DottaandPaperclip 85dec04677 fix(native): validate active controller durability during eligibility (#20601)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip controls agents while their work runs outside the web
server.
> - A web replacement must retain each controller's durable recovery
state.
> - Modern controllers commit that state to the database before sending
work.
> - Their local controller file is only an external-persistence identity
marker.
> - Disk eligibility still required recovery metadata that can arrive
after a run finishes.
> - This pull request verifies the complete active database authority
instead.
> - It also bounds concurrent source reads so a large history does not
require serial network waits.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #20311, #20584, #20599.

**What happened?**

A live native run can have a complete database controller checkpoint and
no terminal session snapshot yet. The disk-preservation check treats its
local identity marker as a local-only obligation. The check also
resolves selected sources one at a time.

**Expected behavior**

Accept a complete, bound active recovery authority. Refuse missing,
partial, stale or foreign evidence. Keep all execution and enrollment
guards.

**Steps to reproduce**

Use the new active-controller regression. Start a real Runner controller
with the database checkpoint writer. Keep the business run active and
omit its terminal snapshot metadata. The previous check returns a local
obligation even after the full checkpoint commits.

## What Changed

- Require the exact external-persistence marker and a complete decoded
encrypted checkpoint for active runs. Match run, agent, task, session,
Runner and workspace identities. For warm reuse, also permit an older
marker only when its full older checkpoint matches that marker and its
exact earlier successful run has a committed accepted result in the same
company, agent, task, session, Runner and workspace. Keep the current
live writer mandatory. Read the marker again after validation.
- Accept that proof only with its fenced live writer and task binding,
or the existing exact saved recovery snapshot. The saved-snapshot path
still requires the full active journal.
- Keep newer remote workspace authority strict. A malformed reference
cannot fall back to an older prepared reference. Conflicting plugin task
authority remains blocked.
- Resolve selected sources at most eight at a time for read-only
eligibility. Join every started reader before reporting an error. Keep
source order, pagination, predicates and all write paths unchanged.
Offline migration and prestaging still resolve sources one at a time.
- Add real PostgreSQL regressions for active durability, partial and
foreign state, expired ownership, previous prepared-reference state,
post-result state and reader failure joining.

## Verification

- Canonical Node24 preflight passed in74.2s. It built the current Runner
inputs and published the cache. No shared Cargo target or hosted
database was used.
- Genuine active regression RED: the previous check returned true when
false was required. The real checkpoint writer had committed the
complete authority and replaced the local file with the Runner marker.
Treatment passed, including the refusal controls.
- Genuine source-reader RED: sixteen retained pointers used one reader
at a time. Treatment used at most eight and joined all eight when the
first reader failed. With a controlled20ms reader delay and real
PostgreSQL selection, the small fixture changed from497.5ms to85.3ms.
This is a bounded-concurrency proof, not a production speedup
measurement.
- All54 cases in the affected controller migration integration file
passed in76.07s, with no skips. These include existing
failed-controller, archived-controller, inline database and
previous-session preservation cases.
- Server TypeScript passed. The normal merge of current master kept both
changed files byte-for-byte identical to the54-case proof. Final
post-merge focused checks passed two of two in14.83s (52 other cases
intentionally unselected); server TypeScript and module boundaries
passed. Comment-only correction743 removed all new code comments
required by CONTRIBUTING. A later warm-reuse regression reproduced the
remaining false blocker through the real Runner rotateRunIdentity API.
The bounded treatment uses one exact older-run lookup and full
old/current checkpoint validation; it adds no Runner format, release or
lineage service. Final normal-merge head
`c62d6eb1755cf99b6def9563ba69854dba17de42` includes the new0459
baseline. All three focused PostgreSQL cases passed in21.37s (52
existing cases intentionally unselected); fresh server TypeScript and
module boundaries passed. The prior54-case regression evidence is
retained; no full matrix was repeated.
- `git diff --check` passed. Final-head CI passed:56 checks succeeded
and4 were skipped; the separate Paperclip Review advisory was still
queued. All required test, build, typecheck and ci/verify gates passed
on c62. [Final required
workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42868279612).
Fresh [Greptile
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/20601#issuecomment-6774537057)
is5/5 on exact head `c62d6eb1755cf99b6def9563ba69854dba17de42`, with no
open review threads.

```sh
node scripts/agent-preflight.mjs --skip-rust-debug
node --import ./cli/node_modules/tsx/dist/loader.mjs packages/db/src/test-postgres-command.ts pnpm exec vitest run server/src/services/native-runtime/native-controller-migration.integration.test.ts --disableConsoleIntercept
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsc --noEmit
```

## Risks

- This reports preservation evidence. It does not grant attachment,
execution, replacement or enrollment authority. The normal live-owner
and admission gates still apply.
- A partial old or current checkpoint, stale local controller state,
identity mismatch or uncertain owner stays blocked. Warm-marker proof
also rejects a foreign agent, newer source, later completion, rejected
result, per-turn scope or expired current writer. No source, checkpoint,
session, lease, archive or provider state is changed by the check.
- The eight readers add bounded database concurrency during an explicit
eligibility request. There is no new background scan, cache, row filter
or timeout change. Live enumeration time still needs deployed
measurement.
- The plugin task-lease branch uses the producer's environment lease row
ID, as native-session-executor and existing diskless adoption coverage
require. A direct active-eligibility positive for that plugin branch is
a coverage limit; existing mismatch/conflicting-authority checks remain.
The advisory found no must-fix defect, and this does not change the
current tested revision.
- Saved formats and terminal migration behavior remain unchanged. Older
prepared workspace references remain supported. A fully saved result can
still pass before the run-status update, but its entire active
checkpoint must decode.
- The observed staging run finished naturally and became valid on the
existing terminal path during investigation. That observation is not
deployed verification of the new active path.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 (Codex), with reasoning, tool use and code execution. This
runtime does not expose a more specific model ID or context-window size.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 9009fbdedb fix(runner): accept request_human_input payload version forms models send (#20588)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents ask people for decisions with the runner's
`request_human_input` tool, which creates a question or confirmation
card
> - The tool schema required `payload.version` to be the number 1
> - The server ignores the version the model sends and always stores
version 1
> - Some models send `"version": "1"` as a string, so every call failed
with "/payload/version must be equal to constant"
> - This pull request accepts `1` or `"1"`, and lets the model omit the
version
> - The benefit is that the model's natural call creates the card on the
first try, and a turn does not end with no card and no reply

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19405 (adds invocation examples for the same tool; it does not
change validation). Refs #20134 (aligns the same tool's text limits).

**What happened?**
In a chat eval run on master `f4337bb5fb` (OpenCode runner,
`deepseek-v4.1-flash`), the agent called `request_human_input` up to six
times. Each call failed with `Invalid tool input: /payload/version must
be equal to constant`. The agent's reasoning shows it sent `"version":
"1"` and could not produce the number. In one case it then made the card
with `call_api`. In two other cases the turn lost the card. This
happened in `questions-and-approvals.reject-and-revise`,
`goals.align-existing-work` and
`assistant-connections.revoke-personal-grant`.

**Expected behavior**
A version field that the server overwrites must not block the call. The
tool must still reject an unknown version and a questions card without a
question form.

**Steps to reproduce**
Validate `{ interactionKind: "questions", payload: { version: "1",
questionSet: {...} } }` against the live `request_human_input` input
schema. Before this change, validation fails at `/payload/version`.

## What Changed

- `payload.version` in the tool schema accepts `1` or `"1"` and is
optional. Its description says Paperclip stores version 1.
- A questions card no longer requires `payload.version`. It still
requires `questionSet` or `questions`.
- The payload description no longer tells the model to send `version:1`.
- Regenerated the semantic tool contracts, the seeded eval catalog
digest and the protocol manifest with the existing generator.
- Added a regression test: number, string and missing version pass for
live and scenario schemas; version `2` and a payload without questions
fail.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run src/protocol-actions/` in `packages/paperclip-runner`:
red before the fix with the exact eval error (`/payload/version must be
equal to constant`), green after (47 tests).
- Focused runner tests for the tool bridge, semantic tools, mock control
plane, codex semantic results, catalog and semantic tools: 231 passed.
- `node scripts/generate-semantic-contracts.mjs --check`,
`generate-semantic-action-catalog --check`, `generate-protocol-manifest
--check`, `generate-replay-goldens --check`: current.
- `node tests/runner-e2e/source-sdk-public-inputs.mjs <HEAD> --check`:
unchanged.
- Paid chat eval on a temporary branch with this change: see the comment
on this PR.

## Risks

- Low risk. The server already writes `version: 1` into every
interaction payload created by this tool
(`paperclip-runner-tool-authority.ts`), so no stored shape changes.
- Previous-release story: no persisted run, session or launch state
changes. Saved tool receipts keep the input they recorded. A retry with
a different version form under the same idempotency key is a different
input, as before.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), agentic coding with
tool use in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 1b7ec13acb perf(native): default remote sandbox runs to a warm, reusable sandbox for measured harnesses (#20048)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents can run in remote sandboxes (Daytona), where each turn needs
the task's workspace and a runner inside the sandbox
> - With a default environment, every remote turn got a brand-new
sandbox: the whole workspace was uploaded again and a new runner
started, even for a follow-up comment
> - In a paperclip-sized workspace that made a follow-up take 30 s to
first token, against 8–10 s with a reusable warm sandbox
> - This pull request makes an agent that never chose a lifecycle run
warm on a sandbox for the measured harnesses (Codex, OpenCode, Claude),
so a follow-up keeps its sandbox, runner and workspace
> - The default applies only where warm can work: a sandbox provider
that keeps reusable leases, and a managed AI account that supports a
warm session. Everywhere else the run is per-turn, exactly as before
> - The benefit is fast remote follow-ups by default, without
re-uploading a large repository every turn

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
On Daytona, with a fresh paperclip clone as the project workspace, a
follow-up comment took 30 s to its first token. The run log showed
`environment: fresh/created` on every follow-up. It spent 13.3 s in
`workspace_sync.transfer`, a full upload into the new sandbox, and 8–9 s
in `runner.session.resume`.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a Daytona environment with the defaults: lifecycle inherited,
lease reuse off.
2. Run a Codex task in a large repository, then post a follow-up.
3. The follow-up gets a new sandbox, uploads the whole workspace again
and starts a new runner.

**Expected behavior**
A follow-up on the same task reuses the live sandbox, its runner and its
workspace (plan rule 2: no full re-upload per turn).

## What Changed

- **One rule for the default.** `defaultsRemoteSandboxRunToWarm`
(`native-runtime/native-warm-capability.ts`) decides the remote-sandbox
warm default for both the lease (environment view) and the runner
(native session policy), in one vocabulary (runtime backend plus ACPX
agent). It is applied only when no lifecycle was chosen anywhere:
admitted session, environment `runnerLifecycleMode`, or agent
`lifecycleMode`. It holds only when:
  1. the harness is measured (Codex, OpenCode, ACPX Claude);
2. the sandbox provider keeps reusable leases (Daytona, CreateOS and
boxd declare them; E2B, Modal and the built-in `fake` do not); and
3. with a managed AI account, that harness supports a managed warm
session (`supportsManagedNativeWarmSession`: Codex).
- **The harness resolves as the runtime resolves it.**
`resolveWarmProviderSelection` uses
`resolvePaperclipRunnerProviderProfile`, so an omitted `provider` is
Codex and ACPX without an agent is Claude, in both decisions. A config
the runtime would refuse gets no default.
- **Lease side** (`runner-environment-lifecycle.ts`,
`environment-run-orchestrator.ts`): for an eligible run only, the
orchestrator asks the provider before acquisition
(`providerSupportsReusableLeases` in `environment-runtime.ts`: the
acquisition rule, one registry lookup for a plugin provider, no
worker-ready wait). With support, the run-scoped view sets `reuseLease:
true` and forwards the warm idle window to the provider's auto-stop. The
shared environment is never rewritten. Every other run resolves exactly
as on master, without the probe.
- **Runner side** (`native-lifecycle.ts`, `runtime-selection.ts`): the
native policy applies the same rule to the acquired lease
(`reusableLeaseConfigured && effectiveCapabilities.reusableLeases`). If
acquisition downgrades the lease anyway, the run falls back to per-turn;
a default never produces
`runner_warm_environment_requires_reusable_lease`.
- **Idle window.** The remote default uses the window the environment
view forwards to the provider: an inheriting environment's
`runnerIdleTimeoutMs`, then the agent's `idleTimeoutMs`, then 5 minutes.
The sandbox execution target now carries the environment's window
(`runnerIdleTimeoutMs`, an optional field in `adapter-utils`'s execution
target) so the runner and the provider auto-stop agree. An explicit warm
choice and the local default are unchanged.
- Unchanged: explicit agent choices, environments that pin a lifecycle,
plugin-task environments, admitted sessions (`persistedPolicy`), and
local behavior.
- `tests/restart-chaos`: the vCPU budget check counts `--daytona-inherit
--lifecycle default` sandboxes as retained, because they now default to
warm.
- `doc/plans/2026-11-08-large-workspace-speed.md`: the measurements, the
ranked waits, and the gate.

## Verification

- Unit and integration tests, one per rule:
- Rule 1 (provider gate): `native-lifecycle.test.ts` (ephemeral lease →
per-turn), `runner-environment-lifecycle.test.ts` (no reusable leases →
environment unchanged, no warm window),
`environment-runtime-reusable-lease-probe.test.ts` (`fake`, an
undeclared plugin, a declared plugin whose worker does not verify the
reuse methods, and a plugin without a running worker read false),
`runtime-selection.test.ts` ("defaults an agent without a lifecycle on
...": reusable → warm/keep_running; reuse configured on an unsupported
provider → per_turn/destroy_after_turn; ephemeral → per_turn),
`environment-run-orchestrator.test.ts` (probe result decides
`reuseLease` and the forwarded window).
- Rule 2 (explicit configuration wins): explicit per-turn agent, pinned
environment, admitted session, configured `idleTimeoutMs`, managed
Claude per-turn, managed Codex warm; the orchestrator does not probe
when a lifecycle is explicit.
- Rule 3 (omitted provider): `{}` resolves to Codex in the environment
view; `runtime-selection.test.ts` "agrees with the environment view's
lease for ..." feeds the environment view's lease into selection for
Codex, a provider-less Codex agent, OpenCode, ACPX Claude, ACPX without
an agent, and Copilot (per-turn), and checks both decisions agree. A
plugin-task target stays out of the default.
- The two suites that failed on the previous head
(`runtime-selection.test.ts`,
`workspace-recovery-preparation-dispatch.test.ts`) pass locally.
Locally, 6 connector-skill cases in `runtime-selection.test.ts` fail
with `ENOENT .claude/skills/slack/SKILL.md` because this checkout is a
nested worktree; they do not touch this change and pass in CI.
- End-to-end check of this default on Daytona (before the gate was
added; Daytona keeps reusable leases, so the gate does not change this
path): a user-default environment (lifecycle inherited, lease reuse
unset, `--daytona-inherit`), a fresh paperclip clone, built from the
image's source revision with this change (branch measure/remote-warm).

  | | Before (per-turn sandbox) | After (this change) |
  |---|---|---|
  | Follow-up, Codex | 30.4 s | 7.6 s |
  | Follow-up, Claude | about 30 s | 11.0 s |
  | First follow-up after an idle K1, Codex | 45.9 s | 20.3 s |
  | First follow-up after an idle K1, Claude | 38.3 s | 18.3 s |

The run-log reuse records show the follow-ups reusing the workspace,
environment, runner and provider session, with no
`workspace_sync.transfer`. First turns still upload the workspace once
(14.8 s and 26.1 s). Every sandbox was cleaned up.
- Daytona restart chaos wave (K1/K2/K4 with a mid-run comment,
inheriting environment, agents with no lifecycle, runner image built
from this branch): wave `w-20261110T171438-s20048`, seed 20048, on
b7f6243d60 with image `paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:76a33275…6fe29`
(built from this branch by the `image_only` runner workflow; runner
content id `ed503454…a479` matches every later commit here, which change
only server, adapter-utils types and tests). `--daytona-inherit
--lifecycle default --adapters codex,claude --workloads A1,C1 --triggers
time,comment --faults K1,K2,K4 --tasks 6 --concurrency 3`.
- **6/6 tasks pass** (R1–R6 and T), all 6 crossed a restart; cells:
Codex A1 K2, Codex A1 K4, Claude A1 K4, Claude C1 K1, Claude C1 K4,
Codex C1 K2 at the mid-run comment. **No task needed Retry** (R3 n/a on
every task; one Claude task recovered automatically from
`process_lost`). No open signatures, 0 speed breaches.
- The default applied: the R6 sweep found 6 retained reusable leases
(one per task, Daytona keeps them) and no orphan or leaked sandbox; the
environment was deleted cleanly.
- Timings (Daytona, first turns, n=3 each): TTFT p50 Codex 21.9 s,
Claude 31.0 s. Restart recovery p50/p95: Codex 10.5 s / 29.6 s (n=3),
Claude 8.8 s / 23.9 s (n=2). Warm follow-up TTFT has no clean sample in
this wave (both follow-ups were crossed by a fault), so the follow-up
comparison above (30.4 s → 7.6 s Codex, ~30 s → 11.0 s Claude) remains
the speed evidence; no separate per-turn chaos wave was run.
- An earlier attempt, `w-20261110T170357-s20048`, never started tasks:
the first sandbox from the new image stayed `creating` past the
harness's 300 s Codex qualification bound (Daytona building the new
snapshot). It left one sandbox that the harness reported after deleting
the environment; the rerun on the cached snapshot is the wave above.
- The idle-window fix (9a74116082) landed after the wave; it changes
only runs whose inheriting environment sets `runnerIdleTimeoutMs`, which
this wave's environment does not.

## Previous-release story

No persisted state changes shape. A session admitted per-turn before
this change keeps its saved policy (`persistedPolicy` wins) until a new
session starts. A run in flight at the cutover keeps its admitted
lifecycle for recovery (`admittedLifecycleMode` wins in the environment
view).

## Cost and opt-out

- **Cost:** after a turn, the sandbox and its warm runner stay up for
the warm idle window (the environment's `runnerIdleTimeoutMs`, else the
agent's `idleTimeoutMs`, else 5 minutes). Then the controller suspends
the runner, and the provider auto-stop follows the same window. One idle
window per active task.
- **Opt-out:** set the agent's lifecycle to "Turn by turn"
(`lifecycleMode: per_turn`), or set the environment's
`runnerLifecycleMode` to `per_turn`. Either wins over this default.

## Reuse scope, restart and saved work

- **One lineage per sandbox.** The Daytona plugin keys a reusable lease
by the agent plus the execution workspace (or issue). Another task never
gets a sandbox holding a different task's files, and subtasks still get
fresh workspaces from the project base, so they get their own sandbox.
The workspace is adopted only after its stamp matches the host's.
- **After a restart,** a warm sandbox is reattached or replaced through
the existing warm recovery and owner fencing. A sandbox with a live
owner is never claimed twice. The Daytona chaos wave above checks this.
- **No lost work.** Each turn's workspace copyback
(`workspace_finalize`) runs at the end of the turn, before any idle
suspend, as for per-turn runs.

## Risks

- **Cost:** an idle sandbox stays up for the warm idle window (5
minutes) after a turn, then suspends. Only on providers with reusable
leases.
- **Probe cost:** one plugin-registry lookup before acquisition, only
for runs the default can apply to. No wait for a worker: a provider
whose worker is not running yet reads as unsupported, so that run is
per-turn.
- **Known gap (pre-existing, not widened):** with an explicit agent warm
choice on an inheriting environment that sets `runnerIdleTimeoutMs`, the
provider gets the environment's window while the host uses the agent's,
as on master.
- **Restart behavior on warm remote sandboxes** uses the existing warm
recovery paths. The Daytona chaos wave above checks K1, K2 and K4.
- Sessions admitted per-turn before this change stay per-turn until a
new session starts.
## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file editing, test execution, Daytona measurements).

DottaandClaude c37eacbee3 fix(native): Retry re-finalizes a saved result that ran out of finalization retries (#20578)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs save an accepted result. Then a finalizer applies that
result to the task.
> - Finalization has its own budget of 3 failed attempts (#20555). When
the budget runs out, the coordinator goes to `terminal_failure` with
`native_finalization_retry_exhausted`.
> - For a provider-succeeded run, the task then rests `in_review` with a
board recovery card. The task shows "resolved" and offers no Retry. The
user is stuck.
> - The ordinary Retry is also wrong here: it starts a new provider run,
which repeats work the agent already finished.
> - This pull request adds two things. First, contention failures on
such a result get two longer automatic delays before the board gets the
task. Second, when the state is still exhausted, the task offers Retry,
and that Retry applies the same saved result again.
> - The benefit: fewer tasks need a Retry, and when one does, Retry
works and does no duplicate provider work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20555 (it names this gap under Risks).

**What happened?**
In restart-chaos wave `w-20261110T044338-s20385`, task t03 ended with a
succeeded run, an accepted result, and a coordinator in
`terminal_failure` / `native_finalization_retry_exhausted`. The issue
stayed `in_review` with a board-owned `active_run_watchdog` card and
`canRetry=false`. #20555 stopped the early exhaustion. A real exhaustion
still leaves the same stuck state. Coordinators that older builds
already left in this state are stuck the same way.

**Expected behavior**
Transient finalization failures recover by themselves when that is safe.
When they do not, the task offers Retry. That Retry re-finalizes the
saved result. It does not start a provider run and does not charge a
provider attempt.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Let a native run save an accepted result and end `succeeded`.
2. Make each finalization of that result fail until the budget of 3 runs
out.
3. Before this fix, the task presentation is `resolved` with
`canRetry=false`, and the board card has no action that applies the
result. The new test
`server/src/__tests__/native-exhausted-finalization-retry.test.ts`
reproduces this.

**Paperclip version or commit**
master at c58356003f (after #20555).

## What Changed

- `native-run-finalizer.ts` (`recordRetryableFailure`): when the budget
runs out on an accepted result of a provider-succeeded run, and the
cause is contention (`status_cas_exhausted` or
`side_effect_planning_failed`), the coordinator stays
`retryable_failure`. It tries again after 2 minutes, then after 10
minutes, each with a fresh budget. Each delay is recorded once in
`recoveryHistory` (`automatic_finalization_backoff`). After both delays,
the old terminal path runs. Deterministic causes (for example
`native_finalization_invalid`) and workspace-scope failures are
unchanged. The existing deadline worker (`native-result-commit-work`)
runs the retry, so no new timer or poll is added.
- New `native-runtime/exhausted-finalization-retry.ts`:
- `exhaustedNativeFinalizationCondition()`: one SQL predicate for
"succeeded native run, accepted result, coordinator `terminal_failure`
with `native_finalization_retry_exhausted`, no lease, no successor".
- `rearmExhaustedNativeFinalization()`: under the task lock, reopens the
same coordinator (`arbitrating` or `workspace_finalizing`), records
`exhausted_finalization_retry` in `recoveryHistory`, resolves the board
card (`handed_back`), and resets `finalizationFailureCount` to 0. It
sets a 30 s fallback `nextAttemptAt`, so the deadline worker finishes
the job if the process stops first.
- `refinalizeSavedNativeResult()`: runs `finalizeNativeRun` for the same
run with `preserveProviderAttempt: true`. A failure goes through the
finalizer's normal bounded budget.
- `task-interruption-presentation.ts`: the run read adds
`nativeFinalizationRetry` from that predicate. A succeeded run with this
flag shows `state: "failed"`, `canRetry: true`. It also adds
`nativeFinalizationRetryPending` (`savedResultRetryPendingCondition()`:
coordinator not committed or terminal, with an
`exhausted_finalization_retry` entry). While it is true the task shows
`state: "working"` with `recoveryStep: "finishing_recovery"`, so the
user sees the Retry took effect. Done or cancelled tasks, user gates,
and ordinary runs are unchanged.
- `task-retry.ts` (`admitTaskRetry`): for a succeeded native run in the
exhausted state, Retry re-arms the coordinator instead of creating a
provider retry. It writes a `coalesced` `task_retry` receipt bound to
the same run with strategy `finalize_result` (an existing strategy
value), joins any unadmitted Retry intent to it, and logs
`issue.retry_requested` with `strategy: "finalize_result"`. The
idempotency key still returns the same receipt on replay. A later click
with a new key, after an earlier saved-result Retry of the same run
(still finalizing, or applied), joins that Retry with another coalesced
`finalize_result` receipt and starts no provider work.
- `routes/issues.ts` (`POST /issues/:id/retry`): after the receipt
commits, it starts `refinalizeSavedNativeResult` for that run instead of
the provider Retry dispatch.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: documents the automatic delays and the
re-finalizing Retry.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/native-exhausted-finalization-retry.test.ts` (4 tests):
- Exhausted state reports `state: "failed"`, `canRetry: true`. Retry
re-arms the coordinator, writes a `finalize_result` receipt and an
`issue.retry_requested` activity row, and replays idempotently. A second
click with a new key while pending, and a third after commit, join the
same Retry; no provider Retry wake exists. While pending, the task shows
`working` / `finishing_recovery`. Re-finalization commits, and the task
shows resolved. The run count for the task stays 1, the coordinator
`attempt` is unchanged, the run stays `succeeded`, and no board card
stays active.
- Old-shape row (no `finalizationFailureCount`, `attempt: 3`, already
terminal): the same Retry works with no migration.
- Re-finalization that fails again: the coordinator goes to
`retryable_failure` with a fresh count of 1, then to `terminal_failure`
after the budget, and the task again shows `canRetry: true`. Nothing is
lost silently.
- Contention failures (failpoint `status_projection`): two automatic
delays (2 min, 10 min) with the task status unchanged, then the board
Retry, which commits with no new run.
- Red/green: with only the new module and test applied (finalizer,
presentation, task Retry, and route reverted), all 4 tests fail
(`canRetry` false; no automatic delay).
- `npx vitest run src/services/task-interruption-presentation.test.ts`
adds unit cases: the flag offers Retry; ordinary succeeded runs stay
resolved; ordinary failed runs keep `canRetry: true`; done tasks stay
resolved.
- Also passing: `native-finalization-retry-budget`,
`native-finalization-recovery`, `native-run-finalizer-telemetry`,
`task-interruption-query`, `interrupted-preparation-restore-retry`,
`native-result-commit-work`, `workspace-recovery-admission`,
`workspace-recovery-preparation-gates`,
`deferred-execution-receipt-work`.
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json` passes.
- Not run: the full local suite (`pnpm verify` selects about 2,450 files
for these shared modules; CI covers it), and no live restart-chaos wave.

## Risks

- Previous-release story: coordinators saved by older builds in
`terminal_failure` / `native_finalization_retry_exhausted` qualify by
phase and code. The count is optional. Nothing is migrated. Older rows
do not get the automatic delays; they get the working Retry.
- Automatic delays add at most two extra finalization rounds of the same
saved result, only for contention causes, only for provider-succeeded
accepted results. During the delays the task keeps its prior status, as
it does during the normal 30 s retries. Supersession by a newer run is
still checked first on every attempt.
- The re-finalizing Retry applies the agent's saved result after a
person may have looked at the task in review. It uses the normal status
arbiter and CAS. Done and cancelled tasks, other assignees, and newer
runs refuse it.
- No change before `turn.start`: all new work is on the finalization,
presentation, and Retry paths.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 98ce93dd4e Choose project storage from compatible environments (#20587)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Projects supply repository files to agent runs through core staging
or a storage plugin.
> - A storage plugin's default claim silently attached new projects even
when their agents used a different environment.
> - An environment name or driver type does not establish shared storage
access. The existing binding and task-driver contracts do.
> - This pull request groups creation choices by that contract and
selects storage from the creator's effective environment.
> - The benefit is a visible, validated choice and a clear error before
an incompatible managed workspace operation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes #20459.

Related: #20156 covers a separate provider-failure diagnostic. The PR
search found no other fix for #20459. ROADMAP.md has no duplicate
project-creation change.

## What Changed

- Show **Available in** when configured environments require different
project storage. Each option names the environments that can use the
same storage owner. Hide the selector when all choices are compatible.
- Derive compatibility from repository staging and managed binding
ownership. Local, SSH, and sandbox environments use core staging.
Managed storage requires a registered task driver from the same
installed storage plugin. Separate storage plugins remain incompatible.
Unknown plugin contracts and the fake sandbox are excluded.
- Follow the creating agent's environment, or the person's primary
agent, then the instance default and local fallback. Apply managed-only
and forced Kubernetes policy. The product has no separate user or
company environment-default field today.
- Add a company-authorized discovery endpoint and an optional creation
`environmentId`. Validate the choice again on save. Store the storage
owner without overriding agent run environments. Preserve explicit API
storage choices and existing project ownership.
- Keep the hidden repository-free private-task project independent of
environment availability. Submit the observed storage owner as
`expectedStorageProviderPluginId` so a changed contract fails at save
without setting a workspace policy. Instance task-isolation defaults
stay inherited.
- Reject an incompatible managed workspace before a provider operation.
Name the storage and selected environment in the error. Add regression
tests, API documentation, creation-story fixtures, and minimal
corrections to obsolete map text.

## Verification

- **102 tests passed across 7 files:** project environment integration,
installed storage policy, repository persistence, project environment
routes, project creation telemetry routes, OpenAPI, and
NewProjectDialog. Run with `node node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run
server/src/__tests__/project-environments.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/project-workspace-provider.integration.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/project-repositories-persistence.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/project-routes-env.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/project-goal-telemetry-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts
ui/src/components/NewProjectDialog.test.tsx --silent`.
- The review fixes cover both archived-default private-task cases and
changed-storage rejection. With both instance isolation flags enabled, a
new core repository project keeps a null policy and resolves to an
isolated Git worktree. The complete affected set passes all 102 tests.
- The CI query-error policy failure was fixed by using the shared query
view. The form and shared query-view suites pass **24 tests**, including
cached choices during a transient refetch failure. `node
scripts/check-query-error-rendering.mjs --enforce --summary` reports
zero findings.
- CI exposed stale SDK source hashes and heartbeat fixtures that paired
plugin storage with Local. Refreshed exactly four shared-source hashes
with the maintained generator (runtime pins unchanged). All **53 SDK
privacy/source-proof tests**, including real built SDK output, pass. All
**7 corrected managed-storage heartbeat scenarios** pass; the fixtures
declare the owning plugin's task environment and substitute transport at
the existing execution seam.
- Shared and UI TypeScript checks pass. The UI production build passes.
`pnpm check:token-gates`, `node scripts/check-maps.mjs`, `node
scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs`, and diff checks pass.
- Tested UI states: compatible choices, incompatible groups, default
within a group, manual override, create failure, loading, discovery
failure and retry, and an unavailable default. Tests use the production
form and existing design tokens.
- The integration tests use real isolated PostgreSQL on macOS arm64 with
Node 26.12.0. They cover user/agent defaults, storage persistence,
policy restrictions, company and authentication denials, and rejection
before a provider call. Discovery uses saved configuration and makes no
worker or provider requests.
- Local verification limits: `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` stop
in unchanged adapter-utils code because the installed ACPX types lack
`inheritProcessEnv`. A direct server check also finds an unchanged AI
SDK type-version mismatch. The existing heartbeat test `inherits the
instance default environment across companies while preserving explicit
agent overrides` times out at line 518 on both this change and
unmodified master with the same dependencies. The full `pnpm test:run`
attempt passed all six chat shards (1,948 tests), then the Git workspace
expiration suite reported 14 failures. I stopped that broad run. Two
sampled failures reproduce on unchanged master with the same
`unknown_worktree_git_files` refusal; the other expiration failures were
not independently compared. A later broad workspace-preparation run also
hit workspace validation failures and was stopped; the seven corrected
fixture scenarios pass independently. These limits do not establish a
full local suite pass. Hosted CI remains required.
- Initial missing-package and loopback-denial failures were resolved by
repairing isolated dependency links, building the SDK, and running
database tests with loopback access. No deployed or live-provider
execution is claimed.

## Risks

- Creation defaults now follow the effective environment. A plugin's
`defaultForProjects` claim alone no longer selects storage. This is the
intended behavior change.
- Compatibility covers repository project storage. It does not guarantee
arbitrary host paths, retained-workspace moves, adapter/image support,
credentials, or worker readiness. Matching provider configs cannot prove
a cross-plugin storage contract.
- A person's primary agent supplies the personal default because there
is no separate personal environment setting. An unavailable configured
default requires a valid explicit choice or a configuration repair.
- No migration runs. Existing projects keep their storage owner. This
change does not detach existing managed data or provide a storage
migration.
- Full local verification has the limits listed above. CI and standard
Greptile review are pending.

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

DottaandPaperclip 1c78d023c6 perf(native): narrow backup eligibility to selected runs (#20599)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Server replacement checks whether retained native sessions still
depend on local harness data.
> - This check joins selected task sessions, runs, backup stamps, and
durable backup records.
> - PostgreSQL can start from backup leases and scan an issue's full run
history before applying the selected-run condition.
> - A measured instance spent 9.56 seconds in that selector and exceeded
an 8-second statement limit.
> - This pull request selects the exact current run identities first,
then applies the existing lease and backup checks.
> - The same receipt validation and eligibility decisions remain in
place.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Startup eligibility timed out while selecting native harness backup
obligations. The plan scanned historical runs for each lease before
checking the task session's selected run.

**Expected behavior**

The selector should use the selected run identities without scanning
unrelated run history. It must return the same session, scope, company,
and receipt flag.

**Steps to reproduce**

Use a database with retained native task sessions, many historical runs
on the same issues, and version-two backup stamps. Run startup
eligibility with an 8-second statement timeout. The lease-first plan can
exceed that limit.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The local baseline is `d0c30e69a9cea912db7c5290c5d585fdd63ec228`.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted server with PostgreSQL.

## What Changed

- Keep `AS MATERIALIZED` as an intentional join-order fence: build
selected task-session and last-run identities before joining backup
leases.
- Keep only narrow identity columns in that materialized set. Read the
JSON receipt flag through the selected run's primary key after the lease
and current-backup filters, so profiles for unrelated identities do not
widen the intermediate rows.
- Preserve company and agent bindings, exact normalized-session text
comparison, current-backup exclusion, scope deduplication, ordering, and
the 100-row page.
- Add real PostgreSQL regressions for full ordered-row equivalence,
nullable JSON receipt flags, malformed and uppercase session bindings,
cross-company rows, duplicate stamps, page tails, and invalid receipts.
- Existing saved state carries forward under the same validation rules.
No schema or persisted identity changes are required.

## Verification

- The two focused PostgreSQL regressions passed locally. Command: `pnpm
exec vitest run
server/src/services/native-runtime/native-harness-backup-obligations.integration.test.ts
--silent`.
- Worktree preflight passed. The focused regressions (2/2) and `node
server/scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs` passed on final head `c739353b22`
after rebase.
- One bounded read-only pair on PostgreSQL 17.11 returned the same 54
complete ordered rows: baseline 9,564 ms, candidate 298 ms (32.1 times
faster). The plan changed from lease-to-issue-history scans to
selected-run primary-key lookups and a hash join.
- A synthetic PostgreSQL 18.1 fixture already chose an efficient
baseline plan. Across five alternating warm pairs, its median was 104.6
ms before and 109.4 ms after. This neutral control used 22,800 runs,
14,100 leases, 3,173 task sessions, and 5,460 backups; all 54 complete
rows matched. The empty control also matched.
- These measurements cover the selector. A later read-only
assembled-call probe on a newer serving release substituted only this
selector: the selector took 544 ms for 54 rows, while the full
eligibility call took 56.1 seconds and still reported a controller
migration blocker. Other checks remain outside this PR; this PR does not
claim to bring the whole request within its deadline.
- Required CI and fresh review results will be recorded here before
handoff.

## Risks

- Materialization adds a selected-identity pass. Databases that already
choose an efficient plan may see little benefit, as the local neutral
control shows.
- Pagination and receipt validation must stay exact. The regression
crosses the 100-row boundary and checks that an invalid final scope
still blocks eligibility.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact model ID and context window are
unavailable in this session. The agent used reasoning, code editing,
shell execution, PostgreSQL diagnostics, and GitHub tools.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 580ec41110 fix(workspaces): run private tasks parked in a personal project (#20589)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A private task without a project is parked in its owner's "My
private tasks" project
> - The spec says an issue-level grant can expose a task without
exposing its containing project
> - Workspace setup for a run also required project read on the task's
project
> - So an agent that could read its private task still failed at setup,
before any work, when the task was in "My private tasks"
> - This pull request accepts task access for that personal project when
the project supplies no workspace files
> - The benefit is that a person can make a chat or task private and the
agent can still work on it, without gaining access to the person's other
private tasks

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**
A person made their chat with the CEO agent private. The chat moved into
the person's "My private tasks" project. The next CEO run failed at
execution setup in about one second with "Project is private and the
actor is not an access member."

**Expected behavior**
The CEO can work in a private chat (or on a private task) that it can
read. The CEO does not get access to the person's other private tasks.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Open a chat with an agent and make the chat private (the chat has no
project).
2. Send a message to the agent.
3. See the run fail at setup with `deny_project_private` on the person's
"My private tasks" project.

## What Changed

- `assertTaskWorkspaceExecutionAccess` marks the task's own project as a
container when it is not also the selected workspace or source project.
- `assertTaskWorkspaceSourceProjectAccess` accepts a
`deny_project_private` decision for such a container only when it is a
personal "My private tasks" project with no project workspaces. Task
read is already authorized earlier in the same check.
- Shared private projects, personal projects with workspaces, workspace
and source projects, and low-trust boundary denials are not changed.

## Verification

- Red then green: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-project-access.test.ts` (new test `runs a private
task in its owner's personal project without granting that project`
fails on `master` with the eval's error; 12 passed with the change). The
test also checks that the personal project stays unreadable, that a
shared private project still needs membership, and that a personal
project with a workspace still needs membership.
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/workspace-preparation-history.test.ts
src/__tests__/project-workspace-root-provenance.test.ts
src/__tests__/task-workspace-child-trust.test.ts
src/__tests__/task-workspace-source-copy-privacy.test.ts
src/__tests__/privacy-production-review.test.ts` (81 passed).
- `tsc --noEmit -p server`: no errors in the changed files.

## Risks

- The change relaxes one authorization check. It applies only to the
task's own personal project, only after task read is allowed, only for
the private-project denial reason, and only when that project has no
project workspaces. A project read through any other path is not
changed.

execution in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 accf22076f fix(search): apply task privacy to artifact results (#20595)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Private tasks are visible only to the people and agents that have
access
> - Company search already filters task results by the caller's task
read condition
> - Artifact results (agent documents, work products and attachments) in
search, and the company artifacts list, did not use that condition
> - So a company member could find a private task's document title and
snippet through search
> - This pull request applies the same task read condition to artifact
results
> - The benefit is that private task outputs stay private in search and
in the artifacts list

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**
An agent saved a document on a private task. A different company member
without access to that task searched for a word in the document. The
search returned the document as an artifact result with a snippet.

**Expected behavior**
Search and the artifacts list show artifacts only from tasks the caller
can read.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a private task and let an agent save a document on it.
2. Sign in as a company member who cannot read the task.
3. Search for a word in the document, or open the company artifacts
list.
4. See the private document in the results.

## What Changed

- `company-search.ts`: artifact counts and artifact rows apply
`options.issueReadCondition`.
- `routes/companies.ts`: `GET /companies/:companyId/artifacts` passes
the caller's `issueReadSqlCondition` to the artifacts service.

## Verification

- Red then green: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/company-search-service.test.ts -t "private task
artifacts"` (fails on `master` with the private document in the
outsider's results).
- Red then green: `npx vitest run
src/__tests__/company-artifacts-service.test.ts -t "caller can read"`.
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/company-search-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/company-search-extract-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/company-search-extract-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/company-artifacts-service.test.ts` (all pass).
- `tsc --noEmit -p server`: no errors in the changed files.

## Risks

- Low risk. The read condition is the same one task results use. Callers
with full access (local board, instance admin, privacy mode off) get
`true` and see no change.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 491dfa1c6d fix(tool-gateway): make gateway client token creation person-only (#20581)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Tool gateways let external MCP clients use a company's tools with a
gateway client token
> - A gateway client token is shown only once, to the caller that
creates it
> - Since delegated connection management (#17737), an agent can create
a gateway client token for its responsible person
> - In that case the agent receives the one-time token value, and it can
repeat the value in chat
> - This pull request makes gateway client token creation person-only
> - The benefit is that the one-time token value goes only to the person
who creates it in the gateway UI

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17737

**What happened**
A person asked the CEO agent in chat to replace the token of a gateway
client. The agent called `POST
/api/tool-gateway/gateways/{gatewayId}/tokens` under delegated
authority. The response gave the agent the new token value, and the
agent put the value in its chat reply.

**Expected behavior**
An agent does not receive a gateway client token value. A person creates
the token on the gateway's Tokens page and gives it to the client. The
agent tells the person where to do this.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Give an agent delegated connection management for a responsible
person with `tools:admin`.
2. As the agent, call `POST
/api/tool-gateway/gateways/{gatewayId}/tokens` (for example through
`call_api`).
3. See a 201 response that contains the new token value.

## What Changed

- `POST /api/tool-gateway/gateways/:gatewayId/tokens` returns 403
`gateway_token_requires_person` to agent callers before it creates a
token. The message is final. It gives the Tokens page path
(`/<prefix>/apps/gateways/<gatewayId>/tokens`) and tells the agent not
to ask for or repeat token values. The response also has `tokensPath`.
- Board (person) callers are not changed.
- The API catalog entry for the route now says that it is person-only.
- Existing agent-issued tokens are not changed. Runtime issuer and
responsible-user checks still apply to them. The integration tests now
seed such tokens directly to keep that coverage.

## Verification

- Red: the new integration test `never returns gateway client token
plaintext to agent callers` fails on `master` (the agent `call_api`
result is 201 with the token value).
- Green: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/connection-management.integration.test.ts -t gateway` (24
passed). The test also checks that no token row is created for the
agent, and that a person session still gets a 201 with the token.
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/tool-gateway.test.ts
src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts` (152 passed).
- `npx vitest run src/services/native-runtime/runner-api.test.ts` (2090
passed).
- `tsc --noEmit -p server`: no errors in the changed files.

## Risks

- Behavior change: agents can no longer create gateway client tokens. A
workflow that relied on that now gets a 403 that sends the person to the
Tokens page. Agents can still revoke tokens and manage gateways under
delegated authority.
- Low migration risk: no schema change, and existing tokens keep
working.

execution in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 d5c1f48180 perf(native): index the backup lease lookup by scope digest (#20571)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native harness backup expiration removes old session backups. Before
it removes a backup, it finds the environment leases that reference the
backup root
> - This lookup reads leases by run ID, by the
`metadata.nativeHarnessBackup.sessionScopeSha256` digest, or by the
identity's own lease ID, in one `OR` query
> - The metadata arm has no index. So PostgreSQL reads every lease of
the company, and the metadata of each lease, for each lookup
> - On a hosted test database, this statement ran 21,736 times at a mean
of 158 ms in one window. After other fixes, it still ran 2,364 times at
a mean of 121 ms
> - This pull request adds a small partial expression index on the
digest
> - The benefit is that each lookup reads a few index entries instead of
all company leases. The query text and the result do not change

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The lease lookup in `backupDependencies` in
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-harness-backup-expiration.ts`.
`reconcileBackup` calls it for each backup root when the expiration
worker loads or checks a root.

**Subsystem affected**
Native harness backup expiration and the `environment_leases` table
schema.

**Current behavior**
The query is `company_id = $1 and (heartbeat_run_id in (...) or
metadata->'nativeHarnessBackup'->>'sessionScopeSha256' = $n or id =
$m)`. The run arm and the ID arm have indexes. The digest arm has no
index. A `BitmapOr` plan needs an index for every arm, so the planner
reads all company leases and evaluates the JSON expression on each row.
Lease metadata holds sandbox details, so these reads are large.

**Proposed behavior**
The partial index `environment_leases_native_backup_scope_idx` keys
leases by the digest. It holds only leases that have a backup stamp.
Every arm of the `OR` now has an index, and the planner combines three
index probes. The SQL and the returned lease IDs do not change.

**Reason and benefit**
This statement was in the top ten by total database time on a loaded
hosted database. A local reproduction shows a query that is more than
6,000x faster and reads 9 buffers instead of about 436,000.

**Breaking changes**
None. The API, the lease-matching rules and the results do not change.

## What Changed

- Add the partial expression index
`environment_leases_native_backup_scope_idx` on
`(metadata->'nativeHarnessBackup'->>'sessionScopeSha256')`, where that
value is not null.
- Add migration `0459`. It uses `CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY IF NOT
EXISTS`. The migration runner runs it as a top-level statement, the same
as migrations 0454–0458.
- Add a regression test. It checks the lease-matching rules: run leases,
a lease with only the backup stamp, and the identity's own lease match.
Another digest, a non-string stamp, a top-level key with the same name,
and the same digest in another company do not match. The test also
checks that the custom plan and a forced generic plan of the generated
SQL use `BitmapOr` with the new index and no sequential scan.
- Add `scripts/benchmark-environment-lease-backup-lookup.ts`. It
captures the SQL that the real service generates and measures it with
and without the index.
- Document the index in `doc/DATABASE.md`.

## Verification

Cause and thesis. The cost comes from the one `OR` arm without an index,
which forces a scan of all company leases and their metadata. Thesis: an
index on the digest lets the planner use a `BitmapOr` of three index
probes, so the cost no longer depends on the company's lease count. The
results stay identical. The benchmark confirms the thesis.

I did not change the SQL. With the index, the existing `OR` query
already gets the index plan. A `UNION` rewrite would not help without
the index, because the digest arm would still scan the company.

Local SQL benchmark:

```sh
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx ../scripts/benchmark-environment-lease-backup-lookup.ts
```

Fixture (synthetic): one company with 100,000 leases with 4 KiB of
incompressible metadata each. 30% of the leases have a backup stamp for
another session. A second company has 20,000 leases. The table is 678
MB. The backup root has 3 run leases, 1 lease with only the stamp, and 1
identity lease. The same digest is also in the other company. Embedded
PostgreSQL 18 on an Apple laptop, which other work loaded heavily. The
hosted database is Neon with different compute, so absolute times are
local SQL measurements only.

The script measures in the order: no index, index, no index, index. Each
measurement has 2 warmups and 11 samples of `EXPLAIN ANALYZE` execution
time and of the full `reconcileBackup` call.

| Measurement | Without index | With index |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Lease query execution, run 1 | median 196 ms (138–562 ms) | median
0.010 ms (0.007–0.017 ms) |
| Lease query execution, run 2 | median 185 ms (144–295 ms) | median
0.030 ms (0.020–0.045 ms) |
| `reconcileBackup` wall time (includes file reads), runs 1 and 2 |
median 188 ms and 216 ms | median 1.4 ms and 4.2 ms |
| Plan | `Gather > Seq Scan` | `Bitmap Heap Scan > BitmapOr` of
`heartbeat_run_idx`, the new index and `pkey` |
| Buffers | 365,880 hit + 70,050 read | 9 hit |

These numbers are from head `65bd9d7ac6`. The final head only renumbers
the migration to 0459 after rebases; the SQL, the index and the service
code are the same. Two earlier runs on the same fixture, SQL and index
gave 236–425 ms without the index and 0.023–0.033 ms with the index. The
machine had heavy load from other work, so the spread without the index
is wide. Output check: in all four measurements, the service returned
the same 5 lease IDs, and the complete query rows were equal.

Index build (`CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY` from the migration file):
0.8–2.4 s for the 678 MB table over all runs. Index size: 3.4 MB with
30% of leases stamped.

Tests:

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/native-harness-backup-expiration.test.ts`: 109 passed. The
new test failed when I dropped the index before the plan check
(confirmed red), and it passes with the index.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations`: passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck` and `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm verify`: it asks for broader coverage (exit 2) because of the
new script. See the CI results for this head.

## Risks

- Migration time. A concurrent index build reads the full
`environment_leases` table and does not block writes. Locally, the build
took 0.8–2.4 s for 678 MB. The time grows linearly with the table size.
I did not time it on a production-size clone. I expect a few seconds to
tens of seconds on a large instance, which is in the 1–2 minute budget.
This estimate is not proven.
- If the build stops, PostgreSQL can leave an invalid index. The
migration runner repairs invalid concurrent indexes when it runs again,
and `IF NOT EXISTS` makes a rerun safe.
- The index expression must stay textually equal to the query
expression. If someone changes the JSON path, the planner cannot use the
index. The new test catches this for custom and generic plans.
- The index is partial, so ANALYZE does not collect statistics for the
expression. The planner uses the default equality estimate. On the large
fixture and in the small test, the planner still selects the index plan.
A company with very few leases can still get a sequential scan, which is
cheap.
- Each lease write with a backup stamp writes one more small index
entry. The write cost is small.
- This change does not reduce how often the worker calls the lookup. It
makes each call cheap. The other digest lookups in backup retention
(`native-harness-backup-retention.ts`) and session retention checks can
also use the index.
- Previous-release story: no persisted state changes. The index is
derived from existing lease metadata.
- The hosted improvement is not verified until deployment. After
deployment, compare a new query-statistics window for this statement.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, used through Claude
Code with tool use (shell, file edits, local PostgreSQL benchmarks).

DottaandClaude 7368a0b15c fix(recovery): re-queue native runs that fail on a transient database fault before provider work (#20561)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native (Paperclip Runner) runs prepare a task, pass a final dispatch
gate, and only then start a provider.
> - A native run can fail before any provider work starts. Examples are
a Postgres serialization or deadlock error (`40001`, `40P01`) at budget
admission, or a transient database error during setup.
> - Today such a run ends `adapter_failed` or `setup_failed`. `failRun`
writes the "no provider work" record only for legacy runs, and the
bounded retry paths do not retry these codes for native runs. The
release then opens the native hold
(`native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`), and a person must click
Retry.
> - The goal is that 0% of tasks need a Retry click after a restart or a
storage/DB fault. Duplicate provider work is worse than a Retry click,
so the fix must only act when the server can prove no provider work
started.
> - This pull request records that proof for native runs and sends a
transient database failure to the existing uncharged, bounded
`interrupted_preparation` retry lane.
> - The benefit is that these runs re-queue by themselves, and runs with
any sign of provider work keep today's hold.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

In restart-chaos waves with database pressure, a native run failed at
budget admission with exhausted serialization retries (`40001`/`40P01`).
The run event history had no `native.process_start_requested` event.
About 15 s later the server recorded "Automatic recovery stopped" with
cause `native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`. The task stayed
blocked until a person clicked Retry.

**Expected behavior**

A native run that failed before any provider work, on a fault that
clears by itself, re-queues automatically. The attempt is bounded and
does not spend the failure budget. A persistent failure still ends
failed, with a working Retry.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native (Paperclip Runner) task.
2. Make budget admission or a setup database write fail with SQLSTATE
`40001` or `40P01` until its bounded retries are exhausted.
3. See the run end `adapter_failed`/`setup_failed`, the task go to
`blocked`, and a `native_continuation_requires_reconciliation` recovery
action that waits for Retry.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at 902f376796.

## What Changed

- `run-failure-cause.ts`: new durable record
`resultJson.nativePreDispatchFailure = { version: 1,
providerWorkStarted: false }`, and
`isNativePreDispatchTransientFailure`. The predicate needs a native
failed run, a generic code (`adapter_failed`/`setup_failed`), the
record, and a transient database `failureCause` (`40001`, `40P01`,
`55P03`, `57P01`-`57P03`, `53300`, `08xxx`, postgres.js connection
codes).
- `run-completion.ts`: `failRun` and `failRunSetup` write the record for
a native run only when all of these are true:
- the caller reports `nativeDispatchMayHaveStarted: false` (an omitted
value means "may have started");
- the run was not stopped during the failure, and has no terminal native
coordinator failure;
- the run's `native_run_finalizations` coordinator, if any, is still the
unclaimed row that runtime selection creates (`observed`, attempt 0, no
lease owner, no controller, no result). Any executor claim, in any
generation, disqualifies;
- the run has no recorded process (`processPid`, `processGroupId`,
`processStartedAt`), no `sessionIdAfter`, and no `native_run_results`
row. Process fields copied from a warm predecessor (marked by
`runnerProfileJson.inheritedProcessIdentityRunId`) are not this run's
own process and do not disqualify; the run's own start events are still
checked;
- the run's whole event history has no execution-start evidence. This
uses the canonical `hasNativeExecutionStartEvidence` helper from restart
recovery (`native.process_start_requested`,
`native.process_identity_recorded`, `adapter.invoke`,
`tool.execution.started`, or any runner event with a source event ID).
The helper is unchanged; the earlier inline copy matched it exactly and
was removed.
- `run-completion.ts`: a recorded transient failure closes the unclaimed
coordinator as `terminal_failure` (`native_pre_dispatch_failure`),
because `hasPendingRunCleanup` otherwise holds the successor on it. It
then calls the existing `scheduleBoundedRetryForRun` with `retryReason:
"interrupted_preparation"`. An answered-interaction continuation keeps
its own retry lane. The storage-outage lane is unchanged.
- `heartbeat.ts`: passes `nativeDispatchMayHaveStarted`. It is true once
native dispatch started, once the dispatch gate entered the executor
(also when the gate then fails), while native ownership is held, or for
a restart-recovery or native-lease resume.
- No change to the native hold in
`modules/wake-queue/adapters/postgres.ts`. The release already returns
early when a queued/scheduled successor exists, so a scheduled retry
never opens the hold. See Risks for why the hold stays for the exhausted
and no-successor cases.

## Verification

- `heartbeat-native-predispatch-retry.test.ts` (assembled heartbeat,
mock native backend): budget admission fails once with `40001`. The run
records the proof, one uncharged `interrupted_preparation` successor is
scheduled, no recovery action opens, and the promoted retry succeeds
once. A failure after the dispatch gate entered the executor gets no
record and no such successor.
- `run-completion.test.ts` (embedded Postgres):
- native pre-dispatch `40P01` in `failRun` writes the record and
schedules `interrupted_preparation`; the release suppresses immediate
recovery;
  - native `setup_failed` on `40001` does the same;
- a run with `native.process_start_requested` in its history gets no
record and no retry;
- `nativeDispatchMayHaveStarted: true` and an omitted value (older
caller) get no record and no retry;
- a claimed native coordinator gets no record and no retry; an unclaimed
one is closed and the run re-queues;
- a run with a recorded process or provider session gets no record and
no retry;
  - a non-transient cause gets the record but no retry.
- `heartbeat-retry-scheduling.test.ts`: the real scheduler chains two
`interrupted_preparation` retries for a recorded native failure. The
first is due at once. `failureRetries` stays 0. A spent lane returns
`retry_exhausted`, queues nothing, and the run stays `failed`.
- `wake-queue/adapters/postgres.test.ts`: with a scheduled successor,
the release opens no recovery action and the task stays `in_progress`.
Without one, today's hold opens (`blocked`,
`native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`, Retry available).
- `run-failure-cause.test.ts`: the predicate is false for a row without
the record (older server), for `providerWorkStarted: true`, for a
non-transient cause, a non-generic code, a legacy run, and a cancelled
run.
- Command: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-native-predispatch-retry.test.ts
src/services/heartbeat/run-failure-cause.test.ts
src/services/heartbeat/run-completion.test.ts
src/modules/wake-queue/adapters/postgres.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-retry-scheduling.test.ts` (all new cases pass).
`tsc --noEmit` for `server` passes. `pnpm verify` selected 2451 files
because `heartbeat.ts` is a hub; I stopped it and rely on CI for the
broad suite.
- Live path unproven: I did not run a restart-chaos wave for this
change.

## Risks

- A wrong "no provider work" record could cause duplicate work. The
record needs several independent facts (no gate entry, no resume claim,
no claimed coordinator, no process, session or result, no
execution-start evidence in the whole history). Any read error keeps the
hold.
- Rows saved by an older server have no record. They keep today's hold
and manual Retry. Nothing is migrated. A run resumed after a deploy is a
restart-recovery or lease resume, so it gets no record.
- The normal path gains no I/O. The evidence reads run only on the
failure path, and only when dispatch was never entered.
- The native hold is not skipped when no successor exists. Skipping it
would send the run to the generic immediate-recovery tail, whose new run
does not carry this lane's counter. That could loop without a bound. So
a spent lane, and a crash between the failure write and the retry
scheduling, still end in today's hold with a working Retry.
- The lane is bounded by `INTERRUPTED_PREPARATION_RETRY_MAX_ATTEMPTS`
(12) with backoff after the first attempt, and it never revives a chain
whose failure budget is already spent.

DottaandClaude b5f62b3384 docs(rules): correct the scope of the API route and company-scope rules (#20596)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - `rules/*.mdc` holds the architecture rules that reviewers and agents
apply to a change
> - Pull request #20585 added two rules: API route expectations and
company-scope exceptions
> - Review found that both rules state more than is true for the current
code
> - A rule that is too broad makes reviewers flag correct code and can
make an agent add a wrong check
> - This pull request corrects the scope of both rules and fixes one
stale pointer
> - The benefit is rules that match the code they describe

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20585

**Issue type**

Incorrect contributor documentation.

**Where is the issue?**

`rules/api-route-expectations.mdc`,
`rules/company-scope-exceptions.mdc`, `AGENTS.md` section 8, and
`.agents/skills/honeycomb-tracing/SKILL.md`.

**What's wrong?**

- The API route rule said that every route checks company access.
Instance-level routes such as `health.ts`, `liveness.ts`, `ready.ts`,
`public-mcp.ts` and `org-chart-svg.ts` do not, and must not.
- The API route rule told reviewers to flag each status code outside a
list of seven. `429` and `503` are correct in some routes.
- The company-scope rule said that it lists the only instance-wide data.
`user_sidebar_preferences` is instance-wide and was not in the list.
- The company-scope rule said that it applies to new files that its
`globs` cannot match.
- The `honeycomb-tracing` skill pointed to `AGENTS.md` for the Telemetry
workflow. That text is now in `rules/data-paths.mdc`.

**Suggested fix**

Limit each rule to what is true, and repoint the skill.

## What Changed

- The API route rule and `AGENTS.md` section 8 now apply to routes that
read or write company data.
- The API route rule names the instance-level routes and says not to add
a company check to them.
- The status code list is now a list of common codes. Reviewers flag an
incorrect code, not an unlisted code.
- The company-scope rule lists the sidebar company order as an
instance-wide exception, in the text, the `globs`, and the Greptile
scope.
- The company-scope rule says "known data" and no longer claims to match
new files.
- The `honeycomb-tracing` skill points to `rules/data-paths.mdc`.

## Verification

- Read the two rules and confirm that each named file exists. A local
script checked the `globs` and the route names.
- Confirm that `.greptile/files.json` is valid JSON and that its scope
matches the rule `globs`.
- No source code changed. No test suite ran locally.

DottaandClaude 88c1500fac docs(agents): add a core rule that points to the module-boundaries rule (#20598)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - `AGENTS.md` section 5 holds the core engineering rules that apply to
every change
> - The section had no rule about which module owns a behavior
> - The repository already has a repository-wide rule for this,
`rules/module-boundaries.mdc`
> - Agents see that rule only as one line in the list of rule headers
> - This pull request adds a core rule that states the principle and
links to that rule
> - The benefit is that module ownership has the same weight as the
other core rules

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20585

**Issue type**

Missing contributor documentation.

**Where is the issue?**

`AGENTS.md` section 5.

**What's wrong?**

- The core engineering rules did not say that provider-specific behavior
stays with the module that owns it.
- The core engineering rules did not point to
`rules/module-boundaries.mdc`.

**Suggested fix**

Add a core rule that states the principle and links to the existing
rule.

## What Changed

- Added rule 4 to `AGENTS.md` section 5, "Keep behavior with its owning
module". The rule links to `rules/module-boundaries.mdc`.
- An earlier commit on this branch added a copy of the pstack
`principle-boundary-discipline` skill. A later commit removed it. The
net change is `AGENTS.md` only.

## Verification

- Open `AGENTS.md` section 5 and follow the link in rule 4.
- Run `git diff origin/master --stat`. Only `AGENTS.md` changes.
- No source code changed. No test suite ran locally.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is documentation only.

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic), in Claude Code with tool use.
- `claude-fable-5-2`.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 6ed6b0754b perf(recovery): probe recovery source runs and stale-continuation runs by key (#20584)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The workspace recovery worker saves the files of failed runs. After
each pass, it reads the time of its next deadline
(`nextWorkspaceRecoveryAt`)
> - That read finds the source run, its finalizer and its leases with
`id::text = evidence->>'runId'`. A text comparison cannot use a key.
Each exhausted hold read every run, finalizer and lease of its company
> - On a hosted staging database this statement used about 4 s per call
(21 calls in the sample window). The cost grows with exhausted holds
multiplied by the company's run count
> - The ownership reconciler's stale-continuation check
(`checkStaleDroppedComments`) has the run lookup shape that #20412 fixed
in the lost-wake check: one OR across the legacy context and the native
column
> - This pull request compares the run id as a canonical uuid, and it
gives the stale-continuation check the per-binding run probes from
#20412
> - The benefit is the same recovery decisions with index-driven work:
11 s to 93 ms for the deadline read on a representative local fixture

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20412

**What happened?**

The workspace recovery deadline read was one of the most expensive
statements that remained on a hosted staging database after the fixes in
#20393, #20405, #20386, #20412, #20391 and #20400. Query statistics
showed about 4 s per call. The statement text starts with `select case
when (issue_recovery_actions.…`.

The statement evaluates the retained-source fallback and stop-proof
conditions for each recovery action. These conditions read the source
run (`heartbeat_runs`), its finalizer (`native_run_finalizations`) and
its leases (`environment_leases`) with `x.id::text =
evidence->>'runId'`. The cast prevents the use of the primary key.
PostgreSQL reads all rows of the company for each exhausted hold. The
worker's discovery (`retainedWorkspaceCandidates`) uses the same
conditions.

The stale-continuation check matched a task's runs with
`(context_snapshot->>'issueId' = issue OR native_issue_id = issue)`.
With the OR, PostgreSQL can join runs only by company. It also hashed
every wake request of the company for the stale-wake test.

**Expected behavior**

Each condition uses a key lookup. The worker and the reconciler make the
same decisions for the same saved state.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Seed a company with a deep run history and a few thousand workspace
recovery actions. Let a few hundred be exhausted holds that stay active.
2. Call `nextWorkspaceRecoveryAt`.
3. The call takes seconds, and its time grows with holds multiplied by
runs. The benchmark below shows this.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Baseline: `8d2bf78323`.

**Deployment mode**

Server with PostgreSQL. The local proof uses disposable PostgreSQL 18.1.
Staging uses hosted PostgreSQL.

## What Changed

- `workspace-recovery-fallback-discovery.ts`: the source run, finalizer
and lease probes compare `id =
canonicalExecutionUuid(evidence->>'runId')`. The helper returns null
unless the text is the canonical lowercase uuid form. Thus the probe
matches exactly the rows that `id::text = evidence->>'runId'` matched.
The helper already exists in `execution-identity.ts`.
- `nextWorkspaceRecoveryAt` and worker discovery use these conditions.
Their SQL changes only in these probes.
- `checkStaleDroppedComments` reads in two stages. The first stage keeps
comments that a stale-continuation cancellation dropped and that no open
wake carries. The second stage applies the run probes. The run probes
use the `taskRuns` helper from #20412, which is now shared by both
checks. The stale-wake lookup ends with `offset 0`, so it stays a
per-comment index probe.
- The final `order by c.created_at limit N`, the projection and the
delivery check after the query do not change.
- Add `scripts/benchmark-recovery-status-checks.ts`. It loads the
changed files from an explicit baseline commit and from the working
tree. Before it records time, it compares every changed condition for
every recovery action, the complete service results and the positional
SQL rows.
- Add tests: each run binding in the stale-continuation check (native,
legacy, live run on either binding, wrong agent, wrong company, failed
run, run outside the comment time, closed by a person, open wake). Also
a test that a hold with a non-canonical saved run id is not discovered,
as before.
- Document both checks and the benchmark in `doc/DATABASE.md`.
- No schema change, index, migration, or new startup work.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/ownership-reconciliation-report.test.ts
src/services/workspace-recovery-fallback.test.ts
src/services/workspace-recovery-stop-proof.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-held-comment-wake.test.ts --maxWorkers=1` (from
`server/`).
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx
../scripts/benchmark-recovery-status-checks.ts --baseline-ref=8d2bf78323
--samples=7`

Benchmark setup: PostgreSQL 18.1 (embedded, local), `shared_buffers` 128
MB, `work_mem` 4 MB. All data is synthetic, with md5-hex filler. Each
fixture has two companies (full size and a quarter). Two warmup rounds,
then 7 timed samples for each arm, in alternating order. Each sample
runs the real service function and asserts the same result. These are
local SQL measurements on a shared machine, so the spread is wide.

Workspace recovery deadline (`nextWorkspaceRecoveryAt`). About 8% of
actions are exhausted holds that stay active. Some actions save a
non-canonical (uppercase) run id. Before timing, the benchmark compares
six conditions (fallback pending, due time, due; re-arm pending, due
time, due) for every action of the fixture.

| Fixture | Runs / actions / pending holds | Baseline median (min–max) |
Treatment median (min–max) | Shared buffers |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| small | 6,500 / 255 / 36 | 50.9 ms (47–76) | 6.8 ms (6–8) | 19,133 →
1,075 |
| representative | 78,750 / 3,813 / 588 | 11,098 ms (8,277–12,790) | 93
ms (35–145) | 3,493,417 → 24,902 |
| deep history | 191,250 / 3,813 / 588 | 40,146 ms (31,190–52,521) | 40
ms (36–230) | 13,491,792 → 26,911 |

Stale-continuation check (`checkStaleDroppedComments`). The fixture is
pessimistic: more than half of recent comments on done tasks have a
stale cancelled wake. The table shows statement time from `EXPLAIN
ANALYZE` with default settings, and one statement run with
`enable_nestloop = off` (the company-only hash plan). The result is
checked as equal in both modes.

| Fixture | Runs / recent comments / reported | Statement, baseline →
treatment | Hash plan, baseline → treatment |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| small | 3,792 / 76 / 24 | 3.2 → 1.5 ms | 5.5 → 3.8 ms |
| representative | 75,406 / 1,125 / 200 (limit) | 34 → 26 ms | 66 → 25
ms |
| busy hour | 152,031 / 5,625 / 200 (limit) | 328 → 153 ms | 2,302 → 165
ms |

- Neutral path: the complete stale-continuation service call stays about
the same (busy hour 750 → 655 ms median). The per-comment delivery check
after the query (`deliveredQueuedCommentIds`) is most of that time. This
change does not touch it.

## Risks

- Low risk. Every predicate keeps the same logic. Only the probe shape
and the evaluation order change. The benchmark compares each changed
condition for every recovery action, including non-canonical saved run
ids, and the complete results of both checks.
- Previous-release story: no saved state, schema or identity changes.
Holds saved by older releases are read with the same rules, so they
carry forward unchanged.
- Rows with the same comment `created_at` have no defined order, as
before.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, used through Claude
Code with tool use (shell, file edits, local PostgreSQL).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 be0d100a8b fix(native): settle cleanup-gate refusals after a completed turn without a dead-end Retry (#20572)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs execute a provider turn, then close the provider session
and prove it stopped
> - When close cannot prove that the old runner, provider and tools
stopped, the runner holds a cleanup gate
(`native_session_cleanup_quarantined`) that refuses the next session on
that task
> - A run finished its provider turn and saved its work. A server
restart had left one tool callback without a saved result, so close
could not prove the drain, and the gate refused the run's own same-run
recovery 30 seconds later
> - The task then showed "Couldn't finish this attempt" with a Retry
button, but the retry route refuses this error code with 409. The saved
error text told an operator to act
> - This pull request makes the task projection, the execution blocker,
the executor and the retry route agree, and replaces the operator text
with plain wording
> - The benefit is that finished work no longer looks like a failed
attempt, and the UI never offers a Retry that the server refuses

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A remote native run completed its provider turn and saved its comments
and documents. A server restart during the turn left one semantic tool
callback without a saved result. Session close then reported
`native_session_settlement_incomplete` (runner suspended, provider drain
unproven), and the runner kept an operator-required cleanup gate. The
same-run disposition recovery was refused at admission, and the run
ended `failed` with `native_session_cleanup_quarantined`.

**Expected behavior**
The task should show its real state (here, waiting on a child task). It
should not show a failure banner or a Retry that the server refuses. No
text should ask an administrator to act.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a remote native run and restart the server while a tool
callback runs.
2. Let the resumed turn complete without a semantic result, so a
same-run recovery is scheduled.
3. Observe the refusal at admission, the "Couldn't finish this attempt"
banner, and a Retry that returns 409.

**Paperclip version or commit**
master at d0057ee384 (remote native runner, Daytona sandbox).

## What Changed

- Add `server/src/services/native-runtime/completed-turn-cleanup.ts`. It
holds one predicate for "a cleanup-gate refusal after this run's own
provider turn completed" and the plain user wording. It reads only the
saved `errorCode` and `runnerProfileJson.sessionCheckpoint`.
- `task-interruption-presentation.ts`: the projection never sets
`canRetry: true` for a cleanup-quarantined run, which matches
`routes/agents.ts` and `canRetryStoppedRun`. A quarantine after a
completed turn projects as `resolved` only while the task waits on
unresolved blocker tasks, so the task shows that wait. Without such a
wait, the missing task disposition stays visible. Other quarantined runs
show a plain settling message without Retry. The list query computes the
completed-turn fact in SQL.
- `native-session-executor.ts`: the refusal keeps its permanent, named
code, its hold and its ownership, and does not replay provider work. The
next action uses plain wording, and names the saved work after a
completed turn.
- `execution-blocker.ts`: show plain wording for this code instead of
the stored error text, also for rows that earlier releases saved.
- Runner error message and retry-route conflict message use plain
wording.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: document how the cleanup gate settles
and how the task shows it.

## Verification

- Red before the fix, green after:
- `server/src/services/task-interruption-presentation.test.ts` "native
cleanup quarantine presentation" (2 failed before: `canRetry: true`,
`state: failed`).
- `server/src/__tests__/task-interruption-query.test.ts` "reads a
quarantine saved after a completed turn as settled work" (real Postgres,
row in the previous release's saved shape; before: `state: failed,
canRetry: true`).
- `server/src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts`
"settles a cleanup refusal after a completed turn" (before: operator
next action and board ownership).
- `server/src/services/explicit-native-continuation.test.ts` "shows
plain wording for a cleanup refusal saved with the earlier operator
text" (before: stored operator text).
- The four files pass in full: 1851 tests.
- `tsc --noEmit` passes for `server` and `packages/paperclip-runner`.
- `pnpm verify` returns exit 2 (a global doc input changed), so required
CI supplies the broad coverage.
- No UI files changed, so token gates and UI tests do not apply.

## Risks

- Previous-release story: no persisted shape changes. Runs that earlier
releases quarantined carry forward. The new rules read existing fields,
so these runs show the new projection without a migration.
- The code stays permanent and named. No automatic provider replay is
added.
- A quarantine whose turn did not complete keeps its board-owned
recovery. Only its text and its Retry visibility change.
- The runner still keeps the in-process cleanup gate until environment
release proves the stop. Existing lease termination receipts
(`acknowledgeRemoteStop`) clear it. This PR does not change the runner
drain rule for a callback that a restart orphaned. That is a separate
follow-up.

## Model Used

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 d82e5efeb9 perf(ui): cut repeated reads while a task is open (#20563)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The board UI keeps an open task current with a shared company
websocket and with polling fallbacks
> - In a busy company, one open task sent 35 to 60 API requests in 17
seconds, and each request waits on the database
> - Most of these requests were repeated reads: task summaries 22 times,
the task run list 11 times, task browsers 6 times, and the 60 KB agent
list 6 times
> - The cause is not the open task. Other agents' run and task events
invalidate company-wide lists on every 300 ms batch, and the task view
polls runs and browsers on fixed intervals even while the websocket is
open
> - This pull request spaces company-wide refreshes, and it lets the
websocket replace run and browser polling while it is connected
> - The benefit is about 79% fewer reads from an open task in a busy
company, with the same polling fallback when the connection is down

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17608
Refs #9627

**What happened?**

An open task in a busy company sent the same reads again and again. In
one 17-second visit, the UI requested `issues/summaries` 22 times, the
task live runs 11 times, the task browsers 6 times, and the company
agent list 6 times. The company live runs and the task's child lists
(`parentId`, `createdFromIssueId`, `descendantOf`) were requested 2 to 3
times each.

**Expected behavior**

A busy company must not make an open task refetch company-wide lists on
every event batch. While the live connection is open, the UI must use
events, not fixed fast intervals, for task runs and browsers. The UI
must keep its polling fallback when the connection is closed.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open a task in a company where other agents run work.
2. Keep the task open for 17 seconds.
3. Count the API requests in the browser network panel.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Based on master at bd30ef8510.

## What Changed

- `ui/src/lib/query-invalidation-batcher.ts`: Add a minimum spacing
option to the invalidation batcher. A quiet lane flushes after the
normal batch interval. A busy lane flushes at most once per spacing
window. Add `createLaneRoutingBatcher`, which sends each invalidation to
one of two batchers by query key.
- `ui/src/context/LiveUpdatesProvider.tsx`: Route company-wide keys to a
5-second ambient lane. These keys are task lists and summaries, the
agent list, heartbeats, company live runs, sidebar badges, the
dashboard, costs and the company activity feed. All other keys, such as
task detail, comments, task runs and browsers, keep the 300 ms lane.
- `ui/src/lib/live-runs-cache.ts`: While the company connection is open,
a successful active run list or active run polls every 15 seconds
instead of every 1 or 3 seconds. Run lifecycle events already refresh
these queries, and progress events patch them.
- `ui/src/hooks/useTaskBrowsers.ts`: While the company connection is
open, stop browser polling when no browser can change state. Keep the
3-second poll for a starting, running, idle or stopping browser, and
when the connection is closed. The two callers pass the task's company.
Socket open and reconnect already reconcile this active query.
- `ui/src/lib/task-browsers-refresh.ts` and `LiveUpdatesProvider.tsx`:
On `browser.*` activity for a task, refresh that task's browser list. If
a read is in flight, one shared follow-up read runs after it settles, so
an older empty result cannot stop polling. Two views of the same task
share that follow-up. A list that no view observes becomes stale, so a
returning view reads it. When the connection opens or resyncs, each
browser list with a read in flight also gets one follow-up read, because
missed activity is not replayed.
- `doc/DATABASE.md`: Document the ambient lane and the new polling
contract.
- Tests: Add a fan-out test that replays a busy-company event stream for
17 seconds against an open task, plus unit tests for spacing, lane
routing, key classification, the run interval and the browser interval.
Update the recovery test for the connected active-run interval.

## Verification

Request count over a fixed 17-second open window
(`ui/src/context/LiveUpdatesProvider.fanout.test.ts`). The test mounts
the reads that an open, running task keeps active. It replays a busy
company: one run status event every second and one task activity event
every 0.7 seconds, none for the open task. Fake timers make each run
deterministic, so the spread is zero. The baseline used the same test
with master's batcher, run interval and browser interval.

| Read | Before | After |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Task summaries (sidebar) | 24 | 5 |
| Company agent list | 17 | 5 |
| Company live runs | 17 | 5 |
| Child list: parent | 24 | 5 |
| Child list: created from | 24 | 5 |
| Child list: descendants | 24 | 5 |
| Task live runs | 18 | 2 |
| Task browsers | 6 | 1 |
| **Total** | **154** | **33** |

The baseline numbers match the staging capture well (summaries 22,
browsers 6).

- `pnpm exec vitest run src/context/LiveUpdatesProvider*.test.*
src/lib/live-runs-cache.test.ts
src/lib/query-invalidation-batcher.test.ts
src/hooks/useTaskBrowsers.test.ts src/lib/task-browsers-refresh.test.ts
src/hooks/useTaskPluginPanels.test.tsx
src/components/task-side-panel/TaskSidePanel.test.tsx
src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx` (in `ui/`): all pass.
- `pnpm exec tsc --noEmit -p ui`: no errors in `ui/src`.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: clean.
- Tests also prove these cases:
- With the connection closed, task runs still poll every second and
browsers every 3 seconds.
- With a quiet company, one event refreshes the summaries and child
lists after one normal batch.
- `browser.started` on the open task refreshes its browsers. The same
event on another task does not.
- A browser that starts during a slow empty read appears after that read
settles (`ui/src/lib/task-browsers-refresh.test.ts`). This test fails
when the refresh joins the older read.
- Two views and repeated events during one read cause one follow-up
read. This test fails without the shared queue.
- A list cached while the task was closed is read again when a view
returns.
- A connection that opens during an older empty browser read causes one
more read, so a browser that started while the socket was closed
appears. This test fails without the follow-up.
- Task detail, comments, task runs, browsers, attention and another
company's keys stay on the fast lane.
  - An unrecognized active result keeps the fallback interval.

This is a local request-count proof. It does not include a timed browser
journey on a deployed instance.

## Risks

- Company-wide lists refresh at most once every 5 seconds from live
events, so they can be up to 5 seconds late. After 5 quiet seconds, an
event refreshes them in about 300 ms. Own mutations invalidate their
queries directly, so they do not wait.
- An active task run refreshes from events. Fields without an event,
such as output silence, can be up to 15 seconds late while the
connection is open. Reconnect still reconciles missed events.
- A browser that appears without activity is not shown until the next
activity or reconnect. Every browser lifecycle step logs activity on the
task, so this case is not expected.
- No server, schema or API change.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 8e332ccb5e fix(evals): name stale SDK pins and fix four chat-eval harness defects (#20579)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The chat feature eval catalog (`tests/runner-e2e`) runs real chat
journeys against a real server and grades the saved state, the run's
tool events and the rendered reply
> - The full-cohort run on master `f4337bb5fb` had 12 failures that come
from the harness, not from the product or the model
> - Six plugin and secrets cells stopped in 7–9 s, before the server
started, because the SDK public source pins were stale
> - Four more cells failed on harness timing, a first-visit prompt, or a
read receipt that ignored a dedicated tool
> - This pull request fixes those four harness defects and adds a cheap
guard that names stale SDK pins
> - The benefit is that these cells now report on the product and the
model again

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19614, #20550, #20453, #20417, #20483

**What happened**

On master `f4337bb5fb`, these chat eval cells failed for harness
reasons:

- `plugins.configure-plugin`, `plugins.disable-plugin`,
`plugins.install-plugin`, `plugins.use-plugin-tool`,
`routines.plugin-managed-routine` and `secrets.least-scope-delivery`
stopped before the server started. The source SDK privacy scan refused,
because `tests/runner-e2e/source-sdk-public-inputs.json` did not match
`packages/shared/src`. #20550 and #20362 already resynced the pins on
master. The pins are current at `ce1ee9e89f`.
- `agent-chat.track-delegated-work` and
`navigation-preferences.edit-profile`: the reply was correct and had the
right link. The case read the rendered links immediately after the runs
settled, before the reply rendered, so it recorded no links.
- `inbox-search.archive-done` and `inbox-search.restore-archive`: setup
completes five tasks, so the GitHub star prompt from #20453 opened over
the chat and blocked the composer.
- `status-cards.explain-card`: the follow-up run read the deleted source
with `get_task` and received a 404. The reply said so. `apiReadStatuses`
counted only `call_api` reads, so the grader recorded no unavailable
read.

Why the existing pin check did not stop the drift: `ci / Runner support
suite` runs the source SDK tests and is part of the required `ci /
verify`. On #19614 it passed at 03:43Z on a merge ref from before #20417
(06:12Z) and #20483 (08:14Z). #19614 merged at 14:02Z without a new CI
run on current master. After that, the suite failed on every PR until
#20550. So the check exists and fires; the gap was a stale green result,
and the failure message was opaque (`SDK public source proof
unavailable`).

**Expected behavior**

- A change to a pinned SDK input without a pin refresh fails with the
changed files and the command that fixes it.
- Cases read rendered links only after the saved reply renders.
- The eval browser is a returning user's browser that has already seen
the star prompt. The product does not change.
- A dedicated task read tool (`get_task`, `list_task_documents`,
`read_task_document`, also when namespaced) counts as a read of the
record it names, with the status its receipt reports.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run `chat-features.runner-opencode.local.<case>` for one of the cases
above on master `f4337bb5fb`.
2. Read `result.json` and `snapshots/chat-catalog-observation.json` in
the evidence bundle.
3. See the failures described above.

## What Changed

- `tests/runner-e2e/source-sdk-public-inputs.mjs`: add
`staleSdkPublicInputs(root)`. It compares the registry with `git ls-tree
HEAD` for every pinned input (the roots and build inputs that the pins
file lists), and returns each changed, unpinned or removed file.
- `tests/runner-e2e/source-sdk-public-inputs.test.mjs`: a test fails
when the committed pins do not match the committed tree. The message
names the files and gives the `--write` command. The Runner support
suite runs it for every `packages/**` change. A synthetic test covers
changed, unpinned and removed inputs.
- `tests/runner-e2e/chat-catalog-domains/runtime-handoffs.ts` and
`identity-profile.ts`: call the existing `waitForRenderedReply` before
they read rendered links.
- `tests/runner-e2e/chat-returning-browser.ts` (new) and
`chat-catalog-flow.ts`: inside the flow's failure boundary, before
setup, mark `paperclip.github-star-prompt.seen` in the eval browser. An
init script covers later documents of the app origin, and the open page
is marked directly. A test checks that the key equals
`STAR_PROMPT_SEEN_KEY` in `ui/src/components/GitHubStarPrompt.tsx`.
- `tests/runner-e2e/chat-catalog-domains/api-read-receipts.ts`: bind
dedicated task read tools by the digest of the `call_api` input that the
server builds for them (`taskBridgeApiRequest`). The result must carry
the same `apiOperationId`. Other tools, other records, mismatched
receipts and unpaired results do not count.
- Bump `oracleVersion` in code and descriptor for every case that uses
`api-read-receipts.ts` (shared grader change) and for
`navigation-preferences.edit-profile`. Add
`internal-comment-reference.ts` to the source files of the two cases
that now import it.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run --config tests/runner-e2e/vitest.config.ts`
(whole config): 11301 passed; 1 local-only failure in
`controller-replacement-smoke.test.ts` (server spawn, no changed
imports).
- `pnpm exec vitest run --config tests/runner-e2e/vitest.config.ts
--testTimeout=180000 tests/runner-e2e/chat-catalog-domains
tests/runner-e2e/chat-catalog-contract.test.ts
tests/runner-e2e/chat-catalog-consistency.test.ts
tests/runner-e2e/chat-returning-browser.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run --config tests/runner-e2e/vitest.config.ts
source-sdk`
- `node tests/runner-e2e/source-sdk-public-inputs.mjs $(git rev-parse
HEAD) --check` reports `changed: false`.
- Red checks: with the `f4337bb5fb` registry, the new pin test fails and
names 15 inputs. Without the new waits, the two rendered-reply tests
fail. A regrade of the retained `explain-card` run events now gives the
follow-up run `unavailable: true, live: false` and the first run `live:
true`.
- Paid runs of the affected cells
(`chat-features.runner-opencode.local.*`):
- Run 42852698879 (head `d54c04d5f0`): `track-delegated-work`,
`restore-archive`, `explain-card`, `configure-plugin` and
`plugin-managed-routine` pass. I read each reply and saved state.
`track-delegated-work` now records the rendered `/COM/issues/COM-2`
link. `explain-card` records `laterUnavailable: true, laterLive: false`
from the follow-up `get_task` 404.
- `plugins.install-plugin` now starts its server (the pin refusal is
gone). It fails a later grading check, `truthful-installation-handoff`:
the reply sends the person to the plugin settings page but does not name
the package. This is outside this PR.
- `inbox-search.archive-done`: the star prompt no longer blocks the
composer, and the query is sent. The agent then archives the 501 Done
tasks one at a time (about 2 s each, 57 in the 240 s window), because
only the per-task archive route exists. This is outside this PR.
- `navigation-preferences.edit-profile` did not start in that run (the
AWS credentials step timed out). Run 42857020103 (head `2f0b80aa84`):
pass. The agent write gets 401, the reply links
`/COM/company/settings/instance/profile`, and the person follows the
rendered link and saves the name.

## Risks

- Low risk. Test harness only; no product code changes.
- The receipt change counts more reads as record reads. It only adds
dedicated reads bound to the exact record id and operation, so a grader
that needs a read can pass on a genuine `get_task` read. The affected
cases have new oracle versions.
- The star prompt is not tested by any chat catalog case. Product e2e
tests for the prompt do not use this flow.

tool use (shell, file editing, test execution).

DottaandClaude 84007892e9 refactor: move AGENTS.md section detail to docs and rules, add a bug-fixing section (#20585)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - `AGENTS.md` is the instruction file that each human and AI
contributor reads before a change
> - Pull request #20557 shortened the file, but several sections still
held detail that applies to only some changes
> - The scoped-rules section told agents to read each matching rule in
full, and most changes match five rules
> - The core engineering rules mixed three product invariants with
process conventions
> - This pull request moves that detail to the docs and to scoped rules,
and adds a section on how to fix a bug
> - The benefit is a 211-line file that states what applies to every
change and points to the rest

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20557

**Issue type**

Outdated or unclear contributor documentation.

**Where is the issue?**

`AGENTS.md` at the repository root, and `rules/`.

**What's wrong?**

- The scoped-rules section made agents read the full body of each
matching rule before a change. The rule bodies total about 47 KB.
- Sections 4, 6, 8, 9 and 10 repeated detail that belongs in
`doc/DEVELOPING.md`, `doc/DATABASE.md`, a route rule, `DESIGN.md` and
`CONTRIBUTING.md`.
- Section 4 had a database reset command for `data/pglite`. That
directory does not exist.
- Section 5 had seven rules. Four of them were process conventions or
path-specific detail.
- The file did not say how to fix a bug.

**Suggested fix**

Make the rule headers the index. Move section detail to the document or
rule that owns it. Keep only the three invariants in section 5. Add a
bug-fixing section.

## What Changed

- The scoped-rules section now tells agents to list the rule headers
with one `grep` command. Agents read a rule body only for a design
decision in its area, when the description is not sufficient, or when a
reviewer cites it.
- `rules/README.md` says that each `description` must state the required
behavior in one sentence.
- `rules/pull-request-review.mdc` has a description that states its
requirements.
- Section 4 (dev setup) and section 11 (pull requests) now point to
`doc/DEVELOPING.md` and `CONTRIBUTING.md`.
- The schema change workflow moved from section 6 to `doc/DATABASE.md`.
- The API and auth expectations moved from section 8 to the new
`rules/api-route-expectations.mdc`.
- Section 9 links to `DESIGN.md` for design rules. `AGENTS.md` no longer
tells contributors to run `pnpm check:token-gates`.
- Added section 10, "Fixing a Bug": reproduce the error, write a failing
test, write the fix, see the test pass, and verify the fix.
- Section 5 now has three rules: company scope, contract
synchronization, and the control-plane invariants.
- The company-scope exceptions moved to the new
`rules/company-scope-exceptions.mdc`.
- Removed the strategic-docs rule. The plan-doc convention moved to the
repo map. The artifact rule moved to section 7.
- Removed rule 7. Five code comments that cited `AGENTS.md §5.7` now
cite `rules/data-paths.mdc`.
- Regenerated the SDK public source pin, because one of those comments
is in `packages/shared/src/crash-points.ts`.
- Added both new rules to `.greptile/files.json`.
- The API route rule applies only to routes that read or write company
data. Its status code list is a list of common codes.
- The company-scope rule lists the sidebar company order as an
instance-wide exception.
- The `honeycomb-tracing` skill now points to `rules/data-paths.mdc` for
the Telemetry workflow.

## Verification

- Open `AGENTS.md` and confirm that each link resolves. A local script
checked this.
- Run `grep -E '^(description|globs|alwaysApply):' rules/*.mdc` and
confirm that each rule prints a description.
- Run `node tests/runner-e2e/source-sdk-public-inputs.mjs <HEAD>
--check`. It passes locally.
- `packages/shared/src/crash-points.test.ts` passed locally before the
rebase onto `master`.
- Five source files changed in comments only. No other test suite ran
locally.

## Risks

- An agent that reads only rule descriptions can miss a detail in a rule
body. Reviewers still apply the full rules.
- Pull requests and the definition of done are now sections 11 and 12.
Sections 1 to 9 keep their numbers.
- Dated plan documents under `doc/plans/` still cite `AGENTS.md §5.7`.
They are historical records.
- Pull request #20565 also changes `AGENTS.md`. The second one to merge
needs a conflict fix in section 1 and section 2.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 d0c30e69a9 fix(storage): abort a snapshot upload a restart cut off once its save attempt is superseded (#20542)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Remote workspaces save their files as encrypted snapshots in object
storage. Snapshots over 16 MiB use S3 multipart uploads.
> - A server restart can cut off a snapshot upload in the middle of an
`UploadPart` request.
> - The server aborts a multipart upload only in-process, on an error or
an abort signal. A SIGKILL can never do that. On SIGTERM, the drain step
timed out while the store held the part, and the process exited without
`AbortMultipartUpload`.
> - The incomplete upload then stays in the bucket. Nothing records its
upload id and nothing finds it again, so incomplete uploads pile up and
the operator pays for their parts.
> - This pull request aborts the incomplete uploads of each save attempt
when that attempt can no longer win, with no polling and no schema
change.
> - The benefit is that no incomplete upload outlives its save attempt.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A restart-chaos wave (Daytona, R1 workload, storage fault ST4,
`--storage-trigger snapshot-part`, faults K1 and K2, master
`fea4530a30`) passed all 3 tasks. All 3 committed snapshots read back
intact. But the storage audit found 3 incomplete multipart uploads. Each
one was the exact upload that a restart cut off in the middle of
`UploadPart`. The retried save then published a different attempt of the
same snapshot.

**Expected behavior**
When a save attempt can no longer become the snapshot's object, its
incomplete multipart uploads are aborted. The storage audit shows 0
incomplete uploads after the wave.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run a snapshot save larger than 16 MiB against S3.
2. Kill the server (SIGKILL), or send SIGTERM while the store holds an
`UploadPart` request.
3. Let the save retry and publish.
4. List the bucket's multipart uploads. The cut-off attempt's upload is
still there.

**Paperclip version or commit**
master `fea4530a30` and later.

**Relevant logs or output**
`shutdown step timed out; continuing shutdown without it
{"step":"delivery_work_stop","durationMs":20001}`, then `Paperclip did
not stop within 30000ms; sending SIGKILL`.

## What Changed

- The S3 storage provider and the storage service get
`abortIncompleteUploads(objectKey)`. It lists the multipart uploads
under that exact key (`ListMultipartUploads` with the key as the
prefix), skips other keys that only share the prefix, and aborts each
one. `NoSuchUpload` counts as already done. The local-disk provider has
no multipart uploads and does nothing.
- Save publication: the save journals every attempt's object key in
`metadata.uploads` before any remote I/O. When one attempt moves the
snapshot from `pending` to `uploaded`, no other attempt can win any
more. The winning process now aborts the incomplete uploads of every
other journaled attempt key. Each abort is best effort and bounded to 5
s. A snapshot with one attempt sends no extra request.
- A losing uploader that is still live: if its upload fails after
another attempt has published the snapshot, it now returns the published
snapshot (after it verifies it) instead of the error. So an abort from
the winner never fails a save that is still running in another process.
- Snapshot retention: before it deletes a retired snapshot's objects
(this includes saves that #20502 retires as abandoned), retention aborts
the incomplete uploads of each attempt key. A store that refuses the
listing (for example a missing `s3:ListBucketMultipartUploads`
permission) logs a warning and does not block the deletion.
- Abandoned saves: when the ownership reconciler retires an abandoned
save (`remote_snapshot_save` and `remote_snapshot_ledger` settlement,
from #20502), it now aborts the incomplete uploads of every journaled
attempt key after its transaction commits. The owner run is terminal and
the save work is settled, so no live uploader can own those uploads.
This is the durable path for SIGKILL: the reconciler pass after boot
settles the dead save and cleans its uploads.
- SIGTERM drain: the multipart upload code keeps an in-process set of
running uploads. Shutdown aborts them right away when
`delivery_work_stop` times out. It also aborts them after the heartbeat
run drain, before the finalizer and workspace-recovery waits, after a 5
s grace for them to finish. It waits at most 10 s for the
`AbortMultipartUpload` calls. Shutdown does nothing extra when no upload
runs.
- No polling and no periodic sweep. All triggers are events that already
exist: publication, abandonment settlement, retention of a retired
snapshot, and shutdown.

Previous-release story (`rules/upgrade-safe-run-state.mdc`): this adds
no persisted state and changes no saved shape. A snapshot that the
previous release saved with cut-off attempts in `metadata.uploads`
carries forward. Its incomplete uploads are aborted when the new release
publishes a retry of that snapshot, or when retention retires the
snapshot.

## Verification

- Red before, green after (all fail on master, pass with this change):
- `server/src/services/remote-workspace-snapshot-storage.test.ts`:
"aborts the incomplete upload of an attempt a restart cut off once a
retried save publishes" and "adopts the published save when another
uploader aborts this attempt's upload".
- `server/src/services/remote-workspace-snapshot-retention.test.ts`:
"aborts each attempt's incomplete multipart upload before deleting a
retired snapshot's objects". A second test proves that a refused listing
does not block retention.
- `server/src/__tests__/storage-s3-multipart-shutdown.test.ts`: file and
streamed uploads whose part the store holds are aborted at shutdown, and
the provider aborts only the exact key across listing pages.
- `server/src/__tests__/remote-snapshot-ledger-settlement.test.ts`:
"aborts the incomplete multipart uploads of every attempt when the
reconciler retires an abandoned save" (both settlement kinds; a key
outside the snapshot's prefix is skipped).
- `tests/restart-chaos/storage-orphan-uploads.test.ts` (MinIO): the real
provider aborts both cut-off uploads of one attempt key, and keeps a
sibling attempt and a longer key that shares the prefix.
- `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/storage-s3 src/storage
src/__tests__/remote-snapshot-ledger-settlement.test.ts
src/services/remote-workspace-snapshot
src/services/remote-workspace-transport.test.ts
src/__tests__/remote-workspace-file-resources.test.ts`: 19 files, 517
tests pass; with `src/services/recovery`, `src/__tests__/ownership*` and
`heartbeat-workspace-busy.test.ts`, 32 files and 580 tests pass.
- `cd server && npx tsc --noEmit` and `node
scripts/typecheck-test-projects.mjs tests/restart-chaos` pass.
- Live proof, Daytona R1, ST4, `--storage-trigger snapshot-part`, K1/K2,
seed 1033, the evidence wave's flags, image
`paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:05a4a092…` (controllerMatch: match):
- Before (master `fea4530a30`): `w-20261110T130541-s1033`: 3/3 pass, **3
incomplete multipart uploads**.
- `w-20261110T134623-s1033` on an earlier revision of this PR (publish +
retention hooks only): 2 incomplete uploads remained. Those saves were
abandoned, not retried, so neither hook ran. This led to the settlement
hook.
- After (head `8bc8fc66d0`): `w-20261110T141144-s1033`: 3/3 tasks pass,
exit 0, every fired restart proved it cut the held `UploadPart`, the
reconciler settled 3 abandoned saves, shutdown logged one in-flight
abort, and the storage audit shows **0 incomplete multipart uploads**
and 3 committed snapshots that read back intact.

## Risks

- A live uploader in another process can lose its incomplete upload when
a different attempt publishes first. That uploader now adopts the
published snapshot, so its save still succeeds.
- Narrow gap: an uploader that recorded its attempt but had not yet sent
`CreateMultipartUpload` when the winner published, and that then crashes
during its upload, leaves an incomplete upload until retention retires
the snapshot. An S3 lifecycle rule for incomplete uploads stays a good
backstop.
- Stores without `ListMultipartUploads` permission log a warning and
keep the previous behavior.
- Shutdown can take up to 10 s longer, and only when an upload is still
running after the drain.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 2e3cbe57a4 fix(native): preserve parked Runners across controller restarts (#20586)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native execution parks a released sandbox Runner for a later turn.
> - The warm idle timer detaches Core and leaves Runner retention to the
host.
> - Controller shutdown instead stops recently parked Runners through
checkpoint cleanup.
> - This makes reuse depend on whether the idle timer fired before
shutdown.

or recovery mechanism.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes: #20012.
Related: #20005 unified cached and adopted process reuse. Closed #19975
included this shutdown change within a broader retention proposal.

## What Changed

- Detach confirmed released entries during controller shutdown. Keep
busy, unreleased, and close-marked entries on the existing cleanup path.
- Share the detach operation with idle expiry and cached-owner handoff.
- Record that a local handle has started detaching. Later cleanup cannot
fall back to stopping its Runner after a partial detach failure.
- Preserve explicit environment deletion, release proof, admission, and
process-reuse checks.
- Add Codex and Claude restart, detach-failure, and environment-deletion
regressions. Add real Runner adoption cases after the restart sweep,
including managed GitHub rebinding.
- Document the lifetime rule and make the shutdown warning cover both
detach and checkpoint failures.

## Verification

- Final source revision: `e4bb6ecbd7`. Local environment: macOS arm64,
Node 26.12.0.
- New controller-restart and detach-failure tests fail against unchanged
master: 4 expected failures. Old shutdown calls close or reports success
instead of reporting detach failure.
- Focused executor tests: 22 passed.
- Full native session executor suite: 1,328 passed.
- `cd server && node scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs`: passed all source
and test layers.
- `node scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs` and `git diff --check`:
passed.
- Manual diff review and added-line credential/PII scan: passed.
- `cd server && node ../node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run
src/services/native-runtime/plugin-runner-release-resume.integration.test.ts
--bail=1 --reporter=verbose`: 14 passed on this revision. This includes
new Codex and Claude restart cases and managed GitHub rebinding.
- Failure history: an earlier concurrent run had 4 passes and 10
failures. Its first failure was the existing Claude cached case
exceeding 60 seconds. Later cases encountered a leftover prototype spy,
recursive calls, and startup timeouts. No source changed before the
passing full rerun. A clean worktree of unchanged master (`e01fe7f84a`)
passed all 11 original cases. The first timeout's exact cause remains
unknown; the later pass does not establish that cause.
- Standard Greptile review: 5/5 on
`e4bb6ecbd7bd965b5f56507d2c42c580e8a1d547`, with no actionable findings.
- `node scripts/local-verify.mjs --explain` returned exit 2 because the
execution-semantics document requires broad CI. Required CI will supply
broad typecheck, test, and build coverage.
- A hosted deployment and an actual controller process replacement have
not been run. The added integration cases exercise the shutdown sweep
and a new adopting transport against a real Runner.

## Risks

- SIGINT and SIGTERM preserve confirmed parked Runners, including
ordinary service stops. The host still owns eviction and retention.
- Detach failure retains a fenced local owner and reports failure. Core
does not infer permission to stop the Runner from that failure.
- Reuse remains conditional on current admission, process configuration,
and host availability.
- No persisted schema, checkpoint format, launch identity, or migration
changes. State from the previous release uses the existing adoption or
verified restore paths.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with reasoning, repository inspection, tool use,
and local test execution. The exact deployment identifier and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 765ccd8691 perf(chat): index chat-admission checks by company and payload issue id (#20562)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Chat connections save each external message as a `chat_actions` row
before the server admits it as an agent wakeup.
> - The server checks if an issue holds chat input that it did not
admit. Recovery skips such an issue. Manual task start refuses it.
> - On a hosted instance, the recovery read with this check used the
most total database time: 488 calls at about 1 s each. The manual-start
check ran 155 times at about 0.9 s.
> - The check matches `chat_actions.payload->>'issueId'` against the
issue. No index covers this value, so each call reads the full
`chat_actions` table and its payloads.
> - This pull request adds one concurrent partial index for the check.
The check SQL does not change.
> - The benefit is less background database load, so request reads wait
less. The results stay the same.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The chat-admission check `unadmittedChatWakeupCondition`. Recovery uses
it in the per-issue candidate read. Manual task start uses it in the
held-input check.

**Subsystem affected**
Server chat admission, issue recovery, manual task start, and the
database schema.

**Current behavior**
The check finds `inbound_wakeup` actions by `company_id` and
`payload->>'issueId'`. Two nested checks find `failed_run_retry` actions
and later `inbound_wakeup` actions on the same company and payload issue
ID. `chat_actions` has no index on `company_id` or on the payload issue
ID. Each call reads the full table and reads each payload. On a hosted
instance, the two statements used about 630 s of database time in one
statistics window.

**Proposed behavior**
The check and its nested checks read a small set of rows from one index.
The admission result does not change.

**Reason and benefit**
The hosted database had many concurrent active queries. Request reads
waited behind background work such as this check.

**Breaking changes**
None. The migration adds an index only.

## What Changed

- Migration `0458_chat_admission_issue_index` builds
`chat_actions_company_issue_kind_idx` with `CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY IF
NOT EXISTS`. It runs through the existing top-level statement path,
which repairs an invalid index on retry.
  - Keys: `(company_id, payload->>'issueId', kind, status)`.
  - Partial: `kind IN ('inbound_wakeup', 'failed_run_retry')`.
- One index serves the outer input lookup, the failed-run retry lookup,
and the later-input lookup. All three match on the same company and
payload issue ID.
- The Drizzle schema declares the index. The snapshot chain moves to
`0458` and keeps five snapshots.
- New regression test
`server/src/__tests__/chat-admission-condition.test.ts` pins the
admission semantics on real PostgreSQL:
- Pending and failed input without a receipt holds the issue. Received,
processed and cancelled input does not. Other action kinds do not.
- A skipped receipt, a receipt for another agent, or a receipt in
another company does not admit input. A failed or cancelled run still
counts as admission.
- The issue ID is compared as company-scoped text. Uppercase, array,
null, other-issue and other-company values do not match.
- Only an admitted retry in the same conversation and issue that lists
the action releases skipped input.
- Only later admitted input in the same conversation, issue and session
generation releases a failed input. Pending input stays held.
  - The check reads `chat_actions` only through the new index.
- `scripts/benchmark-chat-admission-index.ts` measures both caller
statements with and without the index and fails if the rows differ.
- `scripts/benchmark-chat-admission-index-migration.ts` times the
migration through the normal migration runner.
- `doc/DATABASE.md` documents the index and the benchmark commands.

## Verification

Local SQL measurements on synthetic data. PostgreSQL 18.1 (embedded),
default settings. The fixture has 100,995 `chat_actions` rows (662 MB):
60,000 GitHub actions with 6 KiB incompressible payloads, 2,000 issues
with 20 admitted inbound messages each (3 KiB payloads), and 1,000
failed-run retries. Each case has 2 warmups and 9 samples of `EXPLAIN
ANALYZE` execution time. Runs alternate: no index, index, no index,
index.

| Caller statement | Case | No index, median (range) | Index, median
(range) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Manual-start held check | quiet issue | 3,093 ms (2,150–3,519) / 3,586
ms (2,375–11,235) | 0.036 ms (0.034–0.052) / 0.040 ms (0.033–0.047) |
| Manual-start held check | admitted input | 3,555 ms (3,310–8,080) /
5,205 ms (3,353–9,525) | 0.049 ms / 0.052 ms |
| Manual-start held check | unadmitted input | 3,002 ms (2,864–3,221) /
4,179 ms (3,200–6,585) | 0.051 ms / 0.044 ms |
| Manual-start held check | failed, later admitted | 3,586 ms / 3,722 ms
| 0.066 ms / 0.054 ms |
| Manual-start held check | admitted retry | 2,733 ms / 4,953 ms | 0.049
ms / 0.053 ms |
| Recovery candidate read | quiet issue | 43 ms (41–48) / 96 ms (44–219)
| 0.047 ms / 0.055 ms |
| Recovery candidate read | admitted input | 203 ms (48–575) / 174 ms
(44–314) | 0.055 ms / 0.058 ms |
| Recovery candidate read | unadmitted input | 66 ms / 144 ms | 0.053 ms
/ 0.054 ms |

- Buffers per call fall from about 40,000 shared hits to 5–23.
- Locally, the recovery read without the index uses a hashed full scan
of `chat_actions`. The held check uses a full scan per call. On the
hosted instance both took about 1 s per call. The local fixture is
smaller than the hosted table.
- Correctness: complete positional rows match across all four runs for
all six cases (quiet, admitted, unadmitted, failed then admitted,
retried, other-company decoy). The script asserts the expected held
result for each case.
- Migration timing: 600,001 `chat_actions` rows (1,759 MB), 300,000 of
them in the index scope. First run through `applyPendingMigrations`: 4.2
s. Rerun after the history row is removed: 0.5 s. Concurrent build
alone: 3.4 s. Index size: 30 MB.

Commands:

```sh
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx ../scripts/benchmark-chat-admission-index.ts
OTHER_PAYLOAD_KIB=2 pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx ../scripts/benchmark-chat-admission-index-migration.ts
cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/chat-admission-condition.test.ts   # 6 passed
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations                               # passed
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck                                  # passed
```

## Risks

- The migration builds one index concurrently. It does not block writes.
On the 1.76 GB local fixture it took about 4 s. A larger hosted table
takes longer, but the build does not lock out reads or writes.
- Writes to `inbound_wakeup` and `failed_run_retry` actions maintain one
more index. Status updates on these rows were already not HOT updates,
because other partial indexes use `status`.
- The planner has no expression statistics for a partial index. The new
test pins that the check uses the index on an analyzed table with
unrelated rows.
- The check SQL does not change, so admission behavior does not change.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 96ab5e3d38 fix(recovery): read a retained Runner from its own allocation and continue unverifiable no-replay holds from the last save (#20567)
<!-- Write all pull request text in Simplified Technical English

the sandbox.

`native_controller_recovery_missing_evidence:retained_sandbox_binding`

> - The failed run's no-replay hold then refused its files with
`allocation_ownership_ambiguous`. The task stayed blocked. The text said
that Retry "succeeds only after Paperclip is updated", so no click could
help.
> - This pull request binds the Runner read to the directory that the
retained lease recorded, and lets the existing retained-source fallback
settle these holds from the last save.
> - The benefit is that a moved workspace continues its session, and a
hold that cannot be verified continues automatically instead of
dead-ending.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20346

**What happened?**
On staging, a warm native continuation ran about 10 minutes after a
deploy. The run before it died during preparation (database deadlock),
so its workspace epoch was abandoned. The continuation restored the last
save into a new allocation directory of the same Daytona sandbox. It
then failed with
`native_controller_recovery_missing_evidence:retained_sandbox_binding`,
because the retained lease of the committed source run recorded the old
directory. The failure recorded a no-replay hold
(`native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`, resolved with outcome
`blocked`). Workspace recovery refused the source with
`allocation_ownership_ambiguous`, because the sandbox's reusable-lease
chain had predecessors in another directory and a non-native
preparation-only run. The task stayed blocked with "Retry runs the check
again and succeeds only after Paperclip is updated."

**Expected behavior**
The continuation reads the retained Runner state from the directory
where that Runner wrote it, and continues. When retained files cannot be
verified, the task continues from the last committed save without a
person.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run a warm native session on a reusable remote sandbox and let it
commit.
2. Fail the next run during preparation, so that its epoch is abandoned
(#20346).
3. Start the next warm continuation. It restores the last save into a
new allocation directory and fails with `retained_sandbox_binding`.
4. See the hold refuse its source with `allocation_ownership_ambiguous`
and stay blocked.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Staging `c874cfa4dacc` (includes #20346).

## What Changed

- `assertNativeRetainedSandboxBinding` now returns the directory that
the retained lease recorded. It accepts a different target directory
only when both are canonical sibling allocations of the same execution
workspace under the sandbox's `.paperclip-workspaces` (`<workspaceId>`
or `<workspaceId>-<epoch>-<leaseId>`). Same sandbox (`providerLeaseId`),
environment, run, issue and committed owner are still required. Other
directories stay refused.
- `restoreRemoteSuspendedRunnerCheckpoint` reads the Runner state from
that recorded directory. A moved source must be suspended and settled. A
Runner left in the old allocation is never adopted live.
- The retained-source fallback (`continueFromLastSavedWorkspace`) and
its discovery now also cover the native no-replay hold
(`native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`, active or resolved with
outcome `blocked`, replay blocked for the same run). Rows saved by
earlier releases are discovered without migration.
- The fallback owns the Blocked status of such a hold only while the
recorded `nativeFailureBlock` status version still matches the task.
Otherwise it keeps the newer block and starts no continuation.
- The refusal text no longer says "succeeds only after Paperclip is
updated", and it promises no fallback.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` describes both rules.

## Verification

- Red (unfixed code): `native-controller-recovery.integration.test.ts`
"binds a retained Runner read to the source's directory after the
workspace moved within the same sandbox" failed with
`native_controller_recovery_missing_evidence:retained_sandbox_binding`
at `native-controller-recovery.ts:145`, the staging error.
- Red (unfixed code): `workspace-recovery-fallback.test.ts` "continues a
resolved-but-blocked native no-replay hold from the last save,
discovered by the worker" failed: the worker found no due work for the
exact staging row. The newer-block safety case and the message case in
`system-recovery-state.test.ts` also failed.
- Provider boundary: a new test drives
`restoreRemoteSuspendedRunnerCheckpoint` through a sandbox runner that
refuses paths outside the sandbox workspace base. The suspended case
reads `runner-state.json` from the source directory, never the moved
root. The ready case is refused with `runner_not_settled` and caches
nothing.
- Green: `native-controller-recovery.integration.test.ts`,
`workspace-recovery-fallback.test.ts` and
`system-recovery-state.test.ts` pass (45 tests). The neighbouring suites
`workspace-recovery-retry-copyback`,
`workspace-recovery-preparation-gates` and
`workspace-recovery-stop-proof` pass (135 tests).
- Safety cases: another workspace, another parent, a non-canonical path
or name (`-0-`, trailing text), `/unrelated` and another sandbox stay
refused. A hold whose task moved to a newer Blocked decision keeps the
block and starts no continuation. Exactly one continuation is delivered.
Native replacement is denied for the abandoned source, so no second
executor starts.
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json` passes. `pnpm verify`
returns exit 2 (a global doc input changed), so required CI supplies the
broad coverage.

## Risks

- Previous-release state: rows saved by earlier releases carry forward
without migration. The binding reads existing lease metadata. The
fallback discovers existing resolved-but-blocked holds by their existing
evidence fields.
- The binding now accepts a sibling allocation directory. The read still
binds to the exact sandbox, run, environment and committed owner, and it
reads only the source's recorded directory. A non-suspended Runner in a
moved allocation is refused, not adopted.
- The fallback abandons the unverified epoch and continues from the last
committed save with a fresh session. In the staging shape the run did no
provider work after it restored that save, so no work is lost.
Unverified files are attached to the task when they can be read, as
before.
- Not verified live: a real warm Codex resume after a moved allocation
on Daytona.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 99edcd28a7 perf(attention): read each retention candidate kind in its own bounded branch (#20566)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The attention retention worker archives old "Needs you" items, such
as open decisions, pending questions, failed runs and items in review
> - To find its work, the worker reads a page of retention candidates.
It reads one page per changed scope, and one single-source read for each
check of a due item
> - On a hosted stack this candidate read ran 2,835 times at about 1 s
per call, 4,201 s of database time in one afternoon window
> - The read built every candidate of every kind before it applied the
keyset limit. Its company and source filters used the `param is null or
column = param` form. Under a generic prepared plan these filters cannot
use an index. The failed-run branch also matched retry receipts with a
bound LIKE parameter, so it could not use the partial index
`heartbeat_run_events_retry_exhausted_idx`
> - This pull request reads each kind in its own branch, puts every
filter into that branch, and limits each branch to one page
> - The benefit is a bounded read for each page, and a primary-key read
for each single-source check, with the same rows, order and cursors

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The attention retention candidate scan in
`server/src/services/attention-retention.ts`.

**Subsystem affected**
Server: attention retention background work (database reads only).

**Current behavior**
Each page reads all candidates of all selected kinds, then sorts them
and keeps 100. Optional filters use `($n is null or column = $n)`. A
generic prepared plan cannot use an index for these filters. The
single-source check compares `id::text`, so it cannot use the primary
key. The retry receipt LIKE pattern is a parameter, so the plan cannot
use the partial receipt index.

**Proposed behavior**
Each kind is one branch with its company, source, issue and keyset
filters inside it and `limit 100`. Kinds before the cursor are not read.
A source id filter uses the uuid primary key. The receipt pattern is a
SQL literal that matches the partial index predicate. The page result
does not change.

Refs #20386 (adds the partial receipt index that this branch now uses).

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/attention-retention.ts`: replace the single union
scan with `candidateQuery`. Each source kind is a branch that has its
own filters, retention join and one-page limit. The outer query still
orders by `(source_kind, source_id)` and keeps 100 rows.
- Only add a filter when the scope sets it. There is no `param is null
or ...` form now.
- A single-source read compares `id = $uuid`. It returns no rows for
text that is not the canonical lowercase uuid form. The former `id::text
= $text` comparison also never matched such text.
- Skip the kinds that come before the keyset cursor kind.
`ATTENTION_RETENTION_KIND_ORDER` holds the kind order, and a test checks
it against the database collation.
- The failed-run branch matches `'Bounded retry exhausted%'` as a
literal, so it reads `heartbeat_run_events_retry_exhausted_idx`.
- Export `listAttentionRetentionCandidates` for the test and the
benchmark. The service uses it without a change in behavior.
- New test
`server/src/__tests__/attention-retention-candidates.test.ts`. It runs
on real PostgreSQL and compares every page, row and cursor with the
former scan (kept in the test as an oracle). It covers: one company, all
companies, one kind, the blocker kind (which ignores retention), an
unknown kind, issue scopes (including uppercase and malformed ids),
exact source ids (uppercase, braces, no dashes, empty and malformed text
return nothing), a `null` source id from a decoded scope, other-company
isolation, inactive companies, kept and archived retention, and failed
runs without a lifecycle receipt.
- New benchmark `scripts/benchmark-attention-retention-candidates.ts`.
It loads the baseline service from git, captures the SQL that each
version sends for the same scopes, and times both under custom and
generic plans. Each round alternates the order. It fails if the rows
differ.
- No migration. The existing indexes cover each branch: company and
status indexes on each source table, the issues company/status index,
and the partial receipt index from #20386.

## Verification

src/__tests__/attention-retention-candidates.test.ts`: 10 passed.

- The timing connection uses named prepared statements, as the server
does by default. The benchmark checks `pg_prepared_statements` before it
collects samples, so the samples reuse the parsed statement.
- The driver uses named prepared statements by default, so after five
runs PostgreSQL can switch a statement to a generic plan. The generic
rows are the relevant case for a busy server. Custom plans were already
good for most scopes, and the change is neutral there.
- Plan after the change (company page, generic): the failed-run branch
reads the partial receipt index (13 blocks), then probes
`heartbeat_runs` by primary key. The single-source check reads each
primary key and the retention unique index (10 blocks in all).

## Risks

- Low behavior risk. The test compares the new pages with the former
query on the same data, including cursors in the middle of a kind and at
kind boundaries.
- Kind skipping depends on the order of kind names. Every kind name is
different from the others before its first underscore, so C and
linguistic collations give the same order. A test checks the order
against the database.
- The benchmark fixture is smaller than the hosted database. The hosted
cost (about 1 s per call) is larger than the local baseline. I did not
measure the hosted improvement. It needs a fresh query-statistics window
after deploy.
- On this loaded local machine, one full run of
`attention-retention-work.test.ts` had 3 tests time out at 30 s (no-run
issue finalization, no-run workspace finalization, and interaction
create/withdraw). The same 3 tests pass when run alone. CI is the
authority for this suite.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic. Agentic coding with
tool use (shell, file edits, local PostgreSQL).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 faaae003a9 perf(chat): find the conversation head from open delivery work (#20564)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - External chat messages go into a durable delivery queue. Each
conversation drains in provider order.
> - Each drain step reads the head of one conversation. The head query
filters one endpoint's deliveries by state and thread.
> - On a hosted instance, this query ran about 10,000 times at about 300
ms each. The database was busy, and request reads waited behind
background work.
> - PostgreSQL read every processed delivery of the endpoint and its
`normalized_event` value to find a few open rows.
> - This pull request finds the endpoint's open delivery IDs first and
fetches only those rows.
> - The benefit is less background database load. The selected head and
the delivery order do not change.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The inbound conversation head query
(`earliestOpenConversationDelivery`).

**Subsystem affected**
Server chat inbound delivery queue.

**Current behavior**
The query has `endpoint_id = $1 and (state in ('received', 'retry',
'processing') or (state = 'processed' and <pending inbound wake>))`, a
thread filter on `normalized_event`, and a sort on `normalized_event`
keys. No index matches the `or`. PostgreSQL scans all deliveries of the
endpoint. For each row it reads `normalized_event` to test the thread.
It also reads all of `chat_actions` to build the pending-wake set. A
busy endpoint keeps all of its processed history, so the cost grows with
that history.

**Proposed behavior**
The query selects `id in (<open delivery IDs of the endpoint>)`. That
set is a `union all` of two small reads:
- received, retry and processing deliveries of the endpoint, through the
existing `chat_deliveries_work_idx`;
- processed deliveries that an issued or processing `inbound_wakeup`
action of the same endpoint (and company) still owns.

PostgreSQL fetches only those rows by primary key, then applies the same
reaction, thread and order rules.

**Reason and benefit**
The cost no longer grows with processed history. On a local fixture with
60,000 processed deliveries, the head query reads 1,309 shared buffers
instead of 262,630.

**Breaking changes**
None. There is no schema change, migration, API change, timer or poll
change.

Related work: #17971 changed the pending-wake predicate of the same
queue. #20400 added the index for the other chat delivery statement in
the same report (`select state ...
normalized_event->'githubAutomatic'->'context'->>'deliveryId'`). That
statement already uses the #20400 index on master, so this pull request
does not change it.

## What Changed

- `delivery-ledger.ts`: add `openConversationDeliveryIds(endpointId)`.
It returns the endpoint's open delivery IDs. It selects the same set as
the old state predicate for that endpoint.
- `conversation-queue.ts`: the conversation head query uses `id in
(openConversationDeliveryIds(endpointId))` in place of the state `or`.
The thread filter, reaction exclusion, order, limit and lifecycle
dependency read do not change.
- `inbound-queue-discovery.test.ts`: add a real PostgreSQL test. It
compares the new set with the old predicate on three endpoints. It
covers each state, issued and processing wakes, duplicate wakes, wakes
of non-processed deliveries, processed, other-kind and null-delivery
actions, an action on a different endpoint of the same company, and
reactions. It also checks that the real captured head query returns the
oracle's first row.
- `benchmark-inbound-queue-discovery.ts`: add
`--endpoint-history=<rows>` (a busy endpoint with 4 KiB payloads) and
`--only=<fixture>`. Add a work budget: the treatment head query must
visit at most 100 delivery rows on the history fixtures.
- `doc/DATABASE.md`: describe the head query and the benchmark command.

## Verification

Local SQL measurements. PostgreSQL 17.10 (Postgres.app, macOS arm64),
disposable database, synthetic data, default settings with 256 MB shared
buffers. The host was under heavy load from other work, so timings are
noisy. Shared buffers and visited rows are stable. Each arm has two
warmups and five alternating samples (median [min..max]). Baseline:
`origin/master` at `8d2bf78323`.

| Fixture | Query | Baseline | Treatment | Shared buffers | Delivery
rows visited | Output |
| --- | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | --- |
| 60,000 processed, 4 KiB | head | 290.09 ms [220.21..554.19] | 7.34 ms
[5.85..7.68] | 262,630 → 1,309 | 60,002 → 4 | Equal |
| 20,000 processed, 4 KiB | head | 276.02 ms [211.77..322.12] | 34.61 ms
[4.45..194.15] | 67,618 → 486 | 20,002 → 4 | Equal |
| 1,500 processed, 32 KiB | head | 15.88 ms [13.66..21.79] | 2.29 ms
[1.64..7.75] | 10,602 → 80 | 1,502 → 4 | Equal |
| 20 processed | head | 1.49 ms [0.92..3.66] | 1.85 ms [1.01..1.97] | 2
→ 45 | 22 → 968 | Equal |

- The deadline and ready selectors do not change. Their buffers are
identical in both arms; their timings move only with host noise.
- The small control is neutral. On a near-empty table, PostgreSQL picks
a sequential scan for the open-state branch. This costs about 45
buffers.
- The 60,000-row run passes `--require-work-budget`. The baseline
exceeds the budget (`baselineExceedsWorkBudget: true`). This is the
red/green proof. There is no timing threshold in CI.
- On the treatment, the remaining head cost is the scan of
`chat_actions` for pending wakes of the endpoint. The baseline also
reads all of `chat_actions` for its hashed subplan.
- `pnpm exec vitest run src/__tests__/inbound-queue-discovery.test.ts`
(server): 6 tests pass, including the new equivalence test.
- `chat-channels.integration.test.ts` filtered with `-t
"reorder|orders|FIFO|conversation drain|lease renewal|receipt
order|edit|lifecycle"`: 148 assembled chat tests pass. They cover Slack,
Teams, Telegram, Discord and GitHub provider-order drains, head-of-line
barriers, lease loss, lifecycle edits and wake retries.
- `pnpm exec tsc --noEmit -p tsconfig.json` (server) passes.

Reproduce:

```sh
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx ../scripts/benchmark-inbound-queue-discovery.ts --baseline-ref=8d2bf78323 --endpoint-history=60000 --only=endpoint-history --require-work-budget
```

Set `PAPERCLIP_TEST_POSTGRES_ADMIN_URL` to use an existing disposable
PostgreSQL server. The benchmark uses synthetic data only.

## Risks

- Query plans depend on data and settings. These local numbers do not
prove hosted request latency. A follow-up statistics window after deploy
must confirm the gain.
- The pending-wake branch still scans the endpoint's `chat_actions`. A
partial index on pending `inbound_wakeup` actions would remove that
scan. I did not add it, to avoid a migration.
- Low behavior risk. The new set equals the old predicate for each
endpoint, and the order expression is unchanged. Tests compare both on
the same rows.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, with tool use (shell,
file edit) in Claude Code. Extended reasoning was used.

DottaandPaperclip dff8bed007 fix(ui): show chat activity immediately during admission (#20559)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and their work.
> - Chat uses a shared runner turn to show activity after Send.
> - The turn currently shows Queued while the server admits the request.
> - People need immediate activity feedback during this short wait.
> - This change uses the existing Working header and Thinking activity
during ordinary admission.
> - Specific server holds stay visible so people can see setup or
maintenance delays.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The activity indicator in task chat and agent chat after Send.

**Current behavior**

Ordinary admission shows Queued in the header and activity row. It
changes to Working and Thinking when execution starts.

**Proposed behavior**

Show Working and Thinking from message submission through ordinary
queued admission. Keep the same avatar, name, and activity row in place.
Preserve specific server waits and the existing queue controls.

**Subsystem affected**

ui/ — React board UI.

## What Changed

- Use the default activity presentation when a queued turn has no
specific server hold.
- Retain maintenance, agent setup, server restart, previous-run,
provider, and preparation labels.
- Omit the elapsed-time suffix until a start time is known. This
prevents a frozen Working for 0s header before a run exists.
- Update component tests for submission, acknowledgement, reassignment,
and runtime discovery on desktop and mobile.
- Update the activity guidance in DESIGN.md.
- Keep this behavior in the shared runner turn. No API, queue, or
execution contract changes are needed.

## Verification

- Chat component suites: 582 passed, 1 existing skip.
- Command: `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/task-chat/TaskChatRunnerTurn.test.tsx
ui/src/components/TaskChatThread.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx`.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: passed.
- `pnpm verify`: exit 2. DESIGN.md is a global CI input, so the selector
requires broader CI coverage. The three focused chat suites passed again
on final commit `e85b8e43b007288f3ef41e0a42e801d5d2c41e54`. Required CI
passed on this revision. See the CI result below.
- The earlier CI attempt on `796fac80a06769d67af5b899fb186a875bfb228d`
failed the unchanged Rust test
`process_lineage::journal::tests::reaping_stops_a_dead_runners_provider_and_its_escaped_tool_job`
with `unattributed_orphan`. This UI change does not alter its compiled
inputs. The cause is not yet established. The current revision passed
the Rust check. The earlier failure cause remains unknown. [Failed
job](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42843806417/job/129926132490).
- The workspace preflight installed dependencies and built shared and
plugin SDK outputs. Its unrelated Runner build could not start because
cargo is unavailable. The current revision passed CI typecheck and
build.

- Both current-head reviews are 5/5 with no remaining findings. There
are no unresolved review threads.
- Current-head typecheck, build, general tests, serialized server tests,
all eight E2E shards, and Rust checks passed. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42845383745).
- The Runner support suite reported one 30-second timeout in
`private-reporter-artifacts.test.ts`; 11,291 other tests passed. Both
tests in that file passed locally in isolation (1.64 seconds for the
full command). The one rerun passed in CI attempt 2. The timeout cause
remains unknown. [Failed
job](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42845383745/job/129932351496).

- Final CI result: attempt 2 passed on
`e85b8e43b007288f3ef41e0a42e801d5d2c41e54`. Typecheck, build, tests,
Rust checks, and all eight E2E shards passed. [CI attempt
2](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42845383745/attempts/2).

## Risks

- Low risk. This changes presentation only. A queued turn can show
Thinking before provider execution starts.
- Specific server holds remain visible. Scheduling, permissions, and
saved message controls do not change.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 56aa160a4e perf(native): index heartbeat runs by company and native session (#20560)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs share a native session. Retention, recovery, resume and
archive code reads all runs of one session from `heartbeat_runs`.
> - On a hosted instance, the native retention lookup ran about 67,000
times in one day at about 22 ms, and about 10,000 times at about 11 ms
in a later window.
> - No index has `native_session_id`. Each read walks the agent's or the
company's run history and filters the rows.
> - This pull request adds one concurrent partial index on `(company_id,
native_session_id)`. The SQL does not change.
> - The benefit is less background database load. Request reads wait
less, and the results stay the same.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The native session-run lookups. The largest caller is
`sessionRetentionBlocker` in native harness backup and checkpoint
retention. It selects `id, status, finished_at`, an incomplete-recovery
flag and the issue ID for one company, agent and native session.

**Subsystem affected**
Server native runtime (retention, recovery, resume and archive reads)
and the database schema.

**Current behavior**
`heartbeat_runs` has no index on `native_session_id`. PostgreSQL reads
the whole run history of the company (or of the agent through
`heartbeat_runs_company_agent_started_idx`) and filters by session. The
cost grows with the run history, not with the size of the session.

**Proposed behavior**
The index finds the few runs of one session directly. Every caller
already filters by `company_id` and `native_session_id`, so one index
serves the agent-scoped and the issue-scoped reads.

**Reason and benefit**
This statement family used about 1,500 s of database time in one day on
a busy hosted database. The local proof below shows 12.3 ms to 0.04 ms
per call.

## What Changed

- `packages/db`: add `heartbeat_runs_company_native_session_idx` on
`(company_id, native_session_id) WHERE native_session_id IS NOT NULL`.
Migration `0457_native_session_run_index` builds it with `CREATE INDEX
CONCURRENTLY IF NOT EXISTS`. The migration is registered as a
top-level-statement migration, the same way as 0454–0456.
- Add a regression test in `native-harness-backup-expiration.test.ts`.
It captures the real retention lookup and proves that its plan can use
the index. It also pins the company and session scope: a live run of
another company with the same session ID does not protect a checkpoint.
A live run of the same agent in another session does not protect it. A
live run of the same session does protect it.
- Add `scripts/benchmark-native-session-run-index.ts`. It runs the real
checkpoint retention pass (dry run), captures the exact SQL, and replays
it with and without the index. It also times the migration through the
normal migration runner.
- `doc/DATABASE.md`: describe the index and the benchmark command.

## Verification

Local SQL measurements, synthetic data. PostgreSQL 18.1 (embedded test
server). Fixture: 100,000 runs (50,000 of the measured agent, 50,000 of
a second agent), 4 runs per session, 4 KiB incompressible
`runner_profile_json` per run, 638 MB table. Order: no index, index, no
index, index. 15 `EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS)` samples after 3 warmups.

| Pass | Plan | Median execution | Min / max | Shared buffers |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| No index (1) | Seq Scan | 12.30 ms | 10.33 / 35.27 ms | 3,607 |
| Index (2) | Index Scan using
`heartbeat_runs_company_native_session_idx` | 0.036 ms | 0.021 / 0.115
ms | 38 |
| No index (3) | Seq Scan | 12.38 ms | 10.24 / 26.14 ms | 3,607 |
| Index (4) | Index Scan using
`heartbeat_runs_company_native_session_idx` | 0.043 ms | 0.022 / 0.098
ms | 38 |

- Correctness: the service SQL is the same in every pass. The returned
rows (all columns) and the retention result are equal in every pass. The
script fails on any difference.
- Migration: the first run through the migration runner took 525 ms on
the 638 MB fixture. The rerun took 273 ms and skipped the existing
index. A direct concurrent build took 145–221 ms. Index size: 1.9 MB.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx
../scripts/benchmark-native-session-run-index.ts`
- `npx vitest run
src/__tests__/native-harness-backup-expiration.test.ts` (server): 108
passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations`: passed. Five
snapshots remain.
- `pnpm verify` exits 2 (a new script under `scripts/` is a global CI
input). Required CI supplies the broad coverage.

## Risks

- Low risk. The migration adds one index concurrently and does not lock
writes. The SQL of every caller is unchanged.
- The index adds a small write cost to `heartbeat_runs` inserts and to
updates of `native_session_id`. Rows with a null session are not
indexed.
- Persisted run state: no saved run, session or checkpoint shape
changes. State saved by the previous release carries forward unchanged.
- Hosted latency is not measured yet. The numbers above are local SQL
measurements.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (Anthropic), model ID `claude-opus-5-5`, used through
Claude Code with tool use (shell, file edits, local PostgreSQL).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 10bc6431da test(restart-chaos): measure TTFT in a real repository workspace, after an idle restart, and on Daytona (#20047)
## Thinking Path

> - The restart chaos TTFT driver measures time to first token, but only

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
The TTFT driver seeded only a tiny fixture repository, created tasks
outside any project, ran only locally, and could not show workspace
operation durations. So large-workspace speed (worktree creation,
provision, remote upload) was never measured.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run `ttft-baseline.ts` with any options.
2. Every task runs without a project workspace and on the local host.
3. Nothing in the report shows worktree, provision or sync cost.

**Expected behavior**
The driver can measure a real repository workspace, locally and on
Daytona, and names the workspace operations each run waited on.

## What Changed

- `--workspace-repo <path>`: the seed uses that repository as the
project's primary workspace (git_worktree isolation), and tasks are
created in the project.
- A `postfault` phase: K1 while idle, then a follow-up on each task;
reported in its own table.
- `--env daytona`, `--daytona-image`, `--daytona-cpu`, `--daytona-warm`
(the reusable warm Daytona fixture). The Daytona controller preparation
moved to `daytona-controller.ts`, and every sandbox is cleaned up at the
end; incomplete cleanup fails the run.
- Each run's workspace operations
(`/api/heartbeat-runs/:id/workspace-operations`) are saved, and printed
ranked by duration.

## Verification

- `tsc -p tests/restart-chaos`: no errors in harness files.
- Used for the large-workspace measurement, a fresh paperclip clone on
local and Daytona (per-turn and warm). First turn / follow-up: local
31–34 s / 7 s; Daytona per-turn 58–63 s / 30 s; Daytona warm 45–51 s /
8–10 s. Every Daytona sandbox was cleaned up (environment deleted, none
remaining).

## Risks

- Test harness only; no product code.
## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file editing, test execution, Daytona measurements).

DottaandPaperclip ce1ee9e89f fix: stop prompts from encouraging subtasks (#20362)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents read runtime prompts, tool help, skills, and role
instructions.
> - Several of these texts tell agents to create child tasks as a normal
next step.
> - One accepted-plan prompt even forbids work on the current task.
> - Task parentage is useful, but it does not need a prompt that
encourages task creation.
> - This pull request removes those prompts and keeps the task APIs
available.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #10642. This change adjusts prompt wording; it does not add
delegation-cycle guards.

**Current behavior**
Prompts tell agents to create children after plan approval, use children
for long work, and create a task just to pass context. Onboarding
requires a child even for a single request.

**Proposed behavior**
Continue work on the current task. Keep explicit assignments, optional
task creation, parentage, dependencies, and approval gates. Use the
separate-task recipes when the user requests that structure or when
continuing existing work.

**Reason and benefit**
Reduce needless task trees without removing subtask support. Keep the
patch limited to wording, existing test expectations, and generated
catalog data.

## What Changed

- Align accepted-plan prompts and remove direct child-creation advice
from runtime and error text.
- Make task tool descriptions neutral. Keep their fields, defaults, and
handlers.
- Update the main skill, onboarding, CEO instructions, company
templates, specialist workflows, and matching guides.
- Keep historical release snapshots intact. Refresh the explicitly
seeded schema fixture's catalog digest; the server still verifies
historical release snapshot hashes.
- Refresh the affected generated catalogs, capability inventory,
semantic contracts, and fixture manifest.

## Verification

- Final tested head: `c6e304d0c105cdbfbe0b2ab0a233307fcd91a04b`.
- All 66 check runs are complete: 60 pass, one is neutral, and five are
skipped by CI conditions. Snyk also passes. No checks fail or remain
pending.
- [PR
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42846226554)
passes typecheck, build, server/general tests, all eight E2E shards,
Runner support, Runner Rust, and the aggregate verify gate.
[Windows](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42846226546)
and [Docker
Runner](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42846226108)
also pass.

and [Paperclip
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/20362#issuecomment-6751454010)
give this exact head 5/5. All six inline threads are resolved. Neither
current summary has findings.
- Merged master `bf0220d34a156c81853755c3d1365ddc527037de`. Resolved
three generated-file conflicts with the canonical generators.
- Local verification passes: 473 focused prompt, continuation, UI,
catalog, runtime and native-execution tests; Runner TypeScript build;
generated metadata; UI token gates; and diff checks.
- The prior head `c22018cb0f` failed three SDK evidence tests because
two source hashes were stale. Reproduced all three failures locally. The
existing generator refreshed only the hashes for the denial-copy file
and its test. All 53 affected evidence/source-pin tests then passed,
including private-value rejection. No scanner logic, assertions, or
runtime dependency pins changed. Current CI confirms the support suite
passes.
- A prior commit failed the Rust process reaping test. Its cause remains
unproven. No Rust code or assertions changed. Later Rust runs pass; this
does not establish the cause of the earlier failure.
- Local preflight built shared/plugin SDK packages, then stopped because
`cargo` is absent. Current-head CI supplies Rust and full build
coverage. `pnpm verify --explain` selects broad required CI; full local
suites were not repeated.

## Risks

- Wording changes guide the model; they do not enforce a ban on
subtasks.
- Existing installed skill versions and saved custom instructions need
their normal refresh process. This PR does not migrate company
configuration.
- Existing approved task assignments and approval gates remain in
effect.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6, through Codex, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. The exact routed model ID and context-window size were not
exposed in this session.

79e28dc0d0 fix(runner): record pending calls at sidecar shutdown (#20272)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The ACPX sidecar carries task tools between a provider and its
controller.
> - A closed controller pipe rejects all pending tools with `sidecar
stdin closed`.
> - Current logs do not record the first shutdown trigger or the pending
calls at that point.
> - The sampled runs record a server SIGTERM before the 300-second tool
idle timeouts and later pipe failures. The exact pipe-close cause
remains unresolved.
> - This pull request adds one bounded shutdown record before cleanup
removes the evidence.
> - Operators can use it to compare controller shutdown with pending
tool calls.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Several task document reads failed together with `sidecar stdin closed`.
In two sampled staging traces, earlier task tools reached a 300-second
idle timeout. The sidecar source maps the closure error to pending-call
rejection during shutdown. It does not record the trigger or the pending
call population.

Pattern: [Task reads lose their tool
connection](https://www.braintrust.dev/app/Paperclip/p/Paperclip%20Staging/patterns/5544e6f3-9e33-4661-95c3-5849c9a8f2b6).

**Expected behavior**

Record the local shutdown reason and a bounded snapshot of pending calls
before cleanup removes them. Keep tool cancellation and authorization
unchanged.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start the sidecar with pending task calls.
2. Close controller stdin, or send SIGTERM or SIGINT.
3. Inspect the sidecar event stream and stderr.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Baseline: `33a23e024697552a4a639e49957a3443c75a5bd5`.

### Hypothesis and thesis for a fix

The provisional hypothesis is that controller teardown causes the batch
failures after an earlier stall. The source proves how EOF rejects
pending tools. The traces establish ordering. They do not prove why the
controller closed stdin or why the earlier calls stalled. Run logs now
confirm an earlier server shutdown in both examples. One later recovery
could not find the provider; the other later ended at a durable receipt
limit. The first failed settlement and exact pipe-close trigger remain
unresolved. The later example already used a provider revision
containing #19365 and #19290, so those earlier fixes do not alone
explain all occurrences.

This is a **diagnostic-only change**. The sidecar owns the local
shutdown signal and its pending waiters. Record that state once at the
first shutdown request. Do not add retries or change deadlines without
evidence. This supports each provider that uses this sidecar. It
preserves company/task/run authority, approval checks, tool admission
and cleanup ownership. It does not resolve or claim recovery of the
original read stalls.

## What Changed

- Emit `sidecar_shutdown_requested` through the existing diagnostic
stream and stderr before shutdown can remove waiters.
- Record pending tool, input, permission and completion-normalization
counts. Include at most 16 oldest tool calls with elapsed time and a
SHA-256 call ID. Exclude arguments, results, operation names and raw
call IDs.
- Add real sidecar process tests for EOF and both shutdown signals.
Check successful resolution, cancelled calls, pending-call rejection,
provider cleanup and sidecar exit with code 0 and no signal before
fallback cleanup.
- Document the record and its limits. Saved session formats and
previous-release behavior stay unchanged.

## Verification

- Candidate: `85a929eef87d5f775bbed9f2c98409432c86c702`. The baseline
replay uses an isolated detached checkout at the baseline SHA with the
exact candidate regression file.
- Baseline red: the three process regressions failed because the
expected shutdown record was absent. The sidecar initialized, handled
calls and shut down before each assertion.
- Unchanged process regressions pass with the implementation. The
focused sidecar and snapshot suites passed: 117 tests, one unrelated
macOS candidate-admission test skipped on Linux x64.
- `cd packages/paperclip-runner && pnpm exec vitest run
src/cli/acpx-runtime-sidecar.test.ts
src/cli/acpx-sidecar-shutdown.test.ts`
- `cd packages/paperclip-runner && node --test
test/acpx-sidecar-contract.test.mjs`: 16 passed.
- `cd packages/paperclip-runner && pnpm exec tsc -p tsconfig.json
--noEmit`: passed after building the local eval-kernel dependency.
- `git diff --check`: passed.
- These tests use the real sidecar pipe and process boundary with a
controlled provider host. Independent outcome and cleanup files prove
rejection and process cleanup. They do not exercise a live authenticated
Claude/staging run or prove deployed recovery.
- The local preflight could not build Rust because this host has no
Cargo. CI must supply the applicable Rust/build checks. At head
`85a929eef87d5f775bbed9f2c98409432c86c702`, all 61 check runs are
complete: 58 passed and three conditional jobs skipped. The legacy Snyk
status passed. Greptile is 5/5 with both threads resolved. [CI
result](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42630335496).

## Risks

- The controller can stop reading before it receives the diagnostic
frame. Stderr is an additional path, not a delivery guarantee.
- EOF records a local pipe closure. It cannot identify the upstream
controller cause by itself.
- Hashed IDs require offline hashing of the existing tool-call journal
for correlation. At most 16 samples are retained; counts include the
full pending population.
- No persistent state, retry, cancellation or authorization contract
changes.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 e5abcbf7a9 fix(native): release a restart claim that lapsed during a failed preparation (#20529)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - After a restart, native restart recovery claims an unfinished run
and prepares it again on the same heartbeat run.
> - The restart claim holds a lease on the run's native coordinator row.
For a remote claim with durable authority, the lease is 60 s.
> - When that preparation fails, the failure path first preserves the
remote workspace. Then it settles the run.
> - When preparation outlived the claim lease, preservation took the
run's own lapsed claim for another owner. It threw
`NativeWorkspaceFinalizationBusyError`, and the execution returned
without settling. The run stayed `running` with no event until a later
scan reclaimed it (4.5 min in one wave, never in another).
> - This pull request releases exactly that lapsed claim and asks
restart recovery to decide on the run right away. It also logs the cause
when the failure path defers.
> - The benefit is that a failed restart-claim preparation is reclaimed
or blocked visibly within seconds, instead of hanging.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20514 (the same restart-chaos investigation).

**What happened?**
In restart-chaos wave `w-20261110T101517-s11936` (Daytona R1, K2, ST1),
run `9d39550a` got a `bootstrap_incomplete` restart claim (generation
3). Its `heartbeat.prepare.run_output` step waited 141 s through an ST1
storage outage. The 60 s claim lease lapsed meanwhile, and the begin
failed with `run_log_writer_authority_lost` when storage came back. The
inner failure path then called `preserveNativeFailedWorkspace`. Its
`ownsClaim` check required an unexpired lease, so the run's own claim
counted as another owner and the call threw
`NativeWorkspaceFinalizationBusyError`.
`preserveNativeWorkspaceOnFailure` set `nativeOwnershipHeld` and the
execution returned before `runCompletion.failRun`. No failure was
recorded, and nothing was logged. The run stayed `running` until a later
scan reclaimed it 4.5 minutes later. In a second wave no such scan came,
and the run stayed `running` for 30 minutes.

**Expected behavior**
A failed preparation must settle or retry, or be claimed promptly by its
next owner. It must not stay `running` with no record.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Claim a remote native run for restart recovery.
2. Keep its preparation busy past the 60 s claim lease, for example with
a storage outage during `runOutput.begin`.
3. Let preparation fail. The run stays `running` with no failure event.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at 23fa37f5bb.

## What Changed

- `native-execution-lease.ts`: new `releaseLapsedNativeRestartClaim`. It
is one conditional UPDATE that releases the claim only when the run is
`running`, the coordinator is `observed` with no result, and it still
names this exact `leaseOwner`, `controllerGeneration` and `attempt` with
an expired lease. A successor claim, a result, or a live lease leaves
the row unchanged.
- `heartbeat.ts`: when failed-workspace preservation defers on a
restart-claim execution, the failure path tries that release. If it
succeeds, the execution schedules a restart-recovery pass for the run
(`scheduleNativeSessionResumeDispatch(..., "restart")`) after it leaves
`activeRunExecutions`. Recovery then reclaims the run, or blocks it with
a named reason, right away. The path also logs the redacted cause, the
claim kind and whether the claim lapsed. Before, this return was silent.
- `preserveNativeFailedWorkspace` is unchanged. It still refuses an
expired claim (`refuses a stale expired recovery claim`).
- New `heartbeat-restart-claim-lapse.test.ts`. A restart-claim execution
whose preparation fails after its claim lease lapsed, on a run with a
prepared remote workspace, gets an immediate new restart-recovery
decision. It failed before the change: the run stayed `running` with the
lapsed claim and recovery answered `controller_still_alive`.

Not in this PR: renewing the claim lease during preparation for
`bootstrap_incomplete` claims (recovery.ts). Another restart-chaos fix
owns that change. This PR makes sure a lapsed claim's failure is handed
back at once either way.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-restart-claim-lapse.test.ts`: passed. Without
the heartbeat change it times out.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-failed-workspace-recovery.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-execution-lease.test.ts`: passed (195
tests across the four files).
- `cd server && pnpm typecheck`: no errors.
- Live Daytona proof uses `--native-trigger` from #20538. Results follow
in a comment.

## Risks

- Low risk. The release matches only the exact lapsed claim of a
running, result-less, `observed` run in one statement. A takeover
between the check and the release changes the owner or generation, so
the release does nothing.
- The run is not settled by this execution. Restart recovery makes the
decision under its own rules, which is the same path a later sweep would
take.
- Previous-release story: no persisted shape or identity changes. Rows
saved by the previous release are read and released the same way.

## Model Used

execution in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude c58356003f fix(native): give run finalization its own retry budget (#20555)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs save an accepted result. Then a finalizer applies that
result to the issue.
> - After a control-plane restart, recovery can resume the same run.
Each resume uses one provider attempt (`coordinator.attempt`).
> - The finalizer used the same `coordinator.attempt` value as its own
retry budget. After three resumes, `attempt` was 3. So the first
transient finalization failure made the coordinator `terminal_failure`.
> - The result was then lost: the issue stayed `in_review` and no Retry
was available. This breaks the rule that a restart must not leave a task
stuck.
> - This pull request gives finalization its own retry count. Provider
attempts no longer use up finalization retries.
> - The benefit: a resumed run that finishes its turn also finishes its
task, and finalization stays bounded.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In restart-chaos wave `w-20261110T044338-s20385`, task t03 (local,
Codex, three K1 SIGKILL restarts, `--db-pressure 4`), recovery resumed
run `d5d0e839` three times (`providerAttempt: 3`). The resumed turn
completed and the server logged `run.result.accepted`, and the run ended
`succeeded`. The first finalization hit `NativeStatusRaceError` three
times under row contention. `recordRetryableFailure` then compared
`coordinator.attempt` (3) with its limit of 3 and wrote
`terminal_failure` / `native_finalization_retry_exhausted`. The run's
`execution.nextAction` is "Reassess against the latest authoritative
issue status version.", which only the `status_cas_exhausted` branch
writes. The second finalize call 2 s later got
`native_finalization_terminal_failure` from `claimCoordinator`. The
issue stayed `in_review` with `canRetry=false`.

**Expected behavior**
A transient finalization failure must stay retryable. The finalizer must
apply the saved result without another provider turn. Finalization must
still have a limit.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Resume a native run until its coordinator `attempt` is 3, for example
with three restarts.
2. Let the resumed run save an accepted result.
3. Make the first finalization fail with a retryable error.
4. Before this fix, the coordinator goes directly to `terminal_failure`.
The new test
`server/src/__tests__/native-finalization-retry-budget.test.ts`
reproduces this order.

**Paperclip version or commit**
The wave ran at e2b0290213. The bug is still on master at 902f376796. I
found no later merged PR that changes this check.

## What Changed

- `native-run-finalizer.ts`: `recordRetryableFailure` counts failed
finalizations of the saved result in
`heartbeat_runs.result_json.finalizationFailureCount`. It ends retries
after 3 failures. It no longer reads `coordinator.attempt`, which counts
provider attempts. The count goes on the run because each claim clears
the coordinator's `failure_detail`. Workspace-scope failures keep their
existing `workspaceFinalizeAttempt` budget.
- New regression test `native-finalization-retry-budget.test.ts`: a
coordinator saved at `attempt: 3` with no count stays
`retryable_failure` after the first failure. It goes to
`terminal_failure` only after the third failure.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/native-finalization-retry-budget.test.ts
src/__tests__/native-finalization-recovery.test.ts`: 37 tests pass.
- The new test fails on the unchanged finalizer (`terminal_failure`
received, `retryable_failure` expected). It passes with the fix.
- `pnpm verify` (selected tests).
- I did not run a live chaos replay. The evidence is the wave's run
events, its server log, and the code path.

## Risks

- Low risk. The only behavior change: runs that used provider attempts
now get their full 3 finalization retries.
- Previous-release story: rows that an older server saved have no
`finalizationFailureCount`. Their count starts at 0, so they get at most
3 more finalization tries, with no provider work. A coordinator that an
older server already set to `terminal_failure` stays terminal. This PR
migrates nothing.
- If another writer replaces `result_json` without spreading it, the
count can reset. That allows only a few more cheap retries, 30 s apart.
It cannot cause an unbounded loop unless the overwrite repeats.
- Not addressed here: when finalization really runs out of retries for a
succeeded run, the issue still rests `in_review` with a board recovery
card and no Retry. A safe Retry for that case must re-finalize the saved
result, not start a new provider run. That needs a separate change.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 bd30ef8510 perf(chat): authorize the waits of an issue page with one read (#20551)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents can work on tasks that start from an external chat, such as
Slack. When the agent waits for the next chat message, the task shows
"in review" with an external response wait.
> - Issue lists and inbox attention show these waits. To show a wait,
the server checks that the chat conversation is still authorized: the
messages, the destination, the endpoint, and each person who wrote.
> - The server did this check one time for each waiting task, and it
started all the checks at the same time. A page with 19 waits sent 19
copies of the message-link statement at the same moment, each on its own
pool connection, and then 19 copies of each policy read.
> - On a hosted database, 19 identical copies of this statement were
active at the same moment, about 670 ms each. They were 19 of the 20
active queries.
> - This pull request reads the messages of all waits of a page with one
statement and shares the policy reads between the waits. Each wait gets
the same authorization result as before.
> - The benefit is fewer statements and fewer connections for each issue
page, so one page cannot fill the pool with copies of one read.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20400 (shares wait reads between the callers of one request; this
change removes the per-wait fan-out inside that shared read).
Refs #18966 (reuses the prepared message-link statement; this change
keeps that statement for single runs).

**What happened**

`listExternalReviewWaits` ran `authorizeChatConversationForBoundRun` one
time for each waiting task, inside `Promise.all`. Each call sends the
message-link statement, then a resource read, and three reads for each
person. A page with N waits sent N copies of each statement at the same
time, on up to N pool connections.

**Expected behavior**

One issue page sends one message-link statement for all of its waits. A
resource or a person that is common to many waits is read one time. The
authorization result of each wait does not change.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Put many tasks of one company in review with an external chat
response wait.
2. Open the issue list or the inbox.
3. Look at the active statements of the database. One copy of the
message-link statement runs for each wait.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/native-runtime/chat-attachment-reuse.ts`:
- Split `authorizeChatConversationForBoundRun` into steps: read the
bound provider and wake comments, read the message rows, and apply the
policy to the rows (`authorizeBoundRunLinks`). The single-run path uses
the same prepared statement, the same lock modes and the same policy
code as before.
- Move the message-link join and its policy filters to one query
builder, `boundRunLinksQuery`. The single-run statement and the batch
statement both use it.
- Add `authorizeChatConversationsForBoundRuns(db, companyId, runs)`. It
is read-only and takes no locks. It reads the messages of all runs with
one statement, then gives each run only the rows that the single-run
statement returns for that run (same issue, agent, provider and
comments). The runs share each distinct resource and principal read.
Each run gets its conversation, or `null` for a policy denial. Other
errors are thrown, as before.
- Add `isBoundChatAuthorizationDenial` for the three policy denial
errors.
- `server/src/services/native-runtime/external-review-wait.ts`:
`listExternalReviewWaits` uses the batch authorization. The inherited
GitHub review-wait reads do not change.
- `server/src/__tests__/batched-chat-authorization.integration.test.ts`:
new tests on real PostgreSQL. For each case, the batch result must equal
the result of separate single-run reads. The cases include each denial:
a missing or foreign comment, no comments, no execution marker, a wrong
provider, agent or issue, a person without a link or without a
membership, a viewer member, a revoked link, a disabled or unavailable
destination, a paused endpoint, a closed conversation, an unprocessed
delivery, a delivery without a person, and a verifying endpoint. A test
also makes sure that one person's decision never applies to another
person in the same batch, and that a batch sends one message-link
statement.
- `scripts/benchmark-chat-bound-authorization.ts`: a local benchmark
that loads the pre-fix modules from a baseline commit, checks that both
versions return the same waits, and measures them.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/batched-chat-authorization.integration.test.ts
src/__tests__/prepared-chat-authorization.integration.test.ts` passes
(10 tests).
- Mutation check: when I removed the issue filter from the per-run row
selection, or shared one principal decision for all people of an
endpoint, the new tests failed (1 and 3 failures).
- Related suites pass: `heartbeat-reviewed-chat-binding`,
`external-chat-wait`, `preserved-native-response-wait`,
`chat-attachment-reuse` and `external-review-wait` (392 tests).
- `pnpm verify` asks for broader verification because the change adds a
file under `scripts/`. Required CI supplies that coverage.
- Benchmark: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx
../scripts/benchmark-chat-bound-authorization.ts
--baseline-ref=f4337bb5fb` (the measured pre-fix commit)

Benchmark fixture (synthetic, local PostgreSQL 18.1, pool of 10): one
company, one Slack endpoint, 20 tasks waiting for a chat response from 5
people, 4 of those waits denied (the person is a suspended member), and
2,000 earlier conversations with 50,000 processed deliveries (6 KiB
events, 419 MB). Both versions return the same 16 waits. 15 alternating
pairs after warm-up:

| One issue page (20 waits) | Before | After |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Statements sent | 101 | 18 |
| Message-link statements | 20 | 1 |
| Server time of the message-link statements | 0.50 ms (sum of 20) |
0.13 ms |
| Page time, median (min to max) | 8.86 ms (6.94 to 12.05) | 4.05 ms
(3.62 to 5.54) |
| 8 pages at the same time, median (min to max) | 54.18 ms (48.36 to
89.24) | 14.99 ms (12.60 to 19.59) |

## Risks

- The batch must give each wait the same result as a separate read. The
batch statement uses the same join and policy filters. It then selects
each run's rows with the equality filters of the single-run statement.
The policy code is the same function for both paths. The tests compare
both paths for each denial case.
- Shared reads: the batch reads each resource and each person one time.
All reads are plain reads with no locks, as before. A policy change that
occurs during one page read can now apply to all waits of the page at
the same time, instead of to some of them.
- An invalid wake comment id in one wait makes the whole page read fail.
This was already true: the failure of one wait rejected the whole
`Promise.all`.
- The single-run path (attachment reuse, status decisions, run
preparation and others) keeps its prepared statement and lock modes. The
order of the conditions in its WHERE clause changed; the conditions are
the same.
- Not proven: why each copy took about 670 ms on the hosted database.
Locally one copy takes about 0.03 ms with the expected index plan. The
likely causes are the burst of copies on a small compute and cold pages.
Verify after deployment that the statement runs at most one time for
each issue page request.
- No migration and no schema change.

DottaandClaude b004519fde docs(agents): shorten AGENTS.md and move data-path detail to a scoped rule (#20557)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - `AGENTS.md` is the instruction file that each human and AI
contributor reads before a change
> - The file had 311 lines, and most of the text applied to only a few
areas of the repository
> - The file told each contributor to read five documents before every
change and to treat `doc/SPEC-implementation.md` as the build contract
> - The file listed 4 of the 12 rules in `rules/`, so the list was
already out of date
> - This pull request states contributor ownership, makes the code and
tests the source of truth, and moves path-specific detail into a scoped
rule
> - The benefit is a shorter file that agents load on every session,
with detail that loads only for the files it applies to

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Issue type**

Outdated or unclear contributor documentation.

**Where is the issue?**

`AGENTS.md` at the repository root.

**What's wrong?**

- The file told contributors to read five documents in order before each
change.
- The file made `doc/SPEC-implementation.md` the build contract and part
of the definition of done. The maintainer considers that document
outdated.
- The file kept a manual list of scoped rules. The list named 4 of the
12 rules.
- Rule 7 (the three data paths) used about 40 lines. The rule applies
only to telemetry, observability, and run-log files.
- The agent preflight instruction was in the verification section, not
in the setup section.
- The design system section had no number and came after the definition
of done.

**Suggested fix**

Keep in `AGENTS.md` only the text that applies to every change. Move
path-specific text to `rules/` and point to `doc/` for detail.

## What Changed

- Added an ownership statement at the top of `AGENTS.md`.
- Section 1 now says that the code and tests are the source of truth.
The spec documents are background.
- Removed the spec from the definition of done and from rule 4.
- Section 2 is now a table that maps a type of change to the document to
read.
- Removed the manual rule list. The instruction to read each matching
rule in `rules/*.mdc` stays.
- Moved agent preflight to section 4. The database reset step now says
that it deletes local data.
- Rule 7 is now a short summary. The full text is in the new
`rules/data-paths.mdc`.
- Added `rules/data-paths.mdc` to `.greptile/files.json` with the same
scope as the rule globs.
- `CONTRIBUTING.md` now links to the new rule.
- Section 7 is now the default command and six labelled rules. Maps and
Storybook are one subsection.
- The design system text is now a subsection of section 9.
- Section numbers did not change, because code comments cite `AGENTS.md
§5.7` and `§6`.

## Verification

- Open `AGENTS.md` and confirm that each link and each path resolves. A
local script checked this.
- Compare `rules/data-paths.mdc` with the old rule 7 text. The
definitions and review levels are the same.
- Confirm that `.greptile/files.json` is valid JSON and that the new
scope matches the rule globs.
- No source code changed. No test suite ran locally.

## Risks

- Contributors no longer treat the spec as a requirement. A change can
now differ from the spec without an update to the spec.
- An agent that does not read scoped rules gets only the summary of the
three data paths. The summary keeps the review level for each path.
- Two Storybook instructions now live only in `maps/README.md` and
`maps/storybook-map/README.md`.

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic), in Claude Code with tool use.
- `claude-opus-5-5` added the ownership line and did the first review.
- `claude-fable-5-2` wrote the restructure and this pull request.

DottaandPaperclip bf0220d34a perf(workspaces): migrate with one archive and no readback (#20554)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip coordinates agents and keeps their workspace files.
> - A legacy workspace must move from a local volume to object storage.
> - The importer creates an archive, downloads and restores it, and
captures the source again.
> - Parent imports also download and recapture children that already
have committed snapshots.
> - This repeated work makes the one-time migration slow.
> - This change copies each source file once and trusts the upload
acknowledgement.
> - Existing source locks and atomic publication still own the
migration.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The one-time migration of legacy local and Git workspaces to durable
snapshots.

**Current behavior**

Each workspace is captured twice and restored as a test during
migration. Parent imports also read back already imported child
snapshots. Capture hashes source files before writing them and scans
them again afterward.

**Proposed behavior**

Build one archive from one source-file read, encrypt it, upload it, and
publish its reference. Trust the upload acknowledgement. Reuse journaled
uploads after an interrupted process. Retain committed child snapshots
by database reference.

**Reason and benefit**

Remove repeated source reads, temporary copies, complete downloads, and
recursive child verification. The tests assert one capture, one upload,
and zero migration downloads.

**Breaking changes**

The archive format stays compatible. File hashes required by current
readers are computed inline during the copy. There is no preliminary
file-hashing pass. Existing readers can cold-restore the result.

Related work: #19817 and #20447.

## What Changed

- Add single-pass capture that fills fixed-length checksum fields in the
existing archive header after copying.
- Remove migration readback, test extraction, fresh-source recapture,
and Git integrity scans.
- Compute the encrypted archive checksum while writing it.
- Reuse acknowledged and journaled uploads without rebuilding or
downloading them.
- Retain already imported children through their database bindings.
Remove the recursive payload verification cache.
- Keep company checks, source and writer locks, recovery bindings,
journal identities, cancellation, and atomic publication.
- Bind archived repository intent paths to the operation without
reconstructing an archive to check them.
- Update the migration contract and the affected tests.

## Verification

- Node 24.22.2 and pnpm 9.15.4 on macOS arm64.
- At e876dbdc: focused capture, migration, lost-acknowledgement, and
frozen old-reader compatibility checks: 11 passed.
- Real source-file open counts prove one read per file. The single-pass
archive matches the existing archive bytes and manifest.
- Cold restore preserves staged and unstaged Git work, untracked files,
executable modes, and confined symlinks.
- At e876dbdc: full archive and cohort suites: 147 passed.
- At e876dbdc: server layered typecheck passed.
- At 58e5c229: four review fixes add Git source-root confinement,
archived lost-acknowledgement reuse, old-journal intent binding, and
wrapped-key readability. New focused regressions are included;
current-revision CI is pending.
- Post-review local runs were inconclusive: Git cases timed out in both
existing strict and single-pass modes, and DB tests stalled before
assertions. The unchanged earlier passes are not presented as
final-revision passes. Required CI will verify the final revision.
- Earlier full migration, snapshot storage, and nested-reference suites
passed before the compatibility refinement. Required CI supplies fresh
broad coverage for the final revision.
- Initial compatibility checks exposed the need to retain the existing
file-hash header. Inline checksums fixed that failure without another
source-file pass.
- Initial tests that required repeated verification were updated to the
requested copy-once contract. Upload-time database mutations still test
the retained business-state guards.

## Risks

- Migration now trusts the storage acknowledgement and cooperating
writer fences. It does not prove the uploaded bytes with a download or
detect later local edits with a second capture.
- Already imported child objects are trusted without another object
read. Their database bindings remain checked.
- Original source files remain available for recovery.
- This adds no automatic migration, server pin, or serving deployment.
Ordinary run capture and authenticated restore retain their existing
behavior.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with code editing and terminal tools. The
exact runtime model revision and context window are not exposed in this
session.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 d0057ee384 test(restart-chaos): fire a planned restart at native start (#20538)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The restart-chaos harness (`tests/restart-chaos`) restarts the
server during real agent runs and grades the recovery.
> - Several native recovery fixes only apply when a restart lands after
the run has started its native runner. Examples: a restart claim whose
lease lapses in a storage outage (#20529), and a K2 seconds after native
start on a remote sandbox.
> - On Daytona R1, workspace preparation takes 100-250 s and varies a
lot under storage faults. A time-based fault and `--storage-trigger
run-log` both land while the run is still preparing. In three waves,
none reached native start.
> - This pull request adds `--native-trigger`, which fires the planned
fault a set delay after the run's own `native.process_start_requested`
event or first provider event.
> - The benefit is that a wave can reliably restart the server at native
start and prove those recovery paths live.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20529, Refs #20514

**What happened?**
Waves `w-20261110T113240-s11936`, `w-20261110T120901-s11937` and
`w-20261110T124555-s11936` (Daytona R1, K2) were meant to restart the
server after native start. Every K2 landed during remote workspace
preparation, before native runtime selection. The drain took the legacy
interrupt path, so the native recovery path under test never ran.

**Expected behavior**
A wave can fire its planned fault a known number of seconds after the
run starts its native runner.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run a Daytona R1 wave with `--faults K2 --fault-after-seconds 110`,
optionally with `--storage-faults ST1`.
2. Read `server.log`. The graceful drain lists the runs under
`interruptedRunIds`, not `restartSuspendedRunIds`.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at adb0e77a4c.

## What Changed

- New `tests/restart-chaos/native-trigger.ts`: `--native-trigger
native-start|provider-event[+<seconds>]` parsing and a `NativeTrigger`.
The trigger arms each task's planned fault at its planned time. Each
wave loop pass, it reads the task's running runs' events through the
board API with a per-run cursor. It fires the fault the given delay
after the first matching event created after arming. It records
receipts, misses (`task_rested`, `no_matching_event`), the fault id, a
summary section and a shortfall check.
- `config.ts`, `types.ts`, `main.ts`: registry lines only. They add the
option, construct the trigger next to `--storage-trigger`, arm faults
instead of firing them by time, tick the trigger in the wave loop, keep
the loop alive while it fires, and write `native-trigger.json` plus the
summary section.
- New `tests/restart-chaos/native-trigger.test.ts`: parsing and
conflicts, event matching, firing after the delay, ignoring events from
before arming and from non-running runs, waiting while another fault
runs, misses, and fault linking.
- `tests/restart-chaos/README.md`: a "Restart at native start" section.

## Verification

- `PAPERCLIP_IN_WORKTREE=false npx vitest run --config
tests/restart-chaos/vitest.config.ts
tests/restart-chaos/native-trigger.test.ts
tests/restart-chaos/storage-trigger.test.ts`: 16 passed. The new tests
fail on `master`, where the option and module do not exist.
- `node scripts/typecheck-test-projects.mjs tests/restart-chaos`:
passed.
- Test-only harness change; no product code changes. A live wave with
this trigger follows as the gate wave for #20529.

## Risks

- Low risk. This is test harness only. A wave without `--native-trigger`
takes no new code path except a no-op `tick` call.
- The trigger polls the board API once per wave loop pass (1 s) for at
most the armed tasks' running runs. That adds a little load on the
server under test.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 db0d523bc8 fix(recovery): start a Retry after a restart cut off a relaunch whose earlier Runners were proven stopped (#20537)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - When a run fails, a person presses Retry and expects a new run to
start
> - Before a native Retry starts, Paperclip must prove that the previous
run's Runner and provider stopped, so two providers never work on the
same task
> - When the server is killed after it asked for a Runner launch but
before it recorded the Runner's process, there is no PID to check.
Paperclip then proves the stop from two facts: no Runner process for the
run exists on this host, and the run never saved Runner state
> - A run that already crossed restarts did save Runner state, from its
earlier Runners. Those Runners were proven stopped, with stop receipts.
The proof still refused, because it only asked whether any state
belonged to the run
> - The Retry returned 202, but the task then waited for a board
operator to confirm the stop (`confirm_run_stopped`,
`process_identity_missing`), until the task timed out
> - This pull request lets the proof accept Runner state that only the
earlier, proven-stopped Runners could have written
> - The benefit is that a Retry after a restart-interrupted relaunch
starts right away, with no operator step

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**
Server native-run stop proof for a Retry or a new message
(`server/src/services/native-local-process-stop.ts`,
`unidentifiedLocalRunnerProvenAbsent` in
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.ts`).

**Problem or motivation**
Restart-chaos wave `w-20261110T111245-s701`, task t03 (local, codex, C1,
K1/K2, `--storage s3 --storage-faults ST7`): run `f1ffeed3` crossed
three restarts. Its event history is:

1. Launch request, process identity, stop receipt (first Runner, killed
by K1)
2. Launch request, process identity, stop receipt (second Runner, killed
by K1)
3. Launch request at 11:13:54.999, then a K1 kill before the Runner's
identity was recorded
4. A fourth controller resumed the run, a K2 drain interrupted its
preparation, and the run failed (`adapter_failed`, fixed separately by
#20514)

The person's Retry at 11:14:37 returned 202. Admission reached
`recordUnidentifiedLocalRunnerStop`. No Runner process for the run
existed, but the Runner state root held `control-plane-state.json` with
this run's id, written by Runners 1 and 2. The proof refused, the issue
was saved as `waiting_for_user` / `confirm_run_stopped` /
`process_identity_missing`, and the wake stayed deferred until the task
timed out about 15 minutes later. The harness graded
`R3:retry_no_new_run`.

**Proposed solution**
A Runner persists its command journal (`runner/runner-state.json`)
before any command takes effect, and a provider starts only from a
command. Its `runner/process-lineage/` writer marker is written before
any supervised process starts. So a launch whose Runner never wrote
either file after the launch request cannot own a provider.

- The launch request event now records `requestedAt`, taken on the
launching host just before any backend may spawn.
- `recordUnidentifiedLocalRunnerStop` passes that time on only when the
latest process event before the request is a stop receipt (every earlier
Runner of the run was proven stopped) or there is none.
- `unidentifiedLocalRunnerProvenAbsent` then accepts saved state of this
run only when `runner/runner-state.json` (if present) and every
`runner/process-lineage/` entry were last modified before `requestedAt`.
A file time that falls on a whole second (a coarse-timestamp filesystem)
must predate the request by 2 s. The existing checks stay: no `--run-id`
Runner process on this host, the launching host matches, and no remote
lease.

**Previous-release story**
A launch request saved by the previous release has no `requestedAt`. It
keeps today's proof: it is accepted only without saved Runner state of
the run, otherwise the board shows the operator confirmation. Nothing is
migrated or rewritten.

**Alternatives considered**
- Treating a proven-gone controller as proof that its Runner stopped.
Local Runners outlive a controller restart (graceful drains reattach
them), so a gone controller says nothing about its Runner or provider.
- Running `paperclip-runnerd reap-lineage` for each writer marker. It
needs a Runner PID and binary on the hot Retry path, and a Runner whose
journal write failed has no marker to find.

## What Changed

- `native-session-executor.ts`: the `native.process_start_requested`
payload adds `requestedAt`. `unidentifiedLocalRunnerProvenAbsent` takes
`earlierRunnersStoppedBefore` and accepts this run's saved state only
when the Runner journal and lineage entries predate it
(`runnerStateUnchangedSince`).
- `native-local-process-stop.ts`: `recordUnidentifiedLocalRunnerStop`
reads the last two process events and passes the request time only after
a stop receipt (or no earlier launch).
- `explicit-native-continuation.test.ts`: new embedded-Postgres case. A
native run with a proven-stopped Runner, saved Runner state, and a later
unidentified relaunch: the Retry is admitted and the stop is recorded.
It stays blocked (`process_identity_missing`) when the Runner journal or
a lineage entry changed after the request, when the request has no
`requestedAt` (previous release), when the earlier Runner has no stop
receipt, when a whole-second file time is within 2 s of the request, or
when a `--run-id` Runner process is alive. A whole-second time 3.5 s
before the request is admitted.

## Verification

- Red/green: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/explicit-native-continuation.test.ts -t "proven stopped"`.
On master the `proven` case fails (admission returns null); with the fix
all 8 cases pass.
- Related suites: `explicit-native-continuation.test.ts`,
`issue-confirm-run-stopped-routes.test.ts`, and the unidentified-Runner
and stop cases of `native-session-executor.test.ts`.
- Live, the s701 seed with the original wave's flags (`--env local
--adapters codex,claude --workloads A1,C1 --faults K1,K2 --triggers
time,result --concurrency 4 --tasks 4 --seed 701 --storage s3
--storage-faults ST7 --keep`):
- `w-20261110T131243-s701` (final head) and `w-20261110T125259-s701`,
master plus this fix plus #20514 merged locally: 4/4 pass each, every
task crossed a restart, no R3 signature, 0 speed breaches.
- `w-20261110T125616-s701`, master plus this fix without #20514: t01 and
t02 pass. t03 and t04 hit the drain-during-preparation failure that
#20514 fixes (`R3:retry_needed`). The Retry started a new run each time
and both tasks finished (`retry_no_new_run` is gone). New launch
requests carry `requestedAt`.
- The restart timings of these replays did not land in the exact gap
between a launch request and its process identity. The red/green test
covers that window.

## Risks

- Low. The change only widens one fail-closed proof, and only for launch
requests saved by this release, after a stop receipt, with Runner files
older than the request. The proof compares file times with a time taken
on the same host. A backwards wall-clock step between the request and a
Runner's first write could hide that write. The `--run-id` process check
still has to pass, so that Runner must also be gone.
- The Retry path adds one `lstat` per file in a small directory. It adds
no wait and no work before `turn.start`.

faae6b919f fix(runner): explain task scope on missing tool inputs (#19774)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents read saved task documents through native tools.
> - Active-task tools use the task bound to the run. Other task tools
require a task UUID.
> - Agents sometimes call the second set with only a document key.
> - The validator rejects the call, but gives no instruction about the
active-task tool.
> - This pull request adds scope instructions to the tool schemas and
returns them for missing required fields.
> - Agents can correct a rejected call. Task selection and permission
checks stay in place.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Two observed document reads sent only `{"key":"sentry-case"}` to
`read_task_document`. Each returned `Invalid tool input: / must have
required property 'taskId'`. Each later retry with a task UUID returned
without an error.

Pattern: [Task reads fail when agents omit
taskId](https://www.braintrust.dev/app/Paperclip/p/Paperclip%20Staging/patterns/703d8c29-6a40-4aa2-b2c6-e2c5c36b5657).
Related PR: #18824 changed document key validation. It does not address
task scope.

**Expected behavior**

The tool contract must state which task it reads. A missing-field error
must include the schema owner's recovery instructions. A retry must
still pass validation and task permission checks.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Call `read_task_document` through the MCP bridge with only a document
key.
2. Inspect the error sent to the caller.
3. Retry with an authorized task UUID. Confirm the returned document
belongs to that task.

### Hypothesis and thesis for a fix

Hypothesis: generic tool descriptions contribute to confusion between
active-task and explicit-task tools. An agent can also ignore a correct
schema. These tests do not measure the rate of model mistakes.

Thesis: Paperclip owns task scope instructions. Its five explicit-task
tools now describe the required UUID and the active-task alternative.
The two MCP transports return direct missing-property descriptions from
the admitted schema. The transports do not infer task IDs or apply
Paperclip task policy.

Proof: the same HTTP MCP regression fails on baseline
`f673bd3cb5b5b65ec51781e37355e168c3fe8ae4` and passes with the fix. It
still rejects before handler dispatch. An explicit retry reaches the
requested task. An isolated real API and PostgreSQL test checks the
saved revision, active-task selection, malformed UUIDs, and
cross-company denial through both transports.

## What Changed

- Add UUID and active-task guidance to `get_task`, `comment_on_task`,
and the three explicit-task document tools.
- Return bounded, distinct descriptions for up to three direct missing
required fields. Keep ordinary validation errors unchanged.
- Share this formatter between the Runner and OpenCode MCP bridges.
- Add transport regressions, real route and database checks, and tool
documentation.

## Verification

- Baseline red: both transport regressions return only the
required-property error and fail the recovery instruction assertion.
- Candidate green: 58 Runner and OpenCode transport and error formatter
tests pass on Linux with Node 24.22.2.
- Final-head server verification passed all 115 tests: 113 document-key
checks and two real API integration cases.
- The two local integration cases use real MCP HTTP, agent authority,
API routes, and disposable PostgreSQL. They read a selected other task
and its saved revision, read the active task separately, reject missing
IDs for all five tools, reject malformed UUIDs, and return 404 for a
foreign company task.
- Runner TypeScript typecheck and build pass.
- The full server typecheck passed on head
`03a37e9e50896416cfd45be33bf6dbe3e13169df` with
`PAPERCLIP_TYPECHECK_LOW_MEMORY=1 node scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs`.
The first run ended without a compiler diagnostic. Final-head CI passes
and Greptile is 5/5.
- Full preflight stops because cargo is absent. Rust checks were not run
locally.
- One existing delayed-body fetch test failed with a Node 25 fetch
runtime error. All transport tests pass on Node 24. The first
integration attempt used the wrong fixture return shape; the test was
corrected before the passing run.
- CI follow-up: the Runner test program reported four TS18046 errors
because `Response.json()` returns `unknown` under CI typings. Both tests
now declare the response type. `pnpm exec tsc -p tsconfig.test.json
--noEmit` passes, and both transport suites pass again (56 tests). Final
head `ffccebca19fe9e21a097829adc020679ffa7d86c` passes CI and Greptile
5/5.
- Review follow-up: the foreign task now has a saved document with a
distinct body. Both integration cases passed again after this test-only
change. The read must return 404 and must not return that body.
Current-head CI passes and Greptile is 5/5.
- Final CI:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42352822739 . All
required jobs passed for `ffccebca19fe9e21a097829adc020679ffa7d86c`.
Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved review thread.
- Real local API behavior is verified. External model behavior and
deployed recovery are not verified. No merge or deployment is included.

## Risks

- Missing-field errors now contain schema descriptions. The text is
limited to direct properties in the admitted schema, at most three
distinct descriptions and 1,000 characters each.
- Nested schemas and references do not get recovery text. Their
validation errors remain intact.
- Clearer instructions can help callers recover. They do not guarantee
that a model will choose the correct tool.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 via Codex, with tool use and code execution. The exact
deployment model ID and context window are not exposed to this session.

DottaandPaperclip cac82ed4d9 fix(ui): show parent tasks in responsive breadcrumbs (#20366)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and their work.
> - Tasks can have a parent task.
> - The task header does not show that parent in its navigation path.
> - On a phone, the header removes the task path and shows only the
current title.
> - Long parent and current titles must share the available space.
> - This pull request adds a parent link and limits each displayed task
title to 48 characters.
> - People can move to the parent and keep the current task number in
view.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The navigation path in a task header.

**Current behavior**

The global path omits the parent. The phone header shows only the
current task. Long parent titles cannot share the row safely.

**Proposed behavior**

Show the immediate parent before the current task. Limit each displayed
title to 48 Unicode code points, with an ellipsis. Limit the parent to
40% of the row. On phones, remove the collection link and parent number
so both titles and the current task number fit.

**Reason and benefit**

People can see the task context and open its parent. Full titles stay in
hover text and accessible names. Private parents have no link.

Related: #9302 adds project navigation. This change adds task parent
navigation.

## What Changed

- Add the immediate parent from the existing authorized ancestor
response to the global task path.
- Make parent and current titles shrink. Apply a 48-character display
limit without changing stored titles.
- Keep the current task number visible on phones. Keep private parent
labels noninteractive.
- Add ten Storybook scenarios with the production header. Cover linked
parents, long titles, phone widths, tablet width, dark theme, standalone
tasks, Mine source, and private parents on desktop and phones.
- Add regression tests and document the layout rules in DESIGN.md.
- Keep the source collection and filters when people follow the parent
link. Cover route state, stored state and legacy query links.
- Use the existing noninteractive lock chip for private parents. Hide
its parent number on phones. Refresh its control key when an open task
changes screen size. Both regressions failed before their fixes and pass
after them.
- Refresh the SDK public source registry after the master update. The
existing helper keeps all runtime and dependency pins unchanged. This
repairs three support tests that failed on stale master source
identities.

## Verification

- Focused UI tests: `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/BreadcrumbBar.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx` — 280 passed.
- UI typecheck: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm build-storybook` — passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed.
- Catalog checks and 30 map/catalog tests — passed.
- Chromium: all ten scenarios rendered with no page errors. Story play
functions finished. Checked 1440, 768, 390 and 320 pixel widths,
keyboard parent navigation, private parent links, title limits and
horizontal overflow.
- Private-parent browser check: resize an open task from 1440 to 320
pixels and back. The chip changes from the parent number to Private and
back. It remains noninteractive.
- Screenshots were captured in light and dark themes. They are task
evidence and are not committed.
- This verifies the header with fixture data and the page wiring with
mocked APIs. It does not claim live backend authorization or a pixel
baseline comparison. The static server returns 404 for optional shell
context reads. After keyboard navigation, destination task reads also
return 404 because the preview has no task backend. The header renders
and all play checks pass.
- Case discovery and OpenAPI tests: 47 passed.
- Current head: `e7a1ada02e75e9b2cbd5f6076ad6c113954f3a4b`. [CI run
42834603680](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42834603680)
passed. All 61 head check runs are complete: 58 passed and three
conditional jobs were skipped. The legacy Snyk status passed.
[Greptile](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/20366#issuecomment-6751938924)
reviewed this head at 5/5 with no actionable findings. All four inline
review threads are resolved.
- After the master update: all 280 UI tests, UI typecheck, token gates,
Storybook build, 30 catalog tests and ten Chromium stories pass. All six
screenshots match the saved images byte for byte.
- SDK and process support checks: 105 tests pass. The source pin helper
has eight passing tests. The three SDK failures reproduced before the
registry refresh and passed after it. The helper check reports no
remaining source drift and no runtime pin changes.
- The earlier case discovery failure reproduced before the summary
correction and passed after it. All server shards passed on the next
head. That CI run failed one unchanged Rust process-reaping test: its
owned tool stopped, but two unattributed orphan processes blocked
verification. The earlier CI run passed the same Rust inputs. Cross-test
process interference is possible; the historical log does not prove the
cause. The next CI run passed Rust. That run failed three SDK checks on
stale master source pins and one process inspection check. The source
pin repair is in this head. The process check passes locally, but the
earlier process inspection failure remains unexplained.
- The same prior run failed the cohort migration resume test. Its upload
barrier releases after five seconds; maximum uploads were seven and
three in the two attempts, below eight. Three server files also exceeded
the 180-second file budget. These test inputs come from master. A local
attempt could not reproduce that CI assertion because its child Git
command failed in this execution environment. Fresh CI 42834603680
passed these paths, including every server shard and Runner support. No
test or process safety check was weakened.

## Risks

- Breadcrumb titles display less text. Hover text and accessible names
retain the full title.
- The global path shows the immediate parent. People can follow parent
links through a deeper task tree.
- The shared breadcrumb component also serves other pages. Existing
header and agent-switcher tests pass.
- No schema, API behavior or stored title change.
- SDK source identities must match the integrated source. The registry
change uses the existing helper and preserves all runtime and dependency
pins.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The exact runtime model ID and context
window size are not exposed. Used reasoning, repository tools and
Chromium verification.

DottaandClaude 8d2bf78323 test(runner-e2e): resync the SDK public source pins with master (#20550)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The Runner support suite checks that the plugin SDK's public types
come only from reviewed source inputs, pinned by git blob hash in
`tests/runner-e2e/source-sdk-public-inputs.json`
> - #19614 landed those pins, generated against an older master; since
then `package.json` and ten files under `packages/shared/src` changed
> - So `source-sdk-public-type.test.ts` (2 tests) and
`source-sdk-evidence.test.ts` (1 test) fail the `ci / Runner support
suite` check on every PR merge ref
> - This pull request regenerates the source pins with the script made
for that job
> - The benefit is a green Runner support suite for every open PR again

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?** Since #19614 merged, `ci / Runner support suite`
fails on every PR (for example #20047 and #20538) with `SDK public
source proof unavailable` and `Source SDK evidence privacy check
failed`.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. On master at 902f376796, run `pnpm exec vitest run --config
tests/runner-e2e/vitest.config.ts source-sdk`.
2. Two tests in `source-sdk-public-type.test.ts` fail.

**Expected behavior** The source pins match the committed tree, and the
suite passes.

## What Changed

- `tests/runner-e2e/source-sdk-public-inputs.json`: source pins
regenerated with `node tests/runner-e2e/source-sdk-public-inputs.mjs
902f376796 --write` (11 changed blobs,
plus new source files). The script reports `runtimePinsChanged: false`:
the lock, compiler, parser and zod pins are unchanged.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run --config tests/runner-e2e/vitest.config.ts
source-sdk`: 5 files, 68 passed, 1 skipped (before: 2 failed).

## Risks

- Test registry only, no product code. The next change to a pinned input
under `packages/shared/src` or `packages/plugins/sdk/src` will need the
same resync, as before.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file editing, test execution).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 902f376796 fix(recovery): keep a remote restart claim's lease through slow preparation (#20540)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - After a restart, a remote run resumes on the same heartbeat run
under a restart claim: a lease on its native coordinator row, 60 s for a
remote claim (`REMOTE_CONTROLLER_LEASE_MS`)
> - Preparation then runs before the native executor takes its own lease
renewal. It includes the run-log begin and the workspace restore, which
can each wait out a storage outage for minutes (#20299)
> - Preparation renewed the claim only for `reattach_remote_runner`. A
`bootstrap_incomplete` or resume claim kept its 60 s lease with nothing
renewing it
> - So a preparation wait longer than a minute let the lease lapse. The
run failed at its next writer-authority check
(`run_log_writer_authority_lost`) the moment storage came back
> - This PR renews every remote restart claim during preparation. When
the same owner's executor claims at the next attempt, it takes over that
renewal
> - The benefit is that a resumed remote run survives a long storage
outage during preparation instead of failing as soon as storage returns

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In restart-chaos waves on Daytona R1 with `--storage s3 --storage-faults
ST1` and K2 at +110 s, a resumed `bootstrap_incomplete` run's
`heartbeat.prepare.run_output` ended `failed` right after the outage
ended:
- `w-20261110T101517-s11936` t01, run `9d39550a`. The claim was at
10:19:55 and the outage ended at 10:22:18.15. `run_output` failed at
10:22:18.17, after 141 s.
- `w-20261110T081647-s11936` t02, run `9da10424`. The claim was at
08:21:29 and the outage ended at 08:23:30.

During the outage the journal claim fails on its head `GET` before it
checks authority. The first attempt after the outage reaches
`claimFrom`'s `assertAuthority` (`run-log-authority.ts`), which requires
a live coordinator lease. That lease expired 60 s after the claim.

**Why not just widen the condition?** For a `bootstrap_incomplete`
claim, the executor's own claim moves the coordinator attempt to N+1
(`nextNativeProviderAttempt`). `startNativeSessionExecutionLeaseRenewal`
shares one renewal per lease owner and threw
`native_session_renewal_binding_changed` when the attempt differed. That
is presumably why preparation renewal was limited to reattach claims.

**Related:** #20460 (live status while a run waits out a storage
outage). #20514 settles a failure that this lapse used to leave silent.

## What Changed

- `heartbeat/recovery.ts`: start the preparation lease renewal for every
remote restart claim (`scope.remote`), not only
`reattach_remote_runner`.
- `native-runtime/native-execution-lease.ts`:
- When the same owner's executor starts its renewal at a higher attempt,
it takes over the shared renewal, rebinding the attempt and `onLost`. A
lower attempt or any other binding change still throws.
- A renewal that failed under the old binding is not counted as a loss.
- A failed renewal is not a loss when the coordinator shows the same
owner already at a higher attempt (the executor's claim committed while
the renewal was in flight). The renewal deadline still ends ownership if
no executor takes over.
- Tests: one recovery case and three lease-renewal cases (below).

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-execution-lease.test.ts
src/services/heartbeat/recovery.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-execution-lease-reacquire.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-lease-renewal.integration.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-preparation.integration.test.ts`:
143 pass. `npx tsc --noEmit`: pass.
- Red/green, recovery test "keeps a remote bootstrap restart claim
through preparation longer than its first lease, then hands it to the
next attempt": the claim's first lease ends 4 s in. Preparation runs
past it and the run-log writer authority still passes. Then the executor
claims attempt 2 and its renewal keeps extending the lease with no
detach.
  - Red with master's `recovery.ts`: the lease is never extended.
- Red with only the `recovery.ts` change:
`native_session_renewal_binding_changed`.
  - Green with both.
- Red/green, lease unit tests: handover to the next attempt (and refusal
of a lower one); a failure under the old binding is not a loss; a
failure while the coordinator shows the same owner at a higher attempt
is not a loss. All three fail on master.
- Live wave: results in a comment below.

## Risks

- Medium-low.
- The preparation renewal now runs for remote `bootstrap_incomplete` and
`resume_dead_runner` claims too. It renews the same coordinator row
under the same CAS conditions reattach claims already use.
- If preparation truly loses the lease (another owner takes it), its
`onLost` still runs (`detachNativeSessionsForRestart`) and authority
checks still fence writes.
- The new non-loss case applies only when the coordinator names this
exact owner at a higher attempt. The renewal deadline still bounds it.
- Previous-release state: this persists nothing new. A claim saved by
the previous release resumes unchanged; its preparation is simply
renewed now.

DottaandClaude 94cfb84150 fix(scripts): build the plugin SDK in the agent worktree preflight (#20473)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Contributors and agents prepare each new git worktree with `node
scripts/agent-preflight.mjs`
> - The server imports `@paperclipai/plugin-sdk` through its built
`dist`. The preflight did not build that `dist`.
> - On a fresh worktree, the server and the restart-chaos harness stop
at startup with `ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND` for
`server/node_modules/@paperclipai/plugin-sdk/dist/index.js`
> - The SDK exports `dist` on purpose: plugin workers load it under
plain Node. CI, `paperclipai run` and the typecheck scripts already
build it with `scripts/ensure-plugin-build-deps.mjs`.
> - This pull request makes the preflight run the same builder as a step
> - The benefit is that one preflight command gives a worktree that can
start the server and the harness

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
After `node scripts/agent-preflight.mjs` on a fresh worktree, `node
cli/node_modules/tsx/dist/cli.mjs tests/restart-chaos/main.ts ...` stops
at startup. The error is `ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND` for
`server/node_modules/@paperclipai/plugin-sdk/dist/index.js`, imported
from `server/src/services/reusable-sandbox-resume-error.ts`. The
workaround is `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk build`.

**Expected behavior**
The preflight prepares everything that the server needs to start. The
server and the harness import their modules without a manual build.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Make a new worktree from `origin/master`.
2. Run `node scripts/agent-preflight.mjs`.
3. See that `packages/plugins/sdk/dist` does not exist.
4. From `server/`, import
`./src/services/reusable-sandbox-resume-error.ts` with tsx. The import
fails with `ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND`.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`origin/master` at a5e01634f6.

## What Changed

- `scripts/agent-preflight.mjs`: add a `plugin-sdk` step after install.
It runs `scripts/ensure-plugin-build-deps.mjs`. That script builds
`@paperclipai/shared` and `@paperclipai/plugin-sdk`, and it skips them
when their content fingerprints match the last build. The step reports
`built` or `skipped`. It fails when the builder fails or when a
completion marker is missing after the build.
- The SDK build does not use the shared cross-worktree cache. Both
packages compile in about 1.6 s with the native compiler, so a cache
clone does not save time.
- `scripts/__tests__/agent-preflight.test.mjs`: new tests. They use the
real builder script with a stand-in compiler. They cover a fresh build,
a skip when sources do not change, a rebuild after a source change, a
rebuild when only the SDK `dist` is missing, a failed build, and missing
outputs. The file is added to `test:release-registry` next to
`agent-build-cache.test.mjs`.
- `doc/DEVELOPING.md`: the "Agent worktree preflight" section describes
the new step.

I checked the other option: change the SDK exports to `src`, as most
sibling packages do. I did not do that. Plugin workers load the SDK
under plain Node, and other tools already depend on the built `dist`. I
also checked the other workspace packages that the server and the
harness import. Only `@paperclipai/paperclip-runner` and
`@paperclipai/paperclip-eval-kernel` also export `dist`, and the
preflight already builds them. The harness builds its sandbox plugin
fixtures itself (`tests/restart-chaos/plugin-build.ts`).

## Verification

- Reproduced on a fresh worktree from `origin/master`: after the
preflight, `packages/plugins/sdk/dist` did not exist and the tsx import
of `server/src/services/reusable-sandbox-resume-error.ts` failed with
`ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND`.
- On a second fresh worktree with this change: the preflight printed
`plugin-sdk: built in 1.6s`. A second run printed `plugin-sdk: skipped`.
A tsx import of `reusable-sandbox-resume-error.ts` and
`server/src/app.ts` passed. A tsx import of every module that
`tests/restart-chaos/main.ts` imports passed. I did not run a harness
wave.
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/agent-build-cache.test.mjs
scripts/__tests__/agent-preflight.test.mjs
scripts/__tests__/ensure-plugin-build-deps.test.mjs`: 23 pass.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change affects only the local agent preflight. A fresh
preflight takes about 2 s more. A current worktree adds one fingerprint
check (about 0.1 s).
- The step uses the builder's lock. If another build in the same
worktree holds the lock, the step waits for it, as the other callers do.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, with tool use (shell
and file editing) in Claude Code.

f4337bb5fb test(evals): land the chat catalog eval harness on master (#19614)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The chat-feature evals measure whether agents complete real chat
requests through the product
> - The chat catalog eval harness and its repairs live on the
`chat-eval/master-candidate` branch, not on master
> - Today's work made 139 of 242 chat evals pass in verified single-case
live runs. Each product fix landed on master as its own pull request
> - The eval-side changes (setups, graders, fault seams, evidence
capture) still exist only on the candidate
> - This pull request lands the harness on master. Master stays the
source of truth for product behavior
> - The benefit is one tree: evals run against master commits, and
product fixes reach the evals as soon as they merge

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19441, Refs #19599, Refs #20270, Refs #20334, Refs #20342, Refs
#20344, Refs #20354, Refs #20360, Refs #20373, Refs #20382, Refs #20409

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The chat catalog eval harness and the product it evaluates live on a
long-running branch outside master. Eval fixes do not reach master, so
master-based eval runs use old setups and graders.

**Subsystem affected**
`tests/runner-e2e` chat catalog harness, plus a small set of product
changes that exist only on the candidate.

**Proposed change**
Land the harness on master. Every product fix from this eval work
already merged to master as its own pull request. Conflicts keep
master's product behavior.

## What Changed

- Most of the diff (808 of 851 files) is under `tests/runner-e2e/`:
chat-catalog domains, scenarios, descriptors, the TestOps manifest,
private evidence tooling, and their tests.
- Graders now check saved state, setup literals and rendered or clicked
links. Many keyword and regex checks on free-form replies are removed.
Each changed grader has a bumped `oracleVersion` and calibration tests
(a valid reply, a reworded valid reply, and broken variants that must
fail).
- The shared link helper `hasLink` no longer treats a list link (for
example `/COM/issues?view=mine`) as a link to every task without a URL
key.
- Setup fixes build real state through supported product routes: routine
history, agent grants through the board grant route, budget holds with a
real cap, and a storage-layer archive fault for
`inbox-search.archive-partial-failure`.
- Browser boundary journeys (sign-in, chat-disabled, onboarding) now
write the standard pass evidence files.
- Retargeted cases, approved by the maintainer:
`agent-chat.chat-disabled` (Conference Room gate),
`agents.restore-instructions` (no saved instruction history),
`access.manage-membership` (member permission edits stay board-only).
- The private evidence trusted files (`manual-private-handoff.ts`,
`manual-private-retention.ts`, `manual-private-report-assets.ts`) are
byte-identical to master.
- Product files outside `tests/` (43 files, +1,328 −49) carry
candidate-only changes that master does not yet have. Most are tests.
The main code changes are in `request-human-input.ts`,
`heartbeat-run-summary.ts`, `native-completion-feedback.ts`,
`native-run-finalizer.ts`, `openapi.ts`, `secrets.ts` and
`IssueChatLongThreadPerf.tsx`.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run chat-catalog-domains chat-catalog-contract.test.ts
chat-catalog-consistency.test.ts unit-launcher.test.mjs
--testTimeout=180000` in `tests/runner-e2e`: 269 files pass, 3,550 tests
pass.
- `node --test chat-full-catalog-testops-manifest.test.mjs`: 10 pass.
- `node tests/runner-e2e/source-sdk-public-inputs.mjs <HEAD> --check`:
no change.
- `tsc` for `server` and `tests/runner-e2e`: clean.
- Live single-case verification: 139 of 242 cases passed on paid runs,
and a person read the saved evidence for each. These are single-case
runs, not one full-cohort run.

## Risks

- Large diff. Most of it is test-only, but the 43 non-test files change
product code paths. Review those files first.
- Some graders are now less strict on reply wording. A person must read
replies for meaning on those cases.
- 42 cases need disposable outside accounts (Notion, Slack, GitHub,
Daytona and others) and stay blocked. `access.invite-teammate` stays
failing until local agent isolation lands, because the runner's durable
state keeps a live invite token.
- The paid workflow compares the trusted private-evidence files with
master. They are unchanged, so this risk is low.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 60b9147e7c fix(native): accept harness diagnostics in a remote session-opened bootstrap proof (#20543)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs on a remote sandbox (Daytona) keep their controller
state in a Postgres checkpoint. The controller writes every command to
that checkpoint before it sends the command.
> - After a restart, recovery uses that record to prove that a drained
remote bootstrap reached no provider turn. If so, it bootstraps the run
again on the same heartbeat run.
> - A graceful restart seconds after native start often catches a runner
that opened its session and emitted ACPX `harness.diagnostic` events,
but was never sent a turn.
> - The remote no-turn proof did not accept `harness.diagnostic`, so
recovery blocked these runs as `ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence` and
the task needed a manual Retry.
> - This pull request accepts `harness.diagnostic` in that proof. The
proof's command check still requires that no turn command was ever
issued.
> - The benefit is that a restart just after native start re-bootstraps
the run automatically.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20538 (the harness trigger that reproduced it)

**What happened?**
Restart-chaos wave `w-20261110T091639-s11936` t02, run `c4fc7f03`
(Daytona R1, K2): a K2 landed 13 s after native start. Recovery returned
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`, and the run blocked with
`native_restart_recovery_blocked` (R3 retry_needed). I reproduced it
with a kept database in `w-20261110T132656-s11936` t02, run `ecd98d55`,
using `--native-trigger native-start+5` from #20538. Decoded controller
checkpoint:
- commands: `run.prepare`, `session.open`, `session.goal.get` (no turn
command);
- committed events: `session.started`, `session.capabilities.updated`,
`session.goal.snapshot`, `harness.diagnostic`, `harness.diagnostic`,
`session.goal.snapshot`;
- `ackedSourceSeq` 6, no `sessionCheckpoint`, no projected provider
events.

`nativeRunnerCheckpointRemoteBootstrapProof` returned `null` only
because `harness.diagnostic` was not in `SESSION_OPEN_EVENT_TYPES`.

**Expected behavior**
Recovery classifies the run `bootstrap_incomplete`
(`remote_session_opened_without_turn`) and bootstraps it again.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run a Daytona R1 codex wave with `--faults K2 --native-trigger
native-start+5`.
2. The suspended run is blocked with
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at c874cfa4da.

## What Changed

- `native-bootstrap-proof.ts`: add `harness.diagnostic` to
`SESSION_OPEN_EVENT_TYPES`, which `runnerdStateHasNoProviderTurn` uses.
The proof still requires every command to be `run.prepare`,
`session.open` or runner maintenance (`session.goal.get` and similar),
every committed event to be accounted for in order, and no adopted state
or warm transition. A turn command or any turn event still fails it. The
local opened-session proof already accepted `harness.diagnostic` through
`PRE_TURN_EVENT_TYPES`.
- `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`: a case built
from the observed record (goal read plus two diagnostics). It is
classified `bootstrap_incomplete` with
`remote_session_opened_without_turn`, and the executor's
restored-checkpoint proof agrees. A diagnostic followed by
`turn.started` stays blocked.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`:
163 passed, 14 skipped. The new diagnostics case failed before the
change with `{ kind: "blocked" }`.
- Live: a Daytona R1 wave with `--native-trigger native-start+5`
follows. Results will be in a comment.

## Risks

- Low risk. `harness.diagnostic` is a harness report, not provider
input. Provider work needs a turn command, which the controller writes
to this record before sending, and the proof still rejects any turn
command or turn event.
- Previous-release story (upgrade-safe run state): no persisted shape
changes. A controller checkpoint saved by the previous release with
diagnostics and no turn is now re-bootstrapped instead of blocked. A
record with a turn keeps the same named refusal.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 7329eaf353 perf(ui): open sidebar Recents tasks from cache (#20450)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The board UI sidebar has a Recents list of the tasks a person opened
last
> - The Recents list renders from a local snapshot, but its links had no
warm-up. A click waited for the task-detail code and about nine
first-frame reads
> - Task lists (Inbox, Tasks) already warm a task on hover, press and
click, and #20355 added a batched `chat-bootstrap` read that had no UI
consumer
> - The hosted database is CPU-bound, so a fix must add at most one read
per page load and must not compete with the page's own reads
> - This pull request gives Recents the same open-intent prefetch as
task lists, warms the task-detail code, and preloads the top ten recent
tasks with one `chat-bootstrap` request after the page is idle
> - The benefit is that a click on a recent task shows its chat from
cache, without a wait for the API

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20355 (server read this PR consumes). Builds on #20389, #20398 and
#20419.

**Is your feature request related to a problem?**
Opening a task from the sidebar's Recents was slower than opening it
from a task list. The Recents links had no prefetch. The task page
waited for its first-frame reads after the click.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
Recents links use the task lists' open-intent prefetch. When the page is
idle, one batched request loads the first frame of the most recent tasks
into the task page's caches.

**Describe alternatives you've considered**
Per-task prefetch of every recent task. That makes up to ten times nine
requests per page load, which the hosted database cannot afford.

**Additional context**
I searched open PRs and remote branches for "chat-bootstrap" and
"instant task opens". The only related work is the server-side branches
that merged as #20355. There is no other in-flight UI consumer of
`chat-bootstrap`.

## What Changed

- `ui/src/hooks/useIssueNavigationPrefetch.ts`: the open-intent handlers
from `IssueLinkQuicklook` move into one hook (light warm on pass-over;
`history: true` on a resting hover or focus, a mouse or pen press, and a
click). `IssueLinkQuicklook` now uses the hook. Its behavior does not
change.
- `ui/src/components/RecentTaskNavItem.tsx`: one Recents link wrapper
that applies the hook. The classic list (`SidebarRecentTasks`), the
Coordinator task rows and `DesignSidebar` use it. `SidebarNavItem`
accepts the handlers through a new optional `linkHandlers` prop.
- Classic Recents links now open `/issues/<identifier>` (Coordinator
already did). The old UUID link remounted the task page after a redirect
to the identifier route.
- `ui/src/hooks/useRecentTaskOpenWarmup.ts`: when Recents shows a task,
it fires the task-detail code warm-up (`useWarmTaskDetailCode`). After
two frames, a visible tab, no fetching queries and an idle callback, it
sends one `issues/chat-bootstrap?ids=` request for the ten most recent
tasks. It skips tasks whose first frame is cached and fresh. It sends no
request for an empty list or a hidden tab. It sends at most one request
per account per page load. Unmount or an account change aborts the
request.
- `ui/src/lib/issueChatBootstrapCache.ts`: `seedIssueChatBootstrap`
writes each field under the keys the task page reads, for the requested
ref, the id and the identifier: core issue, recent comments, comment
input facts (one batch, through the new `seedIssueIdBatch`), recent
activity, the recent run window (through the new shared
`buildRecentIssueRunWindow`), interactions, attachments, live runs and
active run. An explicit `null` active run is stored. A missing field is
not stored. It does not replace data that is as new or newer, data with
a read in flight, or data with a pending invalidation. Keys whose page
merges observed history (comments, activity, runs, input facts) are
filled only when empty. Items for another company are ignored.
- The seed fills the `?view=core` key, not the full detail key.
`seedIssueDetailCache` is not used: the core payload cannot stand in for
the detail read's related data, and seeding it there would suppress that
read.
- `issuesApi.chatBootstrap` client method.
- `tests/perf/collections/recent-task-open.spec.ts` and its README
section.

## Verification

Local disposable instance (`local_trusted`, production UI build,
embedded PostgreSQL, collection fixture plus 12 comments on each of 8
recent tasks, streamlined UI with the Coordinator sidebar). Journey:
open Projects with 8 Recents, wait for network idle plus 3 s, click a
recent task, measure until its latest comment is on screen. Each run
uses a fresh browser context (empty HTTP cache and storage apart from
Recents). Median of 5 runs, same server and fixture for both arms:

| Arm | Click to first chat frame | Idle page API requests |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `master` (b6f4008f9b), loopback | 227 ms (first run: 249 ms) | 24
(range 21–25) |
| This PR, loopback | 134 ms | 22 (range 21–27) |
| `master`, +150 ms on each API response | 455 ms | 19 |
| This PR, +150 ms on each API response | 135 ms | 20 (+1
`chat-bootstrap`) |

With added latency, the first frame no longer depends on API latency.

- `PAPERCLIP_COLLECTION_PERF_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:<port> pnpm exec
playwright test --config tests/perf/collections/playwright.config.ts
recent-task-open.spec.ts recent-task-summaries.spec.ts`: 5 passed. On
`master` the two assertion cases fail (0 `chat-bootstrap` requests; 10
first-frame reads after the click).
- Reads that still follow a click on a preloaded task: full detail (`GET
/issues/:id`), `work-products`, `documents`, `feedback-votes`,
`tree-control/state`, `tree-holds`, `runner-goal`, `browsers`, and the
`read` mark. The `chat-bootstrap` payload does not cover them. None
gates the chat's first frame (the frame shows at 135 ms while every API
response waits 150 ms).
- Unit tests: `RecentTaskNavItem.test.tsx` (intent levels, href),

warm-up, wait for page reads, hidden tab, fresh entries skipped, once
per account, user isolation, abort on unmount),

check:token-gates`: clean. `pnpm verify` exits 2 because a `tests/` file
is a global CI input; required CI supplies the broad coverage.

## Risks

- Low to medium. One extra read per page load when Recents has tasks
without a fresh cached first frame. The read starts only after the
page's own queries settle, and the server reads at most two tasks at a
time.
- A live event that arrives while the preload is in flight, for a task
with no cached keys, can leave seeded data up to 30 s old until the next
live event or the next open after the stale time. Inbox hover prefetch
has the same window.
- Classic Recents links now use the identifier route instead of the UUID
route. The task page already redirected UUID links to this route.
- `tests/perf/collections` is a manual suite. CI does not run it.

## Model Used

tool use (shell, file edits, browser automation through Playwright).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 c9226de30b fix(heartbeat): leave a preparing run to the next controller after a graceful drain (#20514)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The heartbeat service runs each agent task. A graceful shutdown
(SIGTERM) drains running native runs and hands them to the next server.
> - The drain detaches the native runner session and releases the run's
lease with the recovery state `awaiting_runner_reattach`.
> - An in-process execution can still be in run preparation at that
moment, for example while the run-log journal claim waits on a slow or
unavailable object store.
> - When that execution then lost writer authority
(`run_log_writer_authority_lost`), the generic failure path settled the
run as `adapter_failed`. The next server then saw
`native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`, and replay stayed
blocked.
> - This pull request makes a preparing execution that a restart
detached stop quietly, the same way a detaching native session already
does.
> - The benefit is that a slow preparation step plus a graceful restart
no longer turns into a failed run that needs a manual retry.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In restart-chaos wave `w-20261110T092411-s701` (local, A1/C1, K1/K2, ST7
read-after-write lag), three of four tasks failed with R3
`retry_needed`. For run `218a0425`, the K2 SIGTERM drain wrote
`native.recovery.transition` with `awaiting_runner_reattach` and
released the lease. About 3 s later, the old server's in-process
execution, which was still in `runOutput.begin`, got
`run_log_writer_authority_lost`. `runCompletion.failRun` then settled
the run `adapter_failed` with a durable settlement. The next server
found `native_continuation_requires_reconciliation` and did not replay
the run.

**Expected behavior**
The drain hands the run to the next server. The old execution must not
settle it. A real authority loss outside a drain must still fail the
run.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native run recovery, and hold it in preparation (slow store,
ST1 outage wait, or ST7 lag).
2. Send SIGTERM so `drainRunningRunsForShutdown` suspends the run.
3. Let preparation continue and check writer authority. The run settles
`adapter_failed`.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at 914e3ae14f.

## What Changed

- `native-session-executor.ts`: add `watchNativeRestartDetach(runId)`.
It records the run's restart-detach marker when the execution starts. It
reports `true` only when a later restart detach for that run happens. A
marker left by an earlier detach does not count.
- `heartbeat.ts`: the execution creates the watcher at start. In the
inner failure path (before `runCompletion.failRun`) and the setup
failure path (before `runCompletion.failRunSetup`), if a restart
detached the run and no provider dispatch started, the execution logs
the handoff and stops without settling. It uses the same teardown flag
(`nativeSessionResumeScheduled`) as
`NativeControllerDetachedForRestartError`.
- `heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts`: add a
red-before/green-after regression. A recovery execution is drained
during preparation and then checks the real run-log writer authority.
With the drain, the run stays `running` with `awaiting_runner_reattach`,
and the next controller resumes it. Without the drain (the lease only
expired), the run still fails `adapter_failed`.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts`: 98 passed.
Before the fix, the new drained case failed with `status: failed,
errorCode: adapter_failed`.
- `cd server && pnpm typecheck`: passed.
- Live restart-chaos wave: see the comment below.

## Risks

- Low risk. The new branch applies only when this process's own restart
detach for this run happened after the execution started, and before any
provider dispatch. Typed native outcomes (startup cleanup, ownership
unverified, cancellation pending, resume scheduled) keep their earlier
handling because they are checked first.
- Previous-release story (upgrade-safe run state): no persisted shape,
launch identity or pack identity changes. The marker is process-local.
State saved by the previous release carries forward unchanged. The
deploy-lands-mid-run case is the regression test itself: a drain lands
during recovery preparation and the next controller resumes the same
run.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 15a734d068 fix(heartbeat): show a storage outage wait as live status, then record it once (#20460)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - In cloud mode a run reads and writes file storage on its critical
path: it starts its run log (`s3_segments`), restores its saved
workspace, and saves it again
> - Since #20299 a run waits out a storage outage there for up to 5
minutes instead of failing
> - That wait was silent. The board showed "running" with no sign of
life, so a storage wait looked like a dead run (restart-chaos R5
`silent_dead_run`)
> - The first version of this PR wrote a run event on every wait. That
writes the run row (`next_event_seq`, `updated_at`) while the run-log
claim is still in progress, and it covered only the run-log begin
> - This PR shows the wait as live run status instead, writes nothing
during the wait, and records one lifecycle event when the wait ends. It
covers every critical-path wait in the run's storage scope
> - The benefit is that a storage outage shows on the board as waiting,
the run's history keeps one honest line about it, and the claim path is
left alone

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20299 (wait out a store outage on a run's critical path).

**What happened?**
- `w-20261110T043533-s11936` (Daytona R1, ST1 194 s, K2): run `d49f58d8`
waited 186 s in `heartbeat.prepare.run_output` with no event. The grader
failed it as `R5:silent_dead_run`.
- `w-20261110T105903-s11936`: the restore download
(`storage.snapshot.download`) waited 182 s with no sign of life.

**Expected:** the board shows the run waiting for file storage, and
nothing about the notice can disturb run-log ownership.

**On the failed `run_output` seen on builds of the first version**
(`w-20261110T101517-s11936` t01 run `9d39550a`,
`w-20261110T081647-s11936` t02 run `9da10424`): the evidence points to
an expired restart lease, not to the notice's row writes. Neither the
writer-authority check (`run-log-authority.ts`) nor the journal claim
compares `next_event_seq` or `updated_at`. A remote
`bootstrap_incomplete` restart claim gets a 60 s lease
(`REMOTE_CONTROLLER_LEASE_MS`), and preparation renews it only for
`reattach_remote_runner` claims. In t01 the claim was at 10:19:55, the
outage ended at 10:22:18.15, and `run_output` failed at 10:22:18.17, on
the first authority check after the store came back. That fix ships
separately as its own PR.

## What Changed

- `storage/storage-unavailable.ts`:
- The run's storage scope can carry a wait observer
(`reportStorageOutageWaitsTo`).
- `retryThroughStorageOutage` tells it about each backoff (`waiting`).
The operation that owns the wait reports one `ended` (`recovered` true
or false), so nested waits do not double-report.
  - `storageOutageWaitFor(purpose, work)` names the step.
- An observer that throws never changes the wait.
`endStorageOutageWaitOn` keeps the observer.
- `heartbeat/storage-wait-notice.ts` (new):
- Each wait sets live runtime status (phase `waiting_for_storage`,
"Waiting for file storage before starting the run log (45s so far)") and
publishes `heartbeat.run.progress`. Nothing goes to the database.
- When the wait ends, it writes one `lifecycle` warn event: "Waited Ns
for file storage before …", with payload `reason:
"storage_outage_wait"`, `purpose`, `waitedMs` and `recovered`.
- `heartbeat.ts`: installs the notice next to `endStorageOutageWaitOn`
(one line).
- Purposes:
  - run-log begin: "starting the run log";
  - `loadWorkspaceSnapshotArchive`: "restoring the workspace";
  - `uploadWorkspaceSnapshot`: "saving the workspace".
- `packages/shared`: adds `waiting_for_storage` to
`HeartbeatRunStatusPhase`.
- `tests/restart-chaos/live-status-evidence.ts` (new): R5 also counts
the board's live run status (`/api/issues/:id/live-runs`
`currentStatusUpdatedAt` / `lastEventAt`) as evidence that a running run
is alive. Wiring it into `observer.ts` takes one import and one changed
line.
- `doc/run-log-events.md`: documents the live status and the one event.
- Removed: the first version's per-wait run event.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run src/services/heartbeat/run-output.test.ts
src/__tests__/storage-outage-wait.test.ts
src/services/remote-workspace-snapshot-storage.test.ts
src/services/object-byte-journal.test.ts
src/__tests__/storage-s3-credential-rotation.test.ts`: 103 pass.
- Red/green: with the observer disabled (master behaviour), these new
tests fail. With this change they pass:
- run-output "shows the wait as live status and writes nothing to the
run while its log claim waits": no run-row write and no event during the
claim's waits; the live status is `waiting_for_storage`; the claim's
writer-authority check still passes; one lifecycle event afterwards;
- the helper's observer tests (one end per wait; gave-up reporting; a
throwing observer; the Stop signal keeps the observer);
- snapshot storage "tells the run it is waiting for storage while a save
or a restore waits out an outage".
- `PAPERCLIP_IN_WORKTREE=false npx vitest run --config
tests/restart-chaos/vitest.config.ts
tests/restart-chaos/live-status-evidence.test.ts
tests/restart-chaos/observer.test.ts
tests/restart-chaos/triggers.test.ts`: 65 pass. `node
scripts/typecheck-test-projects.mjs tests/restart-chaos`: pass. `cd
server && npx tsc --noEmit`: pass.
- Live restart-chaos waves: results in a comment below.

## Risks

- Low.
  - The retry policy, its budget and Stop handling are unchanged.
- During a wait, the only new effect is an in-memory status and a live
event.
  - Afterwards, one event per wait, written without blocking the run.
- Runtime status is per server process. A board on another instance sees
the waiting line only after the closing event.
- Shared journal work (`runSharedStorageWork`) keeps its own scope
without the observer. Its waits surface through the enclosing run-scoped
wait, as before.
- Previous-release state: this persists no new run or session state. A
run saved by the previous release resumes unchanged.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 bf514759f9 fix(run-log): answer 404 for an object run log that was never written (#20539)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Each heartbeat run keeps a run log, and the board reads it through
`GET /api/heartbeat-runs/:id/log`
> - A run can store its log in object storage (`s3_segments`)
> - When a run fails before its log is written (for example in
`runOutput.begin`), the object store throws a plain `Error("Object run
log not found")`
> - The route turns that plain error into a 500, so the board shows a
server failure for a log that simply does not exist
> - The local file store already answers 404 `Run log not found` for the
same case, and the UI treats a 404 as an unavailable log
> - This pull request makes the object store throw the same 404
> - The benefit is that a missing object run log looks like a missing
log, and a real storage failure still answers 500

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
`GET /api/heartbeat-runs/:id/log` answered 500 `Internal server error`
for an `s3_segments` run whose log was never written. The server error
was `Object run log not found` from the object run-log store.

**Expected behavior**
The route answers 404 `Run log not found`, the same as the local file
store. The transcript view already treats a 404 for a finished run as a
missing log, and the log viewer already treats it as an unavailable log.
A real storage failure still answers 500.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Use S3 storage for run logs.
2. Make a run fail before its run log is written (for example in
`runOutput.begin`).
3. Read `GET /api/heartbeat-runs/<run id>/log`. It answers 500.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at adb0e77a4c.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/object-run-log-store.ts`: a read of a log with no
head (never written or deleted) throws `notFound("Run log not found")`
(HTTP 404) instead of a plain `Error`.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-live-run-routes.test.ts`: route tests
drive the real object run-log store behind the route. A never-written
log answers 404. A store read failure still answers 500. A board user of
another company gets 404 and the store is not read.
- `server/src/services/object-run-log-store.test.ts`: the never-written
read test now expects the 404 error.

## Verification

- Red: with the old store, `answers an object run log that was never
written` fails with `expected 500 to be 404`.
- Green: `cd server && PAPERCLIP_IN_WORKTREE=false npx vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-live-run-routes.test.ts
src/services/object-run-log-store.test.ts` passes (120 tests).

## Risks

- Low risk. Other readers of the store (`feedback.ts`, issue comment
derivation, export) already catch any read error. They do not match the
old message text.
- The response for a missing object log changes from 500 to 404. The
company access checks run before the store read, so they do not change.

DottaandClaude c874cfa4da test(restart-chaos): anchor two-server speed samples on the primary's restart (#20535)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The restart-chaos harness grades each wave's speed, including how
fast runs recover after a server restart
> - Two-server faults (MS1–MS3, #20518) record their `readyAt` after the
second server stops
> - The speed grade used that time as a restart-recovery anchor, also
for faults that never restart the primary
> - Wave `w-20261110T115048-s302` passed every task but exited 1 on four
such samples
> - This pull request anchors two-server samples on the primary's own
restart
> - The benefit is that a two-server wave fails speed only for a real
recovery delay

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20518 (the two-server faults).

**What happened?**

In wave `w-20261110T115048-s302` (Codex, B5, MS2/MS3, 4 tasks) every
task passed, but the speed grade counted 4 single-run breaches on
`restart_recovery_control_plane` (p50 10.9 s, p95 12.8 s, budget p95 4.0
s), one per fault.

- MS2 never restarts the primary (it freezes and thaws it), yet it
produced a restart-recovery sample.
- MS3's sample started at the fault's `readyAt`, after the second
server's 33–43 s tail. The primary's replacement had been ready since
1794311949160 (f02) and 1794312728179 (f04), 43.4 s and 33.6 s earlier.
- So each sample measured the B5 run's next provider event after the
second server stopped, while `bench.sh` ran quietly.

**Expected behavior**

MS1 and MS2 produce no restart-recovery sample. MS3's sample starts when
the primary's replacement is ready.

## What Changed

- `wave-speed.ts`:
- New `primaryRestartReadyAt(fault)`: a non-MS fault keeps its
`readyAt`; MS1 gives none; MS2 gives none, unless the primary exited
after the thaw and was replaced (then the replacement's `healthyAt`);
MS3 gives `multiServer.primaryRestart.readyAt`.
- `faultRuns` (recovery samples and the retry "restart" phase) uses that
anchor and skips faults without one.
- `outageWindows` removes only the time the primary could not serve:
none for MS1, the freeze for MS2, and for MS3 from the second server's
readiness (when the primary is told to stop) to the replacement's
readiness. Before, the second server's whole window was removed from run
timings.
- `collectWaveSpeed` sets a run's restart phase only from faults that
restarted the primary. A freeze still subtracts its downtime, but a run
it hit before its first activity stays in its cold or warm budget
(review finding).
- `wave-speed.test.ts`: six tests built from s302's saved receipts,
including two `collectWaveSpeed` cases (a run frozen before its first
activity; a retry after an MS2 freeze).
- README: one note on how the speed grade treats MS faults.

Test-only. No longer freeze and no lease change, as agreed.

## Verification

- Red against master `wave-speed.ts`: all 6 new tests fail. Green with
the change.
- `pnpm exec vitest run --config tests/restart-chaos/vitest.config.ts`:
38 files, 480 tests pass.
- `node scripts/typecheck-test-projects.mjs tests/restart-chaos` passes.
- Offline re-grade of s302 with the fix, from its saved `faults.json`
and run timings (`t0*.grade.json`):
- Restart-recovery samples go from 4 to 2. The MS2 samples (f01, f03)
are gone.
- The two MS3 samples are anchored at 1794311949160 (f02) and
1794312728179 (f04), 43.4 s and 33.6 s earlier than before.
- Outage removed from run timings: 110.0 s and 113.3 s for the MS2
freezes, 5.6 s and 6.5 s for the MS3 restarts.
- No s302 run was hit before its first activity (each freeze came about
68 s into its run), so no run changes phase.
- The MS3 latency itself needs the run's event list, which a wave does
not save for passing tasks. The observer's saved samples show the run's
first recorded activity 0.5 s (f02) and 1.6 s (f04) after the
replacement was ready. The next provider event comes at or after that,
so this is a lower bound, not the graded value.
- `restart_recovery_control_plane` has n = 2 < 5, so its row reports
"insufficient sample". The wave's speed verdict now depends only on
whether each MS3 sample is under 4.0 s, which this offline data cannot
confirm.
- No new wave (as agreed).

## Risks

- Low. Test-harness code only.
- After MS1/MS2 a retry of a failed run is graded as an ordinary warm
run, since the primary never restarted.
- MS1 overlap and the MS2 thaw tail no longer count as outage, so run
timings in those windows are graded in full. The primary served during
them.
- A primary replaced after an MS2 thaw is graded like any restart.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude, model ID `claude-opus-5-5`, used through Claude Code
with tool use (shell, file edit, code execution).
