DottaandPaperclip 124b2cd0ad fix(server): certify background deadlines for idle tenants (#19001)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Background services own future checks, retries, and recovery work.
> - An idle tenant can stop only when a durable wake covers its
remaining duties.
> - The current alarm catalog covers several domains but leaves these
owners blocked.
> - A saved future timestamp alone cannot prove that reconstruction or
admitted work has settled.
> - This pull request binds durable domain snapshots to the actual
registered worker revisions.
> - The tenant can hand off supported future duties and retain all
checks for uncertain or active work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No matching public issue was found. Related work: [domain deadline
handoff #18656](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18656),
[owned blocker diagnostics
#18632](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18632), and
[completed history proof
#18646](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18646). The
separate [native idle-session change
#18988](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18988) covers
runtime retirement. [Far-future retry re-probes
#13534](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/13534) changes
recovery responsiveness after an upstream success; this change preserves
existing retry decisions.

**What happened?**

Future status-card, external-object, skill-sync, watchdog, retry, and
quota duties lacked complete owner-bound coverage in the idle deadline
proof. A completed quota task could also retain its monitor policy and
timestamp and remain blocked after the scheduler had disarmed it.

**Expected behavior**

A settled registered owner can hand off its exact supported future
deadline. Active work, dirty reconstruction, transaction uncertainty,
changed revisions, claims, unknown state, and unsupported duties keep
the tenant awake. Completed history retains its data and stops recurring
work when the owner has no remaining duty.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Produce a supported future duty through its normal service.
2. Let the registered worker finish reconstruction and admitted work.
3. Request an owned idle report with the negotiated domain deadline
catalog.
4. Check the saved earliest deadline and generation before durable alarm
registration.
5. Stop and reconstruct the worker. Check that ordinary admission and
claims resume useful work once due.
6. Complete a quota task. Keep its saved policy and timestamp. Check
that linked unfinished work still blocks sleep and that settled history
does not.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The owned patch was qualified at
`699c8569fa34338dd75cdc5731381ec1e2efdb45`. Publication head
`491fac368ee72eaac8ae105d53e6bf6b305d8a6a` normally merges actual master
`039e0dad2c51c80251e1302a19c5566e039c357a`. All 43 owned files are
byte-identical. All 29 new upstream paths are preserved. The later
normal current-master integration is
`8c912e1ba4fc66397a7341ade59373af8075068f`, described separately below.

**Deployment mode**

Source checkout with real PostgreSQL 17 and a controlled local Node
process. No deployed alarm, tenant suspension, database suspension, or
fleet result is claimed.

## What Changed

- Add registered-worker reconciliation revisions and invalidate them on
stop.
- Keep status-card, external-object, and skill deadline interpretation
with their owners.
- Reuse the watchdog classifier against the supplied database snapshot.
- Validate the exact saved retry run and paired queued wake.
- Validate legacy quota source bindings and the current assignee or
reviewer policy.
- Preserve common issue scope, dependency, sibling, and state checks for
covered waits.
- Compose normalized owner snapshots within the existing bounded
deadline proof and recheck revisions after inspection.
- Bind actual service and worker instances from server startup. Missing
bindings preserve existing blockers.
- Retain completed quota policy and timestamps while independently
rejecting linked unfinished runs or wakes.
- Block unconsumed budget evaluation inputs through the owning queue
predicate. Accounting policy and settlement stay unchanged.
- Bind completed quota history through fixed-size UUID-array parameters,
preserve exact company/task/source associations, and guard external
references before the run-ID join.
- Batch watchdog subtrees and shared classifier facts without changing
the 64-query or two-second proof budget; preserve exact company pairing
for first-run evidence.
- Extend production-path regression controls and document supported
coverage and limits.

## Verification

Current integration head: `688abc6cac6016b9fb50e5832f81e2975ed5d49f`.
Fresh exact-head checks completed with **58 successes, three intentional
skips and one neutral review**, including aggregate `ci / verify`. The
complete current Greptile review is **5/5**. The complete current
Ponytail verdict is **Ship (4/5)**, with only optional cleanup of an
unused MCP proof input; both prior correctness findings are resolved.
All review threads and nested pages were inspected. The normal master
merges preserve the registered retry deadline owner and current startup
completion log after the same readiness await. The earlier focused
evidence below remains tied to its tested source revisions.


Current-master integration `8c912e1ba4fc66397a7341ade59373af8075068f`:

- Normally merge actual master
`46fb933b0155d183ce64a8bdc4950d1b58c926f6`. Every nonoverlapping tree
blob retains its owning parent across 14,044 paths. All 42 owner-only
files and 15 critical binding/proof/readiness files remain
byte-identical. Three automatic overlaps preserve the existing watchdog
binding, conservative unavailable-reader fallback and optional actual
owner arguments. The two scoped-deadline conflicts retain the entire
upstream resource-reservation/mid-pass admission/abort algorithm inside
the existing reconciliation revision/running/failure fence, with both
parent test sets.
- Actual TypeScript 7.0.2 server noEmit passed in 9.434 seconds, normal
source declaration layers in 12.102 seconds, and four selected
test/helper/config layers extending the actual CI configuration in 3.167
seconds. No compiler option weakening, heap override, donor declarations
or SDK replacement stub.
- Focused PG0 controls passed: 102 scheduler/proof/owner controls in
16.451 seconds, including all 21 scoped-deadline cases; 121 startup
controls; and all 107 unchanged instance-settings route cases in 6.456
seconds. The latter first hit a local prewire-guard
listener-registration race. Only the ignored guard was corrected to
register the same actual OS-bound server port immediately after native
listen returns. Closed, unknown, foreign, offhost and PG destinations
remain blocked. Original failure evidence is retained; product code and
assertions were unchanged.
- The exact current UI policy command now reports zero findings (0.362
seconds); its seven scanner controls pass. The earlier dependent PR used
an old scanner/source baseline under a newly enforcing trusted workflow
and reported 397 findings. Carrying the genuine current master resolves
that mismatch without editing unrelated UI sites or relaxing the gate.
- Every meaningful worker checked its executing PID/thread/preload hash
and matching receipt. PG0 controls opened no PostgreSQL sockets; all
owned processes exited. Original dependency-cache/DNS, ignored-harness
syntax/type and guard failures remain separate from product results.
- This is fresh semantic and focused runtime qualification, not a local
whole-repository or current-head PostgreSQL acceptance rerun. The
upstream workspace-busy parked-retry/terminal-holder notification path
remains unchanged by this merge and needs its separate current-graph
producer check. Historical six-case/scale results below stay tied to
their measured sources. A matching controlled default-cadence follow-up
is in #19191; no fresh current-head two-cycle or deployed suspension
claim follows from this merge.
- All 59 exact-head check contexts now pass (55 success, one neutral,
three intentional skips), plus the legacy security status. The complete
edited Greptile review is 5/5 for this exact commit, with all
root/nested pages inspected and no unresolved threads. Ponytail stopped
without completing its new turn; it supplied no new verdict or finding.
Prior actual findings remain addressed. Earlier scores/checks below
belong to their explicit earlier commits.


On frozen clean merged source `699c8569fa`:

- Real PostgreSQL acceptance: **6/6 passed**,83.483 seconds wall. Actual
retry producer creates the exact saved run/wake; stopped and
reconstructed owner resumes through current admission, one durable
start, real local process output and normal task completion. Includes
cancellation, drain arrival, retained quota history with queued-run/wake
negatives, watchdog review settlement and budget-input
empty/pending/consumed control using the actual owner.
- Affected coordinator, deadline, scoped-deadline, recovery and
composed-proof controls: **78/78 in five files passed**,32.114 seconds
wall, worker 1/no file parallelism.
- `pnpm exec tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json`: **passed**,17.467
seconds. Native TypeScript 7.0.2 and Node 24.22.2.
- PostgreSQL tests use one dedicated test database, matching
fixture/admin URLs, pool limit four, one worker, and no embedded
fallback. Every run recorded unchanged source hashes and a clean
checkout.
- The eight-second real-clock retry is a domain execution check. It is
below the Cloud minimum wake lead and is not a positive accepted hosted
sleep cycle.
- The completed quota-history product failure and original
fixture/protocol failures were preserved; the owning-reader fix passed a
real PostgreSQL red/green regression before the fresh merged six-case
pass.
- After runtime completion, the dedicated database had zero other
clients and no owned runtime processes. All three qualification process
PIDs exited. The coordinator independently audits and drops the
database.
- Comment-only cleanup has equal strict TypeScript parser ASTs across 15
files. The final lexical audit finds no added comments relative to
actual master. `git diff --check` passed.
- Earlier retry fixtures omitted responsible-user membership, advanced
JavaScript time past the real PostgreSQL lease clock, or produced stdout
without normal task completion. Corrected fixtures use real membership,
an eight-second real deadline, and ordinary task comment/completion. The
last case exposed legitimate disposition repair rather than duplicate
retry promotion.
- The quota and watchdog controls first ran before admitted work or the
existing 30-second reconstruction duty settled. The stronger tests
require an interim blocked report and then exact settled-owner proof.
Production deadlines were not changed. The separate
completed-quota-history defect was fixed in its reader and verified with
linked unfinished-run and wake controls.
- The status/object and skill owners reviewed the actual final startup,
route and post-backup bindings. Their domain source evidence carries
where token-equivalent. The master coordinator coalescing change was
reviewed separately. Historical domain PostgreSQL results are not
presented as fresh full-suite results on this head.

The later master merge adds retry predecessor cleanup checks under the
existing issue claim lock. The source audit confirms unchanged saved
deadlines and run/wake identities. The three actual retry
lifecycle/cancellation/drain cases passed on the batched candidate with
this parent (31.817 seconds). Those local dependency controls preceded
the current exact-head remote run. Native backup preservation and
TestOps changes from master are retained. No pass is inferred for
changed dependency behavior solely from unchanged owned files.

Review repair published as `643f1e7400`:

- The original reader returned `unknown` after seven actual watchdog
reviews settled across seven companies. The unchanged composed-report
regression passed after batching; the final reader passed in 61.841
seconds, including active queued-work and stopped-owner rejection.
- A separate two-company red/green control rejects terminal-run context
from another company as first-run grace evidence. Shared facts are
serialized once, with per-root IDs and review summaries.
- The affected recovery, proof and diagnostic unit controls passed 47/47
(14.575 seconds). Startup owner-contract fixtures passed 121/121 (10.589
seconds).
- Diagnostic PostgreSQL controls passed7/7 (12.406 seconds), including
the normal budget-input producer and its exact blocker reason. Initial
empty-state setup uses the same cleanup as per-case teardown when a
dedicated test database is reused.
- Actual repository `pnpm exec tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json`
passed 12.710 seconds with no heap override. Final source has no added
code comments; whitespace checks pass.
- The original query-budget failure, two-company discriminator, initial
cross-suite fixture failure and an interrupted incorrect local-driver
selector are retained separately. The interrupted run is not a pass.
Independent cleanup found zero owned clients or runtime processes.

Quota-scale repair published as `6696a37f8a`:

- The exact 10,000-row completed-history case reproduced
`MAX_PARAMETERS_EXCEEDED`:90,002 bound parameters exceeded the driver's
65,534 limit, and the composed report returned `unknown` despite settled
owners. Original failure and actual driver diagnostics are retained.
- Fixed pending-work queries use three typed UUID-array parameters plus
the result limit, keeping exact company/issue/source tuple bindings. The
primary run-ID column stays uncast; a guarded CASE validates the raw
external reference before conversion. The 10,000-row cap and
64-query/two-second proof budget are unchanged.
- The same 10,000-row composed-report case passed 18.860 seconds, with
unfinished run/wake rejection, malformed-reference safety and
conservative 10,001-row overflow. Its fixture derives retained history
from the actual quota producer and normal task completion, expands valid
persisted issue/source pairs, then starts the actual registered owners.
- The existing actual quota producer case passed 14.187 seconds,
including exact future deadline, retained completion history, unfinished
work, real foreign-company source references and noncanonical/malformed
references.
- Affected owner/proof controls passed 22/22 (26.444 seconds).
Production server noEmit passed 16.039 seconds.
- CI on 643 identified TS7034/TS7005 in the settled-watchdog fixture's
initially untyped collection. It is now explicitly typed. A separate
affected-entry semantic check extending the repository's actual
`server/src/__tests__/tsconfig.json` passed 15.093 seconds: six affected
tests, two owner files, ambient declarations and current imported
source, with unchanged strict/module/lib/path settings. The production
server config excludes that test directory and is not presented as
test-layer proof. No custom suppression or replacement SDK stub was
added.
- All runs were sequential with pool max 4, worker 1,
source/config/command hashes and cleared inherited
provider/LIVE/other-database variables. Cleanup found zero owned
database clients or local runtime processes. At prior head
`6696a37f8a5718cd0f79054969a0084462d41d47`, all required CI gates pass.
The exact-head inventory has 55 successes, one neutral review and three
intentional skips. Greptile is 5/5. The complete latest Ponytail verdict
confirms the quota finding is fixed; its only remaining note is optional
unused MCP proof state, not a behavior defect. All three review threads
are resolved. The earlier 643 result remains historical.

The repository-wide typecheck, tests, build and browser gates passed in
the prior `6696a37f8a5718cd0f79054969a0084462d41d47` CI run. The new
`8c912e1ba4fc66397a7341ade59373af8075068f` full CI also passes. They
were not run as a full local workspace command in the focused PostgreSQL
lease. Local evidence above uses bounded external databases and does not
claim embedded-cluster, live-provider or deployed-alarm qualification.

## Risks

- An unsupported or uncertain owner state must remain blocked. An
optimistic exemption could lose work while compute is stopped.
- Changes during reconstruction or inspection must invalidate the proof.
A memory-only timer is not durable alarm coverage.
- Current authorization, budgets, cancellation, accounting, and resource
ownership still apply on dispatch. The proof does not grant execution
authority.
- The supported writer model uses in-process transaction signals and
startup/resume reconstruction. Independent SQL writers and other
replicas need an explicit wake contract.
- Native, review, coalesced, and taskless retry variants remain
conservative until their owner cases qualify. Reviewer quota and hosted
alarm qualification remain open.
- The shared catalog remains opt-in. Legacy callers and missing owner
bindings retain their old blockers.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` was the configured model for the delegated service
implementations and reviews. OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, performed
managing review and integration. Both used repository tools and code
execution. The exact served backend snapshots and context-window limits
were not exposed.

Devin Foleyanddevinfoley cfed739f81 fix(external-objects): stop reporting GitHub rate limits as unreachable (#17792)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/11/changes/paperclip/11
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app that people use to manage AI agents
for work.
> - Paperclip shows the status of external objects, such as GitHub pull
requests and issues.
> - A background sweep refreshes these objects and resolves a GitHub
credential.
> - The sweep read a credential only from a company secret with a
well-known name.
> - An instance without that secret made anonymous GitHub API calls.
Anonymous calls are limited to 60 per hour.
> - When the limit was reached, the sweep showed "unreachable" for
objects that it could not refresh.
> - A server environment token is instance-wide, so it must not expose a
private repository that a company cannot see.
> - This pull request reads a server token for public repositories,
reports a rate limit as its own state, and shows a warning on the pill.
> - The benefit is an accurate status, fewer misleading failures, and no
cross-company private data.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists. The sections below describe the bug.

**What happened?**

The board showed "unreachable" for many GitHub links, even after a
related fix was deployed.

**Expected behavior**

The board should show "unreachable" only for real network failures. It
should show a rate limit as its own state and retry later.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Use an instance with no GitHub token company secret and no server
token.
2. Let the external-object sweep make more than 60 anonymous GitHub
requests in one hour.
3. Open a task with GitHub links.

**Paperclip version or commit**

master (commit a67a18c at report time).

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted server.

## What Changed

- Add `resolveGitHubApiCredential` in
`server/src/services/git-credentials.ts`. It reads a company secret with
a well-known name, then falls back to the server environment token
(`GITHUB_TOKEN`/`GH_TOKEN`), and it reports the credential `source`.
- Use the source in the GitHub external-object provider and in
`github-commit-details.ts`. A `server_env` token is limited to public
repositories. A private repository resolves only with a company
credential; otherwise the object reports `auth_required` and does not
fetch the private object.
- Add a `rate_limited` liveness state in
`packages/shared/src/constants.ts`.
- Classify a 403 with `x-ratelimit-remaining: 0`, a 429 response, and a
rate-limited repo probe as `rate_limited` instead of `unreachable`.
- Show `rate_limited` in the UI filter, icon, label, tone, overlay, and
badge maps.
- Make `ExternalObjectPill` and `ExternalObjectStatusIcon` prefer a
liveness warning icon and tone, so a rate-limited object shows a warning
even when the last status was healthy.
- Add tests for the credential source, the public-only server token, the
company-scoped private repository, and the rate-limited pill tone.

## Verification

- `vitest run server/src/__tests__/external-objects-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/git-credentials.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/github-commit-details.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/work-products.test.ts` — pass, with the new scoping
and credential-source tests.
- `vitest run ui/src/lib/external-objects.test.ts
ui/src/lib/issue-filters.test.ts
ui/src/components/ExternalObjectPill.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownExternalLink.test.tsx` — pass, with the new
rate-limited pill test.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` — pass. The full
monorepo `tsc` (server and ui) is killed by the 4GB memory cap of this
sandbox; the authoritative CI Typecheck gate runs it instead.
- One test in `git-credentials.test.ts` fails in this sandbox only. The
test "credential helper execution (real git, no network) ... env-carried
token" reads a global GitHub credential helper in the sandbox. The test
fails the same way on the base without this change.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change adds a liveness state and a credential source. It
does not change existing terminal verdicts.
- A server-environment token cannot resolve a private repository. This
is intentional. An operator who needs private repositories must add a
GitHub token as a company secret. The object then reports
`auth_required` with that instruction.
- `rate_limited` is a new value in `EXTERNAL_OBJECT_LIVENESS_STATES`. An
old client ignores an unknown value.

## Model Used

- Provider: DeepSeek (OpenRouter).
- Exact model ID: `openrouter/deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash`.
- Capabilities: tool use and code execution in the Paperclip runner.

3d3b8d4371 fix(external-objects): distinguish hidden GitHub repos from genuinely-missing objects (#15906)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Issues reference external objects such as GitHub pull requests. The
instance resolves their status and shows it in the UI.
> - GitHub returns 404 both when a pull request or issue does not exist
and when the repository exists but the configured credentials cannot see
it. GitHub hides private repos behind a 404 on purpose.
> - The resolver treated every 404 as a terminal not-found verdict. It
froze references to inaccessible repos forever, and marked them "Not
found (Stale)".
> - This pull request probes the repository metadata to tell the two
cases apart and keep frozen objects re-checkable.
> - The benefit is accurate statuses instead of permanent "Not found"
labels for repos the instance cannot see.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this report.

**What happened?**
- The issue properties panel and markdown decoration showed many GitHub
pull request and issue references as "Not found (Stale)" even though the
objects exist.
- GitHub returns 404 for objects the configured credentials cannot
access, not only for objects that are truly gone.
- The resolver treated every 404 as a terminal not-found verdict, so
those references were frozen and showed a misleading "stale" liveness.
- Detected-but-unresolved GitHub objects were labeled "Not yet resolved"
in inline markdown, which did not match the pill label "Not yet
refreshed".

**Expected behavior**
- A reference to a repo the credentials cannot see should surface as
authorization-required, not as a permanent "Not found".
- A truly missing object should still be "Not found".
- A terminal object (merged, closed, or confirmed not-found) should not
be labeled "Stale", because it is never refreshed again.
- Inline markdown statuses should match the pill statuses.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Configure GitHub credentials with no access to a private repo.
2. Add a comment or issue description that links to a pull request in
that repo.
3. Wait for the external object resolver to run.
4. Observe the reference labeled "Not found (Stale)".

**Paperclip version or commit**
- `master` at `e733bdd` (before this change).

**Deployment mode**
- Self-hosted server.

## What Changed

- Added a repository visibility probe to the GitHub external object
provider.
- A 404 for an object now probes the repository metadata with the same
credentials:
- Repository visible: the object genuinely is gone. Keep the not-found
snapshot.
- Repository hidden: return an authorization-required result instead of
a terminal not-found verdict.
- Probe failed (network, rate limit, 5xx): return an unreachable result
and retry later.
- A rate-limited repository probe (403 with `x-ratelimit-remaining: 0`)
is treated as uncertain, not as missing access, so it retries instead of
showing a misleading "Requires auth".
- Re-check previously frozen GitHub not-found objects on their normal
schedule so they self-heal once credentials or repo visibility improve.
A frozen object is only re-checked until a probe confirms the repo is
visible; once confirmed deleted, it is terminal and no longer polled.
- Cleared any terminal verdict when a refresh fails, so a failed refresh
does not freeze an object.
- Kept terminal objects from displaying the "stale" liveness label.
- Matched the inline markdown status label to the pill status label, so
detected-but-unresolved GitHub objects say "Not yet refreshed" instead
of "Not yet resolved".
- Skipped the liveness suffix in markdown links and status icons when it
duplicates the status label (e.g. no more "Requires auth (Requires
auth)").
- Cached repository visibility probes per company+repo + credential
fingerprint, so many objects in the same repo share one probe per
refresh cycle instead of each issuing its own — and a verdict obtained
under one token is never reused by a later refresh running under a
different credential.

## Verification

- Added provider tests for visible, hidden, failed, and rate-limited
repository probes, per-company/per-repo probe caching, and
probe-verified not-found snapshots.
- Added service tests for terminal-object liveness, for re-checking
frozen GitHub not-found objects, and for ensuring probe-verified
not-found objects are never re-queued.
- Added UI tests asserting unresolved GitHub objects render as "Not yet
refreshed" (not "Not yet resolved") and that failed-first-refresh labels
do not repeat the liveness text.
- Ran `npx vitest run src/__tests__/external-objects-service.test.ts` in
`server/`: 34 passed (incl. provider + service suites).
- Ran the external-object markdown/pill/icon suites in `ui/`: 97 passed.
- `ci / Typecheck + Release Registry` and all other CI gates pass on
this head. Local `tsc` could not run to completion in the execution
sandbox (the sandbox memory cap killed it), so CI typecheck is the
authoritative gate.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is confined to the GitHub external object
provider and the external object service.
- A repo that genuinely does not exist and a private repo both return
404 for the probe. Both now surface authorization-required or a retry
instead of an immediate not-found freeze, which stays re-checkable and
self-heals.
- Re-checking frozen not-found objects adds at most one repository probe
per affected object until the probe produces a definitive verdict, after
which the object is terminal and no longer polled. Probe results are
cached per company+repo+credential, so a credential rotation always
re-probes instead of inheriting a stale verdict.

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

## Model Used

- Provider: DeepSeek via OpenRouter, model ID
`openrouter/~deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-latest`, running inside the
Paperclip opencode adapter (`opencode_local`).
- The model produced and assisted with the reasoning and code changes;
the execution workspace, test suite, and git/PR steps above were run by
the same agent run.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 185515c97b fix(external-objects): refresh PR status labels (#10704)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The issue properties panel can show external objects such as GitHub
pull requests.
> - Those objects are resolved by external-object providers and then
displayed as compact status labels.
> - A GitHub pull request could remain in the fallback `unknown` state
and appear as `Not yet resolved`.
> - That label is confusing when the object is known but has not been
refreshed yet.
> - This pull request refreshes due external objects from the heartbeat
scheduler and improves the unknown-status copy.
> - The benefit is a properties panel that moves from pending refresh to
the real pull request state without a manual refresh.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this bug. I searched for related
public issues and pull requests using the terms `Not yet refreshed`,
`external objects refresh`, and `external PR status`, and did not find a
duplicate implementation.

**What happened?**

The issue properties panel could show a GitHub pull request as `Not yet
resolved` even when the referenced pull request was valid. The object
stayed stale unless a manual refresh path ran.

**Expected behavior**

A known external object should show pending-refresh copy while it waits
for provider data. When the scheduler refreshes it, the properties panel
should show the provider status such as open, merged, or closed.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create or view an issue that references a GitHub pull request.
2. Open the issue properties panel.
3. Observe the external object row before a manual refresh has run.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Current `master` before this pull request.

**Deployment mode**

Local dev and self-hosted server.

**Installation method**

Built from source.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Not adapter-specific.

**Database mode**

Not database-related.

**Access context**

Board view.

**Privacy checklist**

I reviewed this description and did not include logs, credentials,
private URLs, internal issue IDs, or PII.

## What Changed

- Added a heartbeat scheduler tick that refreshes due external objects
for active companies.
- Kept manual external-object refresh behavior on the same service path.
- Changed display copy so known provider objects use liveness labels
such as `Not yet refreshed`, while fresh unknown provider statuses show
`Status unavailable`.
- Added server and UI tests for scheduled refresh and label behavior.

## Verification

- `corepack pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/external-objects-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts
ui/src/components/ExternalObjectPill.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/external-objects.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server build`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build`

- `pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps`
- GitHub PR checks passed on head `0e7fcd30`
- Greptile reported 5/5 on head `0e7fcd30` with no unresolved review
threads

Notes:

- I ran recursive typecheck and build first. Both hit container resource
limits with exit 137 during concurrent package work, so I reran the
affected server and UI targets separately.
- An unrelated workspace-runtime auto-port test fails in this container
with a PID ownership mismatch. It is outside the files changed here.

## Risks

Low to medium risk.

The scheduler does more periodic external-object work, so the main risk
is extra provider refresh load. The implementation bounds the work to
active companies, due non-terminal objects, and 50 objects per company
per tick. The path also stays behind the external-objects experimental
setting.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5 Codex in the Codex execution environment, with shell and
GitHub CLI tool use. The runtime did not expose a more specific internal
model ID or context window.

DottaandPaperclip 2dbaf4a7fa External object references across issue surfaces (#8512)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to coordinate
AI agents, issues, approvals, comments, and work products.
> - The involved subsystem is issue context: markdown links, issue
properties, related work, lists, filters, inbox/sidebar status, and
plugin-provided external context.
> - The gap is that URLs to external systems currently remain mostly
plain links, so humans and agents must manually open them to understand
status, identity, and liveness.
> - This matters because external work objects such as GitHub issues and
pull requests are part of the operational state of a Paperclip company.
> - The implementation keeps core provider-neutral: shared contracts,
storage, sync, routes, and UI surfaces live in core while providers can
contribute detection and status resolution.
> - This pull request adds the external object reference foundation,
GitHub provider support, issue-surface rendering, filters,
sidebar/list/inbox signals, and test/story coverage.
> - The benefit is that linked external work becomes inspectable
Paperclip context without hardcoding every provider directly into the
UI.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this work.

Feature request:

- Problem: URLs in Paperclip issues, comments, documents, and related
surfaces do not expose provider status or object identity inline.
- Proposed behavior: detect supported external object URLs, persist
normalized references, refresh provider status, and render concise
status-aware links across issue surfaces.
- Users affected: board users, agents, and maintainers who triage issues
containing external work links.
- Acceptance: external object references are company-scoped,
provider-extensible, visible in key issue surfaces, filterable where
relevant, and covered by focused shared/server/UI tests.

Related PR search:

- No open duplicate PRs found for `external object references`.
- Closed related prior attempt: #4556.

## What Changed

- Added shared external-object contracts, validators, status/liveness
helpers, and plugin protocol declarations.
- Added database schema and additive migrations for external objects,
source mentions, and display metadata.
- Added server services/routes for detecting, syncing, summarizing,
refreshing, and resolving external objects across issues, documents,
comments, projects, and plugins.
- Added a GitHub external-object provider plus plugin SDK authoring
docs.
- Wired UI presentation across markdown links, comments, issue chat,
documents, properties, related work, issue rows, filters, inbox/sidebar
badges, and Storybook stories.
- Rebasing cleanup: moved the branch onto current `master`, repaired
stale worktree provision config, hardened environment-sensitive
tests/mocks, and removed committed screenshot artifacts from the PR
branch to keep the reviewable file set below tool limits.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/external-objects.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/external-object-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/external-objects-service.test.ts
ui/src/components/ExternalObjectPill.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/external-objects.test.ts` passed after rebasing: 5 files, 56
tests.
- Historical branch verification before this PR creation included `pnpm
test:run`, `pnpm -r typecheck`, and `pnpm build`; this PR body does not
claim those were rerun after the final rebase.

## Risks

- Medium: this adds a new cross-surface sync path on
issue/document/comment writes. The implementation uses safe sync
wrappers so external-object failures warn instead of blocking core
mutations.
- Medium: the migrations introduce new tables and indexes. They are
additive and company-scoped.
- Medium: provider-specific URL parsing can miss or misclassify edge
cases. Shared canonicalization tests and provider tests cover current
GitHub shapes.
- Low: UI badge/filter behavior could add visual noise for object-heavy
issues; component tests and Storybook stories cover the intended
surfaces.

> Roadmap checked: `ROADMAP.md` references the plugin system as the
current extension path and does not list a duplicate core feature.
Related long-range docs discuss external references, work products,
preview URLs, and plugin extension points; this PR implements the scoped
external-object reference foundation.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5 coding-agent runtime, with shell and GitHub CLI tool
use. Reasoning mode: medium. Exact deployed runtime model ID and context
window were not exposed in the environment.
