DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 84908d176b fix(recovery): name the failed check in native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch (#19839)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Remote native runs execute in a sandbox, and recovery can reattach a
run to its original sandbox runner
> - Reattachment checks the saved lease, workspace, and runner identity
in five places. Each failed check throws the same bare
`native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch`
> - On staging, 34 OpenCode runs on 31 tasks failed with this bare error
in one evening. The run records could not show which check failed, so
the cause could not be confirmed from the run alone
> - This pull request makes every producer name the failed step and
field with closed values
> - The benefit is that an operator and the next investigation can see
which reattachment check failed, without new logging or identifiers in
the error

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19399, Refs #19733, Refs #19755, Refs #19779

**What happened?**
Remote same-run retries failed with
`native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch` and the task was blocked for
reconciliation. The error is thrown by environment acquire, environment
resume, workspace preparation, workspace sync, and remote runner
verification. All of them used the same bare string. The run's `error`
field and its run events did not show which check failed.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start reattachment for a remote native run whose saved lease,
workspace reference, or runner identity no longer matches.
2. Read the run's `error`.
3. It shows only `native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch`.

**Expected behavior**
The error names the step and the field that differed, with no
identifiers, and existing consumers of the code keep working.

## What Changed

- New
`server/src/services/native-runtime/remote-recovery-lease-mismatch.ts`:
the code constant, a closed `stage` and `field` vocabulary, and
`remoteRecoveryLeaseMismatch(stage, field)`. It builds
`native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch: stage=<stage> field=<field>`.
- `environment-run-orchestrator.ts` (stages `environment_acquire` and
`environment_resume`), `heartbeat/workspace-preparation.ts`
(`workspace_preparation`), `native-workspace-sync.ts`
(`workspace_sync`), and `verifyRemoteRunnerReattachment` in
`native-session-executor.ts` (`runner_verification`) now throw the
detailed form. Each check keeps the same condition and order. Only the
message changes.
- `restart-interrupted-turn.ts` uses the shared constant. It already
matches the code exactly or as the `code: ` prefix, so automatic
continuation after a reattachment loss is unchanged. No other consumer
matches the code.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` documents the detail format.

## Previous-release state

This change adds no persisted state and changes no saved identity. Runs
that a previous release failed keep the bare
`native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch` in `error`. Runs failed by this
release store the detailed form. The only consumer (`isReattachmentLoss`
in `restart-interrupted-turn.ts`) accepts both forms, and
`workspace-recovery-retry-copyback.test.ts` covers both.

## Verification

- Exact-detail assertions in the producer tests:
- `server/src/__tests__/environment-run-orchestrator.test.ts`: every
scope, status, expiry, provider, lease-ID, cwd, plugin-task, and resume
case asserts its stage and field. Against the previous producer, 21 of
these cases fail (the message was the bare code). With this change, all
57 tests pass.
- `native-session-executor.test.ts`: a replaced sandbox reports
`runner_verification`/`provider_lease_id`. A missing durable runner
identity reports `identity_run_id` before any sandbox read.
- `native-workspace-sync.test.ts`,
`heartbeat/workspace-preparation.test.ts`,
`native-controller-recovery.integration.test.ts` assert their exact
detail.
- End to end on embedded PostgreSQL:
`heartbeat-native-remote-failure-retention.test.ts` records
`native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch: stage=environment_resume
field=lease` on the run when the provider no longer resumes the lease,
and it still requests the user's Retry once.
`workspace-recovery-retry-copyback.test.ts` adds a detailed-form row
that still continues once.
- The affected server test files pass locally. `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck` passes.

## Risks

- Low risk. Only the error text changes. Conditions, ordering, and
fail-closed behavior are unchanged.
- Logs and run errors show a longer message. The detail has closed
values only, so it adds no identifiers or secrets.
- A first version of this PR also changed remote retry selection. Review
showed that a plain resume in a new sandbox hits the remote workspace's
unsaved-work hold, and that a `destroy` disposition does not prove the
old sandbox is gone. That change is removed. It needs a separate design.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (Anthropic), model ID `claude-opus-5-5`, run in Claude
Code with tool use (shell, file editing, read-only browser access to

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 a94881d1a7 fix(heartbeat): save a comment refused by a temporary hold and route post-quarantine input to its own gate (#19829)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A user's follow-up comment or Retry must be delivered once,
eventually, even when a temporary company admission hold (accounting
still settling) is active
> - #19741 kept claimed runs queued through such a hold and woke held
work when it cleared
> - A restart-chaos wave still lost a comment, because its wake was
refused before admission and written as a terminal skip
> - The same wave left a Retry waiting forever for a stop record of a
process that never existed
> - This pull request saves the refused comment as a deferred receipt,
and routes input after a pre-launch quarantine failure to the
quarantine's own gate
> - The benefit is that the comment is delivered after the hold, and the
task asks for the action that actually unblocks it instead of offering a
Retry that can never start

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19741 and #19702.

**What happened?**
In a restart-chaos wave, a failed run's accounting held the company for
600 s.
1. A user commented while the task's run was live. The enqueue budget
gate refused the comment's wake before it reached the deferral behind
the live run. Because it was a user request with no saved receipt, it
was written as `skipped` (`budget.blocked`). The live run finished
without it and the task ended `done`, so the comment was lost.
2. A Retry created a run that the native cleanup-quarantine fence
refused before it requested any runner launch
(`native_session_cleanup_quarantined`, no process events). A second
Retry then waited with `process_identity_missing` ("The previous run has
no verified stop record") for a process that never existed. The task
kept offering Retry, and that Retry could never start.

**Expected behavior**
A comment refused by a temporary hold stays saved and is delivered once
later. Input after a run that was refused before launch is handled by
the quarantine gate: Retry is not offered (send a new message), and a
new message gets the verified-stop check of the previous provider
session.

## What Changed

- `heartbeat/queue.ts`: when the enqueue budget gate refuses a user's
comment wake and the block is temporary (not a reached hard stop, per
`isBoardOwnedBudgetBlock`), the wake is saved as a
`deferred_issue_execution` receipt. The receipt carries the comment ids
and an `executionWait` of `budget.blocked`, and the gate notifies the
deferred-receipt worker and throws `PersistedExecutionWaitRefusal`. It
is not written as `skipped`. Normal promotion (when the live run ends)
and #19741's hold-release wakeups deliver it.
- `native-local-process-stop.ts`: new `nativeRunRefusedBeforeLaunch`. It
returns true for a failed native run with
`native_session_cleanup_quarantined`, no recorded process, and no
launch-request or identity event.
- `explicit-native-continuation.ts`: such a run passes the
process-identity check, so the existing quarantine branch decides. A
Retry gets `cleanup_quarantined` (shown with `canRetry: false` and "send
a new message"). A new message gets
`verifyStoppedNativeSessionForContinuation`. Any launch request or
identity record keeps the original stop proofs.

- `native-session-executor.ts`
(`verifyStoppedNativeSessionForContinuation`): when the source has no
process record and no launch event, the verifier relies on the previous
owner's stop evidence. Before this change it required the source to
share the owner's process identity, so a new message stayed held even
after the owner stopped. A source that carries a process identity must
still match the owner exactly.

## Verification

Each new test fails on `master` and passes with this change, on embedded
Postgres:
- `server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-held-comment-wake.test.ts`: a comment
whose wake the hold refuses at enqueue is saved with a `budget.blocked`
wait and is not skipped. It is delivered exactly once after accounting
settles.
- `server/src/services/explicit-native-continuation.test.ts`:
- A run refused by the quarantine before launch routes a new message to
the quarantine's stop verification and a Retry to `cleanup_quarantined`.
These failed on `master` with `process_identity_missing`.
- Guards (green on both): a quarantined run that requested a launch, and
another failure without a process record, still require
`process_identity_missing`.
- `server/src/services/quarantined-task-retry.test.ts`: a never-launched
quarantined source is certified once the previous owner has stopped (red
on `master`). It stays held if the source requested a launch or the
owner is still running. All 31 tests pass, and the `stopped native
conversation physical cleanup` suite passes (46).
- Related suites pass locally (6 files, 620 tests): explicit native
continuation, held comment wake, queued comments routes, comment wake
batching, refused assignment wake, deferred receipt work. Two
`deferred-execution-receipt-work` tests failed once under parallel load
and passed when run alone.

## Risks

- The saved-comment path applies only to user comment wakes refused by a
temporary budget hold. Hard stops, system wakes, case handoffs, durable
chat requests, and existing saved receipts are unchanged.
- The pre-launch rule is limited to the quarantine failure code with no
launch evidence. Every other missing process identity still requires the
existing stop proof.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, run as an agent in
Claude Code with tool use (shell, file editing, local test execution,
kept restart-chaos instance inspection).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 b2af45f0f1 fix(runner): let OpenAI API-key Codex agents generate images with their existing key (#19654)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - New users often connect a Codex agent with an OpenAI API key during
onboarding.
> - A user asked such an agent for a logo. The agent said that the
built-in image generator was not available and that its fallback needed
a separate API key. It then drew an SVG by hand.
> - #19516 removed `--disable image_generation`. That change is correct,
but it does not reach this path. The pinned Codex 0.160.0 shows its
`image_gen` tool only when Codex signs in with ChatGPT. The check is
`image_generation_available` in `codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec_plan.rs`.
An API key never gets the tool.
> - The runner keeps the provider key out of the agent's shell on
purpose, so the skill's `scripts/image_gen.py` fallback cannot run.
> - This pull request adds a Paperclip `generate_image` tool. The server
makes the image with the agent's existing OpenAI key. The key never goes
to the agent process or the shell.
> - The benefit is that API-key Codex agents can make images with no
second key. The spend goes to the agent's budget and the budget can stop
it.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19516

**What happened?**
An agent connected through onboarding with an OpenAI API key (Codex
harness, `gpt-5.6-sol`) could not generate images. The agent said: "The
image skill's built-in generator isn't available in this run, and its
fallback would require a separate API key." It then drew an SVG instead.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a company with a Codex agent that uses an OpenAI API key.
2. Ask the agent for a raster image, for example a logo PNG.
3. The agent reports that image generation is not available. It does not
make the image.

**Expected behavior**
The agent makes the image with the OpenAI key that already powers it.

**Root cause**
The agent ran on the native runner's Codex app-server path, with
`auth.json = {"OPENAI_API_KEY": ...}`. Codex 0.160.0 removes
`image_gen.imagegen` from the model's tools unless
`current_auth_uses_codex_backend()` is true. That function is true only
for a ChatGPT sign-in.

I proved this with the real pinned binary. I gave it the runner's
isolated launch arguments and the API-key auth file, and pointed it at a
local Responses endpoint. The first model request offers only `exec`,
`wait`, `request_user_input` and the collaboration tools. #19516's test
checked only `codex features list`, so it could not see this gate.

## What Changed

- **New `server/src/services/native-runtime/generate-image-tool.ts`:**
  - The tool schema and definition.
- `imageGenerationBindingForRun`. It applies only to native Codex runs
on a direct OpenAI `api_key` connection with no router selection.
- The OpenAI Images API call (`gpt-image-2`, `b64_json`, PNG check, 180
s timeout). The reply is read as a stream with a byte cap before it is
parsed. A decoded image larger than 20 MiB is refused.
- A reviewed rate card for `gpt-image-2`: text input $5, image input $8
and image output $30 per 1M tokens, from
developers.openai.com/api/docs/pricing, retrieved 2026-11-06.
  - A create-only, symlink-confined local write.
- **`paperclip-runner-tool-authority.ts`:**
  - Adds the `imageGeneration` binding.
- Advertises the tool only for standard mode with a workspace. A remote
target must also have an installer. Dot, Muse, Grok and native review do
not get the tool.
- Adds the `#generateImage` handler. Before any spend, it checks again:
the run and task, budget authority, `issue:mutate`, case handoff, and
the connection.
- Stores a claim-before-spend per-call receipt in
`resultJson.imageToolReceipts`. A retry or recovery replays the receipt
and does not pay again.
- Saves a `charged` receipt (usage, price, request ID and charge time)
as soon as OpenAI returns. A failed save, failed accounting write or
crash can then still settle the spend. A retry or recovery records the
cost once and never buys again.
- Records one `cost_events` row through `createCostEventInTransaction`.
The row is `metered_api` with `costStatus: "estimated"`, and the budget
is evaluated. The row is recorded even if saving fails.
- Checks the task's project budget, as well as the company and agent
budgets, before spending.
- Writes content-free `runner.image_generate` activity entries: started,
completed, failed and unconfirmed.
- **`ai-connections.ts`:** adds `selectImageGeneration`. It checks again
that the connection is an active, healthy OpenAI `api_key` connection
with no custom routing. It also checks the responsible user's
membership, the grant audience and the agent or company installation.
These are the same rules that runtime selection uses.
- **`native-session-executor.ts`:** gets the binding from the run's
admitted `contextSnapshot.aiConnection`. The value comes only from the
server, never from tool input.
- **`native-session-resume.ts`:** the native tool contract changes from
`v18` to `v19` and now lists `generate_image`. A persisted provider
thread cannot add tools when it resumes, so older threads must rotate.
- **`doc/runner-api-tools.md`:** a new section about image generation
for OpenAI API-key Codex agents.
- **#19516: kept, not reverted.** Its changes have no effect on the
API-key path. They are still correct for Codex agents that sign in with
ChatGPT, because `image_gen` works there and saves to
`CODEX_HOME/generated_images`. Those agents need the read grant that
#19516 added. On the API-key path, the new tool replaces the built-in
tool. The tool's description tells the agent to use it instead of
`image_gen` or `scripts/image_gen.py`.

## Verification

**Red on `master` (e482f0f632).** Behavioural red with the first version
of the new test:

```
 FAIL  src/services/native-runtime/generate-image-tool.test.ts > generate_image for OpenAI API-key Codex agents (N-12) > lets an API-key Codex agent make an image with its existing OpenAI key, saved in its workspace and billed
AssertionError: expected [ 'connections_search', …(51) ] to include 'generate_image'
 ❯ src/services/native-runtime/generate-image-tool.test.ts:78:60
      Tests  1 failed | 3 passed (4)
```

The final test file on master's source also fails. The reason is that
the module does not exist: `Cannot find module
'./generate-image-tool.js'`.

**Real pinned Codex binary.** The new test is
`packages/paperclip-runner/src/drivers/codex/codex-api-key-image-tools.test.ts`.
It uses the runner's isolated launch, the API-key `auth.json` and a
local Responses endpoint. It shows that the model gets no `image_gen`,
`imagegen` or `image_generation` tool, and that a server-advertised
`generate_image` tool does reach the model:

```
 Test Files  1 passed (1)
      Tests  1 passed (1)
```

**Green after the fix:**
`server/src/services/native-runtime/generate-image-tool.test.ts` uses
embedded PostgreSQL and a stubbed OpenAI fetch.

```
 Test Files  1 passed (1)
      Tests  11 passed (11)
```

The 11 tests cover these behaviours:

- **Main path.** The tool is advertised. The request goes to
`api.openai.com/v1/images/generations` with the existing key. The PNG is
written to the workspace. The key does not appear in the result or in
activity. One `cost_events` row is written: 50 text tokens and 1000
output tokens, which is $0.03025, estimated, from the rate card. A retry
and `recover()` replay the receipt with no second fetch and no second
cost row.
- **No binding:** the tool is not offered and `execute` refuses.
- **Budget hard-stop.** The stop pauses the agent, so the call is
refused before any fetch and no file is written.
- **Bad grant:** the call is refused before any fetch.
- **Project budget stop.** The task's project is paused by its budget,
so the call is refused before any fetch.
- **Charge settlement.** A crash left a `charged` receipt. The retry and
`recover()` record the cost once, report the image path and do not buy
another image.
- **Oversized reply.** The read stops before the body is parsed.
- **Save failure.** The spend is still recorded. A same-call retry does
not pay again and reports the failure.
- **Binding gate.** Only Codex on a direct OpenAI API key gets the
binding. A subscription, ACPX, OpenRouter or a routed connection does
not.
- **Rate card math.**
- **Provider errors.** The error text does not contain the key, and
non-PNG data is rejected.

**Neighbouring suites:**

- `src/drivers/codex` in the runner package: 24 files, 350 tests passed.
- Server: `paperclip-runner-tool-authority.test.ts`,
`native-session-resume.test.ts`, `fast-responses.test.ts`,
`ai-connection-session.test.ts` and the new suite. 157 of 158 passed.
- The one failure is `native-session-resume.test.ts › archives a damaged
prior epoch … with real runnerd` (ENOENT on `authority-epochs`). It
fails the same way on unmodified `master` in this local environment, so
this change did not cause it.
- `tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json`: clean.
- `pnpm verify` exits 2 (broad). Required CI supplies the broad
coverage.

## Risks

- **New security surface: this needs maintainer sign-off.** The server
now sends the agent's OpenAI API key to `api.openai.com` on the agent's
request. The tool is limited in these ways:
  - The key stays in the server.
- Each call checks run, task, budget, mutation and connection authority
again.
- The destination name comes from the server and must match
`^[a-z0-9-]+-[0-9a-f]{8}\.png$`. The write is create-only and confined
to the workspace root. On macOS it uses `O_NOFOLLOW_ANY`. On Linux it
uses a `/proc` descriptor walk.
- **Spend.** Each call costs money. The tool description tells the agent
to make only what the task needs. The cost is an estimate from a rate
card (`costStatus: "estimated"`), not an invoice. The rate card applies
the image-output rate to all output tokens, so the estimate errs on the
high side.
- **Checkpoint rotation.** The tool-contract bump from v18 to v19 makes
existing native provider threads start fresh once at their next turn.
This is what the contract requires when the tool surface changes.
- **Pricing drift.** If OpenAI changes `gpt-image-2` prices, the rate
card must be updated.

DottaandPaperclip 909f4d1a33 fix(native): recover exact historical provider pack code (#19779)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native sessions retain the provider pack that admitted their saved
state.
> - An image update can replace that pack's executable, proxy, or
contract.
> - Older sessions can predate the durable three-file launch artifact
receipt.
> - The current image's archive cannot satisfy a different pinned
manifest.
> - This pull request obtains the exact public code from its recorded
release image.
> - Full source, archive, and installed-file checks still control
provider admission.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19558, #19622, #19755.

A saved OpenCode session can fail with
`runner_remote_provider_archive_invalid` after an image update. Its
original provider state and checkpoint remain valid, but its pinned pack
differs from the controller's pack. The old manifest can name a release
that still has the exact code in GHCR. Matching the OpenCode version
does not prove matching proxy or contract bytes.

## What Changed

- Resolve a pinned historical pack from the recorded source-SHA image in
the public Paperclip GHCR repository. Verify the platform manifest, raw
config, source identity, dedicated code layer, selected pack manifest,
archive contents, paths, and hashes.
- Keep a private temporary cache of verified public code. Rebuild it on
an empty host. Bound each source to 4 GiB and three minutes, with two
active imports or cache verifications, 32 distinct queued sources, and
disk-headroom checks. Share warm-cache verification by manifest while
each caller keeps its own cancellation.
- Select this verified archive through the existing uploader. Preserve
installed-pack and preinstalled-pack checks. Refuse unavailable
historical transport before clearing the target. Keep the current-source
identity guard from #19755. Refuse an oversized layer argument before
any target effect.
- Attach the source wait to the actual per-turn startup. Stop, lease
loss, and startup completion cancel it. Keep existing Runner admission
and turn limits.
- Document the registry retention requirement and the distinction
between public code recovery and encrypted provider-state backup.

## Verification

- Genuine baseline RED: the real uploader rejects the selected old pack
before any remote effect. Treatment installs the exact old code through
that uploader.
- Current head: all 19 source/integrity/cache/deadline controls, all 45
archive controls, and 29 actual-caller and manifest/startup controls
pass (93 total). Four review regressions fail against the prior head and
pass with the fixes. The server and colocated test TypeScript graph
passes. Module-boundary and whitespace checks pass.
- Actual public GHCR cold reconstruction: 1,054,587,008 compressed code
bytes, 115.4 s, about 248 MiB maximum owner RSS. All 114 file layers and
the overlay passed source validation.
- Linux Node 24.22.2 fixture: the real historical pack passes the normal
uploader, full installed-file verifier, and pinned OpenCode version
check. It used one transfer, no application startup, no network, and no
provider calls. Revision12b0d2ba passed in 220.2 s with about 282 MiB
owner RSS. The earlier prototype passed in 108.5 s; both measurements
are retained. The three-minute source limit and the fixture's
four-minute limit were unchanged. The later review fixes add shared
cache verification, hash cancellation, and an early size guard. They do
not change extraction or the accepted Linux fixture input.
- Earlier fixture failures are retained: unsafe hardlink classification
was corrected with confined-link controls; a cached image lacked the
required zstd CLI; Docker Desktop bind storage caused GNU tar
directory-identity errors. The passing fixture uses the official Debian
zstd binary and an owned Linux tmpfs target. Production extraction code
is unchanged.
- Fresh Greptile review is 5/5 on
7b1a249478 with no open findings. All
required CI gates passed on the reviewed head. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42353011485),
[fresh
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19779#issuecomment-6704065994).
No hosted session was retried by this change.

## Risks

- Cold historical recovery reads about 1 GiB of public code for the
measured release. Registry latency or missing images can block it. The
source deadline remains three minutes.
- GHCR administrators can delete release images. Source-SHA tags and
this temporary cache are not a permanent code-retention guarantee. A
provider-state S3 backup does not replace legacy executable bytes.
- Targets must support the existing qualified archive transport and
selected platform. Failed checks preserve the saved state and prevent
provider dispatch.
- The Linux fixture proves code installation and verification. Hosted
conversation continuation still needs acceptance after normal delivery.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, and local
code execution. The host does not expose the exact deployment ID or
context-window size.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip beb3e55072 Continue a released Runner after confirmed graceful eviction (#19760)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Core can release a completed Runner while its host retains the
session.
> - A host can later retire that Runner under its retention policy.
> - Graceful retirement saves a suspended session before physical
shutdown.
> - A cached Core owner still expects the old physical task and rejects
a new allocation.
> - This pull request retires that dead local controller after verified
stop.
> - The benefit is ordinary session continuation for Codex and qualified
Claude.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19611, #19683, #19196, #19733 and #19157.

After a host gracefully evicts a released task, the next run can receive
a new allocation. A cached controller rejects it with
`native_session_released_owner_scope_mismatch`. The detached-controller
path can already recover the suspended session.

## What Changed

- Require the exact source, old task and current account/workspace scope
before releasing a cached controller.
- Use the existing physical-stop receipt checks. Detach only the local
controller, then use the same suspended-state admission as the detached
path.
- Preserve the current run's instruction reservation. Retain a failed
detach for cleanup.
- Add actual Core, PostgreSQL and native Runner tests for Codex and
qualified Claude through ACPX. Route them once through the native CI
lane.

## Verification

- The original real-entry Codex case failed at the cached-task scope
check after native retirement, confirmed process exit and a recorded
stop receipt.
- The current head's native CI lane passed all 16 eviction cases for
Codex and qualified Claude. These check cached and detached owners,
current instruction preparation, reused-allocation inspection, missing
stop/state, foreign identity and non-suspended state. They verify the
same provider session, two ordinary turns, one accepted source result
and no replacement submit on refusal.
- Local checks passed the composition matrix, 12 targeted executor
controls, 43 CI lane-selection checks and server TypeScript. All eight
refusal cases now assert the expected error and whether the checkpoint
request or host read was reached. This addresses the first standard
review's test finding.
- Commands: `pnpm exec vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/plugin-runner-eviction.integration.test.ts`,
focused `native-session-executor.test.ts` controls, `node
../node_modules/typescript/bin/tsc --noEmit -p tsconfig.json`, and `node
--test scripts/__tests__/run-vitest-stable-shard.test.mjs`.
- [Full
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42349579107)
passed on head `9a25709ef43365b1f1849413b935785838eca19b`. [Standard
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19760#issuecomment-6703629255)
is 5/5 on this head, with no unresolved findings. Whitespace and
added-line secret/PII checks passed.

## Risks

- Controlled provider processes and an authenticated local host fixture
model the Launcher edge. This does not qualify live vendor transcript
storage, mounts or a deployment.
- This covers graceful eviction before allocation or before stopped-task
inspection during `describe`. Loss after that inspection or an ambiguous
claim remains held for reconciliation. No unavailable reply proves
physical stop.
- Missing or invalid suspended state still refuses continuation. The
deterministic refusal rule from #19733 remains unchanged. Abrupt death
without a suspended checkpoint stays with the separate #19157 work.
- No new capability, mode, schema, dependency, deployment or activation
is added. The existing draft #19157 and dependent branches remain
unchanged.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol (`gpt-6.1-sol`), high reasoning, through Codex with
repository tools and code execution. The runtime does not expose a
context-window size.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 3895195f4b fix(native): report a retained provider pack the controller does not ship as incompatible (#19755)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Remote OpenCode runs stage a controller-owned provider pack into the
sandbox before the provider starts
> - Since #19558, an ordinary OpenCode continuation retains the pack
that an earlier release admitted for its saved provider session
> - After a controller release changes the pack, the controller no
longer ships those bytes, and the continuation must stay blocked
> - The configured-pack upload path did not detect that case: it read
the build-time archive receipt for the old digest and failed with
`runner_remote_provider_archive_invalid`, a generic, retryable error
that suggests corrupt image files
> - This pull request compares the configured pack's identity with the
selected identity before any upload and fails as
`runner_remote_provider_artifact_incompatible`
> - It also puts a fixed reason in each real archive integrity error
> - The benefit is a correct, permanent classification that matches the
bundled-image path, no wasted retries, and a diagnosable message for
real archive corruption

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19558, #19743

**What happened?**

On a hosted deployment, two remote OpenCode runs of a review agent
failed before the provider process started. The error was
`runner_remote_provider_archive_invalid` (classified as a generic
`native_session_interrupted`). Both runs continued an issue whose
provider session was admitted by an earlier release. In both runs, the
run log shows `provider_pack.compatibility`, `provider_pack.verify`, and
`provider_pack.verify_preinstalled` fail, then
`provider_pack.archive.verify` fails after 4–6 ms. Fresh runs of the
same agent on the same controller passed pack preparation with the
current pack.

The cause is not a cache race. The archives are created at image build
time (`Dockerfile` `runner-provider-pack` stage) and the server never
rewrites them. The retained authority selects the old pack digest.
`readProviderPackLayers` then compares the receipt's
`providerPackDigest` (current release) with that old digest and throws
`runner_remote_provider_archive_invalid`. Directory staging (no archive)
instead clears the staged remote pack, uploads the different pack, and
fails only at the final verification.

**Expected behavior**

A continuation pinned to a pack that the controller does not ship fails
as `runner_remote_provider_artifact_incompatible`, as the bundled-image
path already does ("the image provider pack did not match the bundled
release identity"). It does not clear or upload anything. Real archive
corruption keeps `runner_remote_provider_archive_invalid` with a fixed
reason that the run report shows.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Build a provider pack and its archives for digest A.
2. Call `uploadVerifiedProviderPack` with that pack and a selected
(retained) digest B.
3. Before this change: the call fails with
`runner_remote_provider_archive_invalid` (v1 and v2 archives), or
resolves after it clears and re-uploads the remote pack (directory
source).

## What Changed

- `uploadVerifiedProviderPack` takes the configured pack's
`sourceDigest`. If it is not the selected `expectedDigest`, the call
fails with `runner_remote_provider_artifact_incompatible: selected
provider pack <12 hex> is not the controller's pack <12 hex>; ...`. The
check runs before the remote clear, the archive read, the directory hash
and any upload.
- The executor passes the configured pack's identity
(`readRemoteProviderPackIdentity(root, false)`, the same reader that
selects the current pack).
- Archive integrity errors keep the
`runner_remote_provider_archive_invalid` prefix and add a fixed reason:
`receipt_unreadable`, `receipt_identity_mismatch`, `receipt_invalid`,
`layer_invalid`, `layers_unreadable`, `archive_unreadable`,
`archive_not_file`, `size_mismatch` or `sha256_mismatch`. The run report
keeps only the outer message, so the reason must be in the message.
Filesystem causes stay on `cause` and do not put private paths in the
message.
- The v1 reader now uses the shared `verifyArchive` helper.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` documents the rule.

## Verification

- Red before the fix (production files unchanged, new tests only): `npx
vitest run src/services/native-runtime/provider-pack-archive.test.ts`
gave 5 failed / 38 passed. The v1 and v2 cases failed with exactly
`runner_remote_provider_archive_invalid`, which is the hosted error. The
directory case resolved after it cleared and uploaded the remote pack.
The reason tests got a bare `runner_remote_provider_archive_invalid`.
- Green after the fix: the same file gave 43 passed.
- `npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts`: 1245
passed. This includes the #19558 continuation cases.
- `remote-provider-pack`, `remote-provider-pack-authority` and
`remote-provider-pack-verification` tests: 69 passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`: all layers passed.
- Review follow-up (`c8156841a9`): an unreadable numbered layer now
reports `archive_unreadable`. The layered-corruption test deletes
`0.tar.zst` and checks for that reason before any transfer. The archive
file gave 43 passed.
- Hosted evidence came from read-only run, event and issue-run reads
only. No hosted retries, recovery or deploys.

## Risks

- This change does not unblock an affected session. It makes the failure
honest and permanent: `runner_remote_provider_artifact_incompatible` is
already a permanent, pre-session failure code, so the run is not retried
with the same result. To recover, the session needs its original
artifacts (the captured provider-artifact path, which #19743 repairs for
new admissions) or an authorized continuity break.
- Low risk for other paths. Fresh launches select the configured pack's
own identity, so the digests are equal. Restored provider artifacts and
compatible installed packs return before this upload path.
- Callers that match `runner_remote_provider_archive_invalid` with a
substring still match. No code compares the exact message.
- Not tested end to end against a hosted sandbox. The executor-level
wiring of `sourceDigest` has typecheck coverage but no dedicated
executor test.

shell, code editing, test execution and read-only authenticated browser
diagnostics.

c3180398fa fix(native): resume a remote Runner after a settled suspension
fix(native): resume a remote Runner after a settled suspension

A scheduled checkpoint retry can retain a remote reattach claim after
closing its failed predecessor cleanly suspends and exits the Runner.
Resume only that exact settled source after confirmed exit and a fresh
identity/state check. Preserve pending work and uncertain-exit fences.

Admit the last already-charged provider attempt and share one bounded
recovery deadline with the final state read, retaining closed diagnostic
labels on read failures. Cover fresh ACPX Runner relaunch on attempts
two and three through actual processes and the durable close barrier.

Six affected suites pass 1,579 tests, with 14 environment-gated skips;
all server typecheck layers pass on Node 25.6.1. The complete provider
turn continuation failure remains preserved as follow-up #19751.

DottaandPaperclip 18b6b71d83 fix(native): refresh per-turn projections from the selected checkpoint (#19744)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Per-turn native sessions save controller checkpoints and suspended
Runner backups under separate owners.
> - A local controller projection can still name the first turn after
the next turn has saved its checkpoint and backup.
> - The old per-turn restore path selected that stale local reference
instead of the newer canonical source.
> - Admission then saw different turn identities and archived the valid
backup with the old projection.
> - This change uses the canonical selected checkpoint and the existing
finished-owner proof before it replaces a stale projection.
> - The benefit is that a third turn keeps the valid saved conversation
and backup.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

After two successful per-turn remote runs, a third turn could fail
before provider execution with unavailable provider resume state. The
selected database checkpoint and suspended backup belonged to the second
run. The local controller projection still belonged to the first run.

**Expected behavior**

The selected checkpoint must govern controller rehydration. Preserve the
older projection and the selected run's backup. Do not overwrite
current, newer, foreign, changed or unsettled ownership evidence.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Save two real controller checkpoints for one per-turn conversation
and finish both owners.
2. Leave the first checkpoint's readable projection or external marker
beside the second run's suspended backup.
3. Admit the third run through the real canonical selector and backend
owner.
4. Before this change, admission archives the active backup with the
stale projection and leaves no active controller state.

Related: #18018 added per-turn controller restoration. #18718 refreshed
warm projections. #18846 added finished-owner retirement. This change
keeps the selected per-turn source from entering that retirement path
because of an older projection. The open warm-only change #18436
concerns a different restart branch.

## What Changed

- Resolve the canonical source before refreshing a prior per-turn
controller projection.
- Re-read it under the existing sorted coordinator locks. Replacing an
older owner reuses finished-owner checks for both runs and verifies
their full session scope. A same-source marker only rehydrates its exact
selected identity before the normal retained-sandbox verification.
- Recheck the exact initial local bytes after asynchronous reads and
lock waits. Preserve the old control-plane directory in the existing
archive, while keeping the newer backup and provider files active.
- Restore a current-run external marker only from its own checkpoint
before the existing bootstrap retry proof. A missing current checkpoint
cannot select a previous turn. Retain readable current-run, legacy
file-backed, backup integrity and provider resume checks.
- Stage the existing OpenCode proxy bytes into the controlled
fake-sandbox filesystem in the real ingress-retry fixture. Keep remote
artifact path and digest checks unchanged.
- Add real PostgreSQL/filesystem coverage for Codex and ACPX, readable
projections and external markers, missing or corrupt parts, held owners,
foreign scope, newer history and a current owner arriving during a real
coordinator-lock wait.

## Verification

- Baseline RED: the two new readable-projection cases failed against
unchanged production code because active control-plane state was absent
after admission. The real selector selected the second run. Setup
failures were separate and are not counted as RED.
- Exact final existing per-turn restore, active-owner refresh and
retained-owner wait controls: 19/19 passed in 5.91s.
- Exact final local source (`fd8d9d9021`, based on `131b566ca4`): 58/58
real PostgreSQL/filesystem and native Runner tests passed in 31.58s.
This includes both existing ingress bootstrap retries through the real
Runner and fake Codex/OpenCode providers, plus 56 focused owner cases.
Cargo validated and rebuilt current source from a private APFS clone of
an unqualified local cache; the original cache was untouched. A private
local configuration resolves workspace DB, Shared and Runner sources
without replacing behavior. The local CLI allowed a 90s setup hook; no
default timeout changed.
- Exact final full server and test-tree TypeScript check with Runner
source paths: passed. The stock fresh-worktree check first failed on
unbuilt Runner declaration entries; no product types were changed to
hide that setup gap.
- Exact final module-boundary and diff-whitespace checks: passed.
- Native-server CI RED on the previous head: both real ingress retry
cases failed because a current-run marker was returned without
hydration. The aggregate gate failed from that one underlying lane. The
correction preserves the own-checkpoint bootstrap path. The first local
OpenCode attempt hit a controller-host fixture path guard before its
intended failure; staging the same proxy bytes into the fake sandbox
made both native cases pass.
- Review regression RED: the real retained-sandbox fixture failed at
`sandbox_resumed` on the first PR head. GREEN: the corrected owner
hydrates the same-source marker and reaches the existing exact
retained-lease/suspended-runner read. A mismatched item identity still
refuses before any remote read.
- Local environment: macOS arm64, Node 26.4.0, PostgreSQL 18.1. Provider
execution is deliberately outside this admission fixture. The real
three-turn workflow still needs verification on the normally deployed
fixed source.

## Risks

- Refresh requires settled, committed, released and stopped or fenced
owners. Missing or changed evidence remains blocked.
- The refresh holds existing coordinator locks while it validates
bounded controller state. It performs no provider calls.
- The old control-plane bytes remain in the archive. A restore write
failure still fails admission; it does not reset provider state.
- Final-head full CI is green, including typecheck, build, Rust,
native-server, server and browser suites; Greptile is 5/5 with no
unresolved threads. Hosted deployment and continuity verification remain
separate acceptance steps. A successful replacement conversation is not
proof of provider continuity; hosted continuity acceptance is still
pending.

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with code execution and repository tools.
The host does not expose the exact backend model ID or context-window
size.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 24cbea136f fix(native): export OpenCode launch artifacts through a confined workspace copy (#19743)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native recovery saves the qualified OpenCode launch files so a cold
allocation can resume the same session (#19622)
> - Core reads those files from the sandbox with the provider's bulk
`syncOut`
> - The launch root is under the sandbox account home, not under the
workspace remote dir
> - Daytona, Kubernetes, and CreateOS confine every export source to the
workspace remote dir, so the export always fails
> - Every remote OpenCode run on a durable-storage instance now fails
40-90 s after start with `native_session_interrupted`
> - This pull request exports a confined scratch copy of the three
launch files from inside the workspace runtime dir
> - The benefit is that remote OpenCode runs work again, and the
provider confinement guard stays unchanged

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19622

**What happened?**

After #19622, every remote OpenCode run on Daytona fails at provider
admission. The run error is `Daytona sync source path escapes the
workspace remote dir:
/home/daytona/.paperclip-runtime/paperclip-runner/provider-artifacts/<digest>`.
The error code is `native_session_interrupted`. The last successful run
of the affected agent was immediately before #19622 reached the
deployment.

**Expected behavior**

Core saves the qualified launch files and the run continues. The
provider confinement guard still refuses any export source outside the
workspace remote dir.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Configure an OpenCode agent on a Daytona environment with durable
harness storage.
2. Start a run.
3. The run fails when Core captures the provider artifacts, before the
first turn.

## What Changed

- `captureRemoteNativeProviderArtifacts` now takes the workspace
`remoteCwd`.
- Before the export, a sandbox command copies the three launch files
into a new scratch directory at
`<remoteCwd>/.paperclip-runtime/paperclip-runner/provider-artifact-export/<uuid>/`.
The command refuses a symlink or a non-regular file. It uses `cp -P`, so
it never follows a link.
- `syncOut` reads from that scratch copy. A `finally` step removes the
scratch copy after success or failure. A failed removal is logged and
does not replace the transfer result.
- The launch root does not move. OpenCode still binds to the same
absolute paths. Core still verifies each downloaded byte against the
manifest SHA-256 values.
- `.paperclip-runtime` is already excluded from workspace sync, so the
scratch copy never enters the user workspace.
- The Daytona `assertConfinedSandboxPath` guard is not changed.

## Verification

- New regression
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-provider-artifact-capture-confinement.test.ts`.
It runs the real sandbox commands on a local directory tree that has a
home-rooted launch root and a separate workspace. Its `syncOut` applies
the same workspace confinement rule as the Daytona provider.
- Before the fix: it fails with `Daytona sync source path escapes the
workspace remote dir:
.../home/daytona/.paperclip-runtime/paperclip-runner/provider-artifacts/dfe9e4b1d660/bin/nodeCommand`.
This is the staging error.
- After the fix: it passes. The published bytes match, every export
source is under the workspace runtime dir, and the scratch directory is
empty after the capture.
- Safety cases: a failed transfer removes the scratch copy and does not
publish. A launch file replaced by a symlink is refused before any
export, and nothing is published.
- `native-session-executor.test.ts`: the durable OpenCode admission case
now asserts that the capture receives `remoteCwd` and that every
`syncOut` source is under `/workspace/`.
- `pnpm vitest run` for the capture, confinement, remote OpenCode
artifact, and session root entries tests: 14 passed.
- `vitest run native-session-executor.test.ts -t "opencode|provider
artifact|durable"`: 62 passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`: passed.
- Not run: a live Daytona run with this revision. The fix is not
deployed to staging.

## Risks

- Low risk. The capture now runs two short `sh` commands in the sandbox
and holds a second copy of the launch files during the transfer. The
files are bounded by the existing 512 MiB limit and are deleted
afterwards.
- The scratch copy uses `cp -P`, `mkdir`, and `rm -rf` from POSIX `sh`.
The Daytona image already uses these tools for the workspace sync.
- If the sandbox stops between the copy and the removal, a scratch
directory can remain under `.paperclip-runtime`. Workspace sync excludes
that directory.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 9f0ebf6f70 fix(accounting): close a run whose turn was lost on restore, and stop succeeded runs holding all work (#19724)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Budgets hold new work while the cost of completed runs is unknown
> - In a restart chaos wave, a native ACPX Claude run crossed a server
kill, resumed, and succeeded. Its usage receipt never became complete.
> - For the 10-minute closure bound, admission refused all work in the
company. This included tasks that never crossed a fault.
> - This pull request fixes the receipt for a turn that was lost on
restore. It also stops a succeeded run from holding all new work.
> - The benefit: one late usage report no longer freezes a company, and
hard stops still apply.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19700 (the accounting closure bound that this follows).

**What happened?**
A native ACPX Claude run crossed a server SIGKILL in the middle of a
turn. The Runner restored the session, and the run succeeded 54 seconds
after it started. All 17 usage receipts stayed incomplete. Accounting
settled the run only at the 10-minute closure bound. During those 10
minutes, admission refused all company work with "Company cannot start
work while completed runs await accounting".

**Root cause**
ACPX reports provisional usage (`runDeltaComplete: false`) until a turn
ends. The kill lost the turn that was active, so that turn never got a
complete report. The restored Runner failed that turn with
`provider_turn_lost_on_restore`. Native turn accounting
(`createNativeTurnAccounting`) required every terminal turn to have
usage, so this turn kept every later receipt incomplete. This was true
even after the continuation turn completed with full usage. The
admission gate then counted the succeeded run as a pending terminal run
for the whole company.

**Expected behavior**
The receipt closes when the run's turns end. A turn that was lost on
restore makes the usage a lower bound. A succeeded run with only usage
outstanding does not hold other work.

## What Changed

- `native-usage-accounting.ts`: a turn that failed with
`provider_turn_lost_on_restore` and has no complete usage no longer
holds the receipt open. The snapshot marks `accountingUsageLost`.
- `native-session-executor.ts` and `native-usage-delivery.ts`: such a
receipt carries the provenance note "a provider turn was lost on restore
and never reported its usage; observed usage is a lower bound".
- `anthropic-pricing.ts` and `codex-pricing.ts`: the rate-card pricers
keep a producer's provenance note.
- `native-usage-delivery.ts` and `usage-receipts.ts`: remote producer
delivery keeps a `lostOnRestore` marker on the receipt's producer event,
so replay also excuses the lost turn. Receipts saved without the marker
still replay.
- `budget-exposure.ts` and `budgets.ts`: admission waits only for
pending runs that ended without succeeding (`waitingRunCount`). A
succeeded run whose provider reported observed usage is bounded like a
running run: its observed cost counts toward spend and reservation
capacity, and its settled charge can still reach the hard stop.
- `budget-exposure.ts`: a closure that timed out because of a
control-plane restart keeps the unpriced-usage exemptions, whatever its
token count. Restart evidence is a replaced receipt source, a native
recovery transition that is not an ordinary same-run retry, or a turn
lost on restore. A second chaos run showed the need. It recovered and
succeeded, but its final usage report was lost with the restart, so it
settled as unpriced 0 cents. The blocking policy then opened a hard
incident and paused the company. A timed-out closure with no restart
evidence still counts.
- `run-cost-accounting.ts`: a lost receipt that carries a positive
provider-reported cost settles at that cost as an estimate marked as a
lower bound, not as unpriced.
- `paperclip-runner-tool-authority.ts` and `budgets.ts`: a running run's
own tool mutations are evaluated as admitted work. Hard stops and pauses
still refuse them. Accounting holds, recovering runs and budget inputs
that await evaluation do not. In a third chaos run, a live run's write
to its task document was refused during a temporary hold, so the run
proposed a blocked result.
- `doc/SPEC-implementation.md`: documents these rules.

Policy choice: a succeeded run's provider work is over, so it has less
unknown spend than a running run. Running runs never held admission.
Failed, cancelled, timed-out and interrupted runs still hold new work,
because their provider may not have stopped. A per-agent gate would
still freeze unrelated work of the same agent. A per-reservation gate
does not help when `reservationCents` is 0, which was the case in this
wave.

## Verification

- Live: a restart chaos wave ran master plus this PR (c2a48fb1e0) with
no masking. It passed 6/6, and every task crossed a restart. There were
0 accounting holds, 0 refused agent writes, 0 company pauses, and every
cost settled as estimated.

- Red then green: `native-usage-accounting.test.ts`, "closes a run whose
earlier turn was lost on restore, as a lower bound". It uses the event
sequence of the chaos run.
- Red then green: `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`, "does not
hold other work for a succeeded run with only usage outstanding". It
also checks that the hard stop still applies.
- I changed "neither pauses nor holds admission while a succeeded run's
charge commits" to the new policy. A failed run in the same state still
holds new work.
- Red then green: `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`, "never
hard-stops a blocking policy for a restart-derived timed-out receipt".
It uses the zero-token row shape of the chaos run and a case with
unpriced tokens. Without the fix, the company was paused.
- Red then green: `runner-api.integration.test.ts`, "lets a running run
write during a temporary accounting hold, but not after a hard stop".
- Red then green: `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`, "does not
hold other work for the s7504 succeeded row shape".
- Red then green: `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`, "settles a
timed-out restart receipt at its provider-reported cost, without holding
or pausing". It uses the OpenCode/OpenRouter row shape from a fourth
chaos run.
- `anthropic-pricing.test.ts`: the rate-card provenance keeps the
lower-bound note.
- Local: `closed-native-receipt-accounting`, the budget suites,
`native-usage-accounting`, `native-usage-delivery.integration`,
`native-runner-restart-recovery.integration` and `anthropic-pricing` all
pass (187 tests). Server `tsc --noEmit` is clean. `pnpm verify` asks for
CI coverage because the spec changed.

## Risks

- A succeeded run whose final charge is higher than its observed cost
can let one more task start before the charge commits. The hard stop
then pauses the scope as it does for a running run that overruns.
- A run that includes a lost turn settles with a lower-bound usage
figure. The provenance says so, and a later receipt still reconciles
through the late-receipt path.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 fc7e3a6503 fix(recovery): never replace a native session after a deterministic refusal (#19733)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native agent runs keep a saved provider session, and same-run
recovery resumes it after a failure
> - When resume fails and the checkpoint allows it, recovery archives
the saved continuity state and opens a fresh replacement session
> - Recovery used that path for every resume failure, including
deterministic refusals that left the saved state unchanged and repeat on
every retry
> - In five staging tasks a refusal (a protected launch argument, or a
predecessor tool call with no result) escalated into a replacement. The
remote archive move failed part way, the next attempt found no runner
state, and each task was blocked for workspace repair
> - This pull request stops before replacement after a closed-class
refusal, keeps the saved state, and hands the run to an operator with a
named reason
> - The benefit is that a deterministic refusal can no longer damage
saved state or open a replacement over an unsettled external action

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19659, Refs #19516, Refs #19334

**What happened?**
Five Codex tasks on Daytona sandboxes failed on staging. The first
attempt failed with a deterministic refusal:
- `run.attach cannot change protected launch arguments` (four tasks,
fixed separately in #19659), or
- `native_runner_source_semantic_reconciliation_required` with a
predecessor `paperclip_call_assigned_tool` call still pending (one
task).

The same-run retry then opened a replacement session.
`archiveContinuityState` failed with
`runner_continuity_break_archive_failed` and no detail. The third
attempt failed with `runner_remote_state_unavailable: exit=1`, and the
task was blocked with "Workspace repair required".

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Save a native session whose checkpoint policy is
`allow_replacement_after_resume_failure`.
2. Make the resume fail with a refusal that does not change state (an
attach refusal, or a pending tool call).
3. Same-run recovery opens a replacement session and archives the saved
continuity state.

**Expected behavior**
A deterministic refusal stops the run for an operator. The saved state
stays intact. A run with a pending side-effecting call never reaches
replacement. Transport drops keep the existing retry behavior.

**Root cause**
`executeNativeSession` checked only the checkpoint's replacement policy.
The closed failure class (#19334) only had an effect when replacement
was forbidden. Attach refusals and pending tool calls had no class at
all, and the source-reconciliation refusal was a plain `Error`.

## What Changed

- Runner (`provider_backend.rs`, `durable/mod.rs`): `run.attach`
refusals that would change the durable Codex profile or a protected
launch argument carry the closed classification
`provider_attach_refused`. An attach blocked by
`durable_pending_tool_calls` carries `provider_side_effect_pending`.
These refusals already leave the saved state unchanged.
- Contracts (`harness-driver.ts`): new closed classes
`PROVIDER_ATTACH_REFUSED` and `PROVIDER_SIDE_EFFECT_PENDING`. A typed
`NativeRunnerSourceReconciliationRequiredError` replaces the plain
`Error` at the five `native_runner_source_*_reconciliation_required`
throw sites. `runnerRecoveryFailureClass` reads the authenticated
command-result classification or the typed error, never message text.
- Runtime (`native-session-runtime.ts`): after either class, recovery
never opens a replacement session, whatever the checkpoint policy.
- An attach refusal ends with the existing
`NativeProviderStateIncompatibleError`, which maps to the existing
operator path `native_provider_state_incompatible`.
- A pending side effect ends with the new
`NativeProviderSideEffectPendingError`.
- Server (`native-session-executor.ts`, `native-session-resume.ts`,
shared `EXECUTION_RECONCILIATION_CAUSES`):
`native_provider_side_effect_pending` is a permanent failure and an
execution-reconciliation cause, so the board gets a reconciliation
(record whether the action ran) instead of a generic Retry. The
reconciled continuation does not rebind the saved session, which still
refuses attachment. It starts a fresh provider session in the same
workspace. The saved session and workspace are unchanged.
- Archive (`archiveContinuityState`): a failed remote move now records
the bounded (512 characters), redacted exit status and output in
`runner_continuity_break_archive_failed: exit=… timedOut=… <output>`.
The remote move already ran before the local move on `master`, so a
failed remote move leaves the local state in place.
`restart-interrupted-turn.ts` accepts the detailed message for its
reattachment-loss retry.
- Docs: `doc/execution-semantics.md` and
`packages/paperclip-runner/docs/durable-recovery.md` describe the new
rule.

## Verification

Red before the fix, green after (each test first run against unchanged
source from `origin/master` 644ee66f5d):

- `native-session-runtime.test.ts`, test "never replaces a session after
a deterministic, non-destructive recovery refusal". Red: replacement was
attempted (`TypeError: Invalid value used as weak map key` from the stub
replacement). Green: typed error, and `openReplacementSession`,
`openSession` and `openRun` are not called.
- `harness-driver-backend.test.ts`, test "keeps the runner's closed
class of a failed recovery". Red: the typed error did not exist. Green:
both new classes are read from the command result and from the typed
error. The same message text without the type stays unclassified.
- `tests/codex_provider.rs` (real durable executor and fake Codex
app-server):
-
`attach_with_a_pending_tool_call_is_classified_as_a_pending_side_effect`.
Red: `left: None, right: Some("provider_side_effect_pending")`.
-
`saved_codex_thread_attaches_after_a_release_changes_its_feature_toggles`
(protected sandbox change). Red: `left: None, right:
Some("provider_attach_refused")`.
- `native-session-executor.test.ts`:
- Test "stops same-run retries for an operator while a saved
side-effecting call has no result". Red: `expected
'native_session_interrupted' to be
'native_provider_side_effect_pending'`.
- Test "retains the local controller checkpoint until remote continuity
archiving succeeds: failed/timeout". Red: the message had no detail.
Green: the message has the exit status and output, a token in the output
is redacted, and the local runner and control-plane files are intact.

Safety and regression checks:
- New test "still replaces a session after an unclassified resume
failure when the checkpoint allows it". It passes before and after: a
transport drop still reaches replacement.
- Existing test "types a runner-proven incompatible session when
same-session recovery is required" still passes.
- `native-session-resume.test.ts`: a source stopped with
`native_provider_side_effect_pending` is not rebound.
- `run-completion.test.ts` "replays saved user intent through normal
Retry …" passes with the detailed archive message.
- Runner Vitest: `native-session-runtime.test.ts` and
`harness-driver-backend.test.ts` (266 passed);
`runnerd-codex-transport-warm-attachment.test.ts` and
`codex-app-server-driver.recovery.test.ts` (74 passed).
- Rust: `--lib` (560 passed, plus one ACPX timing test that failed under
load and passed when rerun alone), `codex_provider` (118 passed),
`native_provider_backend` (45 passed), `durable_recovery` (3 passed).

Not run: a live staging recovery at this revision. The local server
typecheck could not resolve the unbuilt runner package, so required CI
provides typecheck.

## Risks

- A run that a replacement session would have continued after an attach
refusal now stops for an operator. The refusal repeats on every retry,
so the replacement was the only way past it. It also destroyed saved
state, which is what blocked the staging tasks. A board Retry still
continues the task in a fresh session in the same workspace. This is the
existing `native_provider_state_incompatible` behavior.
- A new failure code `native_provider_side_effect_pending` appears in
run records and recovery actions. It joins
`EXECUTION_RECONCILIATION_CAUSES`, so the UI shows the reconciliation
flow, not Retry.
- An attach refusal used to reach an automatic replacement; it now needs
one board Retry. This is intended: the replacement archived saved state
and failed part way on staging.
- The pending-side-effect class means "no result delivered to the
runner". The controller replays a recorded tool outcome only after
attach. A call whose outcome the server already recorded therefore also
stops for an operator. That is conservative; the reconciliation shows
the recorded outcome.
- Only a pending tool call classifies an attach blocker. Other blockers
(active turn, ambiguous turn start, active goal) keep their current
behavior.
- The archive error message is longer. The one exact-match consumer now
accepts the `code: detail` form.

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, used through Claude
Code with tool use (shell, file edit, browser reads of staging).

automatically, without a port conflict.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A chaos replay (ACPX Claude on Daytona) sent SIGTERM while a remote run
was starting. The drain recorded `restart_suspended`. The dying
controller still launched the runner and finished `session.open`. On the
next boot, restart recovery returned
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence` with disposition `blocked`.

The decrypted controller checkpoint of that run showed:
- `run.prepare` completed and `session.open` completed (provider session
opened).
- Committed events `session.started`, `session.capabilities.updated` and
`session.goal.snapshot` (`ackedSourceSeq: 3`).
- No turn command. No run-profile session snapshot and no projected
provider events.

On the next run in that replay, a same-run bootstrap relaunched the
runner in the same sandbox (one lease for all attempts). It failed with
`runner_ingress_bind_conflict: failed to bind listener: Address already
in use`, because the interrupted runner from 51 s earlier was still
listening there. The bounded same-run retry recovered it on its last
attempt.

**Expected behavior**

When the durable controller record proves that no turn was ever sent,
recovery starts the bootstrap again. It first stops the interrupted
runner in the reused sandbox.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native run on a Daytona environment.
2. Send SIGTERM to the control plane while the runner opens its provider
session.
3. Restart the control plane after the controller lease expires.
4. See that restart recovery blocks the task with
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

Root cause: in
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-restart-recovery.ts`, the
remote checkpoint proof (`remoteBootstrapProvenIncomplete`, #19583)
required an unfinished `session.open` with no committed events, and no
provider events at all. A completed `session.open` with only
session-open events had no rule, so it fell through to
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

Refs #19583, #19616, #19684, #19524

## What Changed

- `native-bootstrap-proof.ts`: new `runnerdStateHasNoProviderTurn`
proof. The state must hold only `run.prepare` and `session.open`
(pending or completed) and no warm, staged or adopted state. Every
committed event must be a session-open event, with contiguous sequence
numbers from 1, so no event is hidden. Only the controller issues turn
commands, and it writes each one to Postgres before sending it.
- `native-runner-checkpoint.ts`:
`nativeRunnerCheckpointRemoteBootstrapProof` replaces
`nativeRunnerCheckpointProvesIncompleteBootstrap`. It also reads a
bounded number of `event:N` parts and returns which proof holds. It
still rebuilds the state in memory.
- `native-restart-recovery.ts`: a remote run can now claim
`bootstrap_incomplete` with reason `remote_session_opened_without_turn`.
Projected provider events may only be session-open events
(`harness.ready`, `session.started`, `session.resumed`,
`session.updated`), and only together with the stronger session-opened
proof. A turn or provider event still blocks.
- `native-session-executor.ts`:
- For a remote sandbox target, the executor accepts the same proof on
the restored record.
- Before the same-run bootstrap relaunches,
`stopStaleRemoteRunnerBeforeBootstrap` stops the interrupted runner in
the reused sandbox. It uses the verified identity marker and process
check from reattachment, which signals only a process whose identity
matches this run: SIGTERM, a wait of up to 10 s, then SIGKILL.
- The stop is best effort. If no prior runner can be verified, nothing
is stopped, and the bounded same-run retry still handles any conflict.
- `doc/run-log-events.md`: document the reason and the stop.

## Verification

- Red, then green: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts
-t "drained remote"`. Before the fix, the opened-session case (with a
projected `session.started`) returned `blocked` /
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.
- These keep the hold: a `turn.start` command, a committed
`turn.started`, an acknowledged event that is missing from the record,
and a projected `turn.started`. The executor test restores the
checkpoint and checks that the local proof is false and the remote proof
is true.
- Regression: `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration`,
`native-session-executor`, `native-restart-recovery`,
`native-bootstrap-retry.integration` and `heartbeat/recovery`: 1460
passed, 14 skipped.
- Stale runner stop: controlled sandbox-runner tests
(`native-session-executor.test.ts`, "stale runner stop before a same-run
remote bootstrap") run the real reattachment identity and process
scripts against a fake sandbox runner:
  - a verified runner that exits on SIGTERM gets SIGTERM only;
  - a runner that ignores SIGTERM gets SIGTERM, then SIGKILL;
  - a runner with another identity gets no signal;
  - no live prior runner means no signal.
- Live Daytona proof (wave `w-20261107T021837-s29`, ACPX Claude,
`--faults K2 --triggers time,result`, 4 tasks, concurrency 1). The image
was built from current master
(`paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:71f711ab…`), and its content id
matches this branch.
- All 4 tasks crossed a graceful restart, and all passed R1. Two of the
K2s fired on the `result` trigger, during a running remote turn.
- The K2 during a turn reattached to the live remote runner
(`reattach_remote_runner`, generation 2), as designed.
- Task t01 failed R6 with an orphan Daytona sandbox that no lease
references. The graceful restart came during sandbox creation. This is a
separate signature, outside this change.
- The timed faults did not land in the exact "session opened, no turn"
window. The integration tests cover that window with the evidence from
the saved replay database.

## Risks

- The proof relies on two facts: only the controller issues turn
commands, and the controller writes each command before sending it
(`#sendJson` waits for the checkpoint flush). A turn always leaves a
`turn.start` command in the record.
- The provider session opened in the old sandbox runner is not resumed.
The new bootstrap opens a fresh session. No turn ran in the old one, so
no work is lost.
- The runner stop sends signals inside the run's own sandbox. It signals
only after the existing reattachment identity and process checks pass.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file edits, GitHub CLI) and extended reasoning.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18639 for local work and incoming wake boundaries. Related #18829
covers suspension receipts after admission.

**What happened?**

Idle preflight did not retire warm Native owners. Three failed-close
paths could forget an owner without proving that its provider stopped.
CI also found a false chat rejection when a delivery changed from
processing to processed between two validation reads.

**Expected behavior**

Retire only idle owners under the exact bounded hold. Wait for closure
and file collection. Retain failed owners. Scan safety after
preparation. Keep diagnostic reads passive. A newly committed chat
delivery must pass the full current authorization checks before
attestation succeeds.

**Steps to reproduce**

Finish a warm Native turn. Start an idle drain and request safety with
its owner ID. Delay or reject provider closure, or replace the hold
during preparation or scanning. The report must keep the instance awake.
For the chat race, commit the exact delivery between the first binding
read and its fallback read.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Current head `7f6f02b611dcf5a9a2b05173a44e9631eaf78058` normally
integrates actual master `1aa0c3639714f4976cfa56f95aae6e2b7d1235ac`. The
merge preserves every unrelated master path. Fresh exact-head CI and
complete review remain required.

## What Changed

- Retain uncertain Native owners after failed restart, idle timeout and
failed-turn closure.
- Prepare Native retirement through the existing heartbeat facade. Reuse
provider closure and stopped-file collection.
- Track preparation under the exact idle owner and expiry. Reject new
activity, changed holds and expired holds before and after awaited work.
- Take the final durable and local safety snapshot after preparation.
Keep diagnostic inspection passive.
- Cover ephemeral workspace retirement and useful next use, supported
plugin drain and SDK persistence, busy owners, failed closure and hold
replacement.
- Keep dedicated recovery storage explicit. Use the same validated
options for support and storage. Probe-free helpers retain the original
implementation bodies and preserve default callers.
- Complete the Native fixture through real retirement and budget
evaluation. Keep its rejection, file, credential, accounting and strict
NONE assertions.
- Repeat the complete chat authorization once if the fallback sees the
exact batch now processed. Preserve owner locks, principal and binding
checks, denial handling and the original retry deadline.

## Verification

- The support-mode regression reproduces one failure with four passes
under the old policy, then passes all five controls. It retains prior
allocation and cleanup cases. The explicit mode does not probe embedded
PostgreSQL or use an admin alias.
- The deterministic chat race baseline reproduces two authorized
failures with all four current-authority denial controls passing. Both
Slack and Discord use real PostgreSQL and the real authorization
function. The negative setup commits before the attestation transaction;
it does not claim to revoke access through a row lock.
- The product fix passes normal own App declaration emission with no
public declaration changes, plus both current normal owning compiler
programs (399 and 611 roots). The same six controls pass after the fix.
The full original file plus these controls passes all 30 tests with no
skips.
- The original controlled Native continuation passes: one test, no
failures or skips, 1.718 seconds in its body and 23.138 seconds in its
launcher. The original 40-second case and 180-second outer bounds are
unchanged. It verifies held closure, strict NONE, an ordinary authorized
comment, saved session/files, useful output, encrypted credentials,
accepted results and settled accounting. All ten observed processes and
groups close; worker connections and listeners reach zero. A separate
post-owner audit finds zero sessions; the successful owned database is
normally removed.
- Earlier preparation, HTTP, lifecycle, workspace and plugin controls
remain source-specific evidence. They are not a claim that every
final-tree test ran locally.
- The original CI assertion log is retained. The controlled race proves
a possible cause; the original CI SQL schedule was not captured. Two
other jobs lost their self-hosted runners and provided no test verdict.
Earlier asset timeouts, readiness failures and unexplained later
recovery remain separately recorded. No timeout, failure predicate or
authority check was weakened.

Focused public commands:

```sh
pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/idle-sleep-preparation.test.ts server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-reviewed-chat-binding.integration.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
```

Local database qualification uses fresh owned test databases on existing
PostgreSQL, bounded pools and one worker. The local allocation adapter
changes only database allocation for this test module; it runs normal
migrations and client cleanup. It is not part of the published source.
No new cluster is created.

Local acceptance measured the `0a69efa6` integration with the same
committed authorization bytes. The later normal master merge adds
startup-timeout classification and recovery changes. Those paths are
outside the controlled healthy-backend witness; retirement and
authorization hunks are preserved. Exact-head remote CI at
`7f6f02b611dcf5a9a2b05173a44e9631eaf78058` has completed with 56
successful contexts and four skips. The complete current Greptile
summary is5/5 with no new actionable findings; all review threads are
resolved. Ponytail’s current turn is explicitly paused without a
current-head verdict; earlier actual findings are fixed and accounted
for. No whole final-tree local repository build/test run, live-provider
restore or deployed suspension is claimed.

Actual master subsequently advanced to
`d5c4f7dd02d408a261cedd9a1926b9900a4aedc4`. Its local normal-merge
projection with this reviewed head preserves all20 owned paths and every
unrelated master blob and mode. Current Runner TypeScript, App
declarations and their full owning compiler programs pass. Focused
Native cleanup and warm-continuation composition checks are being
completed before merge; the new upstream suspension-retry behavior is
not inferred from the older controlled-backend witness. The remote PR
head remains unchanged.

## Risks

- Privileged idle preparation can close idle warm Native sessions. It
requires the exact current hold.
- Failed closure retains its owner and can keep the tenant awake until
normal retry succeeds.
- A changed hold cannot authorize sleep. Started cleanup remains tracked
until it settles.
- The chat repair can perform one extra full authorization read. It
keeps the existing deadline and does not grant authority from the
fallback query.
- Unsupported resources and active work retain their existing blockers.
This PR does not certify every transport, plugin or deployed host.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` produced the delegated changes and verification.
OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, performed managing review and integration.
Both used repository tools and code execution. The coordinator's exact
backend snapshot and context-window limits were not exposed.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 30857db55e fix(native): recover a run killed between runner launch and its identity record (#19694)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs start a local `paperclip-runnerd` process. The server
records the request to start it, then records its process identity after
it spawns.
> - If the server is killed between those two records, there is no
process ID to check after the restart
> - Restart recovery then restarted the bootstrap, but the executor
failed with `durable_identity_unreadable` because the runner never wrote
its state
> - The user's Retry then waited forever with "Retry is waiting for
Paperclip to verify that the previous execution stopped", because the
stop check needs a process ID
> - This pull request restarts that bootstrap and proves on the host
that no runner for the run exists
> - The benefit is that a restart in the runner launch window no longer
loses the task or leaves Retry permanently stuck

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In restart-chaos testing, an ACPX Claude run was created and the server
was SIGKILLed 1.3 s later, right after `native.process_start_requested`
and before the runner identity was recorded. On restart, recovery
claimed `bootstrap_incomplete` (`dead_runner_before_provider_identity`).
The executor then threw `runner_state_identity_mismatch:
durable_identity_unreadable`: the state root existed, but
`control-plane/control-plane-state.json` had never been written. The run
failed with `native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`. A Retry was
accepted (HTTP 200), but no run was ever created. The issue stayed
blocked with `retryWait.reason=process_identity_missing` for over 20
minutes and through another restart.

**Expected behavior**
When the runner never wrote state, no provider started, so the bootstrap
can start again. A Retry should be admitted once the host proves that no
runner for the run exists.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at `fb3cf1a072`.

**Steps to reproduce**
Create a native local task and SIGKILL the server about 1 s after the
run starts, after the runner launch is requested and before its identity
is recorded. Restart the server, then click Retry.

## What Changed

- `migrateRunnerdStateRootForExecution` (`native-session-executor.ts`):
for a `bootstrap_incomplete` restart on a local target, a root is
quarantined (kept for inspection) and the bootstrap starts again only
when both of these hold:
  - the root has no `control-plane-state.json`;
  - no live runner for the run exists on this host.

A state file that exists but cannot be read, or a runner that started
but has not connected yet, still fails closed with
`durable_identity_unreadable`.
- `unidentifiedLocalRunnerProvenAbsent` (`native-session-executor.ts`)
proves that a runner is absent when both of these hold:
- no host process carries the run's `--run-id <runId>` argument
(`paperclip-runnerd` is always started with it, detached and
unreferenced);
- no saved control-plane state for this run exists, in the canonical
root or in quarantine.

A provider starts only after its runner connects and writes that state.
- `native.process_start_requested` now records the launching `hostname`.
- `recordUnidentifiedLocalRunnerStop` (`native-local-process-stop.ts`)
applies the proof only when all of these hold:
  - the run is native;
  - the run has no process ID;
- its latest launch event is `native.process_start_requested`, from this
host;
  - all of its leases are local.

  A launch recorded without a host stays blocked.
- The process listing runs asynchronously with a 5 s deadline. A failed
or slow listing proves nothing.

It then writes `native.local_process_stopped` with null process IDs and
`basis: "unidentified_runner_absent"`. A later launch request
invalidates it as usual.
- The continuation and Retry gate (`explicit-native-continuation.ts`)
uses this proof before returning `process_identity_missing`. A dry run
checks the proof but records nothing.
- `doc/run-log-events.md` documents the new receipt basis.

## Verification

- `native-session-executor.test.ts`:
- The bootstrap restart with absent state was red before the fix
(`durable_identity_unreadable`) and is green after it (root quarantined,
backend admitted).
- Unreadable state, and a live runner that has not connected, still
reject.
- Proof cases: absent → true; a live process with `--run-id <runId>` →
false; this run's saved state → false; another run ID → false.
- `explicit-native-continuation.test.ts` (embedded Postgres, real
admission):
- The `absent` and `dry_run` cases were red before the fix (blocked) and
are green after it (admitted). Only the real admission records the
receipt.
- The `live_runner`, `saved_state`, `foreign_host` and `unbound_launch`
cases stay blocked.
- Broader local run after the review fixes:
`explicit-native-continuation`, `native-session-executor`,
`native-recovered-owner-followup`,
`native-runner-restart-recovery.integration` and `task-retry` gave 1836
passed, 0 failed.
- A chaos replay of the original task (`--replay
w-20261106T232854-s7103/t26`) passed (R1 PASS). Its kill landed after
the runner identity was recorded (`resume_dead_runner`), not in the
launch window, so the tests above are what reproduce that window.
- `tsc --noEmit` for `server` passes.

## Risks

- The proof depends on `ps -axww` listing every process on the launching
host. If `ps` fails or times out, the proof fails closed (still
blocked). Remote runners and other hosts are excluded.
- A runner that was spawned but has not yet written its state could be
mid-start when admission runs. It would still carry `--run-id` in its
arguments, so the proof refuses.
- Only the bootstrap path with no state file changes. Ownership,
checkpoint and reattach checks are unchanged.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 9a52a2dfeb fix(native): retry ACPX session.open startup timeouts and give cold Claude a 60 s bound (#19661)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs start an ACPX provider through Runner. `session.open`
opens the provider session before any prompt.
> - On a loaded host, a cold ACPX Claude `session.open` took longer than
its 30-second bound. The controller reported
`runner_local_connect_failed: PRP command session.open timed out`.
> - The server classified this as the generic
`native_session_interrupted` with `ambiguous_state`, so the task was
blocked at once. A person had to click Retry, sometimes several times.
In one restart-chaos storm, one task needed three Retry clicks, and on
another task both Retry runs timed out too.
> - The server already has a bounded same-run bootstrap retry for
failures that come before provider work (#18854). It did not recognize
this timeout. The 30-second bound also cut off normal slow startups.
> - This pull request gives cold ACPX Claude a 60-second `session.open`
bound, like Pi and OpenCode (#19487). It also retries a startup
`session.open` timeout automatically on the same run, from clean state.
> - The benefit is that a slow cold start on a busy host completes, or
retries itself, instead of waiting for a person.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18854 (bounded bootstrap retry for definite `session.open`
failures), #19487 (60-second cold OpenCode admission), #19665 (the
bootstrap proof that this change reuses).

**What happened?**

ACPX Claude runs failed with `runner_local_connect_failed: PRP command
session.open timed out` about 35 to 40 seconds after they started. The
coordinator recorded `native_session_interrupted` with `recoveryMode:
"ambiguous_state"` and `providerSessionEstablished: false`. The task was
blocked with a board-owned action. No provider event and no checkpoint
existed. The host 1-minute load was 17 to 44, sometimes with no restart
nearby.

**Expected behavior**

A normal slow cold start completes. A `session.open` that still times
out during runner startup, with no provider event, no checkpoint and no
turn, retries on the same run with backoff. At most two automatic
attempts follow the first. A run where provider work may have started is
never retried automatically.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run ACPX Claude tasks on a host with a 1-minute load of about 25 or
more.
2. Observe a run fail after about 35 to 40 seconds with `PRP command
session.open timed out`.
3. Observe the task blocked with `ambiguous_state` and a manual Retry.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at `6c7cc2c5d6`.

## What Changed

The bound (evidence below):

- `coldAdmissionTimeoutMs` gives cold ACPX Claude 60 seconds (live
adoption keeps 30 seconds). The runner's Rust sidecar
`session_open_timeout` and the sidecar's provider handshake
(`acpxSessionHandshakeTimeoutMs`) give Claude and Pi 60 seconds too. All
three bounds must agree, or the shortest one fails first. Claude's warm
run attachment uses the same cold budget, like Pi.

The automatic retry:

- `nativeSessionFailureSourceCode` returns
`provider_session_open_timeout` only for exactly `<startup failure
code>: PRP command session.open timed out`. The startup failure codes
are `runner_local_connect_failed`, `runner_direct_wss_failed` and
`runner_ingress_unavailable`. The transport uses them only before
startup completes. After startup the code is
`provider_transport_failed`, which is unchanged.
- `nativeProviderRecoveryEvidence` treats the cause as pre-session.
Durable evidence still decides: a bootstrap retry needs no provider
event (`session.started`, `turn.started` and the others) and no
checkpoint. The existing budget applies: three attempts with backoff of
about 30 seconds, then about 60 seconds. When the budget is used, the
task is blocked with the existing "Provider startup failed on 3 attempts
before any provider work began" action.
- A timeout is indeterminate: the runner can open a provider session
after the controller stops waiting. Live runs showed both leftovers, so
the retry now starts from clean state:
- `prepareNativeSessionOpenTimeoutRetry` (server) runs when the failure
settles. It quarantines a local runner root only when the
restart-recovery proof (`runnerdStateProvesIncompleteBootstrap`, #19665)
shows that no turn began and every recorded process is gone. Any other
root, and any remote runner, stays `ambiguous_state` as before.
- `resetAbandonedBootstrapRecord` (runner ACPX adapter) runs on a fresh
open (no runner-recorded identity). If ACPX has a saved record for the
session key with no messages, no prompt and no events, it is marked
`reset_on_next_ensure`. Claude saves nothing before the first prompt, so
reusing such a record fails the first turn with
`session_resume_required`. A record that holds any conversation is
unchanged.
- A chat retry of an exhausted `provider_session_open_timeout` run is
accepted like the other pre-provider causes.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` and the Runner README describe the cause
and the bound.

## Verification

**Measured startup distribution** (ACPX Claude
`runner.session.bootstrap` / `runner.session.startup` spans from
restart-chaos run events, 1-minute load 8 to 44):

| Source | Bound | Successful cold bootstraps (s) | Failures |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Earlier storm evidence | 30 s | 2.9, 4.7, 7.4, 8.6, 8.7, 26.2, 27.4,
27.6, 29.2 | startups ended at 34.9 to 40.3 s (the 30 s `session.open`
bound plus spawn and `run.prepare`) |
| This branch, wave s3601 | 60 s | 6.3, 7.8, 8.1, 13.4, 14.4, 22.3,
22.8, 22.9, **37.3** | 0 `session.open` timeouts |
| This branch, wave s3602 | 60 s | 13 samples, p50 10.5, p90 17.9, max
25.7 | 0 `session.open` timeouts |
| This branch, wave s3610 (final head, load 28 to 42) | 60 s | 10.4,
11.3, 11.7, 12.0, 13.3, 14.2, 29.6, **30.4**, **30.9** | 0
`session.open` timeouts |

Under load, successes clustered just under 30 s and failures sat just
above it, so the 30 s bound was cutting the distribution off. With 60 s,
cold starts of 30.4, 30.9 and 37.3 s succeeded that the old bound would
have failed. 60 s is about 1.6 times the largest observed success, and
it matches Pi and OpenCode.

**Live restart-chaos waves** (local, ACPX Claude only, 4 in flight,
`--rc06-masked`, real provider, K1/K2 restarts):

- s3601 (8 tasks, load 19 to 32): 7/8 PASS. No `session.open` timeout.
The one failure is an R3 Retry signature after K1
(`native_restart_recovery_blocked`), not this cause.
- s3602 (8 tasks, load 17 to 39): 8/8 PASS. No `session.open` timeout.
Three Retry clicks were for `native_provider_terminal_failed`
(`provider_turn_lost_on_restore`), a different restart signature.
- Forced timeout, s3609 (4 tasks, B5, K2): a local, uncommitted fault
injection gave every other cold startup a 1.5 s `session.open` deadline.
Result 4/4 PASS. Run 4fe6537a timed out, retried itself on the same run,
and then succeeded through four K2 restarts with no person involved. Run
02799a85 hit the injection three times in a row; the budget stopped it
after attempt 3, and one Retry completed it.
- Before the two clean-state fixes, the same forced wave (s3607 and
s3608) showed the retry reusing leftover state: `turn.start` failed with
`session_resume_required`, and then "ACPX session is not open". Those
runs are the red evidence for the two clean-state fixes.
- Final head, s3610 (8 tasks, K1/K2, no injection, load 28 to 42): **8/8
PASS**, 0 `session.open` timeouts. The one Retry click (t06) was for
`provider_turn_lost_on_restore`, a different restart signature.

**Tests:**

- Red before the fix: `native-startup-retry.integration.test.ts -t
timeout` (embedded PostgreSQL, real executor, real resume claim). The 3
retry cases failed with `native_session_interrupted` /
`ambiguous_state`.
- Green: `native-startup-retry.integration.test.ts` passes 36/36. New
cases:
- for each startup failure code, a timeout retries on the same run with
backoff, keeps the task `in_progress` with an agent-owned
`resume_native_run` wake, and blocks after attempt 3 with a board-owned
action;
- no automatic retry when `session.started` or `turn.started` is
durable, when the code is `provider_transport_failed`, or when another
command timed out;
- a real runner root with an opened session and no turn is quarantined;
a root with a turn command stays `ambiguous_state` and intact; a remote
runner is never prepared.
- `codex-runtime-adapter.test.ts`: 113 pass. New cases: a 45 s delayed
handshake is admitted for Claude and rejected for Codex; a
never-prompted record is reset only on a fresh open; records with
messages, a prompt or events are kept.
- `abandoned-bootstrap-record.test.ts` (real `createAcpRuntime` with
`createRuntimeStore` and a controlled ACP peer that, like Claude, cannot
load a never-prompted session): without the reset, a fresh open reuses
the record and the first turn fails with SESSION_RESUME_REQUIRED after
`session/load`. With the reset, the provider receives `session/new` and
the turn completes.
- `vitest run src/drivers/acpx src/cli` in the runner: 107 files, 1,935
tests pass.
- `native-session-executor.test.ts -t "session.open|startup|bootstrap"`:
144 pass. `runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts -t "cold process admission"`:
4 pass. `cargo test -p paperclip-runner-core --lib admission_budget`
passes.
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p server` and the runner `tsc -p
tsconfig.test.json` pass.

## Risks

- **This changes Runner Rust code. The Daytona runner image must be
rebuilt after merge** for remote sandboxes to get the 60-second sidecar
bound. Until then, a remote Claude `session.open` still fails at 30
seconds in the sidecar (as a definite failure, which already retries). A
remote timeout stays operator-owned, because a remote root cannot be
proven clean here.
- A cold ACPX Claude start that hangs now fails after about 60 seconds
instead of 30 seconds.
- A timed-out `session.open` may have created an empty provider session.
No prompt was sent. The retry quarantines that runner root and asks ACPX
for a new session.
- Same-run retries of a fresh-attempt Retry run can still fail with
`isolated_task_directory_binding_mismatch`. This is RC-35 (workspace
re-preparation), which has its own fix in progress.
- No schema or API change. The new error code appears on runs and in run
error codes.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 6c7cc2c5d6 fix(native): do not spend a recovery attempt resuming a cleanly drained run (#19625)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs have an execution recovery budget of three provider
attempts, so a run that keeps failing stops retrying
> - A graceful shutdown (deploy or SIGTERM) drains native runs: it
suspends them for reattachment by the next server
> - When the runner did not survive, the next boot resumed the turn and
charged one attempt
> - Restarts that the run did not cause used up its budget, so recovery
stopped and the task needed a manual Retry
> - This pull request does not charge an attempt for resuming a run that
a graceful drain suspended
> - The benefit is that deploys and graceful restarts no longer exhaust
a healthy run's recovery budget

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In restart-chaos testing, native runs reached
`execution_recovery_budget_exhausted` (3/3) only because of server
restarts. In one wave, two restarts crossed each of two runs. In a
second schedule (K1, then K2 when ready, then K2 again), each drain
correctly suspended the local ACPX Claude run, yet the fourth boot
blocked it with `native_restart_recovery_blocked`. Every resume after a
drain was classified `resume_dead_runner` and charged an attempt
(`nextNativeProviderAttempt` in `native-restart-recovery.ts`, applied by
the executor's execution claim).

**Expected behavior**
A restart that the run did not cause should not consume its recovery
budget. A graceful drain records `restart_suspended` and
`awaiting_runner_reattach`. The resume that follows should keep the
attempt count.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at `4ef3fa4271`.

**Steps to reproduce**
Start a native local run. Send the server SIGTERM three times while the
run is active, with a full restart each time. The third resume is
blocked with `execution_recovery_budget_exhausted`.

## What Changed

- `suspendedByCleanDrain()` in `native-restart-recovery.ts` recognizes a
run whose most recent recovery claim is older than the drain's
`restart_suspended` entry. Ownership waits and deferred blocks between
the drain and the next claim do not erase it. The next claim consumes
it.
- A scan that waits for the old controller to exit (`awaiting_evidence`)
records one history entry per reason, so repeated scans cannot push the
drain record out of the bounded history.
- Restart claims carry `chargesProviderAttempt`. It is `false` for a
claim that follows a clean drain.
- `nextNativeProviderAttempt()` takes that flag. The executor passes it
when it takes the execution lease, so a drained resume keeps the current
attempt.
- The first execution is always counted: a run drained at attempt 0 (no
execution claimed it yet) still charges its first provider start.
- A run drained during its third attempt may continue that attempt. The
local resume and remote bootstrap gates skip the `>= 3` exhausted check
only for a non-charging resume, and the executor still refuses a fourth
attempt.
- A crash restart (no drain record) still charges one attempt.
Reattachment to a live runner still charges none.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` states the rule next to the three-attempt
budget.

## Verification

- New test in
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts`
(embedded Postgres, real heartbeat drain and restart recovery):
- Red before the fix: the claim after the drain had no
`chargesProviderAttempt: false`.
- Green after the fix, for drained attempts 0, 1 and 3: the crash claim
charges (`true`). After the drain, a controlled backend lets the
executor take its execution lease and records the saved
`native_run_finalizations.attempt` at provider dispatch: 1, 1 and 3.
Attempt 3 is claimed instead of blocked.
- Red at the executor: when the executor ignores the flag, the drained
attempt-1 resume saves 2.
- Ownership-wait case: the drained controller (the test process) is
still alive, so two scans wait. The history keeps `restart_suspended`
followed by one `awaiting_evidence` entry. After the controller is gone,
the claim does not charge, and attempt 3 continues.
- Classifier cases (local resume and remote bootstrap): attempt 3 after
a crash is still `execution_recovery_budget_exhausted`. Both new cases
were red on the previous revision.
- `heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts` 12/12,
`native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts` and
`native-runner-ownership.test.ts` 94 passed.
- `tsc --noEmit` for `server` passes.

## Risks

- A run that itself makes the server shut down gracefully, again and
again, would no longer be stopped by this budget. Graceful shutdowns are
operator or deploy actions, so this is unlikely. A crash loop (SIGKILL,
OOM) still charges an attempt on every restart, and a resumed turn that
fails still goes through the existing failure and replacement budget.
- This changes only the attempt count. Ownership checks, checkpoint
verification and the exhausted gate are unchanged.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 e89be6ee83 fix(native): re-bootstrap a runner that a graceful drain suspended during bootstrap (#19665)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs start a local `paperclip-runnerd` process. The control
plane keeps a durable state root for each session.
> - After a restart, recovery gives a run with no provider evidence the
`bootstrap_incomplete` disposition. The executor quarantines the old
root and starts the bootstrap again, but only when the root proves that
no provider work started.
> - #19524 made that proof accept a root killed after `run.prepare` and
before `session.open` (a hard kill).
> - A graceful restart (SIGTERM) leaves different shapes. The drain
sends `runner.drain` and `runner.suspend`, and the kill can land just
after `session.open` failed or just after it started a fresh session.
The proof refused both shapes. The run failed with
`runner_state_identity_mismatch: bootstrap_not_proven_incomplete`,
although no turn was ever sent.
> - This pull request extends the proof to both drain shapes and keeps
provider work fail-closed.
> - The benefit is that a graceful restart during native bootstrap
continues automatically.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19524

**What happened?**
Restart chaos waves (ACPX Claude, K2 graceful restart about 10 s after
the run started) failed with `adapter_failed` and
`runner_state_identity_mismatch: bootstrap_not_proven_incomplete`.
Startup recovery chose `bootstrap_incomplete`, and the executor proof
refused the state root. Two real roots were kept:

1. `session.open` failed (the ACPX sidecar timed out), then
`runner.drain` completed and `runner.suspend` completed. There was 1
connection, no committed or acknowledged event, an empty runner outbox,
and `nextSourceSeq: 1`.
2. `session.open` completed with a freshly started session (`status:
"started"`). The committed events were only `session.started`,
`session.capabilities.updated` and `session.goal.snapshot`, and the
runner outbox held one `harness.diagnostic` (the sidecar process). No
turn command existed, and the sidecar process had exited. The database
had not yet recorded the session events, so the classifier saw no
provider evidence.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start an ACPX Claude task on a local runner.
2. Send SIGTERM to the control plane about 10 s after the run starts,
before the first turn.
3. Let the control plane restart.

**Expected behavior**
Recovery starts the bootstrap again, and the task continues without a
user action.

**Actual behavior**
The run fails and the task stops.

## What Changed

- `native-bootstrap-proof.ts`, pre-session proof: a `session.open` that
is pending or `failed` is now accepted, as are the runner lifecycle
commands `runner.drain`, `runner.suspend` and `runner.shutdown` in any
state. The controller journal and the runner journal must both agree.
Any committed or acknowledged event, any turn command, a completed
`session.open`, and any queued runner event still fail closed.
- New `runnerdStateIsOpenedSessionBeforeTurn`. It accepts a completed
`session.open` only when all of these are true:
  - the session was freshly started (`status: "started"`, not resumed);
- the commands are only `run.prepare`, `session.open` and runner
maintenance commands;
- every committed event and every event in the runner outbox is a
session setup or runner lifecycle event;
  - `ackedSourceSeq` equals the count of committed events, with no gap;
  - the runner journal is present;
  - every recorded provider process ID has exited on this host.
- `native-session-executor.ts`: the executor applies the opened-session
proof only for a local execution target. Remote runners stay fail-closed
for that shape, because their process IDs belong to another host. The
remote checkpoint classifier still reads only commands 1 and 2.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: "allows a fresh bootstrap after a drain suspended
a runner whose session.open failed" and "allows a fresh bootstrap after
a drain that landed between session.open and the first turn" both failed
with `expected false to be true`. Green after the fix: the `native
incomplete-bootstrap evidence` block passes 32/32.
- Fail-closed counter-tests:
  - completed `session.open`;
  - committed event, acknowledged event, or queued runner event;
  - turn command, `turn.stop`, or a turn processed by the runner;
  - `turn.started` or `provider.event`;
  - resumed session;
  - compacted events;
  - no recorded provider process;
  - missing runner journal;
  - live provider process;
  - remote runner.
- I ran the new proof read-only against the three real kept roots: the
K1 root from #19524, the K2 `session.open` failed root and the K2
opened-session root. All three return `true` for a local runner. The
opened-session root returns `false` when the processes are on another
host.
- `native-session-executor.test.ts` and
`native-restart-recovery.test.ts` filtered to bootstrap, restart, remote
and drain: 333 passed.
`native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts` and
`native-bootstrap-retry.integration.test.ts`: 106 passed. `tsc --noEmit
-p server/tsconfig.json` passes.
- Live restart chaos replay: see the PR comment.

## Risks

- After a `session.open` failure or timeout, the provider sidecar might
have created an empty session. No turn command was sent, so no provider
work can repeat.
- An opened session before any turn is discarded, and a new one is
started. The proof requires a fresh `started` session, so no earlier
conversation is lost. Resumed sessions stay fail-closed.
- The opened-session proof is local only. It requires every recorded
provider process to be gone, so a live provider process blocks it.
- Out of scope: the Retry offer when the proof fails legitimately
(RC-05/06).

DottaandPaperclip 9197abf673 fix(native): preserve controller state when remote archiving fails (#19663)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native continuity replacement must preserve the state needed to
recover saved work.
> - The current replacement moves local controller files before it knows
whether the remote archive succeeded.
> - A remote failure then leaves the local controller without its
recovery files.
> - This pull request confirms the remote archive before it moves those
files.
> - A user turn that never started can use the existing bounded Retry
path after verified preservation and cleanup.
> - The task retains its saved work and can continue once under current
user authority.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19638, #19547, #19399 and #19659.

The prerequisite #19638 merged as
`0819f4ea78dd37fba87341b314be9dac078c1410`. This PR now targets master.
A normal dependency integration at `febed950f4` keeps only the six-file
archive repair in the PR diff. Fresh master-based CI and review are
required before merge.

**What happened?**

A native continuity replacement moved its local controller journal and
provider checkpoint. The following remote archive failed. A later
recovery attempt could no longer read the local recovery files. The
first-attempt failure also had no normal Retry receipt for the saved
user turn.

**Expected behavior**

A failed or timed-out remote archive retains the local recovery files
and starts no replacement provider. A user turn that has not started can
request one normal Retry. The existing user, provider-turn, Stop,
preservation, cleanup, budget and approval gates remain in force.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Keep a local controller journal and provider checkpoint for a
retained remote conversation.
2. Request continuity replacement and fail or time out the remote
archive command.
3. Check the local controller files before any later recovery.
4. Settle the native failure under a current user wake and recover the
saved workspace.

## What Changed

- Confirm remote continuity archiving before moving the local controller
state.
- Add the exact remote archive failure to the shared bounded user Retry
admission from #19638.
- Verify failed, timed-out and successful archive ordering with real
local files.
- Verify ordinary failure settlement and saved-file recovery produce one
fresh successor. Keep Stop, system wake and unsettled-provider holds.
- Document the file preservation and Retry contract.

## Verification

- RED: failed and timed-out remote archives removed the local controller
files. Reading those files failed with ENOENT. The saved-user Retry
request returned false instead of true.
- Initial archive unit verification: eight cases passed, including the
three archive outcomes and five existing Cloud archive safety cases.
- Initial stacked revision: `9104ee399b`, based on #19638 at
`d22d8f9d5ee3dc36550a94d55c1d8376f3b9aab2`.
- Final master-based revision: `febed950f4`. All 13 affected cases
passed across three Vitest files after dependency integration. They
include the seven-mode real PostgreSQL completion case, saved-file
successor and negative-hold cases, and real-file archive outcomes. All
seven server typecheck layers passed again. Module boundary, whitespace
and added-code-comment checks passed. All required CI passed on this
exact head. The final snapshot has 59 successful checks, three intended
skips, one neutral result, and no pending or failed checks. Current-head
Greptile and the independent review are both 5/5, with no open findings.
- Final local revision: `9104ee399b`, macOS ARM64, Node 26.4.0, pnpm
9.15.4 and embedded PostgreSQL. The three real-file archive outcome
cases passed. The real PostgreSQL completion test passed all seven
internal scenarios, including archive failure, prior provider activity,
system wake, Stop before and after terminal settlement, and stale
runtime promotion. Own Runner/shared/SDK builds and all seven server
typecheck layers passed. Nine saved-work continuation and negative-hold
cases passed. They verify exported file contents, one user-attributed
fresh successor, idempotent hooks, no second automatic chain, and
first-use manual Retry for held cases.
- `node scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs`, whitespace checks and the
added-code-comment audit passed.
- Focused commands from `server/`: Vitest with `-t 'retains the local
controller checkpoint until remote continuity archiving succeeds'`; `-t
'replays saved user intent through normal Retry'`; and `-t 'continues a
user turn once|does not continue automatically'`. PostgreSQL cases used
a fresh local cluster and a 120-second setup hook budget. Application
timeouts were unchanged.
- The initial stacked head passed all test, build, typecheck and E2E
jobs. Greptile and the independent review both scored it 5/5 with no
findings. These results do not replace the fresh master-based
qualification now running.

## Risks

- A remote command can fail after it changed remote state. This change
retains local evidence in that case. It does not claim a distributed
atomic transaction.
- The exact archive error can request one normal Retry only under the
existing saved-user admission. The normal path must prove stop, saved
files and cleanup before a successor starts.
- The protected launch-argument rejection remains enforced. Its exact
hosted argument difference was not available through ordinary access.
#19659 separately addresses a saved-thread feature-policy argument
difference. This PR preserves local archive evidence and does not claim
direct hosted verification of that primary cause.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 family through Codex, with reasoning, tool use and code
execution. The model is inherited; no override was used. The exact
serving model ID and context-window size are not exposed by this
runtime.

DottaandPaperclip 0819f4ea78 fix(native): verify controller ownership before retrying saved turns (#19638)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native task turns can keep a provider conversation from an earlier
run.
> - A copied conversation checkpoint names the new run before its
controller has attached.
> - A failed attachment can make recovery treat that copied identity as
current execution authority.
> - The current run needs its own durable controller checkpoint, or a
valid staged attachment, before exact resume.
> - This pull request checks that ownership and uses the normal Retry
path to continue a saved user turn after verified cleanup.
> - The task can continue once with its saved work and history.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19399 and #18860.

**What happened?**

A new user comment resumed a completed native conversation. The retained
runner process was gone before the new controller attached. The new run
still had a copied provider session ID. Recovery selected exact resume
for that new run and then failed its unchanged owner and lease checks.
Ordinary first-attempt failure settlement also omitted the saved-user
Retry handoff that restart recovery already uses.

**Expected behavior**

Exact resume requires current controller evidence. A saved user turn can
request one normal Retry after this infrastructure failure. The normal
path must verify provider stop, saved files, current user authority and
all execution gates before it starts a fresh session.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Finish a native warm run and retain its provider checkpoint.
2. Admit a user comment as a new run and copy the provider checkpoint
through the real resume producer.
3. Stop the retained runner before attachment. The real remote process
check reports that the process is not running.
4. Observe that the copied provider ID selects exact current-run resume.
Observe that ordinary failure settlement saves no Retry request.

## What Changed

- Check a bounded encrypted controller header for fenced remote Runner
recovery. Keep local Runner recovery on its existing disk-backed path.
Match the run, conversation and runner identity. Preserve the existing
staged-attachment path.
- Share the existing saved-user Retry admission between restart recovery
and ordinary terminal native settlement. Keep its exact infrastructure
errors, user wake, comment, provider-turn and retry-chain checks.
- Add real PostgreSQL and stopped-process regressions. Verify malformed
and foreign checkpoint holds, current-owner resume, user authority and
Stop. Verify saved-file recovery creates one fresh-session successor.
- Document the ownership and Retry contract.

## Verification

- RED: the real checkpoint rebind producer and stopped-process check
selected exact current-run resume without a current controller
checkpoint.
- RED: ordinary settlement created zero Retry receipts for the real
native failure code; expected one.
- Review RED: a real current local controller file existed with no
database checkpoint rows. The initial gate returned ambiguous state. The
fix takes a required trusted execution-target kind and applies the
database requirement only to the remote persistence path.
- Initial local revision: `3662055880ccf8e09c3c50a340897e16c78627e7`,
macOS ARM64, Node 26.4.0, pnpm 9.15.4, embedded PostgreSQL.
- Initial server Vitest: 42 selected cases passed across controller
recovery integration, remote restart adoption, ordinary run completion
and retained workspace recovery. The cases cover the stopped-process
producer, current/foreign/malformed ownership, automatic user
continuation, Stop, unsettled turns, system wakes and a manual Retry on
first use.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`: passed with this
worktree's Runner, shared and SDK builds and all seven server layers.
- `node scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs`, whitespace checks and the
added-code-comment audit: passed.
- Review correction: `8c795e2e0e44b5209da3e228593c5cd35e948cae`. The
real local/remote controller case passed against a fresh PostgreSQL
cluster. It verifies local disk recovery without database rows, remote
current-owner resume, and remote missing/foreign/malformed holds. Fresh
`node scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs` passed all seven server layers. The
existing offline chat reader now requests metadata only and retains its
full independent native-state safety check.
- A broader local recheck hit PostgreSQL setup/cleanup hook timeouts.
These are retained as failed setup attempts; the fresh-cluster
regression above passed. Required CI supplies broad final-head coverage.
- Settlement-order correction:
`dafb721c3bbb7ae86fbc3c9c6c953ace29ca088b`. The real PostgreSQL
regression first proved both failures: Stop after an already-failed row
created one Retry instead of zero; a DB-native promotion with an old
legacy caller snapshot created zero instead of one. All six settlement
scenarios now pass. The hook requires the local failed outcome and the
canonical settled native row. Fresh seven-layer server typecheck passed
again.
- Required shared fixture base integrated at
`d22d8f9d5ee3dc36550a94d55c1d8376f3b9aab2`. The six runner-skills
fixture cases and all seven server typecheck layers passed. Required CI
passed for this head:
[workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42309419592),
including all server layers, tests, build, Runner verification and E2E.
The final snapshot has 57 successful checks, three intended skips and
one neutral result. Current-head Greptile is 5/5; both concrete review
threads are resolved. The independent re-review ended without a final
response; its prior Stop finding has a real RED/GREEN repair.

The focused command was run from `server/`:

```sh
../node_modules/.bin/vitest run --config vitest.config.ts src/services/heartbeat/run-completion.test.ts src/services/native-runtime/native-controller-recovery.integration.test.ts src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts src/services/workspace-recovery.test.ts -t 'replays saved user intent|does not assign current-run resume authority|remote controller restart adoption|continues a user turn once|does not continue automatically'
```

## Risks

- A terminal failure of a fenced Runner adds one exact-run header read.
The read selects one encrypted header and limits inspection to 1 MiB.
Invalid or missing ownership evidence stays held.
- Saved user input can request one automatic Retry. It uses normal
preservation, current authorization, budget, approval, Stop and cleanup
gates. Unsettled provider turns and system wakes do not start an
automatic successor.
- This PR changes no provider process, credential, model or lease
authority checks.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 family through Codex, with reasoning, tool use and code
execution. The model is inherited; no override was used. The exact
serving model ID and context-window size are not exposed by this
runtime.

DottaandPaperclip 374a918d67 fix(runner): retain qualified OpenCode artifacts for cold recovery (#19622)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native recovery must keep admitted provider state and useful
workspace files.
> - OpenCode binds its saved session to exact executable paths and
hashes.
> - A replacement image can remove those files even when session data is
saved.
> - Retaining a manifest alone cannot restore the missing launch files.
> - This pull request saves the qualified files before provider work and
restores the same owned paths.
> - The benefit is cold continuity without relaxing the Runner guard or
replaying a prior turn.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19558. That fix retains the selected pack for ordinary
continuation. This change adds durable file retention for a cold
allocation. Related #19487 adjusts the admission budget; it does not
retain launch files. A search of open and closed OpenCode cold/durable
artifact PRs found no duplicate.

**What happened?**

A saved OpenCode session could outlive the image that supplied its Node
executable, proxy, and native executable. A new image supplied different
bytes. The Runner then correctly refused the changed launch profile. The
saved harness did not contain the old files.

**Expected behavior**

Core must save qualified launch files before the first turn. It must
restore those exact files under the same owned account and absolute
paths. Unknown ownership, missing files, and changed hashes must still
stop recovery.

**Steps to reproduce**

Start an admitted remote OpenCode session. Save its workspace, encrypted
checkpoint, and harness data. Destroy the original allocation and
controller files. Restore into a new allocation with an image whose
qualified proxy has different bytes. Resume the same session. The new
opt-in local qualification command automates this path with actual
OpenCode and a local synthetic model.

## What Changed

- Store company-bound, encrypted launch objects and canonical run/backup
references. Generate migration 0438 through the normal database
workflow.
- Stage qualified Node, proxy, and native OpenCode files under a private
content-addressed OS-account home. Record the account UID and exact
launch paths. Preserve the Rust profile guard.
- Gate first provider work on durable capture under the current native
claim. Bound Stop/deadline waits while the actual late transfer keeps
its worker and scratch ownership until settlement. Restore cold caches
with verified staging and atomic rename. Keep live reattachment and
historical image-rooted sessions on their existing paths.
- Reuse bounded canonical expiration owners. Atomically fence old
checkpoint authority with a strict company/run-scoped retirement marker
before external deletion. Keep its indexed cleanup anchor across failed
deletes and restart. Preserve earlier resume handles and reject later
header or source-consumer writes. Add no idle scan or network call
inside a transaction.
- Add storage, race, executor, filesystem, and actual Rust resume
regressions. Add the opt-in local Linux qualification command and
operating limits in `doc/opencode-cold-recovery.md`.

## Verification

- RED before repair: real PostgreSQL/AES cold restore lacked the launch
files; normal executor preparation chose the new image pack. Separate
regressions exposed lost upload receipts, missing cache repair,
last-owner retirement, an account-UID mismatch, and a resume-handle race
during external deletion. Each expected failure was captured before its
repair.
- Local qualification before the final master integration: 1,169
executor tests, 233 storage/archive/admission/expiration tests, all
seven server typecheck layers, migration safety, and the actual Rust
cold-resume test passed.
- The maintained Linux command passed with two cached immutable
Paperclip images whose proxy hashes differ. It removed the original
account/controller trees, restored the production published cwd under a
new lease, resumed the same actual OpenCode session, kept a useful file
and prior model context, and made one new synthetic model request. No
external model call or network was available in either container.
- The object-store fixture uses real encrypted StorageService streams
with an independent owned local directory. It is not hosted S3
acceptance or a complete task HTTP/actor workflow. Historical tasks
still require normal effects reconciliation and recovery after
deployment.
- Review regressions reproduced partial-cache publication,
resume-versus-deletion, fresh-writer and source-consumer resurrection,
and unbounded Stop/deadline waits before each repair. They now pass
through real filesystem, encrypted storage, PostgreSQL, and SDK
boundaries. File validation is split from database ownership (384/831
source lines).
- Clean runtime head `aadab7acc69ff959678030db46ffe2dcfbefe28f`: the
maintained actual OpenCode cold qualification passed with `dirty:false`.
It preserved the provider session and recorded launch paths, restored
useful workspace content and prior model context, and made exactly one
resumed synthetic model request. The 314,560,000-byte launch capture
took 23.118 seconds; the later harness was 833,536 bytes. Subsequent
repairs change backup-reference retirement and governed continuity-cache
classification; capture, restore, launch, and published-workspace inputs
are unchanged, so that runtime receipt remains scoped to those paths.
The continuity-break consumer is verified separately.
- Retention repair `c14d386cecf7123257918ba6a8d47307df2da397`: 68/68
affected real PostgreSQL/AES storage tests and 15/15 focused executor
authority/admission cases pass. All seven server typecheck layers pass
(source layers and unchanged test shards, with the final 590-file test
layer repeated after fixture edits). All review threads have
evidence-backed resolutions. Its subsequent CI caught the separate
lifecycle-classification gap described below. The refreshed Paperclip
review reported paused work, not a completed new review.
- Final head `4d1cd3e3309e328b11abc85adc6d78c6d0c7f55d`: all 19 focused
root-entry/executor cases and all three source declaration layers pass.
[Greptile reviewed this exact head at
5/5](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19622#issuecomment-6695984874).
Final-head [CI
verification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42308908167/job/128214100339)
passes: 60 successful checks, five conditional skips, and the explicitly
neutral paused Paperclip review. No check is pending or failing.
- CI also caught the launch cache missing from the session-root
lifecycle contract. Both the writer scan and a real governed-replacement
consumer failed locally before repair: old launch bytes remained in the
active root. The cache now archives with the prior session state; the
consumer verifies exact bytes are preserved in the archive and absent
from the active root.
- The latest review found that backup retirement could delete an
independent run pin while a selected session retained the checkpoint. A
real PostgreSQL/AES regression failed before the repair. Backup-only
ownership now uses a NULL-safe exact backup predicate; the run pin
belongs to fenced checkpoint expiration. The regression verifies
checkpoint decryption and launch-file restoration after pending-backup
cleanup, followed by deletion only after removing the final resume
handle.
- An executor first-session case checks new-session durable capture
through the real capture helper and receipt propagation into the actual
harness manifest at the backup boundary. Real storage cases verify the
run-profile receipt and canonical backup/run pins.
- Sequential closure reuse and simultaneous first admission are
different scopes. A deterministic two-uploader test measures both
independent uploads, one verified ready winner, loser-only deletion, and
usable restoration for both runs. Each capture is bounded to 512 MiB and
five minutes; up to three pending receipts per run are retained. There
is no claim of global single-flight capture or a company-wide egress
bound.
- Earlier optional warm-ownership verification encountered missing local
binaries. After exact-source setup, all nine ownership assertions
passed; two other suites encountered local PostgreSQL setup/teardown
contention, so those interrupted attempts are not passes. Required
current-head CI supplies the broad final coverage. No deployment or
hosted historical recovery is claimed.

## Risks

- This adds two tables and a forward migration. The file object is
bounded to 512 MiB. Capture adds one initial transfer; later harness
archives exclude those large files. Company-scoped ready objects are
shared and retained until the last canonical owner retires. Concurrent
initial admissions can duplicate bounded transfers; each keeps
independent ownership and cancellation rather than waiting on another
controller. A continuity break retains the controller cache with its
prior state until normal session-root cleanup, adding up to one bounded
launch closure per retired state.
- Cold continuity requires the same qualified Linux platform, supported
runtime dependencies, owned account UID/home, and published absolute
cwd. A mismatch fails closed. No alias or Rust guard change is included.
- Existing image-rooted profiles have no retained file object. This
change cannot backfill missing historical binaries. A fresh governed
session must reconcile prior effects first.
- Live reattachment does not read artifact objects. Storage or
provenance failures before a new turn hold admission. They do not grant
new execution, model, tool, or replay authority.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and local browser tools. The exact served model ID and
context window are not exposed in this session. No claim is made for
unavailable model metadata.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 15ee6a25a6 fix(native): re-bootstrap a claimed Daytona run killed before runner launch (#19616)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs on Daytona start a `paperclip-runnerd` process in a
sandbox. Restart recovery decides what to do with each live run after
the control plane restarts.
> - #19583 lets recovery start the same-run bootstrap again when the
Postgres controller checkpoint proves that the runner received only
bootstrap commands.
> - A live replay found an earlier window. The control plane died after
the executor claimed the run and staged the sandbox workspace, but
before it asked for a runner process. No runner checkpoint existed, so
#19583 did not apply.
> - Recovery classified that run as `ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`
and blocked the task. The task also showed "Workspace repair required",
which did not describe the real cause.
> - This pull request proves the "nothing reached a runner" case from
durable evidence and starts the bootstrap again. It also names the
restart in the settled hold note.
> - The benefit is that a restart at any point of Daytona startup before
runner launch continues automatically.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A chaos replay killed the control plane about 2 s after a claimed ACPX
Claude run started on Daytona. The kill came after `stage.workspace` and
environment acquisition, before `native.process_start_requested`. The
restarted server took over because the previous controller process was
dead. It then returned `ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence` with
disposition `blocked`. The task rested blocked as "Workspace repair
required".

Evidence in the saved database at that point: coordinator `attempt: 1`,
`controllerGeneration: 1`, previous controller identity recorded and
dead. Native workspace sync was `prepared`. There were no runner
checkpoint rows, no session checkpoint, no process PID or start time, no
provider session, and no execution-start or runner-sourced event. The
local session root was an empty directory.

**Expected behavior**

When durable evidence proves that no runner process was requested and no
controller checkpoint exists, recovery continues the run with a fresh
bootstrap. Any evidence that a runner may have started keeps the hold.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native run on a Daytona environment.
2. Kill the control plane after workspace staging and before the
executor requests the runner process.
3. Restart the control plane.
4. See that restart recovery blocks the task with
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

Root cause:
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-restart-recovery.ts`,
function `classifyNativeRunnerRecoveryEvidence`, remote branch. The only
no-checkpoint remote rule required an unclaimed coordinator (`attempt:
0`, no controller identity). A claimed run with no launch evidence fell
through to "ambiguous".

Refs #19583, #16349

## What Changed

- `native-restart-recovery.ts`: add the `remote_runner_never_launched`
proof, which leads to `bootstrap_incomplete`. It applies only to a
classic sandbox run with a prepared workspace and the preparation
fencing version. The run must have a real executor claim (controller
identity and lease owner) whose controller is gone (takeover allowed).
It needs no durable checkpoint, no session checkpoint, no process
fields, no provider session, and no provider evidence. The run must also
have no `native.process_start_requested`, process identity,
`adapter.invoke`, `tool.execution.started`, or runner-sourced event. The
same three-attempt budget applies. The shared event query moved into
`hasNativeExecutionStartEvidence`.
- `native-session-executor.ts`:
`restoreRemoteBootstrapCheckpointForRecovery` removes an empty session
root that preparation created. Without that step, the fresh bootstrap
read it as `durable_identity_unreadable`.
- `execution-recovery-resolution.ts`: the new
`executionRecoverySettlementNote` names a settled
`native_restart_recovery_blocked` hold as a stop after a server restart.
It no longer shows "Workspace repair required" because a later workspace
export was retried. Other causes keep their notes.
- `doc/run-log-events.md`: document the new reason.

## Verification

- Red, then green: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts
-t "unlaunched|never requested|Postgres checkpoint"`. Before the fix,
the proven case (lease live with a dead owner, and lease expired) and
the budget case returned `blocked` /
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`. The empty-root executor case
failed.
- Fail-closed cases: these keep the hold:
`native.process_start_requested`, a process identity event,
`adapter.invoke`, a runner-sourced event, a recorded PID, a recorded
provider session, and a spent budget. A live claiming controller returns
`awaiting_evidence` / `controller_still_alive`. The existing
"contradictory evidence" cases (`claimed` with no controller identity,
`launch`, `process`, and others) stay blocked.
- Wording: `server/src/services/execution-recovery-resolution.test.ts`.
- Regression set (10 files, including `workspace-recovery`,
`native-safe-replacement`, `heartbeat/recovery`,
`native-session-executor`, and `native-restart-recovery`): 2035 passed,
14 skipped.
- Live Daytona replay of the failing chaos task, 3 runs, sequential,
ACPX Claude, double SIGKILL, current master plus this change. Image:
content-matched `paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:5a29a797…` built from
c6eecac1e0, with runner inputs pinned to it, because the image-only
build sat in the Actions queue. Result: **3/3 PASS** (R1 pass; R2, R4,
R5, R6 and T pass). Each run's faults landed after the runner launched.
Recovery waited on the live remote controller lease, then continued
without a Retry. Run 3 continued through `reattach_remote_runner`. The
saved logs for runs 1 and 2 do not name their claim kind. The earlier
pre-launch window (the subject of this PR) is not hit reliably by replay
timing. The integration tests cover that window with the same evidence
shape as the saved failing database.

## Risks

- The proof depends on the executor writing
`native.process_start_requested` before a backend may spawn a runner
(`onSessionAdmission` in `executeNativeSession`). A future change that
spawns a runner earlier would weaken this proof. The fail-closed tests
pin the event as the gate.
- A fresh bootstrap acquires a new sandbox. The staged sandbox from the
dead attempt keeps its lease until run settlement releases all run
leases. It never ran a runner.
- The note change affects only settled holds with the cause
`native_restart_recovery_blocked`.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file edits, GitHub CLI) and extended reasoning.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 7941f6b051 fix(runner): show OpenRouter's invalid model ID as a model rejection (#19548)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs use the Paperclip runner with drivers such as OpenCode
> - When a provider rejects the selected model, the product shows "Model
unavailable" and offers a model choice
> - OpenCode reports provider HTTP errors as `APIError` with the message
under `data`, not at the top level
> - The runner then reported "Provider turn failed", so an invalid model
ended as a generic adapter failure
> - This pull request classifies OpenRouter's invalid model ID with a
closed provider-failure category, and makes the server keep that
classification
> - The benefit is that a person sees "Model unavailable" and the real
provider message, and can choose another model

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A chat evaluation selected a model ID that OpenRouter does not know.
OpenCode reported `turn.failed` with `error: { name: "APIError", data: {
message: "<model> is not a valid model ID", statusCode: 400,
isRetryable: false } }`. The run was saved with `errorCode:
adapter_failed`. The task chat showed "The OpenCode run failed before it
completed." and no "Model unavailable" marker. The provider notice said
only "OpenCode session failed.".

**Expected behavior**
A non-retryable rejection of the selected model is saved as
`native_provider_model_rejected`, so the product shows "Model
unavailable" and the model choice. The notice shows the provider's
message.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Configure an OpenCode agent with an OpenRouter model ID that does not
exist.
2. Send the agent a message.
3. Before this change, the run fails as `adapter_failed` and the notice
says "OpenCode session failed.".

## What Changed

- `drivers/opencode/provider-failure.ts`: a non-retryable OpenCode
provider error whose message says the model is not valid (`not a valid
model`, `model_not_found`, model not found or not supported) gets the
closed category `model_unavailable`. A provider that allows a retry
keeps the existing category.
- `native-session-runtime.ts`: a non-recoverable failure with
`model_unavailable` is a model rejection. The runtime reads the closed
category, not provider text.
- `native-session-executor.ts`: a non-recoverable
`NativeProviderTerminalFailure` that the runner marked as a model
rejection is saved as `native_provider_model_rejected`. Before, every
such terminal was saved as `native_provider_terminal_failed` before the
marker was read.
- `drivers/opencode/opencode-server-driver.ts`: the provider notice
summary shows the provider message from `data` when there is no
top-level message. Provider text is not used as the turn failure
message, so it does not reach `run.error` or Sentry.
- Tests: provider-failure mapping (retryable and non-retryable), runtime
classification by category, driver notice summary with no failure
message, and an executor test for the saved code and terminal
disposition.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run src/native-session-runtime.test.ts
src/drivers/provider-failure.test.ts src/drivers/opencode` in
`packages/paperclip-runner`: 16 files, 412 tests passed.
- `npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts` in
`server`: 1,152 tests passed.
- Negative controls: reverting the provider-failure mapping, the runtime
check, or the executor branch each makes its new test fail.

## Risks

- Low risk. Classification uses a closed category and a runner-set
marker, not provider text.
- The model check on the provider message is text-based inside the
OpenCode mapper. A provider that uses "not a valid model" for another
reason with a non-retryable error will show "Model unavailable".
- Provider text appears in the notice summary, as provider notices
already did for top-level messages.

ee6c101854 Reject failover backups behind the accepted event cursor (#19613)
A verified failover backup can still trail events already accepted by the controller. Compare the backup produced cursor with the registered controller state, or the supported local journal before registration, and reject stale files before remote sync. Keep the permanent replay-conflict classification ahead of generic Runner errors.

Validation: 1,192 native session and execution-driver tests and 10 workflow tests pass locally, together with the maintained low-memory Runner test project typecheck and fresh server declarations. All applicable checks on cd8c9cd07c are green (56 success, three skipped); exact-head Apex review is 5/5 with no unresolved findings. One e2e shard was retried after GitHub reported lost self-hosted runner communication, and the same-head rerun passed. No acknowledgement was lowered, provider replay authorized, or recovery files discarded.

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 a7d3d4b78c fix(runner): rotate local and external authority through one resumable path (#19547)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The Paperclip Runner moves a native session from one run to the next
with an authority rotation, for Codex and for every ACPX provider
> - A rotation archives the prior run's controller state under
`authority-epochs/` and archives the Runner state, locally or on an
external Runner host
> - If the run fails after the rotation but before the new Runner
starts, retry preparation restores the prior run's controller checkpoint
into the session root
> - The retry then finds an active `control-plane` next to the archive
marker and fails with `native_runner_authority_archive_conflict`. Every
later run for the session fails the same way
> - The local and external rotations were two copies of the same steps,
with different retry rules, and the sandbox archive script had a third
set of rules
> - This pull request gives every provider and Runner placement one
resumable rotation path, with the same retry rules for controller state
and Runner state
> - The benefit is that one failed startup no longer makes a native
session unusable

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. Bug description:

**What happened?**
A warm Codex session on an external (plugin) Runner failed its first
attempt after the authority rotation finished. The two automatic retries
both failed with `native_session_recovery_failed: Error:
native_runner_authority_archive_conflict`, and the run stopped. On disk,
the session root had
`authority-epochs/epoch-<key>/control-plane/control-plane-state.json`
and an active `control-plane/control-plane-state.json` with the same
identity (in this case, also the same sha256). The remote Launcher had
already archived the Runner state under the same key.

**Expected behavior**
A retry resumes the interrupted rotation. The rotation already supports
this when only the archive marker exists.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run a native Codex or ACPX session on an external Runner.
2. Start a new run for that session. Make the new Runner fail to start
after the rotation finishes.
3. Let the run retry. Retry preparation (`restoreWarmRunnerdController`
/ `restorePerTurnRunnerdController` →
`restoreNativeControllerProjections`) restores the prior run's
controller checkpoint into the session root.
4. The retry fails with `native_runner_authority_archive_conflict`. All
later runs for the session also fail.

The new `authority rotation after the prior controller state is
restored` tests reproduce steps 2–4 directly.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at 35280516c0.

**Deployment mode**
Hosted, with a remote (plugin) Runner environment.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Codex (native Paperclip Runner). ACPX providers use the same rotation
code.

## What Changed

- **One rotation path.** `rotateAuthorityEpoch` replaces
`rotateLocalAuthorityEpoch` and `rotateExternalAuthorityEpoch`. The only
difference between Runner placements is a `RunnerStateArchive` (`read`,
`archive`):
- `localRunnerStateArchive(root)` for Runner state under `<root>/runner`
  - `#externalRunnerStateArchive()` for a plugin task or a sandbox host
- **One caller.** The transport chooses the rotation source (the live
control plane, or the latest archive), then makes one call. Locally
owned state is still quarantined on failure.
- **Committed rotation, normalized once.** Retry preparation restores
the prior run's controller checkpoint, but an earlier attempt may
already have archived that authority and its Runner state.
`takeCommittedRotation` runs right after the transport reads the control
plane. When the epoch archive for the active copy's exact identity
exists, it removes the restored copy and continues on the archive-only
path. Every later check (the warm-handoff evidence read, the
source-attachment settlement read, and the rotation) then sees the state
the rotation committed, instead of reading retired live Runner state. A
copy that still holds an unfinished warm transition, staged attachment,
or pending `run.attach` fails closed.
- **Restored controller state.** When the epoch archive exists, an
active control plane with the same schema and the exact archived
identity is a copy of authority that the rotation already retired. The
rotation removes it and resumes from the archived snapshot. This
compares identity, not bytes, because a checkpoint restore serializes
the state again and drops fields such as `ackedSourceSeq`. Any other
active state still fails closed.
- **Duplicate Runner state.** Local Runner state now follows the
computer Launcher's rules: move it, accept it already archived, drop a
byte-identical live copy beside the archive, or fail closed. The local
archive also checks that the live state is suspended before it moves it.
- **Sandbox archive script.** The script is now
`REMOTE_RUNNER_AUTHORITY_ARCHIVE_SCRIPT` and follows the same rules. It
uses `cmp` for the duplicate check and fails closed when `cmp` is not
available.
- **Sandbox host preparation after a resumed rotation.** A resumed
rotation archives the remote Runner state without preparing the host
first. When `archiveExternalRunnerState` succeeds, the server now
records the archived snapshot path. The launch's host preparation
(`inspectRemoteHarnessState`) validates that snapshot instead of the
missing live `runner-state.json`, with the same provider-state and
identity checks. Only these host preparation checks use the archived
snapshot; close checkpointing and backup-restore verification always
inspect the live `runner-state.json`. The SSH staging check treats it as
present, so retired state is not staged back.
- **Host preparation.** The external archive prepares its host only when
it reads live Runner state. Before, only one of the two caller branches
prepared the host. A resumed rotation finds the state already archived,
and preparing again could stage it a second time.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run src/live/runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts -t
"rotation"` in `packages/paperclip-runner`: 16 passed.
- External and local rotations with a byte-identical, a re-serialized,
and an other-authority restored control plane. The first two resume from
the archived snapshot. The third fails closed and keeps the copy.
- Local rotation with an identical duplicate Runner state (resumes) and
a different duplicate (fails closed and keeps it).
- The existing crash-before and crash-after remote archive retry cases.
- Before the source change, the byte-identical external case failed with
`native_runner_authority_archive_conflict`.
- `npx vitest run src/live/runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts -t "transport
retry after a committed rotation"` in `packages/paperclip-runner`: 4
passed. These go through the transport's real start path. A completed
warm handoff and a source attachment hook now resume from the archive;
before the normalization, both read the archived live Runner state and
failed. An unfinished warm transition and a pending attachment fail
closed; before, the pending attachment was silently dropped.
- `npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts -t "remote
authority archiv"` in `server`: 6 passed. Five new cases run the real
archive script with `sh` against temporary files: a new archive, an
existing archive, an identical duplicate, a different duplicate, and no
state. The existing mocked archive test also passes.
- `npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts -t "resumed
rotation archived"` in `server`: 2 passed. A resumed sandbox with a
retained backup goes through the real archive script and host
preparation. It failed with `runner_harness_state_mismatch:
resumed_unavailable` before the host preparation fix. A settled close
checkpoint with no live Runner state then fails closed with
`runner_remote_checkpoint_incomplete`, rather than checking the archived
snapshot. Without a completed rotation, a missing live state still fails
closed.
- `pnpm run typecheck:typescript` in `packages/paperclip-runner` and
`node scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs` in `server`: pass.
- The full `runnerd-codex-transport*.test.ts`,
`cursor-cloud-runner-launch.test.ts`, and adoption test files fail on
the same 110 tests with and without this change. These tests need the
built `paperclip-runnerd` binary, which needs `cargo`. `cargo` is not
installed locally, so CI covers them.

## Risks

- The change is only on the rotation path. A rotation that has no
archive marker behaves as before: it reads and checks live Runner state,
then archives the control plane.
- A rotation removes an active control plane only when an archive for
that exact identity exists and the active copy has the same schema and
identity. A new run's authority has a different identity, so it cannot
match.
- On a resume, the rotation now uses the archived controller snapshot,
not the caller's copy. The archive is the exact pre-rotation state. A
checkpoint restore can omit fields from it.
- An external Runner whose options define `readRunnerState` and
`archiveExternalRunnerState` but not `prepareExternalRunnerState` can
now rotate a live control plane. Before, that branch required the
prepare hook. The plugin and sandbox drivers define all three.
- The sandbox duplicate check needs `cmp`. A host without `cmp` fails
closed as before.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, used through Claude
Code with tool use (shell, file edits, test runs). It diagnosed the
failure from the run events, the server logs, and the on-disk controller
and Launcher state, then wrote the fix and the tests.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 da9a4cb96c fix(native): retire a finished local Runner that stopped before suspending (#19597)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The native Runner path runs each per-turn agent turn through a
runnerd process, and the next turn must prove that the previous Runner
is finished before it takes over the saved session root
> - Under load, a local turn can have its result accepted while its
`runner.suspend` command does not finish, so the Runner's own receipt
stays unsuspended
> - The retirement proof that handles the same case for sandbox Runners
refused every local Runner with `target_not_sandbox_runner`
> - So the next turn failed with `runner_state_identity_mismatch:
prior_owner_terminal_state_indeterminate` and its session root was
quarantined
> - This pull request extends the retirement to a local Runner when the
prior Runner process is proven stopped by exact PID and start time
> - The benefit is that a follow-up turn (for example, after a user
answers a question) continues instead of failing

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19525 (keeps the accepted result in the same incident; this is the
next run).

**What happened?**

In the runner E2E cell
`local-session-integrity.runner-acpx-claude.local.structured-question-restart-resume`,
the first turn asked a question and its result was accepted. The Runner
then logged `runner did not prove durable suspension before checkpoint`
(`runner.suspend` pending, Runner lifecycle `ready`). After a server
restart and the answer, the next run failed with
`runner_state_identity_mismatch:
prior_owner_terminal_state_indeterminate;
retirement_refused=target_not_sandbox_runner`, and its root was
quarantined.

**Expected behavior**

When the prior local Runner is provably stopped and every other
retirement proof holds, the next run retires that owner as a continuity
break and continues. If the stop cannot be proven, the run keeps the
named rejection.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a local per-turn native turn whose `runner.suspend` does not
finish after its result is accepted (host load average ~40).
2. Start the next turn for the same session.
3. See `retirement_refused=target_not_sandbox_runner`.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/native-runtime/native-restart-recovery.ts`: add
`proveNativeLocalRunnerStopped`. It uses the existing restart-recovery
checks: the recorded Runner PID is dead or now belongs to a process with
a different start time; its recorded process group is not alive; each
recorded provider process is dead or recycled. A missing PID, start time
or process group, a live recorded process, or a start time that cannot
be compared is not proof. When settlement already cleared the run's
process fields, the saved `native.local_process_stopped` receipt is the
Runner proof. Extract `nativeProviderProcessIdentities` (checkpoint plus
run events) so restart recovery and this proof read provider PIDs the
same way.
- `server/src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.ts`
(`retireFinishedPerTurnRunnerdOwner`, `readSettledRunnerdProjection`): a
local target is now eligible. For a local Runner, the projection accepts
the Runner's own unsuspended receipt for the same identity and
unfinished Runner lifecycle commands (`runner.suspend`, `runner.drain`,
`runner.shutdown`) only. All other proofs are unchanged: committed
result, released lease, no recovery state, stopped controller, delivered
terminal, other commands complete, tool inputs answered, quarantine
copies. The process proof runs before retirement and again just before
the archive.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: describe the local case.
- Tests: seven integration cases in
`native-recovered-owner-followup.test.ts` and ten unit cases in
`native-restart-recovery.test.ts`.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: the four new integration cases failed with
`retirement_refused=target_not_sandbox_runner`, which is the incident
error.
- Green after the fix: `pnpm exec vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-recovered-owner-followup.test.ts`
35/35. The new cases prove that a stopped Runner is retired (root
archived under `continuity-breaks`, no quarantine), and that a live
recorded Runner (`runner_process_alive`), a missing identity
(`runner_process_identity_missing`), and a pending non-lifecycle command
(`journal_commands_unsettled(turn.start.pending)`) keep the rejection.
All existing sandbox cases still pass, including "keeps an unsuspended
Runner receipt decisive" for sandbox targets.
- `native-restart-recovery.test.ts` unit cases: recycled PID, live
process, unknown start time, live group, live provider, missing PID or
start time.
- `native-session-executor.test.ts` + `native-restart-recovery.test.ts`:
1190 pass. `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts` +
`native-restart-recovery-isolation.test.ts` (shared provider-PID
extraction): 81 pass. `tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json`: pass.
- Live: `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --max-parallel 1
--max-automatic-retries 0 --id
local-session-integrity.runner-acpx-claude.local.structured-question-restart-resume`,
3 runs at eec57dd5ed: 3/3 PASS. The host load average was ~15 (the
incident had ~40), and `runner.suspend` finished in all three runs, so
these runs show no regression but did not exercise the new retirement
path. The integration cases cover that path.

## Risks

- The new path lets a follow-up archive a local root whose Runner
receipt is unsuspended. This is safe only if the Runner is stopped, so
the proof uses exact PID and start-time identity and fails closed on any
uncertainty. `ps` start times have one-second precision; a sub-second
difference is treated as the same process (not proof).
- A zombie-only process group on macOS can report as alive. That keeps
the rejection, as before.
- No quarantine behavior changes. A refused retirement still quarantines
the root as before.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, through Claude Code
with tool use (shell, file edits, GitHub CLI). Extended reasoning on.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 586caa5f49 fix(native): hand a shutdown-interrupted startup to the next controller (#19596)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The native Runner path runs an agent turn through a runnerd process
that the control plane owns
> - A restart of the control plane must keep the task going without a
click, if that is safe
> - A graceful shutdown closes the HTTP listener first and then drains
the heartbeat runs
> - A native run that was between provider dispatch and runnerd backend
setup in that gap failed with `local_runtime_api_listener_unavailable`,
so the drain did not see it as running and did not suspend it for the
next boot
> - This pull request makes that failure a restart detach: the run stays
running with its claim, the drain suspends it, and the next controller
adopts it
> - The benefit is that a SIGTERM in this window no longer spends a
failure and a same-run retry, and the task continues by itself

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19530 (the same restart window, before provider dispatch).

**What happened?**

In a restart chaos replay (ACPX Claude, local runner), a
restart-recovered run got SIGTERM while
`createRunnerdBackendWithinSessionClaim` built the runnerd backend.
`resolveLocalRuntimeApiUrl()` threw
`local_runtime_api_listener_unavailable` because shutdown had already
closed the listener. The run settled `failed`. The drain then logged
`restartSuspendedRunIds: []`. The next boot used the one bootstrap
retry. A second SIGTERM hit the same window, and the task stopped at a
manual Retry.

**Expected behavior**

A run that this process cannot continue because it is shutting down is
handed to the next controller. It is not settled as failed.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native Runner task and restart the server (K1) so that
startup recovery resumes the run.
2. Send SIGTERM while the resumed run sets up its runnerd backend.
3. See the run fail with `local_runtime_api_listener_unavailable` and
the drain report no suspended runs.

## What Changed

- `server/src/runtime-api.ts`: `resolveLocalRuntimeApiUrl()` throws the
new `LocalRuntimeApiListenerClosedError` when this process had a
listener and closed it (the `listening` flag is false or the `close`
event fired). The error message stays
`local_runtime_api_listener_unavailable`, so the existing classifiers do
not change. A listener that never started still throws the plain error.
- `server/src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.ts`: for a
local Runner, the startup failure handler treats
`LocalRuntimeApiListenerClosedError` like a restart detach. It stops
lease renewal, keeps the claim and throws
`NativeControllerDetachedForRestartError`. Heartbeat already keeps such
a run `running`. A remote Runner keeps the same-run bootstrap retry from
#19462, because startup recovery has no process evidence to adopt a
claimed remote startup
(`native-runner-restart-preparation.integration.test.ts` still covers
that path).
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: describe the new rule.
- Tests: a heartbeat regression that closes the real runtime API
listener before backend setup, then drains and restarts; a unit test for
the closed versus never-started listener; two `vi.mock` factories keep
the real module exports.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: `pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts -t listener`
failed with `restartSuspendedRunIds: []` and the run `failed`
(`local_runtime_api_listener_unavailable`, `bootstrap_retry`).
- Green after the fix: the same test passes. The drain suspends the run,
the run stays `running` with `awaiting_runner_reattach`, and the next
controller claims it and reaches the backend once.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts
src/http/server.test.ts
src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-recovered-owner-followup.test.ts`:
1333 tests pass. One timing test in `native-session-executor.test.ts`
failed once under host load average ~30 and passed alone.
- `pnpm exec tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json`: pass.
- Live, restart chaos harness, local ACPX Claude (`claude-sonnet-5`),
`--rc06-masked`, this branch at a35ec8b845 (before the remote-scope
commit 5dc63f24fb, which does not change the local path). The original
replay schedule no longer reached the window, because the task now ends
before the second fault. So I moved the faults earlier: K1 at 10 s, then
K2 as soon as the recovered server is ready.
- K1 + K2, 2 runs: both runs PASS with **R1 pass**. Each drain logged
`restartSuspendedRunIds: [<run>]` (before: `[]`). The next boot
classified the run `resume_dead_runner` and the same run completed. No
`local_runtime_api_listener_unavailable` failure.
- K1 + K2 + K2, 2 runs: each drain suspended the run. The fourth boot
blocked the run with `native_restart_recovery_blocked`, because three
restart claims used the three-attempt recovery budget. Retry then
completed the task (R3 pass). That budget count is a separate open item.
This pull request does not change it.

## Risks

- Low. The new path applies only after this process closed its own
listener, which happens only during shutdown. The run then waits for the
drain or the next boot, as for the other restart detaches.
- If shutdown does not reach the drain (for example SIGKILL after the
listener closes), the run keeps its live claim until the claim expires.
Then startup recovery handles it as a hard restart. This is the same as
any run that is running at a hard kill.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, through Claude Code
with tool use (shell, file edits, GitHub CLI). Extended reasoning on.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 d728be8fbf fix(native): re-bootstrap a Daytona runner restarted before session.open (#19583)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs on Daytona start a `paperclip-runnerd` process in a
sandbox. The local control plane keeps the runner's controller state in
an encrypted Postgres checkpoint.
> - When the control plane restarts, restart recovery classifies each
live native run and decides to reattach, resume, bootstrap again, or
hold the task.
> - A restart chaos wave killed the control plane twice while a Daytona
runner was connecting. The run was claimed and the sandbox runner was
launched, but `session.open` never completed. No provider evidence
existed.
> - Recovery waited correctly for the old 60 s controller lease to
expire. Then the classifier had no rule for a claimed remote bootstrap.
It returned `ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence` and blocked the task as
"Workspace repair required".
> - The controller writes each command to the Postgres checkpoint before
it sends it. After the lease expires, that checkpoint is the complete
record of what reached the sandbox runner.
> - This pull request lets recovery prove from that checkpoint that no
provider work exists, and then start the same-run bootstrap again.
> - The benefit is that a restart during Daytona runner startup
continues automatically instead of stopping the task.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A restart during Daytona remote runner startup (native ACPX Claude, two
SIGKILLs about 20 s apart) left the task blocked. The run history showed
`remote_controller_lease_live` twice, then
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence` with disposition `blocked`. The
task showed "Workspace repair required"
(`native_restart_recovery_blocked`) and did not continue.

**Expected behavior**

When the durable controller record proves that the runner received only
bootstrap commands, recovery continues the run with a fresh bootstrap.
Any evidence of provider work keeps the hold.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native run on a Daytona environment.
2. Kill the control plane after the sandbox runner connects and before
`session.open` completes.
3. Restart the control plane and wait for the old controller lease to
expire.
4. See that restart recovery blocks the task with
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

Root cause:
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-restart-recovery.ts`
`classifyNativeRunnerRecoveryEvidence`, remote branch. It admitted only
an unclaimed bootstrap (`remote_execution_never_claimed`, #16349) or a
run with a provider checkpoint. A claimed bootstrap with no provider
evidence fell through to `ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

The decrypted checkpoint of the failed run held `connectionCount: 1`,
`run.prepare` delivered once and pending, `session.open` pending and
never delivered, no committed events, and `ackedSourceSeq: 0`.

Refs #16349, #19524

## What Changed

- `native-bootstrap-proof.ts`: move the incomplete-bootstrap predicates
from the executor into a small pure module. Restart recovery and the
executor now use the same proof. No behavior change.
- `native-runner-checkpoint.ts`: add
`nativeRunnerCheckpointProvesIncompleteBootstrap`. It reads only a
checkpoint with the bootstrap parts (header, cursor, `command:1`,
`command:2`), checks the run, runner instance, and session identity, and
applies the shared proof. A remote runner journal is not on this host,
so the proof uses the controller record alone.
- `native-restart-recovery.ts`: for a classic sandbox run whose owner
lease has expired, with a durable checkpoint, no session checkpoint, no
provider evidence, and no staged attachment, claim
`bootstrap_incomplete` with the reason
`remote_bootstrap_proven_incomplete` when the checkpoint proof holds. At
three provider attempts, block with
`execution_recovery_budget_exhausted`.
- `native-session-executor.ts`: add
`restoreRemoteBootstrapCheckpointForRecovery`. For a
`bootstrap_incomplete` recovery on a sandbox target, it restores the
Postgres checkpoint over the local external-state marker. The existing
incomplete-bootstrap proof then checks the restored state before it
quarantines the root and bootstraps again.
- `doc/run-log-events.md`: document the new disposition reason.

## Verification

- Red, then green: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts
-t "remote bootstrap"`. Before the fix, the proven case and the budget
case returned `blocked` / `ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.
- New cases: the proven claimed bootstrap gets `bootstrap_incomplete`
(attempt kept, generation +1, run still `running`, no recovery action).
The hold stays for a queued `turn.start`, an acknowledged event, adopted
state, no checkpoint, and a spent budget. The executor helper restores
the checkpoint only for a bootstrap recovery on a classic sandbox and
only over a marker for the same run.
- Regression set: `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration`,
`native-session-executor`, `native-restart-recovery`,
`native-bootstrap-retry.integration`, `heartbeat/recovery`: 1383 passed,
14 skipped.
- Live Daytona replay of the failing chaos task (double SIGKILL during
remote runner startup), 3 runs: REPLAY_RESULTS

## Risks

- A fresh bootstrap acquires a new sandbox. The old sandbox keeps its
lease until run settlement releases all run leases. The old runner gets
no turn command, because only the controller issues one and the new
controller never connects to it.
- If `session.open` reached the old runner, the old provider session can
exist without a turn. No provider work or tool call can happen in it.
- Any checkpoint shape other than the bootstrap-only shape keeps the
previous fail-closed hold.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file edits, GitHub CLI) and extended reasoning.

DottaandPaperclip b55d8a9201 fix(runner): retain admitted OpenCode pack on ordinary continuation (#19558)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and preserves their work across runs.
> - Native OpenCode turns can restore a saved provider session after the
prior daemon stops.
> - The Rust provider binds that saved state to exact qualified launch
paths and artifact bytes.
> - Ordinary continuation selected the current provider pack, although
live reattachment retained the admitted pack.
> - A new proxy or a diagnostics setting could therefore replace the
launch profile behind saved state.
> - This pull request retains the recorded pack for ordinary OpenCode
continuation with a verified durable binding.
> - The benefit is compatible continuation without weakening artifact
integrity or granting replay authority.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #17512, #18237. These added saved authority and compatible pack
reuse. This change covers ordinary OpenCode continuation.

**What happened?**

An ordinary remote OpenCode continuation could select a newer pack while
restoring its existing provider session. The Rust recovery guard then
rejected the changed launch profile. The same error can occur after a
controller release changes the bundled proxy.

**Expected behavior**

A continuation with a valid saved binding and pack receipt uses the same
admitted artifacts. If those artifacts are unavailable, it holds the
saved state instead of selecting another pack or creating a provider
session.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Admit a remote OpenCode session with a qualified protected provider
pack.
2. Persist its pack receipt and suspended durable Runner state.
3. Change the controller bundle to a valid pack with a different proxy
digest.
4. Start an ordinary continuation with diagnostics enabled.

The new executor regression fails before the repair because selection
rejects the available original pack in favor of the new bundle. It
passes after the repair.

## What Changed

- Retain the saved provider pack for ordinary OpenCode continuation with
a verified durable session binding.
- Keep provider-pack retention independent of surviving-daemon identity:
a new daemon records its current binary, and an authorized continuity
break restores normal compatible pack selection.
- Test retained pack selection after a proxy upgrade and fail closed
when only a newer pack is available.
- Test the real Rust executor with changed, valid proxy file bytes. It
rejects drift without changing saved state and accepts the original
artifacts again.
- Document the selection rule and its limits.

## Verification

- Initial prevention focused Vitest: 220 passed across native session
execution, pack authority, pack verification and pack preparation. The
executor regression was observed failing before the production change.
- Rust native provider tests: all five OpenCode tests passed. These
include the existing drift guard, actual changed proxy bytes, original
artifact restoration and restart-lost turn behavior.
- Advisory review follow-up: reproduced stale daemon identity in the
actual executor and incompatible pack selection after a governed
continuity archive. Both fail before their corresponding repairs and
pass after them. Added an executor regression for a missing authority
receipt; it remains at the current release integrity gate without
creating a new receipt.
- Updated head `639c080856` integrates master `17901d74ba` by normal
merge. Affected Vitest: 202 passed across four files, including all new
review regressions; all seven server typecheck layers passed. Exact-head
CI and fresh Greptile/Paperclip review are pending. The prior head had
57 successful checks plus successful Snyk and Greptile 5/5; those
results do not qualify this revision.
- Environment: macOS arm64, Node 26.4.0, locked pnpm 9.15.4
dependencies, controlled remote command boundary and real Rust provider
executor. No paid provider calls or hosted retries.
- This is a bounded prevention change. It does not deliver historical
provider artifacts to a replacement sandbox or replacement controller.
Missing saved receipts or unavailable old artifacts remain a separate
cold-recovery gap. No full hosted recovery is claimed.

## Risks

- A continuation now requires its exact recorded pack when it has a
durable binding. A newer installed pack cannot substitute for missing
historical bytes.
- Fresh launches, other providers and explicit continuity replacement
keep their existing paths. Current ownership, company, model, permission
and receipt binding checks remain in effect.
- The repair does not relax the Rust launch-profile guard, replay prior
tool effects, or authorize a new provider conversation. Existing
published review receipts remain history.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The host does not expose the exact model ID
or context window. Capabilities used: reasoning, code editing, shell
execution, tests and authenticated read-only browser diagnostics.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 1391f64551 Add gated release/resume methods to plugin Runner owners (#19584)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Core owns Runner tasks through a lease-bound plugin owner.
> - The SDK already defines release and resume in #19468.
> - The owner still expects an accepted result for both operations, so
it cannot use those SDK results.
> - This pull request adds both methods behind the existing capability,
warm-task and account checks.
> - It uses the SDK parser to verify the result and task ID, and
preserves the owner's cancellation checks.
> - This prepares the owner boundary for later lifecycle integration. It
does not start automatic release or resume.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

The plugin Runner owner cannot forward the existing SDK release/resume
pair. Its local result mapping rejects their valid results. Later
lifecycle code needs both operations on the same checked task owner.

**Proposed solution**

Pass the existing description capability to the owner. Add explicit
release and resume methods and use the SDK's operation-result parser.
Require warm-task support and a selected account. Reject calls and late
receipts after owner cancellation or detachment.

**Alternatives considered**

Adding automatic release here would also require connection quieting,
settled-event drain, pending-ticket retry ownership and safe disposal.
Keep those changes together in the next integration. Do not add a new
flag, schema, timer or lifecycle mode here.

Related: #19468. I checked ROADMAP.md and found no duplicate planned
item. An open-PR title search for release/resume found no overlapping
pull request.

## What Changed

- Add the capability-gated owner facade for Codex and ACPX. Resume
returns only `resumed` or `unavailable`.
- Use the SDK parser for exact task-ID and operation-result validation.
- Pass `releaseResumeVersion` from the checked description and test that
it does not cause an automatic operation.
- Cover account-preserving owner rebind, missing prerequisites,
malformed results, ambiguous errors, cancellation and late replies.
- Document the caller's remaining settlement, connection, ticket and
attachment duties.

## Verification

Passed locally on Node 26.12.0 with the pinned workspace dependencies:

- In `server/`: `pnpm exec vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/plugin-runner-task.test.ts` — 74 tests
passed.
- In `server/`: `pnpm exec vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts -t 'uses a
task-only'` — 3 cases passed; 1,160 unrelated cases were not selected.
- Built the real workspace SDK dependencies and Runner TypeScript. A
focused strict TypeScript program for the owner and its tests passed.
- `git diff --check` and the added-line secret/PII scan passed.

The first root test command selected a nonexistent Vitest project name
and ran no tests. Running the test from the server package fixed the
command. The first focused TypeScript setup could not find Node types;
pointing it to the package's installed type definitions fixed that
setup. The full regression suite and release checks run in GitHub.

## Risks

The facade has no automatic caller. Existing warm timeout, bootstrap,
outbound connection and pool behavior stay in place. No plugin
capability is advertised or task control channel enabled by this pull
request.

Future integration must serialize release with new work and disposal. It
must quiet the owned connection, keep the exact pending ticket after an
ambiguous reply, authenticate the source again and finish ordinary run
attachment before new work. This change does not qualify provider
parking, cold recovery, retention policy or deployment.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol, exact model ID `gpt-6.1-sol`, High reasoning. Used
code execution and targeted tests. The context-window size was not
exposed.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 07ddf9a5c2 fix(native): keep accepted results when runner close cannot prove suspension (#19525)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs persist an accepted result first. The Runner then closes
and suspends its session.
> - Under heavy host load, the Runner close can fail to prove a durable
suspension after the result is accepted.
> - The executor then kept its finalization lease. The heartbeat
finalizer got `native_finalization_lease_busy`, and the run ended
`failed/adapter_failed`.
> - The provider work was complete. Only Runner bookkeeping failed, so
the run must not fail.
> - This pull request hands the exact lease to finalization and
completes the run from its accepted result.
> - The benefit is that an accepted result stays accepted, independent
of host load.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native ACPX Claude run asked a structured question. The control plane
accepted its result (`Waiting for…`) and recorded `run.terminal` with
`runTerminalState=succeeded`. The Runner close then took about 8.6 s.
Its `runner.suspend` command ended `failed`, but the durable Runner
state was `suspended` with a matching identity. The close threw
`NativeSessionCloseUnrecoverableError`. The executor emitted
`native.post_result_failure` (`category: runner_settlement_incomplete`,
`resultAlreadyAccepted: true`) and rethrew `native_session_lease_lost`.
Its finalization lease stayed held (its TTL is 20 minutes).
`finalizeNativeRun` got `native_finalization_lease_busy`, and the run
ended `failed/adapter_failed`. No restart was in progress. Host load
average was about 40.

**Expected behavior**

After the control plane accepts a result, finalization bookkeeping must
not fail the run. The run settles from its accepted result. Repair of
the Runner checkpoint stays with the existing next-run admission rules.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run `pnpm exec vitest run
src/services/heartbeat/runtime-execution.test.ts -t "accepted local
result"` in `server/`. The test uses the real executor, the real
control-plane result commit, and embedded PostgreSQL. The provider
boundary accepts a result and then throws
`NativeSessionCloseUnrecoverableError`. On the base revision, the
finalization row keeps the executor lease (`phase:
workspace_finalizing`) and the finalizer reports `lease_busy`.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Base `ff1d1dea5d`. The incident was on `819420a60a`.

## What Changed

- `native-session-executor.ts`: after the rejected failure write proves
an accepted result under the exact, unexpired lease, the executor
releases that lease to finalization. It uses the same exact-authority
predicates as the normal release. Before, the lease stayed held until
its TTL expired.
- `runtime-execution.ts`: for `runner_settlement_incomplete` on a local
workspace (no workspace sync and no remote workspace authority),
Paperclip records `workspace_finalize` as succeeded, finalizes the
accepted result, and returns it to the ordinary completion path.
- New `native-accepted-result-settlement.ts`: rebuilds the adapter
result from the durable accepted result row, its terminal, the run's
native session, and the accepted usage checkpoint. The result carries
the closed `nativePostResultFailure` diagnostic. It contains no provider
text.
- Other post-result categories (for example `io_not_found`) keep their
workspace-failure handling. They now also reach finalization at once,
instead of after the lease TTL.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: describes the settlement.

## Verification

- Red, then green: `settles an accepted local result when runner close
cannot prove suspension` and `keeps workspace failure handling for other
accepted-result failures on a local workspace` in
`server/src/services/heartbeat/runtime-execution.test.ts`. Both failed
on the base revision with the executor lease still held. Both pass with
this change.
- Safety case `settles an accepted local result ...
(workspace-check-failed)`: when the `workspace_finalize` check fails,
the run keeps the existing failure path. Case `terminal-unreadable`:
when the accepted result cannot be rebuilt, only a failed
`workspace_finalize` record is written.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
src/services/heartbeat/runtime-execution.test.ts`: all pass (some cases
time out at 30 s only under host load above 40; they pass on a narrow
rerun). This includes the 14 existing post-result diagnostic and
authority cases (expired, replaced owner, generation, attempt, boot,
pid, process start, stopped, lock busy, and others).
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`: pass.
- Live cell
`local-session-integrity.runner-acpx-claude.local.structured-question-restart-resume`
(real ACPX Claude, local runner): 3 runs at host load average about 40.
Runs 1 and 2 passed. Run 3 hit the fault naturally: the first run
emitted `native.post_result_failure` (`runner_settlement_incomplete`)
and now ended `run succeeded` (before this change it ended
`failed/adapter_failed`). The cell then failed later, in the resume run
after the answer: `runner_state_identity_mismatch:
prior_owner_terminal_state_indeterminate;
retirement_refused=target_not_sandbox_runner`. That is a separate
follow-up (see Risks).

## Risks

- A changed lease handoff. The executor releases the lease only after
the rejected failure write proves an accepted result under the exact
owner, attempt, controller generation, controller identity, and an
unexpired lease. A stale or replaced owner does not release anything. A
failed release is bounded and best effort. The old behavior then
applies.
- The run now completes as `succeeded` while the local Runner checkpoint
is not proven suspended. The next run on the same session then meets the
existing fence: the continuity-break retirement
(`retireFinishedPerTurnRunnerdOwner`) accepts only sandbox Runners, so a
local Runner is refused with `target_not_sandbox_runner` and its state
root is quarantined. This PR does not change that fence. Extending the
retirement to local Runners needs its own proof that the local Runner
process stopped, and is a follow-up.
- Settlement happens only when the accepted result and its terminal are
rebuilt first, and the `workspace_finalize` record then succeeds. A
failed branch or plugin workspace check keeps the failure path.
- Synced and remote workspaces are not changed. They keep their
copy-back retry path.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, used through Claude
Code with tool use (shell, file edits, test runs). Extended reasoning
was on.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 beaa9a622d fix(native): re-bootstrap a runner killed before session.open (#19524)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs start a local `paperclip-runnerd` process. The control
plane keeps a durable state root for each session.
> - When the control plane restarts, restart recovery classifies each
live native run. A run whose runner died before any provider identity
existed gets the `bootstrap_incomplete` disposition. Recovery then
quarantines the old state root and starts the bootstrap again.
> - The executor accepts that disposition only when the durable state
root proves that no provider work started. The old proof required
`connectionCount === 0` and every command `pending`.
> - A restart chaos wave killed the server about 2 s after runnerd
started. The runner had connected and completed `run.prepare`, but
`session.open` was still pending. No event was committed, so no provider
session or turn existed.
> - The proof rejected that root. The run failed with
`runner_state_identity_mismatch: bootstrap_not_proven_incomplete`, and
the task stopped with `native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`.
Nothing continued automatically.
> - This pull request widens the proof to the exact window where
provider work cannot have started, and keeps every other shape
fail-closed.
> - The benefit is that a restart during native runner bootstrap
continues automatically for every native provider.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A control plane restart that lands after the native runner connected and
acknowledged `run.prepare`, but before `session.open` completed, fails
the run with `adapter_failed` and `runner_state_identity_mismatch:
bootstrap_not_proven_incomplete`. Startup recovery chose
`bootstrap_incomplete` (controller generations 2 and 3), but the
executor proof in `migrateRunnerdStateRootForExecution` refused it. The
durable control-plane state had `connectionCount: 1`, `run.prepare`
completed, `session.open` pending, no committed events, and
`ackedSourceSeq: 0`. The runner journal had `nextSourceSeq: 1`, an empty
outbox, and the provider state was `prepared` with no provider session
ID.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native task (seen with OpenCode on a local runner; the window
applies to every native provider).
2. Kill the control plane about 2 s after runnerd starts, after
`run.prepare` completes and before `session.open` completes.
3. Let the control plane restart.

**Expected behavior**
Recovery quarantines the state root and starts the bootstrap again. The
task continues without a user action.

**Actual behavior**
The run fails and the task is blocked with
`native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`.

## What Changed

- `runnerdStateIsIncompleteBootstrap` (native-session-executor.ts) now
also accepts a connected root when all of these are true: no committed
event, `ackedSourceSeq === 0`, only `run.prepare` and `session.open`
commands, `session.open` not completed, `run.prepare` pending or
completed, no warm transition or staged attachment, and the bootstrap
was not adopted.
- When `runner/runner-state.json` exists, the runner journal must agree:
empty outbox, `nextSourceSeq === 1`, `ackedSourceSeq === 0`, and no
completed `session.open` or other processed command. An unreadable
runner journal stays fail-closed. This covers events that the runner
emitted but the controller never committed.
- The remote "claim an untouched session" path keeps the old
never-connected proof (`runnerdStateIsUnconnectedBootstrap`), so its
behavior does not change.
- Tests: a red test with the production state shape (connected,
`run.prepare` completed, `session.open` pending), plus fail-closed
counter-tests for a completed `session.open`, committed or acknowledged
events, a turn command, a failed `run.prepare`, an adopted bootstrap, a
warm transition, an uncommitted runner event, a runner-completed
`session.open`, a runner-processed turn, and a torn runner journal.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: `pnpm exec vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts -t "native
incomplete-bootstrap evidence"` failed on "allows a fresh bootstrap
after connect and run.prepare when session.open never completed"
(`expected false to be true`). Green after the fix: 13/13.
- The proof run against the kept durable state root from the failing
wave (read only) returns `true` after the fix.
- Related suites: `native-session-executor.test.ts` and
`native-restart-recovery.test.ts` filtered to
`bootstrap|restart|remote|unstarted|untouched`: 301 passed.
- `tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json` passes.
- Live restart chaos proof: see the comment on this PR.

## Risks

- The proof now accepts a root where the runner received `session.open`
but did not complete it. The runner can have started a provider process
or created an empty provider session in that window. Recovery only
proceeds when restart classification already proved that the runner
process and its group are dead and no known provider process is alive.
No provider turn can exist, because the controller never issued a turn
command. The worst case is an orphaned empty provider session, not
repeated work.
- Every state with committed or acknowledged events, a completed
`session.open`, a turn, a warm transition, an adopted bootstrap, or an
unreadable runner journal still fails closed.
- Out of scope: when the proof fails legitimately, the task offers the
existing execution-blocker Retry. In the failing wave the issue
interruption also showed a budget wait (`userAction: budget`). That is
the RC-06 accounting issue and belongs to a separate fix.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 e680fa6814 fix(native): retry startup interrupted by a closed runtime API listener (#19462)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs prepare a remote workspace, then start a runner and a
provider session
> - A graceful server shutdown closes the HTTP listener before it drains
runs
> - A run that is still preparing then asks for the local runtime API
origin, and the lookup fails with
`local_runtime_api_listener_unavailable`
> - Recovery did not know this code. It treated the failure as an
ambiguous provider state and blocked the task behind a board-owned
action, although no runner or provider process existed
> - This pull request classifies the closed listener as a definite
pre-session failure
> - The benefit is that a deploy no longer strands a preparing task. The
same run gets a bounded bootstrap retry that the next server process
claims

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**
A native Codex task on a remote sandbox spent about ten minutes in
workspace preparation. A deploy started a graceful shutdown during that
time. When preparation finished, the executor called
`resolveLocalRuntimeApiUrl()` to build the tool authority. The listener
was already closed, so it threw
`local_runtime_api_listener_unavailable`. No runner backend or provider
session had started. The failure classifier returned the generic
`native_session_interrupted` code. `nativeProviderRecoveryEvidence` then
returned `ambiguous_state`. The run became a terminal failure, the task
became blocked, and the recovery action told the board to resolve an
ambiguous session and to not open a replacement session. The same
signature occurred on three other runs during an earlier deploy.

**Expected behavior**
A failure that occurs before any runner or provider process exists is
safe to retry on the same run. The task must stay in progress with a
scheduled, bounded bootstrap retry. If a provider event or checkpoint
exists, recovery must stay operator-owned.

**Steps to reproduce**
Start a native run. Close the server's HTTP listener before the executor
creates the runner backend. Observe a `terminal_failure` with
`recoveryMode: "ambiguous_state"` and a blocked task. The new
integration test reproduces this with the real
`resolveLocalRuntimeApiUrl()` and a real Postgres database.

**Environment**
Server native runtime, remote sandbox target, `codex_app_server` driver.
Related recovery work: #19249, #19304, #19305.

## What Changed

- `nativeSessionFailureSourceCode` returns a new
`local_runtime_api_listener_unavailable` source code for this error.
- `nativeProviderRecoveryEvidence` treats that code as definitely
pre-session. The existing guard stays: the run must have no checkpoint
and no durable provider event.
- The chat failed-run retry accepts the code in its list of ordinary
pre-session failures, so an exhausted startup retry can still be retried
from chat.
- New integration tests in `native-startup-retry.integration.test.ts`
cover the retry path and the operator-owned path when a provider event
exists.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: the new test failed with `phase:
"terminal_failure"`, `recoveryMode: "ambiguous_state"`, `recoverable:
false` and a board-owned recovery. This matches the failed run on the
deployed instance.
- Green after the fix: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-startup-retry.integration.test.ts`
passes 26 of 26 tests. The retry test asserts `retryable_failure`,
`bootstrap_retry`, backoff timing, an agent-owned `resume_native_run`
wake, and a claim through `claimNativeSessionResumptions`.
- Safety case: when a durable `turn.started` event exists, the same
error stays `terminal_failure` with `ambiguous_state` and a blocked
task.
- `npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts -t
"listener|classif|pre-session"` passes.
- Not run: a live deploy that interrupts a preparing sandbox run. The
test uses the real listener lookup and the real recovery tables, but not
a real sandbox.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change only affects runs that fail with this exact error
and have no checkpoint and no provider event.
- The retry uses the existing bootstrap budget of three attempts with
backoff. Repeated failures still stop and hand the task to the board.
- The GitHub callback bridge that started in the sandbox before the
failure is a per-attempt helper. The existing cleanup path releases it.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 6ca7b151f7 feat: compact an agent's context from the task Properties panel (#19378)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A task's Properties panel shows the assignee agent's context window
(paperclipai/paperclip#19273)
> - The board can see that the context is nearly full, but it cannot act
on it
> - A full context makes the agent compact at an unplanned time, often
in the middle of work
> - This pull request adds "Compact now" to the Context hover card
> - The benefit is that the board can compact the agent's context
between runs, at a time it chooses

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs paperclipai/paperclip#19273

**Problem**
The Context row shows how full the agent's context window is. The board
cannot ask the agent to compact it.

**Proposed solution**
A "Compact now" button in the Context hover card. It runs the harness's
own compaction: Codex `thread/compact/start`, and Claude's `/compact`
command through ACP.

**Alternatives considered**
A separate PRP `session.compact` command. Both harnesses run compaction
as a turn, so a compaction turn keeps the existing durable turn binding,
interruption, and recovery. A separate command needs a second turn
lifecycle.

## What Changed

- UI: the Context hover card shows Compact now with three states:
available, Compacting…, and unavailable with a reason (agent mid-run,
harness unsupported, task closed). The Storybook story shows each state.
- Server: `POST /api/issues/:id/context/compact` (board only,
`decideIssueAccess` `issue:mutate`, activity log
`issue.context_compaction_requested`). It queues a short run marked by
`contextSnapshot.contextCompactionRequestId`. `GET
/issues/:id/context-usage` returns the `compaction` state.
- Server: a compaction run does no task work. The native status arbiter
preserves the task status. The lifecycle skips handoff, liveness
continuation, review-path disposition and the issue comment, as it does
for goal-control runs.
- Runner TS: `startTurn({ compact: true })`. The Codex harness session
sends `thread/compact/start`. The runnerd transport maps it to PRP
`turn.start` with `compact: true` (Codex) or `text: "/compact"`
(Claude/ACPX). The native runtime option `sessionCompaction` requires a
resumed session and settles with a synthesized yielded result.
- Runner Rust: `turn.start` accepts `compact: true` for Codex.
`CodexProvider::start_compaction_turn` sends `thread/compact/start` and
binds the turn from the `turn/started` that follows the empty response.
- Fix (from #19273): Codex emitted `context.compacted` on both the start
and the end of one compaction item. It now emits it once, and the count
is distinct by `compactionId`.
- Fix (from #19273): the conversation event view dropped
`context.compacted`, so a finished run never showed the divider. The
view now keeps compactions, plus context readings for runs that
compacted. A finished run's compactions show as thread dividers.
- Fix: the Codex harness stamps before/after sizes on the compaction
event. Codex reports the compacted size before the compaction item ends,
so the old neighbour-based guess showed the wrong size.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `pnpm check:token-gates`, `node
scripts/storybook-catalog.mjs`: pass.
- New tests: `server/src/__tests__/context-compaction.test.ts`,
`status-arbiter.test.ts`, `issue-context-usage.test.ts` (duplicate
compaction counts once), `ui/.../context-usage-row.test.tsx`,
`native-session-runtime.test.ts` (context compaction), Codex driver and
runnerd transport tests, Rust
`codex_compaction_turn_binds_the_turn_reported_after_its_empty_response`.
Rust `codex_provider` suite: 115 passed.
- `pnpm test:run` locally: one failure in
`chat-channels.integration.test.ts`. It reads
`.claude/skills/slack/SKILL.md` from the main checkout, which is not
present in this worktree. It is not related to this change.
- Live, local worktree instance, Codex agent on the Paperclip runner:
clicked Compact now. The run succeeded. Context went from 35k to 9.4k
tokens, and later 9.4k to 9.2k. The task stayed In Review. The thread
shows "Context compacted · 9.4k → 9.2k tokens" and the meter dropped.
- Live Claude proof: pending. The local Claude agent needs an Anthropic
API key. claude-agent-acp handles `/compact` as an echo-less turn, and
the runner already maps its "Compacting completed." notice to
`context.compacted`.

## Risks

- A compaction run resumes the agent's session. If the session cannot
resume, the run fails with `native_context_compaction_unavailable` and
the task is unchanged.
- Compact now is not available while the agent runs on the task, because
compaction interrupts the active turn.
- The conversation view now returns context readings for runs that
compacted. Runs that never compacted return the same events as before.
- An old runner binary ignores `compact` and rejects the `turn.start`
because it has no text. It does not start an ordinary turn.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 36643d9378 fix(native): retire finished owners whose continued turn rotated authority (#19373)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The native runner runs per-turn agent sessions in managed sandboxes.
A controller keeps a durable session root for each session.
> - When a per-turn owner finishes without a saved runner checkpoint,
the next turn retires that owner. Retirement first checks that the
session root holds only known entries.
> - The runner transport writes two entries that the check does not
know: `authority-epochs/` and `runtime-context.json`. A continued turn
writes `authority-epochs/` when it rotates authority from the turn
before it.
> - So the third turn of an ephemeral-lease task cannot retire the
second turn's owner. The run fails with
`native_continuation_requires_reconciliation` and the task waits for a
user message.
> - This pull request classifies every session-root entry in one
contract module, and adds a test that scans the writers so the list
cannot drift again.
> - The benefit is that follow-up turns continue without manual help,
and any future refusal names the unexpected entry.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18846, Refs #19061, Refs #19355

**What happened?**
On staging, the third turn of every task for one agent (gpt-5.6-sol,
native runner, ephemeral sandbox lease) failed. The error was
`runner_state_identity_mismatch:
prior_owner_terminal_state_indeterminate;
retirement_refused=unexpected_root_entry`. The first two turns
succeeded. The task then went to `blocked` with "Saved work recovered.
Send a message to continue."

**Expected behavior**
The third turn retires the finished second-turn owner and continues the
conversation.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Assign a task to a native agent that uses an ephemeral sandbox lease.
2. Let the first turn finish. Reopen the task with a comment so a second
turn runs and finishes.
3. Reopen the task again. The third turn fails with the error above.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Staging near 9a79384958; reproduced locally on master 7c0922a7b6.

## What Changed

- Add
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-session-root-entries.ts`. It
is the single contract for top-level session-root entries:
- Continuity state (moves with a continuity break): the existing
entries, plus `authority-epochs` and `launch-preparation.json`.
- Launch entries (stay in place, carry no authority):
`runtime-context.json`, `diagnostics`.
- Held entries (retirement still refuses): `plugin-runner-state.json`,
`cleanup-activation.json`, `cursor-cloud`.
- `readSettledRunnerdProjection` uses this contract. The refusal now
names the entries. A held entry reports as
`held_root_entry(cursor-cloud)`. An unclassified entry reports as
`unexpected_root_entry(unrecognized-state)`. Names are bounded to three,
limited to safe characters, and have identifiers replaced with `<id>`.
- Add `native-session-root-entries.test.ts`. It scans every local root
writer (the executor, the Cursor Cloud runtime, the provider-pack
authority, the controller migration, the runner transport, and the
launch-preparation store). It reads string and template literals,
same-file constants, `posix.join` and `path.join`, and the harness
persistence directory names. It fails when a writer adds an unclassified
entry, or reaches the root through a new unresolved variable.
- Add three cases to `native-recovered-owner-followup.test.ts`: a
finished owner whose root has `runtime-context.json`, an archived
authority epoch, `diagnostics`, and `launch-preparation.json` is
retired, and the epoch and launch preparation move into the archive; an
unknown entry still holds the owner and is named; a held entry is named
as held.

## Verification

- Red before the fix (same string as staging): `retires a finished owner
whose continued turn left runtime context and an archived authority
epoch` received `runner_state_identity_mismatch:
prior_owner_terminal_state_indeterminate;
retirement_refused=unexpected_root_entry`.
- Green after the fix:
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-recovered-owner-followup.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-root-entries.test.ts` (34
passed)
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/native-harness-backup-expiration.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-resume.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts` (1313
passed)
- Live confirmation on staging is pending. After deploy, run a
three-turn task on an ephemeral-lease codex agent. The third turn must
succeed. Its log must show "finished without a saved runner checkpoint;
starting a new runner".

## Risks

- Retirement now accepts two more entries. `authority-epochs` only holds
epochs that the transport archived after it verified a suspended runner,
so it carries no live owner claim. `runtime-context.json` and
`diagnostics` are launch inputs and logs. Unknown entries still refuse
retirement.
- A continuity break now also moves `authority-epochs` and
`launch-preparation.json` into the archive. This is the intended owner:
these files belong to the retired authority lineage. If they stayed, a
later cold rotation could read an archived epoch of the retired lineage.
- I could not read the staging sandbox. The evidence for the exact entry
is from code: the second turn's transport writes `authority-epochs/`
during authority rotation, and every launch writes
`runtime-context.json`. The refusal now names the entry, so any other
entry will be visible in the next failure.

DottaandPaperclip 7c0922a7b6 fix(native): preserve provider backups during slow workspace saves (#19359)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Remote native sessions save provider state so another web server can
continue the same conversation.
> - A provider can suspend while its accepted result is still saving a
large workspace.
> - The run has released its live lease at that point. A new
backup-owner lookup rejects this uncommitted state.
> - This pull request captures the real owner during backend creation
and retains it with the current session authority.
> - The existing database checks still reject a changed boot,
generation, result, or successor before inspection and during
publication.
> - The benefit is that a slow workspace save no longer prevents the
provider backup.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A remote session can fail to save its provider backup with
`native_harness_storage_owner_missing`. The provider has suspended, but
its accepted result is still in `workspace_finalizing`. The close
callback tries to acquire a new owner after the run released its lease.
A later allocation cannot use a backup that was never published.

**Expected behavior**

Save the suspended provider with the authority acquired during
execution. Recheck that authority before provider inspection and before
and after upload. Keep result finalization and provider-work permissions
unchanged.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a remote native session with durable provider storage.
2. Accept its result and release the live lease while its workspace save
remains pending.
3. Close the provider transport. The old owner lookup rejects the save
before provider inspection.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master `bf10bc695abaef6b20e85b287f456b5ce2edb266`.

**Deployment mode**

A web server with object storage and remote managed Runner sessions.

Related: #19225 retains failed-turn ownership through close. #18436
restores an external controller checkpoint before a changed warm process
is replaced. This change fixes late backup-owner acquisition while an
accepted result saves its workspace.

## What Changed

- Capture the provider backup owner when the remote backend still owns
its execution lease.
- Bind that owner to the current session authority. An older close
callback selects the current warm attachment's owner. Revalidate the
captured fence before inspecting or skipping provider state.
- Add a regression for the close callback during workspace finalization.
- Restore encrypted provider files with a captured owner while workspace
finalization remains pending. Reject boot, generation, result, and
successor changes during upload.
- Document the ownership contract.

## Verification

- Observed the callback regression fail on the old code with
`native_harness_storage_owner_missing`. The same test passes with this
fix.
- `cd server && node ../node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run --config
vitest.config.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-harness-backup-storage.integration.test.ts`:
59 passed, using real PostgreSQL and encrypted object write/readback.
- `node scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs`: passed.
- Full workspace typecheck: passed with the complete production fix.
- Native execution: 1,151 passed. Managed warm lifecycle: 9 passed.
These tests require a lost-owner error during shutdown, including before
an incomplete provider checkpoint is skipped. The final change to the
lifecycle test also requires rejection after lease renewal is lost.
- Full local `pnpm build`: passed on the final head.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` stopped in chat shard 6 on five
existing deadline assertions. Earlier chat shards passed; the PR CI chat
shards passed. This is not a full local-suite pass.
- The first CI server shard 4 attempt failed the unchanged legacy
environment-inheritance fixture at its five-second completion wait. The
same failure reproduced locally on the repair head and on an earlier
checkout without this repair. One unchanged CI retry passed. No fixture
assertion or timeout change is shipped.
- Latest-head CI has passed. Greptile reviewed the final head at 5/5
with no open threads. The separate Paperclip Review is paused. This PR
does not claim staging acceptance.

## Risks

The backup owner now lives with its session authority. A wrong authority
selection must fail rather than publish provider state. Database
publication still checks the original company, task, run, boot,
generation, and accepted result before and after upload. Tests change
the owner during upload and verify that the selected backup stays
intact. No schema, data migration, or new provider-work permission
changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 model family, with reasoning and code execution
tools. The host does not expose the exact runtime model ID or
context-window limit.

DottaandPaperclip 789a71bc17 fix(runner): retry quarantined tasks in their saved workspace (#19340)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native sessions retain execution ownership and action history across
turns.
> - Task Retry must prove that old execution has stopped before it
starts another turn.
> - An attempt can inherit its predecessor's identity and fail before it
launches a provider.
> - The cleanup proof searched under that failed attempt and compared
unrelated event sequences.
> - This pull request verifies the retained owner and starts one fresh
authorized turn.
> - Saved results and uncertain action outcomes remain intact.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?** Task Retry accepted repeated clicks but kept the
canonical request deferred with `executionWait.reason: local_cleanup`.
It created no successor, although the retained local worker and provider
had stopped.

**Expected behavior:** After exact cleanup proof, admit one fresh turn.
Preserve the old journal and result. Keep unresolved action outcomes
unknown.

**Steps to reproduce:**
1. Finish a local native turn with retained cleanup state and a saved
result.
2. Let the next attempt inherit its identity and fail with
`native_session_cleanup_quarantined` before any launch.
3. Upgrade across a tool-contract change, then click task Retry.
4. The old code requires the failed attempt's stop receipt and journal
identity. It also requires the current tool fingerprint and equal
sequence numbers across raw and normalized events. Those requirements
cannot match the retained owner.

**Paperclip version or commit:** Reproduced on `31bf6e4482`.
**Deployment mode / installation method:** Authenticated, self-hosted
source checkout.
**Agent adapter(s) involved:** Native `paperclip_runner`, local Codex
app-server. The shared physical-stop proof also covers ACPX.
**Database mode:** Embedded PostgreSQL 18.1.
**Access context:** Board task Retry.
**Node.js version / operating system:** Incident: Node 24.20.0, Linux
ARM64. Local verification: macOS ARM64.
**Relevant logs or output:** Accepted Retry stays in
`deferred_issue_execution`; no new run or provider launch occurs.
**Relevant config:** Per-turn local native execution. The old tool
contract differs from the current contract.
**Additional context:** Related: #19311 prevents the oversized tool
result that can lead to retained cleanup. #18217 covers broader cleanup
isolation and retained-result maintenance. #19134 admits stopped Runner
sources under the current run lease. This patch fixes explicit
continuation admission on current master.

## What Changed

- Resolve the retained journal's owner under the same company, task,
agent, workspace, native session, and runner instance.
- Require terminal ownership, settled controllers, released local
leases, and exact inherited process birth. Refuse any launch evidence on
the failed attempt.
- Accept a current host's verified process absence from its exact launch
receipt when an older server lacks a stop receipt. A later launch
invalidates that observation.
- Validate normalized receipts against their own IDs, sequences, and
digests. Match ordered provider identities to the independent raw
journal.
- Keep tool compatibility at the session reuse boundary. Explicit
continuation always uses a fresh session.
- Bind the stop proof to its exact successor and canonical Retry
receipt. Reuse the proven local workspace through normal preparation.
Refuse changed bindings, closed or remote workspaces, pending
operations, and other live leases. Projectless run-ID placeholders keep
the existing fresh-workspace fallback.
- Retain journals, results, files, and uncertain action outcomes. Add
regression and opt-in live acceptance coverage.
- Make the split-handoff browser test wait for both child-completion
notices and all run settlement before teardown. Assert the final task
set stays unchanged.

## Verification

- Red: canonical Retry on the original code accepts one saved intent but
creates zero successors and records `local_cleanup`.
- Red: distinct raw and normalized event sequences reproduce that wait
after owner resolution alone. After admission was repaired, live
acceptance then exposed the empty-attempt workspace problem. A
PostgreSQL regression also reproduced that wrong workspace selection.
- Green at `6684df5e82`: **479 targeted cases**, including 26 new
PostgreSQL cases for duplicate clicks, exact process and workspace
ownership, controller/lease fences, changed state, and independent
receipt integrity. The complete 1,150-test native executor suite passed
earlier.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass again at final head
`432a52bea8`, including its build stamp. Token gates pass. Master now
contains the unrelated directory-fixture type correction found during
the first typecheck.
- Real authenticated HTTP Retry with Codex `gpt-6.1-sol`, high effort,
and per-turn execution passes again at final head `432a52bea8` (93.3
seconds). It preserves the first file line, appends the second once,
starts a fresh session in the existing workspace, keeps the retained
journal unchanged, commits finalization, and clears task locks.
- The strengthened split-handoff browser scenario passes **three
consecutive local runs**. Its original CI teardown and one same-head
rerun failed when cleanup cancelled an active legacy
completion-notification run and hit a PostgreSQL row-lock timeout. The
scenario now waits for the complete handoff before cleanup. [Initial
failure](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42106466518/job/127523693634),
[same-head
rerun](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42106466518/job/127531698321).
These failures remain part of the verification record.
- The local full `pnpm test:run` passed all six chat integration shards.
Its obsolete pre-rebase attempt was stopped during the general server
phase; no complete local-suite pass is claimed. Full CI, including both
required gates, passed at `6684df5e82`. At final head `432a52bea8`, all
initial CI groups passed except the unchanged status-card deadline test,
whose post-wakeup clock assertion missed its bound by 10 ms. That exact
case passed three unchanged local repetitions (16.8/27.0/18.3 seconds);
the single isolated shard rerun passed all **2,218 tests** (123 files),
with no source changes. [Initial timing
failure](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42114473652/job/127550722187).
- Greptile reviewed `6684df5e82` at **5/5**, with no actionable
findings. A second reviewer identified the supported projectless
placeholder case. A new real PostgreSQL regression reproduced its
workspace-binding failure before the one-line fallback correction; all
**45 focused cases** now pass, including default environment selection
and changed binding/cwd refusal. Greptile reviewed final head
`432a52bea8` at **5/5**, with no blocking findings. The second
reviewer’s thread is resolved.
- The patched Linux build verified the actual retained worker/provider
ownership and process absence in a transaction that was rolled back. No
retained state was retired or provider started during that
pre-deployment check.

## Risks

- This changes an execution admission proof. Incorrect ownership could
permit a second executor. The proof retains process, controller, lease,
scope, journal, and receipt fences, and duplicate admission is tested
through the real queue.
- Missing or conflicting evidence remains deferred. Windows, remote
execution, automatic replacement, and session reuse retain their
existing policies.
- No database migration or UI change. The original affected task still
needs deployment of the fix before recovery can be claimed.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, SSH diagnostics, and live provider testing. This session does
not expose the exact backend model build or context-window size. The
live test agent uses OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` at high effort.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 2506bcdaf4 Admit exact stopped Runner sources under the current run lease (#19134)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native execution keeps provider state and a durable controller
journal.
> - A completed process can stop before the next run attaches.
> - The current run must own recovery of that exact source.
> - An old controller must lose permission to change the consumed source
journal.
> - This pull request adds explicit source admission and protected task
dispatch.
> - The benefit is a narrow recovery boundary that preserves the
original successful result.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Native prerequisites #19132 and #19153 are merged into master. This PR
targets master and updates the TypeScript Runner driver contract
alongside Core and SDK admission. This change adds the SDK and Core
admission boundary. Executor selection and fresh source preparation are
a separate change. Related #17916 supplies the workspace export holds
preserved here.

## What Changed

- Plugins advertise `codexSourceRecoveryVersion: 1` for Codex App Server
and `acpxSourceRecoveryVersion: 1` for ACPX. Hosts can qualify either,
both, or neither. Core selects the matching field, because a
stopped-source check for one provider cannot establish the other
provider’s recovery guarantees. ACPX orchestration is tracked separately
in #19196. Use the existing exact source identity and `resumeFrom` under
the authenticated current run. No public recovery mode is added. Require
the claimed source, current account and prepared launch at protected
dispatch.
- Keep the first source binding pinned on the consumer lease, including
after uncertain dispatch. A newly acquired coordinator can refresh only
the same source.
- Claim one stopped successful source under the current run's acquired
native lease. Store the token-free consumer reference in existing lease
metadata. Preserve the source status and result.
- Check the exact six source identity fields, encrypted journal header,
company, task, agent, environment, driver, workspace, account selection,
and current coordinator generation. Keep workspace export and legacy
settlement holds.
- Serialize claims and checkpoint writers in the same coordinator lock
order. Reject stale source writes after consumption. Check the current
consumer before recovered source writes.
- Check source admission before and after protected worker dispatch.
Keep the request and lease owned by the current run while the native
identity remains the source.
- Allow the same owner to prepare B after a fresh source submission,
using the exact consumed-source proof instead of a generic warm-reuse
flag. Recheck that proof after dispatch.
- Preserve ordinary cached adoption and repeated preparation after
launch. The current authenticated owner can differ from the adopted PRP
identity without requesting a new source launch. Keep ordinary suspended
recovery and live task attachment checks. Extract the shared source
resolver to avoid a module cycle, and make ordinary selection honor the
same durable source consumer.

## Verification

- Current head `cac9cf188a` includes merged #19300 and the symmetric
capabilities introduced in `b7e25a64b4`. The task-owner and warm-rebind
fixtures now identify their physical task. All 29 SDK schema cases, 95
Core ownership and source-admission cases, 25 native Codex and ACPX
recovery cases, and the binary metadata check passed on this head. The
SDK and Runner builds and server typecheck passed. Both native providers
reject the other provider’s capability. GitHub CI is green and [standard
Greptile scored this commit
5/5](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19134#issuecomment-6645574114)
with no open threads.

- Previous head `bda49271a4ae362a15baf3fe6d6d297e25fd2000` is directly
based on master after #19132 and #19153 landed. [GitHub workflow
42072192023](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42072192023)
passed on its first attempt. All check runs completed successfully or as
intentional workflow skips; Snyk passed. Standard Greptile scored this
exact head 5/5. That review had no unresolved findings.
- Runner and SDK TypeScript builds and server typecheck passed. The
focused SDK, task-owner, task-runtime, PostgreSQL source and authority
suites passed all 161 cases. The production transport-factory getter
regression and 14 native-lane selection checks also passed.
- The Linux native lane executed the new ordinary warm A→B process case.
It kept one Runner/provider process and completed two turns on the same
thread. The eager-getter mutation fails with
`native_runner_source_attachment_pending`; preserving the live getter
passes. The production factory test changes the current owner after
transport creation and checks that same options object.
- PostgreSQL cases cover both concurrent source-writer/claim orders,
exact source submission under the current caller, source-switch denial
after uncertain dispatch, same-source coordinator refresh, stale
same-boot generation, corrupted journal headers, competing consumers,
account changes and export holds.
- The protected dispatch sequence submits A, prepares B and retries B
preparation. It rejects undispatched sources, changed accounts and
foreign target bindings. Source status and accepted result remain
unchanged.
- Ordinary adopted A preparation under current B, repeated ordinary
preparation after launch and ordinary suspended continuation retain
their existing path. Absent or false claims preserve ordinary identity
denial; malformed claims fail closed.
- Earlier development attempts exposed ordinary preparation regressions
and the live-getter omission; the final regressions cover those fixes.
The first embedded PostgreSQL attempt needed missing library aliases
repaired in ignored dependencies. Those attempts are not passing
evidence.
- Historical, superseded CI heads had unchanged UI fake-timer and
Playwright health-response-lifetime failures. Their isolated cases and
scoped retries passed. The response-lifetime cause remains unproven. No
UI/test timeout was changed. The final rebased-head workflow above
passed without a retry.
- Whitespace and added-line secret/PII scans passed. Full workspace
checks ran on GitHub. No live vendor probe or deployment was performed.

## Risks

- Any driver that used the earlier Codex TypeScript option must use
`codexSourceRecoveryVersion`. The new plugin description rejects the
generic spelling. The Launcher’s existing Codex-specific HTTP header can
map to this property when the plugin adopts the new SDK. The change
requires no journal migration or ROM change.

- This is an inactive admission foundation. Executor orchestration is
separate in #19157. Native restore integrity and provider
stopped-source/account validation must be present before executor
activation. The native prerequisite uses ordinary recovery followed by
attachment. The composed executor proofs are in #19157.
- The source claim is durable. A later controller must recover the same
consumer or keep the hold. It cannot select another source after an
ambiguous launch.
- Admission adds bounded database checks around protected startup calls.
Busy issue locks fail closed; other lock waits have a one-second bound.
- No migration, snapshot format, proactive receipt, recurring worker, or
deployment is included. Full workspace checks and platform coverage run
in CI. These tests do not prove vendor history durability or a hosted
rollout.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol (`gpt-6.1-sol`), high reasoning, through Codex with
repository tools and code execution. The runtime does not expose a
context-window size.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 22281d4b3a feat(task-chat): approve harness-proposed plans (Codex plan mode, Claude ExitPlanMode) (#19291)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents run through the native runner. Codex and Claude Code each
have their own plan mode, and each produces a proposed-plan document.
> - Paperclip already has a planning work mode, an issue `plan`
document, and a `request_confirmation` approval gate for plans.
> - These parts were not connected. The Codex proposed-plan item was
transcript text only. The server path never put Codex into plan mode.
Claude was never put into plan mode, and its ExitPlanMode plan was
dropped. A planning run could close its task as done with no approval.
> - This pull request turns a harness's own proposed plan into the
issue's Plan document and the existing approval gate, for Codex and
Claude.
> - The benefit is that users approve or send back the agent's real plan
from the task chat. Approve resumes the agent. Request changes sends the
reason back to the agent.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19252

**Subsystem affected**
Native runner provider events (Codex and ACPX Claude), the runner Codex
provider (Rust), server native plan synchronization, and the task chat
UI.

**Problem or motivation**
Codex and Claude both produce a proposed-plan document in their native
plan mode. Paperclip did not use it. In live tests on the server path, a
Codex planning run was not in Codex plan mode, saved its own
`implementation-plan` document, and marked the task done without
approval. Claude planning runs were not in Claude plan mode, and the
ExitPlanMode plan text never reached Paperclip.

**Proposed solution**
Add a canonical `plan.proposed` event for a harness's proposed plan. Put
Codex and Claude into their native plan mode for planning runs. Save a
completed proposal as the issue `plan` document with the existing
`request_confirmation` gate. Agents can also propose a plan on a
standard task; the work mode stays standard.

**Alternatives considered**
Reuse `plan.updated`. Its schema is the within-turn checklist and is not
the durable Plan document, so a separate event keeps the two clear.
Stronger prompt text without native plan mode. Live tests showed that
the model kept its own document workflow.

**Roadmap alignment**
This reuses the issue plan document, planning work mode and approval
gate that already exist. It adds one canonical provider event.

## What Changed

- `packages/paperclip-runner/protocol/schemas/*`: add the
`plan.proposed` event (`paperclip.plan.proposed.v1`: `proposalId`,
`status`, `markdown` up to 60k characters, `source`). Regenerate the
schema bundle, validators and manifest.
- `packages/paperclip-runner/src/provider-events.ts`: map the Codex
`plan` item and a `<proposed_plan>` block in a completed Codex message
to `plan.proposed`. Add `claudePlanProposalEvent`.
-
`packages/paperclip-runner/runner/crates/runner-core/src/codex_provider.rs`:
send Codex's native `collaborationMode: plan` on `turn/start` for a
read-only (planning) Codex run. Before this change the server path never
sent it.
- `runner-core/src/acpx_event_payload.rs`: admit `plan.proposed` as ACPX
rich display activity.
- `drivers/acpx/codex-runtime-adapter.ts`: set Claude Code to native
plan mode for a read-only run. Capture Claude's ExitPlanMode plan from
its permission request, record it, and decline the native "Ready to
code?" prompt.
- `drivers/acpx/codex-acpx-driver.ts`, `cli/acpx-runtime-sidecar.ts`:
emit the captured proposal as a rich event. Complete that turn instead
of reporting it as cancelled.
- `backends/codex-native-backend.ts`: per-harness plan-mode
instructions, and a short opt-in hint for Claude on standard tasks.
- `server/src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.ts`:
synchronize a completed `plan.proposed` into the `plan` document and a
`request_confirmation` in planning and standard mode. Do not change the
issue status during the run (that revoked the run's lease). The run
finalizer turns the pending confirmation into the review wait.
- `server/src/services/heartbeat-run-summary.ts`: keep a
`<proposed_plan>` block out of the posted reply.
- UI: new `plan_proposal` provider family. The task chat shows a live
"Writing plan" card while a proposal streams and a one-line record when
it completes. Resolved plan reviews keep a receipt ("Approved Plan v1",
"Requested changes to Plan v1: reason"). Plan previews skip section
headings.
- Storybook: `Tasks and conversations/.../Task chat/Proposed plan
approval` shows the journey.
- `doc/SPEC-implementation.md`: describe harness-proposed plan approval.

## Verification

- `cargo test -p paperclip-runner-core --lib` (new:
`read_only_codex_turns_use_native_plan_collaboration_mode`)
- `cd packages/paperclip-runner && npx vitest run
src/provider-events.test.ts
src/drivers/acpx/codex-runtime-adapter.test.ts`
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/native-plan-proposal-sync.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-run-summary.test.ts`
- `cd ui && npx vitest run
src/components/transcript/native-run-events.test.ts
src/components/task-chat`
- Live test on a local worktree instance with real harnesses:
- Codex (`gpt-5.6-sol`), planning task: Codex asked one question, then
produced a native plan item. The task showed Plan v1 with Approve plan /
Request changes and moved to in review. Approve changed the work mode to
standard. Codex then implemented the plan and its tests passed.
- Codex, Request changes with a reason: Codex woke in planning mode and
produced Plan v2 that includes the change.
- Claude (`claude-opus-5-5`), planning task: Claude was in plan mode.
ExitPlanMode became Plan v1 and the turn completed. Approve resumed
Claude in standard mode, and Claude implemented the plan.
- Claude, standard task that asks for a plan first: Claude stopped
before code changes and asked for plan approval. The work mode stayed
standard.
- Storybook: open `Proposed plan approval` and check each stage.

## Risks

- Codex planning runs now really use Codex plan mode on the server path.
Codex can ask a clarifying question before it proposes. This matches
Codex plan mode.
- Claude planning runs now use Claude plan mode. A declined ExitPlanMode
ends the Claude turn; the runner reports it as completed. Claude's tool
row for that request records a rejection from Claude's side.
- Codex does not stream the proposed plan on the server path yet, so the
live card shows a placeholder until the plan completes.
- A `<proposed_plan>` block in any completed Codex message on a standard
task now asks for approval. This is the documented opt-in path.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 dd889e6a0b feat: show the assignee's provider usage limit in task properties (#19270)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents run on the native Runner through the Codex app-server and the
Claude ACP harness
> - Both harnesses report the provider account's rate-limit windows:
Codex sends `account/rateLimits/updated`, and Claude sends its SDK
`rate_limit_event` as `usage_update._meta["_claude/rateLimit"]`
> - Paperclip dropped both signals, so an operator could not see that an
agent was near or past its provider limit
> - This pull request normalizes both signals into one account-scoped
snapshot, keeps the latest snapshot per agent, and shows it as one
"Usage limit" line in the task properties pane
> - The benefit is that an operator sees "5h 78% · resets 15:40" (amber
above 80%, "Limited until …" when the provider refuses work, "using
credits" when a used-up window falls back to credits) next to the
assignee, and can click it for every window

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19246
Refs #19259

**Is your feature request related to a problem?**
Codex and Claude report provider rate-limit windows during a run.
Paperclip dropped them: the Codex notification fell through the Rust
normalizer with no branch, and ACPX dropped Claude's `_meta`. Operators
could not see how close an agent was to its provider limit.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
Store the latest reported windows per agent and show one compact line in
the task properties pane, with a popover that lists every window.

**Describe alternatives you've considered**
A full gauge in the agent list and the run header. A design review chose
one property line with a details popover instead.

## What Changed

- Runner (Rust, the runnerd path): new `provider_rate_limits.rs`. Codex
`account/rateLimits/updated` becomes a `provider.notice.recorded` event
(category `provider.rate_limits`, scope `account`). `CodexProviderState`
merges sparse updates and emits a notice only when the windows change.
ACPX `usage_update` with a sanitized `rateLimit` field also emits the
notice.
- Runner (sidecar): `acpx-runtime-sidecar.ts` forwards only `status`,
`rateLimitType`, `utilization` and `resetsAt` from
`_meta["_claude/rateLimit"]`. This needs the ACPX `_meta` passthrough
from #19259. Until that merges, Claude emits nothing.
- Runner (TypeScript in-process drivers): the same mapping in
`codex-session-notifications.ts` and `codex-acpx-driver.ts` through
`drivers/provider-rate-limits.ts`.
- Shared: `provider-rate-limits.ts` holds the snapshot type, the parser,
the merge, and `summarizeProviderRateLimits` (fullest current window,
expiry by reset time, limited versus using credits).
- Server: `agent-provider-rate-limits.ts` merges each notice into
`agent_runtime_state.state_json.providerRateLimits`, scoped by company
and agent. A session reset keeps the snapshot. No migration.
- UI: `AgentRateLimitPropertyValue` adds a "Usage limit" row under the
assignee in `IssueProperties`. Transcripts treat the notice as run-log
only. A run status event refreshes the assignee's runtime state.
- Storybook: `Tasks and conversations/Task creation and lifecycle/Usage
limit property`.
- Docs: `doc/run-log-events.md` describes the notice and its storage.

## Verification

- `cd packages/paperclip-runner/runner && cargo test -p
paperclip-runner-core --lib rate_limit` and `--test
acpx_provider_events`: sparse Codex merge, dedupe, reached window,
checkpoint round trip, Claude utilization and rejection, notice shape.
- `cd packages/paperclip-runner && npx vitest run
src/drivers/provider-rate-limits.test.ts src/drivers/codex`
- `cd packages/shared && npx vitest run
src/provider-rate-limits.test.ts`: summary, expiry, limited, using
credits, parse and merge.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-provider-rate-limits.test.ts`: create and merge,
out-of-order snapshot, company isolation, unrelated notices, session
reset keeps the snapshot.
- `cd ui && npx vitest run src/components/transcript
src/components/issue-properties src/context/LiveUpdatesProvider`
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm check:token-gates` pass.
- Live test on a local worktree instance: a native Codex agent on a
ChatGPT subscription login ran a real task. The runner recorded one
`provider.rate_limits` notice. The server stored it. The task properties
pane showed "7d 100% · using credits" (this account's weekly window was
used up and had credits, and the run succeeded). The transcript showed
no extra row.
- Not verified live: Claude. The local Claude CLI was not signed in, and
the Claude path also needs #19259. The Rust and sidecar paths have
tests.
- Not run locally: the full `pnpm test:run` and `pnpm build`. CI runs
them.

## Risks

- Low risk. The snapshot is display data. It does not hold or start
work. The existing provider-limit wait (#19246) still reads typed run
failures.
- Codex can send a rate-limit update often. The runner emits a notice
only when the windows change, so run-log growth stays small.
- With API-key auth, the harnesses report no windows, so no row appears.
This is the intended result.
- `CodexProviderState` gains two optional serde fields with defaults, so
older checkpoints still load.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 31bf6e4482 Pin plugin Runner cleanup to its physical task (#19300)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Plugin Runner owners manage a physical task through an environment
lease.
> - The existing replacement path can assign a new physical task to that
same lease.
> - A delayed old owner can then stop the replacement or mark it
stopped.
> - Cleanup must keep the original physical task identity across RPC and
database writes.
> - This pull request pins that identity and keeps cleanup available to
the new owner.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19134 and #19157. This fix is based on master and does not enable
repeated stopped-source recovery. A search found no duplicate fix.

**What happened?**

The maintained `createOwnedSandbox` replacement path changes
`providerLeaseId` on one lease. An old task owner uses that mutable
lease for a later Stop. A stopped-state response already in flight can
also update the new task's flags.

**Expected behavior**

The old owner must address its original task. Its late cleanup writes
must not alter the replacement. The replacement's own owner must still
stop and complete it.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a plugin task owner for a stopped task.
2. Replace that task through the existing describe/startup path on the
same lease.
3. Resume an old checkpoint or a held old status response.
4. Observe a Stop for the replacement or an incorrect stopped flag
before this fix.

## What Changed

- Require each task owner to keep the physical ID returned by its
description. Reject a rebind to a different task.
- Carry the ID through the existing internal task context after startup
ends. Reject a changed physical task before RPC dispatch.
- Match the physical task in stopped-state, completion and
credential-handoff writes.
- Hold the exact lease row through the retained-session database update
and local checkpoint save.
- Cover the maintained replacement path with real PostgreSQL tests.
Preserve positive cleanup for the replacement owner. Document this
boundary.

## Verification

- Both replacement regressions failed on unmodified master `10a7d039c8`:
delayed old-owner Stop targeted the replacement, and a held old status
response marked it stopped.
- Six focused files passed 160 tests: task authority, task runtime, warm
tasks, execution target, credential writeback and task owner.
- Four selected executor factory cases passed. They cover task-only
providers and the physical task binding after the startup context ends.
- Runner TypeScript, plugin SDK and adapter-utils builds passed. Server
TypeScript check passed. Diff and added-line secret scans passed.
- All 15 setup-probe cases passed with the actual Runner and fake
provider binaries. The first local attempt lacked cargo on PATH. A
sandboxed native attempt timed out in seven process cases; the unchanged
run with loopback permission passed all 15. A separate initial DB
integration attempt was denied a loopback listener; its
permission-correct run passed.
- Review found three missed constructors in the existing SDK/Core
lifecycle fixture. They now use the actual describe result. All four
cases in that real PostgreSQL and worker RPC file passed.
- The first GitHub attempt failed in the unchanged GitHub recovery
pagination case in `chat-channels.integration.test.ts`: its zero-request
assertion observed a configuration GET. That exact case passed locally
without code or assertion changes. The one failed-job-only retry passed;
the initial failure log is retained.
- [GitHub workflow
42082587576](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42082587576)
passed on its second attempt. All CI checks completed, and Snyk passed.
Standard Greptile scored exact head `fb914d98b99e` 5/5 with no
unresolved threads. The branch is mergeable and ready for review.

## Risks

The task context change is internal. It adds no plugin wire field,
schema or Runner mode. A stale owner now gets an error and cannot clean
up a replacement. A new owner can still clean up that task. The retained
checkpoint write holds one existing lease row during a bounded local
file write.

Repeated stopped-source incarnation admission, runtime pins and
deployments are outside this change.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol (`gpt-6.1-sol`), high reasoning. Used repository
tools, TypeScript and real PostgreSQL tests.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 34d308a331 fix(native): let a run retire the prior owner it reserved when its session rotates (#19263)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for

owner's instruction directory. Then it starts a new session identity and
must retire the prior owner.
> - Retirement treated the run's own directory reservation as another
executor's busy turn. The run failed at startup with
`native_session_supervisor_busy`.
> - That failure happened after the remote workspace was prepared, so
failure handling retained the sandbox and blocked the task. A board
follow-up comment left the task `blocked` with no agent progress.
> - This pull request lets a run retire the prior owner that it reserved
itself, and keeps the directory that it adopted. Any other reservation
or turn is still busy.

runs once, and the task does not become blocked.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A board follow-up comment with reopen woke an agent on a task that had
just finished a successful run. The new run reused the task's own
sandbox. The saved session could not resume because the effective run
configuration changed, so the run started a new session identity. At
startup (right after the native execution claim) the run failed with
`native_session_supervisor_busy`. The run got the error code
`native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`, the sandbox was retained
for workspace repair, and the task became `blocked`.

The agent had another live run on a different task at the same time.
That run used a different sandbox and a different workspace, so it was
not the cause. The busy owner was the task's own prior warm session. The
new run had reserved that session's instruction directory itself
(`reserveWarmNativeInstructionDirectory` sets `preparingRunId` to the
new run). `retireSupersededWarmNativeSessions` then saw `preparingRunId`
and rejected the run.

**Expected behavior**
The follow-up run retires the prior warm owner of its own task, keeps
the instruction directory it adopted, starts the new session, and runs
once. The task does not become blocked.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run a native Runner (Codex app-server) task to completion with a warm
session and a managed instruction directory.
2. Change the agent's effective run configuration, so the saved session
cannot resume.
3. Wake the same task again (for example, a board comment with reopen).
4. Before this change, the run fails at startup with
`native_session_supervisor_busy` and the task becomes blocked.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Observed on staging at `7fd05e13`. The code is unchanged on `master`.

## What Changed

- `retireSupersededWarmNativeSessions` now receives the current run id.
When the prior owner of the same task (same logical owner scope) is
reserved by this run (`preparingRunId === runId`), retirement continues
instead of throwing `native_session_supervisor_busy`.
- That retirement closes the prior owner with
`preserveInstructionsForRunId`, so the directory that this run adopted
is not collected. This matches the existing configuration-change branch
in warm reuse.
- After a successful close, the reservation is cleared. A failed close
keeps the reservation, so its `release()` retries retirement as before.
- A reservation by any other run, a busy owner, and an executing scope
still throw `native_session_supervisor_busy`.

## Verification

- Red before the fix, green after
(`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts`,
"managed directory warm checkpoints"):
- "retires its own reserved directory owner when the session identity
rotates": before, the run rejected with
`native_session_supervisor_busy`. After, the prior owner closes once,
the new session runs once, the adopted directory is not collected during
retirement, and it is collected once when the new owner retires.
- "retires its own reserved directory owner after the Runner claim when
the session identity rotates" (the production `useRunnerd` path, where
retirement happens after the claim): before, admission rejected with
`native_session_supervisor_busy`. After, admission retires the prior
owner and keeps the adopted directory.
- Safety case (green before and after): "still rejects a session
identity rotation over another run's directory reservation". The
provider does not start and the other run's owner is not closed.
- Existing safety case (green): "does not retire an active turn when a
new session identity arrives".
- `npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts
src/services/heartbeat/instruction-working-copy`: 1163 passed.
- Staging evidence was read only. This change is not deployed.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change applies only when the prior owner has the same
logical owner scope (company, agent, task, workspace, environment) and
its reservation names the current run. That reservation exists only
after this run validated reuse of the prior directory.
- The claim-path instruction copy (`claimWarmNativeInstructionCopy`,
which sets `busy`) is unchanged. That path is not used by Codex
app-server agents.
- Two related points are unchanged and are out of scope here: a startup
failure after the workspace is prepared still retains the sandbox and
blocks the task, and the "Instruction edits could not be recovered"
warning on that failure is advisory only. With this fix, this flow no
longer reaches that failure.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, with tool use (shell,
file edits, browser read of staging run records) in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 e37ab23dbc fix: hold an agent's new work while its provider usage limit is active (#19246)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Routine-driven agents run on the native Runner through ACP harnesses
such as Claude
> - When the agent's provider account runs out of allowance, every new
wake for that agent fails the same way
> - The ACP harness reported the exhausted allowance as a generic
"terminal limit failure" with an `unknown` category, so Paperclip could
not tell it from a context or turn limit
> - Paperclip recorded a reset time only for the failing run's own
startup retry; other wakes of the same agent kept dispatching, each
spent about two minutes on workspace setup, and then failed
> - This pull request classifies the limit, keeps its reset time, and
holds the agent's new work until that reset
> - The benefit is that a limited agent stops burning runs, shows a
clear "waiting for usage limit reset" state with a time, and resumes its
queued work after the reset

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13148
Refs #13379

**What happened?**
A routine-driven Claude agent on the native Runner failed 29 times in
about 15 hours. 20 runs failed with `native_provider_terminal_failed`
and "ACP agent reported a terminal limit failure." The recorded provider
failure had category `unknown`. 6 runs failed with
`provider_session_open_rejected`. Their `session.open` result is
`command_execution_failed` with classification `provider_rate_limit`,
and the provider failure is HTTP 429 `rate_limit` ("would exceed your
account's rate limit"). The startup retry of one such run recorded a
cooldown until one hour later. A new wake for a different task of the
same agent dispatched 16 minutes later, spent two minutes on workspace
setup, and failed with the same 429. Separately, 4 runs failed with
"Project authentication conflicts with this agent's managed AI
connection". That message did not say which file or setting conflicted.
The same message was also shown when the check could not finish.

**What did you expect?**
A provider usage limit is classified distinctly. Paperclip records the
reset time when the provider reports one. New work for that agent waits
for the reset with a visible reason. Queued work resumes after the
reset, and no doomed run starts. A configuration conflict is reported
only when one is found, and the message names the file to fix.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Use a native Runner agent with a Claude ACP harness whose account is
rate limited or out of usage.
2. Let a routine or assignment wake the agent on several tasks.
3. See each run fail with a generic terminal limit failure or a
`session.open` rejection, and see new runs keep starting.

## What Changed

- Runner: The ACPX turn now receives the typed AIR session failure
(`onTerminalSessionFailure`) through the runtime host and the ACPX port.
The sidecar adds the provider's title to the provider failure message.
Only a rate-limit or quota title becomes `rate_limit` or
`quota_exhausted`. Context, turn and configured budget limits stay
`unknown`. The failure details stay private.
- Server: A native `turn.failed` with a `rate_limit` or
`quota_exhausted` provider failure is now `native_provider_usage_limit`,
the same code as the Codex usage-limit terminal.
- Server: `agentProviderLimitCooldown` (extracted from the startup
retry) also reads a reset clock in the provider's wording, such as
"resets 2am (UTC)". The clock parser moved from the recovery service to
`provider-quota-reset.ts` without changes.
- Server: New `heartbeat/provider-limit-wait.ts`. Before any workspace
or provider work, a queued run for an agent with an active provider
limit is cancelled as `provider_limit_wait`. The run records the reset
time, whether the provider reported it, the category and the run that
reported the limit. Paperclip schedules one retry of the same wake at
the reset through the existing AI connection wait lane. That lane does
not consume the failure retry budget. Manual runs, recovering runs,
conversation turns and pool-routed connections are not held.
- Server: The execution projection shows "Waiting for usage limit reset"
with the reset time and the next step.
- Server: Only a found project authentication conflict is a
configuration failure. Its message names the project file and the
settings to remove. A check that cannot finish (timeout or another exit
code) is now an ordinary failure, not a configuration conflict.
- Docs: `doc/execution-semantics.md` describes the agent-level limit
wait.

## Verification

Red before the fix, green after:
- `server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-provider-limit-wait.test.ts`: An
automation wake after a 429 `session.open` rejection dispatched the
adapter before the fix. Now the run is cancelled as
`provider_limit_wait` and a scheduled retry exists at the reset. After
the reset passes, the retry is promoted and the work succeeds. A manual
run, a later success, expired evidence and an unclassified terminal
still dispatch.
- `native-startup-retry.integration.test.ts`: "reads the reset clock
from an ACP terminal limit failure's provider wording" (it fell back to
one hour before).
- `native-session-executor.test.ts`: An ACP `turn.failed` with a typed
`quota_exhausted` or `rate_limit` failure is a usage-limit terminal;
`unknown` is not.
- `packages/paperclip-runner/src/drivers/provider-failure.test.ts`: A
typed AIR limit title is kept and classified; context, turn and budget
limits are not; details do not leak.
- `execution-projection.test.ts`, `ai-connections.test.ts`: The wait
label, and conflict versus unfinished check.
- Safety cases: `runtime-host.test.ts` and
`codex-runtime-adapter.test.ts` forward the callback. The existing
startup retry, provider capacity, recovery classification, legacy
reconciliation, retry scheduling and execution configuration suites
pass.

Commands:
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-provider-limit-wait.test.ts
src/__tests__/ai-connections.test.ts src/services/native-runtime/
src/services/recovery/ src/services/execution-projection.test.ts
src/services/legacy-execution-recovery.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-retry-scheduling.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-execution-configuration.test.ts`
- `cd packages/paperclip-runner && npx vitest run
src/drivers/provider-failure.test.ts
src/drivers/acpx/runtime-host.test.ts
src/drivers/acpx/codex-runtime-adapter.test.ts
src/cli/acpx-runtime-sidecar.test.ts`
- `tsc --noEmit` for server and paperclip-runner; the ACPX sidecar and
provider-failure contract checks pass.

I did not run a live provider limit on staging. The live evidence is the
staging run records for the affected agent, which I read only.

## Risks

- The limit evidence is per agent, not per account. If the board changes
the agent's AI connection, automatic wakes can still wait until the old
reset (at most one hour when no reset was reported, and at most one
day). A manual run is not held, and one successful run clears the
evidence.
- A new wake that arrives during a limit is now cancelled and retried at
the reset, instead of failing. The task stays in its status, and the run
shows the reset time.
- The Runner change takes effect when the provider pack is rebuilt and
deployed. Until then, the server still holds new work using the existing
`rate_limit` evidence from `session.open` rejections.
- A turn terminal with a typed rate limit or quota is now
`native_provider_usage_limit` instead of
`native_provider_terminal_failed`. Both are terminal and board-owned.
The recovery text now asks the board to restore provider usage capacity.

DottaandPaperclip 3a090b815b fix: retain native checkpoint ownership through warm close (#19225)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A native warm session must save its checkpoint under its exact
coordinator owner.
> - A failed turn can return an accepted result before that checkpoint
is saved.
> - The executor stopped renewal and released the owner before the
managed session closed.
> - The backup owner guard then refused the uncommitted, released owner.
A failed close could remain in the warm session map.
> - This pull request keeps the claim and its existing renewal through
checkpoint, close and instruction collection.
> - The benefit is a valid checkpoint owner and one fenced release after
the work joins.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19208, #19206 and #14695. Those fixes cover a destroyed backup
source, Stop before a provider session opens, and retained agent-file
ownership. They do not change this checkpoint ownership order.

**What happened?**

A failed warm turn accepted its result. Its coordinator reached
`workspace_finalizing`, with a result ID and no lease owner. Managed
close then called the durable checkpoint writer. The writer correctly
refused this state with `native_harness_storage_owner_missing`. The
failed close could remain for the next fresh session to retire.

**Expected behavior**

The current claim and renewal remain valid until the required
checkpoint, close and instruction collection join. Cleanup stops and
joins renewal, then releases only that exact claim. A changed owner is
not cleared. An earlier error keeps its identity.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run the new real-Postgres regression against the base commit.
2. Complete a structured failed warm turn through the normal
control-plane result producer.
3. Let the actual managed-session close call its production checkpoint
callback.
4. Observe the missing-owner refusal after coordinator release.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Base: `56517dda6c`. The native ownership order also exists on the
earlier failing revision.

**Deployment mode**

Native warm execution with durable harness storage and a managed remote
workspace.

## What Changed

- Join warm checkpoint, managed close and instruction collection before
coordinator release.
- Keep the existing lease renewal active through that work. Stop and
join it before release.
- Run the same fenced release after a checkpoint or collection error.
Preserve the initiating error unless restart detachment has won. Keep
the typed restart outcome and changed-owner fences. Attach only closed
cleanup-failure flags.
- Add real-Postgres ownership, delayed-renewal, error, retry and denial
cases. Route the managed-session regression through the existing
artifact-equipped native test lane. Update the continuity test for the
retained claim. Document the active renewal lifetime.

## Verification

- Red: the producing coordinator had an accepted result,
`phase=workspace_finalizing` and `leaseOwner=null` at managed close. The
production checkpoint callback refused it with
`native_harness_storage_owner_missing`.
- Green: all 9 real-Postgres regression cases pass. They cover a real
20-second renewal tick, a failed checkpoint, one force-fresh successor,
and wrong-boot and changed-owner denial. Actual restart detachment wins
even when checkpoint and joined renewal-stop both reject. The
replacement claim remains unchanged. No new provider turn or
cancellation receipt is created. A private canary does not enter the
closed diagnostic flags or an error cause.
- The executor, restart-recovery and heartbeat compatibility suites
pass: 1,259 tests, with 20 gated skips. The container-enabled continuity
case was not run locally. Its 21-second timer check remains. It now
requires the exact claim during `hasChanges()` and checks release after
the joined work.
- All 39 shard-routing and combined-coverage tests pass. The new
regression runs in the existing native lane with the required Runner
artifact.
- Final local head `0edcc37f35` passes `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm
build`, `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and the 9-case regression. The
earlier broader compatibility run used identical source bytes. A
separate earlier repo-wide local suite on `6cdd68e915` ended with exit
1. Its general-server stage had one GitHub enrollment acknowledgement
failure, 31,469 passing tests and 215 skipped tests. That
acknowledgement failure reproduced in one narrow run on the same old
tree. It is not an established flake or proven caused by this fix. Later
repository stages did not run. No duplicate broad suite or full local
pass is claimed.
- The first published head failed review for detach-error precedence and
the old continuity assertion. Its server shard also failed because the
new test lacked a Runner daemon in the general lane. Those failures
remain recorded. This candidate fixes their causes. Both exact-head
reviews are now 5/5. The hosted native-server lane ran all 9 new
ownership tests successfully. One unchanged tool-gateway rate-rule test
failed in the first current-head CI run. It passed previously and passed
locally, both narrowly and in its full 183-test file. The single
same-head failed-job rerun passed. All current-head hosted gates are
clean. The initial failure remains recorded; no test assertion was
weakened.
- The provider transport is an in-memory fixture. The managed wrapper,
production checkpoint callback, control-plane result and Postgres
ownership are real. No paid provider or live remote process is
exercised. This does not prove a deployed recovery or a remote stop
receipt.

## Risks

- A slow required checkpoint extends the lifetime of the existing active
renewal. Its cadence stays at 20 seconds for remote claims and 5 minutes
for local claims. It runs only while the admitted checkpoint, close and
collection remain active, then stops and joins on completion or
unwinding. The tests observe a real remote renewal tick. No idle timer,
new retry budget or new worker is added.
- The release still checks company, task, run, owner, attempt, boot,
PID, process start and expiry. Restart detachment retains its recovery
owner.
- The storage owner guard is unchanged. No migration, permission,
provider setting or deployment change is included.

code execution and read-only staging metadata. Context window and

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 beb73381ca fix(native): let a Stop before the provider session opens continue once (#19206)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A remote task restores its saved workspace into a sandbox before the
agent starts.
> - When that restore fails, the run records only
`remote_workspace_operation_failed: operation=restore exit=1`.
> - The run then fails as `setup_failed`. No retry starts, and a
`blocked` task gets no recovery action.
> - An operator cannot tell which step failed, and nobody owns the next
step.
> - This pull request makes the sandbox scripts name their failed step
in a closed grammar, and it gives a restore failure a bounded retry or a
named board recovery action.
> - The benefit is a visible cause and a clear owner. Saved work stays
protected.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19152 and #19187. Those changes name copy-back (save) failures.
Refs #18852 and #19195. Those changes added the bounded bootstrap retry
that this change reuses.

**What happened?**

A board reply woke an agent on a `blocked` parent task. The run failed
during setup 13 seconds later. The only run event was
`remote_workspace_operation_failed: operation=restore exit=1`. The run
had no workspace operation row. The task stayed `blocked`, and its
recovery actions showed `active: null`. The same opaque family also
appeared for workspace preparation (`exit=1` only).

**Expected behavior**

The run names which restore step failed, without command output or
paths. A failure before provider work uses a bounded retry when a retry
can help. Otherwise, and when the retry budget is spent, the board gets
a named recovery action. The saved version is never changed or
overwritten.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Save a remote workspace, then start a new run on a different
allocation.
2. Put a folder at the published workspace path in the sandbox before
restore.
3. Observe that the base code records only `operation=restore exit=1`,
then `setup_failed`, with no recovery action for a `blocked` task.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Base: `87dfba6818`.

**Deployment mode**

Legacy runtime with sandbox (Daytona) remote workspace storage.

## What Changed

- The prepare, repository, and restore sandbox scripts track their
current stage. On failure they print `remote_workspace_<op>_failed:
stage=<stage>` plus closed fields: `reason=` (the script's own
snake_case refusal), `archive=` (the archive helper's fixed reason),
`code=` (errno), `disk=full`, `git=` (a fixed label chosen from Git
output), and the existing `exit`/`signal`/`program` fields.
- The server accepts that text only when it matches a strict grammar for
the same operation. Other output is dropped, as before.
- Provider refusals during the restore upload and restore command are
recorded by closed labels, like copy-back.
- A failed saved-workspace restore raises `RemoteWorkspaceRestoreError`
with the server step (`snapshot_lookup`, `snapshot_download`,
`sandbox_restore`). It is retryable only when the owner re-reads the
same writer, epoch, and saved version with no unsaved work, and the
sandbox did not name a refusal reason.
- Setup failure handling classifies a pre-dispatch legacy restore
failure as `remote_workspace_restore_failed`. A retryable failure uses
the existing bounded bootstrap retry. A non-retryable or exhausted
failure records a board-owned recovery action with the redacted cause,
when stranded-work recovery does not scan the task status (for example
`blocked`).
- Stranded-work recovery gets a named notice for this code. Generic
continuation recovery does not grant it a second budget, and legacy
reconciliation does not invent provider actions for it.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` documents the contract.

## Verification

- Red: the new transport tests failed on the base code with
`remote_workspace_operation_failed: operation=restore exit=1` (and the
same for prepare and repository). The new completion tests failed
because the run became `setup_failed` with no retry and no recovery
action.
- Green: `npx vitest run src/services/remote-workspace-transport.test.ts
src/services/heartbeat/run-completion.test.ts
src/services/remote-workspaces.integration.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-retry-scheduling.test.ts
src/services/legacy-execution-recovery.test.ts src/services/recovery
src/services/remote-workspace-save-concurrency.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-workspace-finalizer-failure.test.ts
src/__tests__/native-workspace-finalization-work.test.ts` passes (563
tests).
- The transport tests use real sandbox commands. They prove an occupied
folder reports `stage=inspect_root reason=occupied_root` and keeps its
files. They prove a wrong manifest reports `stage=extract
archive=manifest_mismatch`. They prove a missing branch reports
`stage=checkout_branch`, and a changed origin reports
`stage=verify_origin`. Forged output with a path is dropped.
- The real-PostgreSQL cold-restore test proves an occupied root gives a
non-retryable `sandbox_restore` failure and keeps the unknown files.
- The completion tests cover retried, exhausted, refused, post-dispatch,
and `in_progress` cases.
- `tsc --noEmit` for the server reports no errors in the changed files.

## Risks

- A retry keeps the same restore path. If the cause is deterministic but
unnamed, the run uses its two retries before the board action. Named
refusals skip the retries.
- The board action is recorded only for statuses that stranded-work
recovery does not scan, and only when no other action is active. This
prevents a second recovery identity for one failure.
- Script stderr grammar is new. Old sandboxes run the script that the
server sends, so no runner update is necessary.
- No migration, deployment, or credential change.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 f5891564ec fix(recovery): continue from a retired sandbox's backup and hand spent export repairs to the board (#19208)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native tasks keep a warm sandbox and a verified per-turn backup of
the provider session.
> - Recovery holds stop a task when continuation is not safe. They must
have a next action and an owner.
> - In a staging soak, two kinds of held tasks could not move forward.
Users followed the product's own instruction, and nothing changed.
> - First, a reply to a task whose warm sandbox Paperclip had already
destroyed failed every time. The label then said "Send a message to
continue" again.
> - Second, an exhausted system workspace repair stayed active and
system-owned for hours. The board saw no owner, and a reply started
nothing.
> - This pull request lets a reply continue from the backup when the
source sandbox is provably gone, and hands a spent system repair to the
board with a named Retry.
> - The benefit is that productive work always has a next action that
can succeed, and nothing replays or runs twice.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
(a) A native warm task ran one successful turn. A later legacy follow-up
retired the warm sandbox lease. The next user reply got a new sandbox
(`created` lease). The executor found a verified backup but no reusable
lease, so it threw `runner_harness_state_mismatch:
backup_without_reusable_lease`. The run retried on the restart-recovery
path, failed `native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch`, and ended as
`native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`. Workspace recovery then
said "Saved work recovered. Send a message to continue." Each new reply
repeated the same failure.
(b) A run failed `native_workspace_sync_out_retry_exhausted`. System
workspace recovery used its 6 bounded attempts and became `exhausted`.
The recovery action stayed `active` with `ownerType: system`. The UI
hides system-owned recovery actions, so the board saw no action. Nothing
ran for more than two hours.

**Expected behavior**
(a) When Paperclip destroyed the source sandbox and no provider work
followed the backup, the reply continues once from the backup. Ambiguous
states still fail closed.
(b) When the bounded budget is spent, the action names a board owner and
a Retry action that can progress it.

**Steps to reproduce**
(a) Finish a warm native turn. Retire its reusable lease through
obsolete-lease cleanup. Send a reply. The new run gets a `created` lease
and fails `backup_without_reusable_lease`.
(b) Let system workspace recovery reach its deadline or retry limit.
Read the recovery action. It is still `ownerType: system`.

Related merged work checked first: #19145, #19184, #19187, #19189,
#19190, #18943 (added the guard for migrated sessions). Open recovery
PRs (`gh pr list --search recovery --state open`) do not touch these
paths.

## What Changed

- `native-retired-backup-source.ts` (new):
`retiredSourceAuthorizesNativeBackupRestore` decides whether a created
lease may restore the backup. All must be true: the backup's source
lease is `expired` or `failed`; it has a provider termination receipt
with state `destroyed`; its `nativeHarnessBackup` stamp names this exact
manifest SHA-256, session and runner instance; exactly one host lease
maps to the provider allocation; and no provider durable event for the
session was recorded after the backup completed. The provider event type
set moved here and the executor imports it.
- `native-session-executor.ts`:
`shouldRestoreNativeHarnessBackupIntoSandbox` accepts
`retiredSourceContinuation`. A created lease with a configured reusable
lease evaluates it, beside the existing migrated-session path. The
restore uses the existing verified restore and stamps the new lease.
- `system-recovery.ts`: `updateSystemRecovery` moves an `exhausted`
action to `ownerType: board` and writes a next action and workspace
recovery message that name the attempt count, the last failure code, and
**Retry recovery**. Retry (`requestWorkspaceRecovery`) already starts a
new bounded generation and returns ownership to the system.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: documents both rules.

## Verification

- Red before the fix, green after:
- `npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts -t "restores
a warm backup into a created lease only when"`. Before: the
destroyed-source case rejected with `runner_harness_state_mismatch:
backup_without_reusable_lease`. After: it restores the runner state and
provider home into the new sandbox and stamps the new lease.
- `npx vitest run src/services/workspace-recovery.test.ts -t "hands an
exhausted system export repair"`. Before: `exhausted` with `ownerType:
"system"`. After: `ownerType: "board"`, the blocker says Retry recovery
and never says "send a message", no provider run or lease resume
happens, and Retry starts one new system generation.
- Safety cases (fail closed): a stopped (not destroyed) source, a stamp
for another checkpoint, provider work after the backup, a still-reusable
`released` lease, a missing receipt, and two host leases for one
allocation. These run in the executor test and in
`native-retired-backup-source.integration.test.ts` against embedded
Postgres.
- Related suites pass: `workspace-recovery.test.ts`,
`system-recovery-state.test.ts`, `native-session-executor.test.ts`,
`task-retry.test.ts`, `explicit-native-continuation.test.ts`,
`workspace-recovery-source.test.ts`,
`native-workspace-export-retry.test.ts`,
`native-remote-retry-admission.test.ts`,
`native-workspace-warm-reuse.test.ts`,
`native-workspace-sync-retention.test.ts`,
`heartbeat-observed-workspace-preservation.test.ts`,
`execution-control-work.test.ts` (2,224 tests).
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json` passes.
- Not done: a live run against staging. Staging access was read-only.
The staging evidence is the run event timeline described above.

## Risks

- (a) A backup restore after a lost sandbox could rewind a session if
newer provider state existed. The predicate requires a provider
`destroyed` receipt and no provider event after the checkpoint. A
stopped sandbox, a pending cleanup, or a still-reusable lease still
fails closed with the old error.
- (a) The event-time check can fail closed if a late event from the
backup turn is written after the checkpoint time. That keeps the old
behavior; it never authorizes a restore.
- (b) The action's next action text stays as the exhausted message while
a later Retry generation runs. The task blocker shows the live workspace
recovery message first, so users see "Recovering saved work…" during
that time.
- Not changed: when the predicate fails closed, the run still follows
the existing reconciliation path. That path can still end with the "Send
a message to continue" receipt. That residual is narrower now and needs
a separate change to the workspace recovery receipt.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 2141efc097 fix(native): answer Stop during slow native startup with 409 and settle it as cancelled (#19189)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Operators stop a running agent run with `POST
/api/heartbeat-runs/:runId/cancel`
> - For a native run, Stop waits up to 30 seconds for the native session
to open before it can deliver the cancel
> - A remote native session can take longer than 30 seconds to open.
Then the wait fails with `native_cancellation_pending_recovery`, and the
route answers HTTP 500
> - The Stop intent was already saved. The startup owner fenced the late
session in memory only, so the run ended as a provider failure, not as a
cancellation
> - This pull request maps that outcome to a clear 409 and makes the
late session acknowledge the saved Stop intent
> - The benefit is a consistent cancel result and a run that ends as
`cancelled` when an operator stops it during a slow startup

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An operator stopped a native run about 40 seconds after it started. The
run was still opening its remote provider session (session startup took
about 105 seconds). The cancel request waited 30 seconds for the startup
handle, then returned HTTP 500 `{"error":"Internal server error"}`. The
run record showed `executionCancellation.state = "requested"` and
`nativeCancellation.dispatchState = "pending"`. When the session opened,
the executor fenced it and threw `native_finalization_missing: session
returned no semantic result`. The run ended `failed` with
`native_session_interrupted`, and the pending Stop intent was never
acknowledged.

**Expected behavior**

The cancel route returns a clear result and never an internal error. If
the Stop is saved but the session is still starting, the route returns
409 with code `native_stop_pending`. When the late session opens, it
acknowledges the saved Stop, and the run settles as an operator
cancellation.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native run whose provider session takes more than 30 seconds
to open.
2. Stop the run from the board while the session is still opening.
3. See HTTP 500 from the cancel route, and see the run end `failed`
instead of `cancelled`.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/heartbeat/run-control.ts`: the cancel path
catches `native_cancellation_pending_recovery` from native dispatch. It
throws `409 native_stop_pending` instead. The run stays `running` and
keeps its saved Stop intent. No terminal transition or release happens.
- `server/src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.ts`: when
a late startup handle opens after a Stop caller timed out, the executor
reads the run. If a run-scope Stop intent is still `pending`, it calls
the durable `cancelNativeSession(..., { db, scope: "run" })` against the
published handle. This records the audited acknowledgement (`dispatched:
true`). The existing in-memory fence still runs. If the acknowledgement
fails, the executor logs a warning and keeps the previous behavior.
- New regression
`server/src/services/heartbeat/native-stop-pending.test.ts` (real
Postgres): startup-wait timeout and remote-ack timeout both give 409
`native_stop_pending`. The run stays `running` with its Stop intent.
Other native Stop errors stay unchanged.
- New regression in `native-session-executor.test.ts`: a Stop that times
out on startup gets its saved intent acknowledged when the late handle
opens. The provider session is cancelled once, and no turn is submitted.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: `native-stop-pending.test.ts` failed (raw
`NativeCancellationPendingRecoveryError` / `Error`, not `HttpError`).
The executor regression failed (no acknowledgement write).
- Green after the fix: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/heartbeat/native-stop-pending.test.ts`
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts -t "late
startup"`
- Related suites:
`src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts`,
`src/services/heartbeat/`,
`src/services/native-runtime/native-stop-accounting.integration.test.ts`,
`src/__tests__/agent-live-run-routes.test.ts`.
- Evidence: the incident run had cancellation recorded at 01:12:01Z and
the 500 at 01:12:32Z. This matches the 30-second
`waitForNativeSessionStartup` deadline. Its final error matched the
startup-stop branch in the executor.

## Risks

- Low to medium. The 409 only replaces an error that was already a
failure. The caller still sees "not stopped yet", and the run is not
marked cancelled.
- The late acknowledgement runs only when a run-scope intent is
`pending` and the handle is published. It uses the same durable cancel
path that the reattach branch already uses. It can commit the normal
Stop status decision for the issue. That is the same effect a timely
Stop has.
- If the acknowledgement fails, the code falls back to the previous
in-memory fence. A Stop never gives a second executor: no provider turn
is submitted after the handle opens.

execution in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 f1516e8009 fix(native): stop a session.open model rejection instead of a doomed bootstrap retry (#19190)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native Runner runs start a provider session with the `session.open`
command before any prompt
> - A definite `session.open` rejection is treated as a pre-session
failure and gets a bounded same-run bootstrap retry
> - The runner also reports a closed classification. Two classifications
say that the provider cannot run the selected model:
`requested_model_unsupported` and `grok_model_mismatch`
> - Paperclip ignored that classification. It scheduled a retry that
must fail the same way. On a remote sandbox with a retained runner PID,
the due retry entered restart recovery. Restart recovery has no
checkpoint for a bootstrap retry, so it failed closed as
`native_restart_recovery_blocked` / `ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`
> - The task then stayed `blocked`. The recovery actions settled as
no-replay holds, so no active action told anyone to change the model,
and the parent task stalled too
> - This pull request classifies those two definite rejections as the
existing `native_provider_model_rejected` failure
> - The benefit is a terminal failure on the first attempt, an accurate
error, and an active board recovery action that names the next step:
choose a supported model

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
On a hosted staging instance, a Grok agent run failed at `session.open`.
The runner log said `ACPX sidecar command session.open was rejected
(retryable=false, classification=grok_model_mismatch)`. Paperclip
recorded `recoveryMode: "bootstrap_retry"` and scheduled a same-run
retry 30 seconds later. The run had a remote sandbox and a recorded
sandbox PID, so the due retry went to restart recovery. Restart recovery
found no checkpoint and no provider events and failed closed with
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`. The run ended as
`native_restart_recovery_blocked`. The task stayed `blocked` with no
active recovery action for more than one hour. Its parent task stayed
blocked on it.

**What did you expect to happen?**
The selected model cannot start, so a retry cannot succeed. The run
should fail once with the model-rejection error. The task should show
the existing "choose a model" action, owned by the board, until someone
changes the model and retries.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native run whose `session.open` command fails with
`classification=grok_model_mismatch` (or `requested_model_unsupported`).
2. Read the `native_run_finalizations` row. Before this change it is
`retryable_failure` with `recoveryMode: "bootstrap_retry"` and a
`nextAttemptAt`.
3. On a remote sandbox run with a recorded PID, the due retry enters
restart recovery and fails as `native_restart_recovery_blocked`.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at `f5f5184f23`.

Related: #18910 routes due remote retries with a retained PID to restart
recovery. #18908 continues verified failed native preparation. Open PRs
#19177, #19180, #19182 and #19184 change no-replay hold settlement and
workspace hold release. They do not change this classification. This PR
does not duplicate them.

## What Changed

- `nativeSessionFailureSourceCode`
(`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.ts`)
returns `native_provider_model_rejected` for a definite `session.open`
failure or rejection whose runner classification is
`requested_model_unsupported` or `grok_model_mismatch`. Other definite
`session.open` rejections still return `provider_session_open_rejected`
and keep the bounded startup retry. An indeterminate `session.open`
outcome stays `native_session_interrupted`.
- `native_provider_model_rejected` is already a permanent failure. The
run stops on the first attempt with no `nextAttemptAt`, so it never
enters the restart-recovery retry path.
- When no provider session exists, the coordinator `nextAction` and the
board recovery action `nextAction` say: choose a supported model for
this agent, then retry the task.
- The existing product paths for `native_provider_model_rejected` apply:
the task presentation shows `choose_model`, and the recovery service
treats it as `configuration_incomplete`.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` describes the rule under "Native provider
model capacity".

## Verification

Red before the fix (new test, unchanged production code):

```sh
cd server && npx vitest run src/services/native-runtime/native-startup-retry.integration.test.ts
# Tests 2 failed | 21 passed
# failureCode: native_session_interrupted, phase: retryable_failure, recoveryMode: bootstrap_retry,
# nextAction "Retry provider bootstrap on this same run ..." - the same record seen on staging
```

Green after the fix:

```sh
cd server && npx vitest run src/services/native-runtime/native-startup-retry.integration.test.ts
# Tests 23 passed

cd server && npx vitest run src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts \
  src/services/native-runtime/native-startup-retry.integration.test.ts src/services/task-interruption-presentation.test.ts
# Test Files 3 passed, Tests 1186 passed

pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck   # exit 0
```

The new integration cases use embedded PostgreSQL and the real executor
failure path. For both classifications they check:

- coordinator `terminal_failure`, `failureCode:
native_provider_model_rejected`, `nextAttemptAt: null`, attempt 1
- run `failed` with `errorCode: native_provider_model_rejected`
- task `blocked`, execution lock released
- an `active` board recovery action with cause
`native_provider_model_rejected`, return owner set to the agent, and the
choose-model next action
- `settleUnrecoverableExecutions` leaves the action `active`, so it does
not become a silent no-replay hold
- `claimNativeSessionResumptions` claims nothing, so there is no second
executor

The unit test also checks that `session_ensure_failed` keeps its bounded
retry and that an indeterminate model rejection stays unclassified.

A live Grok run with a mismatched model was not run. The failure record
in the test matches the staging record field by field.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change adds two closed runner classifications to an
existing permanent failure code. Other `session.open` rejections keep
their current retry.
- A model mismatch that a retry could fix would now need an explicit
retry. The runner already marks these rejections `retryable=false`.
- This PR does not change restart recovery. A remote bootstrap retry
with a retained sandbox PID for other `session.open` causes can still
fail closed as `ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`. That needs a
separate change with remote stop evidence.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 a994a648f1 fix(workspaces): name copy-back failures on the run and end failed save operations (#19187)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A native run in a Daytona sandbox saves its workspace after the
provider turn. This save is "copy-back".
> - On staging, about 20 runs kept a saved result, but copy-back failed
three times. The issues became blocked with
`native_workspace_sync_out_retry_exhausted`.
> - #19152 added a redacted cause for a sandbox command that exits with
an error. Three gaps stayed open: a provider that refuses the command
still gives a bare code, the run does not show the cause, and the failed
save operation stays "running".
> - The first failure also had the wrong name. The runner kept the
result but did not prove a durable suspension. The executor reports this
as `native_session_lease_lost`, and the workspace operation shows only
that text.
> - This pull request names each of these failures with closed, redacted
labels. It also ends a failed save operation as "failed".
> - The benefit is that operators can see why copy-back failed and which
save is still active. Retries and saved results do not change.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19152, #19145. These are the earlier copy-back diagnostics and
retry-scheduling repairs. This PR does not duplicate them.

**What happened?**
A native task ran in a Daytona sandbox and its result was accepted. The
run then failed with `native_workspace_sync_out_retry_exhausted`. The
run had no error text. The automatic copy-back retries each failed in
under one second, with only `workspace_sync_out_failed`. The final
`remote_workspace_snapshot` operation stayed "running" after the retries
stopped. The first `workspace_finalize` operation showed only
`native_session_lease_lost`. The run log showed that the runner shutdown
timed out before durable suspension. The lease was not lost.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run a native task in a Daytona sandbox until its result is accepted.
2. Make the sandbox provider refuse the copy-back command (for example,
a lease that is no longer active), so that no exit status comes back.
3. Let the automatic retries stop. Then read the run and its workspace
operations.

**Expected behavior**
The run, the coordinator, and the failed operations name a redacted
cause. The failed save operation is "failed" with a finish time.

**Actual behavior**
The run has no cause. The save operation stays "running". A provider
refusal keeps only the bare `workspace_sync_out_failed` code.

## What Changed

- `remote-workspace-transport.ts`: the provider can throw instead of
returning an exit status for the copy-back helper, the capture, or the
archive download. `remoteWorkspaceFailureCause` then returns
`remote_workspace_operation_failed: operation=<op> transport=<label>[
code=<ERRNO>]`. The label is from a closed list (for example
`sandbox_lease_inactive`, `permission_denied`, `sandbox_not_running`,
`transport_timeout`, `transport_closed`, `daytona_sandbox_not_found`,
`provider_error`). Provider text is never copied into the cause. The
thrown error does not change, so preparation errors,
`classifyNativeWorkspaceFailure`, and other callers keep their
contracts. Archive-safety and Git-metadata refusals get no label,
because they have their own diagnostics.
- `remote-workspaces.ts`: when the last active invocation of a save
fails, the save operation becomes "failed" with `exitCode`,
`finishedAt`, a redacted `stderrExcerpt`, and `metadata.lastFailure`. A
retry of the same boundary sets it to "running" again. A success sets it
to "succeeded". After the final save commits, a failed save is retired
for export cleanup in the same way as a running save.
- `remote-workspace-snapshot-retention.ts`: a failed save that is not
retired keeps its snapshot pinned, as it did while it was "running". Its
retry can still use an uploaded snapshot.
- `native-run-finalizer.ts` and `native-workspace-finalizer.ts`: the
redacted cause of each copy-back attempt goes to the coordinator
`failureDetail.failureCause` and the run `resultJson.failureCause`. When
retries stop, the run error adds `Last cause: <cause>`. The server
checks the cause against a fixed grammar again before it writes it. A
cause with a path or other text is dropped.
- `native-post-result-failure.ts` (new), `native-session-executor.ts`,
`runtime-execution.ts`: a failure after an accepted result gets the
label `runner_settlement_incomplete` when the runner did not prove a
durable suspension. The failed `workspace_finalize` operation records
this closed diagnostic as `failureDiagnostic`. The coordinator records
it as `native_post_result_failure: category=<label>`. The control code
`native_session_lease_lost` and its fencing do not change.

## Verification

- Red, before the fix (the new tests run against `master` source):
- 4 provider-refusal cases and the archive download failure: no redacted
cause was available, so the copy-back recorded only the bare code.
- Failed save, with only the transport fix applied: `- "status":
"failed"` / `+ "status": "running"`.
- Run cause after retries stop: `expected null to be
'remote_workspace_operation_failed: …'`.
- Green, after the fix:
`cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/remote-workspace-transport.test.ts
src/services/remote-workspace-save-concurrency.test.ts
src/__tests__/native-workspace-finalization-work.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-post-result-failure.test.ts
src/services/remote-workspaces.integration.test.ts
src/services/remote-workspace-snapshot-retention.test.ts` passes.
- Safety cases:
- The failed save is retried on the same boundary operation, records
"succeeded", and keeps the saved file bytes.
- `daytona_sandbox_not_found` is still classified as
`workspace_sync_out_unrecoverable`.
  - An archive-safety refusal keeps its exact text.
  - A forged cause with a path never reaches the run or the coordinator.
- A run-level timeout cause (`remote_workspace_operation_timed_out:
capture (configured timeout 300000ms)`) reaches the run and the
coordinator.
- `heartbeat-native-remote-failure-retention.test.ts` passes: a
preparation failure keeps its exact run error.
- The existing integration tests for retired saves, poisoned
reservations, duplicate invocations, and snapshot retention pass. They
prove export cleanup and identity protection.
- `tsc --noEmit` for `server` reports no errors.
- Not done: a live Daytona copy-back. This PR adds diagnostics and
corrects the operation state. It does not change when a retry runs.

## Risks

- Thrown copy-back errors do not change. Only the recorded cause is new.
The `daytona_sandbox_not_found` and archive-safety classifications are
tested.
- A failed save operation is now "failed" before the final save commits.
Retirement, export cleanup, and snapshot pinning now also select these
failed rows. They select only rows with `lastFailure` and no retirement
receipt.
- Privacy: each new cause is a closed label or a server-built code. The
server checks it again with an anchored grammar before it writes the
run. No sandbox output, path, or message text is stored.
- The retry count, the retry delay, and the classification of each
failure do not change. No provider turn is added.
