke
probe now asserts the current Pi 32 profile and exact digest.
- CI found and fixed retry-context TypeScript inference, stale Pi
identity fixtures, Docker source identity inputs, and the
skill-observability test’s old assumption that every selection imports
inventory. Cold and reused selection coverage remain.
- CI chat shard 2 initially failed three GitHub/Discord idle-database
assertions. An unchanged-head rerun passed; the original cause remains
unexplained.
- Runtime head `f5b53679a` passes all 56 current CI checks (four jobs
intentionally skipped), including the full build/public-install probe,
TypeScript, Rust, Runner and server matrices. Greptile is 5/5 with no
unresolved review threads.
- The requested enhanced review scored 5/5 on `f5b53679a`, with one
nonblocking documentation request. Documentation follow-up `1ac5d26a8`
adds only the documented existing ownership/0700 requirement; the thread
is resolved and all 56 current-head checks pass (four intentionally
skipped). The subsequent single-input runtime follow-up8dbc2f6ec
repeated the complete CI → standard5/5 → enhanced5/5 cycle successfully.
- Broader verification is delegated to GitHub CI as requested. The
initial policy check rejected a generated lockfile repair; that change
was removed because Core CI already resolves stale importer entries.

## Risks

Prepared storage must be provisioned by the execution environment before
launch. It is not credential isolation. Core replaces managed Claude
settings under the existing provider lease. No new per-run harness homes
are created by this option. New retries may select a newer skill
version; recovery of an already admitted provider execution keeps its
saved input.

DottaandPaperclip 356c7de9b7 fix(runner): bind Grok packs to current admission source (#17972)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their work.
> - Native agents use verified Runner and provider-pack artifacts.
> - A protected installed pack can be reused when its selected provider
profile matches.
> - Grok kept profile 1 when its sidecar gained effort, search, and
startup diagnostics.
> - An older Grok sidecar can therefore pass compatibility and reject
the new session fields before provider startup.
> - This PR binds the current Grok profile to its admission source so a
fresh run selects the current verified pack.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #17922, #17942, #17962. Related installation contract: #14024. No
duplicate repair was found.

**What happened?**

The selected Grok profile digest stayed unchanged across native session
contract changes. The installed-pack verifier correctly compared that
digest, but the unchanged value let a pre-effort sidecar satisfy a
current controller. That old parser rejects `grokEffort` and
`grokDisableWebSearch` before the new startup diagnostics run.

**Expected behavior**

A fresh Grok run must use a pack that supports its current session
contract. Source-only app changes must still permit warm reuse when the
selected Grok profile matches. Reattachment must keep its exact admitted
artifact authority.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Retain a protected pack with published Grok profile 1 and ACPX
interface 1.
2. Upgrade the controller to the native effort and search contract.
3. Start Grok 4.7 with High effort and disabled web search.
4. The old profile passes installed-pack compatibility, but its sidecar
rejects the new fields.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced from master at `09ad9adce2cf4742944353a3707a2f908e9bb35e`.

## What Changed

- Advance Grok to profile 7. Keep historical versions 1–6 decodable and
keep the Grok 1.0.13 runtime pin.
- Stamp the Grok admission source identity into a generated launcher
comment. Keep the existing physical command-byte digest check unchanged.
Bind effort/search/credential handling, sidecar admission, and Rust
backend/session/diagnostic source.
- Check the source attestation in the existing TypeScript/Rust profile
build gate. Keep its required fixture in the Docker context. Refuse to
overwrite a versioned identity after source changes.
- Add regression coverage for rejecting the old pack, current-profile
warm reuse, exact historical recovery authority, and actual sidecar
dispatch of Grok 4.7 High with both search policies.
- Re-attest Copilot as profile 71 because its bound shared recovery
decoder now retains Grok 6. Preserve Copilot 70 and all earlier
identities. Keep the compatibility algorithm, other provider identities,
dependencies, lockfile, and workflows unchanged.

## Verification

- The production installed-pack regression failed before the profile
update: the old Grok pack was accepted. It now passes.
- 105 server manifest, artifact, archive, and authority tests passed.
- 246 Runner profile, physical launcher integrity, Grok
effort/search/credential, and actual sidecar process tests passed; six
existing platform cases were skipped.
- 31 Node packaging and identity tests passed, including an actual
generator CLI regression that preserves all authority files when a
versioned identity would change.
- 55 Rust ACPX unit tests and 17 real sidecar pipe tests passed. After
the final profile declaration, all 55 unit checks passed again.
- Final `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed at the final source.
- CI on the preceding head caught Copilot’s stale attestation for the
shared recovery decoder. The same current-source test failed locally,
then passed after profile 71 was generated with version 70 retained. All
106 affected Copilot/profile checks pass. Final head
`78e6d76fc52f492371e15574482b3641735a6d89` passed the full CI workflow;
the failed prior job log is retained.
- Review follow-up: mutating the Rust backend’s actual Grok descriptor
field left the prior identity unchanged. This regression failed before
binding `acpx_provider_backend.rs` and passes afterward. Profile 7
retains the prior versioned fixture and recovery decoder. All 179
affected Runner checks and 75 focused server pack/manifest checks passed
after this change.
- `pnpm test:run` hit the recorded embedded PostgreSQL bootstrap failure
after five attempts. The full run also exposed a current-release fixture
with the historical Grok digest; it now reads the current profile. Its
11 focused manifest tests now pass. The failed local run log is
retained; final exact-head CI passed.
- The same filtered-context Docker build that failed CI now passes
locally after adding its required source fixture.
- A separate probe used the built sidecar in a private HOME with no
credentials. It admitted the current profile and the new Grok fields,
then returned the closed working-directory rejection before provider
launch or inference.
- A historical parser probe reproduced the pre-effort sidecar rejection.
These probes establish the contract boundary; they do not establish
native subscription task acceptance.
- Initial restricted local ownership tests failed because loopback
listeners were denied. The same tests passed with loopback access. One
new dispatcher fixture first lacked required instructions; the completed
request passed. These setup failures are retained in local evidence.
- Live native task acceptance remains pending deployment. Earlier
deployed attempts failed before tool output. No successful native shell
proof is claimed.

- Final exact-head merge gate: all 62 contexts are clean (57 success,
four intentional skips, one informational neutral formal review).
Greptile and Paperclip reviews are both 5/5, with no unresolved
actionable threads. The formal review uses the existing report-only
neutral policy.

## Risks

- The first fresh Grok run after upgrade may need to stage the current
provider pack. Matching current profiles keep their existing reuse path.
- Fresh admission rejects older Grok profile identities. Historical
decoding and exact reattachment authority remain separate; this change
does not reinterpret an old identity or replace an active session's
pack.
- Future changes to bound source require a new Grok profile attestation.
The build gate fails if the checked-in identity is stale.
- Model, effort, search, credential, approval, and retry policy are
unchanged.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 09ad9adce2 feat(server): adopt running remote agents through durable controller checkpoints (#17439)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip must keep admitted remote work alive while its main server
is replaced.
> - Runner owns recovery mechanics and exposes opaque checkpoints
through #17097.
> - The server owns company scope, encryption, Stop, tool authority and
execution ownership.
> - A successor must prove current ownership before it adopts the
original execution.
> - Checkpoint bursts must also leave capacity for normal requests and
lease renewal.
> - This PR persists and adopts that authority through the existing
runtime boundaries.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Remote agents retain the original execution during a bounded main-server
outage.

**Current behavior**

A server restart can lose the controller's local state and connection.
An unsafe replacement could repeat a turn or an uncertain mutation.
Checkpoint writes in the request pool can also delay ordinary requests
during an aligned burst.

**Proposed behavior**

Restore encrypted control records from Postgres and adopt the original
runner under a fenced lease. Recover known tool receipts through current
tool authority. Give control checkpoints a shared pool capped at two
connections per database owner.

Depends on #17097. Successors are #17455 and #17456. Qualification and
presentation remain separate review slices.

## What Changed

- Add company/run-bound encrypted checkpoint records and migration 0394.
Keep the SQL idempotent after renumbering against current master.
- Recover startup and expired ownership through native runtime and
heartbeat. Preserve the sandbox lease, admitted runner artifact, harness
configuration, native session and active turn.
- Keep Stop, finalization, preparation ownership and stale-writer
fencing transactional. Preserve graceful detach and natural crash
takeover.
- Recover committed tool receipts through the existing authority.
Reauthorize reads and hold uncertain mutations.
- Bound startup retention with the existing coordinator and preserve
zero idle scans.
- Share at most two checkpoint connections per database client. Keep
application and liveness capacity separate. Close the checkpoint pool
during shutdown; late writes cannot reopen it.
- Count SQL across both application and checkpoint clients. Prove
request/liveness progress, command recovery and failure after pool
shutdown with real Postgres.

## Verification

Project creation recovery now uses the existing project activity receipt
owner. It retains authenticated input normalization, fingerprint checks
and current run authority after the receipt lock. An absent receipt
returns no result before mutation. The new lost-HTTP-response and
no-effect regression uses real API routes and Postgres. The seven
transport cases pass locally. This Mac skips all 20 database cases. On
current source `5de803c2cd`, Linux [job
122593415890](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40620576702/job/122593415890)
executes all 20 project-tool cases successfully (9.480 seconds),
including the committed-project lost-response regression. Its shard
passes 1,627 cases with three unrelated skips. Server typecheck passes.
The transport regression initially has two failures; a subsequent
incorrect expectation about schema defaults was corrected before the
final pass. Ordinary execution adds no checkpoint writes or recurring
work.

Current candidate `5de803c2cd` includes the project-creation receipt
recovery fix and master `2cd747d1b6`. Migration 0394 retains the prior
idempotent checkpoint DDL. Every master SQL file and journal entry is
preserved. Snapshots 0390–0394, migration checks and server typecheck
pass.

The ordinary warm-turn regression fails on its second turn before
`a219ab51ad`. After correction, three completed warm turns select the
correct prior checkpoint and preserve the original session. All 288
provider-wiring cases pass. The control plane, external persistence
callback, identity rotation and filesystem are real; the backend and
database-load seam are scripted. The 13 warm admission/configuration
variants also pass after final master integration. This does not qualify
an underlying harness.

At current source `5de803c2cd`, Linux [job
122593415907](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40620576702/job/122593415907)
passes all 940 native-session-executor cases (61.431 seconds), including
the warm external-checkpoint behavior; the shard passes 2,358 cases with
one skip. Current [Runner job
122593415475](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40620576702/job/122593415475)
passes the native recovery lane: 115 passes and five container-only
skips, including the encrypted restore guard, fresh preparation (63.189
seconds), blocked claim lock (1.226 seconds) and recovery beyond 101
blocked owners (3.897 seconds). The first lane passes 2,215 cases with
one skip. The SQL cost test reports zero idle and streaming SQL for both
output volumes; this is component evidence, not a production capacity
claim. At prior candidate `1ff7bb44f4`, Linux job 122549307215 passes
all 938 native-executor cases, including the three-turn
external-checkpoint regression. Job 122549306469 passes the native
recovery lane with 115 passes and five container-only skips, including
the encrypted-restore session guard, fresh preparation (63.664 seconds),
claim-lock contention (3.961 seconds), and 101-owner recovery (3.824
seconds). This Mac skips the real-Postgres suite. The earlier full local
executor attempt has 921 passes and 16 failures during embedded-Postgres
initialization before assertions. The original fixture collisions and
their corrections remain recorded.

At earlier candidate `8fbe62b41d`, server shard job 122535673841 has
3,876 passes, one failure and one skip in an unchanged expiry-worker
retry/drain timing test. The same server/database tree on qualification
source `b64cac6951` passes all 20 expiry cases and all 3,877 shard
cases. The single diagnostic retry, job 122541891915, passes all 20
expiry cases and all 3,877 shard cases (one skip). No assertion was
weakened. The original failure remains recorded and its exact timing
race is not proven. All Actions checks and legacy status passed on
`8fbe62b41d`, with completed Greptile 5/5 and no open feedback. The next
candidate `1ff7bb44f4` also passed all Actions checks and Greptile 5/5.
Its Paperclip Review remained queued before the new master conflict
required integration. The new candidate needs fresh exact-head CI and
reviews; old checks do not qualify it. Migration generation is
checkpoint-only, all master SQL and journal entries remain unchanged,
and migration checks, server typecheck and all 13 warm-owner variants
pass after integration. The first migration check was blocked by TSX
sandbox IPC; its permitted repeat passes. The first warm-test command
used an incorrect path and ran no tests; the corrected command supplies
the 13-case receipt.

All 16 database pool-lifetime/options/teardown cases pass after granting
loopback permission; the first batch had two EPERM failures and 14
passes. Earlier semantic-tool/HTTP recovery, adoption, encryption-batch,
zero-streaming-write and idle-SQL receipts remain source-attributed in
the [qualification
record](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/2ff66f57da0da35bac1c19a2366ea4b84d87a986/doc/plans/2026-10-22-hot-upgrade-qualification.md).
That record retains earlier assertion, setup and cleanup failures and
their corrections. No failed gate is waived.

The historical 300-session component campaign passes four after phases:
steady read p99 is 107–108 ms at 500 reads/s and 100 writes/s;
aligned-burst read p99 is 103–105 ms after the bounded pool, versus
584–689 ms before. This comparison isolates the persistence corrections.
It does not measure the final stack's hosted active-agent capacity. The
hosted zero-agent API pair leaves SQL and CPU essentially unchanged, but
both arms fail absolute latency gates and candidate peak cgroup memory
fails its gate. The active-agent/viewer matrix, different-artifact
upgrade and rollback remain open.

Run `PAPERCLIP_TEST_DATABASE_URL=<owned-disposable-postgres> pnpm
--filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`.

Previous head `f2db8a6568` had one failed workspace setup gate: [job
122555672441](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40608984238/job/122555672441)
passes all 4,169 UI tests and 285 CLI cases (one skip), but the company
import/export suite reaches its 30-second health deadline during doctor
startup. Its output does not reach the server-start step. The CLI,
server, database, shared, adapter and plugin trees are identical on
qualification source `a866619d7b`, whose [job
122555886663](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40609057937/job/122555886663)
passes that fixture and all 286 CLI cases. The one diagnostic retry,
[job
122561057225](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40608984238/job/122561057225),
passes the formerly failing fixture and all 286 CLI cases. All Actions
checks and legacy status on `f2db8a6568` pass. Its exact-head Greptile
completed at 5/5 with no open feedback. The current integrated head
requires fresh checks and a completed Paperclip Review before merge. The
original failure remains recorded; its exact timing cause is unproven. A
repeated failure requires investigation and repair rather than another
retry.

All current-head CI, legacy status, exact-head completed Greptile 5/5,
resolved feedback and ordinary GitHub merge eligibility remain required
before merge.

The latest integration preserves master’s published Copilot v70 profiles
and every published migration. Checkpoint migration
`0394_conscious_whizzer.sql` was generated with `pnpm db:generate` and
retains the prior idempotent DDL. The Runner vendor rebuild and replay
parity checks pass. Server typecheck and all 13 warm-owner variants pass
after that rebuild. The imported report-lock patch is byte-identical to
master; its intentional patch-context whitespace is retained, and the
feature delta passes whitespace checks. No hosted experiment was run.

## Risks

The pool adds up to two active connections per instance, shared across
agents. Checkpoint delivery can wait behind that bound; it still
requires its commit. Steady component-test Postgres CPU rises by about
1.7 percentage points of a two-CPU allocation. These corrections do not
remove the stack's control and renewal writes. The migration and key
must survive replacement. Fresh-database tests and local load do not
establish different-artifact hosted upgrade or rollback continuity.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools and code
execution. The runtime does not expose a more specific model ID or
context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 0d22e27dc4 fix(runner): preserve closed native startup diagnostics (#17962)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip runs agents through a controlled execution boundary.
> - Native Runner starts ACPX providers through a TypeScript sidecar and
a Rust transport.
> - That transport hides arbitrary provider messages because they can
contain credentials.
> - Grok admission failures currently have no stable code. Other startup
failures can also lose their owning stage.
> - A real native startup failure therefore reports only
`classification=unclassified`, even when the ordinary subscription hello
test succeeds.
> - This pull request preserves fixed failure categories without
forwarding provider text or changing admission policy.
> - The benefit is a useful next diagnostic result before another
functional repair or retry.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17922 and #17942.

**What happened?**

A native Grok session failed before its first tool. Runner assets passed
verification. The Rust rejection discarded the cause because only closed
error codes may cross that boundary. The existing admission guard used
plain errors. Startup errors outside that guard could also lose their
stage.

**Expected behavior**

Report a fixed Grok admission reason, or a fixed startup stage when no
known error code exists. Keep credentials, provider messages, session
IDs, and paths out of the classification. Keep the failure and cleanup
effective.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Have a Grok ACP fixture return a session without its native effort
acknowledgement.
2. Start it through the real ACPX client and pass the failure through
the sidecar classifier.
3. Before this change, the result is `acpx_sidecar_command_failed`. Rust
reduces that to `unclassified`.
4. The same loss occurs for injected sandbox, credential, and runtime
admission failures.

## What Changed

- Give Grok effort admission errors fixed codes for missing
acknowledgement, model or effort mismatch, session mismatch, conflicting
configuration, drift, and invalid protocol use.
- Record closed host startup stages in a private weak map. Preserve the
original error object, cancellation, and resource cleanup.
- Prefer existing known error codes over a fallback stage. Ignore
arbitrary provider-supplied stage properties and messages.
- Map only exact new codes to Rust diagnostic categories. Add real
ACPX-client and sidecar-pipe regressions with secret canaries and
unknown-code controls.
- Bind the changed shared source and new diagnostic modules in Copilot
profile 70. Preserve profile 69 and earlier history.
- Document the diagnostic contract. There are no dependency, lockfile,
workflow, auth, model, permission, or retry-policy changes.

## Verification

- Red before the production change: four TypeScript cases lost the
native reason or host stage. A Rust case returned `unclassified` for the
new closed categories.
- Final focused checks: 320 tests passed: 241 across sidecar
classification, Grok admission, the real ACPX client, recovery, runtime
adapter, and Copilot installation; all 79 host integration tests also
passed in isolation. These include nine startup-stage cases, translated
errors, actual missing Pi skill materialization, missing Copilot/Cursor
credentials, and a missing workspace binding.
- Review follow-up: a translated Copilot rejection lost its stage, and a
real Pi skill-loading failure reported configuration. Both regressions
failed before the two-line repair and pass afterward. Stage recording
now follows provider translation and starts before Pi skill acquisition.
The current unpublished Copilot 70 identity was regenerated.
- Formal review follow-up: missing Copilot and Cursor credentials
reported configuration. Both cases failed before the two-line stage
repair and pass afterward. A missing-workspace case also verifies the
separate binding catch.
- Seven Rust unit checks and 17 sidecar transport integration checks
passed. The pipe checks preserve known categories and reject unknown
suffixes without disclosing the provider message.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed. Rust formatting and the
generated profile/source identity checks passed.
- Host integration history is retained: one complete 73-case host run
passed. Other batches hit credential-port ownership errors in different
existing cases; the four new stage regressions passed. The final 79-case
host run passed after the last review fix. The prior intermittent lease
failures remain recorded and are not claimed fixed here.
- `pnpm test:run` was attempted and stopped after repeated embedded
Postgres bootstrap failures. The same local database failure predates
this change. Full CI must pass before merge.
- A metadata-only probe with pinned Grok 1.0.13, private HOME, synthetic
credentials, a local catalog, and no inference passed fresh Grok
4.7/High admission and cold restore. This is supporting ABI evidence. It
does not prove live subscription execution.
- Initial CI history is retained: server shard 1 failed its unchanged
final rate-limit slot test (two requests allowed instead of one). No
server policy code changed here. The review follow-up requires fresh
full CI; this is not claimed fixed.
- Second CI history is retained: chat shard 2 failed the unchanged Slack
session-sync quiet-queue test (three selects during the quiet window).
The first rate-limit failure did not recur there. No chat or server
policy code changed in this PR. Final head
654bc5aa21 passed all 61 contexts (56
success, four intentional skips, one informational neutral review). Both
final-head reviews are 5/5 with no new findings; the Paperclip app
publishes its completed review as an informational neutral check.
- Live native acceptance is still pending. After deployment, retry the
original bounded task and inspect its actual shell output, exit status,
run result, and saved task state. This PR fixes the evidence gap; it
does not claim the startup incident is resolved.

## Risks

- Shared startup failures can now receive a stage category. The private
weak map cannot import provider-defined fields. Known error codes keep
priority.
- A category could point at the wrong stage. Tests inject failures at
the installation, sandbox, credential, and runtime boundaries. Existing
cancellation and cleanup tests remain in place.
- The Copilot profile identity changes because shared source changes.
Historical identities remain decodable and cannot authorize a current
launch.
- The next live failure may require another functional repair. Admission
remains closed until the requested configuration is verified.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 7a8df30953 fix(runner): admit Grok effort through native session metadata (#17942)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage AI agents for work.
> - Paperclip Runner must preserve each agent's model and thinking
effort.
> - The Grok migration in #17922 passes explicit effort to native
Runner.
> - The pinned Grok 1.0.13 CLI reports native session metadata instead
of standard ACP config options.
> - The standard effort guard rejects that valid session before the
first prompt.
> - This pull request binds model and effort on Grok session open and
verifies the native reply.
> - Restored sessions keep the selected effort instead of reverting to
Grok's default.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/17922

**What happened?**
A migrated Grok 4.7 agent with High effort fails at native session.open
before it can run a tool. Grok 1.0.13 has no standard configOptions
response and rejects session/set_config_option. Its native session
metadata supports the requested model and effort. A cold load also
resets effort to High unless the request supplies it again. The upgrade
banner also calls Grok “Codex”.

**Expected behavior**
The native session must acknowledge the selected model and effort before
a prompt. A cold restore must preserve both values. The upgrade banner
must describe the selected harness accurately.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Upgrade a Grok agent to Paperclip Runner with explicit High effort.
2. Assign a bounded shell task. The pre-fix native session fails during
admission.
3. For the restore case, create a Low native session, close the process,
and load it without effort metadata. The pinned CLI reports High.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Observed at f60ac29cf1 with Grok 1.0.13.

**Deployment mode**
Cloud, with the board operator interface.

## What Changed

- Project the bound model and effort into native Grok session/new,
session/load, and session/resume metadata before transport writes and
observation.
- Require a correlated native acknowledgement with the exact model,
effort, and session identity. Reject conflicting metadata, selection
drift, stale connections, and prompts before admission.
- Connect lazy restored handles through read-only native session
inspection. Keep the existing process ownership and launch snapshot
checks.
- Replace Grok's unsupported standard config setter. Keep the existing
Claude effort path.
- Add behavioral guard cases and a real ACPX client fixture for fresh
and cold Low/High sessions. The fixture resets effort on restore if
metadata is absent, as the pinned CLI does.
- Publish Copilot profile v69 because its source identity includes the
shared runtime adapter. Preserve published v66/v67/v68 bytes and the
reviewed Grok v67 candidate as history. Keep old profiles closed for
launch.
- Explain the native protocol in the Grok Runner guide and use
provider-independent upgrade banner text.

## Verification

- Three native create/load/resume cases failed before the repair. The
pre-fix guard rejected the native metadata reply.
- Seven affected Runner test files: 234 tests passed after the master
merge. These include native Grok admission, the real ACPX transport
fixture, runtime ownership, Claude effort, and profile history.
- The review follow-up extends the same Low/High fixture through a
complete first turn after cold restore. It checks the repeated native
load, original session id, actual response event, and completed turn.
All 127 tests in the three affected Grok/adapter files passed again;
Runner typecheck and source identity checks also passed.
- All 167 existing agent form tests passed. Token gates and diff checks
passed.
- Workspace typecheck passed. Final Runner typecheck and generated
profile checks passed.
- Production `pnpm build` passed, including after the master conflict
resolution. Runner typecheck, profile history checks, and the 234
affected tests passed on the merged source. All 55 Rust ACPX library
tests also passed on the merged source.
- Real pinned Grok 1.0.13 metadata probes reproduced the unsupported
standard setter and native create/load/resume behavior. No model prompt
was sent. An earlier actual ACPX runtime probe passed fresh and cold
Low/High metadata checks. A repeat with an explicitly isolated HOME
failed authentication before session creation, so it does not count as
final live acceptance. The deterministic transport fixture is green; a
deployed shell task remains required.
- `pnpm test:run` did not complete locally. Embedded Postgres failed
during bootstrap after five attempts. This is the same local fixture
limitation recorded for #17922. Fresh PR CI must pass before merge.
- After deployment, retry the original bounded shell task with the saved
Grok 4.7/High configuration. Verify actual tool output, a successful
run, and Done state after reload.

- Final commit `810d84fd19728e7d798989582f26b05f69166db2`: all CI gates
passed. Greptile and the formal Paperclip review both reached 5/5. No
unresolved review threads remain.

## Risks

- This depends on the pinned Grok 1.0.13 native metadata format. Missing
or conflicting replies stop admission instead of silently changing
effort.
- Cold restores must make one read-only native inspection call before
admission. The existing handshake timeout and process ownership checks
still apply.
- The shared adapter changes Copilot's source identity. The new current
profile includes the final source hashes; the prior profile remains
decodable but cannot launch.
- This does not change the Grok CLI version, account selection, search
policy, dependency patch, or lockfile.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. The exact serving model ID and context window are
not exposed in this session. The agent used reasoning, code editing,
shell tools, and browser tools.

DottaandPaperclip 0a08d37aa0 feat(runner): recover controller authority without interrupting execution (#17097)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and owns their business authority.
> - Runner owns execution transport, acknowledgements and replay.
> - A replacement controller must recover that transport without
starting another provider turn.
> - An external store can retain the required control records without
copying streamed text.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

A surviving runner can reconnect to a replacement controller with its
admitted process, session and active turn.

**Current behavior**

Local controller files do not provide recovery on empty replacement
storage. Rewriting those files after an external checkpoint is installed
also blocks normal controller work.

**Proposed behavior**

An optional callback stores opaque checkpoints. The replacement restores
that checkpoint before it constructs the controller. Installing the
callback makes the external store authoritative. Local storage holds a
marker that requires restoration. Consumers without the callback retain
their file journal.

PR 1 of four: #17097 → #17439 → #17455 → #17456. Related work: #17390
and #17361. The pre-split reference remains
`codex/hot-upgrades-reference-2026-10-24`.

## What Changed

- Add opaque checkpoint encoding, restoration, incremental persistence
and authenticated sparse recovery cursors.
- Keep authentication, commands, semantic inputs and lifecycle events
behind their commit barriers. Share semantic-call ownership between live
dispatch and recovery.
- Keep streamed text out of recovery checkpoints. Preserve bounded
retention, original deadlines and admitted process identity.
- Stop normal local journal writes after external persistence is
installed. Fail closed on a local marker until external restoration
occurs. Preserve current master's staged file writes for standalone
consumers.
- Keep provider-native admission and authorization behind adapters.
Preserve historical Copilot attestations and bind the merged launch and
transport sources in v68; preserve published v66 and prior development
identities.
- Add the one-process scripted executor fixture and deterministic
outage, replay, failure and backpressure tests. Add no production test
endpoint or auxiliary process.

## Verification

The completion-recovery correction passes three restart regressions that
fail before its respective transport/driver fixes. All 230
controller/attestation cases, all 302 Codex transport cases in the full
repeat, and all three one-process fixture cases pass. The broader
Codex/Dot/Muse run passes 326 cases and times out one existing mid-goal
case; its isolated retry and complete Codex repeat pass on unchanged
source and binaries. The initial timeout remains recorded. Conformance
and replay parity pass.

Historical v65/v66 attestation bytes remain frozen; v67 binds the
changed transport. The local runner-only API-authority lane passes 2,027
cases but its 47 HTTP cases cannot initialize embedded Postgres on this
Mac. The integrated owned-database HTTP path is verified in PR 2. At
preceding head `0d8d1b8250`, the Actions workflow passes after one retry
of runner-service shutdowns. Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved threads.
The interrupted attempt is retained. All checks on that preceding head
are terminal and green/neutral/skipped.

Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner exec vitest run
src/control-plane/durable-prp-control-plane.test.ts
src/live/runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts --maxWorkers=1` and `node
packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/copilot-profile-identity.mjs --check`.

The [qualification
record](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/hot-upgrades-qualification/doc/plans/2026-10-22-hot-upgrade-qualification.md)
retains exact revisions, failed attempts and qualification limits. The
local cost campaign observes zero hot-path local journal fsync calls. It
does not qualify a native harness or hosted deployment.

Master reconciliation `d5fc443626` preserves the published v66 and prior
development identity bytes and binds the combined transport in v68. All
290 focused runner/profile cases and runner typecheck pass. The first
sandboxed invocation cannot open loopback listeners; the permitted
repeat passes. Fresh CI and Greptile are pending for this updated head.

Current merge candidate `4fb3d1835b` also fixes public-reader
publication before external commit. New held/rejected-write cases fail
before correction and pass afterward. The full controller repeat passes
168 cases. The combined lane passes 390 other
recovery/transport/profile/fixture cases; its first two overlap fixture
failures are retained and corrected to observe callback entry instead of
provisional state. Runner TypeScript build and typecheck pass.
Current-head GitHub Actions is green and Greptile is 5/5 with all
threads resolved. The superseded master-reconciliation CI shutdown
remains recorded.

## Risks

The persistence callback is an acknowledgement barrier. Failure must
stop delivery. A consumer that installs external persistence must
restore its committed checkpoint before restarting; the marker is not a
recovery snapshot. Sparse display recovery does not reconstruct
acknowledged text or repeat execution. This slice has no Postgres
schema, application authorization or browser behavior.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools and code
execution. The runtime does not expose a more specific model ID or
context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip f60ac29cf1 fix(runner): migrate Grok Build with native reasoning effort (#17922)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Harness selection maps supported agents to Paperclip Runner.
> - The native Runner already supports Grok Build, but its migration
mapping excludes Grok.
> - Grok agents also have a thinking-effort setting that the native
execution contract does not carry.
> - This pull request adds the migration path and preserves explicit
Grok effort through startup and resume.
> - Operators can upgrade an existing Grok agent without silently losing
its model, account, or effort.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Existing Grok Build agents have no Runner selector or upgrade action.
Adding only the mapping would route conversion through the Codex
fallback and lose Grok execution semantics. Native execution also
ignores the legacy reasoning-effort field.

**Expected behavior**

A qualified Grok agent can explicitly upgrade. The saved model, account,
instructions, history, and supported effort remain intact. Unsupported
legacy settings fail before saving. The provider must acknowledge the
selected effort before inference.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open the runtime page of an existing Grok Build agent on a qualified
Linux x64 or macOS ARM64 computer.
2. Observe that the Runner selector and upgrade action are absent.
3. Compare the native execution input with the saved legacy
reasoning-effort setting.

Related work: #13882 introduced native Grok Build. #15422 covers the
earlier default-runner work. This change extends the current shared
selection contract.

## What Changed

- Add the Grok harness mapping, qualified platform limits, upgrade
action, and company-scoped computer qualification.
- Translate Grok settings to ACPX without changing the selected account
or explicit model. Resolve the legacy default model to the native
default. Preserve the effective legacy search policy. Reject
incompatible command, argument, permission, and turn-limit settings.
- Add native execution input v10 for explicit Grok effort and search
policy. Preserve historical schemas. Enforce disabled search through
Grok requirements and bind it across startup and recovery.
- Apply and verify ACP `reasoning_effort` before prompting. Bind the
value to provider descriptors, checkpoints, runtime identity, and resume
checks.
- Use the Grok catalog and effort choices in the task composer. Apply
task model and effort overrides while retaining the agent account and
search policy. Update runtime controls, portability/default handling,
documentation, and capability maps.
- Advance Pi and Copilot source attestations for changed shared
transport and recovery code. Keep historical identities intact and
update all Rust integration fixtures.

## Verification

- Migration and review regressions were reproduced before the fixes.
Coverage includes the Grok mapping, default model, explicit effort,
implicit search policy, task overrides, and incompatible legacy
settings. The broad migration, route, immutable-input, and composer
check passed 478 tests. The final catalog and task-input check passed
135 tests.
- Runner startup, recovery, search policy, and profile checks passed 361
tests, with one platform skip. The final source-identity,
search-admission, and transport event-pump check passed 89 tests.
- All 757 Rust workspace tests passed for the broad implementation.
After the final source attestation update, all 55 ACPX profile/session
tests passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed for the implementation.
Server and Runner typecheck passed after the final production change.
Server `tsc --noEmit` passed after the final test-fixture change. Docker
context integrity, token gates, maps, generated protocol data, and
replay goldens passed.
- The v10 startup fixture initially used an ambient local Grok login and
failed on CI. An explicitly empty credential home reproduced all four
failures. The fixture now supplies a synthetic key and a private empty
home. A separate case checks that missing credentials fail closed. All
seven selected Grok v10 and Claude v9 startup cases pass without host
credentials.
- The full local suite could not complete because embedded PostgreSQL
failed before database-backed fixture setup. The broad executor-suite
attempt hit the same limit and was stopped. Neither attempt is counted
as passing. Current-head CI must verify those paths before merge.
- Earlier CI found missing Rust input fields, stale source attestations
and exact fixture pins, a missing Docker context entry, and an outdated
import expectation. Those failures were fixed and checked locally. The
CI logs retain the original failures.
- Different earlier CI runs also failed unchanged cleanup pagination,
device-login timeout, and chat lost-response recovery cases. Later
attempts passed the cleanup and login cases without changes to those
implementations. Their causes remain unproven. The original evidence
remains in [the first
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40563402840),
[the login
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40571128328),
and [the chat
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40573072163).
A passing retry does not establish a root-cause fix.
- Both reviews rate current head
`16fba9b4cdf12bc7945e6628912e79da42959f35` 5/5. All current-head CI
gates pass in [run
40576580699](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40576580699).
All 60 check runs completed cleanly, including the four intentional
skips and the neutral 5/5 Paperclip review. The legacy security status
is successful. No review threads remain unresolved.
- Staging migration and a real shell task are pending deployment. This
PR does not claim full Grok provider qualification. Reviewers can verify
the operator path by upgrading a qualified Grok agent, checking its
saved model and effort, and running a shell task through native
execution.

## Risks

- Explicit effort and search policy require the matching Runner and
sidecar build. Older immutable execution inputs keep their existing
schemas.
- Providers that omit or reject the selected effort fail before a
prompt. Unsupported effort does not fall back silently.
- Existing agents retain their saved runner until an explicit change.
New Grok agents use native execution only on qualified platforms.
- Grok token and cost reporting remain unverified, as before.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact serving model ID and
context-window capacity are not exposed in this session. Used reasoning,
source editing, shell execution, and browser inspection.

3cd3af5d75 Trace native preparation and OpenCode execution phases (#17918)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Each native run prepares its workspace and skills, then starts its
provider.
> - A long preparation span does not show whether inventory refresh, a
cache lock, repository reads, or file checks caused the delay.
> - One hosted run spent 81 seconds in this phase. The same deployed
service and pinned files took 2.55 seconds in a separate diagnostic
process.
> - Another hosted turn spent 69 seconds before its first output. A
matched public-workspace local model replay took 7.64 seconds.
> - We need skill preparation and provider-internal measurements before
choosing another fix.
> - This pull request adds skill spans, a real-service benchmark, and
opt-in filtered provider timing.
> - The benefit is a faster and more precise diagnosis loop.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17620. That PR owns the batched read optimization. This PR adds
diagnostics and does not change its read policy.
Refs #17907. That PR protects long cache lock transactions from the
database idle timeout.

**What happened?**

Native skill configuration can take much longer than matched standalone
resolution. Provider execution also has long gaps with no internal
timings. Existing spans cannot separate inventory refresh, cache
acquisition, repository reads, context loading, Git snapshots, or model
streaming.

**Expected behavior**

An operator-configured trace shows these phases under the existing run
context. Without an OTLP endpoint, the new spans stay off. A local
benchmark can reproduce the service path with real PostgreSQL, files, an
agent actor, and a responsible user.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx
scripts/benchmark-native-skill-preparation.ts --actor=agent
--staging-shape=true`.
2. Inspect cold and warm phase timings, SQL counts, and file
verification results.
3. Set the existing operator OTLP configuration and add
`--export-otlp=true` to inspect the same hierarchy in the collector.

## What Changed

- Add bounded skill inventory, refresh wait, cache acquisition, row,
version, repository, file check, and consumer spans.
- Keep the existing endpoint gate, attribute allowlist, cache locks,
authorization, file validation, and durable pin boundary.
- Add a standalone benchmark with a full repository fixture, immutable
snapshot input, calibrated local transport delay, and optional OTLP
export.
- Verify every delivered file and executable bit outside the timed
section. Create its fixture agent through the lifecycle API.
- Add an opt-in authenticated loopback sink for OpenCode. Discard raw
attributes, logs and content. Retain only closed phase names and
timestamps.
- Carry one bounded diagnostic batch through the real proxy, Rust
normalization, durable journal and server trace projection. Group
provider phases under their execution parent.
- Freeze the Date clock in an existing delegated Slack rate-limit test.
This fixes a CI failure when consecutive requests cross a rate-window
boundary. It does not change rate-limit behavior.
- Document phase boundaries and the difference between SDK startup and
confirmed ingestion.

## Verification

- Skill service, runtime selection, concurrency, cache and timing
suites: 122 tests passed with real PostgreSQL and migrations.
Enabled-span integration tests also passed. They verify parent
relationships and a real advisory-lock timeout.
- A captured 208-file repository produced 209 verified runtime files.
The benchmark uses real agent and responsible-user authorization. The
lifecycle fixture correction passed with the staging-shaped inventory.
- Affected OpenCode driver, collector and transport tests: 72 passed.
The tests cover authentication, content removal, size/count bounds,
disabled behavior and the rebuilt native Runner boundary. One Rust
projection test and 18 server trace tests also passed. A held run-log
sink proves that a full 128-span diagnostic batch adds no duplicate
database writes before terminal consumption.
- The two CI-failing delegated Slack rate-limit cases passed against
real PostgreSQL with only the Date clock frozen.
- Runner TypeScript and server TypeScript checks passed. Rust formatting
and module-boundary checks passed.
- Real Honeycomb readback confirmed the 14-span skill waterfall and a
40-span provider waterfall. Provider phases have the correct execution
parent. The provider export uses synthetic model replies and is
instrumentation proof only.
- Earlier full local checks failed on missing package-local executables,
then on the default Node heap and a missing generated service worker.
The dependency links were repaired. The server check passed with a
larger heap. The full local test attempt could not start embedded
PostgreSQL on this host and was stopped after retaining its failures;
real database coverage uses an isolated database on an existing local
server. These attempts do not count as a full local pass.
- CI on the prior revision passed typecheck, build, Runner and all E2E
shards. It failed the benchmark lifecycle boundary and one existing
rate-window test. Those fixes passed CI. A later Runner assertion
exposed the Copilot source identity pin on the shared transport file.
The diagnostic flag now uses the existing configured-environment
projection, preserving that file byte-for-byte. All 66 selected
installation and native transport tests passed. New-head CI and review
remain required.
- The under-15-second hosted response target remains unmet. This PR adds
diagnostics and does not claim a hosted latency fix.

## Risks

- Skill spans and Honeycomb export retain the operator endpoint gate.
OpenCode phase collection requires a separate explicit diagnostic flag.
Without an endpoint, its closed measurements stay in the instance run
log.
- Raw OpenCode OTLP can contain prompts and authorization attributes.
The new sink rejects unauthenticated requests and discards all
attributes before any measurement reaches PRP or the operator collector.
Request, event and per-phase limits bound memory and journal growth.
- Collection does not wait for a provider flush. Late or oversized
exports can be absent; these measurements are not a complete profiling
guarantee.
- The benchmark's inventory contents and transport delay are explicit
fixtures. They do not reproduce server contention or prove hosted
response time.
- The one durable diagnostic batch remains the local evidence. Its child
span export does not add per-phase run-log rows.
- No database migration, authorization policy, model selection or
inference transport changes. The Rust Runner and OpenCode proxy must be
shipped together for the new opt-in diagnostic.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with repository inspection, shell execution,
browser tools, and Honeycomb queries. The session does not expose a
verifiable backend deployment ID or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 5982246771 fix(server): schedule custom-image setup expiry from committed changes (#17443)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agent work and its execution environments.
> - Interactive image setup sessions must expire even when users leave.
> - The server currently scans these sessions on every maintenance tick.
> - Empty scans keep the instance and database active.
> - Existing session rows already record status and expiry.
> - This pull request uses transaction signals and the shared scheduler
for those rows.
> - Empty and completed setup history no longer create recurring cleanup
queries.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The server checks custom-image setup expiry every heartbeat maintenance
tick, even when no active session exists.

**What did you expect?**

Session writes should update the next cleanup deadline. Existing
provider cancellation and cleanup ownership must remain intact. Empty
state should stay quiet.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run an instance with heartbeat scheduling enabled and no custom-image
setup sessions. Observe repeated setup-expiry reads.

Refs #17145. This is the first PR in the recurring server sleep stack.
Its base is master. The full requested scope and verification contract
are recorded in `doc/plans/2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md`.
Follow-up PRs target their predecessor and each own a separate reason
for recurring work.

## What Changed

- Carry the historical cleanup retry-observation fixture repair and its
existing external test-database hook at the stack foundation. Runtime
scheduling is unchanged.

- Carry the previously verified login-cleanup fixture settlement
correction at the stack foundation so every intermediate CI run receives
it. This is test-only maintenance; custom-image expiry behavior is
unchanged.

- Add a custom-image expiry worker to the existing delivery coordinator.
Remove its maintenance-tick scan.
- Signal initial creation, provider refresh, cancellation/failure, and
promotion inside their owning transaction.
- Keep the active-status predicate, earliest saved expiry, and provider
behavior in the custom-image service. Shared code gains only a queue
topic.
- Preserve startup recovery, bounded retries, concurrent write
generations, and drain deferral. No tables or external alarm changes.
- Add PostgreSQL lifecycle tests and repair this suite's database
cleanup callback. A dedicated external test URL permits disposable
PostgreSQL when the host cannot start another embedded cluster.

## Verification

Current head: `3507c6be1e054fdd93353d5dcf77d4899b44518f`. This remains a
single-duty PR stacked on master.

- Integrated pinned master `8548173fc9efdc0fa07644fb92dcc0b6851a95e5`
with normal merges. Every branch passed generated-schema checks and its
target-branch migration-order gate. Existing SQL is unchanged; the 25
stack migrations follow master’s new migration.
- Duty-specific producer coverage, lifecycle tests, and earlier failure
records:
[2026-10-08-instance-sleep-and-scheduler-inventory.md](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/3507c6be1e054fdd93353d5dcf77d4899b44518f/doc/plans/2026-10-08-instance-sleep-and-scheduler-inventory.md),
[2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/3507c6be1e054fdd93353d5dcf77d4899b44518f/doc/plans/2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md).
- Combined tip `51e6cbe67979b55b340ea9f0f434c5b5c682ccd6`: **355
startup/cancellation/recovery/dispatch/preservation tests**, **75
connection-management tests**, and production server typechecking pass.
These combined checks do not mean every intermediate PR independently
ran the full repository suite.
- Real master-to-stack database upgrade passes: **379 unchanged prior
migration receipts plus 25 new migrations**, with the gateway
responsibility fixture preserved.
- Owning-branch checks: 84 runner installation/settlement cases plus
runner typechecking and generated TypeScript/Rust profile agreement; 253
GitHub review workflow cases. Stop-attribution and held-worker readiness
regressions failed before their fixes.
- Failure accounting: the initial combined run passed 349 cases and
failed six idle assertions in a reused preservation database containing
old cancelled runs. Repeating the combined command with a fresh
preservation database passed. Earlier invalid project selection, merge
import/type errors, and the interrupted full local suite are not counted
as passing checks.
- **Latest-head CI and review remain required.** Prior CI findings
include GitHub idle observation, route teardown, attention cleanup,
touch-picker E2E, workspace health, and voice-cleanup timing; local
passes do not erase those failures. No full local repository-suite,
deployed sleep, fleet cost, or live Copilot qualification claim is made.

## Risks

- Signals cover supported service producers sharing the DB owner.
Independent SQL and another process require the existing
restart/reconciliation contract.
- Failed provider cancellation retains the existing failed-session and
historical-cleanup behavior. This PR changes scheduling, not teardown
authority.
- Active rows without an expiry preserve the existing behavior; no
deadline is invented. Cloud sleep eligibility remains conservative.
- The worker remains in the existing heartbeat-enabled startup path. It
does not change disabled-scheduler behavior or prove deployed
suspension.

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning and code execution. The exact
serving model identifier and context window were not exposed.

Review follow-up: Added a real producer commit during a paused deadline
read. Updated startup assertions for coordinator ownership and removed
added code comments. The three affected suites pass (102 tests). The
separate login-cleanup suite also passes locally (16 tests); its prior
CI consume test timed out, and the fresh complete CI run passed.
External PostgreSQL tests now use the repository guard for disposable
databases ending in `_test`.

DottaandPaperclip db70c5acd9 fix(runner): retain startup Stop and exhaust reconnect recovery (#17812)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators must be able to stop a remote runner while it starts.
> - Remote artifact staging can finish after the transport's bounded
cleanup wait.
> - The launcher discarded an early Stop request and could dispatch
after staging.
> - A separate path missed the runner's plain-text reconnect expiry
receipt.
> - This change retains startup cancellation and ends an exhausted
reconnect incident.
> - Public package imports and a source-bound profile keep the
regressions buildable and admission checks intact.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related work: Refs #16835, Refs #16843, Refs #16855.

**What happened?**

The HTTP Stop route returned 200 and recorded a cancelled run. After
bounded bootstrap cleanup, releasing artifact staging still dispatched
one launch RPC. A separate reconnect test accepted a replacement after
the runner reported that its grace period had expired.

The first PR head also failed CI. The HTTP regression imported Runner
source across the server TypeScript boundary. Its event receipt mock
read a field that is not present on both event forms. The changed
transport also invalidated the pinned Copilot source identity.

**Expected behavior**

A cancelled launch must remain cancelled after staging. An exhausted
reconnect receipt must end that incident. Regression tests must use
public package contracts. The source identity must cover the changed
transport without replacing historical profile bytes.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Hold the remote launcher's artifact staging promise.
2. Call the board Stop route and let bootstrap cleanup reach its
preparation deadline.
3. Release staging and count launch RPCs.
4. For reconnect expiry, end an owned runner with its coded or
plain-text expiry message.
5. Run the server typecheck and the Copilot profile identity check.

## What Changed

- Retain cancellation through staging, trace publication and an
in-flight launch RPC.
- Apply a deferred signal through the existing identity checks when the
launch identity arrives.
- Preserve an earlier KILL request when a later TERM request arrives.
- Recognize both coded and plain-text reconnect expiry receipts.
- Test the real board Stop route and heartbeat cancellation with
PostgreSQL. Use public Runner exports and handle both event receipt
forms.
- Generate source-bound Copilot profile v65 after integrating current
master. Preserve exact published v62, v63 and v64 fixtures, retain the
earlier v63 reconnect candidate as historical evidence, and reject
historical profiles for a current launch.
- Document process evidence, retained uncertainty and the limits of
cleanup and continuation evidence.

## Verification

- At current integration head
`2b96ee3adcb3be642c538436113e1159d92f843d`, launcher and HTTP Stop
regressions: 21 passed. This includes the existing process-generation
and exact-exit safety cases on the integrated base. The HTTP case
includes bootstrap expiry; it is not isolated Stop-only settlement
proof.
- At current integration head, reconnect expiry regressions: 2 passed,
for coded and plain-text receipts.
- At current integration head
`2b96ee3adcb3be642c538436113e1159d92f843d`, the Copilot installation and
identity suite passed all 63 tests and the canonical generator check
passed. Before regeneration, the merged-tree admission test failed with
a transport source hash mismatch and the generator reported a stale
identity. Published v62, v63 and v64 bytes remain unchanged; the prior
reconnect candidate is preserved separately. The v62 fixture SHA-256
remains
`faa4d1b35267b54e134a8e0c84586fe1196d8fad5525cb53aa195aae53ca6e83`.
- Current integration head passed all 86 focused tests, the full
recursive repository typecheck and the root repository build. The normal
server typecheck also passed, including its full Runner release rebuild.
- Historical full recursive repository typecheck and the root repository
build passed at `187bb85b4fa1fbd2ffaec992650a1c8557df9ebe`. Server
typecheck also passed through the normal package script and a direct
full server TypeScript check. The prerequisite full Runner release build
passed.
- The historical HTTP baseline returned 200 and dispatched one late
launch RPC. The repair returned 200 and dispatched zero in the bounded
fixture.
- Earlier failures remain part of the evidence: the first head failed
TypeScript package boundaries and source identity. One local HTTP run
failed before migrations; it passed after the disposable test database
received normal migrations. Earlier sandbox-wide checks ran out of
memory or lacked Cargo. Those runs did not pass.
- Historical head `187bb85b4fa1fbd2ffaec992650a1c8557df9ebe` received
Greptile 5/5 with no actionable findings and all hosted gates passed in
run `40412261957`: 53 successful check runs, four expected skips and a
successful legacy Snyk status. Those results predate the master
integration and do not establish current-head readiness.
- Current integration head `2b96ee3adcb3be642c538436113e1159d92f843d`
includes master `bd382eee536f4ada680072b1cc19100163c3d04a`. All
current-head hosted gates passed in run `40512885858`: 53 successful
check runs, four expected skips and a successful legacy Snyk status,
with zero pending or failed checks. Build passed at 13:42:36 UTC and the
final `ci / verify` aggregate (job `122224566238`) passed at 13:43:00
UTC on 2026-10-27. Greptile reviewed exact head
`2b96ee3adcb3be642c538436113e1159d92f843d` at 5/5 (updated 2026-10-27
13:36:41 UTC), with no actionable findings and no open inline threads.
The hosted partitions passed full-suite verification, including browser
and release gates. The wider qualification limits below remain in force.
- Local setup on current master initially failed frozen install with
`ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH` because `patchedDependencies`
differs from the lockfile. Pinned pnpm 9.15.4 hydrated dependencies with
`--no-frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts`; its generated lockfile change
was restored. This PR changes no lockfile or workflow.
- Reproduce the Stop tests from `server`: `pnpm exec vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts -t 'remote
runner process supervision|HTTP Stop during remote runner staging'`. The
test accepts a guarded disposable `_test` database through
`PAPERCLIP_TEST_DATABASE_URL`, or starts its normal embedded database.
- Reproduce reconnect tests from `packages/paperclip-runner`: `pnpm exec
vitest run src/live/runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts -t 'does not restart
an exhausted reconnect'`. Build the normal test runner first.
- Reproduce profile checks from `packages/paperclip-runner`: `node
scripts/copilot-profile-identity.mjs --check` and `pnpm exec vitest run
src/drivers/acpx/copilot-installation.test.ts`.

## Risks

- The wider qualification is incomplete. Verified-stopped replacement
and concurrent recovery plus Stop each entered two physical provider
processes. Both fail the original requirement of at most one physical
provider entry. Passing fixture assertions do not make all incident
scenarios accepted.
- HTTP concurrent recovery, shared provider-attempt accounting,
server-admitted restored continuation, live-provider behavior and
product cleanup settlement remain unrun or unproved.
- Accepting a deferred signal is not proof that a dispatched process
stopped. The existing monitor remains authoritative.
- The HTTP test uses the real route, heartbeat cancellation and
PostgreSQL state. Execution lease and event ports, plus the launch RPC,
are controlled fixtures. Bootstrap expiry participates in this case.
- The local incident matrix uses an installed runner binary and a
scripted provider. It does not qualify a live provider. Local fixture
teardown does not certify product cleanup settlement.
- This change does not authorize historical turn replay. It does not
change ownership, pause, approval or provider-attempt gates.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The runtime does not expose the exact
serving model ID or context-window size. The agent used reasoning,
repository inspection, shell execution and connected GitHub tools.

DottaandPaperclip 13709b4c7a feat(connections): let agents configure connections within delegated authority (#17737)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections provide governed tools, chat channels, model accounts,
and gateways.
> - Several management routes require a human board actor even when an
agent has the required grant.
> - Default agents must configure these resources within the responsible
user's authority.
> - This pull request adds a shared authorization path to the existing
REST and native API surface.
> - Human authentication, execution approvals, and local host boundaries
remain enforced.
> - The benefit is that a standard agent can complete authorized setup
with a bounded human handoff.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server authorization, connection services, shared contracts, native API
discovery, database schema.

**Problem or motivation**

Connection administration is available in the web app but often
unavailable to agents. Agent grants, responsible-user authority,
credential ownership, and actor attribution need separate checks.
Opening gateway-token creation also requires preserving the issuing
agent's delegated authority during token use.

**Proposed solution**

Use the existing authorization evaluator for every connection family.
Enforce current responsible-user authority, effective trust, grant
scope, resource visibility, and target-agent access. Keep existing agent
grants unchanged. Expose authorized configuration through default
`search_api` and `call_api`. Save human authentication steps and let
agents continue after completion.

**Roadmap alignment**

This change completes the API access path for the existing Connected
Apps, Personal & Shared AI Accounts, and governed MCP Gateway
capabilities in `ROADMAP.md`. It follows the maintainer's requested
design. Related work: #11899 enforces connection execution access and
creator/manager rules; this PR extends agent management across
connection families. It does not replace that execution-policy work.

## What Changed

- Add shared connection management context and mandatory
responsible-user, trust, scope, and target checks.
- Allow authorized agents to configure tool, chat/email, GitHub/Slack,
AI, profile, and gateway resources through existing routes.
- Preserve human credential ownership and record the actual agent,
responsible user, and run or key in audit data.
- Preserve saved browser authentication handoffs and callback session
checks.
- Bind agent-issued durable gateway tokens to their responsible user and
recheck delegated authority at use.
- Add explicit REST transport and management capability metadata,
built-in guidance, and sensitive-response handling.
- Intersect caller and endpoint-agent Slack test/invitation policies,
including independent and shared rates. Require the addressed human’s
current endpoint identity link before completing identity handoffs.
- Add production-authenticated integration scenarios. Companion #17739
contains the saved setup UI (including the required human
import/rotation step), product and permission documentation,
catalog/Vercel credential and callback ownership, and operation maps to
keep each review below 100 files. Both PRs must ship together; merge
this implementation first, then its companion.

## Verification

- Current implementation head:
`2ecd6451d0d0c8d82121a4e3fa4ce94c5befbbd6`, including master
`ea727dc3c2`, 99 files. The latest follow-up fixes the two valid
findings from the preceding f9 review. Exact-head Greptile has completed
at5/5 with no findings and Superagent passed. Full exact-head Linux CI
workflow40446606056 completed SUCCESS; only the queued external
Paperclip Review remains pending; earlier Linux passes do not qualify
this successor.
- Latest preserved-stack verification passed **2,165 tests** in fresh
PostgreSQL: **70 actual-auth scenarios**, 27 OpenAPI contracts, 2,022
native API tests and 46 saved GitHub wizard cases. **141 existing
gateway/policy acceptance tests** also passed. Workspace
typecheck/build, maps and token gates passed. The first workspace
typecheck was blocked by sandbox tsx IPC permissions; its authorized
rerun passed. This is focused local evidence; the full Linux CI matrix
is still required.
- Issuer/target gateway policy regressions were red before the fix. Both
decisions now intersect, including Block/Ask first/rates, same
credential identity and current token/user/agent authority after
approval. Invocations retain their token and actual requesting agent;
deleted tokens fail closed. Thirteen actual-auth cases cover revocation,
narrowed scope, approvals, shared rates and board compatibility.
Intermediate missing-token attribution, review-context and
implicit-session actor failures remain in the qualification record; all
final cases pass.
- Activity pagination now retains a bounded cursor across private-only
windows. The actual-JWT regression reaches three older readable events
after 27 private ones without exposing private details. A native
device-login regression was red for plaintext receipts; local check and
test-call results now use existing protected-response handling. The
passing actual-auth case proves encrypted persistence, exact replay,
redacted history and no response asset.

- Previous-head `5b55195593` Linux CI initially failed e2e shard 4/8 in
the existing connection-intent continuation test: periodic recovery
queued a repair at 01:21:47, the scripted journey completed the task at
01:21:48, and the extra queued run was cancelled at 01:21:49 because the
task was terminal. The assertion selected that latest cancelled run.
GitHub refused the first attempt while the workflow was nonterminal.
After completion, the single evidence-supported failed-job rerun was
accepted as **attempt 2** on the same head (workflow 40431202466). The
failed shard and final E2E aggregate passed on attempt 2, and the
complete Linux workflow for that head is successful. The original
failure remains part of qualification. No additional unchanged-code
rerun will be used for this failure.

- Companion CI also has an unchanged login-cleanup idleness timeout,
retained in its qualification record. That same 16-case suite passed in
this parent Linux run and a fresh local database. Both preceding
workflows passed after their single failed-job reruns as attempt 2; the
original failures remain recorded. No additional unchanged-code rerun
was used.

- Migration `0380_broken_aqueduct.sql` was regenerated through the
repository workflow after master took 0379 for project Git
authorization. It adds the responsible-user column with `IF NOT EXISTS`,
preserves upstream migrations, and satisfies snapshot retention and
migration safety checks.
- Upstream published Copilot v62 and v63 identities remain byte-for-byte
unchanged. The combined guidance is now v64, digest
`sha256:22e31f95ef972bcead98a4a707c9f33433558fd111e390e027a2bbb4346e112a`.
The normal shared TypeScript/Rust identity check and **61 Copilot
installation tests passed**. The old source-identity assertion first
failed against unchanged published v63; regenerating a new v64 preserves
the published release.
- Workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`, map validation, and UI
token gates passed on the final combined stack after the upstream merge.
Node 24.22.1 / pnpm 9.15.4 were used.
- **Earlier 82 API/OpenAPI tests passed** in fresh PostgreSQL 18: 55
assembled-server scenarios and 27 contracts. They use real persistent
agent keys, run JWTs, human sessions, production defaults, and
deterministic provider fixtures. No actor injection establishes access.
- The new email regression was red before per-account scope filtering.
The Arcade regression was red before human ownership and inventory-key
fixes; it also verifies actual-agent audit identity and a human-session
inventory read. The activity regression measured **200 authorization
checks before the fix and one afterward** for the same one-item page.
- **82 GitHub UI tests passed**, including all three new
failed-replacement regressions that were red before their fix. The UI
preserves an earlier copy only after confirming its committed
generation. Changed or unreadable results block copying and reconnecting
until reconciled. Human-only secret responses now include their
nonsecret committed generation.
- Private test status now rechecks the originating principal and linked
task, including mandatory agent/responsible-user privacy. Cross-agent
tests require the full caller tool access decision and the same
credential identity, regardless of auth label; caller and target
policies/approvals and rate limits apply before execution and after
human approval. A profile-only precondition was found to reject valid
allow-policy and scoped-grant access and has been removed. Both
permitted-access cases and a no-auth-label identity regression were red
before the correction; caller-specific Block still prevents provider
execution. The private-status regression was also red before its fix.
- The tool-activity regression measured 100 capability decisions and 102
run captures on a 100-event page before the fix. It now uses two task
decisions and at most two captures while retaining the same 50 visible
events, private-event filtering, and 403 after audit-grant revocation.
The regression was red before request-context reuse and task-decision
sharing; final server typecheck/build also pass.
- Generic chat configure/reconnect now hands agent-supplied verification
credentials to the addressed human before provider work or vault
changes. Actual key/JWT regressions were red for Slack signing-key
replacement and generic channel secret-reference rebinding. They now
prove unchanged refs and vaulted signing value, human setup, permitted
agent bot-token repair, and governed test messages. All 82 API/OpenAPI
cases pass in fresh PostgreSQL. Eight native receipt protections and
final server typecheck/build also pass.
- The preceding review found that old healthy state could retire a
credential-entry card before a human changed anything. The actual-JWT
regression was red. Saved field generations now change only with
protected values and commit with refs plus a verification fence; retries
retain the baseline. Old health, bot-token repair and unchanged entry
stay pending. New signing verification and current authority permit
continuation. A separate red race proved that user revocation during
provider authentication could return 403 after refs changed; authority
is now checked before persistence and inside the credential transaction.
The final 82 API/OpenAPI cases, four neighboring real-database
Slack/GitHub lifecycle cases, and final server typecheck/build pass.
- A preceding full run crossed a rate-window boundary. Database rows
prove one consumed slot at 23:35 and another at 23:36 for the same
policy/bucket. Only Date is frozen in the rate test cases; transport and
asynchronous timers remain real. Production rate behavior is unchanged,
and the final full run passes. An intermediate fixture failure that
overwrote hidden generation metadata with an API projection is retained
in the qualification record.
- Linux CI on an earlier head found two rate-admission assertions that
omitted the newly persisted bucket key. The failures were reproduced
locally; both assertions now verify the exact actor/tool bucket and all
49 policy-service tests pass. The companion qualification record retains
the initial and intermediate failures. Catalog creator attribution is
preserved in the companion to keep this implementation review at 99
files.
- The latest review reproduced three regressions before repair: complete
human replacements failed on unavailable old signing secrets, fresh
GitHub links incorrectly selected reconnect, and different
credential-entry requests shared an idempotency key. Each old protected
ref now has a narrow known-unavailable fallback; unexpected resolver
failures and company/scope violations still abort. Fresh imports keep
their credential form, configured endpoints keep reconnect, and
canonical field sets/completion modes distinguish handoffs while
matching retries retain their baseline. All 55 actual-auth scenarios and
27 separately run OpenAPI contracts pass, as do server typecheck/build.
Companion #17739 also passes all 41 wizard tests including actual
fresh-form submission, UI typecheck, maps and token gates. Earlier red
results and a mistyped OpenAPI filename are retained in qualification.
- The configured GitHub handoff regression was red in the
browser-component tests and actual-auth link/persistence tests. Saved
links now name requested fields and all/any completion mode; the
companion form submits those supplied fields through reconnect and
retains other saved credentials. Webhook/client-secret reconnect remains
human-only; first-setup secret restrictions remain. All 46 wizard tests
pass, including combined modes and legacy links. A duplicate review
referenced the older companion bf760912; the current form is already
fixed, linked in the reply, and its thread is resolved.
- Linux CI on bf760912 failed automatic Slack provisioning because vault
persistence cleared an already verified manifest-update challenge. The
same regression was reproduced locally. The provider-owned helper now
preserves proof only for the current signing fingerprint and callback
URL. Eight existing compatibility cases pass, including this case and
initial GitHub secret rejection. The first uncommitted GitHub-field
variant also failed that initial boundary and was narrowed to reconnect;
both failures remain in qualification.
- The upstream merge conflicted only in generated migration metadata.
Upstream 0379 is preserved, normal generation/pruning produced 0380, and
two repeated applications of the idempotent additive SQL passed. The
final combined stack passed **128 tests** (55 actual-auth, 27 OpenAPI
and 46 wizard cases) in fresh PostgreSQL. Eight Google UI cases also
pass; the two protocol cases could not initialize embedded PostgreSQL in
this fresh local attempt. Their earlier passing evidence remains
historical; fresh Linux CI must execute them. Vercel personal credential
attribution is preserved in companion #17739 with its other
ownership/consent follow-ups, keeping this PR at 99 files.
- The suite covers fresh defaults, restricted users/agents, scopes,
personal isolation, token revocation, human handoffs, callback replay,
execution approvals, authorized self-targeted policy changes,
self-approval denial, and current authority before commit. Reproduce API
checks with `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/connection-management.integration.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts`, using a fresh database
through `PAPERCLIP_CONNECTION_MANAGEMENT_TEST_DATABASE_URL` or the
default embedded test database.
- Companion #17739 also records consent separately from token refresh so
saved Google choices survive refresh. Its eight service-picker and two
local-HTTP OAuth tests pass; both new UI cases were red before the fix.
Normal migration generation confirms no SQL change is needed for the
additive JSON metadata.
- The integration module shares one assembled server, authentication
factory, and provider lifecycle to preserve the
HTTP-to-vault-to-task-continuation proof. A reused external database
caused a Slack fixture identity conflict; the fresh final run passed.
Earlier fixture/transport and contract-update failures remain in the
companion qualification record.
- The broad local `pnpm test:run` attempt remains blocked by macOS
embedded PostgreSQL's host semaphore limit. It is not a clean pass. The
fresh Linux CI matrix must complete. Provider fixtures do not prove live
setup or an empirical LLM success rate.
- A current-head completed Paperclip assessment is not yet recorded. Its
earlier external recovery boundary has not been bypassed, and no
incomplete assessment is reported as passing. The user authorized both
merges when checks pass; merge this implementation first, then replay,
retarget, and requalify companion #17739 against the squash-merged
master.

- After the master refresh, local workspace typecheck/build, **97
actual-auth/OpenAPI cases** and **141 gateway/policy cases** pass. The
original fixed database port was occupied; Docker assigned a free
localhost port. The first neighbor setup command could not resolve root
`tsx`, leaving its schema uninitialized; the built database package
migrated the separate fixture and all unchanged cases passed. Both setup
failures are retained in qualification. Fresh Linux CI remains required;
no full local test-sweep pass is claimed.

- The f9 Greptile review scored **2/5** for two reproduced findings:
Slack test sends skipped the caller’s tool policy, and healthy App
credentials completed an unconfirmed identity handoff. Both are fixed in
this head and have resolved evidence threads
([Slack](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/17737#discussion_r4384927765),
[identity](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/17737#discussion_r4384927895)).
Actual key/JWT cases cover twelve Slack caller/target/recipient
combinations; the human-session GitHub OAuth callback alone remains
pending until explicit confirmation. All **99 API/OpenAPI tests** (72
actual-auth + 27 contracts), workspace typecheck and build pass. On the
combined companion, all four focused cases (including the twelve Slack
combinations), typecheck/build and maps also pass. The continuation
suite’s 50 embedded-PG cases were skipped because its database could not
start locally; fresh Linux CI must run them. Initial fixture
credential-collision and audit-projection assertion failures are
retained with the red reproductions in the companion qualification
record. No full local sweep or live consent is claimed.

## Risks

- The maintainer explicitly confirmed authorized policy administration,
including self-targeted changes that loosen controls. These writes
require management grants and the responsible user’s current authority.
Agents cannot approve their own governed action requests or edit their
own principal permission grants. The actual-auth regression exercises
both permitted administration and those denials.
- This is a broad authorization change. Incorrect scope or owner
resolution could deny permitted setup or expose another user's
resources. Integration cases cover both permitted and denied requests
with actual authentication.
- The additive nullable gateway-token column does not infer identities
for legacy clients or backfill agent grants. Legacy agent tokens without
a responsible user fail closed.
- Provider fixtures test supported setup and callback contracts. They do
not prove live provider availability.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, and code
execution. The runtime does not expose a more specific deployment ID or
context-window size.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 0cb3fc7db5 fix(runner): retain ACPX transport failure details (#17837)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Paperclip Runner reports provider failures to the execution and
recovery services.
> - Those services read the terminal event's structured `error` field.
> - The ACPX transport-failure path wrote its code and message only at
the top level.
> - The session facade therefore replaced that cause with `error: null`
and the generic message "Provider turn failed".
> - This pull request uses the existing structured error contract while
retaining the old fields.
> - Recovery can retain the actual redacted cause without reopening the
failed provider or assuming a retry is safe.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native ACPX run can lose its failure details between runnerd and the
session facade. The transport-failure producer emits a failed turn with
top-level `code` and `message`. The facade reads `error`. The server
receives a generic provider failure and cannot use the original cause to
explain or classify recovery.

**Expected behavior**

Retain the transport code and redacted cause in the structured terminal
error. Keep failed sessions closed, provider termination unproven, and
automatic replay disabled.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open a native ACPX session and start a turn.
2. Send malformed activity from the sidecar after it acknowledges the
turn.
3. Poll the native provider events.
4. Observe that `turn.failed.error` is absent even though the producer
has a transport code and cause.

Refs: #16366, #17543. Those changes cover legacy process-session
diagnostics and session-ensure errors. This change repairs the native
ACPX polling terminal contract.

## What Changed

- Add the existing transport code and redacted message to the terminal
event's structured `error` field.
- Mark that error as non-recoverable. Keep the previous top-level fields
for existing readers.
- Add a real sidecar fault fixture and a native-provider regression. It
checks one failed terminal, retained error details, a closed session,
and no provider reopening.
- Document the failure contract and verification scope in execution
semantics and the recovery map.

## Verification

- Red: the new fault test failed because the structured transport error
code was null on the original code.
- Green: all 26 native-provider integration tests pass with the fix.
- Three session-facade terminal tests and three native-runtime
provider-failure classification tests pass.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass.
- Hosted test partitions, native Runner checks, typecheck, build,
browser shards and canary passed. Two final aggregate jobs received no
runner for several minutes. The first CI attempt was cancelled after
saving its status, and only those two cancelled jobs were resubmitted.
Both aggregate jobs passed on attempt 2. The current head has 55
successful checks, four expected skips and successful Snyk status.
- `git diff --check`, `node scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs`, and
`node scripts/check-maps.mjs` pass.
- The full local Vitest suite is not run for this patch. The local
filesystem fell below 500 MiB free during verification. The preceding
full-suite attempt crashed embedded PostgreSQL; focused checks and CI
are used without claiming that attempt passed.
- Live incident: verified the exact predecessor sandbox was destroyed
and workspace recovery completed. An audited user retry through the
normal task-retry service started one new native run. That attempt
preserved the original question but failed before provider startup with
a missing workspace-sync descriptor binding. The startup race is fixed
separately in #17838. A later audited retry completed successfully,
saved its useful answer and restored its workspace. The agent API
handoff failed; an audited operator repair through the normal issue
service completed the required user assignment in Review without
repeating the comment or provider work. This verifies recovery admission
on the existing deployment; the new Runner change is not deployed yet.
- Evidence limit: the historical terminal had `error: null` and its raw
sidecar frame was not retained. Fault injection proves this producer
defect and the same loss of diagnostics. It does not establish which
transport fault caused the historical turn to end.

## Risks

- Recovery now receives a specific transport failure code. The error
remains non-recoverable and `providerTerminalObserved` remains false.
Stop proof, effect reconciliation, workspace preservation, retry limits,
and normal execution authority still govern any successor.
- This change preserves diagnostics. It does not make a malformed or
lost provider connection healthy.
- No schema migration, credentials, provider selection, or model
settings change.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, source inspection, tool use,
and code execution. The runtime does not expose the exact model ID or
context window size.

DottaandPaperclip 208a093d19 fix(chat): preserve resumed review waits and retry newer saved input (#17725)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/36/changes/paperclip/36
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - GitHub review agents publish findings and wait for an authorized
reply or head change.
> - Review tools could retain the requester after resume while
completion lost that same wait proof.
> - A yielded report could then queue its own continuation or repeat a
missing-wait error.
> - Ordinary Retry could also select an older failed turn while a newer
saved request had no admission.
> - This change shares the existing authority proofs and canonical
admission owners.
> - Current access, publication, execution and budget gates remain
required.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17318. Builds on the canonical saved-input retry owner in #17733.
Related #16550 covers deferred legacy comments after ownership waits.
The separate recovery repair in #17724 owns the cleanup-to-saved-input
handoff; this PR does not add a second admission owner.

A resumed review could publish an assessment, then turn its
`response_wake` into an immediate `issue_status_changed` wake. A
provider that omitted its continuation could instead repeat a completion
error. A newer linked-human message saved during a budget hold could
also remain unstarted because Retry selected the older failed source.

## What Changed

- Resolve passive review waits through the accepted requester ledger
used by GitHub tools. Require the latest reviewed head, exact company,
task, agent, repository and processed publication under current access.
- Fill omitted/null yielded continuation from that server proof. Permit
an inherited normal tree resume only through its accepted parent
identity. Permit an ordinary follow-up only after this run has a
processed useful reply linked to its exact inbound message. Reject
acknowledgements, partial assessments, pending or uncertain writes as
that reply proof.
- Recheck the same run/review/head/source proof during feedback,
finalization and final status commit. Preserve explicit malformed-input
rejection and Done policy. Add no monitor permission or publication
grant.
- Keep heartbeat and publication projections narrow. Preserve both
published Copilot v62 identities and generate source-bound v63 from the
pinned merged base. No v63 live qualification is claimed.
- Certify the structured isolated-directory binding failure only at its
pre-allocation boundary and only through canonical task Retry. Other
workspace validation reasons and unknown effects remain denied.
- Route Retry to eligible newer saved input through the existing
canonical owner. Preserve the old result and skipped receipt. Require
current principal, source, App, runtime fence, budget, native ownership
and exact cleanup proof.
- Recover absent historical App metadata only through an earlier trusted
processed response receipt and an immutable non-null endpoint claim.
Explicit malformed or conflicting metadata stays denied.
- Revalidate execution through the exact claimed wake, coalesced task
Retry and resolved user-continuation receipt after admission. A second
normal Retry can recover the exact never-started authorization failure
with unchanged saved input. Require empty execution evidence, exact
diagnostics and no allocated or active executor.
- Explain when a recorded result prevents exact replay. Ordinary board
Retry directs a new task message to continue from saved work. Inherited
requester identity alone never grants replay.
- Keep accepted board-message preparation failures with the canonical
task Retry owner. Certify the exact unchanged comment, original user
wake, accepted same-user identity and absence of provider execution. Pin
that source, recheck it at admission, and bind identity initialization
to the coalesced intent and exact claimed successor receipt.
Uncertifiable sources retain an actionable fresh-message refusal.
- Return safe named authority categories for board Retry refusals.
Update execution documentation and capability maps. Add no schema or
polling loop.

## Verification

- A fresh external review request exposed a separate isolated-directory
preparation failure before allocation. Its first normal Retry saved an
intent but admitted no successor. This follow-up certifies only that
exact structured preparation boundary through the existing canonical
Retry owner, with trusted failed settlement and no executor, lease,
result or output. A real HTTP/queue regression reproduces the missing
successor before the repair. Twenty-three current-source safety cases
and the final 98-case Retry/HTTP group pass, including a fresh click
after a denied intent, source revocation, accepted results and the older
direct API remaining denied. The warning case uses actual configuration
preparation and production event append; unknown warning shape or
provider provenance stays denied. Full workspace typecheck, build, maps
and diff checks pass. Renewed hosted normal Retry now succeeds on the
final combined source: it preserves the exact saved request and linked
requester, starts one native successor in a fresh attempt workspace,
publishes the current-head 2/5 assessment and commits In review with
passive response wake.

- A later hosted normal Retry published a low-score assessment but lost
its accepted source identity because the previous attempt failed before
identity initialization. It repeated continuation errors, then submitted
Done. This is failed acceptance, not a successful qualification. The
initializer now retains the exact source only after execution-time
failed-chat Retry authorization; generic Retry and Done policy are
unchanged. A real queue/initializer regression fails with a null source
on the previous code and passes with the newer saved source. Two real
database completion cases verify that source yields the authoritative
wait and commits In review. Renewed hosted normal Retry now retains the
accepted source and exposes the authoritative current-review wait. It
completed after two semantic feedback corrections (wrong contract
revision, then wrong criterion IDs); the correct contract was present in
emitted input. The third finish was accepted and committed In review,
with no missing-wait loop or Done escalation.
- Repeated board-message preparation failures now walk their canonical
intent, failed dispatch and accepted parent identity, rechecking each
contained predecessor. A production queue regression fails the second
ordinary HTTP Retry before the repair and passes afterward. Changed
source, contradictory execution evidence and cyclic receipts remain
denied; traversal stops after twenty links.

- New inherited omission cases failed before the repair. The final full
PostgreSQL 18 wait/status suite passes **252 tests** under Node 24.22.
It covers omitted/null input, malformed-first recovery, same-head
resume, exact-source replies, changed heads, revoked access,
pending/uncertain/mixed publications, final commit revalidation, no
duplicate review and no self-wake.
- **15 existing publication tests passed before the pinned merge** on a
separate fresh database. They retain default partial-delivery and
failure-fallback behavior. Context reads remain below the unchanged 16
KiB heartbeat and publication response limits with large saved output
present.
- Saved-input tests cover a real signed PR webhook, production
accounting-budget refusal, normal policy recovery and canonical Retry.
Historical producer-shaped tests prove the missing-App case red, then
check trusted prior receipts and malformed, late, revoked or mismatched
proof. A broader order-coupled test was reproduced on the prior source;
its global fault injector now targets its own authorization query. The
43-case sequence passes without changing production behavior or its
safety assertions.
- New signed-ingress and real heartbeat execution tests reproduced the
admitted-successor failure, then the next normal Retry failure. The
final pinned merged source passes 249 full GitHub review/publication and
Retry cases on a fresh database, including all 49 saved-input cases. A
separate 74-case Retry/HTTP run also passes. Exact dispatch negatives
cover source, company, agent, task, successor, receipt, pause,
assignment, accepted success, controller and cleanup proof. Bootstrap
contradictions remain denied. The canonical Retry suite passes 16 cases
through its supported external PostgreSQL test connection.
- The normal board HTTP route reproduced the unusable inherited-result
refusal. It now returns actionable guidance without starting a
successor. The actual UI Retry hook and banner tests pass 12 cases.
- A production-shaped accepted board comment followed by a pre-provider
qualification failure reproduced HTTP 409 before the repair. The final
real HTTP/queue test certifies one canonical successor and preserves the
accepted identity. It rejects changed source, actor, task, agent,
result, controller, process, profile, allocation and receipt evidence. A
post-acceptance source change keeps the same intent pending. Execution
revalidation rejects removed or mismatched proof. The probe stops
deliberately after production identity initialization; it does not claim
provider execution. The final source passes the 75-case Retry group, the
focused two-case board/inherited-policy group and 19 canonical Retry
cases. Full workspace typecheck, build and map checks pass.
- Full workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. Map,
module-boundary and diff checks pass. Full local `pnpm test:run` remains
unverified. The 256-case explicit-native suite cannot initialize its
packaged PostgreSQL because libzstd is absent; an existing
command-scoped fallback did not resolve it. Current-head remote
full-suite checks are required. Merged-source full GitHub+Retry (249),
separate Retry/HTTP (74), full wait/status (252), profile/history and
completion (75), and visible Retry hook/banner (12) checks pass. The
fresh owned PostgreSQL 18 databases applied all 377 migrations.
- Actual Rust Runner, OpenCode 1.18.34 and exact DeepSeek used unchanged
production-generated synthetic contexts. Resume finished with an
explicit server wait. The author-reply trial omitted continuation twice:
its first report failed the existing empty-criteria check; the corrected
second report still omitted continuation and received the exact server
wait. It completed once with no missing-wait loop or Done escalation.
Controller acknowledgments were synthetic; these probes do not establish
hosted publication or board state.
- Hosted combined testing proved automatic admission of the exact saved
author reply, a useful GitHub answer and committed passive wait. It
required two malformed-continuation rejections before a nullish fallback
succeeded. A later normal Pause/Resume completed in one finish with
explicit response_wake and no new review/comment. The admitted normal
Retry then exposed the execution guard gap repaired here. Those remain
checkpoint results. On the final combined source, renewed normal Retry
completed actual native provider work and GitHub publication, committed
the passive wait, released ownership and cleaned up its environment. A
subsequent ordinary unmentioned author reply woke once, made no GitHub
tool calls or new assessment, and completed its first finish with an
explicit response wake. Both exact leases expired with successful
cleanup and the queue was empty. However, final destination inspection
found a separate automatic fallback overwrote the existing summary with
a generic no-final-response message. External summary preservation
therefore remains failed acceptance; the separate publication repair in
#17726 owns that producer. Full combined publication preservation has
not passed. These hosted runs include the pinned-base native additions;
they do not qualify Copilot v63.
- Current-head automated review is 5/5 with zero unresolved threads. All
current-head CI gates passed (54 successful checks/contexts, four
skipped, none pending). The earlier login-cleanup idle-work assertion
also reproduced locally while its controlled baseline passed; its cause
remains unknown, but the exact assertion passed in the fresh
current-head CI shard. No timeout, assertion or production workaround
was added. This PR is ready for review within its source, authority,
native finalization, state, wake and cleanup scope. The independent
automatic fallback publication regression is tracked by #17726; no
complete combined workflow pass is claimed.

## Risks

- The latest saved review defines the durable head boundary. Ingress
must record a new head before admission. A reply receipt proves delivery
only for its exact saved source; a shared GitHub comment ID alone cannot
authorize this wait.
- Historical App recovery cannot infer identity without direct proof or
an earlier valid server response receipt. It never replays that
response.
- This does not infer review-score policy from instructions or override
Done. No deployment, merge or repair of historical tasks is claimed by
the PR.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol`, with reasoning, repository inspection, code
editing and test execution. The context-window size is not exposed in
this session.

DottaandPaperclip 9ae4c25e7e perf(runner): reuse compatible protected provider packs (#17749)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native Runner starts provider runtimes in remote execution
environments.
> - Sandbox images already contain qualified provider packs.
> - Startup required the image pack to match the entire current app
release manifest.
> - An unrelated app commit could therefore cause pack verification,
transfer, and installation again.
> - This pull request selects protected packs by their provider
interface and platform.
> - The benefit is no extra pack probe, directory scan, version command,
link, or upload on the compatible image path.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Starting a remote task can reject a compatible image pack because its
source revision or unrelated provider differs from the controller. Pack
replacement added about 16 seconds in the investigated startup. Startup
also repeated full content checks.

**Expected behavior**

Use an already qualified, protected pack when its selected provider
interface and target platform are compatible. Keep the selected artifact
identity for process launch and recovery.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Install a qualified provider pack in a sandbox image.
2. Start a controller built from another app commit.
3. Start a remote OpenCode task. The old complete-manifest comparison
rejects the image pack even when the provider interface still works.

Related repairs: #16493 reduced transfer cost. #17512 retained exact
artifact authority during reattachment. This change preserves that
recovery rule and changes fresh-launch pack selection.

## What Changed

- Add explicit OpenCode and ACPX interface revisions to produced pack
manifests. App Git SHAs and dependency pins remain provenance.
- Read bounded protected-installation metadata in the existing final
runner metadata query. Accept only root-owned paths that the execution
user cannot write, including ancestors and manifest. Reject writable
aliases.
- Select and prepare the pack in server-owned environment setup before
constructing the existing transport. Bind provider launch paths and
digests from the selected installation. Save that identity for exact
reattachment.
- Keep full content verification for uploads, writable installations,
and legacy packs. Reuse successful verification within one startup. Keep
older attached runners compatible with the optional metadata request.
- Seal image packs and document the one-time image refresh that enables
reuse across later compatible releases. Keep selected ACPX agent
qualification checks.

## Verification

- Red/green regression: the old code rejects a protected pack from
another app revision with `manifest mismatch`; the fixed path selects it
without executing verification commands.
- Native startup regression: select the installed pack's own Node digest
with one existing runner metadata request and no pack verification or
version commands.
- Targeted pack, artifact, recovery, execution-driver, and Rust metadata
tests pass. Incompatible interfaces/platforms, malformed identities,
writable roots, path aliases, and exact reattachment are covered.
- Final revision `91dc1676ff67bdbe5866c8586daac10240530cca`: workspace
typecheck and build pass. All 53 current-head checks are successful,
with no pending or failed checks. Greptile is 5/5 with no open findings.
- The broad local `pnpm test:run` attempt reported a workspace-runtime
conflict test failure; its isolated rerun passed. The broad run was
stopped after that failure. Full CI now passes, including the server
test shards. This is not a claim that the full local run passed.
- Linux filesystem evidence: the production metadata functions read a
real root-owned preinstalled pack as a non-root user in 16 microseconds
median and 20 microseconds p95 across 100 warm reads. This measures
metadata admission, not model or hosted response latency.
- All 910 affected server tests and 57 Copilot attestation tests pass
locally on the final implementation. Full CI covers the unchanged Runner
transport. No provider qualification hash was refreshed.
- Built the actual Linux daemon at
`416e7ec7425d0d3565b4a5e1808002d650a60414` and ran its metadata command
as UID 65534. The protected installation returned its real manifest with
`immutable: true`; writable alias and missing-pack cases returned
`immutable: false`. This is metadata/permission evidence, not provider
execution.
- Hosted rollout and a hosted end-to-end latency measurement have not
run.

## Risks

- Existing images need one rebuild to publish the compatibility
declaration. Packs without it keep the legacy content-verification path.
- Fast admission relies on image publication producing a qualified
protected tree. Root execution and task-writable installations retain
full verification.
- Bump an interface revision when required runner/pack behavior changes
incompatibly. Deploy a new image to roll out compatible runtime fixes or
upgrades.
- This removes provider-pack preparation delay. Other runner startup,
context, model, and finalization costs remain separate.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, configured model `gpt-6.1-sol`, reasoning effort `xhigh`,
with tool use and code execution. The context-window size is not exposed
in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 125ddcabe5 perf(runner): keep event journal writes off the HTTP thread (#17745)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage AI agents and their work.
> - The HTTP server also owns durable Runner state.
> - Each committed event rewrites and flushes that state on the HTTP
thread.
> - Large journals and slow writes delay unrelated navigation and saves.
> - Event acknowledgements must still wait for durable storage.
> - This PR stages output writes asynchronously and joins them before
writer replacement.
> - The board can serve requests while Runner output waits for storage.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #17507. Related: #17514 reduces writes per event burst. This PR
moves individual output writes and file flushes outside the HTTP thread.

**What happened?**
A live CPU profile spent about three seconds of a 13-second sample
serializing and synchronously writing Runner state. Representative
journals were about 9 MB. Unrelated task requests had multi-second
delays.

**Expected behavior**
A slow output-journal write must leave unrelated HTTP requests
responsive. An event must not be acknowledged before it is durable.

**Steps to reproduce**
Hold an authenticated output event's file flush in the durable protocol
test. Send an unrelated HTTP request during that flush. Also save a
command, reconnect, or retire the controller during the write.

## What Changed

- Stage `item.delta` snapshots with asynchronous file writes and file
flushes. Keep lifecycle, control, authentication, and tool events
synchronous so transport readers observe durable boundaries.
- Fence publication by saved revision. An older snapshot cannot replace
newer commands or connection state. A failed write fences the writer.
- Write compact JSON and share private-file checks. Existing journals
remain readable.
- Stop external ingress before joining admitted writes. Checkpoint only
after retirement succeeds. Close reports a failed detach consistently
and releases notification consumers.
- Add real HTTP and Rust transport cases for held writes, reconnects,
commands, failure, restart, close, and timeout.
- Add immutable Copilot source identity v61 for the changed shared
transport. Preserve v60, historical decoding, exact-current launch
checks, and qualification flags. No new live Copilot qualification is
claimed.

## Verification

- Head `6f5c92e778`: workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`
passed. All CI gates passed in [run
40356159484](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40356159484),
including both full Runner shards. Fresh Greptile review is 5/5; all
findings are resolved.
- Current-base focused verification passed 300 cases across protocol,
real Rust restart/continuation, permission, backend, and
immutable-profile suites. The complete transport suite also passed 286
cases before the base refresh.
- Earlier iterations exposed lifecycle visibility, late writer
publication, and close-order failures. Controlled regressions reproduced
each before repair. CI also found missing test-peer drain methods and a
stale source fingerprint; both are corrected. An older broad local test
run was stopped after its source was superseded. No full local-suite
pass is claimed; full coverage passed in isolated CI.
- A synthetic 9 MB journal comparison used 20 writes per sample and
concurrent HTTP probes, with alternating baseline/treatment order. HTTP
median changed from 31 ms to 2–3 ms; p95 changed from 51–85 ms to 12–21
ms. Parsed output was equal. The asynchronous loop served 125–153 probes
versus 19–20, and took longer overall (992–1069 ms versus 675–678 ms).
This proves local I/O responsiveness, not deployed application latency.
- Deployment and live save/archive acceptance remain pending.

## Risks

Persistence interleavings affect restart authority. The tests cover
concurrent commands, replacement, failed storage, and reopening the
journal. JSON serialization, atomic rename, directory flush, and
control-event writes remain synchronous. This change still rewrites
whole journals. Incomplete retirement retains recovery evidence and
fails the close. A new exact-current Copilot source identity can reject
an older launch identity; historical decoding remains available. No
migration is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 (Codex), with reasoning, tool use, SSH and browser
diagnostics, code editing, and test execution. The exact serving model
suffix and context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 5823e9a664 fix(runner): preserve disabled Codex web search (#17744)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native Codex agents use the saved agent settings to prepare each
provider launch.
> - Onboarding saves web search as off, but native configuration
conversion removes that setting.
> - Codex 0.160.0 includes a hosted web-search tool by default, even in
an authentication probe that asks it not to use tools.
> - A gateway that permits only priced function tools can reject that
request before budget admission.
> - This change preserves the explicit restriction through native
execution and disables web search for authentication probes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native Codex authentication probe can include hosted web search.
Normal task execution also loses a saved `search: false` setting. A
restricted Responses gateway can reject these requests before it makes a
model call. Related repairs: Refs #17445, Refs #17529. The roadmap and
related PRs were checked; no duplicate repair was found.

**Expected behavior**

Authentication probes check the selected account and model without
hosted web search. A saved search-off setting remains effective in
native task launches, prepared launches, and session recovery. Existing
behavior for an absent setting remains unchanged.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a Codex agent with search off and choose Paperclip Runner.
2. Use a Responses gateway that rejects hosted tools.
3. Inspect the request from the native authentication probe or task
launch. Before this fix, the pinned Codex SDK includes `web_search`
despite the saved setting.

## What Changed

- Preserve an explicit search-off setting when native agent
configuration is built and converted.
- Carry the restriction in the durable native input and provider launch
requirements.
- Apply the restriction to authentication probes and normal launch
paths, including custom arguments and recovery.
- Reject prepared launches that discard the required restriction. Keep
gateway billing rules unchanged.
- Admit only the restrictive literal value in the strict plugin task
API. Exercise the real plugin setup path.
- Add regression coverage and document the policy.
- Add the immutable Copilot v60 source identity required by the changed
shared files. Preserve v59 and all original live evidence. Copilot
authentication probes keep their prior launch requirements.

## Verification

- Regression cases were run against the unfixed source and failed at the
configuration and launch boundaries.
- An isolated capture using the real Codex 0.160.0 app-server reproduced
hosted-tool rejection. Disabling web search reached a mocked budget
reservation. The helper and child processes permitted only loopback
network access and used synthetic credentials. It made zero upstream
calls.
- Focused checks passed: 284 server cases, 61 native form cases, 198
backend/security/launch/parser cases, and 36 authentication/launch
cases. A separate complete transport/launch/parser run passed 393 cases.
These groups overlap.
- Head `617b98f` passed workspace typecheck/build and 28/28 plugin
contract and actual Runner probe tests with no skips. Final rebased head
`20ff0c1` passed all current-head CI checks, including full isolated
test lanes, and fresh Greptile and Paperclip reviews at 5/5.
- The additive Copilot identity update passed 134
compatibility/policy/protocol checks and nine authentication probe
checks. The real pinned Codex SDK capture was repeated after the final
policy change: all five cases passed with zero upstream calls.
- Two local full-suite attempts stopped after native PostgreSQL loader
failures. Seven local dependency aliases were restored, and an isolated
cluster initialized successfully. A third run later encountered host
PostgreSQL semaphore exhaustion and was interrupted before
source-profile regeneration. Its zero exit code after SIGINT is
explicitly not a full-suite pass. Final full-suite verification runs in
isolated CI; the local attempts remain recorded.
- The first CI run exposed a missing strict plugin API field. Its five
failures were reproduced locally, then passed after repair. The next run
passed every underlying job except the source-identity guard. That guard
now binds an additive identity with v59 retained. Final-head CI and both
fresh reviews passed; addressed review threads are resolved.
- The offline capture runs on Darwin ARM64. It does not prove the
contents of a prior unretained Linux request or complete Cloud
onboarding acceptance.

## Risks

- The restriction must survive prepared launches and resumed sessions.
Regression tests cover those boundaries.
- Existing absent settings retain their prior behavior. This change does
not add native search-on support or loosen gateway admission.
- Older durable inputs without the optional restriction must remain
valid.
- Copilot now uses profile v60 for exact launch admission. Historical
v59 inputs remain readable. The new declaration adds no live Copilot
qualification and does not change its executable or admission flags.
- A deployed Cloud acceptance run is still required after this source
repair.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip ad861a7f94 fix(runner): allow bounded controller admission before welcome (#17735)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and preserves their work across
execution failures.
> - Native Runner authentication exchanges a one-use bootstrap ticket
for a connection lease.
> - The controller must admit the connection and persist that lease
before it sends welcome.
> - Runnerd waited only two seconds for welcome, even when its
connection setup budget allowed more time.
> - A slow valid welcome therefore looked like a consumed-ticket failure
before provider work could start.
> - This pull request uses the existing ten-second connection setup
budget for welcome.
> - The benefit is reliable startup during bounded controller delays,
with the same authentication and replay checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A valid native Runner bootstrap can fail while the controller completes
admission. The runner then reports `bootstrap connection failed closed;
provide a fresh one-use ticket`. A later recovery attempt can report an
indeterminate authority and hide the startup error behind a finalization
deadline.

**Expected behavior**

A valid welcome can arrive within the connection setup budget. An
earlier execution or reconnect deadline still ends the wait. A missing
or invalid welcome never permits bootstrap-ticket replay.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run the real Runner WebSocket transport against an authenticated
controller.
2. Hold the welcome for three seconds after the client proof arrives.
3. Before this change, authentication fails with `WebSocket
authentication message deadline elapsed` and `bootstrap_maybe_consumed:
true`.
4. With this change, the runner accepts the bound lease and restores the
normal read timeout.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced against `a1f77821b9` before the production change.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Native Paperclip Runner. The transport is shared by its provider
drivers.

Related: #17401 reduces repeated work in warm-recovery admission. This
change covers delayed welcome delivery for fresh authentication too. It
does not replace that optimization. #17594 addresses a separate lifetime
failure after controller outages.

## What Changed

- Use the ten-second connection setup budget for the authenticated
welcome.
- Keep the execution/reconnect deadline as an earlier bound.
- Add real WebSocket regressions for a delayed welcome and a shorter
lifecycle deadline.
- Add a real Runner process test proving a delayed admission starts one
provider and keeps it through two turns.
- Document the startup contract and its recovery verification scope.

## Verification

- Red: the delayed-welcome regression failed against unchanged
production code with a message deadline and `bootstrap_maybe_consumed:
true`.
- Green: all 402 Runner core library tests pass. The suite includes
authentication, ticket fencing after a lost welcome, identity rejection,
replay, and no repeated provider effects.
- Map and module checks pass.
- Workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. The new process
integration test passes (one provider process, one thread, two turns,
suspended with an empty outbox).
- Live acceptance at this branch's production Runner build passes on
macOS arm64 with pinned OpenCode 1.18.34 and
`openrouter/deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash-1017`: delay admission by three
seconds, create a file, suspend, resume the same provider session under
a fresh run authority, read the first file, and write a second file.
Both useful outputs match exactly; final runner state is suspended.
- Preserved setup failures: a non-pinned executable was rejected, and
the debug binary exceeded cold provider startup admission. The pinned
executable and release binary passed. The first harness also tried to
reuse a completed task object; the follow-up used the normal resume
path. Exactly two paid model turns ran.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` was attempted and stopped after the Mac
exhausted PostgreSQL semaphore capacity (`could not create semaphores`);
it is not a local full-suite pass.
- Current-head CI is green at
`df5d5494c9f9f444114aaf12e095a554110d2e14`: all checks passing or
non-applicably skipped, zero failures or pending checks. The additional
Superagent security scan triggered by ready-for-review also passed.
These include all general/serialized test shards, Runner Rust/Vitest,
E2E, typecheck, build, and the final verify gate. Greptile reviewed that
exact commit at 5/5 with no findings or inline comments.
- This proves the actual native Runner/provider path locally. It does
not prove rollout or recovery on a hosted Linux/amd64 execution
environment.

## Risks

- A stalled welcome can take up to eight seconds longer to fail when the
configured lifecycle allows it. Shorter execution/reconnect deadlines
still take precedence.
- Authentication proofs, credential expiry, identity binding, and
one-use-ticket fencing remain enforced.
- This does not repair provider-side grammar errors or authorize replay
of an indeterminate historical run. Recovery of existing work requires
the normal stopped-owner and retained-state checks.
- No schema or migration change. A new Runner binary must reach the
execution host before this change affects remote runs.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository inspection, code
execution, and browser tools. The exact serving submodel identifier and
context window were not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip aec86c794b fix(runner): preserve native work through controller outages (#17594)
Keep remote native work under its authenticated connection lease through controller outages. Hold durable ACPX tools through reconnection, align the native Claude HTTP MCP client budget, and wait for the recovered handler before dispatch. Preserve Stop, cancellation, exact identity and artifact checks.

Verified with real-process regressions and a real Claude Opus 5.5 Daytona workflow: 125 seconds offline during useful work, original process and lease retained, no failed native tool calls, queued follow-up completed, independently verified ZIP and committed workspace receipts. All current-head CI gates pass and Greptile is 5/5 with all findings resolved.

DottaandPaperclip 3bd709df8b Operationalize Product E2E accounting, tracing, and scheduling (#17009)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and the work they perform.
> - Product E2E tests exercise real agents, tools, setup and cleanup.
> - Repeated runs need retained costs and traces, including failed
attempts.
> - A passing retry must not hide earlier spending or feedback.
> - Recurring work also needs admission limits, private reports and
failure detection.
> - This change supplies those controls while keeping paid activation
behind existing gates.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #16996 and #17158. This is the consolidated landing of the reviewed
eval operations stack: #17019, #17024, #17025, #17027, #17030, #17033,
#17035, #17038, #17043, #17044, #17048, #17050, #17051, #17092, #17096,

#17130, #17133, #17134, #17137, #17140, #17143, #17154. The repository
permits squash merges only. A local rehearsal showed that squashing each
slice into master causes repeated conflicts in dependent slices. This PR
preserves their commits and lands their combined implementation in one
reviewed integration. Superseded slices will close after this merge.

## What Changed

- Retain every attempt's cost receipt, including setup, failures,
interruptions and retries. Separate reported amounts, estimates, missing
costs and reserved capacity in reports and dashboards.
- Add bounded request admission, exact model pricecards, gateway error
accounting, cache policy and reconciliation evidence. Refuse unsupported
routes and requests that cannot fit the allowance.
- Integrate Braintrust gateway traces and OTLP correlation, with secret
filtering and experiment imports. Record phase timing, including setup,
feedback capture and cleanup.
- Collect complaint and suggestion evidence after each attempt,
including recovery after failures. Retain explicit review dispositions
independently from the product grade.
- Add gated daily and weekly selections, measured forecasts,
setup/readiness checks, wall-time limits and retained monitor
notifications. Include declared non-model overhead in admission while
reporting the existing subscription separately.
- Keep recurring history private, bound uploads and retention, and use
isolated archive environments. Keep public publication an explicit
operation. Report and publication jobs install only the committed
lockfile, with scripts disabled and isolated stores; stale pins fail
closed.
- Integrate current master, preserve its Product E2E journey billing and
privacy checks, and test that shared setup receipts do not double-count
estimated agent usage. Preserve upstream fixture repairs.

## Verification

- Complete integration baseline
`0649a5ce7544ab20825c2183d2f421157db49f24` includes master
`a3e1d915a7110a4e115b46396a3f79e6dfb4d05e` and every original stack head
as ancestors.
- On that integration baseline, `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`: 4,012
Vitest tests passed, two skipped, across 193 files; all 137 Node
source-contract tests passed.
- Focused billing and Product E2E journey contract checks: 24 tests
passed. They cover estimates, unknown receipts, single-owner setup
costs, browser-only execution and private publication guards.
- Monitor and workflow wiring: all 96 Node tests passed. `node
scripts/check-token-gates.mjs`: all gates clean.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck` passes after the standard Runner
TypeScript build refreshed local declarations. The first attempt
rejected the new master `runner_prepared_launch` union member because
this checkout retained an older generated declaration; the source union
already contained that member.
- Current head `492b0708a1c531a023d9ac10f0f3dc6383cc1754` removes
dependency re-resolution from archive-authorized reporting jobs after
the security scan flagged it. All 15 workflow-security tests pass after
updating the old two-install assertion.
- Hosted [CI run
39965460180](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39965460180)
passes on the current repaired head, including typecheck, build, general
tests, Runner checks, browser shards and canary dry run. Greptile is 5/5
on this exact head with no unresolved threads. The security scan passes
after the fixed lockfile-resolution thread was resolved.
- Paperclip Review returned a terminal neutral check but an incomplete
0-file assessment on the repaired head: its platform blocked both diff
responses as prompt-injection content. This is not a successful code
review. No bypass or fabricated pass was attempted; current-head
Greptile, security and hosted CI are independent gates.
- No paid test, reservation release or recurring-run activation
accompanies this landing. Live route qualification and invoice
reconciliation remain separate evidence.

<details>
<summary>Retained earlier validation failures</summary>

Earlier broad local runs had two 15-second test timeouts (CLI poll
cadence and Retry validation), one embedded-database setup timeout, and
later PostgreSQL semaphore exhaustion. The exact timed-out tests passed
separately without larger timeouts; the broad-run causes were not
established. Those local failures remain distinct from subsequent hosted
CI results. The independent #17158 fix records its Muse fixture
collision, its UUID correction and hosted verification. Local Muse
execution was also blocked by macOS embedded-PostgreSQL startup. No
historical failure is treated as a successful paid qualification.

</details>

## Risks

- Admission is a local control, not a provider invoice cap. Missing
provider receipts or resource charges retain unknown amounts and holds;
estimates do not become billed dollars.
- The bounded path admits only documented local suites and provider
routes. Ordinary legacy or separate Runner protocol campaigns have
different controls. Merging this code does not qualify additional
routes.
- Recurrence still needs the existing enable gates and current
qualification/allowance evidence. Archive permissions and resources must
match the documented private-environment contract.
- Legacy reports may lack complete attempt or phase evidence. Reports
preserve that limitation and do not infer zero usage from missing data.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools and code
execution. The exact deployment variant and context-window size are not
exposed by this session.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 0081863463 Fix isolated ACPX admission for assigned PRP tools (#17149)
## Thinking Path

- Paperclip uses Runner to execute agent tasks under Core's selected
policy.
- The ACPX sidecar can receive assigned MCP tools in its PRP catalog.
- Isolated admission still requires a separate native MCP endpoint for
those assignments.
- This check rejects a valid PRP route before the provider can start.
- This PR identifies the sidecar's PRP transport at the runtime-host
boundary.
- The benefit is that assigned tools work with the existing isolated
permission policy.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An isolated Claude task with an assigned MCP binding fails with
`assigned native MCP launch binding is unavailable` when Core delivers
its tools through PRP.

**Expected behavior**

The sidecar must accept its authenticated PRP tool bridge as the
assigned-tool route. Callers that use the native gateway must still
supply its complete binding.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open an isolated Claude sidecar session with `deny-all` permissions
and a read-only policy.
2. Supply an assigned MCP binding in the runtime context and its tools
in the PRP catalog.
3. Omit native gateway environment variables. Admission fails before
provider startup.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced against `92cfd701c39bb1ea394a796023481a21decb2532`.

**Deployment mode**

Runner with an ACPX sidecar and controller-owned tool delivery. Related
contract work: #16978. The search found no existing PR or issue for this
failure.

## What Changed

- Let runtime-host callers select PRP delivery when they supply the
semantic tool bridge.
- Select that route in the sidecar. Keep native gateway validation and
direct callers' default behavior.
- Preserve exact controller operation names in PRP mode, including the
compact assigned-MCP catalog. Keep existing aliases for other bridge
callers.
- Preserve the selected permission and read-only policies.
- Add one process-level sidecar regression and one host admission
regression. The host test calls the real authenticated MCP bridge.
- Document the route and refresh the generated Copilot source hashes.
The provider and profile versions stay the same.

## Verification

- Passed 11 focused tests after the rebase across the runtime host,
sidecar, tool bridge, and Copilot identity tests. They cover both
compact catalog operations, restricted and approve-all policies, legacy
aliases, missing and invalid gateway bindings, and the existing direct
gateway path.
- The process-level test crosses the real sidecar dispatcher and stops
at workspace validation before provider startup. The host test uses real
ownership sockets and MCP HTTP, with a fake provider port.
- The generated identity tests match the current source hashes. The
historical fixture stays unchanged.
- The standard review passed on the rebased commit. [Apex passed the
required 5/5
threshold](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/runs/119513362214)
on `e63a223`, with 11 files reviewed and no findings.
- Rebased onto master `734c265`. The conflicts affected generated source
identities and their test expectations. All reviewed behavior files
remain byte-for-byte unchanged. The user authorized retaining the Apex
result for this rebase. [CI passed on
`3facef5`](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39685163239).
The final PR checks contain 56 passes and four expected skips. The
branch is current with master, has no conflicts, and has no unresolved
review comments.
- `node packages/paperclip-runner/scripts/copilot-profile-identity.mjs
--check` passed.
- Initial local runs exposed missing test dependencies and sandbox
denial of loopback sockets. After the scoped dependency install and
socket permission, the selected tests passed.
- Broad typecheck, build, and test verification runs in GitHub CI, as
requested. No live provider or model request was made.

## Risks

- PRP callers must supply the assigned tools in the controller-owned
catalog. The existing bridge still enforces its closed catalog and
authentication.
- An explicit PRP selection without a semantic bridge still fails.
Invalid native gateway bindings still fail.
- No database, protocol-frame, provider-version, or credential-storage
change is required.

DottaandPaperclip 734c265339 Default new Pi agents to Paperclip Runner (#17142)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Users choose a harness during agent setup.
> - Claude, Codex, and OpenCode already receive their qualified Runner
default.
> - Pi has a qualified native integration but new Pi agents still use
the direct adapter.
> - This change gives new Pi agents the native default on supported
targets.
> - Saved agents keep their runner and compatible settings. Legacy
remains available in Advanced.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17120, #14921, #14922, #14923, #14924, and #14956. Related generic
default work: #15422. This PR is the separate Pi follow-up to the merged
OpenCode change.

**Current behavior**

Choosing Pi for a new agent saves the direct Pi adapter. The native Pi
integration remains behind the generic experimental flag.

**Proposed behavior**

Default new Pi agents to ACPX Pi on macOS ARM64/x64 and GNU/Linux x64
with supported glibc. Keep unsupported targets and explicit Legacy
selections on the direct adapter. Require an explicit provider/model
before test or hire. Permit model-free inactive setup drafts.

**Reason and benefit**

Users choose Pi once and receive its qualified runner. Saved agents
retain their identity and settings. Conversions reject unsupported
legacy thinking and launch settings instead of dropping them.

## What Changed

- Add Pi to the shared platform/default contract and server creation
selection.
- Admit native Pi without the generic experimental flag.
- Preserve provider models, credentials, workspace settings, exact
thinking, and saved native policies.
- Add Pi runner controls, branding, setup resume, onboarding, built-in
configuration, and import handling.
- Add managed Pi OpenRouter routing and matching native provider API-key
accounts. Keep subscription and custom gateway exclusions. Clear
alternate credentials and reject custom Pi provider overrides.
- Keep Pi draft models empty instead of applying Claude's default model.
- Verify setup against the pinned Pi runtime. For native Pi on the
official OpenRouter route, reverify the API key live without requiring a
global Legacy Pi CLI.
- Match Pi’s bounded controller close window to its native snapshot
cleanup and lifetime verification, preserving explicit caller deadlines
and the mandatory drain/suspension proof.
- Bind Pi sidecars to the package that owns the pinned native assets,
including source and vendored server layouts. Other providers retain
their existing package authority.
- Keep protocol-owned finish/block tools out of the ACPX forwarded
catalog. The trusted bridge installs these tools itself; the complete
Rust authorization catalog and terminal receipt ledger remain intact.
This fixes actual Pi session startup and applies to other ACPX
consumers.
- Advance Copilot’s shared-source attestation to v58 because it pins the
shared files touched by Pi. Preserve immutable v57 bytes and historical
decoding; Pi’s own release identity is unchanged.
- Add regression coverage and update the paired maps and developer
documentation.

## Verification

- Passed: full repository typecheck and full production build on final
head 656d304783, including the generated attestation repair.
- Passed: focused shared/server/UI suites covering default selection,
platform fallback, conversion preservation, inactive drafts, managed
account compatibility, credential isolation, OpenRouter routing/model
IDs, exact thinking controls, and saved-account selection. Relevant
batches include 375 server/conversion tests, 267 account/routing tests,
and 110 UI setup/account tests.
- Passed: 179 attestation, historical-profile, qualified-profile, and
native-execution contract tests after CI identified stale Copilot source
hashes. The identity generator check passes; the only delta after the
passing Pi browser run is this Copilot attestation/history repair.
- Passed: 145 managed-account tests, including actual service
preparation and API-key adoption/rejection for native Pi without the
Legacy CLI; 6 pinned-installation probe tests.
- Red then green: an actual task failed session.open because its
54-operation catalog included the bridge-owned terminal tools. The
regression with those tools failed before the filter; all 399 Rust
library tests pass after it. The full product retry exposed an
additional package-authority mismatch. Four authority tests failed
before that repair; 11 authority checks and 14 installation/asset checks
pass afterward. Direct real Pi session initialization with the corrected
package root and catalog succeeds. No model prompt was sent by that
diagnostic.
- Red then green: real Pi posted Hello from Pi but its controller closed
before native cleanup could finish. The cleanup-budget test failed with
the old default and passes with the bounded Pi window. All 46 selected
suspension, drain, and package-authority tests pass after building their
native fixture.
- Passed: token gates, paired map checks, Rust formatting, and git diff
--check.
- Passed real browser acceptance on macOS ARM64, generic native runner
flag disabled, source a433748a12 (Pi code unchanged afterward): the UI
selects Paperclip Runner by default, retains Pi and the selected
model/account, and verifies the pinned runtime plus live OpenRouter key.
A fresh UI-created task, assigned to the UI-created native Pi agent,
posted exactly `Hello from Pi` and reached Done without retry or
restart. The native run and workspace finalization succeeded; the
response and Done persisted after Reload.
- Evidence: 8 preserved browser attempts, including the final passing
18-step journey with all screenshots. Prior failures remain recorded.
The earlier failed checkpoint run recovered on server restart; that
recovery is separate from the fresh final task’s clean success.
- Preserved browser failures: missing account control/inherited Claude
draft model; incompatible managed-account/model-prefix handling; generic
npm probe for Pi; Legacy CLI hello check; duplicate terminal tools and
wrong provider-package authority at actual native session.open; a real
Hello from Pi comment followed by premature checkpoint cleanup timeout.
Each failure has retained screenshots/logs and a corresponding focused
repair. The fresh final task proves these repairs end to end.
- The exact Runner Vitest shard was also run locally after the
attestation fix: the stale-hash failure is gone; 1,833 tests passed, 10
skipped, and two Codex retained-control settlement scenarios failed with
`native_cleanup_maintenance_unproven` during terminal ACK/suspension
replay. Both scenarios passed in an isolated rerun (2/2), and the same
19-test file passed in the preceding Linux CI run. The precise
full-shard timing cause is not established. These Codex scenarios are
outside the changed Pi paths; the original local failures are retained;
no complete local Runner-shard pass is claimed. The corresponding Runner
shard now passes on the final head in hosted Linux CI. All 60 final-head
check runs are now terminal and clean (55 successful, 1 neutral, 4
skipped), and the legacy Snyk status is successful.
- Local full repository tests were attempted but not completed:
provisioning briefly confused a workspace symlink, then a later run was
stopped before browser-driven repairs. No full local-suite pass is
claimed. Final-head hosted CI is green and fresh Greptile review is 5/5
with all review threads resolved; earlier jobs canceled by runner
shutdown are not counted as a pass.

## Risks

- Pi cleanup has a finite 45-second default window, accounting for the
native 30-second snapshot cleanup and 5-second lifetime fence. Other
providers and explicit caller deadlines retain their prior behavior.
- Pi requires explicit operator setup with `paperclipai runtime setup
pi` on the execution host. This PR does not add automatic downloads.
- Linux ARM64, Windows, musl, and unqualified targets retain Legacy.
- Legacy thinking levels minimal, medium, and xhigh cannot be translated
exactly. Native max thinking, warm lifecycle, or restricted permissions
cannot be dropped during a return to Legacy.
- Copilot’s bound profile advances to v58 with exact current launch
admission; v57 remains decodable for recovery. No historical identity is
rewritten.
- Existing agents and immutable run descriptors are not migrated. Cloud
Pi availability is unchanged.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 0a5f1546ee feat(cases): add reusable prompt workflows (#17114)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Cases keep facts, documents, and one primary task across agent
handoffs.
> - Each case currently needs its own procedure text.
> - Agents need to reuse procedures and move cases between them without
replacing the task.
> - This change adds company workflow definitions with a name and
Markdown prompt.
> - Existing handoff and document transactions preserve authority,
revisions, and recovery.
> - Cases remain behind `experimental.enableCases`.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #16959. Related proposal: #3951 uses task graphs and a visual
editor. This change extends existing Cases with prompt definitions and
keeps its current handoff model.

**Problem or motivation**

Agents cannot share a reusable procedure across cases or inspect a
case's movement between procedures.

**Proposed solution**

Add name-and-prompt workflow definitions. Adopt a prompt into the
primary task's revisioned workflow document through a handoff. Keep
phases as free text.

**Alternatives considered**

Defer graphs, workflow versions, run entities, role schemas, authoring
screens, and Spec Kit integration.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing Cases experiment and same-task review flow. It
adds no work queue or new execution engine. The maintainer approved this
scope in the implementation plan.

## What Changed

- Add company-scoped definition storage, shared request schemas, REST
routes, and four optional Cases tools.
- Accept a workflow ID at kickoff. Agent handoffs can adopt, refresh,
preserve, or detach a workflow.
- Capture prompt text and the document base revision at acceptance.
Apply workflow, phase, and document revision together after outgoing
execution settles.
- Hold conflicting document edits for recovery. Preserve cancellation,
replay, and restart behavior.
- Show current workflow names and captured transition names/phases in
Work, history, and Audit.
- Update instructions, API/tool contracts, capability maps, and the
isolated workflow journey.
- Pin bounded workflow prompt reads to a content fingerprint;
continuation conflicts on edits and can restart safely.
- Remove experimental Cases/workflow/Mermaid guidance from the always-on
native prompt. Extract runtime-context prompt strings into a
CODEOWNERS-protected constants file while preserving the public imports.
- Refresh Copilot’s pinned source identity to v57, including the
extracted prompt file and retaining historical identities.

## Verification

Local checks: repository `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass on
the prompt-extraction tree (`88222d45d8`). Full repository coverage
previously completed through the supported isolated shard groups (1,082
general server suites, 161 serialized suites, and all three workspace
groups). The earlier default serial run was interrupted and remains
incomplete. The first sharded run retained the failures described below;
targeted corrections and separate limited-concurrency reruns pass. All
CI jobs, security checks, and the 5/5 Greptile review passed on
`fc1bd79c28`. Fresh CI and review are pending for the prompt extraction
in `88222d45d8`. Focused verification passes: real-database handoff
recovery and reuse; 2,002 native-tool/API contract checks; 144 Runner
catalog/discovery checks; 27 Runner context/coverage checks; 37
case/Audit UI checks; and Product E2E oracle calibration. Token gates,
migration safety/numbering, module boundaries, capability maps, and
generated tool/Storybook catalogs pass. The final route/context
corrections pass 49 API/native-tool tests, 90 real-database handoff
tests, and server typecheck; 142 Copilot installation/sidecar tests pass
with the refreshed identity.

Greptile’s first review found that successive prompt pages could mix
definitions after an edit. The fix returns a content fingerprint,
requires it for continuation, and rejects edits with 409. Strict
live/catalog schemas pass (171 Runner checks). The 2,005 API/OpenAPI
tests pass; the initial native regression caught compression’s weak ETag
prefix, and all 23 native integration tests pass after handling it. The
regression covers same-length edits and a four-byte restart window. No
stored version fields or entities were added.

The prompt extraction passes all 462 checks across six focused suites,
including persisted-context recovery and provider transport. The first
local transport attempt lacked the required debug Runner binaries (102
failures, retained); after building the normal prerequisites, all 283
tests in that suite pass without source or assertion changes. Existing
saved snapshots retain their recorded prompt text, and new executions
use core-only prompt v7. The extracted prompt source is now covered by
both CODEOWNERS and Copilot’s source fingerprint.

Live-provider evidence is separate from those simulated checks: the
isolated API-key campaign `reusable-workflows-api-final-2026-10-21`
passed with local code matching `a1d73b4652`. Four actual Codex API runs
read the adopted task documents, moved one case A → B → A on the same
task, completed normally, and passed all nine durable checks. Browser
assertions verified the current workflow/phase, historical names/phases,
five handoff records including terminal completion, and the completed
original task. Cleanup passed. The local report remains under
`tests/runner-e2e/results/reusable-workflows-api-final-2026-10-21/`; no
credentials or screenshots are committed.

CI initially caught an omitted route-inventory entry and a stale pinned
instruction-source hash; both are corrected and separately verified.
Local serialized coverage also recorded an unrelated environment-route
socket disconnect and activity-route timeout; their separate 11-test and
17-test suites passed without code or timeout changes. An unchanged
chunked-webhook check also passed its separate four-test rerun. The
initial adapter/database workspace groups hit time and resource limits
under default worker counts; complete reruns with `VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=2`
pass, including all 55 database files and 211 tests. The UI/CLI groups
passed 837 files and 9,442 tests in the original run. Original failures
remain retained and are not regraded.

Earlier failed live campaigns remain unchanged: subscription HTTP 429
before agent execution; an obsolete exact-four-row oracle that rejected
the valid terminal fifth row; and a chat-marker expectation that did not
account for the existing explicit-comment presentation policy. The final
fixture requires terminal completion and places the marker in its
authoritative comment. Positive/negative oracle tests and the fresh live
campaign pass.

## Risks

- The additive migration adds a table and nullable case/handoff fields.
Existing rows keep null workflow metadata; no assignments are inferred.
- Adoption can wait on an intervening task-document edit. Recovery must
cancel the old intent and accept a new one after readback.
- Shared definition edits affect future adoptions. Existing case copies
keep their revisions.
- The feature remains experimental. This PR does not merge or deploy the
change.
- Live acceptance covers native Codex before the prompt extraction; this
cleanup has contract/transport verification rather than a new
live-provider campaign. The refreshed Copilot identity has static
compatibility evidence, not new live-provider qualification.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, configured model ID `gpt-6-astra`, xhigh reasoning. Used
terminal execution, file editing, and tool calls. The active
context-window size is not exposed.

eece07a747 fix: repair the complete projectless repository setup chain (#17088)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage agents that do useful work.
> - A projectless task can prepare an authorized repository in its
retained workspace.
> - Setup must hand work to a later run without user supervision.
> - Real task attempts exposed gaps across admission, completion, and
queue dispatch.
> - A successful provider exit did not prove that the requested result
was delivered.
> - This PR repairs the existing lifecycle and checks the complete
repository journey.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17047. This PR includes the preserved repairs from #17049, #17052,
and #17082.

**What happened?**

A projectless native task could stop after requesting a repository. It
could also continue through a timer or generic recovery path and lose
its saved conversation lineage. The latest real Codex and Claude
attempts delivered correct files, but the native continuation had been
folded into the finishing predecessor. Both attempts remain failed
measurements.

**Expected behavior**

Prepare the authorized repository, retain the original context, and
dispatch one saved continuation after its predecessor finishes. Deliver
the verified result in the originating conversation. Stop, current
access, approval, and real blocker rules remain authoritative.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run the explicit automatic-repository suite for native Codex or Claude.
Inspect the downloaded result, original context artifact, both committed
run records, and continuation receipts. The suite uses one attempt and
does not widen the default paid selection.

## What Changed

- Resolve the retained local-board identity through current company
membership and workspace authority.
- Prepare required source dependencies before the isolated server
imports native tool authority.
- Explain the saved repository continuation in production completion
tools. Correct only the exact pending-checkout blocker backed by a live
receipt. Reject an unfinished response wait without a real response
source.
- Preserve the persisted task-session workspace source and its explicit
absence of root repository context. Permit Git's exact no-repository
result only for a validated plain task directory. Keep other Git errors
and linked metadata strict.
- Revalidate server-resolved same-agent continuation values against
current ownership and the saved kind, summary, and key. Carry this shape
through the internal bridge schema. Keep provider-facing schemas
restrictive.
- Preserve terminal result authority after a correlated successful
controller response. Controller rejection creates no result authority.
Bind the shared guidance and transport source in Copilot v55 and
preserve historical identities.
- Admit native status wakes with the existing no-coalescing contract.
The existing deferred queue retains a distinct future dispatch instead
of retagging the finishing run.
- Recover deferred conversation lineage through the actual admitted
dispatch. Accept a null outbox run binding only with matching decision,
effect, dispatch actor, idempotency, task, company, agent, and requester
evidence. Reject a conflicting nonnull binding.
- Independently grade retained random context, actual checkout bytes and
HEAD, accessible output, distinct continuation receipts, and admission
order.

## Verification

- Real database and Git regressions fail before their repairs. Prior
focused cohorts cover local-board authority, optional repository waits,
plain task directories, and first/reused workspace provenance.
- The new valid decision/effect-backed assembled-heartbeat regression
reproduces coalescing into its active predecessor before the queue
repair. With the repair, it dispatches one successor after the
predecessor finishes. Duplicate sweeps create no extra run.
- The deferred-outbox conversation regression fails before its repair.
The repaired test also rejects a conflicting predecessor binding.
- The current queue, continuation, publication, cancellation,
stale-admission, and domain cohort passes 344 checks across 11 suites.
Server and Product E2E typechecks pass. The strengthened
automatic-repository oracle passes 34 calibration checks.
- Three omitted/null/resolved forms pass through the compiled Rust
runner and controlled provider. The prior shared bridge cohort passes
492 TypeScript checks and 399 Rust core checks. Runner source identity,
TypeScript, Rust formatting, and locked Rust typechecks pass.
- Six real local development cells passed ordinary repository,
conversion, and necessary-question journeys. Independent artifacts and
rendered question/result evidence agree. They do not qualify staging or
Slack.
- Both latest automatic-repository attempts delivered correct files but
failed the strict continuation check. They remain failures. A fresh
replay of this queue repair is pending.
- On the combined candidate `380047f4b923807a8c4f7ef6016e4fe130ab4a3a`,
`pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. Product E2E support passes
3,525 checks with two existing skips, plus 128 source checks. The
complete local `pnpm test:run` is running and is not yet a pass.
- The first replay selection failed catalog validation due to an
operator profile-ID error. A second selection used the wrong
default-model suite and was cancelled before any provider job existed.
Both setup attempts remain recorded. The corrected campaign selects the
recorded GPT-6.1 and Opus 5.5 models plus the local Stop/resume journey.
- Exact-head CI, review, and deployment acceptance remain pending.
GitHub reports delayed PR updates and webhook delivery; the current head
and checks have now propagated. No earlier-head green badge establishes
acceptance of this commit.

## Risks

This changes several boundaries of repository setup. Full product and
deployment acceptance remain required. The queue uses the existing
deferred admission and delivery contracts. Batch deduplication remains
in place. The provenance repair requires the actual bound dispatch and
does not grant publication authority. Current authorization is still
checked at publication. No accepted provider result is rewritten, and
completed provider work is not rerun to repair persistence or delivery.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with repository tools and code execution.
The runtime does not expose its exact deployment ID or context-window
size. Those values are not inferred.

DottaandPaperclip dff63551fe fix: resume unfinished work after repository preparation (#17047)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents that perform work for a company.
> - Task repositories are prepared at normal run admission.
> - A running native task can stage a repository while its work remains
unfinished.
> - The controller did not offer that saved setup as a continuation.
> - The agent could add a timer or wait for a user restart.
> - This change uses the existing same-agent continuation and status
ledger.
> - The accepted explanation and proven conversation remain available
after setup.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17045. That prerequisite has merged. This PR targets master.

**What happened?**

A projectless native task can request a repository for the next
admission. An unfinished task has no server-selected repository
continuation. An explicit same-agent continuation also loses chat
provenance.

**Expected behavior**

An unfinished standard task can yield and resume through the existing
admission queue. Its explanation and final result retain the authorized
conversation. A task that only stages a repository can complete without
another run.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native standard task in a task directory.
2. Request an authorized repository through prepare_repository.
3. Yield with unfinished work and no explicit continuation.
4. Observe that the former driver rejects the yield, although the
pending repository is saved.

## What Changed

- Offer a saved same-agent continuation for the current task's pending
repository.
- Accept that current server continuation in the shared provider driver.
- Resolve chat provenance through applied status decisions, delivered
effects, and admitted wakes.
- Preserve accepted setup explanations without repeating an owned
question card.
- Document optional reproduction details and configured repository
discovery.
- Extend database regressions and workspace access maps.
- Preserve Copilot profile v52 and bind the shared continuation source
in v53. Include the active identity in the QA image fingerprint.

## Verification

- Five focused server suites: 100 checks pass.
- Shared continuation driver: 12 checks pass.
- Server typecheck passes.
- Map contract and whitespace checks pass.
- Existing API and driver assertions fail on the former implementation.
- Real dispatcher and queue cohort: 43 checks pass. The original
reply-loss regression fails before the dispatch receipt fix.
- Continuation driver and installation identity cohort: 62 checks pass.
- Regenerated capability inventory and contract checks pass.
- Final response precedence cohort: 109 checks pass. The stale-comment
case fails on the former implementation.
- All required CI checks, build, and both source reviews pass on
b9c8677635.
- Live provider journeys and deployed acceptance remain pending. No live
qualification is claimed.

## Risks

A pending repository now offers a next admission when unfinished
standard work yields. Incorrect eligibility could create unwanted work.
The lookup requires the current workspace and task. Explicit completion
does not use it. Existing Stop, admission, approval, and transport
authorization remain authoritative. No schema or public task-status
change is included. The shared continuation change requires a new
Copilot source identity. This PR preserves v52 history and does not
claim fresh Copilot live qualification.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with repository tools and code execution.
The runtime does not expose its exact deployment ID or context-window
size. Those values are not inferred.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip e5351b240a Verify native Runner setup through plugin tasks (#17029)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for AI agents.
> - An environment plugin can own a Runner task.
> - The merged launch-preparation contract lets the execution owner
build the provider configuration.
> - Core still needs a task process owner and a setup test that uses
that configuration.
> - This PR connects the task API to the Runner process-owner contract.
> - Operators can test a plugin environment before Core sends it task
work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Runner, plugin SDK, and agent environment tests.

**Problem or motivation**

A task-only environment cannot use the shell-based setup path. Core must
verify the Runner hello exchange and process cleanup through dedicated
task operations.

**Proposed solution**

Add a lease-bound task driver and use it for a bounded setup probe. Keep
heartbeat admission and task execution in #16978. This PR follows the
merged launch-preparation contract in #16997.

**Alternatives considered**

A provider declaration alone cannot prove that Runner and the provider
connect. A shell bridge would give the plugin an unnecessary command
interface.

## What Changed

- Pass structured Runner launch data to process owners. Support an
external connection and explicit detach.
- Add typed launch authentication checks and checkpoint operations.
Check lease, run, project, and retained-task authority.
- Connect launch preparation, PRP, termination proof, and credential
handoff to the task driver. Reject local environment overrides during
installed-account setup. Pass saved-account identity and credential home
directly from Core.
- Run a short-lived setup probe through the existing agent environment
test API. Require a verified provider hello and cleanup. Keep saved
Copilot account checks metadata-only through a dedicated task operation.
- Update the Copilot source identity because the shared transport source
changed. Keep provider behavior and the earlier identity fixture.

## Verification

- CI passes on `f987adec7`: 55 successful checks and 5 expected skips.
Standard Greptile and Apex are both 5/5 with no open findings. The
branch merges cleanly with current master.
- Repository typecheck and build pass after the rebase onto the
workspace-provider contract. Server typecheck and build also pass after
the final setup fix.
- The 110 focused lease, SDK, setup, Copilot, and route cases pass after
the rebase. All 14 setup cases pass after the final change. These
include a real local Runner with a test provider. The saved-agent
model-discovery case also passes.
- Apex found that Core's relative workspace marker failed the driver
path check, and non-Codex sessions omitted the observed model. Both
failures were reproduced and fixed. The probe leaves physical workspace
selection to plugin preparation. The transport reads each provider's
observed model and exposes it to the driver. All 14 setup cases, 6
transport peer cases, and both existing real Runner/OpenCode cases pass.
Runner build and server typecheck pass.
- The coverage audit removed two redundant cases, repeated fixture code,
and two extra real Runner launches. It kept authorization, credential
selection, cancellation, lost replies, termination proof, checkpoint
identity, and provider setup checks.
- The Copilot source-identity check passes. The added-line secret and
PII scan passes. The unmerged v52 attestation was regenerated after the
shared transport fix.
- CI on `13faeff02` caught one stale Copilot digest assertion after
attestation regeneration. The literal now matches the candidate
attestation, and all 49 installation cases pass. That CI lane otherwise
passed 1,818 cases.
- An earlier CI run hit an unchanged UI toast timing test. The separate
fix is tracked in #16952. Current CI passes that shard. CI also caught a
stale model-discovery assertion in this change; the assertion is fixed.
- The local full-suite run was stopped when master changed. The final CI
run supplies exact-head full-suite validation. No live Cloud or provider
test was run.

## Risks

- Native hello tests require a saved Core account or the installed
account. Local environment overrides are unsupported for
installed-account probes and fail before the provider runs.
- A native task provider must declare launch preparation and
authentication-check version 1. It must keep the checked configuration
fixed through submission. Core rejects providers that cannot make this
guarantee.
- A lost task reply does not prove process termination. Core retains
grants until the provider proves termination and Core saves required
state.
- This PR does not enable native heartbeat dispatch through plugin
environments. Cloud deployment and live provider validation remain
separate.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. The exact model ID and context window are not
exposed in this session. Tool use includes code editing, local tests,
and the GitHub CLI.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**
Runner transport prepares provider files on the controller before
launch. An execution owner cannot prepare those files in its own
environment through the existing driver.

**Proposed solution**
Add `prepareLaunch` to the execution driver. Supply versioned Core
requirements. Accept a configuration ID, requirements digest, and
ordinary provider descriptor. Validate Core policy and assignments
before launch. Keep existing provider session checks.

**Alternatives considered**
Provider-specific ownership flags would spread the boundary across
backends. Shell preparation would expose process details in the plugin
API.

Refs #16993, #16977. Both prerequisites are merged. This PR now targets
master. Native plugin integration and execution-host preparation follow
separately.

PR #16978 contains an earlier, unmerged prototype. Its
`persistentAgentHome` mode and skill path-map call will be replaced by
this preparation contract before activation. This PR preserves current
master callers of the skill helper.

## What Changed

- Add the optional preparation callback and an explicit Runner artifact
identity.
- Keep the built-in preparation path as the default.
- Validate provider policy and resource assignment identity. Preserve
instruction text when resource locations change.
- Persist the attachment seed after an authority epoch rotation, so a
later controller restart can recover the same run.
- Preserve explicit context removal on a new run. Only an omitted
context can reuse the saved context. Remove its registered instruction
framing when context is removed.
- Save exact requirements and configurations in a private file outside
Runner commands. Retain the active record across failed attachments. Use
current grants for new runs. Keep incompatible session changes rejected.
- Join delayed preparation during startup and warm attachment cleanup.
Retain an unsettled checkpoint after a timeout. Prevent work after
cancellation.
- Use the supplied Runner artifact for interrupted handoff recovery.
Restore the exact target configuration at each handoff crash boundary.
Check the Runner state when the final ACK may be lost.
- Bind the changed shared sources to Copilot profile v51. Preserve the
v50 receipt and current integrity checks.

## Verification

- Workspace typecheck passed.
- All 487 affected Runner transport, control-plane, preparation store,
builder, policy, and profile tests passed on commit `eaf8ae8d1`.
- Workspace build and typecheck passed again on commit
`eaf8ae8d12c7ef2d22d226e4b3f05fdbf79ef4cb`.
- Both warm attachment cleanup regressions fail before the fix. They
pass after the fix. The tests cover delayed preparation, timeout
retention, and concurrent attachment rejection.
- The routed handoff regression fails with a missing controller binary
before the fix. It passes after the fix. The execution owner launches
the real fixture Runner.
- The 200,000-byte instruction regression fails before the fix and
passes after it. Four prepared handoff crash cases verify exact request
and configuration recovery. The store tests verify private file mode,
conflicting records, corrupt data, and active-run retention.
- A real Runner with a controlled fake provider verifies execution-host
paths, exact recovery, warm reuse, incompatible profile rejection, and
cancellation. It does not contact an external provider.
- The regression found undefined settings in strict PRP command hashing.
Requirements now contain only JSON values. The warm transition test
passes without changing PRP validation.
- The broader root suite on the prerequisite finished with 22,420
passing tests, seven failed tests in unchanged Git and diagnostic code,
and two suite setup errors because Cargo was absent from its PATH. This
PR does not claim a passing full root suite.
- The CI Build job passed compilation and production runtime boot, then
its runner received a shutdown signal during the clean public install
check. Other jobs reported lost communication with their self-hosted
runners. The failed jobs passed on retry on the same commit; successful
jobs kept their results.
- The current Superagent security scan is inconclusive because its
pinned merge-base checkout failed or timed out. GitHub rejected the
check rerun request through the available API. This is not a passing
security scan.
- Standard Greptile and Greptile Apex each returned 5/5 on `eaf8ae8d1`.
All review threads are resolved. CI passed on attempt 2. Current checks
have 55 successes, four optional skips, and the inconclusive security
scan described above. The branch is ready, mergeable, and current with
master.
- No live provider qualification or deployment was run.

## Risks

- A preparation owner must store configurations and keep retries bound
to the same task and requirements.
- Copilot source binding requires a new profile identity. This PR does
not claim fresh live qualification.
- The callback is an SDK extension. This PR does not connect it to a
plugin task process owner or add a Launcher endpoint.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. Reasoning and repository tools. The exact serving
model identifier and context size are not exposed in this session.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 05f7079ecb Extract Runner provider launch preparation (#16977)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for AI agents.
> - Runner starts providers in local and remote environments.
> - Core selects the provider and task policy.
> - The execution environment supplies paths and installed files.
> - The transport currently combines these inputs in one large method.
> - This PR extracts provider descriptor construction before a separate
plugin preparation change.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Runner provider launch preparation.

**Current behavior**
The PRP transport constructs each provider descriptor inside startup.
This couples provider configuration to transport lifecycle code.

**Proposed behavior**
The transport calls one built-in descriptor builder. The builder takes
Core provider requirements and execution-environment locations as
separate inputs. File staging, provider validation logic, and session
rules keep their current behavior. The required Copilot source-identity
update changes profile admission metadata.

**Reason and benefit**
This gives launch preparation a separate unit of code. A later PR can
add plugin-owned preparation without adding ownership flags to each
provider backend.

Refs #15406, #16486. This replaces the earlier installed-home
implementation in this PR. #16978 remains a draft.

## What Changed

- Extract provider descriptor construction and its existing permission
helpers.
- Keep helper exports at their previous import path.
- Add focused tests for selection, permissions, locations, and managed
profile rejection.
- Update the Copilot source identity. Bind the extracted file and retain
the v49 history. The source attestation requires v50 after this move.
This changes the admitted profile identity even though no execution
behavior changes are intended.
- Document the boundary and its current limits.

## Verification

- 338 focused builder, transport, Codex security, and Copilot identity
tests passed on the rebased head.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed. `pnpm build` passed.
- The full root `pnpm test:run` on the pre-rebase head is still in
progress. It has reported five failures in unchanged server tests. One
isolated failure rejects the word `private` from this checkout's
`/private/tmp` stack path. The full root suite is not reported as
passing.
- All 56 CI checks passed on the rebased head. Four optional checks were
skipped. The branch is mergeable. Workspace typecheck and build passed
on this head.
- Standard Greptile and Apex each scored commit
`47f631883d8f417f6a818500ebe4e77e22cc70b8` 5/5. The rebase onto master
changed only Copilot identity metadata, history handling, and related
tests. `git range-diff` confirms that the launch-preparation
implementation is unchanged. The existing Apex result remains the review
evidence; it did not review the new commit hash.
- No live provider calls or Cloud deployment were run.

## Risks

- A moved field could change provider startup. Existing transport tests
and the new boundary tests check the projection.
- Copilot source binding requires a new identity after the move.
Existing artifacts and retained sessions must match the new admitted
profile. This PR does not claim fresh live qualification.
- This PR does not enable plugin-owned preparation. File materialization
remains in the existing SDK path.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. Reasoning and repository tools. The exact serving
model identifier and context size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 505e1a5582 feat(cases): add persistent workflows with same-task agent handoffs (#16959)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - An agent workflow needs persistent facts and a safe way to transfer
work.
> - Creating a task for each phase splits the objective, discussion,
workspace, and review policy.
> - A case can retain the facts while one primary task moves between
agents.
> - Transfers must survive process failure and preserve private access,
budgets, and completion gates.
> - This pull request adds durable case handoffs, native case tools, and
read-only case pages.
> - Prompts describe the workflow. Existing task controls decide when
work can run and finish.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Prompt-driven agent teams need a persistent record that can move through
triage, implementation, verification, and correction. Ordinary
reassignment does not provide a durable instruction, safe release
barrier, or recoverable delivery receipt for an agent handing off its
own running task.

**Proposed solution**

Extend standalone cases with one primary task, a descriptive phase,
retained access sources, and a handoff ledger. Apply assignments after
source execution and workspace settlement. Deliver each transfer through
the existing durable wake queue. Provide `create_case`, `read_case`,
`update_case`, and `handoff_case` in the native runner. Creation
requires kickoff and explicit workflow text. An explicit handoff to
`done` closes the case when normal task completion is accepted.

**Alternatives considered**

Do not add a workflow engine, filesystem queue, configured state graph,
or one task per phase. The workflow document combines transition prose
with an optional Mermaid `stateDiagram-v2` map. The server does not
execute the diagram. The Pipelines experiment removed on master stays
removed.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends Agent Reviews and Approvals, Enforced Outcomes, Bounded Run
Recovery, and Activity Log attribution. Existing approval, review,
budget, privacy, workspace, and responsible-user rules remain
authoritative.

Related work: [ordinary handoff wake
recovery](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/15019). This
feature adds a separate persisted case-handoff receipt and release
barrier.

## What Changed

- Add case routing fields, retained access sources, durable handoff
history, delivery leases, and replay-safe migrations.
- Keep the same primary task across agent phases. Preserve each
returning agent's own session and the task's workspace.
- Fence outgoing mutations, wait for provider and workspace release, and
recover delivery without duplicate task comments or runs. Recheck
current assignment permissions as the original caller before applying a
delayed transfer. Scope a run Stop to that run’s own handoff intents, so
repeated old Stop requests preserve newer work. Cancelling terminal
intent without a source run also requires fenced current task ownership,
including native retries and preparation with an old checkout. For Cloud
callers, revalidate current stack membership with an uncached Cloud RPC
and derive owner elevation from the current managed setting.
- Keep case reads, documents, assets, Audit, and live events inside
retained task/project permissions.
- Add native case creation/read/update/handoff tools. Store required
workflow text and initial documents on the first task. Page oversized
case facts and referenced document bodies through the dedicated tool
with bounded UTF-8 JSON, current routing versions, snapshot conflicts,
and current source authorization on every page.
- Add read-only case lists and detail pages, task-style list controls,
compact dotted field tables, linked handoff tasks, and case filters in
Audit.
- Add native/legacy integration tests, migration/restart tests, browser
coverage, and bounded live receipt fixtures. Extend the trusted sandbox
condition to cover the new subscription fixture profile.
- Hide obsolete paused-agent warnings on completed or cancelled task
threads.
- Synchronize the company-switch settings test with React effects after
a CI failure. Preserve its security assertions and production remount
behavior.

## Verification

The branch directly includes master `9ef434fe79`. The required `ci /
verify` and `ci / e2e` gates pass on head `765fccd67c`. [Current-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39464348614)
passes typecheck, build, tests, and all eight browser shards. Security
checks pass. [Greptile gives this exact head
5/5](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/16959#issuecomment-6291156549),
with no unresolved review threads. The optional Paperclip Review check
remains queued because its assigned agent is paused. It is not a
required branch check. No check result was overridden.

Local workspace typecheck and build pass after the master merge, along
with database migration checks, token gates, map checks, Storybook
catalog checks, and the Copilot profile identity check. Standard builds
refresh Runner vendor output. Focused checks pass 2,008
API/paging/context tests and 7 strict case protocol tests. The final
commit changes one test fixture only; its ten tests, UI typecheck, and
token gates pass. No production source changed in that commit.

On current head `765fccd67c`, all **194 critical workflow tests**
executed and passed with no skipped tests in those files:

- 38 Stop/ownership tests, including board completion intent, native
retries, stale Stop, and preparation with an old checkout.
- 2 actual legacy process/HTTP handoff tests, including scratch failure,
a closed-stdio child that continues writing, and recovery through a
fresh worker after the process group stops.
- 5 migration tests, including SQL column metadata, preserved null
authority context, and all six prior-numbering receipts.
- 3 process-settlement and 5 scratch tests.
- 88 handoff-service, 18 heartbeat handoff, and 21 native case-tool
integration tests.
- 7 bounded case/document-read projection tests and 7 strict
protocol-contract tests.

The current CI checkout was `fed65d49`, merging `765fccd67c` into master
`9ef434fe79`. Its new document regressions reconstruct exact
Unicode/escaped bodies and revisions through real native authority and
authenticated HTTP with generic API tools disabled. They cover
case-owned, primary-task, and linked-task documents; routing on every
page; stale document snapshots; access loss and unlinking;
unrelated/foreign/private sources; system documents; and quarantined
content. Active-task document tools retain their existing behavior.
These are current-head test results from the first CI attempt; the
browser-only retry did not rerun these suites.

The full `64fdd3403f` CI failed one separate settings test: after a
company switch, it observed an unsettled API-key draft. The production
component and test were unchanged from prior green source. Production
switches remount both keyed settings layers; the test directly reused an
unkeyed view and used a timer tick instead of waiting for React effects.
The final commit replaces that fixture synchronization with React `act`.
The exact secret-clearing assertions and all timeouts remain unchanged.
The original assertion failure remains recorded; no unchanged retry was
used. The narrow unchanged baseline and fixed fixture each pass 10
tests.

The upstream result-paging merge preserves case capture namespaces and
current asset privacy. Its API integration suite executed 39 of 41 tests
successfully, with two skipped; the optional assigned-result PRP
integration test was skipped. Neither skipped suite is counted in the
194 critical tests or as live provider proof.

All 361 upstream migration entries and SQL bodies remain unchanged. Six
case migrations follow master as 0363–0368 with identical SQL hashes.
Official Drizzle generators produced the combined metadata and five
retained snapshots. Generation reports no schema changes, and the
snapshot drift test passes. The earlier `ce361ae5d0` CI passed on
attempt 1, including its then-current 179 critical tests. Fresh review
later identified unusable document references with generic API tools
disabled; the bounded document reads and ten additional authenticated
HTTP tests address that finding.

The full local `pnpm test:run` attempt was cancelled after this Mac
exhausted PostgreSQL semaphore capacity; it is **not** counted as a
pass. Later database attempts also stopped before assertions or skipped,
including one sandbox socket denial. Two original stale-Stop regressions
did reproduce the bug against the old source. A REST serialization
assertion passed after two preserved database-startup failures. No test
timeout was increased. All 194 assertions listed above executed and
passed in current-head CI. The complete 385-file, 3,963-test UI shard
also passed after the fixture repair.

A configured-provider receipt workflow passed 13 backend checks across
triage → implementation → verification → correction → done, using one
task and four work runs. The saved receipt is revision 2 with total 6
USD; case and task both closed. The original canonical attempt remains
failed because its browser assertion confused the terminal destination
with completed-task tooltips. The corrected full browser verifier passed
on the same retained database and original runs, with no additional
provider calls. The last clean-build browser readback is on
`6a86c54a53`; later changes affect recovery, authorization, bounded
reads, and settlement. Accounted work cost is a $1.010574 rate-card
estimate; provider billing and setup-probe usage are unavailable.

Copilot profile 49 passed the unchanged seven-fixture private protocol
pack (46/46 checks, no retries) and the product file-edit canary after
master's completion-replay change. All 60 bound implementation hashes
remain unchanged on the current source. Historical profile-47/48
identities and results remain intact. See the [profile-49 compatibility
record](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/persistent-case-handoffs/doc/plans/2026-10-20-copilot-completion-recovery-compatibility-v49.json).
This is bounded compatibility evidence, not a fresh full matrix,
installed-package product test, or Daytona rollout.

Preserved CI failures and retries:

- On `20662930ac`, Slack managed setup failed a five-second success
assertion after reload. Its test/application path was unchanged from a
prior green head. One unchanged-source retry passed all 25 tests in that
shard; no source or timeout changed.
- On `9402b4f17a`, two CI workers received shutdown signals at 15:24:19
UTC. Neither log had an assertion failure before interruption. One
unchanged-source retry of each passed all Runner static checks and all
32 tests in browser shard 6; both aggregates passed. The next head,
`7b4374edaf`, passed all CI without retries.
- On `295f289b5a`, serialized shard 9 timed out during its first
device-login test, then the next test found an active login lease.
Direct login/test paths were unchanged from a prior green head. Cold
import plus a timed-out async body using the next test's mutable
actor/store is the supported fixture-race explanation; no request trace
proves that sequence. The original failure remains recorded. One
unchanged-source retry passed all 294 tests in 19 files, including all
41 device-login tests. No login source or timeout changed. The
subsequent `ce361ae5d0` CI passed without retries.
- On `64fdd3403f`, one company-switch settings assertion observed an
unsettled draft. The final test-only commit uses React `act` without
changing assertions, timeouts, or production code. On `765fccd67c`, all
ten settings tests and the complete 385-file, 3,963-test UI shard
passed.
- On `765fccd67c`, browser shard 3 completed the split-handoff
assertions, then cleanup received HTTP 500 from run cancellation after a
one-second PostgreSQL row-lock timeout. The extra chat run was reporting
completed work while teardown began. Cleanup stopped before restoring a
global experiment flag, causing a later assertion to fail. Relevant
production and test paths are unchanged from an earlier green commit.
Stop's lock order is consistent, and no nested self-lock was found; the
exact PostgreSQL blocker was not recorded. One unchanged-shard retry
passed. The original failure, trace, and downstream flag failure remain
recorded. No Stop implementation, cleanup assertion, or timeout changed.
The retry supports intermittent cleanup contention; it does not identify
the original blocking transaction.


## Risks

- Local process transfers require host-owned PID/group absence. Missing
or uncertain termination evidence keeps delivery pending, independently
of scratch setup.
- Handoff admission and task cancellation share execution ownership. New
regression tests cover temporary holds, late source writes, and
uncertain provider termination.
- Retained private sources use an intersection of existing permissions.
This intentionally fails closed when a source is missing or an existing
task cannot preserve that boundary.
- Migrations add tables and indexes. They preserve master history and
can replay over prior feature installs. Migration 0368 adds nullable
internal authorization provenance with no default or authority backfill.
Historical transfers still awaiting release without this context fail
closed; an operator must cancel them and request a new handoff.
- Delayed Cloud handoffs depend on the current Cloud membership RPC. An
unavailable, ambiguous, expired, or mismatched response holds the
handoff for retry; it does not reuse cached authority or grant access.
- Bounded reads reload and reauthorize the selected projection per page.
Underlying work grows with the data size and number of pages. Changed
data or routing requires restarting from offset zero without the old
snapshot.
- Phase names and workflow diagrams remain advisory. They do not satisfy
review or approval gates.
- This is a large, cross-cutting PR. The maintainer requested one PR for
the whole feature; the commits separate data, runtime, UI, and
qualification work.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with tool use, code execution, and delegated
code review. The exact deployment model ID and context-window size were
not exposed in the session. Live fixture agents used the explicitly
configured provider model recorded in their test evidence.

628993fc59 fix(runner): name the tool receipts that block the next provider turn (#16961)
When a resumed run cannot start a turn because the semantic tool bridge
still holds pending or unsettled completed receipts, the error now names
each blocking receipt by operation and call ID (bounded to four per set).
Tool input and result content stay inside the bridge. Adds an integration
test covering the four-receipt limit and the trailing "...".

DottaandPaperclip d855e550ad Finish Copilot native runtime on current master (#15701)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Paperclip Runner controls provider processes, permissions and task
completion.
> - Copilot needs its pinned distribution, native message identities and
accepted semantic completion receipts.
> - The release must preserve saved-token access and task lifecycle
guarantees.
> - This pull request will keep the current completion and recovery
fixes while adding the Copilot runtime.
> - The benefit is a reviewable part of the Copilot production release.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14434. Supersedes the runtime work in #15560. This is the first PR
in the stack; #15703, #15705 and #15706 follow. Related alternative
adapter work: #15881. This change uses the shared Runner path.

## What Changed

- Pin Copilot CLI 1.0.88 and bind the integrated implementation as
profile45.
- Keep native instruction, permission, receipt, process ownership and
cancellation boundaries.
- Preserve current master completion continuation and remote
verification behavior. Other provider release identities stay unchanged.

## Verification

includes master `cde944ed75648adfb569e86133adc8b118b55dd6`. The combined
four-part PR tree matches it except for the CI-owned lockfile. Every
prior public PR head remains an ancestor. Released master migrations
remain unchanged; Copilot adds migration361. No unrelated provider is
enabled.

Copilot CLI1.0.88 and profile47 retain digest

exact authenticated model `gpt-5.6-luna`. Every passing Product case
confirms cleanup. Automatic behavior retries are disabled. Original
failed attempts remain recorded.

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

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

After current-master reconciliation,129 connection tests,59 runner
tests,72 shared eval tests and88 recovery/workspace tests pass.
Migration generation/safety, unchanged profile identity and UI token
gates pass. Prior required CI was green. Fresh exact-head required CI
and E2E are green for all four updated heads. Each has a fresh
Greptile5/5 review and zero unresolved review threads. The [final

is running. Recursive typecheck,full CI test shards,build and all8
browser shards pass. These checks cover the final source; no additional
local full-suite pass is claimed.

The [frozen image
build](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39334401638)
and [original normal package
build](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39334407471)
passed. The exact image is published and independently retrieved
anonymously. No separate full-image scan is claimed. All18 original
normal archives were scanned with zero selected credentials. Docker
builds run in the cloud. Provider USD remains unknown and
GitHub-attributed.

**Qualification is complete on the recorded frozen build. Normal
protected merge, automatic master canary publication and final
shipped-package local/Daytona canaries remain. No production deployment
is claimed.**

## Risks

Shared Runner behavior can affect active tasks. Exact profile admission
rejects stale runtime identities. The final campaign and installed
canaries remain release gates.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 7ec6e1a237 fix(runner): explain invalid arguments for assigned tools (#16905)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip coordinates agents through authorized tools.
> - The native runner validates arguments before it dispatches a tool
call.
> - Schema failures give repair guidance for only five built-in tools.
> - Assigned-tool discovery receives a generic rejection, so an agent
can mistake invalid arguments for missing access.
> - This PR applies the existing safe schema feedback to every
authorized tool.
> - Agents can correct their calls while authorization, approval, and
replay checks remain in force.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An invalid `paperclip_search_assigned_tools` call returned only
`Paperclip rejected this semantic tool call`. The call never reached the
assigned-tool gateway. The same feedback gap affects arbitrary assigned
app tools.

**Expected behavior**

Identify argument validation as the cause. Return bounded schema
locations and ask the provider to correct its arguments. Do not expose
submitted values or grant access to unassigned tools.

**Steps to reproduce**

Prepare an authorized discovery tool. Submit an invalid query or
optional argument through the native runner. Observe the generic error
before this fix. Correct the arguments and confirm one dispatch after
this fix.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master at `4970d5ed3d`. The incident did not retain its
rejected arguments, so the tests cover representative invalid inputs
rather than claim to replay that exact payload.

**Deployment mode**

Native runner with the Codex app-server driver. Local verification uses
macOS ARM64 and controlled provider fixtures.

Related: #16868 added bounded monitor validation feedback. #16723
changes runtime MCP catalog loading; this PR changes the Rust runner
validation response and does not depend on that work.

## What Changed

- Supply generic repair guidance for any authorized tool whose arguments
fail JSON Schema validation. Preserve specific built-in hints.
- Keep the existing three-location and 512-byte limits. Do not include
input values or unknown keys. Preserve generic authorization failures
and the existing retry flag.
- Cover missing fields, wrong types, null optional fields, bounds,
unknown fields, unchanged rejected-call state, corrected calls, and
completed-call replay protection.
- Exercise rejection, correction, one dispatch, and successful
completion through the real Codex driver with a controlled provider
subprocess.
- Document the behavior and its verification scope in execution
semantics and the agent access map.

## Verification

- Red: both new runner regressions failed on the original generic
rejection. The existing API-validation regression passed.
- Green: all seven selected validation tests passed. The new Codex
transport regression passed with one rejection and one corrected
dispatch.
- `cargo fmt --manifest-path packages/paperclip-runner/runner/Cargo.toml
--all -- --check`, `node scripts/check-maps.mjs`, and `git diff --check`
passed.
- Full Rust workspace tests, the repository build, and sequential
repository typecheck passed. The existing assigned-tool gateway suite
passed all 30 tests. All hosted test and end-to-end jobs passed on this
head. The duplicate local `test:run` was interrupted after the hosted
suites passed; its local result is incomplete. The hosted build and
clean public npm installation check also passed. All current-head CI
gates are green, including the final verify and e2e aggregates.
- Greptile reviewed commit `3e2743e1e15b3b13a7d803ce4d828510e41fb22a`:
5/5, no actionable findings.
- Setup evidence: master has a stale dependency lockfile. Dependencies
were resolved with the pinned pnpm 9.15.4; lockfile changes are
excluded. The first full typecheck overlapped the build and failed
copying a generated shared-package file. The sequential rerun passed
with no source change. The initial copy failure remains recorded here;
the concurrent build-output race was not separately reproduced.
- The provider is simulated. This proves runner validation and transport
recovery, not that a live model always retries or that GitHub
credentials work.

## Risks

The provider now sees schema locations for all authorized tools. The
existing sanitizer and bounds still apply. Unknown input keys and values
remain excluded. No schema, permission, approval, automatic tool replay,
database, or connection-auth changes are made. Unauthorized tools still
get a generic rejection.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6), with reasoning, source inspection, and tool
execution. The exact runtime model ID and context-window size are not
exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 6f045207bb fix(runner): explain rejected API response windows (#16889)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use the API fallback when dedicated tools cannot express an
operation.
> - Large responses can be read in bounded text windows.
> - The declared schema rejects windows larger than 24576 bytes.
> - The runner hid the rejected field behind a generic semantic tool
error.
> - This pull request returns safe schema locations and the accepted
byte range.
> - Agents can correct a call without guessing or changing route
permissions.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #16868, which added repair guidance for task monitor arguments.

**What happened?**

A native call_api request with responseText.limitBytes set to 60000
returned invalid_tool_call with no field or size guidance. The declared
4..24576 byte range already matches the server validator. The missing
repair guidance is in the runner bridge.

**Expected behavior**

Reject invalid input before dispatch. Show bounded schema locations and
the accepted window range. Do not echo submitted values or unknown field
names. A corrected request can reuse the rejected call ID.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Use the generated call_api tool contract to request a GET text window
with limitBytes 60000.
2. Read the semantic tool error. Before this fix, it contains only a
generic rejection.
3. Retry with limitBytes 16000. The corrected call must be admitted.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master 5739a53f5f.

**Deployment mode**

Built from source. This affects the native runner bridge.

## What Changed

- Add call_api to the existing provider-safe schema guidance path.
- Name the text-window byte range and pagination field.
- Exercise the actual generated production schema through the provider
bridge and its error result.
- Keep private values, unknown property names, authorization errors and
response-size limits unchanged.
- Document the response window and repair behavior.

## Verification

- Red: api_window_rejection_explains_limits_and_allows_corrected_call
failed on master because the provider error did not name
responseText.limitBytes.
- Green: the same regression passes with a corrected same-ID call,
unknown-key privacy checks and unchanged authorization rejection.
- Passed: the existing runner-api.test.ts suite, 1935 tests, including
server window validation before dispatch.
- Passed: all 394 Runner core Rust unit tests, cargo fmt --check and the
generated protocol manifest check. The focused test also passed after
extraction into its own Rust test module.
- Greptile: 5/5 with no actionable issues on the final head
95d65e1646.
- The first CI release-registry run found that a compile-time test
fixture was outside the release-cache input set. The fixture now reads
the same generated schema at test runtime. The Rust regression and all
10 runner-release-crate-cache tests pass after that repair.
- This pure error mapping adds no dependency calls, provider retries or
network work. No live provider or staging deployment was needed.
- Full current-head CI passed, including repository typecheck, tests,
build, Runner verification, canary and browser suites. At
95d65e1646 there are 56 successful and
four skipped checks. The separate Paperclip Review bot completed with a
neutral check and a 5/5 static assessment with no findings. It did not
run current-head Rust, full repository or live-provider tests; its older
local cache run is not counted as current-head test evidence. No check
remains pending or failed. No local full-suite or full-build pass is
claimed.

## Risks

- Feedback must not disclose submitted values. The regression checks
private values and unknown field names, a 512-byte bound and unchanged
generic authorization errors.
- Guidance names the current byte range. The regression uses the
generated production schema so a contract change must keep this repair
guidance accurate.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, tool use and code execution.
The exact runtime model suffix and context window are not exposed to
this session.

DottaandPaperclip ac9459bae3 feat: configure company agent observability (#16874)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Companies use several agent harnesses and execution environments.
> - Operators need one place to select where native agent logs and
traces go.
> - An inference proxy would add a dependency to the agent request path.
> - This pull request supplies native OpenTelemetry settings to managed
Codex and Claude Code processes.
> - Company secrets protect destination credentials. Export failure does
not change the task result.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Company settings, shared contracts, database, server, adapters, and
runner.

**Problem or motivation**

An operator cannot configure a company destination for native agent logs
and traces. Manual harness configuration is hard to apply across local
and remote execution.

**Proposed solution**

Add one company destination: Braintrust or a custom OTLP HTTP/protobuf
endpoint. Apply a transient snapshot when execution preparation starts.
Keep credentials out of API reads, task environment manifests, recovery
files, and command arguments. Replace a warm process when its export
settings change and preserve its conversation.

**Alternatives considered**

Multiple destinations can use a user-operated collector for fan-out.
This change does not add a collector, an inference proxy, or transcript
scraping.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends company settings, secret management, and support for
multiple harnesses. The maintainer requested this implementation.
Searches for observability and Braintrust found no duplicate company
destination feature. Related infrastructure tracing work in #16236 has a
separate content-free contract.

## What Changed

- Add strict schemas, revision checks, encrypted secret storage,
activity records, and board-only settings routes.
- Add explicit synthetic logs and traces tests with a bounded HTTP
request and sanitized results.
- Supply native Codex configuration and Claude Code environment values
through local and remote launch paths.
- Preserve Codex login refresh through the existing managed credential
link. Retain unsaved drafts across background reads. Require complete
custom header re-entry when the endpoint origin changes.
- Separate process export compatibility from conversation identity.
Isolate generated Codex configuration and preserve resumable sessions,
including remote home refresh after export changes.
- Advance the immutable Pi/Copilot source attestations for shared
environment and sidecar code changes. Keep their provider payloads
unchanged and retain prior identities for decoding.
- Redact destination credentials throughout launch diagnostics and HTTP
logs.
- Add the production settings form, Storybook states and journey,
documentation, and feature/access map entries.

## Verification

- Real managed local Codex 0.160.0 and Claude Code 2.1.286 tasks
exported to Braintrust. API readback and the Braintrust UI showed the
test records. A real remote Daytona Codex task exported through the
legacy `exec` path.
- Live tests exercised content capture off, export disabled, warm
conversation reuse, and a destination that accepted connections but
never replied. Agent work succeeded and export requests stopped at the
configured three-second timeout. The UI connection test returned “Test
payload accepted”; the saved API key stayed masked after reload.
- All current-head CI test lanes, typechecks, packaging/build checks,
and required aggregates passed on
`71e994b2be9c8fb6d6e938a4ad7cf4c95fdafe31` ([CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39319194318)).
Greptile completed on that exact commit at 5/5, with zero unresolved
review threads. The additional optional Paperclip Review check remains
queued waiting for its assigned agent.
- Local workspace typecheck and build passed. Focused verification
included 239 combined runner tests, 789 API/native-session tests, 107
Codex home/ACP/sandbox-site tests, 204 feature/privacy tests, and the
affected Rust suites. Migration, token, map, Storybook catalog, and
Storybook build checks passed during acceptance. These checks ran at the
relevant implementation or merge boundary; the current-head CI is the
complete final gate.
- Managed AI credential projections now receive enabled and disabled
company export settings; genuine caller-owned Codex homes remain
untouched. Two regressions reproduced the skip before the repair. All
276 engine/lifecycle tests and adapter-utils typecheck pass afterward.
The launched TOML retains provider/MCP settings, credential continuity,
and redaction.
- Settings saves, removal, and the real company-deletion owner acquire
secret mutation ownership before database locks. PostgreSQL NOWAIT
probes cover all three paths; concurrent save/rotation/removal/deletion
requests settle correctly. The affected suites passed 137 tests,
followed by all 32 service/connection cases after expanded deletion
coverage. Server and Codex adapter typechecks pass.
- Codex source profiles use the effective CLI argument list. A spawned
fixture CLI reproduced both ignored-argument failures; all three
precedence/fallback cases now pass.
- Real tar staging reproduced remote conversation loss in both API-key
and subscription modes before the repair. Both now pass: changing
managed settings preserves sessions, archives, native indexes, and
refreshed subscription credentials. A corrupt upload preserves the prior
config and conversation.
- Preserved failure evidence: initial CI caught stale Pi/Copilot source
attestations, a missing test-harness helper, and packaging fixture/probe
mismatches; those were corrected and covered by focused checks.
Superseded heads had intermittent attachment-composer timeouts despite
successful uploads; [the original trace and screenshot remain
available](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39309701089/artifacts/12215109203).
The same attachment case passed on the final head: [25/25 tests in shard
3](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39319194318/job/118288637051).
- A connection-fault fixture also exposed a stale pooled socket after
its hang case; closing fixture responses isolated scenarios and the full
affected suite passed.
- The broad local test run was not clean: database resource failures,
timeouts, an older cached module graph, and a stale optional-resource
manifest assumption were recorded. Focused checks passed after the
documented fixes. This does not establish a clean full local pass.
- Native remote Codex, remote Claude, and the full ACPX Codex bridge
remain unqualified. The direct Codex resume test does not establish full
bridge acceptance.

## Risks

- Native exporters perform network requests from each execution
environment. A server connection test does not prove remote
reachability.
- Prompts, assistant responses, and tool content are enabled by default
when supported. Native caps and harness-specific controls still apply.
- Caller-owned Codex homes are unsupported for automatic configuration
and remain untouched.
- Native harnesses and their tool processes can inspect export
credentials. The settings form and documentation advise using
ingestion-scoped credentials. Retained headers remain bound to their
saved scheme, host, and port; changing origin requires fresh values or
removal.
- Migration 0357 adds a company-scoped row and secret reference. It is
safe to reapply. Secret removal and company deletion use the existing
secret lifecycle.
- Slow or unavailable destinations must not block task settlement.
Export settings take effect at the next execution preparation boundary.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 06d4fe3121 perf(runner): preload essential Claude task tools (#16885)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Runner exposes assigned tools to Claude through an authenticated
MCP bridge.
> - Claude can defer these tools and search for them before a simple
task can finish.
> - Title and terminal tools are common requirements for a task turn.
> - This pull request marks those three tools for immediate loading by
Claude.
> - The remaining tools keep the SDK deferral policy and the existing
access checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15993, #15994, #15997.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Claude Runner tool discovery during task execution.

**Current behavior**
Claude can use ToolSearch to discover the mandatory title and terminal
tools before it answers a simple task.

**Proposed behavior**
Expose `set_task_title`, `paperclip_finish`, and `paperclip_block` in
the first Claude request through per-tool `anthropic/alwaysLoad`
metadata. Keep other tools deferred under the SDK policy.

**Reason and benefit**
Remove an avoidable tool discovery step without changing the model,
effort, or authorization. Repeated product measurements will check the
latency benefit.

## What Changed

- Add closed metadata for the three essential tools only in Claude
runtime hosts.
- Keep incoming metadata discarded and private tools hidden. Keep other
providers unchanged.
- Test real bridge catalogs and provider routing. Check the pinned
Claude SDK request against a loopback fixture with no paid calls.
- Advance the pending Copilot source binding because it attests the
shared bridge file. Preserve historical profile readers and
qualification limits.

## Verification

- Focused bridge, admission, profile, and effort controls: 185 passed,
one skipped. Three provider-routing cases pass.
- Runner TypeScript compilation passes.
- The production SDK fixture loads exactly three essential tools with
the change and zero in the controlled baseline. The document tool stays
deferred.
- Six real API-key tasks used Opus 5.5 / High in alternating order A B B
A A B. Median first assistant receipt was 22.021 s baseline vs 17.060 s
candidate (22.5% lower). Median total was 24.119 s vs 19.150 s (20.6%
lower). ToolSearch was 3/3 baseline vs 0/3 candidate. All six tasks
saved a title and accepted finish. A separate candidate follow-up
resumed the same provider session and finished without ToolSearch.
- Median startup was 4.786 s baseline vs 5.381 s candidate. This change
does not improve startup. Three samples per version give directional
evidence only.
- Estimated cost for the six tasks was $0.850900800. Candidate total was
$0.450341800 vs baseline $0.400559000; the first candidate wrote a new
cache prefix. These rate-card estimates are not invoices.
- The benchmark used source `5aed3c6a083cf8e6246815455abde3b29ecbbbac`.
Rebuilding both bundles at master-reconciled head
`d2da07259048c0a2bebd210c35cc0ebb3ff42c67` produced identical SHA-256
values. Baseline bundle SHA-256:
`10a92c373bba4fb630bf4fefeab953d850a77cf8258bc2e94711410a73a78ecd`.
Candidate:
`40348fc67a3b1ae5cc1f27f933f369981d31bcdf5d1bdc7b1797968ddfe53938`.
Baseline differs only by compiling the Claude preload selector as false.
Fresh task sessions avoid checkpoint changes.
- Full local runtime-host runs exposed credential lease collisions in
existing cases. A later complete host run passed 67 cases and timed out
in an existing admission-abort case; that case passes in isolation. All
failures are retained. Focused controls pass. Complete Runner suites,
repository typecheck, tests, browser checks, and build pass in cloud CI
on this head.

## Risks

- These three tool schemas add input to Claude requests. Measurements
must include token usage and cost.
- Copilot source identity changes because it includes the bridge source
hash. It remains pending qualification. Its catalog and executable
closure do not change.
- The test fixture proves request shape. It does not prove real-provider
latency or platform package qualification.

## Model Used

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

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

## What Changed

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

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

## Verification

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

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

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

## Risks

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

execution and browser testing. The exact serving model ID and

DottaandPaperclip 985d3b12b6 fix(runner): explain rejected task monitor arguments (#16868)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use task monitors to resume work after a future check.
> - The runner rejects monitor arguments that fail the tool schema.
> - It returned a generic error with no field or repair guidance.
> - An agent could treat a repairable call as a scheduling outage and
block its task.
> - This pull request adds safe repair guidance and shows the nested
request shape.
> - Agents can correct the call and confirm a saved schedule before they
yield.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #15446, #16686.

**What happened?**

A rejected native `set_task_monitor` call returned `invalid_tool_call`
with only “Paperclip rejected this semantic tool call.” The agent could
not identify the invalid field. A retry could fail again and leave
unfinished work without a scheduled wake.

**Expected behavior**

Reject invalid arguments before any mutation. Give the provider bounded
schema locations and clear repair guidance. A corrected call must save a
monitor and allow one wake without duplicate effects.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Call `set_task_monitor` with `idempotencyKey`, `nextCheckAt`, and
`notes` at the top level.
2. The schema rejects the call because scheduling fields belong inside
`monitor`.
3. Before this change, the provider received no guidance about the
required shape.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced against master `35c75b56d4` with a failing Rust regression.

**Deployment mode**

Source checkout. This affects the native runner tool bridge.

## What Changed

- Add monitor-specific repair guidance to the runner's existing safe
schema error path.
- Keep feedback within 512 bytes and omit submitted values and unknown
field names.
- Show the nested monitor request in the production tool description.
Refresh generated contracts and catalog identities.
- Test flat and nested invalid input, private value handling, and
unchanged authorization errors.
- Test rejection, correction with the same key, saved schedule and
audit, receipt replay, and one timer wake with real PostgreSQL and the
native tool authority.
- Update execution documentation and the task verification recipes.

## Verification

- Red/green: the Rust provider error regression failed on master because
monitor repair guidance was absent. It passed after the fix.
- Passed: 29 PostgreSQL monitor and scheduler integration tests. These
use the real tool authority and scheduler, with a no-op process agent
for wake delivery.
- Passed: the native Codex server vertical-slice test. It runs the
rebuilt Runner binary with a fake provider and checks durable results
and session resume.
- Passed: map structure checks, Rust formatting, and `git diff --check`.
- Passed locally: full repository `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and
all 392 Rust library unit tests.
- Passed on commit `3b667ad24763c1828edd48f56ef7a10766aeb946`: [CI run
39290889768](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39290889768),
including all server, Runner, serialized, browser, typecheck, build, and
canary gates. Across the PR, 56 checks passed and four conditional
checks were skipped. No check remains pending or failed.
- Greptile: 5/5 on that exact commit. The check concluded success, with
no review comments or unresolved threads.
- The duplicate local `pnpm test:run` attempt did not complete. It was
stopped after the full CI suite passed; it is not counted as a local
full-suite pass.
- The first PostgreSQL attempt could not bind localhost inside the shell
sandbox. It passed with normal localhost access. The first broader Rust
attempt had 37 socket-permission failures and 355 passes; all 392 passed
with localhost access and no code change.
- Live model recovery was not run. Local execution policy did not
authorize an extra acceptance run through the signed-in provider
account. This PR does not include a deployment or recovery of an
existing task.

## Risks

- Error feedback must not reveal submitted values. Tests cover private
values, unknown keys, nested constraints, length bounds, and unchanged
generic authorization errors.
- This changes guidance only. It does not relax the schema, retry calls
automatically, or change scheduling authority.
- A new runner binary and refreshed provider contract must reach the
target instance before agents receive this guidance.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 9179d8dcc3 fix: credit Paperclip for managed OpenRouter requests (#16850)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - AI connections choose credentials and routes independently of the
agent harness.
> - OpenRouter assigns app credit from the final request headers.
> - Harness defaults can assign Paperclip work to the underlying
harness.
> - This pull request applies one public Paperclip identity to managed
OpenRouter requests.
> - The benefit is consistent app credit across supported harnesses and
internal model calls.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

App attribution for existing OpenRouter connections and explicit
provider configurations.

**Current behavior**

Requests can omit attribution or carry the harness identity. Paperclip
does not receive consistent credit in OpenRouter rankings.

**Proposed behavior**

Use `https://paperclip.ing`, the title `Paperclip`, and the coding
categories `cloud-agent,programming-app` for managed requests to
OpenRouter. Keep credentials, routing, and unrelated providers intact.

**Reason and benefit**

The provider URL identifies the app across personal and shared API keys.
A search of public issues and pull requests found no duplicate
attribution work. This improves existing AI connections and does not add
a separate roadmap feature.

## What Changed

- Add a shared attribution policy and a parity-checked copy for the
standalone Runner.
- Apply it to managed Codex, Claude, OpenCode, and Hermes connections,
plus native Pi and explicit legacy provider configs.
- Preserve attribution across Codex config filtering, Claude environment
filtering, OpenCode proxy requests, and model-level overrides.
- Attribute direct fast-response and decision-model requests, including
custom connections to the OpenRouter endpoint.
- Add positive and negative regression tests and provider attribution
requirements to the connector playbook.
- Advance native Pi to profile 24, preserving historical identities and
binding the attribution source in its declaration and release checks.

## Verification

- Final head `6df282d2a58c2698e41127443903d6fc85b4b72f`: all CI/status
checks passed or were intentionally skipped; Greptile is **5/5**, with
zero unresolved review threads. [Final CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39274938069).
- Focused server/shared/config suites: 132 tests passed before the final
edge-case additions. Expanded adapter suites pass 48 tests; the final
OpenCode merge passes 15 tests; global/EU/US endpoint and policy-parity
suites pass 26 tests.
- Focused Runner suites: 85 tests passed, including model overrides and
recovery/config boundaries. Profile installation/environment/config
tests subsequently passed 72 tests (one optional distribution test
skipped); historical decoding passed 11 tests and updated recovery
coverage passed 27 tests. The Rust profile admission test and all five
native Pi launch/recovery tests passed.
- All 114 managed AI connection tests pass together. They include
custom-header preservation for legacy and native Claude runs, both
OpenRouter and other gateways, inherited headers, and unresolved secret
references.
- Actual requests from installed Codex 0.160.0, Claude Code 2.1.245,
OpenCode 1.18.34, Pi 0.74.0 and 1.0.0, and the managed Hermes runtime
carried all four Paperclip headers. A local endpoint used dummy
credentials and returned an intentional 401 after capture. Codex and
Claude retry requests retained attribution. This proves outgoing header
precedence; it is not a successful model-inference test. The first
Claude capture had an argument-separation error and sent no request;
correcting the command produced the captured requests.
- A live request through `fastResponseModel` completed with `attribution
verified`. OpenRouter recorded generation
`gen-1792420273-Ez1GUTCc7YuZ1FJMCGob` under app ID `3118063`, at a cost
of $0.00000375. The public app record maps that ID to
`https://paperclip.ing/`.
- Full `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed, including a repeat
after the review fixes. The final server build stamp records commit
`6df282d2a58c2698e41127443903d6fc85b4b72f`. `pnpm check:token-gates`
passed.
- CI first caught the stale Pi source attestation; it is now a new
immutable profile. Greptile caught custom-header loss, now fixed and
covered by the complete managed-connection suite. The next CI run caught
the missing Docker allowlist entry for profile 24; the allowlist and
release smoke pins are now synchronized. Local Docker verification
cannot run because its daemon socket is absent; The exact Docker context
check passed in CI on the final head.
- The initial local `pnpm test:run` did **not** pass. It ran across
source/build edits, reported chat/tool-access collection failures, three
workspace-runtime failures, two new managed-header failures, one Dot
Runner readiness failure, and two native-session-resume failures, and
was interrupted after the final-head CI server coverage passed. Its
secrets suite also reported 91 cases skipped. The isolated tool-access
suite passed all 428 tests, and the complete managed-connection suite
passed all 114 tests. These retries establish recovery, not the cause of
the original local failures; no claim of a successful full local run is
made. Final acceptance uses immutable final-head CI plus the focused
local and live checks above.
- Final-head CI encountered one unchanged UI assertion in
`FileViewerSheet.copy.test.tsx` (missing “Copied link” feedback after
clipboard completion). That shard passed on the earlier head with
identical UI code, and all six clipboard tests passed locally. A timing
race around the asynchronous React update is suspected but not
conclusively established. The single CI retry passed, with no
product/test code changed for it. The earlier failure remains part of
this verification record.

## Risks

- Native Pi profile 24 requires a fresh provider session when
encountering a profile 23 identity; recovery tests cover that boundary.
- Harness upgrades can change header precedence. The playbook requires
actual request capture when changing provider paths.
- Externally managed agents, unmanaged harness settings, and gateways
that replace headers need separate qualification. This change does not
intercept arbitrary model calls made by task scripts.
- The existing OpenRouter entry for the Paperclip URL still displays an
old title, “PrettyFly Opus Testing,” and no categories on the final
public-page recheck. The live request received credit under that URL's
app ID. Public title propagation and leaderboard placement remain
controlled by OpenRouter.
- Global, EU, and US OpenRouter hosts are recognized explicitly; other
subdomains are not treated as OpenRouter. No database migration,
credential ownership change, or Paperclip telemetry event is involved.
Attribution contains public product constants only.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository editing, shell
execution, web research, and live API verification. The exact deployment
identifier and context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 3858d2341d fix(recovery): default saved-monitor waits and keep task recovery quiet (#16686)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - A task must keep a durable path to its next action.
> - A provider can save a task monitor, then fail to yield because it
omits internal continuation fields.
> - An interrupted provider-pack check can then be reported as permanent
artifact incompatibility.
> - The task asks its user to certify recovered workspace files, even
though this is an operator responsibility.
> - This pull request derives the saved monitor continuation, bounds
verification retries, and removes that task form.
> - Normal recovery stays quiet. Unresolved holds retain inspection and
the existing safety checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A yielded completion without `continuation` is rejected even after the
provider saves an eligible monitor on the task. Repeated attempts cannot
finish. Remote verification also treats timeouts and missing exit status
as artifact incompatibility. The task recovery notice exposes raw
diagnostics and asks the task user to certify infrastructure files.

**Expected behavior**

Use current persisted task state to fill routine continuation fields.
Retry interrupted verification reads within a fixed bound. Keep normal
recovery in the working state. Show a compact notice only when work
cannot safely continue.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Save an eligible monitor on the active task.
2. Call `paperclip_finish` with `reportedWorkDisposition: "yielded"` and
omit `continuation`.
3. Return a timed-out remote provider-pack command with empty stderr
during recovery. Inspect the resulting task notice.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Source baseline: `aaeff418cf` (master integrated with its current task
visibility and saved-source reconstruction rules).

Related changes: #15824, #16104, #16451, #16493, #16690. This fix
complements saved-result recovery and verified pack reuse. It does not
replace their workspace ownership checks.

## What Changed

- Allow omitted or null continuation at the provider input boundary.
Read current authorized task context and fill a monitor continuation
only for the bound run and an eligible saved monitor. Keep accepted
results strict. Apply this to Codex, OpenCode, both direct and
production-sidecar ACPX paths, and external drivers. Reserve the
semantic call identity during the saved-context read and reject
cancellation or a changed run/turn.
- Bind the shared completion change and continuation helper in a new
Copilot v21 source declaration. Preserve v20 history and its decoder
support. Qualification stays pending.
- Expose the eligible continuation in task context. Completion admission
still checks persisted monitor state. No schedule is created or renewed
by the default.
- Retry read-only provider verification at most twice per command. Hold
exhausted reads with a distinct verification-unavailable cause.
Reattachment cannot renew the read budget through an unchanged
provider-attempt counter. Keep completed verification failures and wrong
versions incompatible.
- Remove the task file-certification form. Hide the notice only for a
matching durable recovery path without an unknown-action replay hold.
Keep missed retries, unsafe outcomes, and unresolved file holds visible.
- Add production-component stories for automatic recovery, blocked and
expired holds, reader access, persisted repair decisions, source
reconstruction, queued continuation, and mobile. Preserve master’s
guarded saved-source reconstruction choice after confirmed source
destruction. Update the execution contract and access maps.

## Verification

- Completion, helper, Codex, OpenCode, ACPX, and profile regressions
pass. After the sidecar review fix, 271 tests across the production
sidecar and three provider suites pass, plus 72 helper/profile tests.
The real sidecar MCP bridge tests cover saved-monitor acceptance,
no-monitor refusal, cancellation, duplicate call identity, and
raw-versus-forwarded semantic receipt hashes. The OpenCode tests also
cover eligible-monitor acceptance and refusal without one.
- The fresh full native executor suite passes all 743 tests. Four
profile, installation-integrity, and ACPX driver suites pass all 168
tests. The earlier CI fingerprint failure required a new immutable
source declaration; its follow-up Docker failure required the matching
context allowlist entry. Both fixes are verified locally. Targeted
server monitor, tool authority, and provider verification suites pass.
The probe tests include a real timed-out subprocess, an unrelated
responsive timer, transport errors, and completed integrity rejections.
- All 90 tests in the merged task notice, reconstruction choice,
recovery display, and lineage suites pass. They cover reader access,
live/missed/mismatched recovery, unknown outcomes, saved messages, retry
refusal, and removal of the file form. Both review findings have
failing-baseline/passing-treatment regressions: identical polling across
retry expiry, and a failed refresh after cached running activity.
- Browser walkthrough passed for automatic recovery, unresolved details,
a 390px mobile story, and the merged saved-source reconstruction and
queued states. The reconstruction control starts disabled and normal
automatic recovery shows only Working. The stories use production
components and fixture API data. They do not prove live cloud recovery.
- Token gates, map checks, and Storybook catalog generation pass. The
exact Docker context integrity command passes locally after adding the
new build declaration to its allowlist.
- Workspace typecheck and build pass on the final source, including the
versioned identity update. The final server and UI guards pass their
focused tests, typechecks, builds, and token gates. The final standalone
Storybook builds. The saved-monitor default retains master’s stricter
child-task visibility filter. Re-review caught an additional
production-sidecar validator before forwarding; the fix now defaults at
that boundary and has passing regression controls. After preserving
master’s new reconstruction capability, 68 targeted reconstruction,
tool-authority, and provider-verification server tests pass. The
current-master integration at `2a80050a0d` has a fresh 5/5 review with
zero unresolved threads. Its complete CI matrix, including Runner tests,
is the merge acceptance record.
- On the final master integration, local typecheck, build, and all 90
recovery UI tests pass. A concurrent runner run hit five 5-second
sidecar startup timeouts; an isolated sidecar run passed 86 tests and
timed out in the unrelated unsupported-bootstrap case. Those local
deadline failures remain recorded; the canonical CI Runner lanes use
their normal deadlines and pass. The unsharded local full-suite attempt
did not complete. It spanned source edits; the fresh native executor run
above passes. An unrelated workspace fixture timed out once and then
failed to reserve 32 contiguous ports on this host. Its unchanged-base
control and CI server suite pass. Full-suite acceptance uses the fresh
latest-head CI matrix; this PR does not claim a passing unsharded local
run.

## Risks

The default applies only to an eligible persisted monitor. An explicit
invalid continuation still fails validation. The added read occurs only
when a yielded report omits its continuation. Admission rechecks current
state after that read.

An interrupted verification command can add one extra 30-second probe.
Completed rejections stay closed. These probes do not change the pack,
launch provider work, or replay external tools. Two inconclusive reads
hold the original run. They do not schedule another reattachment with an
unchanged provider-attempt counter.

This PR’s pending Copilot v21 declaration binds the changed shared
contract, resolver, direct driver, and production sidecar sources. The
previous v20 declaration is immutable and remains decodable, but launch
requires the new exact identity. Qualification remains pending.

Task users lose the file-certification form. Board-authorized
source-only repair remains available through the resolution API with the
original evidence and stop-receipt requirements. This branch does not
deploy or recover historical held runs.

> This is a bug fix and UI polish within existing recovery behavior.
ROADMAP.md was checked.

## Model Used

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 6f8ad3d77b Add verified session-local stdio MCP transport to Runner (#16526)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agent runs and their tool authority.
> - Runner supplies provider sessions with assigned MCP connections.
> - The current native connection binding supports an HTTP gateway only.
> - Execution hosts also have private local tools with stdio MCP
interfaces.

> - Providers receive the existing tool schemas and image content.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Runner can supply a native provider session with an HTTP MCP gateway,
but cannot also assign a verified local stdio MCP server without
persistent provider configuration. Execution hosts need a session-local
transport for local MCP tools, coordination for calls sharing a
resource, and native schema/image delivery. The pinned native Codex
client drops MCP images when `structuredContent` is also present.

**Proposed solution**

Add general stdio MCP transport support using host-assigned executable
digests, arguments, environment and a private Unix socket identifying
the shared resource. Tool implementations supply their own schemas and
responses; Runner forwards their native MCP schemas and content.
Register the transport for the current provider session. Serialize calls
across processes, keep unknown outcomes fenced, and authorize assigned
native Codex tools without a new prompt while routing explicit tool
confirmations through existing PRP permission requests. Retain the HTTP
gateway and applicable permission policy.

**Alternatives considered**

Reimplementing tools or translating their actions into provider-specific
APIs would tie the transport to individual tool implementations. Global
provider config would leak session assignments. Shell commands alone do
not deliver native MCP images or preserve MCP approval requests.

**Roadmap alignment**

This completes the existing Runner transport boundary. Related: #10690
(operator config for the legacy ACPX engine), #11605 (gateway delivery
of installed stdio connections), #16486 (preconfigured provider homes).
This change assigns local tools on the execution host and leaves those
administration paths intact.

## What Changed

- Add reserved, verified stdio bindings for native Codex and through the
shared ACPX runtime. ACPX clients must support stdio MCP assignments.
Read-only sessions omit the binding. No home/project config is
rewritten.
- Run the backend with only its assigned environment through the
verified executable launch path.
- Serialize all calls sharing a private Unix socket across sessions.
Metadata remains responsive. Queued cancellation prevents execution;
active calls remain fenced until acknowledgement. Unknown outcomes
require a resource restart.
- Authorize host-assigned native Codex tools without a new per-call
prompt, matching existing execution-host shell utilities. Preserve
explicit tool deny/prompt rules. Route requested MCP tool confirmations
through one-time PRP approvals, bound to the active thread and turn.
Keep shell escalation disabled and existing tool deny rules effective.
ACPX adapters retain their applicable ACPX permission policy.
- Preserve schemas and image blocks. For native Codex 0.160/0.162,
retain structured metadata as MCP text on image-bearing results to avoid
the client's image-loss bug. ACPX adapters receive the original
response.
- Document transport authority, cancellation and recovery limits.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed with pnpm 9.15.4 and Rust
1.97.1 on macOS arm64.
- Before Apex, full `paperclip-runner-core` Rust tests passed. After the
fixes, all 379 library tests and eight subprocess tests using a generic
stdio MCP fixture pass. Those subprocess tests cover schema/image
passthrough, assigned-only environment, executable drift, call
serialization, cancellation and unknown outcomes. The native Codex suite
passed 91 tests with two intentionally ignored;
`receipt_limit_rejects_the_call_and_keeps_polling_when_interrupt_fails`
timed out waiting for `turn.interrupted`, including an isolated retry.
The unchanged pre-fix commit `80917b301a2309f7966a466cf0c198a2112be2d5`
reproduces the same timeout in isolation; this local native-suite run is
not claimed as fully passing.
- All 252 native controller tests pass against the final narrowed
approval branch. Focused TypeScript transport/permission suites passed
(298 tests); final binding, read-only host, policy and adapter checks
passed (105 tests).
- **Provider-client smoke coverage:** pinned Codex 0.160.0 through
native Runner and Claude SDK 0.3.286 used local stdio MCP servers and
loopback model API fixtures without live model credentials. These
clients define the smoke-test coverage; this is not an exhaustive
adapter compatibility test. Image responses reached the next model
request as typed image blocks. Native Codex checks also verified
unattended execution without approval requests, explicit per-tool prompt
denial without backend execution, disabled-tool rules, and stale-turn
approval rejection.
- Two Greptile concurrency findings were reproduced with failing
subprocess tests and fixed: pending cancellation under output
backpressure, and a ctime-based fence reset after chmod. Initial checks
exposed Codex CLI option-scope and key-quoting errors, which were
corrected. The existing ordinary elicitation regression also exposed an
overly broad request branch; the final branch handles explicit tool
approvals only.
- `pnpm test:run` was attempted. The broad local server suite hit
persistent embedded PostgreSQL startup failures and unrelated local Git
fixture failures; it was stopped with the failure log retained. Those
local results are not claimed as passing. Hosted Linux CI gates passed
on the reviewed runtime commit, as recorded below.
- First Apex review found three additional defects, now fixed with
regressions: keep the resource-lock socket snapshot instead of sampling
the socket twice; project native permission requests with durable
turn/item IDs while retaining provider IDs in details; validate provider
response conversion before marking a request as settling. The retry
regression failed before the fix. Focused Codex request/adapter checks
pass (23 tests), server permission projection passes (16 tests), and all
379 Runner library tests pass. The broader database-backed bridge suite
was attempted but its local PostgreSQL setup timed out; 29 tests did not
execute. This local failure is retained, not claimed as passing.
- Runtime acceptance before the documentation clarification, on
`bd4fccae001157beb5bc76ff17c1920a5db3105a`: standard Greptile 5/5, then
Apex 5/5 with no unresolved threads; all 60 checks complete successfully
or intentionally skip. Ten CI jobs were interrupted by the same runner
shutdown, including one stale job that required cancellation before
retry; the same-commit retry passed. Hosted Rust tests also pass,
including the native suite with the local baseline timeout noted above.
- `git diff --check`, map validation, and pre-push secret/PII scan
passed.

## Risks

- No live model account or deployment isolation qualification was run.
The loopback fixture proves the actual vendor-client request format, not
model interpretation.
- Stdio MCP support uses the current host-assignment contract: each
binding requires a verified executable and a private Unix socket
identifying the serialized resource. Other platforms retain the HTTP
path. No provider version was upgraded.
- A lost acknowledgement blocks subsequent calls until the host restarts
the assigned resource. Direct shell calls are outside this MCP fence and
retain the existing shell policy.
- Preconfigured Claude remains unattended and denies interactive
approval requests. Host assignment authorizes native Codex local tools;
it must be supplied only for sessions already authorized to use the
resource.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with reasoning and repository/tool execution. The
session does not expose a more specific model identifier or
context-window size.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip fa9f3f8a08 feat(runner): support preconfigured user homes for Codex and ACPX (#16486)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Runner launches the selected provider and keeps durable session
state.
> - Runner currently prepares private provider homes for each session.
> - Operators can already have working login, skills, and MCP
configuration on the execution machine.
> - This PR adds an explicit mode that uses that existing setup.
> - Runner keeps its task bridge and session ownership while leaving the
user's configuration in place.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation:** Rebuilding a provider home is unnecessary
when the execution account is already configured.

**Proposed solution:** Add `homeMode: "preconfigured"` to Runner adapter
config and runnerd transport options. Keep `"isolated"` as the default.
Initially support native Codex and ACPX Claude.

**Alternatives considered:** Continue copying user configuration into a
private home, or add an approval workflow. Both add work outside this
feature's scope.

**Roadmap alignment:** This extends the existing cross-provider Runner.
It does not add another runtime.

Related work: #14056 covers managed Codex credentials. #14474 covers
command environment delivery. This mode uses user-owned credentials and
retains the existing launch boundaries.

## What Changed

- Add a closed v7 launch contract for the selected home mode. Existing
contracts retain their behavior.
- Keep homeMode under operator control. Reject task overrides and
agent-authenticated changes, including removal through replacements,
adapter changes, or rollback. Ignore stored task values and exclude it
from automatic hire inheritance.
- Skip managed AI login, assigned-skill materialization, and external
MCP setup in preconfigured mode. Preserve the Runner task/completion
bridge.
- Keep protocol state and provider lifetime fences scoped to the Runner
session. Different sessions can share a home.
- Fail preconfigured ACPX planning/read-only launches before provider
admission until a read-only user-home launch is qualified. Use isolated
mode or native Codex for planning.
- Reject ACPX approval requests. Keep native Codex on `never`. Local
permission rules and hooks remain effective. Initially require the
default Runner ACPX `approve-all` setting; other Runner policies are
unqualified in this mode and fail before launch.
- Keep the internal ACPX bridge in a stable session namespace,
preserving an existing user MCP server named `paperclip`.
- Reject preconfigured ACPX Codex before launch until a session
permission profile can enforce Runner-state denial. Remove the
unprotected full-access mode switch; use native Codex or isolated mode
for that model family.
- Bump Pi to profile 23 because its attestation covers shared Runner
source changed here. Preserve profile 22 for historical recovery, and
update Docker/package verification inputs.
- Fence recovery on mode and home bindings. Fail missing
provider-history recovery without starting a replacement session.
Exclude the external Codex home from backups and credential cleanup.
- Discover remote HOME on the execution machine. Do not project
controller HOME or XDG paths onto it.
- Separate task instructions from Codex ACP isolation and update the
generated provider digest.
- Keep remote configured-environment manifests consistent when dropping
controller paths. Preserve exact Claude model IDs through per-launch
environment settings, without editing the user home or patching the
provider.

## Verification

- Targeted local checks cover native contracts and launch allowlists,
user-config preservation, provider admission, permissions, session
recovery, remote environment projection, heartbeat preparation, and
operator-only configuration. Runner, shared, and server TypeScript
checks and the Rust binary build pass; generated ACPX profiles are
current.
- Following the latest master integration, all 757 server
configuration/executor tests and 115 Runner admission/recovery tests
passed. Additional review-fix checks passed: 103 planning contract/host
tests, 78 provider-backend tests, 95 route/preparation/inheritance
tests, 43 task-validator tests, and 43 workspace-policy tests. Counts
describe separate runs and can overlap.
- The real pinned Claude ACP/SDK regression reproduces exact-model
aliasing without the fix (`claude-sonnet-5-5` becomes `sonnet`) and
passes with the fix. All 89 adapter tests pass. User settings remain
byte-for-byte unchanged.
- Localhost-only Claude SDK probes with synthetic credentials verify the
private bridge runs, local `ask` reaches the existing reject callback,
local `deny` blocks without a callback, and a user MCP server named
`paperclip` remains available. No user model allowlist is required.
- Review regressions cover fail-closed provider admission, saved-mode
recovery before routing, controller-home path removal without
configured-environment manifest drift, pre-launch rejection of
unqualified read-only ACPX launches, and denial of task/agent changes to
the operator-owned home mode.
- Before rebase, `d4d4ee2aebe4cb88c4f4d9ef8e22fed4b36b87be` received
standard Greptile 5/5 with no unresolved threads. Prior Apex findings
are fixed and covered by regressions. No manual Greptile retrigger is
requested for this rebase, per reviewer direction.
- The prior PR head and master hit the same GitHub runner encoding crash
in workspace-b on three PR attempts, including diagnostic logging
([prior PR
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38818474563/job/116714538405),
[prior master
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38819528748/job/116712423193)).
Rebased onto `origin/master` at `c3ffa3f0dd` to pull in its bridge-test
index correction. The rebased head
`edd153db410bea063b645e0000aa68649f287b00` passes all CI checks ([CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38824676914)),
including workspace-b. Greptile's automatic standard review is 5/5 on
this exact head, with no unresolved threads; no manual review was
requested.
- Local workspace-b investigation passed 911 shared tests and 3,868
tests across the remaining 15 workspace projects. The catalog run
separately hit an existing ignored
`.agents/skills/design-guide/SKILL.md` description-budget violation in
this checkout; that file is untracked, outside the PR, and left
untouched. Repeating shared tests with CI reporting enabled also passed.
- Rebase verification: the final Git tree exactly matches the previously
reviewed branch combined with current master. All 192 Runner
admission/contract tests, 61 server preparation/provider tests, and 68
bridge tests pass, as do Runner/server TypeScript and generated-profile
checks. The real Claude adapter fixture hit an `ENOTEMPTY` cleanup race
on its initial run; all 89 adapter tests passed on retry.
- Apex on rebased head `edd153db` returned 2/5: ACPX Codex selected full
access without enforcing Runner-state denial, and agent configuration
replacement could remove the operator mode. Both are fixed in
`26e14dbbf`. Preconfigured ACPX Codex is temporarily unqualified;
re-enabling it requires session permission enforcement on thread/turn
operations and a real filesystem-denial probe. The config guard covers
effective replacements, adapter changes, and rollback while allowing
ordinary agent merges and operator removal. All 190 focused Runner
tests, 103 server tests, both typechecks, and generated-profile checks
pass. Standard review and CI passed before the next Apex request.
- CI on `26e14dbbf` passed 1,967 Runner-shard tests but hit the
previously observed `ENOTEMPTY` fixture cleanup race after successful
Claude model admission. `eb83284fb` adds bounded filesystem retries to
that fixture's teardown; all 87 adapter tests pass. Assertions and
production cleanup behavior are unchanged. Head
`eb83284fb42ee19a15d9a93b106c1bbb07e1695e` passes all 59 CI checks ([CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38829500857))
and standard Greptile at 5/5 with no unresolved threads. Apex also
completed at **5/5** on that exact head ([Apex
result](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/16486#issuecomment-6201559527)).
All review threads are resolved, the branch has no merge conflicts, and
the PR remains unmerged.
- No live paid-provider or remote-machine smoke was performed. The
lockfile remains unchanged under the repository's refresh-bot policy;
local dependency installation resolved the changed patch hash.

## Risks

This explicit opt-in grants Codex tools access to the execution home
(read-only in planning), including credentials. Native Codex separately
denies Runner-owned protocol state. ACPX Claude retains its existing
provider trust boundary, and the isolated default is unchanged.
Providers may refresh credentials and update their own metadata.

User configuration can block tools or the completion reporter. Existing
blocked results and failure diagnostics remain the recovery path. Edit
the local settings and retry; no new approval workflow is added.

External provider history remains on the execution machine and is not
backed up by Runner. Remote HOME discovery requires `getent` and fails
explicitly when unavailable. Other harnesses need separate
qualification.

The Codex ACP bundle digest changes. Existing sessions tied to the old
bundle may need a fresh session. No database migration is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with reasoning and code execution. The exact
runtime model ID was not exposed.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip ec3eb1968b feat(runner): expose credential updates through PRP (#16463)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Runner uses PRP to send harness events to the host.
> - A harness can replace its stored OAuth tokens during a run.
> - The host has no PRP signal that tells it to read the updated
credential.
> - This pull request adds a durable credential update event and
observers for supported stores.
> - The host can react before it acknowledges the event. Token values
stay outside PRP.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

`packages/paperclip-runner`: native provider execution, PRP schemas, and
host event delivery.

**Problem or motivation**

A Paperclip host that consumes PRP needs to react when a harness changes
its refresh-token credential. Existing credential copy-back paths do not
provide a common event during a warm session.

**Proposed solution**

Add `auth.credentials.updated` as a P0 runner event. Include only the
provider, binding ID, revision, and detection method. Observe native
Codex and Codex/Grok ACPX credential files. Retain each pending event
across runner restart until the durable outbox accepts it. Raw PRP
consumers opt in with `observeCredentials: true` before session open.
The bundled transport opts in for fresh sessions.

**Alternatives considered**

`harness.diagnostic` would mix a runner observation with harness
diagnostics. Sending token values through PRP would expose credentials
to event logs. Both approaches are unnecessary.

**Roadmap alignment**

I checked `ROADMAP.md`. This change extends the existing Runner protocol
and does not duplicate a planned core feature.

**Additional context**

Refs: #11094, #14056, #12696. These describe credential copy-back and
staging work. This PR adds the notification contract. It does not
replace those private credential channels or claim to fix their full
scope.

## What Changed

- Add strict credential update payload validation to PRP v1, v2, and v3.
Regenerate validators, the manifest, and the event catalog.
- Watch supported credential directories with `notify`. Add a periodic
read as a fallback and check at terminal and close boundaries.
- Persist a private baseline and pending event together. Notify on
account identity changes and retain the new baseline for later
refreshes. Ignore incomplete files, unsafe files, and metadata changes.
- Forward the event through the host transport. Test commit-before-ACK
delivery and replay.
- Commit pending runner observations before suspend and shutdown
commands complete. Preserve the provider event backlog.
- Create the private ACPX runtime directory before configuring
observation. Cover fresh session startup with observation enabled.
- Fence asynchronous PRP commits to the current authenticated connection
and run authority. Ignore replaced callbacks while preserving the
maintenance drain of admitted work.
- Deliver observations found during final provider cleanup before
clearing terminal recovery state. Retain the outbox and recovery state
when the host ACK is lost.
- Advance the pending Copilot candidate profile to v19 for the changed
shared PRP source hashes. Preserve its v18 history and pending
qualification status. Include the current fixture in the Docker build
context.
- Commit credential updates through an awaited host callback before PRP
ACK, including during idle and close. Persist them in a separate run-log
source namespace with company, agent, session, and runner checks.
- Preserve public event metadata through server redaction. Register the
event in task run details.
- Document opt-in behavior, supported stores, event semantics, and the
local run-log path.

## Verification

- All 45 durable runner control tests and 24 native executor integration
tests pass.
- Ten Rust credential observer tests pass. They cover atomic
replacement, polling, recovery, account-only changes and later refreshes
for Codex and Grok, unsafe files, fresh runtime creation, and the Grok
close handoff. Account identity stays private.
- The full Runner TypeScript suite passes: 3,565 tests in 221 files. An
additional 12 tests are skipped by the suite.
- All 214 focused tests pass for the contract, Codex event routing,
catalog, and durable host delivery.
- All 13 Node protocol contract tests pass.
- The exact Docker context integrity command passes: `docker buildx
build --file .github/docker-context-checks.Dockerfile .`.
- Rust formatting and generated protocol checks pass.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. The full local `pnpm
test:run` was attempted with CI-compatible `init.defaultBranch=master`,
then stopped after a reproducible failure outside this change:
`git-workspace-expiration.test.ts` expects one re-expired workspace but
gets zero. The same case fails in isolation on this macOS checkout. Full
repository validation is provided by CI; the focused Runner and host
tests pass locally.
- All 253 native transport and restart tests pass against the final
release binary.
- All 3 durable recovery tests and 139 candidate profile and native
admission tests pass.
- All 41 host redaction and task protocol surface tests pass. `pnpm
check:token-gates` passes.
- All 467 CI policy tests pass, including the 15 CI profiling tests. The
upstream secret-reference test fix is retained from master. No workflow
changes are included.

- The Apex host-delivery fix passes 381 targeted Runner tests, six host
database tests, repository typecheck, and the production build. The
Runner tests cover commit-before-ACK, retry after a rejected host
commit, warm attachment, and close after the turn queue ends.
- Prior head `2f125cfcb` passed CI, standard Greptile 5/5, and Apex 5/5.
One CI shard was interrupted by GitHub runner shutdown; its single rerun
passed. Both Apex findings are addressed: idle/cleanup host delivery and
late callback reconnect fencing. Current head `5db78f082` passes CI (56
successful statuses and four optional skips) and standard Greptile 5/5.
Apex review of the account-change update is 5/5 on this exact head, with
no actionable issues.
- All 121 durable control-plane and credential callback tests pass,
including account-only change delivery, subsequent refresh on the new
account during close, host commit retry, late success/failure races,
forward cursor delivery on a replacement connection, and the existing
maintenance retirement contract. All 27 native provider and durable
recovery integration tests pass after the account-change update.

## Risks

- File changes signal a stored credential update. They do not prove that
an OAuth refresh succeeded. Changes between reads can be combined.
- Unix Codex and Codex/Grok ACPX stores are supported. Other harnesses
and credentials held only in memory need their own integration.
- Hosts must update their event schemas before opting in. Older hosts
omit the flag and receive no new event. Older runners ignore the flag.
- The host must use its existing private credential channel and account
checks to read or copy the token. Account switches trigger notification
but do not authorize accepting the new account. The event grants no
credential access.
- Tests use synthetic credentials. No live OAuth refresh has been
forced.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, exact model ID `gpt-6.1-sol`, with high reasoning effort,
repository inspection, tool use, and code execution. The session does
not expose its context window size.

DottaandPaperclip b8ffeb973a feat(runner): add experimental Grok Bot agent participation (#16219)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents that perform work for a company.
> - The shared Runner owns task admission, authority, receipts and
finalization.
> - An existing Grok Bot needs to receive assignments and return results
through that Runner.
> - The Bot also needs governed access when it starts work from its own
conversation.
> - This PR adds agent-purpose MCP access and routine webhook dispatch.
> - It reuses the external-agent Rust Runner and keeps Grok capabilities
explicit.
> - The provider stays experimental until the real-client managed
journeys pass.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Agent or provider**
Grok Bot, distinct from the Grok Build coding runtime in #13882.

**Why this adapter is useful**
Users can assign work to an existing Bot, receive progress, questions,
documents and files in Paperclip, and let the Bot initiate work under
its agent permissions.

**How the agent is invoked**
A webhook-only routine delivers bounded references. Dedicated
named-agent OAuth and MCP provide inbound calls. Setup follows [Grok
routines](https://cursor.com/help/grok-bot/routines) and [custom
plugins](https://cursor.com/help/grok-bot/connect-plugins). The current
desktop app needs its Bot-generated Webhook URL navigation link when
routine-row clicks fail.

The GitHub search found related Grok Build runtime work, but no existing
Grok Bot agent provider. This extends the roadmap’s existing agent,
Runner, governance and artifact foundations.

## What Changed

- Add default-off Grok Bot participation through the shared real Rust
external backend, preserving native provider identity guarantees and
distinguishing session closure from remote termination.
- Bind agent OAuth to company, agent, client, gateway and authorizer;
recheck permissions and task-bound execution authority without
manufacturing a native identity.
- Persist routine configuration, dispatch intents, authenticated
acknowledgement and recovery holds. Store URL/key together in encrypted
secret storage, use guarded public egress, and never automatically
replay ambiguous HTTP delivery.
- Reuse native tools, durable waiting, completion assessment and review.
Add task-bound file grants through existing artifact storage; suppress
proactive echo dispatch and synchronous result wake loops.
- Enforce the current native deliverable work-mode policy at file-ticket
issuance and use. Add operator retries for confirmed rejected wakes,
with retained receipts, stable retry intent and current-authority
checks. Recovery locks bindings before routine rows. Thread Stop
resolves the selected run and its agent.
- Cancel queued and preparing Stop targets before assignment creation,
restore saved setup after a failed request and successful retry, and
publish the Grok provider descriptor schema. Advance the versioned
Copilot source declaration for the shared schema change; its
qualification remains pending.
- Filter task summaries with the shared privacy policy, preserve
feedback admission when wake delivery is blocked, reconcile settled
delivery receipts without restoring work authority, and bind every Stop
control to its displayed run. Recovery records distinguish dispatch
uncertainty from a revoked session.
- Add resumable guided setup, credential replacement, consent,
management, observed work status and stop/recovery controls, plus an
interactive Storybook journey using the production task thread, question
form and report card. Grok’s own apps remain available; Paperclip
workspace and third-party tools are deferred.

## Verification

- Five focused protocol, authorization, person MCP and Runner files: 192
tests pass. The Grok assigned-work case executes the actual Rust Runner,
saves a document, uploads/deduplicates a file and reaches ordinary
finalization.
- Proactive intake/deduplication and renewed-session recovery pass.
These use scripted clients and synthetic storage; they are not
real-provider acceptance.
- Repository typecheck, production build, token gates, map checks and
Storybook build/catalog checks pass. The local full-suite campaign was
stopped after macOS shared-memory exhaustion repeatedly prevented
embedded PostgreSQL startup. No local aggregate pass is claimed. The
first clean-worker CI run identified avatar fixture/configuration, flag
defaults, feature-card ordering and OpenAPI route-coverage gaps; all
four focused regressions pass after correction. Those regressions pass.
The latest clean-worker CI run also found a Copilot source-hash
declaration mismatch after the shared descriptor update; the corrected
declaration passes all 28 integrity tests. The next review corrections
pass 144 rendered UI tests, 21 OpenAPI tests and 82 Runner
contract/integrity/history tests. The latest database fixtures were
blocked at startup by host shared-memory exhaustion; clean-worker CI
must execute their new regressions. Full current-head CI now passes: 54
successful checks and four intentional skips. The database regression
uses the PostgreSQL driver result shape; file-policy, rejected-feedback
and lock-order cases pass on clean workers. Current-head Greptile is 5/5
with no unresolved findings.
- Rendered setup steps and outbound-only verification were walked
through in Storybook. Simulation cannot enable Done without an
authenticated-reply state.
- Actual client OAuth, continued access, reconnect and one routine wake
with an exact chat acknowledgement were observed separately. This
candidate’s live authenticated challenge, assigned/proactive workflows,
Linux managed artifact, restart and cleanup are not yet qualified. The
provider stays disabled by default.
- The separate Cloud ingress change forwards only exact task-bound
upload/download paths and preserves host identity and header stripping.
- Current Cloud policy reserves Test for pre-merge app/harness
experiments; Staging accepts only master-derived revisions. Real-client
qualification needs a supported, authorized deployment target and
remains outstanding.

## Risks

One append-only migration adds routine/dispatch state and extends shared
bindings and file tickets. The unshipped migrations were regenerated
after upstream consumed their original numbers. Rolling back code
retains the durable rows; revoke grants and inspect unknown remote
activity before resuming dispatch. Grok cannot confirm remote
termination, stream its complete transcript or report spending. Plugins
are account-wide and do not isolate credentials between Bots.
Real-client managed acceptance remains required before enabling the
experimental provider.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex based on GPT-6, with reasoning, code execution and
browser/native UI tools. The exact deployment model ID and
context-window size are not exposed by this runtime.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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