18be7ac696 fix(server): retire idle native sessions before tenant sleep (#18988)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage AI agents and their work.
> - Native agents can retain a warm session between useful turns.
> - That owner must close and save its files before the tenant can
sleep.
> - A failed close must keep the owner visible until retirement
succeeds.
> - This PR prepares idle resources under the exact current admission
hold, then takes a fresh safety snapshot.
> - Busy turns, uncertain closure and changed holds still prevent sleep.
> - CI also exposed a chat authorization race. The fix repeats full
authorization after the exact delivery commits.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

**What happened?**

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

**Expected behavior**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

**Paperclip version or commit**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

Focused public commands:

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

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

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

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip b8d94b3ad1 test(server): verify status and object deadlines across cold sleep (#19347)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their useful work.
> - Status cards and external objects can have future refresh deadlines.
> - A stopped tenant needs a durable Cloud alarm to return for those
deadlines.
> - A local quiet report alone does not prove that handoff or later
useful work.
> - Acceptance must exercise the normal producer, authorization, claims
and alarm owner.
> - This PR adds opt-in signed cold-owner acceptance and bounded
launcher controls.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19001 and #19191, which have merged. This PR targets master and
adds acceptance for the existing status and object owners.

**What happened?**

The existing local coverage did not join useful status generation or
built-in GitHub refresh with signed Cloud alarm persistence, physical
child retirement and cold reactivation at the original deadline.

**Expected behavior**

Keep the feature enabled. Complete useful work through its normal owner.
Persist the exact authorized alarm before stopping the child. Wake and
process the same original deadline without losing identity, claims,
retries or useful results.

**Steps to reproduce**

Use the checked-in Node24 launcher with separate owned loopback
App/Cloud test databases, a compiled Cloud checkout and the pinned
Node22 executable. Select one status or object bootstrap, cycle or
identity case. The command validates fresh evidence and database
ownership before starting its guarded worker.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Current candidate `ea911278b22c855d6722e43afc026bfc5c031405` normally
merges fetched master `07a548073ab48f13cb93b2fdc31553a5da88a070`. All
eight owned acceptance files are byte-identical to
`c08e64fa857d39bdb79352e94d156db7a4dbebf3`; all unrelated paths exactly
match master. The guard-argument repair and source-specific historical
cycle proof are preserved.

## What Changed

- Add one named opt-in case per owner/stage/diagnostic combination. Keep
the shared business body and its original deadlines, assertions and
cleanup.
- Drive actual managed App startup, authenticated producers, persisted
claims and the signed Cloud SQL alarm before physical child stop.
- Retain the generated five-secret fixture profile across cold boots.
Store it in private directories and retain only names, hashes and modes
in evidence.
- Add optional query timestamps to the existing proxy and harness.
Existing callers keep their default behavior.
- Add launcher refusal controls and assert its complete child argument
list. Both explicit guard preloads and the exact child `NODE_OPTIONS`
must match.

## Verification

- The current preflight repair has causal proof: the old controls pass
all nine cases with an invalid worker preload flag. The new assertions
reject that same command in both success controls (two failures/seven
passes). Restoring the correct command passes all nine cases. The
original refusal, freshness, symlink and byte-preservation assertions
remain unchanged. All 33 recorded Node PIDs and three groups close;
temporary copies and private directories are removed. These controls
stop at the declared spawn stub. They verify the full command contract
and do not claim to execute Vitest.
- The prior real named status bootstrap passed in 72.942 seconds: one
selected case/six explicit skips. It exercised the actual launcher and
Vitest fork, useful normal generation, current authorization, settled
claims, original 900000ms interval and signed SQL alarm
generation/operation-lock acknowledgement before physical child stop.
Recorded processes and final SQL sessions closed; both successful
databases were normally dropped.
- Earlier normal status and GitHub-object cycles qualified their real
900-second and 300-second original deadlines, cold reactivation and
useful second results. Their complete original failure and recovery
records remain source-specific; no shortened business clock or
manufactured completion is used.
- On current integrated head `ea911278`, own frozen offline setup and
normal shared/SDK, Runner and App declaration prerequisites passed. The
status test and its imported closure pass the affected normal test-tree
compiler program with original options/references. The actual named
normal status bootstrap then passed: one selected case/six skips, 82.202
seconds in Vitest and 85.616 seconds in the launcher. It used the real
checked-in launcher, normal App/SDK/process agent and exact compiled
Cloud `389878364b42dd129835d263f91882c5774d5123`. The original 900000ms
interval and 120000ms alarm lead remain unchanged; useful v1 and signed
SQL alarm generation/operation-lock acknowledgement precede physical App
stop. All six recorded process IDs and the runtime group were absent;
independent final test-database sessions were zero, with no observer
during execution. Both fresh success databases were normally dropped.
This refreshes the changed consumer seams through handoff and stop; it
is not another cold-wake/useful-v2/full-cycle result. Historical cycles
remain tied to their measured source.
- Fresh exact-head CI and complete edited bot reviews are required
before merge. A whole final-tree local build/test or deployed suspension
is not claimed. Local provider, process and S3 boundaries are controlled
fixtures; no live GitHub provider or Railway/Neon suspension claim
follows.

## Risks

- These tests use real SQL and wall clocks and are opt-in. Their
fixtures must stay isolated and retain failed evidence.
- Stable fixture secrets must remain private and must not appear in
logs. Cleanup keeps them when owner closure is uncertain.
- The acceptance body stays shared to preserve measured evidence. The
named registration and command controls make selection failures visible.
- This PR does not change production, schema or feature enablement.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` produced the delegated acceptance work. OpenAI
Codex, based on GPT-6, performed managing review, source integration and
the preflight argument repair. Both used repository tools and code
execution. The coordinator's exact backend snapshot and context-window
size were not exposed.

DottaandPaperclip c9391720a1 fix(heartbeat): send saved follow-ups after task completion (#19600)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their work.
> - Task messages remain in a durable queue while an earlier run saves
its result.
> - That result can mark the task done before the user sends the saved
messages.
> - Send records current user intent, but its wake guard allowed only
active task states.
> - The old queue therefore remained pending with an obsolete
finalization message.
> - This change admits that exact Send receipt and reopens the task
through the issue service in the successor transaction.
> - The agent can receive the saved input once while the completed
result remains unchanged.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Send on a saved message can leave the message queued after its native
predecessor succeeds and commits. The old wait message remains visible.
Allowing admission alone also fails: continuation construction rejects a
task that remains done.

**Expected behavior**

Explicit Send must deliver the saved input once through normal
admission. It must retain the previous run and its result.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Save a follow-up while a native run finishes its result.
2. Let that run succeed, commit its accepted result, and mark the task
done.
3. Send the saved follow-up. Before this change, the receipt stays
deferred.

Related public work: Refs #19542. That change selects recovered
workspace files. This change handles the later saved-message admission.
Refs #19602 for the independent workflow fixture repair required by CI.

## What Changed

- Allow the exact explicit Send wake guard to accept a done task. Keep
automatic recovery and cancelled task guards unchanged.
- Reopen the task through the company-scoped issue service after
admission gates pass. Commit reopening, queue consumption and the
successor together. Publish the audit after commit.
- Add a native succeeded/committed predecessor regression with unchanged
saved work and one successor after two resume calls.
- Verify real heartbeat startup under the clicking operator. Keep
automatic input, cancelled tasks and paused agents held.
- Check workspace preflight for the prospective reopened task. Use the
normal company-scoped transition if preflight blocks a done task, so its
completion metadata is cleared.
- Check a successful native predecessor for its committed accepted
result, current ownership and pending cleanup. Keep approvals and
questions effective even without a recovery action.
- Document the saved Send contract and update the queue test dependency.

## Verification

- Final merge qualification for
`675914f0fa9b5eb1d2c9c8fcd448e0669d0c4836`: all 56 applicable status
checks pass, with no pending or failed checks. [Final
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42307623559)
includes typecheck, build, all applicable test and E2E shards, and
aggregate verification. Current-head Greptile is 5/5; all five review
threads are resolved. Any paused or queued application review is not
claimed as a new completed review.

- Final base qualification at
`675914f0fa9b5eb1d2c9c8fcd448e0669d0c4836`: official preflight passes
(1.5s); all six integrated model-normalization cases pass (19.07s); both
affected test typecheck layers pass. The integration changes no
production server/shared/Runner/adapter inputs, so the preceding 12-case
Send proof, two ordinary status guards, and unchanged production
typecheck layers remain applicable. Fresh final-head CI supplies broad
coverage.

- New review regression: both failed and cancelled native predecessors
on a task manually marked Done fail before the repair with
`continuation_task_ownership_changed` through real
`resumeQueuedCommentInterrupt` admission. At
`bfb0eff7941090ac3ac43ce4366ba2e3d46612e9`, all 12 affected
Send/source/cleanup/workspace/decision cases pass (246.80s), ordinary
Done/cancelled rejection cases pass (2; 100.31s), and all seven server
typecheck layers pass. History validation uses the prospective reopened
status only for an already-verified explicit native Send. No status is
changed during a dry run.
- Prior `e64e4bb1` CI passed the affected serialized server suites,
including the complete saved-message route suite, typecheck and build.
General server shard 4 still failed two unrelated stale default-model
expectations (`gpt-5.6-sol` versus the new `gpt-6.1-sol` default). The
equivalent repair has already merged in #19610 as
`8621bcf53ee2e4bbefb7d193add42dd544ca06e8`; the separately prepared
#19645 is closed as superseded. This source fix does not weaken or edit
those assertions.

- Original RED: the committed-source and completed-task startup cases
left the saved receipt deferred.
- Review RED: Done plus an unrunnable isolated worktree created one
successor instead of zero. A successful committed predecessor with
pending lease cleanup also created one instead of zero. The new
Done-to-blocked path retained stale completion time. Pending approvals
and questions each allowed a successor. All failures were captured
before their respective repairs.
- Integrated production revision
`99018264dd1ef002ff3500378184bcd167d9206b`: 417 affected cases pass
across the complete native continuation, responsible-user startup, and
workspace preflight suites (386 + 18 + 13). These include the original
successful startup case and six cleanup/finalization faults that hold
the exact saved receipt until settlement, then deliver it once.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` passes all seven layers
on that integrated head, including the local Runner/SDK dependency
build. Module-boundary, whitespace, and added-code-comment checks pass.
- Normal master integrations preserve branch history. No force push or
assertion weakening was used. Fresh CI and automated review are running
on `675914f0fa9b5eb1d2c9c8fcd448e0669d0c4836`, which normally integrates
the already-merged #19610 fixture repair after the reproduced inherited
CI failure.
- The earlier CI attempt failed in five unchanged workflow fixture cases
because IMAGE_ONLY was unset. The merged #19602 repairs that fixture. A
later inherited duplicate default in that independent fixture has a
separate repair; this PR does not edit it.
- Follow-up route-fixture RED: three existing native queue delivery
cases failed because their fixture marked a run successful without an
accepted result or committed finalization. The same three cases pass
after the fixture records the complete native success contract (42.08s);
delivery assertions and production gates are unchanged. The affected
test-tree TypeScript layer also passes. The full route run passed all
119 assertions but failed its 30-second database teardown hook, so it is
not recorded as a suite pass. That result is retained. One unchanged
bounded rerun was stopped after more than 15 minutes without a final
verdict; it is inconclusive, not a pass.
- Final integrated head `e64e4bb1`: all 13 focused route and
completed-task admission cases pass across two real-PostgreSQL suites
(188.95s), including the three repaired route fixtures and every new
cleanup/finalization/decision hold. Fresh preflight passes; all seven
server typecheck layers pass. Required final CI supplies the broader
route and server coverage.
- These tests use real PostgreSQL and normal admission, cleanup, queue
consumption, and startup services. The startup suite controls the
provider boundary. Hosted provider acceptance remains pending normal
deployment.

## Risks

- Explicit Send can reopen a done task. This is limited to its validated
saved receipt and current assignee. A cancelled task remains held.
- Reopening uses the existing company-scoped issue transition and shares
the successor transaction. A failed admission does not reopen the task.
Provider Stop, workspace, approval, pause and budget checks retain their
existing owners.
- Cleanup and pending decisions retain the done task and saved receipt.
An unrunnable workspace uses the existing blocked-task diagnostic. No
schema or runtime package changes.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family; exact serving snapshot/context window not
exposed; repository analysis, code editing, tool execution.

DottaandPaperclip 44c60c7221 Verify default skill sync through two real cold sleep cycles (#19191)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Automatic skill sources check upstream every five minutes.
> - The domain deadline contract can hand future work to a durable wake
alarm.
> - A saved deadline or a worker unit test does not prove that a stopped
tenant resumes the real producer.
> - This pull request checks the default cadence through the actual app
and a matching service checkout.
> - It checks two cold starts and three distinct persisted skill
revisions with real clocks.
> - The benefit is repeatable local evidence without changing production
timing or authority.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #19001, #17008, #17923.

This is a test and documentation follow-up to #19001. #19001 is now
merged; this PR targets master. Feature code remains in that merged
foundation. #17008 covers the earlier source worker change. #17923
covers separate skill-cache retention; this PR does not change that
behavior.

A scoped search of public PRs and issues found no duplicate
default-cadence cold-cycle acceptance test. No matching public issue was
found. The enhancement fields follow.

**Pre-submission checklist**

This improves checks for an existing feature. It adds no product
endpoint or execution authority. The public related-work search is
complete.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Verification of automatic skill-source updates across a durable idle
handoff and cold restart.

**Subsystem affected**

`server/` test fixtures and development documentation.

**Current behavior**

Domain tests cover claims, access and future deadlines. They do not
prove the full default-300-second path from ordinary source attachment
through signed tenant reports, durable alarms, stopped compute and a
changed persisted skill.

**Proposed behavior**

An opt-in launcher checks bootstrap first, then two full real-clock
cycles. Ordinary CI can run the transport controls without the host
fixture. The launcher-specific worker assertion runs only when prewire
is requested, and fails closed in that lane.

**Reason and benefit**

The test can detect an early refresh, a lost deadline, a stale proof, an
ACK after physical stop, a failed cold restart or a producer that does
not publish changed contents.

**Breaking changes**

None to product APIs, schema, cadence, authorization, claims or retry
policy. Existing maintenance-helper defaults stay unchanged.

**Additional context**

The opt-in host flow needs an authorized matching service checkout, its
normal compiled acceptance bridge, Node 22 and two owned PostgreSQL test
databases. The standalone controls do not need that service or
PostgreSQL. Roadmap review places this under existing Skills Manager and
Cloud deployment verification, not a new core feature.

## What Changed

- Add an opt-in default-cadence acceptance test and checked-in launcher.
- Reuse real server startup, managed tenant authority and the ordinary
project attachment route. Control only the remote Git snapshot boundary;
keep actual authorization, scanning, claims and publication.
- Use actual signed tenant routes and the matching service's gate, sleep
controller and PostgreSQL wake-alarm store. Stop and restart real app
children through a controlled local provider.
- Preload the Node transport guard before coordinator, worker and child
module work. Check worker-local and child PID, thread and source-hash
receipts. Keep caught unexpected transport attempts fatal.
- Require both persisted refresh times and actual upstream handler
timestamps to be at or after each original deadline.
- Join physical callbacks during bridge close, stop a late wake-created
child, and preserve the original cleanup budget. Add a real
IPC/HTTP-child counterfactual.
- Accept valid owned HTTP options paths without allowing Unix sockets or
unknown origins. Remove the unused App helper export.
- Add finite transport and launcher controls. Defer only the
launcher-specific parent assertion in vanilla CI. Keep all subprocess
controls default-runnable.
- Add optional child entry, preload and bounded pool settings to the
existing test helper. Preserve its defaults and the real observer test
body.
- Remove added explanatory comments under the contribution policy.
Preserve executable syntax, directives and literals.
- Document pinned setup, fresh owned databases, bootstrap and full
two-cycle commands in `doc/DEVELOPING.md`.

The diff against the intended base contains nine test/helper/launcher
files and this one document. It adds no production feature code or Cloud
source to the App repository.

## Verification

The latest two-file CI repair preserves both original failed jobs. A
newer master workflow introduced two required step inputs absent from
its extracted-step test environment; the faithful false/false inputs now
pass all five existing target-authorization cases, after an actual
missing-input counterfactual failed. A controlled socket case also
reproduces legal reuse of the released runner port; the fixture now
holds that reservation until the preview binds, releases it in finally,
and asserts distinct ports. All original retry/result/accounting
assertions and timeouts stay unchanged. The original Linux listener
owner remains unknown; the control proves this fixture collision
mechanism, not that original attribution. Fresh current-head full CI and
complete reviews are pending.


Current merge-integration candidate:
`f6f686103b7bfd0a4ab83085634c622af3896ecb`, a normal merge after #19001
landed, including actual master
`1c9767d323cf872a266962b9e6b4bd5cbcb57f1c`. All nine acceptance code
files are byte-identical to148a82e5; both parents' documentation
additions survive. Every other path equals actual master. The only
conflict was the old foundation's startup block; current master was
retained in full. Fresh exact-head CI and complete reviews are pending.
The local measurements below belong to their explicitly named revisions;
no fresh full614-second run is claimed.

Current candidate: `148a82e54c502759785407357001c6b50c1439dd`, normally
carrying the current base `8c912e1ba4fc66397a7341ade59373af8075068f`.
All nine acceptance code blobs remain identical to qualified repair
`e092746f4da181c8414c63be71474619a84b97e7`; documentation retains both
parents. The matching built service for the fresh bootstrap is
`389878364b42dd129835d263f91882c5774d5123`, using Node 22.23.4. The App
uses Node 24.22.2 and pnpm 9.15.4.

Use the exact controlled setup and commands in
[doc/DEVELOPING.md](doc/DEVELOPING.md#controlled-default-cadence-sleep-acceptance).
Fresh owned databases and the matching compiled service are
prerequisites; the launcher does not create a cluster or build
dependencies.

- **Current affected semantic check passed**, using actual native
TypeScript 7 and the current generated CI options/references (0.640
seconds). Normal declaration references passed in 11.726 seconds, with
source-matched SDK/shared/kernel/Runner prerequisites and the frozen
current lockfile.
- **Current guarded controls: 44 passed**, plus the same single explicit
real-PG observer deferral, in 4.790 seconds. The executing worker
checked its own global PID/thread/preload source hash and matching
receipt. Guard hash:
`7daf9ae7d2f26e8fcd389b1d560fac1d4e218a8304a2c58e49f646af108165bc`. No
unexpected attempts or PG sockets occurred. Vanilla controls on the
identical repair files passed 22 cases with one explicit launcher-parent
assertion deferral (2.044 seconds).
- **Real cleanup counterfactual:** unchanged old helper failed the
actual endpoint assertion in 1.568 seconds: its late HTTP child remained
reachable after close returned. The same fixed-helper case passed in
1.485 seconds: close waited, the child exited, the port was unreachable
and no IPC error occurred. The isolated driver records only the known
legacy closed-IPC error long enough to inspect cleanup; current helper
requires zero such errors. All recorded processes and ports were
independently checked empty.
- **Fresh current bootstrap passed once**, 16.159 seconds wall / 14.12
seconds Vitest / 12.237 seconds body. The ordinary enabled producer
persisted useful revision 1, cleared its lease and retained exactly
300,000 ms between success and original next deadline. A signed
current-generation report produced the matching
generation/operation-lock SQL ACK before physical child stop (ACK
06:54:02.020 UTC; stop signal 06:54:02.025 UTC). The alarm retained the
original D and D-120 eligibility. Both fixture databases ended with zero
sessions; the coordinator independently audited and normally removed
them. This bootstrap does not execute a due wake or the new v2/v3 timing
assertions.
- **Historical full two-cycle result remains 1/1 passed in 614.213
seconds wall**, at measured App
`74f7c012ca17ad0d7302d76403f5033affb1430b` and service
`2cb54f904031dcf69a32902cd853b43f74d6f301`. Two new processes published
distinct immutable v2/v3 at original D+115 ms and D+98 ms. Exact signed
SQL ACKs preceded both physical stops; real SQL D-120 claims caused both
cold starts. Features, claims and original business deadlines stayed
unchanged.
- Both historical 10.002-second quiet windows kept app SQL, upstream and
outgoing HTTP counts unchanged. Two awake PG sockets remained. Quiet
counts do not mean all connections closed.
- The stronger timing checks are additional assertions, not
retroactively executed results. Offline inspection of the original
receipts confirms persisted successes at D+115/+98 ms and earliest
upstream handler entries at D+44/+30 ms; all five requests in each
refresh group started after D. The exact new pre-sleep request counter
and dispatch-before-handler time were not independently recorded
historically.
- Source review found 19 critical automatic Git producer/runtime files
identical to the measured App. The current active cache helper change
does not run on automatic Git publication and adds no pool. The matching
service carries unchanged measured helper/sleep/controller/alarm seams
through its normal master merge. The current bootstrap and focused
controls qualify the changed cleanup/guard and parent integration. No
fresh current-head 614-second pass or whole-tree identity is claimed.
- Runtime is serialized: worker 1, per-pool limits at most 4, configured
App potential 10 + shared service pool 2 + one observer against server
max 40. Current bootstrap point samples observed at most 3 owned clients
plus the observer; those samples are not a continuous aggregate peak.
App/service guard peaks were 2 each, with zero remaining sockets at
cleanup.

Failures remain accounted for. The first historical bootstrap cleanup
masked an unknown primary error. Later attempts exposed missing
fixture-owned domain metadata and lost origin snapshots; test-only
ownership/cleanup corrections preserved the original assertions and
timeouts. The new causal driver first lacked a final observation, then
encountered sandbox bind EPERM, then exposed the old closed-IPC error;
only the final real endpoint failure above is labeled the cleanup
counterfactual. An offline dependency miss and a generator-cleared
ignored compiler config were retained and corrected without weakening
compiler options. The former inherited policy failure (397 findings) is
resolved by the genuine current-master base/scanner, with zero findings
and seven scanner tests; no unrelated UI site was edited and the gate
was not relaxed.

Historical real TCP observer coverage passed 1/1 in 3.688 seconds.
Comment-only and opt-in-selection carries remain documented in prior
evidence; self-hash changes are metadata exceptions with fresh
executing-worker checks.

The full workspace typecheck, test, build and browser commands were not
run locally for this test-only slice. The current base passes its full
exact-head CI and Greptile 5/5; this leaf now has all 56 exact-head
check runs terminal (54 success, one neutral, one skip), the additional
legacy security status passing, complete current Greptile 5/5 and
Ponytail 5/5 reviews, and all four review threads resolved across all
pages. No live provider or deployed host/database suspension was
exercised.
## Risks

- The host test requires a matching service checkout and compiled
bridge. An unrelated service revision is not a valid substitute.
- Controlled localhost Git, S3 and physical process operations do not
qualify deployed Railway or Neon suspension, external permissions or
provider uncertainty.
- The Node guard does not prove native subprocess transport isolation.
Only finite local Git metadata and Node version commands were needed.
- Two short SQL/HTTP quiet windows do not establish strict 90-second
host acceptance. Separate plugin-host LISTEN, MCP wake and other domain
gaps remain open.
- Explicit test URLs are destructive fixture inputs. Use fresh, owned
`_test` databases. The launcher does not start a cluster or choose a
database implicitly.
- Passing CI and review do not qualify deployed suspension; the current
proof boundaries above still apply.

### Current master reconciliation (2026-11-06)

Merged actual master `e28158b353fd274f0322be76d62cd223e0df599f`
normally. All nine qualified acceptance code files and the held-port
repair remain byte-identical. Upstream independently landed the workflow
input fix in #19602; the fixture now uses that exact upstream version
once, avoiding duplicate object keys in a squash merge. All other master
changes are preserved. The earlier two-cycle local evidence remains
source-specific; no fresh 614-second run or deployed suspension is
claimed. This new head requires fresh CI and bot reviews.

### Actual combined-tree typecheck failure and repair

CI job `128156887548` failed with TS1117 at workflow-target.test.ts:22:
two independently landed master fixes declared the same `IMAGE_ONLY` and
`TESTOPS_REQUESTED` keys. The complete original log is retained. A
further normal master merge now removes the duplicate declarations,
retaining exactly one false/false pair and every original assertion. All
nine qualified acceptance code paths and the held-port repair remain
byte-identical; unrelated master changes are preserved. This is a
concrete compiler failure and source repair, with fresh exact-head
CI/reviews required.

2e35730637 feat(chat): receive sealed Slack events through the current SDK owner (#19019)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Slack connectors turn authenticated messages into company work.
> - Direct callbacks need an awake tenant.
> - Cloud can retain authenticated asynchronous events until the tenant
wakes.
> - Replay must preserve the original callback proof and current
endpoint authority.
> - Configuration changes must retain registration responsibility
through failures.
> - This PR enrolls verified Slack identities and drains sealed events
through the normal SDK owner.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server chat connectors and signed Cloud connector delivery.

**Problem or motivation**

Direct Slack Events API delivery depends on an awake tenant. Broker
outages, lost responses and configuration changes must preserve delivery
and registration responsibility. Enrollment failures must also leave
other connector events able to drain.

**Proposed solution**

Stage nonsecret enrollment or retirement intent inside the local
configuration transaction. Let the existing connection-event owner
perform broker requests and retries. Replay sealed events through the
current Slack SDK with their original authentication evidence.

**Alternatives considered**

An early acknowledgment for every callback changes command and modal
semantics. A second delivery ledger duplicates existing ownership.
Reusing a new stack identity to retire old registrations crosses an
authorization boundary.

A companion Cloud broker change is required. Related setup fixes: Refs
#18837, Refs #18878. Kickoff searches found no competing async
enrollment consumer. The ROADMAP's connector setup and access controls
stay in place.

## What Changed

- Persist enrollment and credential-free retirement intent before local
configuration commits. Broker failure does not make a completed pause or
removal look unsuccessful.
- Bind company, endpoint, connection, public ID, generation and
authorized actor. Preserve lost-response responsibility and recover only
the supported same-instance configuration outage.
- Permit an explicit move to a new authorized stack only after confirmed
old retirement. Keep the old identity until the new broker receipt
matches the current intent and generation.
- Show permanent signing-credential failures as attention. Preserve
transient retries and reject uncertain inbound authentication before SDK
admission.
- Drain events and acknowledgments before enrollment reconciliation.
Persist a bounded retry on the exact busy intent so other due endpoints
can enroll or retire. Preserve current custody under concurrent changes.
- Stage retirement in the Apps removal transaction too. Archive the
endpoint and connection, retain the original subject and instance, then
revoke credentials. Retirement does not need the deleted Slack
credential.
- Acknowledge a malformed sealed Slack receipt as invalid once. Keep
actual broker outages on the retry path.
- Run the real configuration, SDK ingress, generation fences and public
Apps removal paths in the default SQL suite. Keep Vitest transport
helpers outside production services.
- Preserve original callback bytes, signature, time and public URL
evidence. Use the existing transactional chat-delivery ledger for
redelivery.
- Provide a checked-in prewire guard and launcher using the current Node
executable. Add broker, worker, SDK, SQL and controlled-process
acceptance.
- Stabilize AI account summaries by ID and grant ID. This fixes a CI
migration-repeat equality failure without changing SQL, authorization or
reconnect behavior.
- Open the four configured database connections before the enrollment
test freezes its clock. Keep all 35 original assertions and all
timeouts.
- Measure status-card dispatch entry before its mock does database work.
Keep the original strict 500 ms bound and check any still-armed earlier
deadline. Bound that fixture's pool to four connections.

## Verification

- Candidate: `54fa701d41b4ced62f4ff338d39b946015670ae3`. Normal merges
preserve master `47027e7` and all owned changes. A read-only merge
assessment against fetched master `cb5d7e44` is conflict-free. The only
overlapping file has separate AI test additions. The branch has not
merged that later master; fresh remote checks must validate the current
PR test tree.
- At this head, normal server production typechecking and declaration
emission passed in 35.24s. The affected actual CI test shard passed in
6.27s. Other unchanged CI layers, 92 affected pure controls and 12 guard
controls retain their source-matched results.
- All **15 default real-PostgreSQL cases passed in 34.66s**, with no
skips or filtering. They cover normal configure and SDK ingress,
rollback, stale generations, malformed receipts, busy-lease fairness,
concurrent intent custody, unknown errors, and public Apps removal.
Removal tests check actual credential revocation, retained retirement
through outage and repeat removal, one ordinary retry and confirmed
retirement, transaction rollback and foreign-company refusal.
- The public removal counterfactual failed before the fix: archival and
credential revocation passed, but the inactive intent was absent. The
same test source passed after the staging call. Separate counterfactuals
also reproduced busy-endpoint starvation and malformed-receipt retries.
Original failures remain retained.
- The paired broker/SDK/process journey passed in 31.98s at ancestor
`0324c011`. It preserves callback proof, lost-ACK redelivery, exactly
one comment, one delivery and one successful controlled process. Its
test, producer, SDK, guard and runtime bytes are unchanged. The new
public Apps archive branch is not called by that journey; its evidence
carries on that checked basis.
- The new SQL cases need no companion Cloud checkout. Normal CI runs
them with the repository fixture. For an existing dedicated PostgreSQL
fixture, set `PAPERCLIP_SLACK_OWNER_TEST_DATABASE_URL` and
`PAPERCLIP_TEST_POSTGRES_ADMIN_URL`, then run `node
server/scripts/test-slack-cloud-owner.mjs` with Node24. The optional
paired launcher still requires the normally built companion Cloud
checkout.
- Every pool was bounded to four or fewer connections. The final 15-case
run sampled three runtime clients plus one observer. The independent
final audit found zero clients and all five recorded processes absent.
Earlier closing-socket observations are kept separate from final
cleanup.
- Earlier unrelated CI failures are documented: [enrollment
timeout](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41944373937/job/126973483754)
and [status-card observation
bound](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41944373937/job/126973483843).
The enrollment test retains all 35 assertions and its original timeouts.
A controlled connection probe established the frozen-clock mechanism;
the original remote access history remains unknown. The status-card
fixture measures dispatch entry with the original strict 500ms bound. A
real delayed-dispatch control fails that bound.
- Full local workspace typecheck, build and test inventory was not run
because its embedded-cluster and wider resource paths exceed this local
lease. Exact-head remote CI now passes: 54 successful checks, three
skips and Ponytail's neutral check, with aggregate verification green
and the legacy security context independently confirmed successful. Both
complete bot reviews are 5/5, with all 13 paginated review threads
resolved. Seven execution jobs originally reported runner shutdown; one
diagnostic rerun recovered them and the dependent aggregate check.
Original logs remain retained, and the underlying shutdown cause is
unknown. This is recovery evidence, not a product-fix claim.
- Provider responses are controlled. This proves local SQL, broker, SDK
and process behavior. It does not prove live Slack, agent tools,
synchronous callbacks or deployed suspension.

## Risks

The companion broker is required. Outage or conflicting authority can
leave explicit pending or attention responsibility. A move between
stacks requires confirmation from the old authorized owner first.
Synchronous commands, actions, modal validation, options and challenges
retain their deadlines and endpoint blocker. This slice grants no full
Slack endpoint sleep exemption. No deployed suspension or savings claim
is made.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` workers through Codex, with reasoning, repository
tools and code execution. The served backend revision and context limit
are not exposed. A GPT-6-family coordinator performed technical review
and integration.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

**What happened?**

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

**Expected behavior**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip e3fb4bc73a fix(native): recover saved listener startup failures (#19479)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Native recovery must preserve saved work and respect current task
authority.
> - A closed local API listener can stop startup before a provider
starts.
> - #19462 gives new failures a bounded bootstrap retry.
> - Older saved failures still have a generic terminal code and a
recovery hold.
> - This pull request verifies the old producer outcome and uses the
existing safe replacement path.
> - Eligible tasks continue once. Unknown provider outcomes and user
holds remain blocked.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #19462

**What happened?**

A restart can leave an old listener startup failure in
`terminal_failure` with `native_session_interrupted`. Startup recovery
does not claim it after #19462. A completed file recovery can also
retain its no-replay hold.

**Expected behavior**

Continue automatically when durable records prove that no provider
started, the source stopped, and the current files were saved. Keep the
existing attempt budget and normal admission checks.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Close the actual API listener after a fresh native coordinator claim.
2. Persist the old executor's generic failure. Save the workspace and
confirm source termination.
3. Restart recovery. The baseline schedules no successor. The repair
schedules one successor after all receipts pass.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Baseline: `0252421d5c`. Old failure producer: `2f35eb1080`.

**Deployment mode**

Built from source. Local macOS arm64, Node 26.4.0, real embedded
PostgreSQL, independent filesystem execution. No external AI service is
used by the controlled acceptance.

## What Changed

- Recognize the exact saved local-listener guard through one proof
predicate shared by discovery and the locked transaction.
- Require a fresh first attempt, matching execution bindings, no prior
provider lineage, no provider events or tool calls, no checkpoint or
admission receipt, and no cancellation.
- Reuse current snapshot, exact stop, source block, attempt budget, and
successor idempotency checks.
- Wait for completed source file-recovery receipts. Retire only that
same source's verified preservation hold in the successor transaction.
- Bound discovery to 100 candidates per pass, keep completed history
quiet, and wake through existing transactional producer notifications.
- Retain retries after transient database and final ownership-proof
errors; advance the bounded cursor and force a rescan so a failing page
cannot hide later work.
- Let only the replacement duty discharge a proved-empty notification
during drain through its existing read-only readiness check, once per
notification generation. Keep real work and concurrent changes
outstanding without running replacement during drain.
- Wake replacement at canonical local-stop proof writes and the existing
dispatch eligibility boundary; these hints grant no new execution
authority.
- Add database regressions, scheduler quietness checks, real controller
handoff coverage, and an opt-in controlled Runner continuation.

## Verification

Final production head: `0df41b2fef2644195d1224d36984af3827da3e3b`.

Local environment: macOS arm64, Node 26.4.0, TypeScript 7.0.2, Vitest
5.0.3, frozen-lockfile dependencies. Tests execute freshly;
`--fsModuleCache` reuses only content-validated module transforms.

- Native safe replacement: 62/62 PASS on isolated PostgreSQL 17 (63.18
seconds), including clean per-suite database disposal. All 62 assertions
also passed on embedded PostgreSQL 18 beta, but its Darwin cleanup hook
timed out; that invocation is not counted as a pass. Docker's disk was
full, so the disposable PostgreSQL 17 data used a size-limited RAM
mount, with no host mounts. The owned container was removed afterward.
- Actual stopped-process producer suite: 31/31 PASS. A real exited child
produces the stop receipt, and its replacement notification settles only
after the outer transaction commits.
- Workspace and separate-process drain regressions: 33/33 PASS (75.90
seconds).
- Shared coordinator and execution-control lifecycle checks: 39/39 PASS
(16.43 seconds). Pending work, concurrent changes, cold startup,
shutdown, and passive drain boundaries remain covered.
- Actual suppressed Cloud routine/drain workflow: PASS (34.64 seconds),
using the unchanged test and timeouts. Its matching local RED reproduced
CI's 462-query, zero-pending-query, one-idle-hold timeout after an
admitted write committed during drain (69.46 seconds).
- Actual historical controller handoff: PASS (48.40 seconds). A separate
controller loads the original executor from `2f35eb1080`, writes its
generic listener failure, and exits. Recovery at the final head admits
exactly one successor. The real Rust Runner and controlled Codex process
complete governed `paperclip_finish`; attempt two commits and the saved
file remains intact. Only the child loads the old artifact, and both
isolated artifacts are restored afterward. Rust source subtree
`77961b70f177ec3c38d11abcaec92fd3d0e96ec0` matches the built binary. No
external AI service is used.
- Seven corrected existing fixtures pass: transactional stop-proof calls
(5 cases) and notification inventory (2 cases). Their earlier CI
failures exposed fixture calls outside the documented transaction and an
outdated expected queue set.
- Server typecheck: PASS.

Red/green proofs also cover the original saved failure on baseline
`0252421d5c` (zero successors instead of one), held-history quietness,
bounded forward scanning through 100 parked rows and concurrent wakes,
real snapshot/cleanup producer notifications, actual issue-row lock
timeout, and task/history eligibility notifications. An obsolete
prior-run question can be skipped to request another proof check; actual
skip while the task is paused or the source owns provider tool activity
schedules no successor.

The failed-page regression starts with 25 persistent verifier errors and
a healthy candidate 26. Baseline RED repeats the first page. Repair
GREEN advances the healthy candidate, revisits the original failures
after their fault clears, creates all 26 successors exactly once, and
becomes quiet.

Greptile is SUCCESS, 5/5 on the exact final head (2026-11-06 17:09:21
UTC). Final-head CI is GREEN: 56 successful checks, three intentional
skips, one neutral result, and no pending or failing checks. [Attempt
two and
results](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42258352876/attempts/2)
include passing build, typecheck, Rust, native server, package, browser
E2E, serialized server, general server/chat tests, and final
verification. Five jobs in the first attempt were interrupted together
at 17:13:12 UTC; the native-server log records an explicit runner
shutdown signal. The single infrastructure retry reran only those five
jobs and dependent verification, preserving the 49 successful checks on
the unchanged head. No timeout was weakened, and setup failures or
interrupted invocations are not counted as passes.

Focused commands from the repository root:

```sh
./server/node_modules/.bin/vitest run --project @paperclipai/server server/src/services/remote-workspaces.integration.test.ts server/src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-preparation.integration.test.ts -t 'native safe-replacement decision|reconciles the drained remote backend' --fsModuleCache --reporter=dot
./server/node_modules/.bin/vitest run --project @paperclipai/server server/src/__tests__/execution-control-work.test.ts server/src/__tests__/delivery-work-coordinator.test.ts -t 'execution-control lifecycle|work coordinator' --fsModuleCache --reporter=dot
node node_modules/typescript/bin/tsc -p server/tsconfig.json --noEmit --pretty false
```

The historical acceptance sets `PAPERCLIP_TEST_HISTORICAL_LISTENER=1`
and uses an original-executor child artifact with a `try/finally`
restore. Normal regressions require no Rust binary.

## Risks

- Compatibility is deliberately limited to positively proved fresh
remote startup failures. Other old ambiguous failures remain held.
- Existing provider work, a changed task block, incomplete preservation,
or revoked authority must prevent execution. Normal retry admission
remains in control.
- This PR does not deploy the change or mutate a hosted task. Hosted
recovery still requires the repaired revision and all current proof
gates.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 5d226ca08a perf(chat): reuse bound-run authorization query templates (#18966)
This PR depends on #18969. Merge that fixture-only prerequisite first,
then retarget this PR to master. No merge or deployment is requested in
this work. Its base is `codex/fix-recovery-published-workspace-fixture`;
the six-line recovery fixture repair is excluded from this diff.

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - External chat authorization binds each run to current messages and
conversation policy.
> - Review wait and attention-retention paths repeat the same four-table
read.
> - Each call rebuilt the Drizzle query even when its SQL shape stayed
the same.
> - This pull request reuses the compiled template for the exact
database handle and lock mode.
> - Fresh parameters and current database reads preserve authorization
while reducing Node CPU work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The `authorizeChatConversationForBoundRun` links read used by external
chat waits and attachment reuse.

**Current behavior**

At baseline `e54f9fbf828e06e385e0c62dc381ccb46190aa30`, each call
rebuilt and serialized a four-table query. The observed staging shape
accounted for 16.2% of sampled SQL serialization CPU across 32 samples.
This is a share of query compilation CPU, not total server CPU.

**Proposed behavior**

Compile each read, blocking-lock or NOWAIT variant once per exact live
database or transaction object. Bind new company, issue, agent, provider
and comment IDs on every execution. Continue all current database reads
and authorization checks.

**Reason and benefit**

Repeated authorized service calls used 26.91% less Node process CPU in
the matched local fixture. All seven CPU pairs improved. This reduces
repeated compilation on the shared service path.

Related: #18896 retains task Retry intent through identity contention.
It changes a different workflow and does not reuse this query template.
A public issue and PR search found no duplicate template change.
ROADMAP.md has no conflicting planned feature.

## What Changed

- Keep compiled queries in a `WeakMap` keyed by the exact supplied
database or transaction object. Create only the requested lock variant.
Never cache a result or authority decision.
- Bind the comment list as `ANY(uuid[])`. This supports changing list
sizes with only three templates per live handle. Keep all joins,
selected fields, policy checks and lock clauses.
- Add real PostgreSQL regression tests, a reusable fixture, an actual
service benchmark and a dated performance note.

## Verification

- Passed 17 real PostgreSQL tests: `node node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs
run --project @paperclipai/server
server/src/__tests__/prepared-chat-authorization.integration.test.ts
server/src/services/native-runtime/chat-attachment-reuse.test.ts`.
- After rebasing, seven selected existing external-chat-wait integration
cases passed (266 deselected). They cover small current review waits,
answered-chat identity advisory locks, connection-disable serialization
and contended endpoint proof retry.
- New tests cover changed parameters and list sizes, duplicate/empty
inputs, invalid UUID errors, company/agent/provider binding, current
setup generation and credential fingerprints, root/transaction/savepoint
isolation, rollback, read mode during a held row lock, blocking timeout
and NOWAIT contention.
- Actual service benchmark: `node --import
./server/node_modules/tsx/dist/loader.mjs
server/scripts/benchmark-bound-chat-authorization.ts
--baseline-ref=e54f9fbf828e06e385e0c62dc381ccb46190aa30`. Node 24.22.2,
macOS arm64, real PostgreSQL, 500 warmup calls per implementation, seven
alternating pairs of 500 calls. Every result matched.
- Pinned measured treatment `8386eb78d118faaf6c2fd7f7471b38c0f4b2ef54`.
Its source is unchanged after rebasing onto master. Median Node CPU per
500 calls: 379.033 ms to 277.048 ms, down 26.91%. Every CPU pair
improved by 13.54–33.52%. Median wall time: 742.109 ms to 648.005 ms.
One wall pair increased by 0.51%.
- A separate diagnostic after timing found five SQL compilations per
baseline call and four per warm treatment call. All five database reads
still run.
- The final four-test PostgreSQL authorization suite passed again after
rebasing and strengthening the lock proof. It holds only a message-link
row, so principal advisory contention cannot mask a missing joined-query
lock.
- Independent source review found no correctness issue in exact-handle
ownership, fresh binding or the three lock variants.
- Preserve setup failures: the first test attempt lacked plugin SDK
build output. Shared and SDK builds fixed it. Later attempts could not
start embedded PostgreSQL because its local dependency directory lacked
bundled native-library aliases. `DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH` did not fix it.
Restoring package-local aliases fixed the environment; the final 17
tests then passed. No dependency or lockfile change is included.
- The first full typecheck found new test-only errors: PostgreSQL
transaction handles lack the root database `$client` type, and runtime
setup test data includes fields outside the saved setup interface.
Commit `40a4645750` uses the existing explicit transaction test cast and
SQL JSON fixtures. No production contract changed. The full check also
found local plugin SDK link prerequisites, which the coordinator is
repairing separately.
- Preserve the first Linux CI failure: [server shard
9](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41837775564/job/126602280304)
failed the new setup-fence fixture's allowed case. The fixture supplied
a client `processedAt` while PostgreSQL supplied default `receivedAt`;
this could violate the required processing order. The test now uses
explicit ordered timestamps and no wall-clock window. The four-test
PostgreSQL suite passed again in 19.93 seconds. Production guards were
not weakened.
- [Server shard
2](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41837775564/job/126602280291)
also failed five workspace-recovery cases with
`remote_workspace_published_path_invalid`. Those failures reproduced on
both pure master and the exact CI merge with the chat optimization
removed. #18969 fixes the canonical path in that separate fixture, with
five failing cases before and five passing after. This PR is stacked on
that independent repair for final CI.
- The additional Paperclip review reported a node-postgres
statement-name collision and requested explicit pool cleanup. This
repository uses postgres-js; locked Drizzle 0.45.2 accepts the Drizzle
label but does not use or forward it. [The review
response](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18966#issuecomment-6632666599)
links primary driver source and the database factory. Commit
`c5d0d84f36` adds explicit pool teardown in `try/finally` and a real
same-transaction `read → blocking → nonblocking → read` case. All five
authorization tests passed in 6.47 seconds. The original separate
row-lock test remains. Production SQL and code did not change.
- Final combined local validation at `4ab58ff70b` passed full `pnpm -r
typecheck` (39.864 seconds) and 35 real PostgreSQL cases across the
chat, GitHub and shared prepared-query suites (11.378 seconds). Full
`pnpm build` passed earlier with byte-identical production source; later
changes affect tests only. The production file SHA matches the benchmark
and this PR. The original full `pnpm test:run` was interrupted after all
six chat shards passed and general tests had partly run, so it is not a
full local pass. Final current-head CI provides the broader coverage. A
sandbox retry failed with EPERM before assertions; the identical
escalated commands then passed. Final head passed CI in [workflow
41843806060](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41843806060),
including all build, typecheck, general, serialized and e2e test gates.
The previous head `40a464575009dfc3cce7afa1eb4fffa5540dcaf6` passed
Greptile 5/5, security review, typecheck, build and canary validation.
The prior stacked head `74cb36370162750f8e135ed091603d3629d23b0d` passed
full CI, Greptile 5/5, policy and security checks. Final head
`c5d0d84f369d897a66d9b6441bab10cb79f593b9` passed a fresh Greptile 5/5
review with no actionable findings, security and PR policy checks. Its
complete [current-head CI workflow
passed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41843806060).
All 54 required CI, Greptile, policy and security checks passed. The
optional Paperclip Review check is queued for this head; no current-head
score is claimed. Production source SHA-256 remains
`72ce9d2317e5c97b36e299e24e30fc1aa63020d8c266e495fc45dbfdd5331e93`,
identical to the measured code.

## Risks

- `ANY(uuid[])` relies on postgres-js array binding and UUID casting.
Real PostgreSQL tests cover single and multiple valid values and invalid
UUID errors.
- A new transaction or savepoint pays its first compilation cost. The
weak cache cannot reuse a root session for it. This benchmark covers
repeated calls on one root handle.
- The team paused other work during the benchmark. Unrelated Rust
compilation was active elsewhere on the host. Process CPU excludes those
processes, but host contention can affect caches, scheduling and wall
time. This source-mode local result does not prove production request
latency or whole-server CPU savings.
- No migration or API contract changes. No deployment or merge is
included. Monitor authorization failures and lock-contention behavior
after an authorized rollout; revert the narrow service change if those
regress.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` through Codex, with reasoning, repository editing,
tool use and test execution. The host did not expose a context-window
size or deployment snapshot ID.

DottaandPaperclip 2cbfc35a07 perf(github): reuse the inherited review wait query template (#18965)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - External review waits check current GitHub review and publication
bindings.
> - The GitHub service rebuilds the same seven-table Drizzle query on
each check.
> - A sampled production window attributed 6.3% of SQL serialization CPU
to this query shape.
> - This pull request prepares that query once per exact database or
transaction object.
> - Each call still reads current provenance, review, connection and
publication state.
> - The local service benchmark reduces median client CPU per read by
24.35%.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Repeated `readInheritedGitHubReviewWait` calls from external review wait
reads and attention retention.

**Subsystem affected**

Server GitHub chat review waits.

**Current behavior**

Every call constructs and serializes the same joined SELECT. The
database driver already supports prepared statements. That setting does
not reuse the JavaScript query template.

**Proposed behavior**

Compile the existing selector once for each supplied database,
transaction or savepoint object. Bind company, issue, agent and comment
IDs on each execution. Keep every current database read and check.

**Reason and benefit**

Remove repeated query construction and serialization CPU. Do not cache
rows or authorization decisions. Exact open-PR searches found no
duplicate query-template change.

## What Changed

- Add an exact-handle `WeakMap` for the GitHub review selector and
execute it with fresh placeholders.
- Preserve the SQL projection, joins, JSON types, latest-review order
and all current authority checks.
- Extend real PostgreSQL tests for new bindings, warm-cache revocation,
latest heads and transaction/savepoint rollback.
- Capture prepared executions in the existing test helper.
- Add an actual-service benchmark and a report with every timing sample
and setup failure.

## Verification

- `github-review-wait.test.ts`: 16 tests passed on real PostgreSQL.
- `external-chat-wait.integration.test.ts -t 'reads small current
external review waits without saved prompts'`: four affected cases
passed; 269 unrelated cases skipped.
- Pinned baseline: `e54f9fbf828e06e385e0c62dc381ccb46190aa30`. Final
source SHA256:
`fe647e7fe2aed82609e8f1d66a0109e7a10ee28313ae2ef218ba3ab39b5cd105`.
- Exclusive-window benchmark: 500 warmups per version, nine alternating
pairs of 100 complete service reads on disposable PostgreSQL. Median
client CPU: 1.00336 → 0.75908 ms/read (24.35% less). Median wall time:
2.87089 → 2.38731 ms/read (16.84% less). CPU excludes the PostgreSQL
process.
- Every generated SQL statement, parameter, query count and complete
result matched. Warm joined-selector compilations per ten service reads:
10 → 0.
- See `doc/performance/2026-11-04-prepared-github-review-wait.md` for
reproduction, all samples and measurement limits.
- Setup record: loopback required execution outside the sandbox. The
fresh embedded-Postgres dependency lacked macOS dylib aliases; aliases
to existing identical bytes restored the fixture. The SDK import needed
a current workspace SDK/shared build. A broad external-chat suite run
was interrupted and replaced by the affected test filter. Those attempts
are not counted as passing suites.
- Greptile: 5/5 on current head
`d2e6ae8814c3a56c380bd5d60c47e6f98642f085`, with no actionable issues or
inline comments.
- Current-head CI is green at
`d2e6ae8814c3a56c380bd5d60c47e6f98642f085`: 52 successful checks, three
intentional skips and the successful Snyk status. This includes
typecheck, build, the full test matrix, end-to-end shards and the
aggregate gate.
- Combined local validation at `4ab58ff70b` includes both measured
production templates and final test fixes. Full recursive `pnpm -r
typecheck` passed in 39.864 seconds. Three real PostgreSQL files passed
35/35 tests (five chat cases, 16 GitHub review cases and 14 shared
prepared-query cases). The combined build passed earlier with the same
production template bytes.
- The initial combined typecheck failed on a separate chat test typing
error and build setup. The later passing run resolves that attempt. The
original full local `pnpm test:run` was deliberately interrupted after
six chat shards passed and partial general tests ran; it is not a
passing full local suite. Each PR has independent current-head CI for
broad coverage. The initial loopback sandbox restriction was resolved by
an escalated run of the same source.
- Local benchmark/test dependencies were locked at the baseline; the
rebase adds the upstream lockfile refresh and UI paste fix only.

## Risks

- A prepared query captures its session. The exact supplied handle is
the cache key so transactions and savepoints do not borrow the root
session.
- Placeholder mistakes could cross bindings. Tests alternate independent
company/issue/agent/comment fixtures on the same handle.
- The benchmark has one synthetic eligible fixture with warm sequential
reads. It does not predict production endpoint latency or whole-server
CPU savings.
- No schema, index, database driver setting or public API changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` through Codex. The context-window size is not
exposed by the session. Used reasoning, tool calls, source editing and
code execution. Independent Codex review found no correctness issues.

DottaandPaperclip e2dc2cc0be fix(native): retire idle shared-sandbox ingress owners before dispatch (#18893)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their tasks.
> - Native tasks can share one reusable sandbox workspace.
> - A completed child can keep its provider process warm.
> - A parent has its own logical session, but the sandbox has one
ingress listener.
> - Retirement by task identity leaves the child's listener in place.
> - A new parent Runner then fails to bind that listener.
> - This pull request retires a proven idle physical owner before the
parent's distinct session starts.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15353 and #17097 for listener configuration and warm transport
rotation. Refs #18682 for owned process retirement. #18860 repairs a
different resume-source failure. Searches found no existing repair for
retained warm sessions on different tasks that share the same physical
ingress allocation.

**What happened?**

A completed child and a later parent can use the same reusable sandbox.
Warm-session retirement compares logical task ownership. It does not
find the child's distinct task scope. The child keeps the fixed ingress
listener, and the parent's new process fails with
`runner_ingress_bind_conflict` / address already in use.

**Expected behavior**

A parent must start in its own logical session after the proven idle
prior listener closes. Active, foreign or unverified owners must remain
protected.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run the `retires the completed child listener` cases in
`native-session-executor.test.ts`. The actual executor registers a warm
child. PostgreSQL holds its committed, accounted result and clean
expired lease. A distinct parent receives the same allocation and
current workspace writer. The provider boundary uses real TCP listeners.
The original executor reaches the second bind with the child still
listening and fails with EADDRINUSE. The changed executor waits for the
owned close, then starts the distinct parent session.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on ab2d2098a2. The branch
includes current master 44a4ca1c61 before this PR was opened.

**Deployment mode**

Native Runner with provider ingress on a reusable sandbox workspace.
Local regression uses real PostgreSQL and local TCP with a controlled
provider-process boundary. No hosted provider call was made.

## What Changed

- Keep physical ingress identity separate from logical task/session
ownership. Never attach the parent to the child's session.
- Reserve a physical allocation during local admission. Retire a
distinct warm owner only after canonical company, agent, workspace,
provider, allocation, lease, task and coordinator checks pass.
- Require the current remote workspace writer and location to match the
admitted run. Require the prior run to be committed and accounted, with
its original controller generation and a clean released or expired
lease.
- Use the existing close, checkpoint and stopped-file collection path.
Wait for close before parent dispatch, then recheck canonical authority
before staging files or calling the parent backend. Retain the entry
when close is uncertain.
- Add actual executor/PostgreSQL/TCP safety cases and document the
contract. Keep maps unchanged for this bug fix.

## Verification

- Untouched production at ab2d2098: actual executor + PostgreSQL + TCP
fails EADDRINUSE. Same positive case passes after the change.
- Final focused suite: 20 passed. It covers distinct parent session
identity; foreign company, allocation and workspace; active or
unaccounted owner; changed controller; reassignment; competing
lease/writer; stale allocation metadata; Stop before and after claim;
workspace-lock race; failed close that leaves the listener and accepted
result intact; and controller transfer, Stop or writer change during
awaited close. These last cases reject the stale parent before backend
invocation after the old listener closes.
- Untouched head3425acbe: transferring the incoming coordinator during
close still reaches the parent backend. The same actual
executor/PostgreSQL/TCP case passes after the post-close authority
check.
- Broader `native warm session supervision` suite: 160 passed. This run
preceded the final two-line logical-session collision guard; the final
20-case suite includes that guard.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`: all source and test
layers passed, including `src/__tests__`.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server build`: production server and
Runner build passed at current head572acfef79. The exact-head build
stamp is recorded.
- The provider/close boundary is controlled. The fixture seeds canonical
committed/accounted finalization data in PostgreSQL. These tests do not
claim a live model result, operator ACK, hosted PID-to-listener
identity, or recovery of a historical task.
- Full repository pnpm checks were not run locally for this server-only
slice. Required current-head CI and reviews are pending.

## Risks

The new retirement path can close a process from another task. It
requires the same canonical company, agent, allocation and workspace, a
current exclusive writer, and a completed idle owner. Missing or changed
evidence leaves admission blocked. Active owners, changed generations,
reassignment and cancellation remain fenced. A failed close retains the
owner and saved result.

This covers current-controller warm entries with recorded physical
identity. Historical processes outside the registry keep the existing
exact-owner recovery requirements. No port shuffle, port kill, task
capability expansion, new polling loop or invented receipt is added.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol (`gpt-6.1-sol`) in Codex, with source editing,
terminal execution and tool use. The host did not report its
context-window size.

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 11ac90e31f fix(build): typecheck server/src/__tests__ and fix every type error (#18739)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server has about 1,100 test and helper files in
`server/src/__tests__`
> - `server/tsconfig.json` excludes that directory, Vitest does not
check types, and no script runs the tsconfig in that directory
> - So a test can call a function with the wrong arguments and still
pass, and no tool reports it
> - This gap hid 2,168 real type errors, and some of them hid tests that
did not test what they claim
> - This pull request fixes all of these errors and adds the directory
to the server layers from paperclipai/paperclip#18737
> - The benefit is that a type error in a server test now fails the
typecheck, with no baseline and no backlog

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs paperclipai/paperclip#18737, which is merged and added the server
layers. Refs paperclipai/paperclip#18738, which is merged and checks the
test projects outside `pnpm -r`, so it is not a duplicate. Refs
paperclipai/paperclip#18137, which records that this directory has no
check.

**What happened?**

No tool checked the types of 1,074 of the 1,101 files in
`server/src/__tests__`. I searched `package.json`, the workflows, and
all tsconfig files. 27 files are in the program of another tsconfig, and
these 27 have 0 errors. 11 of the 27 are in
`helpers/maintenance/tsconfig.json`. No script ran that project when I
measured this. paperclipai/paperclip#18738 now runs it.

**Expected behavior**

The server typecheck checks these files, and a type error fails the
check.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. On the base commit, run `tsc -p server/src/__tests__/tsconfig.json
--noEmit`. It reports 6,536 errors and needs 12.3 GiB.
2. Add a type error to any file in `server/src/__tests__`.
3. Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`. It passes.

**Paperclip version or commit**

I measured the error breakdown below on commit `8dfd632452`, with
TypeScript 7.0.2. The branch now includes master up to
paperclipai/paperclip#18865.

**Deployment mode**

Not applicable. This issue applies to development and CI. No production
source file in the server changes.

### Error breakdown

Each row adds one change to the row above.

| Step | Total errors | Change | Cause |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Config as committed | 6,536 | | |
| Add `src/types/*.d.ts` | 4,447 | -2,089 | Config. The Express request
types were missing. |
| Set `rootDir` to the repository root | 2,436 | -2,011 | Config. |
| Set `allowImportingTsExtensions` | 2,181 | -255 | Config. Vitest
accepts `.ts` imports. |
| Add `ES2024.Promise` to `lib` | 2,138 | -43 | Config. Node 24 has
`Promise.withResolvers`. |
| Set `allowJs` for `.mjs` imports | 2,148 | +10 | Config. It removes 8
`TS7016` errors and shows new real errors. |
| Set `declaration` to false | 2,142 | -6 | Config. Tests emit nothing.
|
| Count only files in `server/src` | 2,058 | -84 | Other packages: 53
Daytona, 29 Runner test, 2 UI. |

So 4,478 of the 6,536 errors (69%) came from config or scope, and 2,058
are real type errors in 314 files. The 29 Runner test errors are also
real, which gives 2,087 errors. Tests that master added after this
measurement had 81 more errors, so this pull request fixes 2,168 errors.

This table classifies the first 2,058 errors.

| Kind of real error | Errors |
| --- | --- |
| Wrong argument or assignment type | 1,023 |
| Stale or partial fixture objects | 525 |
| Property that the type does not have | 317 |
| Missing narrowing of null or unknown | 101 |
| Implicit any | 60 |
| Missing name or module | 16 |
| Other | 16 |

### What the type errors hid

Most errors were stale fixtures and loose mocks. These errors hid real
test problems, and this pull request fixes them:

- **A test that never ran.** `instrumentation.test.ts` required
`sdk-trace-base`, which is not installed. So 3 span tests were skipped.
They now run and pass.
- **Assertions that could not fail.**
- `issue-thread-interactions-service` used a company ID as an issue ID.
- `status-card-evaluation-work` compared `[]` with `[]` in a rollback
check.
- `slack-conversation-lifecycle` read `item.issueId`, which does not
exist.
  - `email-channels` used a permission key that does not exist.
- `heartbeat-project-env` imported `LOW_TRUST_REVIEW_PRESET`, which is
not exported. The value was undefined.
- **Postgres processes that did not stop.** 11 test files called `stop`
on the test database helper. That method does not exist, and the helper
method is `cleanup`.
- **Arguments that the service ignored.**
- `methodKey` is now `connectionMethodKey` in the Daytona, Unikraft,
1Password, and Railway tests.
- 108 calls passed `"owner-user"` to a parameter that expects an options
object.
- 9 chat wizard fixtures passed `managementContext` as `source`, so they
ran `existing_app` and not `manifest`.
  - 2 tests passed a `{ userId }` actor that the function ignores.
- Inserts into `environments` passed a `companyId` column that the table
does not have.
- **Problems in tests that master added during this work.**
- `sandbox-creation-operations` read `database.connectionString` when an
external test database was set. In that mode `database` is undefined, so
the fixture would stop with a TypeError. It now uses the external URL.
- `idle-completed-history` set a Dot operation to `dispatched`. That is
a Muse status, and the Dot type does not have it. The fixture now uses
`admitted`, which is a real in-flight Dot status.

### Possible product problems, not changed

These may be real problems in production code or types. I did not change
them, because this pull request does not change production behavior:

- `decisions-service` `service.create` does not validate the lenient
`cancel_issue_tree` input.
- `createConnection` ignores `input.connectionPurpose`.
- The `createConnection` route schema default stores `{}` for
`transportConfig`.
- `prepareManagedAiRuntime` accepted the invalid value `mode:
"connection"`.
- `createBinding` accepts invalid `projectionClass` strings outside
class 3.
- `ensureManagedProjectWorkspace` forwards an untyped `repoRef` by
spread.
- `routineVariableSchema.label` is optional, but `RoutineVariable.label`
is required.
- `ToolRunContext.projectId` may be too strict.
- `withdrawInteraction` reads `issue.status`, which its type omits.
- `issueService.list` and `reconcileNativeFinalizations` omit fields
that they return at runtime.
- `createGitHubExternalObjectProvider` handles `tokenProvider: null`,
but its type forbids this value.

## What Changed

- Fixed the 2,168 type errors. The diff changes 322 test and helper
files.
- Corrected `server/src/__tests__/tsconfig.json`. Editors and the
typecheck now read the same options and report the same errors.
- Added three `test-tree` layers to
`server/scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs`. They read the server layers as
declarations, and any error fails them. A hash of the path selects the
shard, so a new file does not move other files.
- Added `server/scripts/typecheck-stubs/daytona-sdk.d.ts`. Server tests
reach Daytona plugin source, and the root install does not have
`@daytonaio/sdk`.
- Changed two imports in `ui/src/lib/issue-execution-policy.ts` to use
`.js` extensions, because server tests import this file.
- Made `declarationsConfig` and `--declarations-only` skip the
`test-tree` layers, because these layers emit nothing. Other projects
read only the source layers. Added a test for this.
- Updated `doc/DEVELOPING.md`.

## Verification

Run these commands:

```sh
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck
pnpm exec vitest run server/scripts/typecheck-layers.test.mjs
```

Results on macOS (arm64), Node 24, 16 cores. Each check ran after the
merge of paperclipai/paperclip#18738 unless the row says otherwise:

| Check | Commit | Result |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Server typecheck, `PAPERCLIP_TYPECHECK_LOW_MEMORY=1`, all 7 layers |
`6e45a08573` | Exit 0, 0 errors, 62 seconds, peak 3.52 GiB |
| `node scripts/typecheck-test-projects.mjs --low-memory` | `a3306bd13e`
| Exit 0, 0 errors, 42 seconds, peak 3.25 GiB |
| The same script with `--reuse-declarations` | `1b878aabc0` | Exit 0, 0
errors |
| `typecheck-layers.test.mjs` and `live-recovery-work.test.ts` |
`01db5634e4` | 90 passed. These include real compiler runs for a pass, a
type error, and an invalid tsconfig. |
| `tsconfig.declarations.json` after a full server typecheck |
`0fb1e4fb0a` | It references only `below`, `cycle`, and `above`. No
generated config names a `tsconfig.layers.json` file. |
| Owned runtime test in `idle-completed-history` | `e8f2f448ac` |
Passed, with the fix that master later replaced |
| `idle-incoming-wake`, `plugin-idle-manager`, and the changed
`chat-channels` test | `6e45a08573` | 30 passed |
| Runner `native-execution.test.ts` | `eab4dcc1f4` | 114 passed |
| The 19 server test files that changed since `eab4dcc1f4`, and
`typecheck-layers.test.mjs` | `259737b700` | 4,275 of 4,277 passed. The
2 failures are in `chat-channels` and are in the list of 7 below. |

The peak is the largest single process, from `/usr/bin/time -l`. Peaks
for the server typecheck were between 3.42 GiB and 3.56 GiB across 8
runs. Peaks for the test projects were 3.25 GiB and 3.37 GiB across 2
runs. I did not measure a cgroup.

**Runtime check of the fixes.** Types do not prove that a test still
works. So I ran all 309 changed server test files, 11,929 tests, before
the rebase onto paperclipai/paperclip#18737:

| Result | Tests | Detail |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Passed | 11,913 | Includes the 2 tests and the 54 `dot-runner` tests
that passed in a later run, as described below. |
| Failed | 7 | The same 7 tests also fail on the commit before the
fixes. |
| Skipped | 9 | These tests have their own skip conditions: `sentry` 5,
and 1 each in `bundled-plugin-registration`, `customer-success-cloud`,
`onepassword-connection`, and `workspace-runtime-https-live-exercise`. |

The 7 tests that fail with and without this change, on my machine:

- 3 tests in `chat-channels` and `email-channels` stop with `ENOENT` on
a `SKILL.md` file. The path is in the parent checkout, above the git
worktree that I used, so I expect that the worktree is the cause. I did
not prove this.
- `workspace-instance-cleanup` compares `/private/var/...` with
`/var/...`. This is a macOS symlink difference.
- 2 tests in `git-reproducible-managed-checkouts` get
`unknown_base_git_files` and expect `unpushed_managed_checkout`. I did
not find the cause.
- 1 more test in `chat-channels`, `materializes direct external-chat
finals once`, gets `undefined`. I did not find the cause.

CI is the check for these 7 tests. `ci / verify` passed on `eab4dcc1f4`.

Failures during this work:

- My fix to `agent-runtime-connector-access` changed an invalid
permission key in the setup, but not in the assertion. The runtime check
found this. I corrected the assertion, and the file passes.
- `heartbeat-plugin-environment` failed one wait in the full run. It
passed three times alone, so I think that load caused the failure. It
can fail again under load.
- `dot-runner` skipped all 54 tests in the full run because `cargo` was
not on my `PATH`. It then passed 54 of 54 with the toolchain on the
`PATH`.
- My first `lib` value removed the default DOM types, and the error
count went up by 375. I added the DOM libraries.
- My Daytona stub with bare `any` left 48 errors, because generic
helpers then inferred `unknown`. I added shapes that return promises.
- One fix to `agent-secrets-routes` used `class_3_static_lease`, and the
test failed. That class allows only specific paths. I reverted to
`unclassified`.
- `ci / General tests (server (8/12))` failed on `259737b700` because of
the flaky port in `idle-completed-history`. paperclipai/paperclip#18853
fixed this test on master, so this pull request keeps that fix.

**Audit of the diff.** I counted these patterns in added and removed
lines, to find fixes that only hide an error:

| Pattern | Added | Removed |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `@ts-ignore` | 0 | 0 |
| `@ts-expect-error` | 0 | 1 |
| `.skip` | 0 | 0 |
| `as any` | 9 | 9 |
| `: any` | 11 | 2 |
| `as never` | 8 | 2 |
| `as unknown as` | 35 | 4 |
| `Promise<unknown>` | 16 | 5 |
| `expect(` | 128 | 113 |

No hunk removes more `expect(` calls than it adds. Three removals of
test content were intentional, and I checked each one:

- `muse-control` removed `signalToken`. Line 1012 already asserts that
it is absent.
- `merged-pr-confirmation-sweep` removed legacy aliases. Other tests
cover them.
- `heartbeat-workspace-branch-containment` removed a `finalize` branch
that no test row can reach.

Some partial fixtures stay unchecked through `as unknown as` and
`Promise<unknown>`, mostly in `issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes`
and `issue-comment-reopen-routes`.

**Accuracy of the check.** One program over the tree and the three
shards reported the same errors at the same positions. Memory, as the
peak of the largest process on one thread, was 3.93 GiB for one program
and 2.43 GiB for the largest shard. I measured these two values before
the fixes.

Not run or not proven:

- I did not run the full `pnpm test:run`, or a root `pnpm build`. I
expect CI to run the full suites.
- I did not run the 4 GiB container check, or the full
`scripts/typecheck-low-memory.mjs`. The peaks above come from macOS, so
they are not a Linux cgroup measurement.
- I did not run the UI typecheck after the merges.
- `workspace-runtime-https-live-exercise` is skipped, so its `cleanup`
fix did not run.

## Risks

- **A large diff in test files.** 328 files change. A pull request that
edits the same tests can get merge conflicts. New tests on master can
also add type errors before this merges. Any such error fails this check
and needs a fix here.
- **A higher cost for changes to source types.** A change to a type can
add errors in test files that the author did not touch. The author must
then fix them. This is the purpose of the check, but it is new work.
- **Changed test behavior.** Some tests now run paths that they did not
run before, such as the 9 chat wizard fixtures and the 3 span tests.
They pass here, but they can be more sensitive to timing or to the
environment.
- **The Daytona stub can go stale.** The stub is written by hand. If the
plugin uses a new SDK member, the typecheck reports an error until
someone updates the stub.
- **The release path.** `release-verify.yml` and `scripts/release.sh`
run `pnpm -r typecheck`, so they now run this check.
- **The tsconfig change.** The test transform reads
`server/src/__tests__/tsconfig.json`. The options that I changed are for
type checks, and the runs above passed.
- **A gap that remains.** Tsconfigs in `packages/paperclip-runner` and
in most sandbox provider plugins exclude `*.test.ts`. This check does
not read most of those test files, so they can still drift. That work is
separate from this pull request.

DottaandPaperclip 683fa4725e fix(evals): refresh native runtime and pin reviewed catalog repairs (#18780)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people inspect and manage their agents’ work.
> - The timeline must report canonical ownership history, and OpenCode
tool failures need bounded diagnostics.
> - The measured candidate also had independently reproduced
question-navigation and oracle defects.
> - This change promotes the reviewed production fixes and pins one
immutable, qualified source composition.
> - Original queries, model, counts, clocks, privacy controls and
qualification holds remain intact.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18775, #18777, #18779, #18711, #18713, #18718, #18699, #18798,
#18799.

**What happened?** The measured candidate predates merged native-runtime
fixes and contains fixture defects. The timeline omitted recorded
reassignment/removal history. Finish-input errors lacked a closed
correlation and shape witness.

**Expected behavior:** project recorded ownership transitions without
inventing facts, distinguish successful native execution from failed
verification steps, and retain content-free finish diagnostics.

**Steps to reproduce:** repeat an unchanged assignee while editing
another field; then reassign or unassign it. Only recorded transitions
should appear. Invalid OpenCode finish input should produce a correlated
rejection witness without values or schema text.

Related #18699 adds gated company OTLP diagnostics. This change uses the
existing local callback; it adds no exporter or capture policy.

## What Changed

- Promote canonical timeline creation, reassignment and removal
projection from #18777. Initial child ownership requires a recorded
fresh-creation receipt; delegation requires a readable recorded parent.
Unknown legacy facts fail closed. User actors/owners require active
company membership; agent actors/targets must exist in that company.
Spans, events and edges share that admission filter. Remove the
introduced all-history absence query and use guarded indexed UUID
lookups.
- Add the shared/OpenAPI `unassigned` event kind, preserving newer main
contracts and issue-route/service code through reviewed semantic joins.
Existing UI consumers remain generic; no new visual marker is claimed.
- Add bounded OpenCode finish diagnostics: schema digest, hashed call
identity, closed shape enums and validation category. A throwing sink
does not change admission or cancellation.
- Pin immutable candidate `fd5e3b1e5a379524c0d1651ed8273e75ffd86541`,
composed from combined #18777 source
`b734393eff0d7ef85b7ad8abd556d2a66ca3a4e6` plus the reviewed MCP
diagnostic delta. It preserves actually merged #18775
`97c07d149b5670088faf15317dcf603c75e2af87` and #18779
`a352c057d475067b4fe67375f06785287dfbe0ce`, and merged runtime fixes
#18711, #18713 and #18718.
- Qualify narrative handling for adjacent repair/verification sentences,
intervening native-failure wording, and negated repair objects.
Questions, denials and hypotheticals retain their controls. Preserve
Previous question beside the qualified Entity type import; separately
restore the already-called `internalResultLink` goal helper binding.
That import is a runtime fixture repair, not a type-only change.
- Include the narrow older-baseline CI typecheck closure and causal
heartbeat test observers in the candidate. All four default typecheck
projects execute. Main already includes the protected upstream tooling
and newer heartbeat fixture, so neither is overwritten with an older
candidate file.
- Preserve all 244 identities, original queries, model, native/human
counts and clocks, including the explicit prior Studio accounting
exception. The full catalog stays on its candidate branch; the 196/244
gate and historical SDK runtime holds remain.

## Verification

The primary’s f478 retry repeated the real composer-hidden five-second
assertion (1 failure,18 passes,1 skip). Investigation established a
setup readiness gap: an outer route response can delay mounting the chat
thread beyond the assertion. The successor adds the existing real-thread
`aria-busy="false"` readiness barrier before the unchanged composer
assertion. The original120-second scenario and digest, unread,
source-link, history, and reply checks are unchanged. The full owning
browser scenario passed naturally in10.2s and with its first real chat
response held6000ms in12.0s. This synchronizes fixture setup; the
underlying AWS late-mount latency remains unproved.

**Current main gates passed:** exact head
`823dab49fcd8470140c178771e5c0c6b78725e97` has [successful normal
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41724620555),
including both required aggregates, fresh Greptile 5/5 and zero
unresolved review threads. Paperclip Review is neutral with a completed
substantive 5/5 and no actionable defect. The current optional
Superagent Security Scan is neutral/inconclusive: Security Graph context
retrieval returned HTTP503, so its assessment did not start. That result
supplies no security PASS credit. The primary source PR retains its
separate current-head gate before Root sequences normal protected
merges.

- Reviewed MCP controls: 130 on main and 129 on the older candidate.
Meaningful parent comparisons failed before implementation/correlation
correction. Controls cover actual offered schema identity, null/omitted
admission, bounded rejection categories and throwing-sink cancellation.
- Exact unchanged production postimages retain 63 Postgres/public-route
controls, nine plan controls and the focused index-plan proof. Owner
OpenAPI passes 32 controls; main’s newer contract passes 33. Earlier
setup/sandbox failures remain recorded; unchanged database controls were
not replayed.
- Narrative owner controls pass 216, retaining all prior 207 controls.
The independent peer passes 144 balanced cases; earlier 108 and 39-case
matrices remain retained. Actual consumer parent failures reproduced the
review findings before repair.
- Main’s server NoEmit passed on its protected baseline; only two pin
files changed afterward. The candidate’s prior full server and
four-project checks passed. All server/package/script/root-lock inputs
remain byte-identical; the changed Runner project’s guard passes on the
current source. Compatibility driver controls pass 47 and six owning
suites pass 82. The one explicitly reviewed Docker-only unit omission
concerns an unimported image-build feature; all four intended project
guards still execute.
- Pin/adapter/contract controls pass 47. All 242 expanded declarations,
the two legacy dispatch rows, and all 244 singleton private policies
retain their authenticated identities. Descriptor, launcher and
private-protocol bytes remain exact; declaration loading invoked zero
fixture callbacks.
- All 506 SDK input blobs match the meaningfully compiled `6abe5739`
source vector. Prior real shared/SDK builds measured declaration/map
changes and zero runtime-JavaScript changes; a compiled consumer accepts
the new kind and rejects an unknown kind. The reviewed registry remains
unchanged. Default source proof, 51 SDK controls, 20 custody controls
and 16 UI consumer controls remain qualified;
runtime/compiler/parser/Zod/canary pins and held runtime grades are
unchanged.
- The full Mac heartbeat run on prior observer source retained **58
passes / six failures in 802.78s**. Two nonassignee controls
subsequently pass focused checks. Four late timeout causes remain
unresolved locally; no flakiness/infrastructure cause or complete local
pass is claimed. [Actual AWS
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41712023737/job/126182620050)
ran this exact heartbeat file with **64 passes in 107.209s**. Its
server/package inputs are unchanged in the current narrative-only
successor. The source-identical f478 heartbeat file also passed all64
AWS tests in105.812s; source inputs remain unchanged. Current main
ordinary CI passed; the primary source PR must independently close its
latest-head ordinary CI gate.
- Historical main [run
41713049555](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41713049555)
recorded six synchronized runner-shutdown failures and cancellations;
the shutdown cause is unknown. A separate chat passive-control assertion
observed one `db.transaction` call where zero was expected. Finite local
probes passed 2+2 but did not establish a cause or late stack. No
external publication, cleanup cause, source fix or flakiness is
inferred. The primary’s separate composer-visibility CI failure also
remains an inconclusive historical result; no guessed fix is credited.
No old-head retry was used.
- Earlier UI/inbox fixture failures and the CLI startup timeout remain
historical. UI/inbox repairs are now upstream in #18799/#18798 and main
preserves those files verbatim. The CLI timeout cause remains unknown.
Broader local repository/Rust qualification is not claimed; fresh hosted
CI supplies broader coverage.
- All four actual repair merges, an exact merged-tree/diagnostic source
join, and fresh controller/source/private-policy/active-run guards
precede the ten-case TestOps measurement. No paid or model eval was
launched for this PR; the original three passes/seven failures remain
unchanged.

## Risks

The next ten-case model result is unproved. Earlier MCP timeout and
continuation-shape causes remain unknown; diagnostics provide future
evidence without relaxing validation or rewriting grades. Prior local/CI
failures are retained, including the unresolved chat assertion and local
heartbeat timeouts.

Initial ownership requires canonical in-window audit facts. Missing
legacy facts remain unknown. The additive `unassigned` contract is
synchronized across shared/OpenAPI/server consumers, with no new UI
marker.

SDK runtime holds and the broader 196/244 qualification gate remain.
Normal protected merges require fresh checks and resolved feedback; no
CODEOWNER or branch-protection bypass is authorized here.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` through Codex. Capabilities used: repository
analysis, code changes, source validation, and local test execution. The
context-window size is not exposed by this harness.

DottaandPaperclip 0b87308d5d fix(native): defer warm continuation during predecessor finalization (#18811)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agent work and preserves its saved results.
> - Native warm sessions can continue on a retained remote Runner.
> - A completed predecessor can still have a live finalization lease.
> - The continuation must wait for that owner before it can start work.
> - Two admission checks treated that temporary lease as ambiguous
state.
> - This pull request uses the existing deadline-based wait for both
checks.
> - The same business run can continue once, with its saved context and
gates.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A compatible remote warm continuation can fail before provider work
starts. Its predecessor has completed, but a finalizer still holds a
live lease. The warm-session check reports
`runner_state_identity_mismatch:
prior_owner_terminal_state_indeterminate`. The earlier retained-sandbox
check has the same problem on the command transport.

**Expected behavior**

Keep the unstarted continuation on its existing run. Wait until the
recorded owner deadline. Recheck ordinary ownership, Stop, credentials
and checkpoint evidence before execution.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Complete a remote warm turn and retain its controller records and
provider session.
2. Give that completed predecessor a live finalization lease.
3. Admit a compatible follow-up with full local controller projections.
4. Before this change, admission fails permanently. It must instead
persist a bounded pre-provider wait.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The PostgreSQL regression failed before production edits on
`adb49a4434`. The current head is `5762dfbe4e`, based on master
`e491b23eb5`.

**Deployment mode**

Native remote sandbox execution. No database migration or provider
artifact change is required.

Related: #18718 refreshes stale warm-controller projections. #18343 adds
controller replacement recovery. #18554 restores suspended remote
sessions. This change handles a live predecessor finalizer after those
source checks.

The shared historical error does not identify its failed predicate. This
regression proves the finalizer race; it does not prove that every
historical instance of that error had this cause.

## What Changed

- Defer a compatible warm continuation while its completed predecessor
has a live finalization lease.
- Use the same wait in the preceding retained-sandbox read check.
- Preserve the current run, provider attempt count and checkpoint. Reuse
the existing resumption scheduler.
- Add PostgreSQL cases for both finalization phases, lease expiry,
company scope, incompatible configuration, unfinished commands, Stop and
duplicate resumption claims.
- Add an opt-in three-turn Linux Runner case. Update the
child-controller fixture to own and register a local API listener.
- Document the waiting behavior and acceptance case.
- Repair two readiness barriers in the refresh-worker integration
fixture after a required CI shard failed twice: wait for paginated
startup and for active worker promises to settle before checking idle
SQL.

## Verification

- **Native regression RED:** before production edits on `adb49a4434`,
the PostgreSQL boundary case received the permanent identity error
instead of `NativeControllerRecoveryWaitingError`.
- **Regression GREEN on the current head:** all **71** focused recovery,
settlement, heartbeat safety and refresh-worker cases pass on
`5762dfbe4e` with Node 24.21.0 and PostgreSQL 18. They cover
incompatible identities, company/configuration mismatches, expired or
missing deadlines, unfinished commands, Stop, retained files and
duplicate resumption claims.
- **Real process acceptance on the current head:** the three-turn
`finalizer-wait` case passes in 58.01 seconds. PostgreSQL, TLS, a
rebuilt Linux Runner and the deterministic Codex app-server fixture
confirm zero attempts and no provider turn during the wait, one claim
resuming the same run, retained history, a healthy third warm turn and
final suspension. The sibling `warm-suspended` case from master also
passes, in a fresh container, in 46.02 seconds. Both runs use
`5762dfbe4e`; the artifacts were rebuilt from that checkout with the
repository's pinned Rust 1.97.1 toolchain.
- Acceptance used Node 24.21.0 and glibc 2.41. Earlier probes exposed
the missing fixture API listener and the preceding retained-sandbox
guard; both are corrected. A stale disposable listener and an
incompatible libc image failed setup before the successful
fresh-container run. These setup failures are not the original
regression's RED.
- Repository typecheck/build passed locally before the rebase. Server
typecheck passes after the rebase. **Full CI passes on the current
head:** 48 successful jobs and one expected scope skip, including
typecheck, build, Runner checks, all serialized-server shards, general
tests, E2E and the final aggregate. Module-boundary and whitespace
checks also pass.
- Broad local inventories are incomplete: six chat shards passed (1,834
tests), but untouched server/UI/adapter cases hit timeouts. The exact
shared-base expiration case passes alone; a full-file rerun passed all
89 assertions but timed out in teardown. A Node 24 rerun timed out in
another lifecycle case and teardown. A later PostgreSQL recheck could
not allocate shared memory; this task's redundant broad controllers were
stopped and their logs retained.
- CI attempt 1 failed a Cursor Cloud cancellation deadline, an E2E
cleanup cancellation with a PostgreSQL lock timeout, and the
refresh-worker startup settling limit. One failed-only retry passed
Runner and E2E; the same refresh startup case failed again. Two
aggregate jobs had previously stalled in the hosted-runner queue and
blocked the retry; that obsolete attempt was cancelled. No repeated
blind rerun is being used.
- **Readiness repair RED/GREEN:** real PostgreSQL 18 behind a loopback
proxy with 20 ms delay per direction reproduces the exact startup error
before the test change; the same probe passes afterward. An initial
controlled probe hit the dedicated-database naming guard before tests
ran and is excluded from RED evidence. The full-file check then exposed
a separate false-idle barrier: a worker could be running while its
scheduler had no timer. The fixture now also checks the existing
active-work tracker. All **24 cases pass** with both repairs. The
at-most-six scoped SQL reads and zero recurring idle-SQL assertions are
unchanged; startup alone has an explicit bounded condition wait. No
production behavior or timeout changes.
- Greptile and Paperclip Review are both **5/5 on the current head**,
with no open findings. Both reviews used source inspection; the runtime
evidence above was obtained separately. The previous review workspace
was recovered on the first production attempt after repairing its
partial-clone export. Its preserved result and real follow-up both
finalized successfully, saved snapshots and released their writers and
finalization leases. Three current-head CI shards received hosted-runner
shutdown signals and were cancelled. All three passed their one
justified retry. The queued aggregate had to be cancelled to schedule
that retry; the final aggregate also passed. [Current-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41706617909).
- This acceptance does not qualify a live Codex model or Daytona API run
of the native repair. No deployment or recovery of the original task is
claimed.

## Risks

- A wait must not grant a second executor. The current attempt stays at
zero until the existing scheduler claims it. Expired or missing
deadlines retain their existing hold.
- Saved state must survive the wait. Admission still requires the same
company, task, session, configuration and physical sandbox evidence.
- Current Stop, budget, credential and permission gates remain with
ordinary resumption. No polling loop is added.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The runtime does not expose the exact
serving model ID or context-window size. Capabilities: reasoning,
repository inspection, code editing, shell tools and test execution.

DottaandPaperclip e491b23eb5 fix(runner): retire sandbox suspension receipts after admission (#18829)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and their work.
> - Native Runner sessions preserve a conversation across task turns.
> - Remote suspension records a local receipt for the stopped Runner
identity.
> - The built-in sandbox path now writes the same receipt as plugin
tasks.
> - Admission cleared that receipt only for plugin tasks.
> - A later warm turn could reject a clean journal because the old
receipt named an earlier run.
> - This pull request clears the receipt after successful admission for
both sandbox paths.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18343 and #18554 for the shared suspension receipt producer. Refs
#18718 for the related controller projection refresh.

**What happened?**

After a suspended built-in sandbox session resumed, its next warm turn
could fail with `runner_state_identity_mismatch:
prior_owner_terminal_state_indeterminate`. Its journal named the
completed resumed run. Its local suspension receipt still named the
older run.

**Expected behavior**

Successful admission must retire the prior suspension receipt. The next
compatible warm turn must reuse the admitted session and provider
history once. A failed admission must retain recovery evidence.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Complete and suspend remote turn A.
2. Resume turn B through the built-in sandbox transport.
3. Keep the controller warm, with full Runner state owned by the
sandbox.
4. Admit turn C. The old local receipt conflicts with B's journal
identity.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced in the executor regression on base `367f29478d`.

**Deployment mode**

Native Runner with the built-in remote sandbox transport and a warm
lifecycle.

## What Changed

- Clear the local suspension receipt after a remote sandbox session
passes provider recovery and durable admission. Apply this to built-in
runners and plugin tasks.
- Extend the existing three-turn warm admission regression to cover a
suspended receipt and remote-only Runner state.
- Keep an active-owner control that rejects admission and retains its
receipt. Keep the existing foreign-owner, retirement, configuration,
plugin, and unchanged-session controls.
- Add a real Linux Runner continuity case that suspends A, resumes B,
and keeps B warm for C. Register the test fixture's owned local API
listener.
- Document receipt ownership and the new continuity case.

## Verification

- The new behavioral regression failed before the production change.
Turn C raised the exact identity mismatch above. The active-owner
control passed and retained its receipt.
- All 1,087 native executor tests pass after the fix.
- Both opt-in Linux process cases pass at the final commit: ordinary
warm reuse and suspension followed by warm reuse. They use PostgreSQL,
TLS, current-source Rust binaries, and a deterministic Codex fixture.
Each preserves one conversation, starts exactly three turns, and reuses
the warm Runner and provider on turn C.
- Full repository typecheck passes with `node
scripts/typecheck-low-memory.mjs`. Full production build passes with
`pnpm build`.
- All current-head CI checks pass at `a95a6fdfe8`, including the full
test shards, browser shards, Rust checks, build, and typecheck. The
policy job needed one retry after repository checkout timed out before
checks ran.
- Greptile and Ponytail each give 5/5 at the final head. There are no
open review threads or findings.
- The local full `pnpm test:run` attempt passed 351 cases in its first
chat shard. The session interruption stopped it during the second shard,
so it has no complete local verdict. The complete CI test run passes.
- Module boundary checks and `git diff --check` pass.

## Risks

- A receipt removed before admission could discard recovery evidence.
Removal stays in the successful `onSession` callback. The negative
admission control checks retention.
- A stale owner must not gain authority. Journal, run, lease, and scope
checks remain in place before the callback.
- Historical contradictory or quarantined state still requires the
existing verified recovery path. This change does not delete those
records.
- No migration or provider configuration change is required.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The runtime does not expose a more
specific model ID or context limit. Used reasoning, repository tools,
code execution, and tests.

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 8ab89f41e4 fix(build): typecheck test projects in 4 GiB (#18738)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Contributors and agents typecheck this repository, often on machines
with limited memory
> - paperclipai/paperclip#18737 made `pnpm -r typecheck` fit in 4 GiB
because the server now checks in layers
> - The test projects outside `pnpm -r` still import server source
through relative paths, so each one checks most of the server as one
program
> - These projects peaked between 6.9 GiB and 14.9 GiB, so they fail on
a 4 GiB machine
> - This pull request makes these projects read the server layers as
declarations, and adds a CI step that keeps them that way
> - The benefit is that every TypeScript project in the repository can
now be checked in 4 GiB, and a later change cannot silently undo this

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs paperclipai/paperclip#18737, which is merged. This pull request
builds on the server layers that it added. No issue exists for this gap.

**What happened?**

`tsc -p tests/runner-e2e/tsconfig.json` peaked at 14.9 GiB at default
settings. `tests/speko-native` peaked at 12.2 GiB,
`server/src/__tests__/helpers/maintenance` at 9.6 GiB, and
`tests/lifecycle-baseline` at 6.9 GiB. On one thread, `tests/runner-e2e`
still peaked at 7.7 GiB.

**Expected behavior**

Each project passes with 4 GiB of memory.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run `tsc -p tests/runner-e2e/tsconfig.json` in a Linux container with
`--memory=4g --memory-swap=4g`. The kernel stops the process.

## What Changed

- Added `tsconfig.layers.json` to the four projects. Each file extends
the project's `tsconfig.json` and references the generated server
declarations.
- Added `scripts/typecheck-test-projects.mjs`. It builds the server
declarations and then checks the named projects, or all four. It takes
`--low-memory`.
- Changed `test:e2e:runner:typecheck` and
`test:lifecycle-baseline:typecheck` to call that script.
`docker-runner-check.yml` calls the first script by name, so that
workflow needs no edit.
- Added `--declarations-only` to `server/scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs`.
The script now also generates `tsconfig.declarations.json`, so
hand-written configs do not name individual layers.
- Exported `runPnpm` from `scripts/typecheck-low-memory.mjs`, so the new
script can use it.
- Added a step to the `Typecheck + Release Registry` job. It runs
straight after the server typecheck and reuses its declarations through
`--reuse-declarations`.
- The script now fails if a project loads server source, even when the
types pass. Test support files, declaration files and JSON files do not
count. This check does not enforce a memory limit.
- Added a unit test that fails if a new project under `tests/` is
neither in `PROJECTS` nor named as a single program.
`tests/runner-acceptance` is the one named project.
- Added `server/src/types/express.d.ts` to
`tests/lifecycle-baseline/tsconfig.json`. That plain config failed alone
with 11 TS2339 errors, and it now passes.
- Exported `isTestFile` from `server/scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs`, so
the source check uses the same rule as the layers.
- Turned off `declaration` in the layered configs. These projects emit
nothing, and declaration checks gave a false TS2883 error when
`tests/runner-e2e` read the server as declarations.
- Added tests, one of which runs the real compiler. Updated
`doc/DEVELOPING.md` and `tests/lifecycle-baseline/README.md`.

The references are not in each project's `tsconfig.json` because Vitest
reads that file. A test showed that Vitest fails when a referenced
config does not exist yet. The `tsconfig.json` files do not change, so
editors and Vitest see the same configs as before.

No new `package.json` scripts were added, as `.greptile/rules.md`
requires.

## Verification

I tested commit `9763880fab`, which is based on `1c9ca5829f`. I copied
the commit into a named Docker volume and ran a fresh install. Each row
ran in its own Linux arm64 container with `--memory=4g --memory-swap=4g`
and 8 CPUs. The first row started with no build output. All rows used
`--low-memory`. CI does not set a memory limit. I used the limit only
for this measurement.

| Project | Errors | Peak (cgroup) | Max process RSS | OOM kills | Time
|
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `tests/runner-e2e` | 0 | 3.34 GiB | 3.06 GiB | 0 | 57 s |
| `tests/speko-native` | 0 | 3.60 GiB | 3.27 GiB | 0 | 51 s |
| `tests/lifecycle-baseline` | 0 | 3.43 GiB | 3.15 GiB | 0 | 50 s |
| `server/src/__tests__/helpers/maintenance` | 0 | 3.39 GiB | 3.13 GiB |
0 | 52 s |

`PAPERCLIP_TYPECHECK_LOW_MEMORY=1 pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck` and
`PAPERCLIP_TYPECHECK_LOW_MEMORY=1 pnpm
test:lifecycle-baseline:typecheck` also passed in the same limit, with
peaks of 3.55 GiB and 3.52 GiB.

I also ran the CI sequence in one container with the same limit: `pnpm
--filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`, then `node
scripts/typecheck-test-projects.mjs --low-memory --reuse-declarations`.
Both passed, with a peak of 3.46 GiB. The new step took 16 s.

The server layer build sets the peak in each row. Against the
declarations, the projects peaked between 0.9 GiB and 2.2 GiB at default
settings on macOS.

Server source files that each project loads, without test support,
declaration or JSON files:

| Project | Plain `tsconfig.json` | `tsconfig.layers.json` |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `tests/runner-e2e` | 1,345 | 0 |
| `tests/speko-native` | 1,647 | 0 |
| `tests/lifecycle-baseline` | 1,343 | 0 |
| `server/src/__tests__/helpers/maintenance` | 1,716 | 0 |

I counted these on `3f0f31b2f9`. The source check in the script
confirmed 0 for all four projects on this commit.

**Limits of this proof:**

- Without `--low-memory`, the 4 GiB run does not pass. The kernel
stopped the layer build for `tests/runner-e2e` on `3f0f31b2f9`, and the
script exited with status 1. I did not repeat this run on the final
commit. The script does not turn on low-memory mode by itself.
- The Linux runs used arm64, not x64.
- The new CI step has not run in CI. `pr-trusted.yml` runs from
`@master`, so the step first runs after this pull request merges. Check
its first run.

**Other checks on this commit:**

- `server/scripts/typecheck-layers.test.mjs`: 38 tests pass. One test
uses the real compiler to show that the source check tells a layered
config from a config with no references.
- With the references removed from
`tests/speko-native/tsconfig.layers.json`, the script exits with status
1 and reports 1,644 server source files.
- With the declarations removed, `--reuse-declarations` exits with
status 1 and reports TS6053.
- A type error in a test project makes the script exit with status 1.
- `tests/lifecycle-baseline/tsconfig.json` passes with 0 errors.
- `tests/lifecycle-baseline` Vitest suite: 533 tests pass.
- Workflow tests that read `pr-trusted.yml` and CI routing: 114 tests
pass.

**Earlier checks:**

- `server/src/__tests__/server-package-build-script.test.ts` passed 10
tests on `3f0f31b2f9`. This test failed in `ci / General tests (server
(9/12))` on an older head. It tested a build script split that the final
#18737 removed.
- A changed signature in `server/src/services/run-liveness.ts` failed
`tests/lifecycle-baseline/authority.test.ts` through the rebuilt
declarations, before the rebases. When I restored the signature, the
check passed.

**Not run locally:**

- `pnpm test:run` and `pnpm build`. CI covers these.

**Failures that this pull request does not cause:**

`pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit` has 13 failures on this commit, in
`cursor-cloud-replay-fault`, `first-task`, `operating-receipts`,
`pi-controls-evidence` and `workflow-security`. The same 13 tests fail
on `master` at `6ef37398c8`. A comparison of the test names shows no
differences. PR CI does not run this suite.

## Risks

- Low risk to runtime behavior. No shipped code changes.
- **Slower check:** `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck` now builds the
server layers on each run. Before the rebase, it took 30 s on macOS at
default settings, about the same as the old single program for that
project. On this commit it took 57 s in low-memory mode in the 4 GiB
container. The new CI step reuses the declarations, so it took 16 s.
- **Narrower check:** Server source is now checked only by the server's
own layers, not again under each project's compiler options. The
projects also skip declaration-portability checks. These projects emit
nothing, so those checks had no output to protect.
- **Unchanged path:** `tests/runner-e2e/native-completion-checks.mjs`
still runs `tsc -p tests/runner-e2e/tsconfig.json` as one program. It
needs about 15 GiB at default settings. I did not change it because that
file and its inputs are part of a fingerprinted source contract, and no
workflow calls it.
- **Layer growth:** The new checks do not measure memory. If the layers
or the import cycle grow, the checks still pass and the peak rises. This
is intentional. Crossing 4 GiB does not fail a build.
- **Project list:** The CI step checks only the projects in `PROJECTS`.
The unit test covers new projects under `tests/`, but not a new project
in another directory.
- **Reused declarations:** `--reuse-declarations` trusts the
declarations on disk. CI uses it straight after the server typecheck on
the same commit. If that typecheck fails, the job stops first. Stale
declarations can pass locally, so `doc/DEVELOPING.md` warns against
this.
- **Job dependency:** A type error in a test project now fails
`Typecheck + Release Registry`, and so `ci / verify`.
- **Not covered:** The new step runs no tests. `node
scripts/typecheck-low-memory.mjs` and the Docker image build also have
no new guard.

DottaandPaperclip 58308a3e63 perf(apps): scope sidebar review counts to one connection (#18688)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and their governed app
access.
> - The Apps sidebar displays a Review badge for one connection.
> - It polls the full company attention service every 30 seconds to get
two counts.
> - That service also loads every profile, rule and active catalog
entry.
> - This pull request adds an authorized connection read for only those
counts.
> - The same badge now avoids unrelated profile evaluation and database
result decoding.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Current behavior**

The contextual sidebar polls company-wide attention. It needs only one
connection's signed pending action count and whether any catalog entries
are quarantined.

**Proposed behavior**

Both sidebar variants poll a connection-scoped count endpoint with
existing connection read authority. The full attention API stays
unchanged.

**Reason and benefit**

The retained 200-profile fixture performs seven service queries and
returns 80,115 rows for this badge. The new reader performs one query
and returns one row. This reduces local service CPU and avoids
unnecessary decoded profile/rule data. Related merged evaluator fixes
are already in the baseline: Refs #18673, Refs #18681. A search found no
existing PR for this scoped count reader. ROADMAP.md contains no
duplicate planned work.

## What Changed

- Add the narrow shared DTO, typed client, guarded REST/OpenAPI route
and catalog-owned reader.
- Count independent aggregates with both company boundaries and exact
signed-argument semantics. Keep archived counts at zero.
- Update both contextual sidebar variants. Keep the exact badge, 30
second interval and existing attention-prefix invalidation.
- Add PostgreSQL differential tests, authenticated HTTP tests, sidebar
tests, a repeatable benchmark and access documentation.

## Verification

- Baseline: `3f8ebfff8aa9febd0733c6f65b07485dcadfd0e2`, including both
merged evaluator fixes. Service treatment: `0827f7d0b3`; route/fixture
refinement: `230c42ee15`; final local existence gate: `390a218254`.
- Passed: focused PostgreSQL differential test; assembled HTTP test with
board session and agent JWT; 14 sidebar component tests; token gates;
map checks; diff check.
- Fixture: 200 profiles, 76,000 rules, 1,900 active tools, 695 removed
references, 12 agents, a sibling connection and 2,000 unrelated
historical invocations. Complete normalized two-count results are equal
on both paths.
- Quiet local measurement: seven alternating warm pairs after two warmup
pairs, Node 24.22.2, macOS, real disposable PostgreSQL. Legacy/new
service CPU median: 213.891/1.680 ms; ranges:
209.329–228.552/0.515–6.137 ms. Wall median: 156.867/1.248 ms; ranges:
151.739–162.289/1.115–1.386 ms. Queries: 7/1. Returned rows: 80,115/1.
- Run `cd server && node --expose-gc --import
./node_modules/tsx/dist/loader.mjs
scripts/benchmark-connection-review-counts.ts`. See
`doc/connection-review-counts.md` for scope and failure history.
Byte-volume accounting runs outside timing; no HTTP payload reduction is
claimed.
- Initial raw scalar SQL failed with ambiguous columns. Typed subqueries
fixed it and passed real PostgreSQL equality. Initial fixture agents
lacked permissions and correctly received 403. The final fixture grants
explicit authority and tests revocation. An initial benchmark included
byte serialization in timing; the reported run excludes it.
- Passed required local `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`. The
initial sandbox typecheck could not open the tsx IPC socket; the
escalated rerun passed. Full monolithic `pnpm test:run` was not run
locally: repeating a 15–25 minute suite serially across both performance
PRs adds no distinct evidence. Broad suite acceptance uses final-head
CI, which runs the same general/serialized test partitions and the
native Runner lane. Final-head CI is in progress.
- Passed built-static Chromium journey on an owned local-trusted server
and disposable PostgreSQL: Review 3 appears, only scoped counts are
requested by this sidebar, resolving requests/clearing quarantines then
reloading removes the badge, and archived counts are zero. The first ad
hoc launcher omitted required decision-service options and failed at
startup; using the normal no-op wake callback fixed that harness.
- Greptile identified an invalid resolved-request fixture label.
Corrected `denied` to the declared `rejected`, then reran the real
PostgreSQL differential test. The count SQL and non-pending exclusion
are unchanged.
- The first final-head CI failed the static cross-tenant
existence-oracle guard because the new explicit resource company
assertion had no nearby `hasCompanyAccess` gate. Existing management
admission already rejects foreign resources with 404. The route now also
follows the standard local two-step gate. The unchanged guard plus
authenticated HTTP negative cases passed (3 tests). No allowlist or test
was weakened.
- These local service measurements do not prove hosted performance. No
deployment is included.

## Risks

Low risk. New read admission reuses existing current-authority checks.
The old attention API is unchanged. Counts still require database work
over relevant pending/catalog rows. No cache, schema migration or
telemetry is added. Roll back this PR if the badge differs or scoped
reads deny previously permitted users.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` (Sol 6.1), with reasoning, tool use and code
execution. The host does not expose the configured context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 554a770c6f perf(apps): scope connection profile configuration reads (#18687)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Apps Permissions page reads saved access profiles for one
connection.
> - The page fetched every company profile, rule, and binding.
> - It used only the app profile and eligible task-granted profiles for
that connection.
> - This pull request adds a saved configuration read owned by the
profile service.
> - The route keeps current connection and per-profile management
checks.
> - The benefit is fewer database rows, less Node work, and a smaller
response for the same displayed configuration.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server profile configuration reads and the Apps Permissions and Review
data caller.

**Problem or motivation**

One connection page loaded and serialized unrelated company profiles. In
the local fixture, this produced a 32.35 MB response with 76,001 rule
rows.

**Proposed solution**

Select the displayed connection's app profile and exact eligible
connection-intent profiles before loading their entries and bindings.
Return an explicit configuration DTO with complete selected arrays. Keep
summary and pending-review work on the existing full API.

**Alternatives considered**

Filtering the full response in the browser retains the database and Node
cost. Truncating the full API would break other clients. Filtering
entries to the connection would lose selectors and bindings needed by
saves.

**Roadmap alignment**

This improves the existing governed Apps capability. It does not add a
new access policy. Related merged work: #18673 and #18681. Related
harness cleanup: #18683. Public PR searches found no duplicate
connection configuration projection.

## What Changed

- Add `ToolProfileConfiguration` and `GET
/api/tool-connections/{connectionId}/profile-configuration`.
- Select `app:<connectionId>` at any status and exact active, correctly
bound `connection_intent` profiles. Run the existing per-profile
visibility filter before configuration queries.
- Preserve complete ordered entries and bindings. Keep all save
behavior, empty-binding install fallback, and the existing full profile
API.
- Switch AppDetail and AgentConnectionAccess to the configuration DTO.
Use a distinct cache key below the existing profiles prefix so mutation
and reconnect invalidations still refresh it.
- Add real PostgreSQL differential and authenticated HTTP tests, UI
caller coverage, a reproducible benchmark, and access-map documentation.

## Verification

Baseline: `3f8ebfff8aa9febd0733c6f65b07485dcadfd0e2`, after both #18673
and #18681. Final head: `b40c1ed7c0833d403e20ee8a5ff9d09f1bad6d22`.
Current implementation and reproduction details are in [the performance
note](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/b40c1ed7c0833d403e20ee8a5ff9d09f1bad6d22/doc/performance/2026-11-02-connection-profile-configuration.md).

- AppDetail: 79 tests passed. Existing access/action saves, install
fallback, grant removal, errors, and refresh cases use the new caller.
- Real PostgreSQL differential: passed. Full ordered selected
configuration equals the old full-list selection. Cases cover extra
bindings, sibling selectors, wrong source/key/status/binding, null and
non-string agent metadata, fresh mutations, empty app bindings,
visibility filtering, and company scope.
- Production HTTP authentication: API key and run JWT cases passed.
Hidden personal accounts omit spanning profiles. Private connection
reads fail. Restored ownership restores visibility. Revoked management
grants deny fresh calls. Final UID canonicalization and foreign-company
404 assertions passed on the current head.
- Map structural check, token gate, and `git diff --check`: passed.
- Required local `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed on the
current head. `pnpm test:run` was started once. Its first chat shard
passed (337 tests, 151.87 seconds); the second shard was intentionally
interrupted after the complete final-head CI suite passed. This partial
local attempt is not a full local test pass. The same stable-runner
general and serialized partitions and Runner lanes passed in [final-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41538805231),
including aggregate `ci / verify`. No local assertion failures were
observed before interruption.
- Final-head focused acceptance: four files, 85 tests passed. Full token
gates, maps, and module boundaries passed.
- Actual browser acceptance passed on the current checkout with isolated
real PostgreSQL and a local trusted board. An action saved as Off
persisted after reload. Both app agent bindings stayed intact. Removing
an agent-only task grant persisted after reload. Requests used only the
narrow profile endpoint. No browser exceptions occurred. No responses
were mocked. No provider calls or hosted changes were made. The helper
stopped the owned runtime and database after the check.
- Final exact-head checks: 54 success, one clean neutral Paperclip
Review, three skipped, zero pending or failures. Legacy Snyk status:
success. No inline review comments.
- Greptile reviewed exact head
`b40c1ed7c0833d403e20ee8a5ff9d09f1bad6d22`: 5/5, no findings, completed
successful check.

Five alternating unprofiled pairs ran with real PostgreSQL on
macOS/arm64, Node v24.22.2, and forced GC. The fixture has 210 profiles
(200 heavy profiles plus ten eligibility cases), 76,001 rules, 1,900
active tools, 695 removed tools, and 12 agents. The selected
configuration has two profiles and 1,391 rules. Each pair asserts
complete ordered selected DTO equality.

| Measurement | Full list | Configuration read |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Service wall ms, median [min, max] | 200.927 [193.319, 213.390] |
6.414 [5.508, 6.973] |
| Node CPU ms, median [min, max] | 262.751 [246.727, 271.573] | 27.525
[22.576, 29.308] |
| Select queries / returned rows | 7 / 78,139 | 3 / 1,397 |
| Actual response JSON bytes | 32,353,534 | 592,233 |
| Serialization wall ms, median [min, max] | 90.714 [88.715, 99.304] |
1.644 [1.637, 1.745] |
| Serialization CPU ms, median [min, max] | 90.644 [88.569, 96.778] |
1.654 [1.637, 1.807] |

Reproduce: `node --expose-gc --import
./server/node_modules/tsx/dist/loader.mjs
server/scripts/benchmark-connection-profile-configuration.ts 5`.

The benchmark measures the service and actual response JSON separately.
It excludes HTTP and authorization work through an identity visibility
callback. Node CPU does not include PostgreSQL CPU. No hosted or
foreground-under-load improvement is claimed.

Preserved failures: offline install lacked a locked tarball; frozen
online install passed. Sandbox localhost and tsx IPC restrictions
blocked initial DB/typecheck attempts; permitted retries use the same
checks. The first HTTP suite needed the unbuilt plugin SDK; its owning
build helper fixed setup. Shared typecheck caught a missing barrel
export, now fixed. A broad typecheck inherited the host's unpinned
nested pnpm executable; the owned stalled process was stopped and
restarted with pinned pnpm 9. The complete current-head CI suite and
aggregate verify passed. The separate Paperclip agent review published
5/5 with no findings at this head and completed with a clean neutral
conclusion. An added foreign-company assertion expected 403; the
existing guard correctly returned 404. Only the test expectation
changed. The first real browser attempt saved and reloaded the action
correctly, but grant deletion returned 422: the stress fixture had a
company binding, which makes that profile the company default. The UI
showed the existing deletion error. The second browser seed used the
production agent-only intent shape and passed removal and reload. This
does not change the stress fixture or product deletion gates. Initial
external browser script attempts also needed an ESM extension and the
correct dependency path. Logs, first-failure screenshots, traces, and
result files are retained in the local evidence directory.

## Risks

- SQL selection must stay aligned with connection-intent eligibility.
Differential fixtures cover the exact current predicate.
- A selected connection can still have many rules. This change preserves
all selected configuration.
- Per-profile authorization still reads current selected resources and
can add work. Connection visibility does not bypass that check.
- No migration, default-allow, effective-access, policy-review,
provider, or deployment behavior changes. The old endpoint remains
available. Rollback restores the old AppDetail caller and removes the
additive endpoint.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, `gpt-6.1-sol`, with code execution and repository tools.
The host does not expose the context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip d0ffa179b4 perf(tools): index profile selectors per resolution (#18673)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Core resolves tool profiles before it prepares runtime MCP
assignments.
> - A selected profile can contain a rule for each individual tool.
> - The resolver and profile summary scan these rules for each catalog
row.
> - This repeats millions of exact comparisons for a large selected
profile.
> - This pull request indexes each selector kind once per computation.
> - The benefit is less server CPU with the same current access
decisions and result contract.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Effective tool assignment and profile summary computation for large
selected profiles.

**Current behavior**

Each catalog row scans the profile's includes and excludes. The work
grows with catalog size times rule count. The runtime assignment path
also computes a profile summary with the same scans.

**Proposed behavior**

Build five selector sets for each include or exclude group. Match
catalog rows with exact set membership. Retain all current database
reads and the full result contract.

**Reason and benefit**

Reduce repeated JavaScript comparisons. On the synthetic PostgreSQL
fixture below, median process CPU per resolution falls from 50.068 ms to
10.129 ms. This is independent of
[#18371](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18371), which
removes unused administrative results and narrows instruction
descriptors. This PR retains those results and does not include that
change.

## What Changed

- Index application, connection, catalog-entry, tool-name, and risk
selectors in the profile owner.
- Use indexed matching in effective access resolution and profile
summaries.
- Add a differential test against the original single-rule matcher.
Cover null applications, exact special-character names, unknown
selectors, and empty rule groups.
- Add a PostgreSQL regression for per-profile exclusion precedence, the
union of multiple effective profiles, and current rule removal.
- Add a real PostgreSQL resolver benchmark and document reproduction and
limits.

## Verification

Baseline: `410b0e27015495ab8951768b5b0b94727de33785`. Treatment:
`895ee2eec15cf4cdedee4c257fcdddb2a7000a1b`. Node 24.22.2 on macOS arm64.
Source modules run with `tsx`; these are local service measurements, not
production-build or hosted acceptance.

The real owning resolver ran against disposable PostgreSQL with 1,890
active catalog tools, 1,575 individual include/exclude rules, one
deny-by-default effective profile, and 12 agents. The installation
dependency returns an empty list because the fixture has no installed
connections. There are no provider calls. Full returned assignments,
profile summaries, rules, bindings, and names are identical to baseline.

After two warmups per version, seven alternating samples ran ten
resolutions each. Other workers paused CPU measurements and builds.
Unrelated host work was not controlled.

| Per resolution | Baseline median (range) | Change median (range) |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Process CPU | 50.068 ms (46.380–58.880) | 10.129 ms (8.089–11.072) |
| Elapsed time | 50.362 ms (44.799–106.408) | 8.853 ms (7.719–18.590) |
| Queries | 6 | 6 |
| Returned database rows | 3,480 | 3,480 |

Median process CPU falls 79.8%; median elapsed time falls 82.4%. The
long baseline elapsed sample had no matching process CPU increase. Query
and row counts do not decrease. Small or broadly allowed profiles can
save less. This does not establish whole-run latency or hosted
performance.

Reproduce with `server/scripts/benchmark-tool-profile-matching.ts`;
baseline module preparation is in `doc/mcp-discovery-performance.md`.

Passed on the treatment source:

```sh
node node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run server/src/__tests__/tool-profile-matching.test.ts server/src/__tests__/tool-effective-assignments.test.ts server/src/services/native-runtime/runtime-context.test.ts server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-runtime-mcp-servers.test.ts
```

All 45 tests in four suites passed. `git diff --check` passed. The first
PostgreSQL test attempt failed at setup because the sandbox blocked its
loopback listener (`EPERM`); the authorized unsandboxed retry passed. No
behavior failure was discarded.

At measured head `895ee2eec15cf4cdedee4c257fcdddb2a7000a1b`, CI
typecheck, build, canary, Runner checks, and all eight browser shards
passed. Server general shard 8/12 failed an unchanged
background-quietness assertion in `heartbeat-run-dispatch-work.test.ts`:
expected 235 select calls, observed 236 after advancing fake timers. Its
cause remains unverified; no baseline reproduction was run.

That head also failed the module-boundary policy because the benchmark
inserted synthetic agents outside the test fixture tree. Follow-up head
`e20165b6eb` moves the fixture body byte-for-byte into
`server/src/__tests__/helpers/tool-profile-matching-fixture.ts`,
following the existing listing benchmark pattern. The production matcher
and benchmark measurement loop are unchanged. `node
scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs`, a Node 24/tsx fixture import
check, and `git diff --check` pass. The benchmark was not rerun for this
extraction. New-head CI and review are pending. Greptile gave the
measured head 5/5 with no actionable issues. No deployment or live
runtime mutation was performed.

## Risks

Exact equality must remain identical to the original matcher, especially
for null application selectors and exclusions. The differential and
PostgreSQL tests cover these cases. Sets add linear temporary memory in
rule count. They live only for the current computation. Current
company-scoped state reads, profile precedence, revocation, and runtime
assignment digest checks remain in place. Revert this commit to roll
back.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol (`gpt-6.1-sol`) with source inspection, code
execution, tests, and local PostgreSQL benchmarking. The context window
size is not available in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 482706e7dd perf(tools): index pending profile review scopes (#18681)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - The Apps UI lists tool profiles and shows new tools that need
review.
> - Both services project new-tool review for each profile.
> - The projection scans include rules and exact rules for each catalog
row.
> - This repeats millions of comparisons when many selected profiles
exist.
> - This pull request builds scope and selector indexes once per
projection.
> - The benefit is less server CPU with the same fresh review results.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

New-tool review projection in profile listings, profile review, and app
attention.

**Current behavior**

Each newer catalog row scans the profile's included scopes. Included
catalog entries require a map lookup for each scope comparison. Rows in
scope then scan all rules again to omit tools that were already
reviewed. Profile listing and app attention repeat this work for every
profile.

**Proposed behavior**

Index covered application and connection scopes once. Expand included
catalog entries to their existing connection and non-null application.
Index exact selectors across all rules once. Keep the ordered catalog
filter and returned metadata.

**Reason and benefit**

A recent main-thread profile identified this scope-matching path as a
large CPU consumer. The local reproduction below confirms multi-second
CPU work in the actual owning services. This PR removes the repeated
scans without caching authorization or changing database reads.

Related [#18673](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18673)
indexes effective access and profile summaries. It leaves this
pending-review path unchanged. This PR targets the separate
pending-review mechanism and has no dependency on that PR. The selector
helper is identical so the owners can share it when both changes land.

## What Changed

- Build covered application and connection sets for included scopes.
- Build exact selector sets for all rules, including exclusions, to omit
already reviewed tools.
- Preserve null application selectors, missing catalog references,
review watermarks, status checks, output order, and names.
- Add differential tests against the former scope/matching evaluator.
- Add PostgreSQL checks through all three affected service methods,
including current catalog and rule changes.
- Add a reproducible PostgreSQL benchmark of complete profile-list and
app-attention results.

## Verification

Baseline: `1f8f2e195f4897cd1c237bdc068de95780ab0c3c`. Treatment:
`fd59c0183ce64c44696f79604516f4d51ca5662b`. Node 24.22.2 on macOS arm64.
The production projection file at this baseline is identical to the file
at `410b0e27015495ab8951768b5b0b94727de33785`.

The benchmark exercises the real
`createToolProfileService(...).listProfiles` and
`createToolAppAttention(...)` methods against disposable PostgreSQL. It
uses 200 selected profiles, 1,900 active tools, 76,000 rules, and 12
agents. Profiles alternate between 65 and 695 rules. Half reference 695
removed catalog entries; half select current tools. This tests both the
slow failed scope scans and the slow exact-rule scans. No provider calls
or hosted traffic are generated.

The complete ordered results from both services match baseline. After
one equality/warmup invocation per version, five samples alternate
implementation order. Forced GC runs before each measured pair of
service calls. Other workers paused owned builds and benchmarks;
unrelated host activity was not controlled.

| One profile listing plus one attention listing | Baseline median
(range) | Change median (range) |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Process CPU | 5,406.512 ms (5,221.533–5,648.262) | 1,770.116 ms
(1,596.232–2,045.617) |
| Elapsed time | 5,279.231 ms (4,932.419–5,537.105) | 1,532.414 ms
(1,499.199–1,610.428) |
| Queries | 14 | 14 |
| Returned database rows | 156,215 | 156,215 |

Median process CPU falls **67.3%** and median elapsed time falls
**71.0%**. Profile summaries retain their old nested matching in this
comparison, so the result isolates pending-review indexing. Query counts
and row counts do not decrease. This is local source/tsx service proof.
It does not establish hosted improvement, whole-run latency, or HTTP
tail latency.

Reproduce with `server/scripts/benchmark-profile-review-projection.ts`;
baseline-module setup is documented in
`doc/mcp-discovery-performance.md`.

Passed:

```sh
node node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run server/src/__tests__/tool-profile-pending-projection.test.ts server/src/__tests__/tool-profile-review-service.test.ts server/src/__tests__/tool-profile-entry-order.test.ts
node scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs
```

All five tests in three suites passed. The differential tests cover all
selector kinds, include/exclude effects, null scope behavior, missing
references, review watermarks, and exact special-character names.
PostgreSQL checks preserve current pending counts after exclusions,
catalog removal, and review; another company remains separate. `git diff
--check` passes.

The first new integration assertion used `summary` instead of the
existing attention response's `totals` field. It failed before the
mutation checks. The test assertion was corrected; no production code
changed for that correction. The final run above passed.

Server typecheck was attempted but did not pass local setup. The
packaged command did not reach TypeScript because a global pnpm child
tried to fetch and verify the project's pnpm version through an
unavailable registry. A direct Node 24 TypeScript invocation then
reported missing built `@paperclipai/paperclip-runner` and related
package declarations, with cascading type errors in unchanged consumers.
No error points to the changed projection. The prerequisite build was
not expanded into a full workspace build. Full local unsharded tests and
build were not run; final-head CI must supply broad acceptance. No merge
or deployment was performed.

## Risks

Scope expansion must preserve existing semantics. An individual catalog
rule covers its connection and only a non-null application. An explicit
null application selector still matches null applications. Removed
references contribute no scope when absent from the supplied catalog.
The oracle and PostgreSQL tests cover these boundaries.

The indexes add linear temporary memory in rule count and live only for
one projection. Current company-scoped database reads and review
mutations remain in their owners. Exclusions remain explicitly reviewed;
they do not create new review items. Revert this commit to roll back.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol (`gpt-6.1-sol`) with source inspection, code
execution, tests, and local PostgreSQL benchmarking. The context window
size is not available in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 33fc7fcddc fix(db): clean up owned PostgreSQL test servers (#18627)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Database, server, and CLI tests use real PostgreSQL fixtures.
> - Each fixture must own its server until PostgreSQL has stopped.
> - The old teardown returned after five seconds even when its server
remained alive.
> - A startup failure could then mark the host unsupported and skip
database coverage.
> - This pull request waits for owned shutdown and makes supported-host
startup failures fail collection.
> - A shared-server command reduces process creation while keeping each
fixture's database isolated.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #7756 for related development-process ownership. That
development-server issue remains outside this test-fixture fix.
Related PR: #16799 collects macOS startup diagnostics. This PR changes
test shutdown and failure behavior.

**What happened?**

Repeated test runs can exhaust macOS PostgreSQL semaphore resources. The
fixture abandoned slow shutdown and swallowed stop errors. The support
probe converted ordinary startup failures into skipped integration
coverage.

**Expected behavior**

Tests must stop their PostgreSQL servers, retain files if stop fails,
and report resource exhaustion as a failure. Fixtures on a shared server
must not close another database's clients.

**Steps to reproduce**

Start a fixture whose PostgreSQL stop exceeds five seconds, or make a
supported-host startup fail with semaphore exhaustion. The former helper
returned from teardown or reported unsupported coverage. The new
regression tests exercise both paths without exhausting host resources.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Source checkout based on current master.

**Deployment mode**

Local source development and CI tests.

## What Changed

- Add explicit ownership for test PostgreSQL children. Wait for fast
shutdown, then request immediate PostgreSQL shutdown if needed. Keep
cleanup idempotent and fail when exit cannot be confirmed.
- Publish reusable templates only after clean shutdown. Do not publish a
crashed or immediately stopped cluster.
- Stop owned children on POSIX worker signals and process exit. Preserve
test directories when shutdown fails. Remove conflicting dependency exit
hooks.
- Retry port collisions only. Fail collection for resource exhaustion,
unavailable configured servers, and other startup failures on supported
platforms. Preserve skips for explicitly unsupported platforms.
- Move administrative-server support into the common fixture used by
database, server, and CLI tests. Close clients at database scope and
migrate cloned templates before use.
- Add a directly invoked shared-server runner to own one test server and
run suites against separate disposable databases. Preserve child exit
status and support an existing disposable server.
- Unify cancellation: stop and wait for the test process group before
PostgreSQL teardown. Add nested-process coverage, real worker-exit
coverage, shutdown regressions, shared-database isolation checks, and
setup documentation. Replace ignored heartbeat completion polls with the
existing execution drain before asserting persisted outcomes.
- Finish owned cluster-directory cleanup after signal-driven
cancellation. Preserve prepared templates across shared-fixture tests.
Remove stopped directories asynchronously, using native removal on POSIX
with a Node fallback.
- Align database and CLI fixture hook budgets with the existing
30-second server budget. This lets the ten-second shutdown protocol
finish and report errors. The idle-sleep suite uses the existing
90-second fixture budget for its unusually large final directory
cleanup.

## Verification

- The semaphore-exhaustion regression failed against the old helper
because it resolved to `supported: false` instead of rejecting.
- All 37 focused tests pass on the final runtime code (`e4de00ab40`).
They include real worker exit, SIGTERM, nested-process SIGINT/SIGTERM
cancellation with PostgreSQL available during child cleanup, failed
template shutdown, unsupported platforms, stale SQL templates, and
directory removal. A child exiting with status 7 makes the shared-server
runner return status 7 after cleanup.
- Full local `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass on the final
runtime code (`e4de00ab40`). Subsequent changes only adjust server-test
lifecycle waits, the idle-sleep cleanup budget, and documentation; the
server typecheck also passes with those final tests.
- A fresh shared-server run on `90b65fd8ad` passed all 68 database files
and 297 tests. Earlier preparation runs had two ten-second teardown
timeouts and a stale-template failure; the final helper migrates cloned
templates and permits the full shutdown budget. These earlier failures
remain accounted for here.
- The local full repository attempt stopped on a Discord receiver-lease
test after 338 passing chat tests. That exact case passed in isolation.
This full-suite attempt is not a pass.
- On `90b65fd8ad`, [server shard
6](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41496495253/job/125452949369)
and its one unchanged retry reported two 15-second cached-input
heartbeat timeouts and a 30-second idle-sleep teardown timeout. All ten
cached-input cases then passed locally with their original deadlines. A
local parallel run of the full files reported eight behavioral/hook
failures and two suite teardown timeouts (281 tests passed).
- Serial idle-sleep runs passed all 225 test assertions but overran the
30-second final hook. Tracing measured client closure in 4 ms,
PostgreSQL exit after 5 seconds, and synchronous directory removal
taking another 35 seconds. Asynchronous Node removal and native removal
also exceeded that hook under the full workload. Cleanup now remains
asynchronous and awaited, and only this heavy suite's final hook uses
the existing 90-second fixture budget. No PostgreSQL shutdown deadline
or test assertion was weakened. The serial run then passed the complete
idle-sleep file, including all 225 tests and teardown. Its heartbeat
file passed 63/64 cases, exposing an ignored three-second completion
poll. After replacing that poll with an execution drain, another timer
case exposed the same pattern (63/64 passed). All remaining ignored
completion polls now await execution drain without changing test
deadlines. The complete heartbeat file then passed all 64 tests. The
intentional asserted lock-contention poll is unchanged. The final server
typecheck passes, and a process audit found no PostgreSQL server left by
the completed local runs.
- On final head `2cf316d3f571e4516890cba743ecffeb9703cce3`, the
previously failing server shard 6, database lane, full typecheck, and
build passed. The [first CI
attempt](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41506358136)
then lost self-hosted runners in the canary and serialized-server lanes,
with additional jobs cancelled. The server-2 lane had one 30-second
timeout in the unchanged workspace-recovery HTTP Retry test (2,282 other
tests passed). That exact test passed locally with its original deadline
(28.78 seconds including imports). One unchanged retry of only failed
and cancelled jobs completed successfully on the exact final commit
(workflow attempt 2). The workspace-recovery timeout case and every
interrupted lane passed; successful first-attempt jobs were retained.
The additional Paperclip Review check remains queued, waiting for its
assigned agent; it has no unresolved GitHub review threads. Greptile
completed review on this exact final head at 5/5, with zero unresolved
review threads. All four original review findings and their threads are
resolved; additional Windows shutdown, cancellation-directory, and
template-reuse findings are fixed.
- `pnpm check:module-boundaries` and `git diff --check` passed. Post-run
process checks found no PostgreSQL servers left by the completed
verification runs.

## Risks

- Immediate PostgreSQL shutdown can require crash recovery. This
fallback applies to disposable test clusters and runs only after fast
shutdown times out.
- No process can handle `SIGKILL` or machine power loss. Host resource
cleanup remains a separate backstop.
- Directory cleanup on cancellation applies to the shared-server
runner's own cluster. Directly terminated test workers stop their
PostgreSQL process but retain disposable files for inspection. The
process-exit guard cannot await file removal.
- The two-second `pg_ctl -W` deadline bounds signal dispatch. It is
separate from the five-second and thirty-second server-exit waits. A
control-command failure fails cleanup and retains its directory; it does
not report successful cleanup or force-delete live files.
- Shared fixtures require a disposable PostgreSQL server and a role that
can create databases. The directly invoked shared command is opt-in; the
existing `pnpm test` command remains available.
- These changes do not stop unrelated development servers or delete
host-wide IPC resources. Clean shutdown uses the owned `pg_ctl` binary
on every supported platform. Its real control path was tested on macOS.
A Windows host was not available for live verification; POSIX signal
tests skip on Windows.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The runtime does not expose the exact
serving variant or context-window size. The agent used reasoning, shell
execution, code editing, and GitHub tools.

DottaandPaperclip a92f616cd0 fix(db): attribute bounded captures to execution owners (#18634)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agent work through shared server and database
services.
> - High query volume can spend main-thread time on SQL construction and
result decoding.
> - The existing bounded response capture counts rows and bytes, but it
cannot name the operation that executed a query.
> - Bundled callers can be missing, and measuring every parsed JSON
value adds work to the diagnostic.
> - This pull request carries a semantic execution owner into each
measured query and bounds response sizing.
> - Operators can rank query volume by owner before choosing a
performance fix.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17504, #17522, #17537, #17564.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The opt-in `PAPERCLIP_DB_RESPONSE_CAPTURE_WINDOW` diagnostic.

**Subsystem affected**

Database diagnostics and existing server execution boundaries.

**Current behavior**

The capture groups by table, operation, and builder caller. It cannot
distinguish execution owners that reuse a prepared query. Bundled
deployments need source maps for caller locations. The capture visits
every returned value and serializes parsed JSON again to estimate its
size.

**Proposed behavior**

Version 2 captures use fixed semantic owners for HTTP requests, delivery
queues, execution phases, and budget work. They count completed calls,
returned rows, errors, and completion wall time. They sample successful
results 1, 17, 33, and so on, with fixed cell and string/byte limits.
Complex values remain explicitly unmeasured. Semantic ownership works
without source maps.

**Reason and benefit**

A short census can identify which operations issue the most queries or
return the most rows. It preserves each query's execution owner through
pooled connections, concurrent operations, and prepared-query reuse. It
reduces diagnostic work without claiming per-query CPU attribution.

**Breaking changes**

Opt-in capture output moves from `entry.v1`/`summary.v1` to
`entry.v2`/`summary.v2`. Sampled primitive byte lower bounds replace
all-result byte estimates. Consumers must use the new fields and must
not extrapolate them into a total. There is no database migration or
application API change.

## What Changed

- Added `withDatabaseOperation(owner, action)` to the DB package. The
server owns semantic labels. Queries retain execution ownership in their
completion closure.
- Added fixed owners at existing HTTP, delivery, budget, and execution
timing boundaries. Delivery work replaces the context of the producer
that woke it.
- Added complete call/row/error counters and completion wall durations
within the existing bounded window. Durations include waits and are not
CPU measurements.
- Sampled and bounded primitive-value sizing. Complex and oversized
values remain unmeasured. Known owners skip repeated stack extraction.
- Preserved the deadline, group limit, paced output, query outcomes, and
existing coverage exclusions. Updated the operator documentation.
- Added real PostgreSQL owner-isolation and prepared-query tests, server
scope tests, and plain bundled-runtime proof.
- Moved projection-test and benchmark full-response sizing into an
explicit test helper. Existing payload-size thresholds remain unchanged;
these synthetic checks do not use the production sampler.

## Verification

- Final-commit DB capture suites: 43 tests passed in 13.86 seconds
against the actual PostgreSQL driver, including concurrent owners,
prepared reuse, transaction failure, a dedicated client, sampling, and a
query crossing the deadline. DB typecheck passed.
- Server attribution and existing delivery/execution/budget suites: 53
tests passed. Final concurrent HTTP GET/JSON POST scope refinement: 5
tests passed.
- Runtime bundle suite: 8 existing tests passed. The new no-source-map
owner test passed after its fixture was corrected to use a driver
thenable. An ordinary native Promise can bypass an overridden `.then`;
the real PostgreSQL tests separately cover driver integration.
- Observer-only experiment: three alternating pairs per case on Node
24.22.2, macOS arm64, 3,000 calls per run after warm-up. For an
already-materialized synthetic JSON result, median capture CPU fell from
82.37 to 1.87 microseconds/call. For a 100-row primitive result, it fell
from 8.10 to 4.40 microseconds/call. Every result retained identity and
all calls were counted. The new diagnostic intentionally measures less
byte data; these are observer costs, not database latency or a hosted
application speedup. Disabled-case timings were below one
microsecond/call and too small for a performance conclusion.
- Final lifecycle regression: 28 unit tests and DB typecheck passed.
Closing the last capture disables and replaces owner storage;
overlapping captures retain it.
- Final-commit full recursive typecheck passed in 38.38 seconds and full
build passed in 40.81 seconds. The build stamp matches
`83ed4ba9cebd68d48929c46f15ab32d5c0b9687b`. Focused server attribution
tests also passed 5/5 before the test-helper-only migration. Full test
acceptance will use the repository's parallel CI gates; the unsharded
local command takes hours.
- Verification failures retained: initial sandbox runs could not open
local IPC/PostgreSQL listeners; permitted reruns exercised the real
services. One old test expected JSON serialization and was updated to
assert explicit unmeasured complex values. The first bundle fixture used
the wrong promise boundary, as described above. A retained-callback
regression also demonstrated that disabling and reusing the same
AsyncLocalStorage instance could resurrect an old owner; replacing the
instance after the last capture closes fixes that case.
- The first CI run found older projection tests consuming the previous
full-response fields. Those consumers now use the full-response test
helper, preserving their byte thresholds. The two complete affected
route suites plus helper tests passed 115/115 in 73.08 seconds. A
temporary full-row query negative control then failed the unchanged
2,048-byte limit at 5,000,812 bytes and was restored; five other service
suites passed 34/34 and the affected chat cases passed 3/3. All three
previously failing CI shards passed on the corrected head. A local
skill-list benchmark smoke check completed 255 captured queries with no
in-flight queries or overflow; this was integration verification under
concurrent test load, not a timing benchmark.
- Two final-head runner jobs lost communication with GitHub before
reporting a test result. One targeted retry of those jobs and their
dependent aggregate passed. All 53 final-head checks passed, with 3
intentional skips; previously passing suites were preserved.
- Hosted capture remains pending until the reviewed revision is deployed
and a bounded window is explicitly configured.

Reproduce the focused checks with Node 24 and the repository pnpm
version:

```sh
pnpm exec vitest run packages/db/src/response-capture.test.ts packages/db/src/response-capture-postgres.test.ts
pnpm --dir server exec vitest run --config vitest.config.ts src/__tests__/database-operation-attribution.test.ts scripts/bundle-runtime.test.mjs
pnpm -r typecheck
pnpm build
```

## Risks

- Owner context is active while a valid future capture window is armed,
up to 30 minutes before accounting starts. No-window and expired calls
take the direct path. Diagnostics still add bounded work while enabled.
- A nearest nested owner is reported. Broad `http.request` and
unattributed groups remain visible; this does not identify every service
callsite or SQL shape.
- The existing census excludes tagged/raw explicit-execute/streaming
paths and internal protocol commands. Its counts are not PostgreSQL
transaction totals.
- Completion wall time includes queue/database/network/scheduling waits.
Concurrent durations overlap. Sampled bytes exclude complex values,
large strings, and values beyond the sizing limits.
- Activation is startup-only. Operators must choose the window after
artifact preparation, allow rollout/warm-up time, and remove the expired
setting afterward.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with code execution, repository inspection,
and parallel agents. The exact deployment model ID and context-window
size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 412834a860 test: overlap long recovery and maintenance waits (#18544)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - CI verifies recovery, execution authority, and background work
before changes merge.
> - Diff selection saves work, but a selected file still runs its cases
in sequence.
> - The three longest files in a recent full master run each took over
eight minutes.
> - Many of these cases must observe real lease expiry or idle periods.
> - This pull request gives independent cases separate fixtures so those
periods can overlap.
> - The benefit is a shorter test path with the same assertions and
observation windows.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18464.

The latest measured successful master [Cloud readiness
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41300933157)
spent 581 seconds in issue recovery, 569 seconds in native restart
recovery, and 512 seconds in maintenance server routes. File-level
selection cannot divide those long serial files. Shortening their lease
or idle windows would weaken the regressions they protect.

## What Changed

- Split issue recovery into four files with separate database and worker
fixtures. Keep all 18 cases.
- Split native restart coverage into recovery, lease renewal,
preparation, checkpoint cost, and disk-loss files. Keep all original 79
cases, including the existing container-qualified cases. The master
update also retains its newly added recovery cases.
- Close each native case's database clients after pending failure
reports drain. The shortened file must not rely on idle timeouts to stay
below PostgreSQL's connection cap.
- Run the native Runner lane with two isolated fork workers. Register
every new file in the lane and verify that the partition still includes
every suite.
- Give each maintenance case an owned database. Run at most two cases
together with test-local assertion contexts. Keep both real 90-second
quiet windows and all 17 cases.
- Preserve serial execution when any explicit shared
`PAPERCLIP_*_TEST_DATABASE_URL` is present. An admin URL that creates a
separate database per fixture can run concurrently.
- Refresh shard weights from the protected master run. Mark the initial
split-file weights as conservative estimates until master measures them.
- Anchor the attention-retention fake clock to PostgreSQL time. Its
fixed clock started trailing real database timestamps after 12:00 UTC on
November 1, causing an archive-deadline test to time out. Keep its
deadline assertions and timeout unchanged.
- Document the fixture and concurrency rules. Leave runner authorization
and workflows unchanged.

## Verification

- Final head `c9a4ff11b3ba81277341294c7721b34fb8705ede`: [full PR CI
passed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41477848686),
including typecheck, build, all test shards, E2E, and the final
verification gate. The rollup has 55 successful checks, one neutral
review check, four expected skips, and no pending or failed checks.
Greptile reviewed this exact head at 5/5 with no actionable findings.
- November 2 master update: merge commit
`c9a4ff11b3ba81277341294c7721b34fb8705ede` resolves the native recovery
import conflict while retaining the new busy-row and remote continuity
cases from master. All 38 test-runner checks and the three new busy-row
cases passed locally.
- Retention verification after the master update: the first local full
run passed 52 cases and timed out at 15 seconds in the paged-backlog
case. That case passed in isolation. The unchanged master suite passed
all 53 cases (82.95 seconds), and a full PR rerun also passed all 53
(76.65 seconds). The initial timeout cause remains unproven; no timeout
or assertion was weakened.
- Previously verified head `fd288a8e8c88df54dcdca7b7e42366b019182782`:
[full PR CI
passed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41312625439).
There are 55 successful checks, one neutral review check, four expected
skips, and no pending or failed checks. Greptile reviewed this head at
5/5 with no actionable findings.
- Issue recovery: 18/18 passed before and after the split on the same
local machine and PostgreSQL fixture path. Wall time changed from
**630.6 seconds to 319.7 seconds** (49% less). All case titles match.
- Maintenance also passed all 17 cases on AWS: structured file cost
dropped from **511.8 to 282.6 seconds** across the linked master run and
the first PR run. These are different CI runs, so the matched local
comparison below is the stronger isolated measurement.
- Maintenance: 17/17 passed before and after with the restored pinned
dependencies. Wall time changed from **488.1 seconds to 317.2 seconds**
(35% less). All 120 assertion lines remain. Both real 90-second windows
also passed a final targeted run.
- Native restart: 71 passed and eight existing container-only skips
before and after the split. Wall time changed from **632.1 seconds to
346.8 seconds** (45% less). All 79 cases and 254 assertion lines remain.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- Extra TypeScript checking of the moved recovery and maintenance tests
passed. The standard server config excludes `src/__tests__`. A separate
check of attention-retention fixtures reports existing type errors; the
unchanged baseline has identical diagnostics, with none introduced by
the clock fix.
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/run-vitest-stable-shard.test.mjs
scripts/ci/test-selection*.test.mjs`: 61 passed.
- `pnpm test:run`: stopped in the second chat partition: 335 passed and
four failed (two GitHub retry-state assertions and two Teams timeouts),
after 339 passed in the first partition. These chat tests are unchanged.
All four pass in a focused run (19.1 seconds). The full-suite
ordering/load cause remains unproven. All three CI chat jobs passed. The
previously failing cases passed there in 1.3, 1.3, 2.4, and 2.2 seconds;
see [the chat job
log](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41309691650/job/124857580714).
The attention-retention timeout repeated in CI and in an isolated local
run. Its fake clock was fixed at November 1 noon, which had fallen
behind real PostgreSQL timestamps. Anchoring it to the database clock
passes all 53 cases; the failed case now takes 425 ms.
- The native CI lane passed all 162 runnable cases with eight existing
skips after client cleanup: **650.7 seconds on the earlier master run to
391.0 seconds on this PR**.
- CI found native connection exhaustion after the long waits moved out
of the main file. The same failure reproduced locally at a
100-connection cap. Per-case client cleanup fixes the shortened file at
that cap, and all five native files now pass together at that cap (71
passed, eight existing skips).
- Early attempts exposed a missed fixture reference and a missed
reporting setup hook during extraction; both were restored. The first CI
policy run also required moving the new native fixture under test
helpers; that boundary check now passes locally. A separate auxiliary
command picked up the host pnpm version and removed dependencies. The
original maintenance baseline reproduced the same missing-package
failures, so that failed attempt is excluded from timing comparisons. A
later unchanged-baseline run passed all 17 cases. The pinned install was
restored before the passing maintenance run.

The audit also covered heartbeat process recovery, deferred receipts,
chat, workspace recovery, attention, and connection management. Their
shared fake clocks/provider mocks or existing partitioning need
different changes. The 16,400-row attention case and the large
checkpoint stream remain intact because their size protects real limits.

## Risks

- Two isolated processes use more memory and database connections than
one. Concurrency is capped at two. Shared database overrides force
serial execution.
- Moving setup into helpers can change test lifecycle order. The split
suites keep the same case assertions and use independent process state;
focused runs and the full CI suite check the move.
- Split-file weights are estimates based on case timings from the linked
run plus repeated setup cost. The next protected-master refresh replaces
them. Weights never permit tests to be skipped.
- Local timing varies with host load. CI measurements after merge are
needed to establish the overall PR wall-time improvement.

DottaandPaperclip 1a6017d646 fix(server): resume suspended sessions after controller replacement (#18554)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A web server replacement must preserve a completed conversation as
well as active execution.
> - A warm remote Runner can suspend before the replacement admits
another turn.
> - The replacement restores its controller checkpoint from PostgreSQL,
but lacks the Runner suspension receipt.
> - It therefore tries to adopt a live process and rejects the safely
suspended source.
> - This change restores the verified receipt and preserves retained
launch files while the old authority is reconciled.
> - Later turns can keep the same provider conversation after the old
web server filesystem is deleted.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18552, #18543, #18366.

**What happened?**

The real rolling-deployment journey passed both HTTP handoffs, with 765
reads and 78 verified saves. The first three agent turns kept their
native and provider sessions. After the second replacement, the fourth
continuation failed with `remote_warm_session_not_idle`. The remote
Runner was suspended with an empty outbox and no pending terminal. A
focused regression reproduced that exact failure. After restoring its
suspension receipt, the same test exposed a stale launch-file read
during source recovery.

**Expected behavior**

A replacement can resume the same provider conversation from a settled
suspended Runner. It must validate the physical sandbox and all
persisted identity fields. A live source must still pass the existing
adoption checks.

**Steps to reproduce**

Enable the Linux Runner fixture for
`native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`. Run the
`diskless-warm-suspended` cases. The fixture completes and gracefully
suspends each source, deletes the controller projections, and admits a
later turn from another process. It does not write a synthetic
suspension receipt.

## What Changed

- Reuse the existing per-turn suspended-receipt reader before warm
admission chooses live adoption or suspended recovery.
- Keep the receipt read retryable when a failed remote read leaves only
the controller projection.
- Leave every non-suspended warm state to the existing live-adoption
checks. A preliminary backpressure observation cannot reject admission
before that owner inspects the current Runner state.
- Preserve current sandbox binding, settled-outbox, exact-identity,
local-evidence and admission checks.
- Pass the structured launch specification to remote asset preparation.
Source reconciliation keeps the old authority's retained launch files; a
current-authority launch still stages its current files.
- Add two Linux Runner/PostgreSQL regressions for two controller-cache
deletions and three turns on one provider thread, including an
interrupted receipt read.
- Update the deployment qualification record, including the failed live
evidence and the successful staging database-idle observation.

## Verification

- Before the fix, the focused regression fails with the exact live
`remote_warm_session_not_idle` error.
- Both new regressions pass with real PostgreSQL and Linux Runner. The
provider is deterministic; this is not a live model qualification.
- The first receipt-only fix failed on the deleted controller skills
cache. The completed fix passes that same scenario without recreating
fixture launch assets.
- All 1,067 surrounding launch supervision, warm recovery, launch-asset
and controller recovery tests pass. The exact `cc23019691` server build
passes. All ten Linux continuity cases pass, including live adoption,
graceful suspension, per-turn resume, changed configuration and
failed-read retry. Each case checks provider-thread identity and exact
turn counts. The live Codex/Daytona journey passes on the same clean
source and exact build: 518 reads, 53 saves and 53 verified saves with
zero probe failures; both predecessor homes deleted; the active
execution completes once; all four turns preserve the provider
conversation and native receipts; saved files and the final command
output are independently checked. No automatic retries. Child credential
and object-storage bucket cleanup pass. Browser reconnection remains a
separate hosted acceptance check.
- The review refinement has a failing-before regression: only the
preliminary read reports transient backpressure; the subsequent adoption
reads the real Runner state. It and both suspension cases pass on the
final source (three cases), with server typecheck. The existing idle
check remains unchanged. An initial retry hit a fixture port left by the
intentional pre-fix failure; a fresh container resolved that
infrastructure error.
- Independent cleanup verification found two archived setup sandboxes
left by the live harness. Both were deleted and confirmed absent. The
failed automatic-cleanup check remains recorded.
- No claim of the ten-deploy Railway campaign or production canary yet.

## Risks

- A cold warm-session admission can now make one bounded remote state
read when local lifecycle evidence is absent. Its failure stops
admission and remains retryable.
- This path cannot replace contradictory local evidence, transfer
authority, or treat a suspended process as a live one.
- Source recovery must keep the previous authority's launch files until
reconciliation completes. The launch identity selects that behavior;
ordinary launches still prepare current assets.
- No schema migration or public API change.

OpenAI GPT-6 Codex, with reasoning, repository editing, shell execution
and integration-test tools. The exact runtime model variant and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

CI qualification note: first final-head run `41322376054` passed the
native/runtime and remaining suites but failed the unrelated
`automatic_message_on_reactivation` browser fixture at its
pre-reactivation deferred-queue count (0 rather than 1). The unchanged
test passed locally against isolated PostgreSQL (1 test, 43.6 s);
inspection found an asynchronous company-pause/fixture-seeding timing
window. Original CI logs and local evidence are retained. The single
failed-job retry passed; all final-head CI gates are green. Both reviews
are 5/5 and no review threads remain unresolved. The first local
embedded-Postgres launch failed before tests during cluster
initialization; the isolated external-Postgres test passed, and its
disposable database was removed after correcting the private launcher
cleanup call.

DottaandPaperclip 73cd8eb9a5 fix(server): deliver answers promptly during web handoff (#18530)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Its web servers can overlap while Railway replaces one deployment.
> - An answer can reach the replacement while the original server owns
the native execution.
> - A competing delivery claim can make the owner miss the first
notification.
> - The normal retry interval then delays the answer by 30 seconds.
> - This pull request gives pending answers a one-second retry in
ephemeral mode and verifies delivery between separate processes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18518 and #18526. This closes a measured native-question delivery
delay during control-plane web deployment overlap.

## What Changed

- Register question delivery through its owning service. Use a
one-second retry for ephemeral servers and retain the configured cadence
for ordinary servers.
- Keep the existing durable claims, response identity, authorization and
continuation behavior.
- Add a two-process PostgreSQL regression for a claim held by the
non-owning server. Verify one command, settlement, idle behavior and
reactivation by another committed answer.
- Keep the assembled startup fixture on the real registration function.
Update the deployment plan with current evidence and remaining
acceptance work.

## Verification

- The same local two-process race took 30.157 seconds before the fix and
1.197 seconds after it. The command sink is simulated; PostgreSQL,
notification transport, interaction response, delivery claim and worker
are real.
- The cross-process regression and assembled startup suite passed 122
tests. No further sweeps or pending inspections occur after settlement.
A second answer wakes the owner through PostgreSQL without a test-owned
sweep.
- Server TypeScript compilation passed. All PR CI gates passed on
d1d426c0dc, including full tests, typecheck, build, browser shards and
serialized suites. Greptile reviewed that head at 5/5 with no findings.
- Live provider continuation, hosted staging deployments and production
acceptance are still separate work.

## Risks

- An unresolved answer causes more frequent reconciliation in ephemeral
mode. Settled history does not keep the worker active. Existing claim
fencing and bounded error attempts are unchanged.
- A 30-second abandoned claim still needs its existing stale-claim
recovery. This change addresses released claims, not proof of provider
liveness.
- The test simulates the provider command sink. It cannot establish that
a paid model consumed the answer or that a remote execution survived a
deploy.
- No schema, API or UI changes.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 492d537340 fix(native): recover controllers across webserver replacement (#18343)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Native execution runs in a remote Runner while the webserver owns
its controller.
> - Encrypted PRP checkpoints and session snapshots already survive a
webserver restart in Postgres.
> - Ordinary warm and per-turn admission still needs local markers and
supervisor metadata to find that state.
> - Replacing the webserver with an empty native controller directory
can therefore lose a usable retained session.
> - This change adds bounded recovery metadata to the existing snapshot
transaction and reconstructs local projections from the selected durable
source.
> - The benefit is native execution continuity across webserver
replacement, with the existing ownership and agent lifecycle policies.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Native remote controller recovery and retained-session continuation
during a webserver upgrade.

**Subsystem affected**

server/ — native runtime, checkpoint persistence, recovery scheduling
and internal upgrade reporting. Product E2E qualification also changes.

**Current behavior**

Without both the local PRP marker and supervisor file, normal
continuation can return before discovering the saved Postgres
checkpoint. The snapshot already exists in Postgres, but its local reuse
compatibility envelope cannot be reconstructed.

**Proposed behavior**

Select the existing durable source, validate its identity and ownership,
restore its PRP state and supervisor projection, then use normal
authenticated admission. Missing or inconsistent evidence holds
recovery. It does not authorize fresh provider work.

**Reason and benefit**

A replacement webserver must recover active execution and later continue
its retained session without the old server's native files. This is one
component of deployment continuity. HTTP traffic switching, workspace
storage migration and Railway rollout remain separate.

**Breaking changes**

No new public endpoint, schema migration or database pool. The private
run-profile envelope is additive. Disk-independent rollback also
requires a reader for the staged controller format and compact
checkpoint part; the first production release containing these readers
is the floor. Older file-backed sessions need an owner checkpoint or the
bounded internal importer.

**Additional context**

Related foundations: #17401, #17916, #17254, #14621, #14622. The
implementation contract and open acceptance gates are in [the dated
plan](doc/plans/2026-10-30-native-controller-checkpoints.md).

## What Changed

- Persist a versioned recovery envelope, at most 4 KiB, beside the
redacted session snapshot in its existing transaction. Keep it out of
public run projections.
- Compare frozen admission separately from prepared attachment
instructions during staged recovery, preserving exact
template/identity/authority checks.
- Bound the existing lazy checkpoint pool at three connections after
measured two-slot burst backlog; keep request/renewal capacities and SQL
operation counts unchanged. The tuning is a separate commit.
- Discover and restore the exact selected retained source without local
native markers. Preserve the 32-candidate window, progress barriers and
current authority checks.
- Fence snapshot and result writes. Acquire coordinator, issue and run
locks in order and check expiry after lock waits. Combine snapshot
ownership/read work into one statement.
- Reuse existing recovery deadlines and drain/resume scheduling.
Retained-owner waits preserve the original unstarted run and actual
lease deadline. Stop, ownership and provider-progress fences precede
deferral. Add bounded native evidence reporting, retained-source import
and retention protection.
- Admit a settled warm source with an authenticated idle goal-read
suffix while retaining active-work and mixed-authority holds.
- Permit lifecycle `turn.stop` checkpoints after accepted results under
existing ownership fences. Claim the existing successor coordinator
before retiring the old warm session, and stage shared attachments only
after verified retirement. Preserve omitted isolated-home defaults and
existing fresh skill-selection order during recovery without hiding real
configuration changes.
- Carry the exact durable six-field PRP binding during active recovery
after a healthy warm handoff. Keep the Runner mismatch guard and
preserve opaque attachment IDs.
- Preserve an already verified active or idle warm process during remote
preparation; revalidate its proof/liveness and retain later
authenticated PRP attachment. Ordinary resumed leases retain suspension
checks.
- Drain retained source events under their original authority, reconcile
immutable source accounting and block unknown source tool dispatch
before target work.
- Persist compact staged handoff intent through authenticated adoption
and recover direct/listener command-loss windows without another Runner
or duplicate attachment.
- Rebuild suspended lifecycle receipts for resumed prepared tasks, and
retry missing lifecycle reads after partial PRP materialization without
overwriting contradictory evidence.
- Add normal warm/per-turn diskless continuation coverage, real Postgres
races and SQL-cost checks. Add a reproducible paired load workload.
- Give only the explicit outage fixture a 15-minute provider idle
window, with a red/green catalog regression preserving all production
timing and lifecycle policies.
- Publish the goal-less task-session pointer in the existing
post-acceptance terminal checkpoint transaction, with current ownership,
accepted-result, reset and newer-progress fences. Keep a private bound
receipt so late completion cannot duplicate or resurrect publication.
- Use a retained warm sandbox in the dedicated continuity fixture, and
accept an exact output token followed by an explanation. Keep the strict
identity oracle.
- Extend the explicit Daytona cell to a five-minute active outage and
another replacement after completion. Require retained provider
identity, a new tool receipt and a useful follow-up result. Add an owned
loopback Postgres E2E fixture for hosts that cannot start embedded
Postgres.

## Verification

**Merge recommendation — `fc68584ce6231a02e47ecd743f55b036ccea034f`:
ready for the qualified native-controller component.** Full CI, fresh
review, local application paths, controlled performance qualification
and the strict live Linux/Daytona case pass. Independent resource
cleanup is complete. Broader rollout, browser reconnection and the
unexecuted transport/platform combinations remain integration gates.
Integrated 484 passed full local recursive typecheck/build and ordinary
active→completion→cache-loss→C component qualification. Fresh review
then found a valid attached-wake failure: preparation appends attachment
instructions before the verifier compares execution to the frozen
admission. 9f4 fixes that by separately checking the pre-preparation
admission and exact prepared execution. Both hashes are captured
privately per admission; the full template, identity, configuration and
authority checks remain. Its regression fails before the fix; 36 focused
cases, 42 staged source/target cases and server typecheck pass
afterward. The review thread is resolved. Exact-head full CI passes
([run
41168228822](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41168228822):
48 successful jobs, one intended skip); the complete `pnpm test:run`
partitions are forced, with the five native suites in the Runner lane.
This is not a claim that an unsharded local command passed. The fresh
exact-head Greptile check succeeds with 5/5 and all six threads
resolved.

The original two-connection database comparison closes **steady PASS and
burst FAIL**. Every relative CPU/WAL/request-p99 gate passes and all
operations/ownership remain correct, but candidate arm 3 drains in
1,015.99 ms and baseline arm 4 in 1,059.67 ms against the unchanged
1,000 ms absolute gate. Those results remain failed. A separate 2→3→4→2
diagnostic reproduces drain times 1,051.57 / 956.79 / 882.02 / 1,065.72
ms: three is the smallest tested passing cap, and the repeated two-cap
failure survives run-order/cache effects.

Separately reviewable `fc68584ce6` changes the existing lazy checkpoint
pool default to three connections. Request capacity stays ten and
liveness two; idle release, shutdown fencing, transaction counts and
pool count are unchanged. Thirteen DB lifecycle/cap tests and DB
typecheck pass. Full recursive typecheck/build pass at exact fc68584,
with the matching server build stamp. The final paired native
feature-cost comparison explicitly uses the **same cap-three policy and
common current DB factory in both variants**; its baseline is
controlled, not the unmodified historical cap-two configuration.
Original gates and workload counts remain unchanged. The one strict
Linux/Daytona case started at 04:40:56 UTC only after both new profiles
passed; it passed on the first attempt with all 49 workflow checks.
Independent cleanup confirms all three owned sandboxes absent, owned
Postgres/controllers/observer gone, VM terminated, root volume absent
and ephemeral SSH key/agent removed.

**Final controlled cap-three qualification: PASS.** Baseline native
implementation `59da15066a` and candidate `fc68584ce6` use the same
current DB factory and checkpoint policy (request/liveness/checkpoint =
10/2/3). Eight 65-second ABBA arms cover 300 controllers and 10,000
historical tasks. All correctness, absolute and 10% relative gates pass;
original cap-two failures remain unchanged.

| Mode | DB CPU µs/op, baseline → candidate | WAL B/op, baseline →
candidate | DB-request p99 ms, baseline → candidate | Maximum drain |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Steady | 542.40 → 554.83 (+2.29%) | 1509.01 → 1558.27 (+3.26%) |
107.11 → 111.90 (+4.48%) | 26.35 ms |
| Burst | 1036.36 → 1063.11 (+2.58%) | 4153.12 → 4317.64 (+3.96%) |
103.736 → 103.841 (+0.10%) | 930.14 ms |

Every matched arm preserves operation/statement/transaction counts,
including 3,900 PRP and 3,900 snapshot transactions. All three actual
pools are included; there are zero lost owners, missed lease deadlines,
dropped operations or errors. Peak Postgres CPU is 18.31%/9.47% of two
cores and memory 614.29/684.42 MiB (steady/burst). The benchmark uses
one Node process simulating 300 controllers; it does not qualify
two-webserver overlap, HTTP latency or hosted capacity. Its observer SQL
contributes to measured database CPU. The original unmodified cap-two
baseline is separately retained as failed; this cap-three comparison is
explicitly controlled.

The exact final-source 8/512/8,192-chunk test also passes: zero recovery
SQL, transactions or changed rows in each text-only interval, zero idle
SQL, seven lifecycle transactions and twelve changed rows per sample.
Existing lease traffic remains separate. The final ordinary managed
application replay passes active recovery, completion, native-cache
removal and C continuation; its UNKNOWN local debug-daemon provenance
and partial instruction-observer limits remain recorded. The live case
uses the attested Linux producer instead.


**Live qualification: PASS, one attempt, no retries.** Campaign
`native-controller-retained-fix-fc68584ce6-ec2-20261031T044055Z` started
04:40:56 UTC on the exact final Linux webserver source; suite definition
hash `12f9bb97823c1537e43f0398e7cddf39890f77bce7b413ca4dfd944f4a30e5d5`.
The existing immutable image and attested Bookworm Runner artifact are
unchanged.

- A was SIGKILLed and its native cache discarded. B started after
300,149 ms, naturally acquired generation 2, authenticated at 316,624 ms
and resumed at 317,682 ms within the original 420,000 ms grace. The same
active run, Runner, provider PID/start fingerprint and one
submitted/started/accepted turn were preserved; one final
result/terminal and workspace finalization completed, with no
retry/recovery action.
- After active and queued completion, B was SIGKILLed and its native
cache discarded again. C received exactly one ordinary task-comment API
follow-up, completed a new tool and produced a useful reply while
preserving native/provider/Runner identities. This closes the earlier
failed post-C gate. A separate C OS-process PID field was not exported;
the physical-PID proof is specifically A→B.
- Four distinct results were accepted and published; all four
finalizations committed at attempt 1, all four accounting-v2 projections
settled, and the task-session pointer advanced to C. The coordinator
independently checked these facts and all 49 canonical checks against
the sanitized receipts.
- Canonical cleanup passed and independent checks confirmed three exact
sandbox 404s plus complete inventory/zero owned remnants, no owned PG or
controller/observer processes, EC2 terminated, root volume absent, and
the ephemeral SSH key/agent removed by 04:54:25 UTC.

Live scope is classic remote Codex warm continuity with non-native
storage dependencies available. Prepared-task completed B→C, full
per-turn application disk loss, browser reconnection, two-server load
and overall Railway/HTTP continuity were not live-qualified here.
Earlier failed campaigns and the original cap-two burst failure remain
failed historical evidence. A report-renderer cache setup failure was
preserved; the normal sanitizer subsequently succeeded with an explicit
cache path and a new output directory, without changing validators.


The repair keeps retained events under their original six-field
authority until persistence and accounting accept them. Unknown semantic
effects stay unresolved. A compact staged target survives source
bootstrap, cached-command delivery and authenticated handoff, including
an uncertain commit response. Direct and same-guest-listener recovery
require the verified original Runner and the exact endpoint. Target
snapshot publication marks readiness in memory, with retirement
coalesced into an existing command write. Headers contain only the
staged descriptor/digest; a prequeue template is written once as a
changed checkpoint part and then recovered from the existing
command/receipt. No second session snapshot transaction, streaming SQL
path, new pool or recurring idle scan is added.

| Current repair gate | Evidence and scope |
| --- | --- |
| Source-tail regression | Real Runner protocol RED reproduced
attachment rejection. Frozen core/transport pass five source-tail cases:
source usage attribution, held persistence/no premature ACK, lost commit
response plus cache loss, unknown semantic hold and accounting rejection
hold. |
| Handoff loss windows | Direct and listener modes pass
queued/prepared/activated/completed boundaries (eight cells), preserving
the actual Runner/provider process. Missing adoption proof and changed
endpoints reject recovery. |
| Compact storage | A 31 KiB attachment grant writes its separate part
once, leaves it unchanged across source snapshots and removes it at
queueing. Headers do not duplicate the grant. |
| Accounting | 21 real-Postgres usage tests and 19 source-binding tests
pass. Recovery hydrates immutable source receipts without resetting
their producer or billing classification; conflicting/incomplete usage
holds. |
| Admission and malformed evidence | Driver 16, staged evidence 42,
restart classifier 27 and source usage 19 focused cases pass. Four
malformed-file regressions pass at d6a7, whose executor is
byte-identical at 484, and server typecheck passes. Full executor file:
990 pass; 16 embedded-Postgres `initdb` setup failures before
assertions, retained separately. |
| Required checks | Exact fc68584 recursive typecheck and build pass
locally, with matching server stamp. Forced full CI succeeds (48 jobs
pass, one intended skip); all PR checks are clean. Maps/token gates pass
for their unchanged source surfaces. Fresh exact-head Greptile is 5/5,
all six threads resolved. |
| Ordinary application path | Exact fc68584 managed component passes
active recovery after natural expiry, completion, native-cache loss and
ordinary C continuation. Production bytes match before/after; temporary
fixtures restored and owned DB/services cleaned. UNKNOWN local
debug-daemon/partial instruction-observer limits remain; the separate
live case uses the attested Linux producer. |
| Producer | Locked Bookworm build from exact 5b7 Rust tree
d03e494217, equal to final fc68584 Rust
source. SHA-256
65b8f8cfdd6099e9ad24f1ca154e8a260777269cc82f6e23c6e6a180c531eaaf;
38,515,328 bytes. Actual Debian 12 execution and live admission pass.
Controller/admission/DB changes do not relabel the producer source. |
| Historical cap-two comparison | Exact 59da baseline vs 5b7 candidate,
300 controllers/10,000 history, ABBA 4×65 s per mode, all three actual
pools and real snapshots. Steady CPU/op 541.36→554.64 µs (+2.45%);
WAL/op 1512.13→1560.99 B (+3.23%); DB-request p99 102.78→105.99 ms
(+3.12%): PASS. Burst CPU/op +4.71%, WAL/op +5.29%, p99 −0.10% pass
relative gates, but absolute drains above fail. Identical operation/SQL
counts, zero lost leases/drops/errors. One Node process simulates 300
controllers; this does not qualify two-webserver overlap or HTTP
capacity. |
| Live acceptance | Strict final-source Linux classic Codex case passes
1/1 on attempt 1, all 49 checks. Active recovery within grace and useful
retained C continuation succeed; four
accepted/published/committed/settled outcomes. Independent provider,
PG/process, VM/root and SSH cleanup complete. Prepared/task and broader
rollout limits are explicit above. |

**Historical qualification snapshot through `9eb9ac6`.** The head at
this snapshot was `9eb9ac6f9e312f3ebe8040f5a7565e88ae8824f3`. Server and
Runner package sources are byte-identical to `283e05ffaa`; the two later
commits change the explicitly scoped qualification and its documentation
only. It includes master through the storage-owner fix
`45a3a92e6dc52d20923b9aa34a22fee2ec5443f9` (#18357). At that snapshot,
CI/review passed but the strict post-C native recovery gate failed; the
PR stayed draft and required another native repair. Prior `39a4343` CI
and review passed, but its full live workflow failed; that grade remains
unchanged. The first repaired `435ccd2` live attempt failed before any
injected outage. It exposed a legitimate terminal snapshot before result
acceptance; no accepted result ID or publication receipt was observed.
Its canonical report remains 0/1 `candidate_failure`, with cleanup
passed and independent provider absence confirmed. `0862062` defers
publication until result acceptance and fixes the fresh review's
coordinator/issue lock-order finding. Both failures have deterministic
real-Postgres regressions. The `0862062` live attempt then proved
accepted-result publication but failed active recovery: a resumed-lease
preparation guard demanded suspension after the exact live Runner was
already verified for adoption. `64c0b746` preserves that verified
active/idle-warm process, revalidates its proof/liveness, and keeps
ordinary suspension checks and later PRP authentication. Its live run
passed preparation but exposed a second active-warm boundary: all
durable binding fields matched except opaque turn/item attachment IDs,
which the server had regenerated. `7a203274` carries the complete
verified six-field binding and keeps the strict Runner mismatch guard.
Its cloud case then passed active adoption, completion, publication and
accounting. The queued continuation exposed accepted-result retirement
writes and an implicit-home fingerprint drift; both are fixed with
deterministic regressions in `39a4343` before this fresh full
qualification.

The prior live case exposed a real publication gap. A goal-less native
turn could persist its accepted result and terminal snapshot before
provider cleanup, while the task-session pointer was still empty. Normal
later admission then selected a fresh session. The fix publishes that
pointer and a private bound receipt in the **existing post-acceptance
terminal checkpoint transaction**, before cleanup. Earlier terminal
observations persist without a handled receipt or continuation pointer.
No result-acceptance or snapshot transaction was added. The late
completion path recognizes the receipt. This also prevents a late
callback from restoring a pointer after a user reset. Goal/control
publication keeps its existing owner.

The dedicated Daytona fixture now uses the existing warm/reusable
environment. Its sandbox, Runner and provider storage must survive. The
former generic per-turn fixture disposed the sandbox after completion
and kept provider-history backup bytes under the discarded directory.
Whole per-turn disk-loss acceptance therefore has a separate
provider-backup storage dependency. It remains distinct from the passing
native per-turn component checks with backup storage available. The
60-second lease, 300-second outage and 420-second grace are unchanged.

| Gate | Current repair evidence |
| --- | --- |
| Assembled regression | Baseline fails with an accepted result and
terminal snapshot but a NULL task pointer while real provider cleanup is
held. The fix passes normal continuation and reset cases, with no
pointer seeding. Exact merged `92b7447` passed 2/2 twice, including
after normal package TypeScript output refresh. Production files are
byte-identical at frozen `435ccd2`. |
| Persistence and concurrency | 19 helper/transaction cases and all 59
existing control-port cases pass on `0862062`. They cover bound result
IDs, reset/newer epochs, Stop, lock waits and expiry, receipt replay,
missing stubs, foreign bindings and atomic 4 KiB rollback. Existing
snapshot transaction count stays one. The new tests reproduce the exact
live missing-result-ID error and the inverse replay/status lock order
against `435ccd2`, then pass after the correction. Replayed results
still reject stale generations. |
| Completion | All 32 completion-boundary tests pass on merged
`92b7447`; the source is unchanged at `435ccd2`. Native result-shaped
session metadata is preserved. |
| Qualification fixture | A valid review report reproduced three
rejected correct replies. Exact token-boundary matching fixes them. 140
focused E2E/catalog cases and Product E2E typecheck pass. Wrong tokens,
marker prefixes/suffixes and wrong authors remain rejected;
retained-identity checks are unchanged. |
| Required checks | Full recursive typecheck and standard build passed
at `435ccd2`. Both exact commands also passed on `0862062`, with its
exact server build stamp; both also pass on `7a203274`, with its exact
server build stamp. Fresh `0862062` Greptile passed 5/5, with zero
unresolved threads. The `64c0b746` normal CI then passed all 49 jobs (48
success, one expected skip) and Greptile passed 5/5 with zero unresolved
findings. The `7a203274` normal CI also passed 48 jobs with one expected
skip, with fresh Greptile 5/5 and zero unresolved findings. Current
`39a4343` recursive typecheck and standard build both pass with
persisted exit codes and its exact build stamp; fresh Greptile is 5/5
with zero unresolved findings. Its normal CI completed successfully: 48
jobs passed and one expected job skipped. The fresh live result remains
separately failed. The `0862062` normal CI had 46 passing jobs, one
expected skip, one worker communication failure and its aggregate
failure; GitHub states the self-hosted runner lost communication. No
failed assertion or specific OOM/spot cause was established, and no
blind retry was used. |
| PostgreSQL supplement | One corrected all-pool pair at the preceding
repair passed 300-controller/10,000-history correctness and absolute
gates. SQL 76,590→75,990; transactions 9,013→8,713; UPDATE rows 11,613
each; 300 correct pointer writes each. PG CPU 31.99→30.46 s, WAL
70.36→67.87 MB, request p99 100.98→103.12 ms. This is one pair, not a
repeated improvement claim or an exact `0862062` CPU measurement. Its
two later changes defer premature publication and reorder existing
locks; they add no transaction, stream/idle writer, pool or timer. The
first collapsed-pool attempt remains invalid and retained. This is not
an exact final-head CPU/WAL measurement; later fixes change ordering,
identity selection and in-memory skill replacement without adding
snapshot transactions, pools, stream writes or idle SQL. |
| Live publication proof (`0862062`) | Baseline run
`06fcc806-f186-4190-9b57-087b61d75533` accepted result
`58f912dc-94d9-4b4d-bd3d-d5f689c83fd3`; the publication receipt names
the same result, the task pointer has parameters and `lastRunId`
matches, and the normalized native identity matches the following active
run. Accounting v2 settled. |
| Active recovery (`0862062`) | **FAIL.** SIGKILL/cache discard at
23:07:28.666 UTC; hold 300,000.859 ms; B ready at 308,896.486 ms;
natural generation-2 ownership at 312,906 ms. At about 319 s,
preparation failed `runner_harness_state_mismatch:
resumed_not_suspended`. No authenticated after-receipt passed within 420
s. Exact original Runner PID 668/start/fingerprint was independently
still alive; provider auto-stop was 15 minutes. No retained C follow-up
qualified. Canonical 0/1 `cleanup_failure`/cleanup-failed report remains
failed; subsequent independent cleanup deleted all three owned resources
with exact 404s and confirmed full intended-account inventory with zero
owned resources. |
| Verified adoption preparation (`64c0b746`) | 91 focused cases pass,
including actual preparation for four active providers and a distinct
prior/current warm proof. Unproved resumed state, dead process and stale
warm owner remain rejected. The earlier options-only fixture missed this
gate. No spawn, backup restore or PRP-authentication bypass was added.
Server typecheck passes. |
| Active warm identity (`64c0b746`) | **FAIL.** B claimed generation 2
at 312,995 ms. Preparation passed, then strict PRP recovery rejected the
generated attachment IDs at about 319 s. The saved and desired Runner,
lease, normalized session and run IDs matched; only
`turn_attachment_…`/`item_attachment_…` differed from generated
`turn-<run>`/`item-<run>`. Canonical 0/1 cleanup-failed report remains
failed; independent cleanup confirmed deletion/404s and zero owned
provider resources. |
| Six-field identity repair (`7a203274`) | Actual server-factory
regression RED4→GREEN38. A real Rust Runner test passes healthy first
run → random-ID warm handoff → held active second run → restored
controller. It verifies a new live authenticated connection, exact
identity, same Runner/provider OS identities, no duplicate launch/turn,
and no redispatch or invented receipt for an uncertain tool. The
synthetic wrong pair still fails the unchanged guard. This protocol case
does not claim business completion. Server and Runner typechecks pass. |
| Active recovery/completion (`7a203274`) | **PASS for the active
component.** Full five-minute SIGKILL/cache-loss hold. B ready at
308,936.651 ms; natural generation 2 observed 312,979 ms; authenticated
at 317,720 ms and resumed processing at 318,527 ms. Same run
`1e1ccb00-0728-4935-97da-57562d81cb42`, Runner
`246f73f7-a689-4177-a9c2-7ce711d63aed`, remote PID 669/start
23:48:27.470, provider lease/session and one submitted turn. Accepted
result `49097529-5310-4ac3-af95-5bf9b91d19f4`, publication, finalization
and accounting v2 all settled. |
| Full workflow (`7a203274`) | **FAIL, preserved.** Queued
late-requirement run `5e61f38d-c7d1-4fc1-bcbf-bce9d46ce4eb` failed
`runner did not durably suspend before checkpoint` before outage 2.
Canonical 0/1 candidate failure, cleanup passed, evidence valid. C
retention was not exercised. Independent provider absence,
controllers/PG cleanup, EC2 termination and root-volume absence all
confirmed; closed receipt SHA-256
`676a3b15eb9937b6bf995c36fb8666c88964d509e5ceb9109fb02da0aa2bc909`. |
| Retirement and stable configuration (`39a4343`) | Real Runner +
Postgres RED reproduced the exact suspension failure and nine owner
rejections. `turn.stop` is now lifecycle checkpoint maintenance under
unchanged owner/result/generation fences. GREEN25/25 proves actual
persisted suspension, exact identity and completed stop/drain/suspend;
unaccepted, foreign, stale and new-work negatives remain rejected. Two
default-home fingerprint REDs become GREEN9/9; explicit mode changes
still invalidate. No global matching exemption or historical fingerprint
rewrite. |
| Fresh full Daytona warm cell (`39a4343`) | **FAIL, preserved.**
Launched 00:15:29 UTC with automatic retries disabled. Active adoption
passed: actual offline hold 300,000.848 ms; B ready 309,922.155 ms;
natural generation 2 at 311,821 ms; authenticated 317,989 ms; resumed
330,440 ms. Same run `3e126819-e786-4b3b-b923-c975cf4f5b79`, Runner
`4079138a-8d7c-44a4-8558-07a5411d1f55`, PID 668/start and
provider/session identities. Accepted result
`08e504af-4dec-48a8-bf05-bf0a32280559` and publication passed. Queued
run `31d168c9-7ab9-4700-abb6-fafb90912237` failed the same strict
suspension error before outage 2. Its row selected a new native
identity, but no new third provider process or invocation was observed.
Recovery-time configuration still reset only `adapterConfig`; native
provider, context and workspace subtrees were unchanged. Canonical 0/1
candidate failure, evidence valid, normal cleanup passed; all campaign
provider/PG/process resources independently absent. Closed campaign
receipt SHA-256
`5e7d6281c13c812f3a946667f97f3c7d339b5ad86a3a819bd185b2fa73bc4a19`;
EC2/SSH remain temporarily held for the concrete follow-up repair.
Original 60/300/420-second limits and strict queued/second-replacement
checks remain unchanged. Direct-process path; no new live prepared-task
claim. |
| Native retirement authority (`283e05ffaa`) | Exact `39a4343` facade
regression RED3→GREEN9. The successor now uses its existing production
coordinator claim and prompt renewal before strict retirement. A real
Runner/Postgres case starts in the actual native-observed/unclaimed
phase, claims through production code, then closes and durably suspends
the predecessor in 1.657 s. All 25 real-Postgres cases pass;
unclaimed/foreign writers remain rejected. Shared attachment staging
stays after retirement; Stop and denied claims neither close nor stage.
No new claim or SQL path was added. |
| Configuration continuity (`283e05ffaa`) | Real shared/project-primary
environment selection → configuration with four skill versions
reproduces `reset: true`, changed category exactly `adapterConfig`,
after a Postgres JSONB read. Pinned restoration had reordered the
generated preference while actual runtime skills stayed identical.
Replacing existing pinned rows in place preserves the original fresh
name/key order and fingerprint. The assembled regression passes, as do
three existing pinned-version/rename/alias cases and server typecheck.
Genuine model/skill-selection changes still invalidate. No
fingerprint-format change or broad compatibility exemption. |
| Final production repair (`283e05ffaa`) | Full recursive
typecheck/build and [normal
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41151145106)
PASS: 48 jobs plus one expected skip. Fresh review 5/5, zero unresolved
threads. Live baseline, recovered run and queued continuation all
succeeded, each accepted/published/committed once with accounting v2
settled. Their native/provider identities and configuration fingerprint
match; both recovery and continuation report no reset, no changed
categories and task-session reuse. Active outage/authentication remains
within original timing. |
| Browser-dependent continuation (`283e05ffaa`, definition 6) | **Whole
cell FAIL, preserved.** After B was killed at 00:46:38.928 and its cache
discarded, C became ready in 9,151.410 ms. `openParent()` then hit a
30-second `page.goto`/DOMContentLoaded timeout before posting the final
request. No fourth native run or C continuation was exercised. Cause of
navigation timeout is unknown. C task had no execution lock, queued
comments, handoff or recovery blocker; all three prior runs were
committed/accounted. Normal cleanup passed; independent provider
absence, controller/PG cleanup, EC2 termination and exact root-volume
absence confirmed. Sanitized report bundle SHA-256
`2a3b841d62efb2ae30ef14f96a431ac4fa7fe3a782f1144831512f78edc65022`. |
| Native API continuation qualification (`9eb9ac6f9e`, definition 7) |
**FAIL, preserved.** The real post-C API request dispatched run
`c71fbb18-f979-4fe4-93ce-9c4be46dbf21`, which failed
`native_session_interrupted` / `native_session_recovery_failed` at
01:10:00.640 UTC. It selected the same normalized native identity,
Runner and checkpoint-provider identity as the three succeeded turns. No
C result was accepted; pending accounting remains explicit. Active
recovery passed: actual offline hold 300,001.098 ms, B ready 308,335.019
ms, natural generation 2 observed 311,818 ms, authenticated 315,540 ms,
resumed 316,612 ms. Queued continuation succeeded/accepted/published. B
was then killed/cache discarded at 01:09:34.500 and C ready in 8,783.803
ms. Original classifier `transient_infrastructure`, whole-case failure
and cleanup passed are unchanged; that classifier does not establish the
root cause. All owned provider/PG/process resources, EC2, root volume
and SSH agent independently absent. Closed receipt SHA-256

Exact backend detail is unavailable in approved structured evidence. |
| Current required checks (`9eb9ac6f9e`) | Recursive typecheck, standard
build and exact build stamp PASS. [Normal
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41152908417)
PASS: 48 jobs plus one expected skip. Fresh Greptile 5/5, latest edited
summary checked, zero unresolved threads. Exact8/512/8,192 stream probes
again report zero recovery SQL/transactions/rows and settled-idle SQL;
seven control transactions/twelve changed rows each, with 36 separate
legitimate renewals in the longest case. CI success does not supersede
the failed live C gate. |

The completion supplement observed secondary request/liveness/checkpoint
transaction p99 increases of 23.0%/45.7%/15.6% in its single pair.
Renewal p99 stayed below 0.865 s, with 900 successful renewals per arm
and no lost leases. The named pool caps stayed 10+2+2. An aggregate
activity sample peaked at 15 non-observer entries without backend-type
classification, so no claim is made that all were client connections. No
sampled lock episodes does not establish zero lock waits.

Twelve pure reader/selector cases also pass with the new adjacent
receipt. This is not another executed process rollback. Development
reader `5cf7aead` can parse the recovery state, but its old run-detail
redactor can expose receipt IDs/outcome to an authorized run reader. The
first production release containing recovery readers, complete
attachment-identity handling and both private-field redactions is the
rollback floor. The implicit-home fix prevents new recovery-time
fingerprint drift; it does not rewrite previously stored fingerprints
from failed candidates. The development probe is not a published
supported rollback target.

Latest actual `0862062` Runner tests independently passed 8/512/8,192
text chunks with zero recovery SQL, transactions and changed rows, plus
zero settled-idle SQL. All three observed seven setup/control
transactions and twelve changed rows. The 8,192-chunk case separately
recorded 31 legitimate lease-renewal statements, with no lost lease.
These are component SQL observations, not a production CPU/WAL claim.
The new adoption and identity branches affect recovery preparation only.
The `64c0b746`, `7a203274` and exact `39a4343` CI independently passed
all three stream sizes with the same zero-SQL/idle result; each latest
8,192-chunk case recorded 36 separate renewal statements. Exact
`39a4343` Runner 2/2 passed 133 files / 2,317 tests plus two skips; its
separate native group passed 150 tests plus eight skips.

The first API fixture revision omitted the mandatory final screenshot;
this was caught before paid launch and allocated no provider/model work.
The correction captures the actual retained Chromium page with an
explicit unqualified-browser label, without changing the standard report
validator.

Automatic approval review rejected exporting raw private API/workflow
snapshots because of sensitive payloads and insufficient
destination-specific authorization. Sanitized reports and
bound/hash-only receipts are retained; raw snapshots were not copied
through another channel. This does not change the failed grade.

Repair characterization also preserves its failed attempts. An
unconditional staging relocation broke three existing same-scope
scripted cases; the final implementation defers staging only for an
actual superseded warm scope, and all nine order/race cases pass. One
baseline transform overlapped an edit and is explicitly invalid; the
actual immutable `39a4343` loader then produced the three genuine REDs.
The independent task-directory hypothesis produced a RED but was
excluded by the live shared-workspace evidence; no directory policy
change was landed. A shared-workspace fixture authorization omission was
corrected separately from the four-skill semantic RED.

Setup failures are retained separately from semantic outcomes. These
include an old host port after the owned Postgres fixture restarted and
a sandbox-denied TSX IPC pipe. The supported external-Postgres run
passed, and the final exact recursive typecheck passes with normal
process permissions. Seven stale declaration errors after the master
merge cleared after compiling the actual merged SDK/Runner TypeScript
sources. No declarations were edited by hand.

<summary>Earlier qualification measurements and failed attempts
(historical, before this repair)</summary>

**Historical blocked gate (before the repair below).** Final native
implementation is `abed921e12d543b62f57a56435419c0dafb0bc33`; current
branch head is `af9e2d157dcc349e55374ad186c9be2d6cb96bf9`. The two later
commits change only qualification fixtures, their matcher and
documentation; `server/` and `packages/` are unchanged. It includes
master through `fd008979f5794fda3d5f54151d36acd31d0de140`.

The live Daytona measurement proves five-minute active recovery,
once-only completion and accounting, but **fails retained-session
identity after the second replacement**. The saved checkpoint and
recovery metadata exist. The task-session pointer remains empty, and
ordinary admission creates new native/provider sessions. The exact
skipped publication boundary remains unproven. A useful saved-file
result alone does not satisfy retained-session continuation. This
application-path gap blocks merge independently of CI.

A separate new-master CI failure is owned by the storage workstream (fix
in #18357). No storage guard, session-identity oracle, lease/grace limit
or provider result was relaxed.

| Gate | Observed result and exact scope |
| --- | --- |
| Distinct source recovery and compatible rollback | PASS at A
`5cf7aead09a2d9c7e2f2929d761f535ef3c1d798` → B
`5ea45f8d17e33c9a62bd79982dcf0375b07733d0` → fresh B → A. Four
controller processes, natural 60-second lease expiry, absent native
projections before replacements, three succeeded/committed unique
results, one provider thread, unchanged Runner identity, and strict idle
cleanup. 177.782 seconds. |
| Immutable installed native component | PASS at installed A
`5cf7aead09a2d9c7e2f2929d761f535ef3c1d798` → installed B
`eaef0d56552c087aaa4fa68a8655282ffbd12667` → fresh B → A. Each
controller imports its contained compiled server and DB. Three unique
committed results, stable Runner/thread, no extra provider restart on
same-contract rollback, strict cleanup. 106.672 seconds. This is
compiled component proof, separate from full CLI-native application
acceptance. |
| Normal public CLI startup | PASS for B
`eaef0d56552c087aaa4fa68a8655282ffbd12667`, Node 24.22.1, darwin-arm64:
fresh external DB, 415 migrations, health ready, root HTML 200, company
POST 201 plus GET readback. The installed tree remained unchanged after
execution. |
| Five-minute component outage | Actual controller absence 300,168 ms.
Natural generation-2 claim at 407.196 seconds after crash, same provider
attempt and Runner, original run succeeded/committed. The larger
540-second case timed out before its retained follow-ups, so it is an
active-adoption pass, not a complete four-controller pass. The complete
short source/installed cases above independently cover follow-up and
rollback. |
| Drain/resume review regression | Fixed in
`226f03e736d1ee99fea1762ab32ea3a8a9241c20`. Five facade-level cases
pass: overdue normal/restart waits, future timer cancellation, another
facade resuming the original owner, and transient retry. Against exact
prior scheduler `5ea45f8d17e33c9a62bd79982dcf0375b07733d0`, four fail
and one passes. The later head changes documentation only. |
| Final corrected-fixture Daytona | **PARTIAL: active recovery PASS;
retained identity FAIL**, exact live source `0b6afc499f`. A was
SIGKILLed and native cache discarded; actual offline hold 300,000.375
ms. B was ready at 308,326.961 ms, naturally claimed generation 2 at
312,059 ms, authenticated at 315,996 ms and resumed processing at
316,519 ms, within the original 420-second boundary. The same run,
Runner PID/start, session, lease and event prefix survived; one turn
submitted. Original execution succeeded and settled accounting. After
completion, B was killed and its native cache discarded; C was ready in
9,077.779 ms. C executed the saved project and returned correct
`queue_r`, with all four runs succeeded/accounted. However, native and
true provider-session identities changed: the unchanged retained oracle
fails. No whole-workflow pass is claimed. |
| Prior matched-producer Daytona | FAILED at exact `abed921e12`. The
matching current-source Runner passed normal admission, completed the
first task and settled its accounting. During the active revision, A was
SIGKILLed and its native cache discarded. Actual offline hold was
300,000.727 ms; B was ready at 308,304 ms and naturally claimed
generation 2 at 309,651 ms. At about 318 seconds, the remote process
check reported `process_not_running` for the original admitted Runner.
No authenticated after-receipt or retained follow-up passed. The current
failure is preserved; no automatic retry, lease/grace relaxation, debt
edit or provider replay is used. Bounded forensic read found preserved
exact-bound state with no recoverable failure, a transport-reset
diagnostic and no terminal delivery; this supports external process loss
without proving the exact cause. The sandbox had a five-minute auto-stop
policy, conflicting with the required surviving-sandbox assumption.
Owned cleanup precedes the separate corrected-fixture case. |

**Live retained-session boundary.** Prior completed run `3806…` and C
follow-up `8adf1df3-6744-40bf-b35d-100451f29d9f` both have database
session snapshots and `nativeControllerRecovery`. Their tool
fingerprint, provider configuration, workspace descriptor,
runtime-context digest, driver and work mode match. There is no recorded
force-fresh/workspace-selection change, and this is an ordinary task
rather than a conversation-generation reset. The same issue/agent
task-session row has `session_params_json: null` and `last_run_id: null`
from baseline time. Both native normalized UUID and actual provider
session/thread hashes differ after C. Full application admission
therefore did not select the retained source. No fallback to file
execution or relaxed identity comparison is accepted as proof of
continuity.

**Independent cleanup completed.** Full current-account provider
inventory confirms no resources owned by either final fixture, with
exact-ID absence checks. Owned controllers and campaign Postgres are
stopped/removed. EC2 `i-01551c09af098dde5` is terminated, its
delete-on-termination root volume returned `InvalidVolume.NotFound` at
22:14:08 UTC, and the temporary SSH key/agent were removed. The
canonical failed report and immutable oracle input are retained. Closed
qualification receipt SHA-256:
`b4b5fefce287ebfdbf2cc2238efaad62d8ad485aed0e9c0628ae95dbc18a8575`.

**Original measurement and grader repair remain separate.** The C reply
contains the requested marker followed by a newline and the correct
output. The old workflow waited for one literal space, so its normal
receipt collection stalled; that original attempt was closed and its
canonical `cleanup_failure`/interrupted result is preserved. Commit
`af9e2d157d` repairs only this reply predicate, with 144 focused cases,
E2E typecheck, discovery and diff checks passing. Ordinary string
matching stays literal. The corrected predicate accepts the saved reply,
but the unchanged retained-identity oracle still fails. Pure
active-recovery grading of the captured measurement passes 7/7; this is
not a rewritten passing campaign.

The sandbox idle-window conflict was corrected only for this explicit
fixture (15 minutes). Actual baseline and later sandbox metadata confirm
that policy; the original active box was disposed before a post-gate
policy read, so its 15-minute setting is established by the normal
create/environment configuration rather than an after-read of that box.
Production native lifecycle and the 60/300/420-second constants remain
unchanged.

The development compatibility reader A is a genuine backport commit
based on `59ff89a18fe1312b5f0bb908439bbdb1237b0252`, with the required
idle-goal reader fixes. It is not a previously published release. Its
older executor differs from B. The rollback floor must include this
reader capability. The source component cases admitted the Linux ARM64
Runner packaged at `59ff89a18fe1312b5f0bb908439bbdb1237b0252`; the
installed component case admitted the `5cf7aead` package. Their Runner
bytes are identical: SHA-256
`b1f04caa1ce04e720dec7eb62ede170eb3621948c0849b8f305ea5c5116bced8`. Each
admitted artifact remained unchanged throughout its case.

[Final public package
build](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41121460635)
and [reader-floor
build](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41122170506)
both passed all four daemon builds, package assembly and both Darwin
clean consumers. Both Linux ARM consumers failed before provider work
with the same existing local Codex permission-profile error: bubblewrap
attempts `activity.fifo/.git` and reports “Not a directory.” This
matched baseline failure remains open; it is not a native remote
continuity pass. Full post-run tree and build-stamp revalidation also
passed after the compiled native case. The installed component trees are
A `c29114c1bf71c5af00f761aeb9e3d84ed3d3075b9f5600dee3ef2543eb2b6ec5` and
B `eda575505373a3bdc630fa4919862b359791fe3a7ef637961a25b73b38efe4b0`.

**Controlled PostgreSQL qualification passed.**
Baseline/candidate/candidate/baseline workloads used 300 controllers,
10,000 historical tasks, real snapshot/encrypted PRP writes and
unchanged pools. PostgreSQL and client were each limited to two CPUs and
1536 MiB on an isolated eight-vCPU Linux host.

| Workload | PG CPU per operation | WAL per operation | Database request
p99 |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Steady | +1.18% | +1.81% | +1.91% |
| Aligned burst | +3.40% | +2.56% | +3.81% |
| Two logical servers | +3.11% | +2.56% | +9.68% |

All arms passed absolute/correctness gates with unchanged control
transaction counts, no dropped operations and no owner loss. Overlap p99
has little margin below the relative threshold. It uses two clients in
one Node process, not two HTTP servers. [Closed measurements and
limitations](doc/plans/2026-10-30-native-controller-qualification-evidence.json)
and exact-source reproduction patches are retained. [Earlier
contended-host
failures](doc/plans/2026-10-30-native-controller-load-evidence.json)
remain unchanged. The production DB-claim probe claimed 300 owners in
2.84 seconds and restored/committed controls and snapshots in 8.74
seconds, with zero owner loss or settled-idle SQL; its provider
references were synthetic. The measured checkpoint/snapshot/renewal
paths retain the same persistence behavior after integration; later
accounting and business writes have separate owners.

Actual Runner stream tests at `da8c7f6e1837ddd896dfe83a7524812fee813487`
passed 8/512/8,192 chunks: zero recovery SQL, transactions and changed
rows during text intervals; zero settled-idle SQL. Each retained seven
control transactions and twelve changed records. Existing renewal SQL
was measured separately. The guard/scheduler fixes add no stream path,
pool or recurring idle scan.

The live fixture used current-source producer SHA-256
`f0000c90cb83880191479da639201e659aa6ce0fc7d67c859faa172ec977849e`, a
normal locked exact-head build with pinned Rust 1.97.1 in Bookworm.
Actual network-isolated, read-only ABI execution passed (GLIBC
requirement 2.34 against runtime 2.36). The immutable base image
remained
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:36069788f53c51f228764fa36180575443dfb5d1f84a342d7c0daceb28dc61cc`,
source `a0ef3ce7`. This was an unpublished development producer,
explicitly distinct from the base image and admitted before the fresh
fixture began. The earlier host build failed ABI preflight before
admission. The preceding old-producer fixture completed its initial task
but lacked the usage-basis marker required by current master; it
remained pending/unpriced and correctly paused. It was independently
cleaned without debt or budget changes. Two preceding local Linux setup
attempts OOM-killed before provider allocation, and their cleanup
passed. These attempts remain separate from the final recovery failure.

**Failures retained and resolved separately.** The earlier `98f05fc`
probe rejected a valid settled PRP v2 goal suffix; `eaef0d5` fixed that
reader and the fresh follow-up passed. Later component cleanup failures
were traced by a scoped exception observer to the fixture adapter
rejecting directory downloads. A bounded owned-directory transfer with
exact-byte/mode preflight corrected the fixture; source and installed
strict-cleanup cases then passed. No production guard was relaxed. The
initial local integrated control-port run hit its 30-second embedded
Postgres startup hook before executing 59 cases; 18 other focused cases
passed. A bounded rerun used a fresh owned external Postgres fixture,
applied normal migrations before Vitest, and passed all 59 cases with
the original timeouts unchanged. Its container and data were removed;
the failed attempt remains retained.

The additional opt-in full Product E2E Vitest run is not green: 5,313
passed, seven failed and three skipped. An actual `abed921e12` archive
with the same dependencies, Node and IPC permissions reproduces all
seven failures with the same reasons. Five are unchanged
workflow-policy/profile-pin assertions, including Pi profile version 37
versus the test pin 35. Two database suites failed during embedded
Postgres startup before their assertions; semaphore exhaustion is
confirmed in the observer log. The observer passes its supported
external-Postgres rerun with original timeouts and source unchanged. The
controller-database client-kill/postmaster assertions remain unexecuted
after `initdb` bootstrap failure; no external override is supported. The
unit launcher stopped before its Node-test phase, which was then run
independently and passed 181/181. The original failed full run is
preserved. These results remain distinct from the passing focused checks
and normal repository CI. The first local Product E2E typecheck also
encountered stale compiled Runner declarations; a genuine package-local
TypeScript compile refreshed them and the unchanged check passed,
without a dependency install or producer rebuild.

Earlier [Daytona campaign
41108162900](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41108162900)
failed at sandbox creation before any agent, with the underlying
provider error unavailable. Its [sanitized
report](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-41108162900-2/index.html)
remains a `cleanup_failure`. Both old creation names are absent in the
current authenticated account, but the old CI account identity was not
retained, so account equivalence is unproven. The subsequent exact
`eaef0d5` source Product E2E attempt passed image/agent setup and the
initial project, then held the controller offline for 300,003.7 ms. Its
Mac supervisor failed owned-process inspection before B readiness; no
adoption passed. Full current-company lease/label checks, provider
deletion, exact-ID 404s and complete inventory confirmed cleanup of that
attempt. Its local server and owned Postgres stopped. The prior AWS
campaigns and database qualification VM were terminated with root
volumes removed.

The old admitted test Runner lacks the newer usage-basis marker
introduced on master. The integrated component B turns retained
unpriced, incomplete accounting obligations with `costAccountingPending:
true` and no settled charge. The compatibility-reader A turn used its
legacy receipt interpretation but likewise retained pending accounting
and no settlement timestamp. This proves obligation preservation, not a
whole-run accounting migration. Runner/receiver release ordering remains
governed by the usage owner's contract.

At native implementation `abed921e12d543b62f57a56435419c0dafb0bc33`,
Greptile was 5/5 with zero unresolved threads and CI completed with 54
successful checks and five expected skips. At `0b6afc499f`, Greptile
again passed 5/5 with zero unresolved threads, but CI ended with 51
successful checks, five skips and three failures. Server 9/12 fails a
deterministic managed-skills maintenance assertion newly inherited from
master `198218bf` in merge `c80e00ad`; that test is absent from the PR
head, and the storage owner has the explicit-StorageService fix in
#18357. Runner 2/2 passed 2,283 unit cases but its runner received a
shutdown signal during the long stream probe; its cancelled step and
aggregate failure are preserved. No blind retry was used. Current
`af9e2d157d` checks are pending; the matcher-only change passes 144
focused cases and Product E2E typecheck. Earlier scheduling-sensitive CI
failures and the interrupted unsharded local test run remain recorded in
the dated plan. CI runs the repository's normal test partitions. Final
verification does not claim Railway rollout, uninterrupted HTTP service
or whole-webserver filesystem loss.

</details>

## Risks

- The task-pointer repair passes its assembled regression. The first
live repair exposed pre-acceptance ordering and the fresh review exposed
a replay lock-order issue; both are fixed and pass real Postgres tests
at `0862062`. The following live attempt exposed the
verified-running-versus-suspended preparation gate. Its narrow fix
passes 91 focused cases at `64c0b746`. The next live case exposed
synthetic attachment IDs; `7a203274` fixes that field selection and
passes real Runner authentication. The subsequent queued continuation
exposed strict retirement maintenance and a false default-home change;
`39a4343` fixes both with real Runner/Postgres and fingerprint
regressions. The `39a4343` live continuation failed again despite green
CI. `283e05ffaa` repairs the actual native-observed admission ordering
and reproduces/fixes the JSONB skill-order fingerprint drift. Both pass
targeted real-Postgres regressions and the live active plus queued
paths. The definition 6 post-C browser navigation timed out before
admission. Explicit definition 7 now verifies native continuation
through the ordinary comment API; its strict post-C native gate failed
after a real dispatch and remains historical failed evidence. The final
fc68584 repair now passes its fresh strict 49-check Linux/Daytona
campaign; the prior failed grades remain unchanged. Browser reconnection
is handed to its own workstream with the original failed evidence. No
prior failed campaign is reclassified as passing.
- Incorrect checkpoint/source binding or stale ownership could duplicate
external work. Missing evidence remains a hold; existing receipt and
finalization owners keep uncertain effects unresolved.
- Recovery must retain maintenance writes after accepted results without
allowing a stale business turn to write. Real lock-wait and generation
tests cover that boundary.
- The current two-connection paired burst profile fails its absolute
drain gate in both baseline and candidate, despite passing relative load
gates and all correctness checks. A causal capacity diagnostic selected
three slots; the final controlled cap-three profiles pass unchanged
thresholds. Full application replacement and two-server overlap capacity
remain separate. There is no new streaming writer, pool or recurring
idle scan.
- The remote sandbox and Runner must survive the recovery window.
Provider auto-stop is a separate lifetime bound from reconnect grace;
the explicit qualification fixture uses a longer idle window.
- Workspace and provider backup availability remain external
dependencies. This PR does not certify whole-webserver filesystem loss,
uninterrupted HTTP service or a Railway rollout.

## Model Used

Implementation and initial verification used OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex;
the initial hosted snapshot was not exposed. The follow-up qualification
used three OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` workers coordinated through Codex, with
repository tools, code execution, CI and scoped test infrastructure.
Context-window size is not exposed.

DottaandPaperclip 0e15c92073 feat(skills): make managed content independent of web-server disk (#18334)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use installed skills and exact version pins during execution.
> - Managed skills still depended on mutable directories on the web
server.
> - A replacement server could lose acknowledged edits or remove an
unassigned skill whose directory was absent.
> - This pull request makes immutable versions the authority for managed
content and installed repository reads.
> - The server can rebuild delivery files from durable content after
replacement.
> - This establishes skills readiness for ephemeral web servers. General
server draining and workspace recovery remain separate work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Skills services, shared contracts, database receipts, Skill Studio, and
runtime delivery.

**Problem or motivation**

A fresh web server must discover, read, edit, and deliver protected
installed skills using the same database, object storage, secrets, and
supported application artifacts. It must not need its predecessor's
files or process memory.

**Proposed solution**

Use `managed` ownership with a null source locator. Read installed
content by immutable version. Prepare packages before a short
publication transaction. Persist execution selections before
materialization. Recover exact pinned runtime assets and reject deletion
while active or recovering pins exist.

**Alternatives considered**

Reconstructing a mutable installed directory preserves the old
source-of-truth ambiguity. Permanent dual writes create two competing
authorities. This change uses one managed model after a bounded legacy
conversion.

**Roadmap alignment**

This improves the existing Skills Manager, Studio, version history, and
Cloud execution capabilities. The maintainer supplied the implementation
contract. This does not add a separate skills product or deploy fleet
changes.

Related work: #18082 supplies immutable package storage. #17273
addresses edits outside the API for linked local skills; this PR keeps
that source category separate. #2648 is a closed earlier
ephemeral-filesystem proposal.

## What Changed

- Add managed ownership and focused content publication and execution
materialization modules. Keep the archive format and package storage
tables.
- Publish managed create, save, delete, fork, rename, restore, and
catalog content with version checks. Add durable create receipts.
Preserve file-save receipt responses.
- Return file version identities. Keep Studio drafts after a conflict
and provide an explicit reload action. A delayed reload cannot overwrite
newer typing or navigation.
- Persist exact runtime selections, including empty selections. Rebuild
pinned assets and verify their admitted digests on a replacement server.
- Preserve source access on forks and disconnected copies. Keep the
existing workspace policy category for managed skills.
- Add bounded conversion, eligibility, and independent verification
phases. Load persisted Cloud configuration in the standalone CLI without
seeding or changing it. Reject partial current versions against
installed inventories; recover only complete saved content or the exact
source. Document storage migration blockers and the compatible rollback
floor.
- Add separate-process PostgreSQL/S3 qualification and update domain,
retention, policy, and UI regressions.
- Pass the plugin worker manager into Studio execution, admit restricted
`skill_test` mode through native Runner contracts, and preserve admitted
scope across native and REST tools. Native tests cannot create ordinary
tasks, browse company data, or use external tools.
- Select the exact durable Studio revision even when unassigned or Beta
skills is off. Persist Studio output and audit atomically with native
task completion, preserving the result on replay.

## Verification

- Final revision `13e8af480b88ba6fea5737bac4bd81104d604792` passed full
CI: all 49 workflow jobs completed successfully ([run
41127396098](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41127396098)).
This includes typecheck, test suites, Runner checks, browser checks and
build. Greptile review 15 is 5/5 on that same revision, with zero
unresolved threads. The PR is ready for review.
- Local workspace typecheck and build passed after integrating master.
Focused checks passed: 33 execution/completion cases, 52 Runner HTTP
cases, 16 managed-content cases, 17 Studio cases, the new real-process
CLI regression, map checks and UI token gates. The CLI regression proves
inspection does not seed missing Cloud configuration. Server typecheck
passed after that fix.
- The independent-process PostgreSQL/S3 matrix passed through normal
HTTP skill routes. It covers A → B → C replacement, lost commit
responses, upload crashes, concurrent saves, binary contents and
executable delivery. Metadata listing and warm selected delivery retain
zero object downloads. Local timing measurements are recorded; they do
not establish hosted latency.
- Hosted A → B → C passed on the owned disposable test tenant with
external Postgres, S3 and a real remote Paperclip Computer. Predecessor
temporary homes were absent. C read and executed B's acknowledged
managed save. New runs used repository v1 while v2 was installed. Hashes
matched an independently checked exact upstream commit.
- Compatible image rollback to `6518b323` passed. Studio retained the
unassigned fork's C save. A fresh remote run executed the newer managed
content and historical repository pin. The actual shell event confirmed
expected hashes, stdout, exit 0 and mode 0555.
- Runtime candidate `9200e3fcb4` deployed successfully ([Cloud run
41124147876](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/actions/runs/41124147876)).
The final Studio test delivered only the unassigned fork's exact v3,
executed its script and persisted a successful output snapshot.
Independent command-event inspection confirmed all three hashes, stdout,
exit 0 and mode 0555. All 14 installations were version-backed.
Independent verification checked all 25 versions: 23 remote objects, two
bundled database snapshots, zero blockers.
- The deployed image is `9200e3fcb4`. Later master integration, the
client-only delayed-reload draft guard and the CLI bootstrap have
separate automated proof. The CLI bootstrap was also exercised against
the tenant's stored configuration and storage through the same read-only
services. This PR does not claim that the deployed image is the final PR
revision.
- Live Studio checks exposed worker wiring, admission, access scope,
exact selection and completion-publication gaps. They are fixed. Failed
attempts remain in the evidence. The full local suite exceeded 80
minutes under host contention and was stopped. Later combined/isolated
local attempts also timed out; they are not counted as passes. Full CI
covers the integrated suites. Earlier CI found an obsolete restart-scope
fixture, which was corrected and passed all 52 HTTP cases.
- Reproduction and migration:
[`doc/skill-ephemeral-web-servers.md`](doc/skill-ephemeral-web-servers.md).
Source revisions, deployments, versions, run IDs, hashes and failure
history:
[`doc/plans/2026-10-30-ephemeral-web-skills.md`](doc/plans/2026-10-30-ephemeral-web-skills.md).

## Risks

- Legacy conversion requires stopped admission and retired
filesystem-authoritative writers. Pre-conversion binaries are not
supported rollback targets afterward.
- Cloud readiness requires remote object storage. Local provider
receipts and provider mismatches remain blockers until objects are
copied and verified.
- Linked local sources retain filesystem semantics and are outside the
cloud guarantee.
- Cold reads still fetch the existing archive format. Warm runtime
preparation retains the verified-cache path.
- Bundled reconciliation preserves an installed head. Existing release
snapshots remain selectable. An older server must not replace a newer
head with its shipped files.
- No production volumes, fleet defaults, or general deployment
coordination change in this PR.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser use. The exact backend model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session. No subagents were
used.

DottaandPaperclip e54354d9d3 fix(ai-connections): save quota credentials without recovery files (#18352)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Managed AI connections keep the selected account in the secret
store.
> - Server quota refresh can receive a replacement token before its
database save commits.
> - That path currently writes an encrypted recovery file on the web
server.
> - Cloud web replacement should not need that file to use a saved
account.
> - This pull request saves the replacement directly and retries the
same value in memory.
> - The benefit is a smaller cloud storage contract with an explicit
sign-in recovery limit.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Server-owned OpenAI quota refresh and credential persistence during web
replacement.

**Current behavior**

Quota refresh checks local encrypted recovery storage before token
exchange. It writes the replacement to that storage before the secret
transaction commits. A replacement web receiver can therefore need the
old web volume.

**Proposed behavior**

Required database reads and locks must succeed before exchange. The same
logical refresh saves its returned replacement directly, with at most
three save attempts. It checks the current secret after an uncertain
commit response. A process that loses the unsaved replacement can
require sign-in again.

**Reason and benefit**

Postgres remains authoritative. This removes new quota recovery files
without adding another credential vault. Existing files remain readable
for cutover. Local-only Google retirement keeps its existing behavior.
Remote Google subscription sessions remain unsupported.

Related public work: Refs #14056 for managed Codex credential handover.
Searched open and closed credential-refresh pull requests; this change
does not duplicate their provider login work.

## What Changed

- Keep the exchanged replacement and its source generation in the
current refresh operation. Save retries do not repeat OAuth exchange.
- Reconcile a lost commit response from the saved credential. Grant
changes, secret versions, session epochs, selectors, and revocation
prevent a stale save.
- Stop creating or preparing quota recovery files. Preserve existing
record settlement and local Google compatibility.
- Document the v1 sign-in limit and existing Runner
persistence-before-completion contract.
- Add PostgreSQL and controlled-provider regressions for save rollback,
lost replies, revoked or changed authority, receiver process loss, and
pending Runner credential handover.

## Verification

- [Complete current-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41099132607)
passed at `e4ed6551a707c814ddb2395a7358106b1e04857a`: 53 successful
checks and two intended skips. This includes full typecheck, tests,
build, and E2E gates.

- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed at
`1ebe75984be9bf19d518728d4ff440a2d7f3dbce`. Later branch changes only
repair tests. Rebase adds an unrelated master UI performance fix; the
credential and Runner handover source did not change.
- Focused credential tests passed: 2 files, 160 tests (145.62s).
Command: `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/ai-connections.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/plugin-task-credential-writeback.test.ts
--maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism`.
- `pnpm test:run` was deliberately interrupted after 17m41s in its first
general-server chat integration phase, before any suite result. The
controller exited 130 and its wrapper exited 1. This is an incomplete
local run, not a full local pass or an observed test failure. The
coordinator stopped duplicate long local work; the complete current-head
CI suite subsequently passed. All owned test and PostgreSQL processes
were confirmed stopped.
- Database tests use real PostgreSQL 18.6 with POSIX semaphores through
a test-only loader. Provider requests use controlled fixtures; no
production OAuth mutation was made.
- Greptile reviewed current head
`e4ed6551a707c814ddb2395a7358106b1e04857a` at 5/5 with zero comments.
- The captured focused-test logs contain none of the replacement-token
fixture values.
- The receiver-loss test kills a separate Node process after one HTTP
token exchange while PostgreSQL blocks its secret insert. A new receiver
then uses the existing sign-in flow.
- The Runner case rejects a real deferred secret commit. Provider
completion remains uncalled until a new receiver commits the retained
credential.
- Initial setup failed because this host exhausted System V semaphore
resources. Another setup attempt lacked built SDK entries. Both were
setup failures, not passes. After setup repair, the first real run
passed 159/160 tests; the remaining test asserted the retired
directory-fsync contract. The replacement test forbids recovery writes
and requires one committed exchange without a file.

## Risks

- If all three saves fail and the producing server process exits, the
unsaved replacement is lost. The next failed use can require sign-in
again. This is the accepted v1 limit.
- Existing unresolved recovery files still require inventory and
settlement before their old volume is removed. This PR does not perform
deployment or delete those records.
- Local Google subscription retirement still needs its existing local
recovery ownership. It is outside the supported remote cloud scope.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol`, with reasoning, repository tools, code execution,
and controlled integration tests. The context window size was not
supplied.

DottaandPaperclip dbff3747b8 feat(server): persist run logs and provider traces in S3 (#18327)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators use run logs and restricted provider traces to inspect
agent work.
> - Local log and trace files depend on the web server's persistent
volume.
> - That dependency prevents overlapping volume-backed Railway
deployments.
> - This PR reuses the instance S3 store for batched log and trace
payloads with conditional publication.
> - Existing Postgres rows retain their contracts; native export
recovery reuses events already committed before Runner acknowledgement.
> - S3-configured servers automatically copy and verify retained history
before a later deployment cutover.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server run logs, restricted provider traces, storage providers, and
migration tooling.

**Problem or motivation**

Replacing the web server and its disk must preserve committed log output
and retained traces. The current S3 mirror can repeatedly upload a
growing file. Moving those payloads into Postgres would add database
writes, WAL, replication, and backup work.

**Proposed solution**

Reuse the existing instance storage configuration, S3-compatible
provider and credential chain. Store new run logs under run-logs/ and
opted-in raw traces under provider-traces/, below the existing prefix.
Cloud keeps its existing bucket and bucket-scoped credentials per stack.
Add no new configuration switches. Store immutable payload segments and
bounded binary range indexes directly in S3. Publish each batch with an
ETag-conditional head. Keep existing database ownership and lifecycle
records. Recover canonical native exports from their existing validated
control event source, checkpointing export progress in S3. Add no new
payload writes to Postgres. Preserve local defaults and migrate settled
history with verified byte counts and digests.

**Alternatives considered**

Postgres payload chunks add control-plane load. Repeated whole-file
mirrors amplify transfer work. The first index prototype left superseded
index nodes; the final binary index keeps all normally published nodes
reachable.

**Roadmap alignment**

This is a storage prerequisite for replacing the main web/API server. It
does not enable deployment overlap, detach a volume, or change native
Runner protocol acknowledgements. The maintainer approved this
implementation scope. ROADMAP.md has no duplicate implementation item.

Related PR: #16770 improves the existing in-flight mirror. This PR
preserves that legacy backend and uses the existing instance S3 profile
for new journals.

## What Changed

- Automatically select S3 segments for new logs and opted-in traces when
instance file storage uses S3. Reuse bucket, endpoint, region, prefix,
path style and credentials. Remove separate backend switches. Keep
local-disk instances local.
- Share the existing storage configuration resolver with product files.
Preserve config-file settings, environment precedence and the existing
root prefix. Keep pre-existing run-log mirror settings for legacy
history.
- Add bounded buffering, conditional ownership fencing, immutable range
reads, stable byte offsets, and completion hashing.
- Dispatch all existing log consumers through the recorded backend.
Coalesce output progress writes and publish live log messages after
storage receipts.
- Recover interrupted canonical native exports from their existing
durable source. Exclude separate credential, cleanup, and reprojection
records. Replay missing callback ranges and deduplicate late delivery.
Repair settled archives after controller lease expiry. Bound shared
repair work and stop it when all readers cancel. Serve the published
prefix when best-effort repair fails.
- Add encrypted optional trace channels, replacement reads, durable
deletion tombstones, and deadline-driven local/external expiry cleanup
independently of heartbeat scheduling. Stream historical source and
remote verification. Propagate worker cancellation through trace open,
conditional-write probing, upload, restore and reads. Fence deletion
even before the first object head exists; abort and drain owned
captures.
- Retry transient storage errors, distinguish 409 from failed
preconditions, and backpressure bounded log admission. Track interrupted
trace imports explicitly so ordinary local deletion stays independent of
S3.
- Automatically migrate retained history through the existing delivery
coordinator. Process one log and one trace per batch. Retry unresolved
history with backoff and stop scans after completion. Keep the
inventory/import command as optional diagnosis and repair. Verify source
and remote bytes before switching references. Verify finalized native
size and digest before setting its export cursor. Require ordered source
coverage when completeness metadata is missing. Preserve original trace
expiry. Block active, missing, corrupt, and unproven sources.
- Preserve identity and run-secret redaction in live and recovered
native logs. Register runtime log redaction secrets once through the
existing encrypted registry. Keep agent private keys in their existing
owner.
- Add storage, migration, retention, UTF-8, and route-privacy coverage,
plus operating documentation and qualification tooling.
- Add no schema, payload table, per-record SQL, production dependency,
or lockfile change.

## Verification

- Final fixes at `b3a44c898e` passed all 116 selected startup,
retention, attribution and cancellation controls. The disabled-scheduler
cleanup and concurrent-repair defects reproduced red before the fixes. A
timed-out repair still prevents later storage reads.
- The merged source passed 124 storage and real-Postgres Cloud
configuration tests. These include automatic history migration, existing
environment/file vault keys, source-directory removal, five real-SDK
stalled-request cancellation cases, shared capability-probe cancellation
and multi-chunk trace ordering. Saved Cloud S3 settings work after the
legacy config file is gone.
- Workspace typecheck and full build passed at the merged parent
`19f702d780`. Server typecheck and build passed again at `b3a44c898e`.
- Actual app acceptance: finish a process-agent run through the normal
API, stage its retained local-file input, then restart. Automatic
migration reports one migrated item and zero blockers. Remove the
original web home and restart at `b3a44c898e` with an empty home, the
existing S3 profile and the existing vault key file. The normal log API
preserves all five producer lines and exactly 788 bytes, with SHA-256
`74d9ae469da28bfe89b9b50a0e132aec24fe9e6d686496ed5e4ffa6167151036`. No
log-specific storage settings are present.
- Actual expiry acceptance: with heartbeat scheduling disabled, a trace
remains unexpired after startup and later reaches its fixture deadline.
The worker marks the row deleted and tombstones both S3 channel heads.
The retained run log stays byte-identical. The process fixture emits no
provider protocol frames, so nonempty encrypted payloads are qualified
separately through the real SDK round trips.
- Isolation tests use identical run identities in two stack buckets.
Cleanup in one existing prefix leaves another prefix, another company
and product files intact. Read-only Cloud source inspection confirms a
bucket and bucket-scoped credentials per stack. Four existing Cloud
storage environment-contract tests passed. No Cloud provisioning changed
and no new live vendor permission probe was performed.
- Earlier qualification passed 1,014 affected storage/native tests and
27 privacy-route tests with isolated Docker Postgres. An abrupt process
test commits 1,000 records, receives receipts, dies by SIGKILL and loses
its directory; another process reads every byte and continues. The real
Rust Runner experiment acknowledges 32 records while the export cursor
is zero, then continues the same Runner PID after controller loss. All
64 records export once with exactly 64 existing control rows. Repeated
snapshot/Stop commands completed in 162/81 ms.
- Emulator workload: 1,000 burst records used two batch PUTs. Eight
steady streams produced 240 records with 104 conditional PUTs and 72
GETs over 6.9 seconds. These are synthetic operation counts, not fleet
sizing or provider prices.
- Failure evidence is retained. Compact native events over 64 KiB,
missing file-key support, disabled-scheduler retention and repair
failure handling all reproduced before their fixes. Fixture repairs
addressed cold module setup, localhost/IPC permissions, the S3
bucket-name limit and a mode-0700 crash-test directory. Full local `pnpm
test:run` was stopped after host PostgreSQL semaphore exhaustion;
affected suites used isolated Docker databases instead. Native package
library symlinks were restored with the package's standard hydration
helper.
- The `19f702d780` browser session-recovery case timed out while saving
a task title. All eight browser shards passed on `b3a44c898e`, including
that case, with no UI behavior or assertion change. Fresh-head CI passed
at `b3a44c898e`: 55 successful checks, three skipped checks and one
neutral check. The branch is conflict-free.
- Map and module-boundary checks passed. Current-head Greptile is 5/5
with zero unresolved review threads.

Reproduce the opt-in storage suites with
`PAPERCLIP_LOG_TEST_S3_ENDPOINT` and a dedicated
`PAPERCLIP_RUN_EVIDENCE_MIGRATION_DATABASE_URL` ending in `_test`. See
`doc/run-evidence-storage.md` for operating limits, automatic migration,
optional diagnostics and rollout qualification.

## Risks

- Keep the existing per-stack bucket, prefix and vault key stable across
replacements. Relocating that storage is a separate whole-instance
operation.
- This release automatically changes new log storage for existing
S3-configured instances. Local-disk instances remain local. Canonical
native source replay is qualified with a deterministic real Runner;
actual remote execution and production-provider qualification remain
rollout gates. Generic server-only diagnostics and optional raw trace
tails without a surviving source can be incomplete after a crash. This
does not establish full zero-downtime deployment.
- Before deploying this release, qualify the actual S3 provider. It must
enforce conditional writes and pass read, version, deletion, workload,
and latency qualification. A capability probe rejects providers which
ignore preconditions. Moto is emulator evidence only.
- Dirty output is bounded and unconfirmed until S3 publication. Storage
failure leaves persistence incomplete while task results and usage can
settle.
- Trace expiry is not yet represented by Cloud's external wake contract.
Outstanding trace deadlines conservatively block sleep.
- Automatic history copying requires the original source volume. Keep it
until all retained resources pass verified import and clean-filesystem
reads. Stop old binaries from creating new local-file runs. Missing or
corrupt history remains blocked and visible in server logs. Rollback
requires a compatible reader against the same external state. Ordinary
object deletion does not erase retained historical object versions or
backups.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, `gpt-6.1-sol`, with reasoning, tool use, code execution,
and browser verification. The runtime did not expose a context-window
size.

DottaandPaperclip 2a6d4d1694 perf(db): index canonical task activity lookups (#18043)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/177/changes/paperclip/177
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and their tasks.
> - Task lists rank tasks by their latest canonical activity.
> - The existing lookup reads every event for each task before
pagination.
> - Query-only alternatives failed a narrow visibility control or the
performance goal.
> - This PR adds an index that lets the unchanged lookup stop at the
newest qualifying event.
> - The result is less history work with the same permissions, ordering,
and response.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #13803. That broader proposal stores a new activity field with
triggers and a backfill. This index was authored independently and uses
the existing query.

**Subsystem affected**

Task-list activity ranking and the database schema.

**Current behavior**

The list computes `MAX(activity_log.created_at)` for every eligible
task. The existing entity index reads 50 events per task across 1,199
candidates in the representative fixture.

**Proposed behavior**

Add `(company_id, entity_type, entity_id, created_at)`. Keep the
production task service and permission helpers unchanged. PostgreSQL
reads backward until an event passes the existing exclusions.

**Reason and benefit**

Fresh paired measurements on the current base improve the
full-description scoped SQL from **44.60 to 20.33 ms (2.19×)**. Activity
buffer accesses fall from **63,547 to 4,796**, and history rows per
probe fall from 50 to one. The complete service median falls from 50.63
to 31.31 ms. Complete positional SQL results and service responses
match.

## What Changed

- Add generated migration `0414_closed_edwin_jarvis.sql` and the
matching Drizzle index.
- Use `CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY IF NOT EXISTS` through the existing
top-level runner and invalid-index retry cleanup. The client change is
one whitelist entry.
- Preserve all upstream SQL and journal entries; retain snapshots
0410–0414.
- Cover full and index projections, canonical ordering, invalid-index
recovery, concurrent migrators, and incomplete fixture rejection.
- Repair benchmark seeding, apply requested work memory to both
connections, and record both settings. Hosted defaults now include six
Slack conversations, 642 GitHub conversations, and 53 removed
conversations.

## Verification

- **All final-head CI gates passed**, including full workspace
typechecks, tests, build, Runner checks, and all eight E2E shards.
Greptile is **5/5** on `67ca7ae1cf15fc054ef515ffd8205b1fe30a0d55`; no
unresolved review threads remain.
- Local database/server typechecks and migration numbering/safety checks
pass. Three server regression tests and three migration regression
suites pass on real PostgreSQL.
- The original pre-index work guard fails at eight rows per probe; the
indexed guard now checks both the full-description query and index
projection. The service oracle covers cleanup/inbox exclusions, raw text
IDs, company scope, comments, ties, sort directions, visibility before
pagination, empty lists, and one child per parent.
- The documented pre-index seed command reproduced the review failure
before the fix and now succeeds. A paired run with non-default memory
confirms both independent connections use `16MB`.
- Fresh proof pins pre-index base
`929e840595c8933ca485ac7a2e99413e1e11ca64`, with identical cloned data,
unchanged generated SQL and parameters, two warmups, and five
alternating samples per arm. All **18 comparison cells** preserve every
positional row and complete service response. The 15-case default-memory
matrix passes its physical-work, speed, and control bounds.
- The one-visible-task control is 6.64 → 7.25 ms SQL; the 20-task
control is 3.71 → 3.72 ms. Both pass the declared 25% or 2 ms budget.
Full-query memory controls use matching `4MB` or `16MB` settings.
- Committed 1,000-row write batches measured 40.09 → 43.17 ms median
(+7.7%). Ranges overlap (34.67–71.85 and 34.27–48.05 ms); this is an
observed local cost, not a precise throughput guarantee.
- The final-numbered migration builds a valid index through the normal
runner on the fresh 300,000-row fixture in 0.55 s. Earlier large-fixture
proof of the same index SQL used 5,000 tasks and 1.25M activity rows:
2.58 s first apply, concurrent write/read probes 5.16/2.43 ms,
interrupted invalid-index cleanup, successful retry, and one receipt.
Current migration recovery tests verify the renumbered path.
- [The proof
document](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/67ca7ae1cf15fc054ef515ffd8205b1fe30a0d55/docs/performance/task-list-activity-index.md)
retains the historical baseline, rejected rewrites, and the earlier
matrix invalidated by severe host contention. Those historical timings
are not substituted for the fresh measurements above.

## Risks

The migration is an exception after measured query-only alternatives
failed. The index adds storage and work to every activity write: about
30 MiB for 300,000 rows and 123 MiB for 1.25M rows. Concurrent creation
avoids the writer blocking observed with an ordinary index build, but
long transactions can delay it. Local timing does not establish Neon
build duration.

The query still ranks all eligible tasks, and excluded newer events
still need to be skipped. These are local SQL/service measurements;
deployed HTTP latency remains unverified. No hosted DDL or deployment
was performed.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip a30194e008 perf: avoid company scans in task privacy ancestry (#18024)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Task reads use one shared privacy predicate for detail, list, badge,
and derived access.
> - Its recursive parent join can scan all tasks for each frontier,
including tasks with no parent.
> - A 1,200-task local reproduction inspects 1,440,000 recursive task
rows without finding any parent.
> - Each task has at most one same-company parent, so the query can
probe that parent directly.
> - This pull request exposes that single-parent contract to the planner
and keeps the existing access rules.
> - The result removes repeated scans and avoids JIT in the measured
large callers.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14718 and #17973. I searched public issues and open/closed PRs for
privacy ancestry and privacy performance work. No competing open fix was
found.

**What happened?**

Task privacy checks repeat company task scans and private-project checks
during list and unread badge reads. The recursive join may do this work
even when every parent is NULL.

**Expected behavior**

Read each actual same-company parent through the existing unique task
index. Preserve current grants, project membership, user intersections,
cycle termination, and visibility before pagination.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run `authorization-privacy-query.test.ts` against the pre-fix query. The
semantic ID check passes. Its plan-work assertion fails at 1,440,000
rows against a 3,600-row bound. The same test passes after this change.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Measured baseline `8279c990080b15abdcd9981f5793290fab37f9ad`. The branch
was replayed onto `71b448b9cb841e6fa18fe883585430c5081245da`. Both have
identical pre-fix authorization, issue-service and participation-helper
sources. Treatment source SHA-256 is
`a99faf974070a35f2786c92407e023c668c1f7b99b6604f6281c89bce089b1a8`.

**Deployment mode**

Source checkout, isolated local PostgreSQL 17.11 on ARM64 Linux. No
hosted write, migration, merge, or deployment was performed.

## What Changed

- Skip NULL privacy parents. Use a lateral lookup for the exact
same-company parent through existing indexes.
- Keep `UNION` cycle detection and every existing principal, grant,
private-project and membership expression. Both `LIMIT 1` clauses are
redundant: one anchor and one unique parent give at most one row per
recursive generation. The query still follows a complete deep chain.
- Cover open ancestors inside private projects, including current
project visibility and ancestor grant revocation. Place the benchmark
under `server/scripts/` with ordinary package imports.
- Add real PostgreSQL regressions and a pinned-baseline benchmark for
complete badge/list calls. Keep all 36 measured cells, ranges, neutral
paths, failed experiments, and the single-chain proof in [the query
proof](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/perf-task-privacy-ancestry/doc/plans/2026-10-28-task-privacy-query.md).

## Verification

Local warm full-service medians, with two warmups and five alternating
measured calls per arm:

| Scoped caller | Baseline | Treatment | Ratio |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Dense badge, default JIT | 645.33 ms | 77.11 ms | 8.37x |
| Dense list, default JIT | 214.77 ms | 29.87 ms | 7.19x |
| Sparse list, default JIT | 117.92 ms | 13.22 ms | 8.92x |
| Dense list, JIT off | 55.69 ms | 30.62 ms | 1.82x |
| Sparse list, JIT off | 16.61 ms | 15.12 ms | 1.10x |

All 36 cases match every positional SQL field and row order across all
captured queries. Complete final badge IDs and list objects also match.
Both badge phases and ordinary list enrichment remain in the measured
caller. Dense/sparse fixtures have 1,200 tasks, 300,000 activity rows
and 24,000 comments, with wide random content. Small, unrestricted,
private fan-out, 64-level ancestry, cycle, and JIT on/off controls are
included.

The dense ranking plan reduces recursive task and project work from
720,000 visits each to zero. Its cost estimate falls from 103,000.61 to
20,458.73 and JIT disappears. Separate EXPLAIN execution falls from
524.04 to 34.34 ms. The dense JIT-off main list statement falls from
29.52 to 1.89 ms; remaining service work limits the full-call gain.

**Retained failed goals:** `--assert-performance --max-dense-ms=60`
exited 1. The original 60 ms dense badge goal remains unmet at 77.11 ms.
Four full-service cases also miss the exploratory blanket 2x goal. These
criteria remain in the harness and are not counted as green. The
delivered optimization is proved by the deterministic query-work
red/green test and complete result equality.

Small and unrestricted controls meet their original 25% or 2 ms
allowance. All 12 unrestricted cells use byte-identical SQL and
parameters in both arms; their overlapping timing variation is
neutral/inconclusive. Modest slower scoped controls are retained,
including small JIT-off list 16.18→18.78 ms and cycle JIT-off list
14.78→16.29 ms. There is no claim that all paths improve.

- Final head `328078f494d6ec585936fb75a9410ad39eefd099`: full CI passes
(55 success, 1 neutral, 2 skipped); fresh Greptile is 5/5 with zero
unresolved review threads. The optional Paperclip Review ended neutral
because its worker stopped; its earlier two specific recommendations are
both addressed below.
- Final-runtime focused Docker PostgreSQL run: **44/44 tests passed**
across ancestry work, production privacy, unread badge, and creation
visibility suites. Includes fresh revocation, private projects, grant
direction, three-principal agent intersections, cycles, deep
inheritance, foreign-company parents, and access before LIMIT.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed before replay. The real
PostgreSQL ancestry suite passed after replay (5/5 tests, 17.44
seconds). The added private-project ancestor case then passed in the
six-test suite (43.04 seconds). Database and server typechecks and
builds passed after replay; review follow-ups change tests and benchmark
location only. A small relocated-command smoke preserves byte-identical
generated SQL and complete result comparisons.
- `pnpm test:run`: attempted, then stopped with exit 143 after 16 native
database bootstrap failures in 940 executor cases. An independent empty
native `initdb` fails with `semget` semaphore exhaustion before
application SQL. This local full suite is incomplete, not passed. All 16
affected cases then passed on real PostgreSQL 17 Docker in 155.04
seconds (924 other cases were intentionally filtered out).
- An earlier focused command passed 35 tests but skipped eight after a
20-second database setup timeout. The later 44/44 pass resolves that
coverage gap; the failed command is retained.
- The first CI e2e shard attempt completed functional split-handoff
assertions, then cleanup run cancellation hit a one-second row-lock
timeout. The unchanged local-trusted cleanup path does not use the
changed privacy predicate. A single same-head job retry passed. The
original failure is retained.
- The first lateral-only draft removed scans but raised estimated
ancestry rows from 11 to 101 and retained JIT. The per-generation fence
fixes that estimate. No failed attempt was discarded.

Reproduce the measured caller pair:

```sh
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx scripts/benchmark-task-privacy.ts \
  --baseline-ref=71b448b9cb841e6fa18fe883585430c5081245da \
  --evidence-dir=/tmp/task-privacy-proof
```

The full matrix takes about 107 seconds locally, including 8 seconds of
setup. Capture and EXPLAIN run outside ordinary timing samples. Only the
old authorization module changes between arms; caller source and all
relevant query helpers remain constant. Hosted request latency remains
unverified.

## Risks

- The per-generation bound depends on the single anchor and unique
scalar parent contract. A future multi-parent model must revise this
query and its deep/cycle tests.
- Tiny tables can still use a cheap sequential lookup for a real parent.
The guard prevents broad scans for absent parents; it does not force
index use everywhere.
- The 60 ms badge goal and blanket full-service 2x goal remain failed.
Unchanged enrichment, application work and local variation remain
visible in the measurements.
- This changes shared read authorization SQL. No permissions are cached,
no authorization moves after LIMIT, and no schema or startup change is
included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, local code execution and
real PostgreSQL profiling. The exact model ID and context-window size
are not exposed by this session. No more specific ID or window size is
claimed.

DottaandPaperclip 52b86c2032 perf: avoid repeated run-context reads for queued comments (#18021)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Execution recovery shows how many saved user messages remain
unconsumed.
> - This read must preserve the rule that consumed input cannot be
replayed.
> - The current query reads a large run context again for each saved
comment.
> - PostgreSQL already scans the run relation once, but repeats the JSON
reads.
> - This pull request projects the two wake-comment fields before the
repeated comparison.
> - The query uses less database work and returns the same blocker
state.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The eight-comment consumption query averaged 131.14 ms across 99 calls
in a recent hosted sample. Each call returned all eight comments. The
query used about 8,002 shared buffer hits per call. It used no JIT
compilation. The local plan showed repeated TOAST reads in the
anti-join, despite a single run scan.

**Expected behavior**

Count saved, undeleted user comments without reading each large context
again for each comment. Keep exact JSON issue bindings, JSON
containment, company scope, and cancellation rules. Consumed input must
remain excluded.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run the committed benchmark against disposable PostgreSQL with
repository migrations. Pass the pinned baseline below. Seed forty task
runs with 72 KiB random contexts, eight unconsumed comments, and 1,400
unrelated runs. Compare complete SQL rows and the full execution blocker
result.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Pre-fix baseline: `8279c990080b15abdcd9981f5793290fab37f9ad`. This
branch is based on current master. The intervening master changes do not
change the measured service or its SQL helpers.

**Deployment mode**

The report came from hosted PostgreSQL 17.11. The local proof uses
disposable PostgreSQL 17.11 on ARM64 Linux.

Related correctness work: #16528, #16664, and #18012. This query change
does not replace those fixes or resolve the replay report in #17782. The
duplicate search found no open performance fix for this query.

## What Changed

- Select only `wakeCommentId` as text and `wakeCommentIds` as JSON
before the anti-join.
- Use `OFFSET 0` as a PostgreSQL projection boundary. Keep lazy
first-match behavior and the existing company/JSON-issue index.
- Preserve the original singular text comparison and JSON containment
expression. Keep cancelled-before-start, deleted-comment, user-author,
and company filters unchanged.
- Add real PostgreSQL regression tests and a reproducible paired
benchmark. Compare every positional SQL column and the entire service
result.
- Record the rejected scan-count hypothesis, slower controls, full
samples, and acceptance limits in the [proof
document](doc/plans/2026-10-28-queued-comment-consumption-query.md).

## Verification

- Red before the source change: the eight-comment/300-run fixture used
35,711 shared buffer accesses and failed the selected 10,600-work
budget. Five semantic cases passed. The earlier single-scan guard passed
the original code and is not counted as red.
- Green: six new real PostgreSQL cases and 85 existing queued-comment
route cases pass together: **91/91**. Coverage includes
cancelled-before-start, started cancellation, no replay, conflicting
native IDs, noncanonical JSON IDs, cross-company data, deleted/agent
comments, and scalar/object/nested-array JSON.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed. `pnpm test:run` was
attempted and stopped after 16 native PostgreSQL startup failures in an
unchanged executor suite; 924 other cases in that file passed. The full
local attempt is incomplete and is not counted as a pass. Those same 16
cases then passed with Docker PostgreSQL 17.11. Full Linux CI passed on
the final head.
- A standalone empty native `initdb` fails with `semget: No space left
on device` from the macOS semaphore limit. Native PostgreSQL startup is
unsupported on this host. Its focused attempt skipped six tests. The
91-case run used a private Docker PostgreSQL constructor substitute.
Repository database creation, migrations, clients, and cleanup were
retained. No test infrastructure change is committed.
- Final head `d2921d9220e22624f85f7057a577a6e2e98dc097`: all 58 check
contexts are terminal and clean (55 success, two expected skips, one
neutral). The full [PR
workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40699607944)
passed. Greptile reviewed this exact head at 5/5. Paperclip Review
originally requested the deep first-consumed control; it now passes and
that thread is resolved. Its latest automated review attempt stopped
before completion and reported neutral, so no fresh Paperclip 5/5 is
claimed.

Two warmups and five alternating samples per arm, with capture, equality
checks, and plans outside the timers:

| Local fixture | SQL median before → after | Full blocker median before
→ after | Shared buffer accesses |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Representative: 40 runs, 72 KiB, 8 unconsumed comments | **11.47 →
3.82 ms (3.00×)** | **29.48 → 18.85 ms** | **7,686 → 966** |
| Same fixture, JIT disabled | 10.96 → 3.63 ms | 32.18 → 24.75 ms |
7,686 → 966 |
| 11 runs, 72 KiB | 8.35 → 5.05 ms | 37.60 → 35.13 ms | 2,116 → 268 |
| 8 comments consumed by the first wide run | 1.60 → 1.28 ms | 13.90 →
16.59 ms | 196 → 28 |
| 1,400-run stress, above observed task depth | 172.82 → 44.27 ms |
212.60 → 73.94 ms | 175,089 → 37,889 |
| 1,400 runs, first wide run consumes all 8 | 1.54 → 1.99 ms | 19.00 →
18.23 ms | 122 → 24 |

Representative SQL ranges: 10.36–12.33 ms before and 2.83–4.30 ms after.
Service ranges: 27.34–33.22 ms before and 18.58–21.81 ms after. All 24
final fixture/JIT cells return identical complete rows and service
objects. The follow-up widens the consuming run to the same payload size
as history and supersedes the initial thin-row consuming controls. All
final-matrix benchmark budgets pass. The deterministic buffer-work
budget was selected before the production change. The timing criteria
were selected after the initial exploratory projection trial and before
the final quiet matrices.

Small and empty-history service medians rose by 5.03 ms and 3.90 ms in
the JIT-on matrix. Small-case ranges overlap: 18.49–36.48 ms before and
17.29–41.89 ms after. These differences do not establish a causal
service regression. The JIT-off small and empty-history controls
improved slightly. The unchanged no-comment path runs no changed SQL.
The one-comment control is neutral. The widened immediately consumed
service median rose 2.69 ms (19 percent), inside the selected 25 percent
or 2 ms service budget. Its ranges overlap: 13.34–27.72 ms before and
13.18–18.10 ms after. This accepts a possible bounded small-path cost;
it does not claim every path gets faster. All controls and full
distributions remain in the proof.

The reviewer-requested deep first-consumed plan reads exactly **one**
underlying run row in each arm. Both materializations return one row,
revisited eight times. The remaining history is not read eagerly. JIT-on
SQL ranges overlap at 0.86–2.79 ms before and 0.77–4.38 ms after; this
proves early exit rather than a latency gain. With JIT disabled, SQL is
1.08 → 1.07 ms and service time is 11.36 → 11.53 ms, with the same 122 →
24 buffer accesses. Production source is unchanged by this proof update.

Reproduce:

```sh
QUEUED_COMMENT_BENCHMARK_DATABASE_URL="$DISPOSABLE_QUEUED_COMMENT_DATABASE_URL" \
  pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx ../scripts/benchmark-queued-comment-consumption.ts \
  --baseline-ref=8279c990080b15abdcd9981f5793290fab37f9ad --require-budget
```

Use an isolated `queued_comments_` database. Repeat with `--jit-off`.
Without the URL, the script creates disposable embedded PostgreSQL. The
benchmark rejects changed runtime helpers and records source hashes,
settings, SQL/parameters, complete results, samples, and plans.

## Risks

- PostgreSQL planner changes can alter the materialization strategy. The
regression guard checks repeated context work on the supplied fixture.
- Small local service medians are noisy. Their ranges and slower medians
remain visible. A faster local query does not establish the same hosted
request saving.
- JSON authority and no-replay rules are sensitive. The query keeps the
original predicates and has real database tests for non-array and
conflicting-ID cases.
- There is no migration, index, cache, history cutoff, extra round trip,
deployment, or hosted write.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning and tool use. The exact model
ID and context window are not exposed by this session. They are not
inferred from a model alias.

DottaandPaperclip 5f0da562db fix(server): wake chat lifecycle milestones from committed changes (#17606)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connected chats show safe notices when a run starts, waits,
finishes, or fails.
> - A recurring scan projected these notices even when no eligible work
existed.
> - Eligibility depends on committed run state, conversation lineage,
and current authority.
> - Existing database rows can reconstruct that work after restart.
> - This PR wakes a scoped worker from those writes and removes
lifecycle polling.
> - Native progress events keep their separate existing owner until the
next migration.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The chat maintenance timer repeatedly scanned run lifecycle state. Empty
and settled instances still queried the database. A run-status event
alone cannot replace the scan: prompt receipts, continuation receipts,
identity changes, and restored authority can make a run eligible later.

**What did you expect?**

Committed changes wake projection. Startup reconstructs eligible work. A
completed pass stops until another relevant change arrives. Failed work
retains recovery without scanning settled history forever.

**Steps to reproduce**

Configure an automatic chat endpoint. Finish its work, or leave it
unused. Observe recurring lifecycle projection queries from the chat
maintenance callback.

Stacked on #17592. Related foundation: #15625. This PR owns lifecycle
milestones only.

## What Changed

- Preserve upstream coalesced Cloud membership writes together with
locked membership restoration and its committed chat notification.

- Signal milestone eligibility from the real Slack account-link
transaction.

- Register the lifecycle worker with the existing delivery coordinator.
Remove lifecycle projection from the periodic chat callback. Keep native
progress in a separately named lane and preserve the explicit combined
API.
- Reconstruct company/issue scopes from the existing selector. Drain
bounded batches with company fairness. Retry failures, retain writes
through drain/resume, and disarm settled work.
- Signal from supported run, presentation, interaction, receipt,
lineage, conversation, recovery, and authority writers. Preserve their
transaction ownership, including nested savepoints and uncertain
settlement. No new table is added.
- Preserve provider authorization, authored-final suppression,
responsible-user continuity, deduplication, the 24-hour selection
window, and raw-output restrictions. Keep provider interpretation in its
owner.
- Preserve PostgreSQL timestamp precision in lifecycle pagination.
Rejected submillisecond candidates must not repeat the same page and
starve later notices.
- Document producer coverage and alternate-writer dispositions in
`doc/plans/2026-10-25-chat-run-milestone-sleep-audit.md`.

## Verification

Published head: `1d056f68c5b1005933b9e12de8745bf1c4cbeeca`, targeting
master after #17592 merged at
`7d75ae0569e41786640cf09647ae8849411d2f22`. A normal merge integrates
the actual landed parent. The entire 77-path milestone patch is
binary-identical to the locally verified preparation across that
ancestry reconciliation; both unrelated master paths are preserved. The
four earlier producer/test integration conflicts retain scoped milestone
and voice notices, current onboarding completion admission, and expanded
identity query/read-scope coverage.

- **330 distinct selected cases pass on the verified unchanged patch:**
305 across 14 complete suites (all five milestone worker suites, run
identity, board claim, Cloud provisioning, auth session routes, Cloud
actor authentication, stale-lock recovery, GitHub credentials, project
Git authorization, and app admission wiring), plus 25 selected real chat
producer cases. The remaining 1,590 chat integration cases were skipped,
not passed.
- The real producer cases cover saved milestone discovery, GitHub and
Slack identity changes, account-link rollback/reconfirmation, ordinary
ingress reactivation, post-close action/delivery receipt settlement, all
ten authority-restoration paths including Cloud synchronization, and
changed native review metadata.
- Worker coverage verifies outer commit, rollback, uncertain-write
recovery, restart, bounded batching/fairness, timestamp precision,
retries, drain/resume, and settled SQL quiet. Authorization and existing
publication deduplication remain with their owning services.
- Server production typechecking, build, and module-boundary checks
pass. The tests above were executed separately. Production typechecking
excludes `src/__tests__` and does not replace those runs. Each database
owner uses its own newly created and app-migrated PostgreSQL fixture.
- [Current-parent acceptance and preserved failure
ledger](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/1d056f68c5b1005933b9e12de8745bf1c4cbeeca/doc/plans/2026-10-25-chat-run-milestone-sleep-audit.md#current-parent-integration-and-acceptance-october-28)
records commands, counts, producer scope, conflict dispositions, and
limits. Earlier combined-stack counts and failures keep their original
revision scope; local acceptance does not erase old CI failures.
- No new migration, queue table, dependency, workflow, or shared
scheduler contract is introduced. Parent migration 0397, bounded consent
recovery, voice cleanup/retention repairs, and runner checkpoint
restoration remain present.
- **Exact-head Greptile is 5/5 and all 55 current checks are clean.** No
Ponytail review is present, which is an explicitly authorized
nonblocker; no failing review is waived. Older reviews and parent checks
are not current passes. Actual failing Ponytail findings must be fixed;
an absent/stopped/paused turn without a verdict is an authorized
nonblocker. Active unfinished Ponytail uses its original request/start
timer, with a 25-minute monitor cutoff respecting the user's 30-minute
maximum.
- No complete local repository matrix, live provider tenant, external
alarm, physical host/database suspension, or fleet savings claim is
made. Native progress remains a separate following slice.

## Risks

- A future eligibility writer must notify the existing projection
boundary. Independent SQL writers or another active server process are
outside this process-local signal contract.
- Authority and lineage remain sensitive. The worker uses the existing
selectors and publication policy; it does not grant execution or
disclosure authority.
- Native progress and other publication maintenance still have recurring
work. This PR removes one reason, not the entire chat maintenance timer.
- Worker quiet does not prove database suspension, host sleep, or
external alarm coverage. Cloud sleep blockers remain unchanged.
- Merge eligibility requires passing current-head CI and Greptile 5/5
after this actual-master reconciliation. Subsequent stack slices retain
their own gates.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact serving model ID and
context-window size are not exposed. Used repository inspection,
reasoning, shell execution, PostgreSQL tests, browser E2Es and GitHub
tools.

DottaandPaperclip a91f78e7e0 perf(chat): reduce inbound queue discovery cost (#17971)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage companies of AI agents.
> - External chat messages enter a durable delivery queue.
> - Queue reads must preserve pending wake ownership and conversation
order.
> - Retained processed history increases the estimated cost of a
correlated pending-action test.
> - PostgreSQL 17 enables JIT for these small selectors and reads extra
JSON in deadline discovery.
> - This pull request uses a scoped pending-action set for open-work
discovery.
> - The benefit is less database work with the same selected deliveries
and deadlines.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Inbound delivery deadline discovery and conversation-head selection.

**Subsystem affected**

Server chat queue discovery.

**Current behavior**

A correlated `EXISTS` inside an `OR` has a high cost estimate on
retained completed history. PostgreSQL 17 already hashes its
pending-action read, but the estimate still enables JIT. Deadline
discovery also reads JSON from completed deliveries that have no pending
wake.

**Proposed behavior**

Use `(company_id, endpoint_id, delivery_id)` membership in the
pending-action set for the two open-work selectors. Keep ready-only
evaluation on its original scoped `EXISTS`. Keep retry, lease, ordering,
lifecycle and endpoint rules.

**Reason and benefit**

The local retained-history fixture reduces deadline selection time. The
small control and the final head selection are neutral. Ready-only
selection remains an unchanged control.

**Breaking changes**

None. No API, schema, migration, stored history, worker, timer or
notification changes.

Related work: #17647 and #15927 change inbound wake-notice scheduling
and selection. This PR changes the separate conversation queue ownership
predicate.

## What Changed

- Use a fully scoped pending-action set for open-work discovery. Exclude
null delivery IDs to preserve exact boolean results. Keep duplicate
actions from multiplying deliveries.
- Preserve the original ready-only query.
- Add five real PostgreSQL tests and a reproducible baseline/treatment
benchmark. Capture the complete real service SQL, parameters, positional
rows and execution plans.
- Document the query cause, rejected hypotheses, test results and limits
in `doc/plans/2026-10-27-inbound-queue-query-proof.md`.

## Verification

Pinned pre-fix baseline: `09ad9adce2cf4742944353a3707a2f908e9bb35e`.

Local fixture: Linux ARM64 PostgreSQL 17.11, Node 26.4.0. It has 1500
completed deliveries and actions, two open deliveries, and 32 KiB of
synthetic incompressible JSON per historical delivery. A separate
control has 20 completed rows. The normal settings use JIT on with a
100000 cost threshold, 128 MiB shared buffers and 4 MiB work_mem.

The final quiet retained-history pair measured these local SQL medians.
Each
arm has two warmups and five alternating samples. The small control is
neutral.

| Actual selector | Baseline | Treatment | Complete positional output |
| --- | ---: | ---: | --- |
| Next inbound deadline | 18.78 ms | 1.58 ms | Equal |
| Conversation head | 5.71 ms | 6.18 ms | Equal |
| Ordinary ready control | 9.23 ms | 8.33 ms | Equal ; unchanged |

The deadline plan uses fewer shared buffers. Head physical reads remain
unchanged. Deadline discovery avoids JIT on this fixture. The pristine
head estimate is below the JIT threshold in both arms, and its timing is
neutral. With JIT disabled, deadline discovery still improves; head and
ready timings overlap.

- Red: the unchanged baseline fails the explicit local fixture work
budget for JIT and deadline buffer reads. Green: the treatment passes.
There is no timing threshold in ordinary CI.
- Five new PostgreSQL tests and six existing assembled chat tests pass.
They cover scoped/null/duplicate pending actions, boolean results,
payloads, head barriers, reactions, paused/attention/AgentMail
exclusions, retry/processing deadlines, provider ordering, lease loss,
lifecycle retry and edit/admission races.
- Actual old/new ready selectors have equal error outcomes for unrelated
malformed retry timestamps. An initial AND-only oracle comparison was
inconclusive and is not defect evidence.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passes.
- `pnpm build` passes.
- Final head `f3cac298d8a8a5377127b0db7057c52019bbe426` passes the
complete [CI
workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40625611887).
Greptile is 5/5 on that head with no unresolved review threads. The
earlier end-to-end cleanup lock-timeout failure passed on this revision.
- The complete local suite was not run. The host's known native
PostgreSQL startup failure exhausts SysV semaphores. Focused integration
tests use a disposable Docker PostgreSQL constructor through the
existing test seam. Complete final-head CI is required.

Reproduce the real SQL comparison:

```sh
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx ../scripts/benchmark-inbound-queue-discovery.ts --baseline-ref=09ad9adce2cf4742944353a3707a2f908e9bb35e --require-work-budget --retained-only
```

Use `--jit-off` for the diagnostic control. The default command uses the
repository's bundled PostgreSQL version and records it in output. The
reported 17.11 run used the existing test constructor seam with a
disposable `postgres:17` container. Raw samples, complete queries,
parameters and plans are emitted as JSON. The benchmark uses disposable
synthetic data and does not read a live database URL.

## Risks

- Query plans depend on data and PostgreSQL settings. These local
measurements do not prove deployed speed or request latency.
- Head selection still reads historical JSON. Action history remains
stored and scanned. This is not a constant-time queue implementation.
- The changed false branch has no retry timestamp cast. Ready-only
parsing, claims and retries stay on their existing query.
- Background SQL totals can overlap. Do not add these savings into an
HTTP latency claim. The largest possible saving for an affected
selection is bounded by its observed SQL time, about 49–53 ms on average
in discovery.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with tool use and code execution. The
runtime does not expose the exact model ID or context-window size. Three
parallel agents own separate performance fixes; this PR contains only
the inbound queue fix.

DottaandPaperclip f69dfc0e23 perf: use indexed latest-run probes for task interruption lists (#17969)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Task lists show the latest run's interruption state for each visible
task.
> - The old lookup applies a coalesced text expression to company run
history.
> - That lookup cannot use the separate binding indexes for a small task
page.
> - This pull request selects the newest run through those existing
indexes.
> - The benefit is less database work with the same interruption result.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The latest-run lookup used by task-list interruption enrichment.

**Current behavior**

The query scans company history for a coalesced native, first-class, or
legacy task ID. A local two-task fixture inspects 1,506 runs to select
six candidates. A recent hosted sample recorded about 110 ms per
latest-run lookup. This is one part of the list handler, not its whole
latency.

**Proposed behavior**

Probe each existing binding index for the newest candidate. Pick the
newest candidate across the three binding branches. Read the same
evidence fields in the same SQL statement. Preserve native precedence,
first-class precedence, legacy text matching, company scope, and
ordering ties.

**Reason and benefit**

The representative local 100-task page improves from 17.17 ms to 3.00 ms
(5.72×). A modern 100-task page with 40 runs per task improves from
26.78 ms to 3.82 ms (7.02×). All positional SQL fields, row order, and
full service results match.

**Breaking changes**

None. Stored history, API fields, visibility filtering, execution
authority, and external-conversation state are unchanged.

Related behavior: #16965, #17509, #17552. The duplicate search found no
open PR for this query rewrite. ROADMAP.md has no duplicate planned
feature.

## What Changed

- Use three disjoint indexed candidate branches with a lateral
newest-run selection.
- Guard UUID parameters to preserve the old text matching for
noncanonical input.
- Keep final evidence projection in the same database snapshot.
- Add real PostgreSQL work and contract regressions, a pinned-source
benchmark, and a verification note.
- Require the plan regression to find real run-table nodes. Record the
deep-native-history follow-up without adding indexes or DDL.

## Verification

- Baseline red: the real two-task lookup inspects 1,506 run rows and
fails the work bound. The unchanged semantic oracle passes.
- Treatment green: both PostgreSQL query regressions pass. They cover
conflicting bindings, malformed JSON, empty values, noncanonical IDs,
duplicates, foreign companies, missing runs, and timestamp ties across
branches.
- Seven paired PostgreSQL 17.11 cases pass complete positional SQL and
full service equality. Each arm has two warmups and five alternating
measured samples. Fixture payload sizes are random input bytes before
Base64 encoding: 24 KiB becomes 32 KiB of stored text per noise field.
- Representative 100 × 12 history: 17.17 ms (16.79–17.48) → 3.00 ms
(2.64–4.28). Shared buffer hits: 30,033 → 3,400.
- Modern 100 × 40 history: 26.78 ms (25.79–27.40) → 3.82 ms (3.47–4.78).
- The benchmark command, all cases, plans, fixture limits, and
feedback-loop timing are described in [the verification
note](doc/plans/2026-10-27-task-interruption-query-performance.md).
- Reproduce with `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx
../scripts/benchmark-task-interruption.ts
--baseline-ref=09ad9adce2cf4742944353a3707a2f908e9bb35e`.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed at
`20d46e3a16d10cf3c5399fc1211b17db6a4afdc6`. The current head has the
identical production runtime; it adds one test assertion and
documentation.
- The focused query, real project-access repair/retry, and presentation
suites pass: 19 tests across three files. The earlier plugin-sdk loading
failure is resolved by normal build setup.
- `pnpm test:run` was attempted, then stopped after repeated native
embedded PostgreSQL bootstrap failures. The full local suite is
incomplete. All 16 affected real-DB executor cases pass when rerun with
disposable PostgreSQL 17 in Docker.
- Linux CI passes the full server suites on this head. One unchanged
Runner close fixture failed on the first CI attempt; its source tree is
identical to the passing upstream #17439 baseline. One targeted job
retry passed on the original head. Fresh checks run again for the
test/documentation review fix. A separate macOS diagnostic fails the
unchanged close variants too; that close issue is not diagnosed or
counted as a local pass here.
- The original head passed 55 checks with one neutral result and two
expected Storybook skips. Greptile gave 5/5. The current head adds one
nonempty-plan assertion and documents the deep-history follow-up. Its
focused PostgreSQL suite passes 2/2. Final head
`c1db106d7ab56b530af82d2bb0556feb0eda290b` is mergeable with all CI
checks complete and passing, Greptile 5/5, and no unresolved review
findings; the documented per-task history limitation remains an explicit
follow-up.

## Risks

- More index probes add about 0.43 ms to the one-run tiny control. The
maximum 1,000-task page with one modern run per task is 9.99 → 14.11 ms,
a 4.12 ms regression. Dense history pages save substantially more in the
local fixture.
- Each branch can still walk one task's own history. The first-class and
legacy probes can discard native-bound rows after index lookup. The plan
note specifies a 10,000-run follow-up, migration-free alternatives, and
a measured index-build budget if indexes prove necessary. This PR does
not make work independent of history depth.
- Local SQL results do not prove deployed HTTP gains. The affected query
averaged about 110 ms in the hosted sample; its critical-path
contribution can be smaller because other enrichment reads run
concurrently.
- The main issue-list SQL and external-conversation gates remain
separate work. This PR has no migration or startup job.

## Model Used

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

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

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

**Current behavior**

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

**Proposed behavior**

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

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 94a780286f fix(server): schedule tool health from committed changes and deadlines (#17554)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI-agent work and its connected tools.
> - Idle hosted instances need their database and network activity to
stop.
> - The maintenance tick queries tool connections even when no health
check is due.
> - Existing connection rows already contain eligibility and the last
health observation.
> - This pull request reconstructs health deadlines and refreshes them
after committed changes.
> - The shared coordinator preserves retries, drain, and shutdown
without another private timer.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The aggregate maintenance tick scans connection health every 30 seconds.
Empty instances and connections with fresh health observations still
cause SQL activity.

**Expected behavior**

No eligible connection means no recurring health SQL. Eligible
connections retain the existing 15-minute proactive check. Configuration
changes and health observations update the schedule after commit.

**Steps to reproduce**

Start a server with heartbeat scheduling enabled and no tool
connections. Let startup finish and observe two maintenance ticks. The
old code repeats the health inventory query. The new startup regression
verifies that those ticks do not invoke the health inventory.

**Paperclip version or commit**

This branch includes merged parent #17518 and master
`96727b3cfefb61f85ffe1fbc29a9b6dd6837efe8`. The 47 changed paths belong
to the single tool-connection health duty. No database file differs from
master.

Related: #14638 covers runtime-auth exclusions. #15448, #15325, and
#11910 concern MCP failure classification. This PR preserves those
provider policies and does not replace their work.

## What Changed

- Keep the GitHub error-projection unit fixture at the health-write
boundary and verify the real transaction path in the PostgreSQL
health-worker suite.

- Add a health schedule owned by tool access. Read lean eligibility
fields and saved observation timestamps.
- Register health work with the existing coordinator. Refresh only dirty
connection/application/company scopes using bounded inventory pages,
check due connections in fair company batches, continue concrete due
backlog after one second, and retain failures with backoff.
- Notify before supported eligibility and observation writes in their
owning transactions. Cover API/gallery setup, OAuth, catalog/gateway
observations, email, voice, access removal, deletion, and settings.
- Commit connection creation with grant, binding, and runtime-slot SQL
before its wake. Keep provider calls outside the new transactions.
- Keep provider-to-transport mapping in the chat catalog. SDK-only chat
changes do not wake health work.
- Replace aggregate health scans, retain the public manual sweep, and
document the producer audit and remaining sleep limits.
- Keep metadata-only example and Smoke Lab installs scoped. Lock and
re-read application type before publishing a real eligibility change.
- Keep failed inventory reads on their own retry deadline while healthy
due batches continue.
- Apply fixture migrations before using external disposable databases in
all six producer suites.

## Verification

Published head: `8c1d293d1ae2b7db753ab20f5a2a2edec1fb0a62`. Fresh CI and
reviews are required for this exact head.

- **623 distinct targeted cases pass.** The final four complete health,
fair-batching, GitHub health recovery, and startup suites pass 80 cases
after the retry fix. Five complete producer suites pass 543 cases: tool
access 469, access 18, email 45, GitHub events four, and Smoke Lab
seven. The earlier 26 health cases are part of this total, not
additional cases.
- The six producer suites first passed against separate, initially empty
PostgreSQL 17 databases at `acbf262843`. They apply their own
migrations. The subsequent repair changes only the health worker and its
regression; its complete final consumer suites pass on that integrated
parent. Server typecheck and build pass with the final repair.
- **Installer amplification:** five real installs with 205 unrelated
connections reproduced 1,035 example rows and 1,045 Smoke Lab rows.
Repeated metadata installs now load only changed fixture connections.
The same cases restore an excluded application through each installer
and require all 205 unrelated IDs to re-enter the schedule.
- **Concurrent eligibility:** a real PostgreSQL lock-wait case requires
the installer to notify after a concurrent type change. A mutation that
retains the lock but uses the old lookup fails the settled-hint
assertion; original source was restored byte for byte.
- **Retry isolation:** the failing baseline read one unavailable company
three times while another company's 60 due checks drained. Final tests
require one initial read, at least 30 seconds between failed reads,
prompt healthy progress, eventual recovery, and SQL quiet after
settlement.
- Real-service producer coverage includes AgentMail activation/pause,
GitHub installation changes, and member access removal. Lifecycle
coverage includes outer commit/rollback, startup reconstruction,
drain/resume, failure, and shutdown.
- Failure history and exact evidence scope: [health
acceptance](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/8c1d293d1ae2b7db753ab20f5a2a2edec1fb0a62/doc/idle-tool-connection-health.md#acceptance-follow-up-after-the-plugin-parent-merged-october-27),
[producer
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/8c1d293d1ae2b7db753ab20f5a2a2edec1fb0a62/doc/plans/2026-10-24-tool-connection-health-sleep-audit.md).
Prior remote failures and earlier 706-case evidence remain historical.
Startup tests emitted listener-count warnings; all assertions passed. No
full local repository-suite, deployed sleep, fleet savings, or live
provider qualification claim is made.

## Risks

- Supported live writers must use the transaction signals. Independent
SQL writers and other replicas need their own wake integration.
- Configured eligible connections still have a real proactive health
obligation. This does not prove Cloud alarm coverage or host/database
suspension.
- Existing manual probes and catalog operations can overlap. This
migration does not introduce a credential-version CAS or change provider
failure policy.
- Voice remains eligible under the previous health policy. Its generic
probe can still report an unsupported transport; changing that behavior
is separate work.
- No database migration, new table, workflow, or lockfile change. This
PR includes its merged parent and current inspected master; later stack
PRs and all current-head acceptance gates remain separate.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with repository tools, code execution, and
reasoning. The exact serving version and context-window size are not
exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 2adcde162e fix(server): wake Grok dispatch from committed reservations (#17490)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agent work and should become idle when no work is
owed.
> - Grok routine dispatch already persists each outbound intent before
delivery.
> - Its dispatcher starts a one-second timer whenever public MCP is
configured.
> - That timer queries settings even when Grok is disabled, and scans
dispatches when enabled but idle.
> - The reservation transaction and feature-setting transaction already
define when work can become available.
> - This PR connects those writes to the shared coordinator and retains
the Grok service's claim and delivery policy.
> - The worker becomes quiet without adding a queue table or replaying
uncertain sends.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Stacked on #17486. This PR owns only Grok routine dispatch. It does not
include decision retention or other remaining maintenance owners.
Related open Grok PR #17278 concerns Runner credential-lease fixtures,
not this dispatcher. The duplicate search found no overlapping
dispatcher migration.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Grok routine dispatch recovery in the server.

**Current behavior**
With public MCP configured, the dispatcher reads instance settings every
second, including when Grok is disabled. With Grok enabled, it scans for
prepared dispatches every second. The baseline regression observed three
queries in 3.2 seconds with Grok disabled.

**Proposed behavior**
Reconcile once at startup. Wake from committed dispatch reservations and
experimental-setting changes. Schedule another pass only while prepared
dispatches remain or reconciliation failed. Disabled and settled workers
perform no recurring SQL or provider calls.

**Reason and benefit**
Remove unnecessary tenant database activity while preserving dispatch
recovery, current authorization, provider outcome semantics, and
shutdown ownership. This follows the existing sleep-aware maintenance
direction; ROADMAP review found no competing dispatcher redesign.

**Breaking changes**
No public API or provider payload change. The internal dispatcher start
method receives the shared coordinator; that coordinator now owns
shutdown. Sending, accepted, unknown, and terminal dispatches remain
non-replayable. This does not extend Cloud wake coverage.

## What Changed

- Register the Grok worker with the existing coordinator; remove its
independent timer.
- Signal reservation and experimental-setting writes before commit.
Nested writes follow their outer transaction.
- Preserve ten-row batches, durable send claims, current authority
checks, and existing cancellation/uncertainty policy.
- Join admitted work during shutdown and leave later rows for restart.
- Add a concurrent, replay-safe partial index for prepared dispatch
lookup. Keep only the five newest generated snapshots.
- Reuse the existing real OAuth/agent/routine fixture for lifecycle
tests and add a validated external PostgreSQL test option.
- Document producers, recovery, quiet conditions, and remaining
host-sleep limitations.

## Verification

Test revision: `6d81746fe260ee879442e7e0c879cfe88c250c8e`, followed by
docs-only head `679f523d78`, which received both 5/5 reviews and passing
CI. This candidate normally integrates landed target `8dfed893d8`. Its
entire runtime and acceptance-test sources match that reviewed/tested
tree; only four independently merged Runner E2E accounting files and the
ledger differ, preserved exactly. Migration 0391 and the parent journal
prefix are unchanged. Local checks were not repeated on unchanged
runtime; fresh final-head CI and reviews are required.

- **273 cases pass** in nine complete suites: real-PostgreSQL dispatch
lifecycle, Grok qualification, server startup, scoped deadlines and all
five instance-settings suites. Server typecheck and production build
pass with the updated Runner vendor.
- The baseline disabled-feature regression failed with three SQL reads.
Existing lifecycle cases cover first reservation, restart,
non-replayable history, re-enable, outer commit/rollback, drain,
failure/retry, concurrent enqueue, paging, foreground send race, expiry,
settings commit/rollback, and shutdown.
- Generated migration `0391_third_roulette.sql` adds only the
concurrent/idempotent prepared-dispatch index. All 389 parent journal
entries are unchanged; five generated snapshots remain (0387–0391).
Migration safety/numbering, schema drift and actual fresh apply/replay
on two isolated PostgreSQL databases pass.
- The earlier 259-case selection and 40,000-row generic-plan probe
remain historical evidence: both unchanged queries used the partial
index, six shared buffers including the routine join, 0.032ms / 0.025ms
local execution. No new deployed suspension or cost claim is made.
- Earlier browser CI failed during agent-chat fixture restoration (lock
timeout/HTTP 500), followed by a test seeing the experiment left
enabled. Those failures remain recorded in the owning audit; they were
not dispatcher assertions. Later pre-reconciliation `a74305e2b4` checks
were terminal and green. Fresh CI and both 5/5 bot reviews are required
for this head.

Commands: server Vitest for `grok-dispatch-work`, `grok-bot-routine`,
`server-startup-feedback-export`, `scoped-deadline-work` and the five
`instance-settings-*` suites; server typecheck/build; DB migration
safety/numbering, snapshot drift and fresh migration apply/replay.

## Risks

- Signals are local to the shared database owner and its child pools.
Independent SQL writers and other replicas need explicit wake
integration. Startup recovers committed prepared rows.
- Disabled Grok retains prepared rows and resumes after a committed
settings change. This does not relax Cloud's binding/assignment/hold
guards.
- Existing send-error cancellation policy is preserved. Sending or
unknown outcomes are not reset or automatically replayed; this is not an
exactly-once delivery change.
- Shutdown awaits the current send within existing transport timeouts
and stops before the next row.
- The index adds write/storage cost but bounds queries independently of
completed history. Existing migration execution runs concurrent index
creation outside a transaction.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip b5b9491f95 test(heartbeat): cover first resume with default workspace settings (#17948)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their tasks.
> - Task continuations reuse provider sessions when effective
configuration is unchanged.
> - Repository projects can inherit isolated workspace defaults from a
storage plugin.
> - Initial workspace binding must not change those defaults.
> - PR #17924 fixes policy resolution after binding.
> - Its regression supplied an explicit task strategy.
> - This pull request also tests unset task settings and an explicit
isolated mode.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17924 and #17447.

**What happened?**

On Core revision `e71a23c01c8af0e0b4cc5ac983d86886ba324239`, the first
continuation of a task with an inherited repository workspace reset its
provider session for `workspaceConfig`. The workspace was reused and its
configuration fingerprint did not change.

Session preparation runs before workspace binding. The first run
resolved the storage plugin's effective project policy. After binding,
`!boundSourceWorkspace` skipped that resolver and parsed the raw policy
instead. This dropped inherited provider and strategy fields from the
session fingerprint. The persisted change from unset task settings to
`reuse_existing` and `mode: isolated_workspace` exposed this path;
redundant task mode values are already normalized.

**Expected behavior**

Initial binding and two unchanged continuations retain the session and
workspace. Real effective policy changes still reset the session.
Explicit task settings and source-free tasks retain their behavior.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Configure a default storage plugin with isolated Git worktrees.
2. Create a repository project with no explicit project policy.
3. Start a task with unset workspace preference and settings.
4. Continue the task twice.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The runtime fix is already merged in #17924 at
`0b65926822aacde48729f4b82a5c333f4cadf375`. This PR adds regression
coverage on that fix. It does not duplicate or relax runtime freshness
checks.

## What Changed

- Run the existing repository heartbeat regression with unset settings,
an explicit isolated mode, and an explicit strategy.
- Assert that binding persists the expected workspace preference and
mode. Each case checks two unchanged continuations and a real
policy-change reset.
- Make synthetic storage inspection return the branch prepared for that
workspace, so generated default branch names pass the existing branch
validation.
- Update the session verification recipe.

## Verification

- All 240 tests pass across `heartbeat-session-preparation.test.ts`,
`heartbeat-workspace-session.test.ts`,
`project-workspace-provider.integration.test.ts`,
`plugin-workspaces.integration.test.ts`, and
`plugin-fresh-workspaces.integration.test.ts`. Run them from `server/`
with `node ../node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run src/__tests__/<file>`.
- Restoring the benchmark revision's `!boundSourceWorkspace` condition
makes the unset-settings case fail on its first continuation: the
dispatched provider session is null. Restoring #17924 makes the complete
eight-case session suite pass.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and `git diff --check` pass.
- Full `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` were attempted. Both stop at
Runner Rust checks because this host has no `cargo`. Full `pnpm
test:run` was started, then interrupted before its first group
completed. It is not counted as a pass; complete suite coverage is left
to CI. A separate server typecheck also stops at the missing Runner Rust
toolchain.
- Initial local attempts found stale cross-checkout dependency links and
sandbox restrictions on PostgreSQL/IPC. Isolated workspace links and
permitted local PostgreSQL resolved those prerequisites. The first new
fixture attempt failed branch validation because inspection returned a
hardcoded branch; the fixture now reports its prepared branch.
- Greptile scores current head
`5185e5e6443e0432b205a8ef63c5c878b9b74bdf` 5/5. Its check concluded
success and found no actionable issues. CI is still running.
- Tests use real PostgreSQL and heartbeat persistence with synthetic
provider execution. No live deployment or TTFT result is claimed.

## Risks

Low risk: this PR changes tests and the verification recipe only.
Runtime behavior, authorization, and configuration freshness remain
owned by the existing implementation. The local full checks are
incomplete as stated above. The benchmark deployment needs a revision
containing #17924 to receive the runtime fix.

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with repository inspection, code editing,
and local test execution. The exact serving model ID and context window
are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 09d4ca533e perf(server): return only sidebar failure badge candidates (#17935)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/95/changes/paperclip/95
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The sidebar badge shows failures that need attention.
> - The service reads the newest 200 runs before it selects one run per
agent.
> - Most of those rows cannot contribute to the failure count.
> - This pull request selects failure candidates in SQL and returns four
required fields.
> - The benefit is less database response data with the same badge and
access rules.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #12770. Refs: #17756. Refs: #17683.

These are related load, inbox, and badge reports. This implementation
was written independently from the current service. It does not change
which issue states count as failures.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The run read used by the company sidebar badge.

**Current behavior**

Every call transfers up to 200 rows with eight scalar fields. The
application then selects the latest run per agent and applies status,
Mine, dismissal, and access rules.

**Proposed behavior**

SQL selects the same latest run per agent from the same 200-row window.
It then applies status and Mine rules. It returns only the run ID,
scope, issue ID, and creation time. The service still checks dismissals
and current issue access.

**Reason and benefit**

A mixed synthetic fixture reduces the response from 30,689 to 1,297
value bytes. The complete badge response stays equal.

**Breaking changes**

None. The endpoint response and the 200-run window stay the same.

## What Changed

- Keep company and active-agent filters before the existing 200-row
limit.
- Rank each agent by the full creation timestamp in descending order,
then by the observation ordinal. The timestamp order explicitly selects
the newest run. Exact ties retain the first observed row. No ID
tie-break is added.
- Apply failure and Mine filters after ranking. A shared agent's success
cannot expose an older failure.
- Return four fields for dismissal and fresh issue authorization. Supply
the already constrained company ID in the service.
- Add real PostgreSQL regression fixtures and a service-generated SQL
comparison harness. Document the command in `doc/DEVELOPING.md`.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed. `pnpm build` then passed in a separate
sequential step. The normal Runner verifier checked 1,509 inputs and
1,555 outputs before reuse.
- `PAPERCLIP_SIDEBAR_TEST_DATABASE_URL=<dedicated-test-url> pnpm
--filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/sidebar-badges.test.ts` passed all 14 tests on PostgreSQL
17.11.
- The 10 unchanged `inbox-dismissals.test.ts` route tests passed against
the same real PostgreSQL server through a temporary local adapter for
database startup and cleanup. The adapter was removed. The standard host
run passed the 13 new tests and skipped those 10 embedded-PostgreSQL
tests.
- The first focused attempt could not import the unbuilt plugin SDK. The
normal build supplied that package before the passing reruns.
- `pnpm test:run` was attempted. It recorded 16 embedded-PostgreSQL
startup failures in the unrelated native-session executor suite. Other
database suites also reported startup failures and skipped. The owned
command was then stopped with exit 143. This is incomplete local
full-suite evidence, not a pass. Full remote CI passed on final head
`df5b2c81af43c282d031cc37e6bc867054217df5`: 54 successful checks, 2
neutral checks, and 2 optional Storybook skips; no pending or failed
checks. Fresh exact-head Greptile review is 5/5 with zero unresolved
threads.
- A fixture rollback test reproduced the review finding before the fix:
a failed final approval insert left 2 companies, 44 agents, 2 issues,
and 657 runs. After the fix, the same PostgreSQL constraint error leaves
zero owned rows in all five tables. The test also confirms that more
than 600 runs were written before the deliberate failure.
- Fixture seeding now uses one transaction, including the submillisecond
SQL insert. The 14 focused tests and all 10 benchmark cases pass after
this repair. The server typecheck also passes. Production SQL is
unchanged.
- The final ordering repair passed all 14 real-PostgreSQL tests, all 10
pinned-baseline benchmark cases, and affected server typecheck and
build, run sequentially. The plans now explicitly sort by agent ID, full
creation time descending, then observation ordinal. Complete badge
responses and candidate bindings remain equal.
- One server-test shard was interrupted by its CI runner receiving a
shutdown signal. Its test step was canceled without an assertion
failure. A single targeted retry passed; the aggregate `ci / verify`
gate also passed. No source change was needed for that interruption.
- `git diff --check` passed. No schema, workflow, or lockfile changed.

Reproduce the benchmark with current schema migrations and a dedicated
synthetic database whose name ends in `_test`:

```sh
PAPERCLIP_SIDEBAR_TEST_DATABASE_URL=<dedicated-test-url> PAPERCLIP_LOG_LEVEL=error SIDEBAR_REQUIRE_BYTE_REDUCTION=1 pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx ../scripts/benchmark-sidebar-badges.ts --baseline-ref=bf3ef12f3a78d0b15a32ad57f7e16520fbf6cd5e
```

The harness loads the baseline service from that commit. Its
authorization, privacy, and shared helper dependencies are unchanged. It
captures the SQL each service executes. It compares complete badge
responses and every returned candidate field. Fixtures cover more than
200 runs, shared agents, superseding successes, exact and submillisecond
ties, Mine user variants, dismissal equality, private and deleted
issues, missing issue bindings, terminated agents, and cross-company
rows. Tests also cover absent actors, grants, revocation, deletion after
a prior read, and index versus sort plans.

Synthetic local SQL results from PostgreSQL 17.11 on Docker, Node
24.22.1, and postgres.js 3.4.9 follow. Each timing is the median of
seven alternating warm samples after two warmups. The report includes
all samples, ranges, settings, SQL, parameters, and `EXPLAIN (ANALYZE,
BUFFERS, FORMAT JSON)` plans.

| Fixture | Rows before → after | Value bytes before → after | Reduction
| Median ms before → after |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Mixed, company-wide | 200 → 18 | 30,689 → 1,297 | 95.8% | 1.361 →
1.305 |
| Mixed, user-1 | 200 → 9 | 30,689 → 676 | 97.8% | 1.785 → 1.391 |
| Mixed, local-board | 200 → 6 | 30,689 → 414 | 98.7% | 1.463 → 1.232 |
| All failed, 200 distinct latest agents | 200 → 200 | 30,298 → 13,778 |
54.5% | 1.277 → 1.237 |
| All succeeded | 200 → 0 | 30,898 → 0 | 100% | 1.095 → 0.898 |
| Empty | 0 → 0 | 0 → 0 | Neutral | 0.703 → 1.002 |

Value bytes mean UTF-8 non-null cell values before Drizzle decoding.
They exclude PostgreSQL protocol framing and are not wire bytes. The
primary claim is less response data. Warm timing ranges overlap. Earlier
all-failed samples were slower, and the empty control remains slower.
SQL adds ranking work. No production latency improvement is claimed. The
plans keep the limit below both window operations.

## Risks

- SQL adds two bounded window operations. The all-failed control
transfers fewer bytes but can take more SQL time.
- Per-agent ranking explicitly orders by full creation time descending.
Exact timestamp ties retain the observation ordinal. Real PostgreSQL
tests compare complete candidates with the original helper under index
and sort plans.
- Mine rules now also have a SQL form. Tests cover undefined, null,
empty, named, and local-board users, including empty responsible-user
IDs.
- Issue access stays fresh and fail closed. No authorization result is
cached. No migration or stored run change is required.

DottaandPaperclip 3d07e06be7 perf(chat): project reply lineage run context (#17932)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A run can continue a task that began in an external chat.
> - The reply router follows durable lineage to find the authorized
conversation.
> - Each lineage hop reads the full run context, although it uses only
nine keys.
> - Wide prompts and workspace data make that read transfer far more
data than the router needs.
> - This pull request selects those keys inside PostgreSQL and preserves
their exact JSON values.
> - The benefit is less database transfer with the same reply
destination and authorization checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #17255, #17894. The first owns related chat review delivery. The
second is an independent result-projection optimization. This PR has no
dependency on another open PR. A public issue and PR search found no
duplicate change. The roadmap does not list this query optimization as
planned core work.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The server resolves the conversation that may receive a reply after one
or more task continuations.

**Current behavior**

Each hop reads agent identity, responsible user identity, and the
complete context snapshot. The snapshot can contain large prompts and
workspace data that the router never reads.

**Proposed behavior**

Select only the nine context keys that this function consumes. Preserve
missing keys, explicit JSON nulls, arrays, objects, and scalar values.
Keep non-object contexts unchanged. Keep all durable authorization
queries and the cycle-safe traversal.

**Reason and benefit**

A synthetic wide context needs 262,402 DataRow bytes before the change
and 244 after it. A valid 24-continuation lineage needs 6,560,338 bytes
before and 6,388 after it. The reduction occurs before PostgreSQL sends
the result.

**Breaking changes**

None. The public API, stored context, reply bindings, tenant checks, and
admission proofs retain their existing behavior.

## What Changed

- Project an object context through `jsonb_each` and `jsonb_object_agg`.
Retain only the nine consumed keys. Preserve all selected JSON values
and key presence.
- Keep the agent and responsible-user columns. Keep the company and run
predicates.
- Add 22 real PostgreSQL tests for routing, malformed JSON, strict
tool-action receipt comparisons, tenant boundaries, 24 valid
continuation hops, and an authorized cycle.
- Add a synthetic benchmark that loads the pinned baseline service,
captures its generated SQL, compares complete bindings and selected
columns, and measures text-format PostgreSQL DataRow frames.
- Run owned resource cleanup in nested `finally` blocks so fixture
deletion or client close failures cannot skip cluster and scratch
cleanup. Preserve the original benchmark failure alongside a cleanup
failure.

The complete consumer-key audit is:

| Context keys | Consumer |
| --- | --- |
| `issueId`, `taskId` | Task identity fence, with the existing fallback
order |
| `wakeCommentIds`, `wakeCommentId`, `commentId` | Board reply and root
comment provenance |
| `source`, `sourceRunId`, `interactionId` | Durable continuation
branches and tool-action receipt checks |
| `endpointId` | Root destination fence |

Missing `interactionId` stays absent. It does not become JSON null. This
matters because the tool-action branch compares it strictly with the
durable wake payload. The tests cover absent, null, string, number, and
object values. They also remove the delivery receipt to prove that
context alone cannot authorize a reply.

## Verification

Baseline: `3cd3af5d75f200185ed4d9703a3145594a489b13`. Treatment:
`3439ba7b714090d9f251816efec26622b3df223b`. PostgreSQL 17.11, Node
26.4.0. All data is synthetic. The benchmark holds imported helpers and
fixtures identical and loads only the baseline `issues.ts` from history.
It records generated SQL, parameters, plans, source SHA-256, and the
initial worktree state before scratch creation. The committed final
measurement reports a clean worktree and source SHA-256
`cd7e955179118fda12f6b2e981a17efff54137cbf241019785a3f8d16a7dcbb8`.

Reproduce the benchmark:

```sh
node --import ./server/node_modules/tsx/dist/loader.mjs scripts/benchmark-chat-reply-lineage.ts --baseline-ref=3cd3af5d75f200185ed4d9703a3145594a489b13
```

The default creates disposable embedded PostgreSQL.
`PAPERCLIP_CHAT_LINEAGE_BENCHMARK_DATABASE_URL` can name a dedicated
external database that ends in `_test`. The harness applies migrations
and removes its own fixture rows. It never uses an application database
by default.

Each wide run has 192 KiB of random bytes encoded as base64. This
produces a 262,144-byte incompressible body. Two warmups precede seven
timed samples. Baseline and treatment alternate order. Every scenario
returns the same complete bindings. Every retained SQL column matches
its baseline value, and the context matches the exact key projection.
The acceptance check requires removal of every unrelated synthetic body
byte.

| Scenario | Baseline DataRow bytes | Changed DataRow bytes | Baseline
SQL median ms (range) | Changed SQL median ms (range) |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| small | 282 | 244 | 0.927 (0.900–1.455) | 1.027 (0.801–1.063) |
| wide | 262,402 | 244 | 2.618 (2.440–4.831) | 1.490 (1.400–1.815) |
| wide-24-continuations | 6,560,338 | 6,388 | 87.450 (80.103–130.197) |
43.103 (38.549–52.864) |

These bytes are exact text-format DataRow frame sizes. They exclude row
descriptions, command metadata, TLS, and TCP. Timings cover the captured
lineage SQL, including all hops. They exclude the other authorization
queries. The small control is neutral and timing ranges overlap on wider
cases. An earlier loaded run had a small-control median of 1.15 ms
before and 1.33 ms after. No deployed latency or billing improvement is
claimed. The byte reduction is the primary result.

Local checks:

- `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links`: passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/chat-reply-lineage-context.test.ts`: 22 passed on
the committed rebased head.
- The existing `chat-interaction-continuation.test.ts` file: all 28
tests passed. These cover confirmation, verdict, connection, and
invalid-authority paths.
- Five selected cases in `chat-channels.integration.test.ts`: passed in
a fresh dedicated database. They cover closed-choice question delivery
and steering, Telegram confirmation, ambiguous close control, and both
fresh-after-close authorization paths.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed again after the master
rebase.
- `node scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs` and `git diff --check`:
passed.
- Cleanup repair at `3439ba7b714090d9f251816efec26622b3df223b`: all 22
focused PostgreSQL tests, the benchmark above, and server `tsc --noEmit`
passed. Six controlled cleanup-failure cases confirmed later finalizers
run; benchmark and cleanup errors remain visible together.

The unchanged baseline failed the wide-result regression: 262,383 value
bytes exceeded its 1 KiB bound. The treatment passes. Initial fixture
setup needed a required conversation label and explicit foreign-key
cleanup. The first full typecheck found a row-type mismatch in the new
capture helper; that helper was corrected. The complete typecheck then
passed. No production logic changed for those setup repairs.

A prior assembled run reused the interaction test database. Its retained
running fixtures caused a global milestone-count assertion to fail.
Later reuse exposed retained bot registration and identity state. An
attempted manual reset named a nonexistent table and did not complete.
These failed attempts are not acceptance evidence. The final five-case
assembled proof used a newly created and migrated database and passed
every assertion. No existing assertion was changed.

The full local `pnpm test:run` was not run. Focused tests used the
coordinated disposable PostgreSQL server to avoid uncontrolled
embedded-cluster concurrency on this host. The full final-head CI matrix
passes on `3439ba7b714090d9f251816efec26622b3df223b`: 55 successful
checks, one neutral check, and two optional Storybook skips. Greptile
completed at 5/5 on that exact head, with zero unresolved findings. The
existing interaction and assembled cases ran before the unrelated master
rebase; the measured service source is unchanged. Focused tests,
benchmark, full typecheck, and build passed on the rebased
production-change head. The current cleanup-only head reran focused
tests, benchmark, and server TypeScript validation; production service
source is unchanged.

## Risks

- Future lineage consumers must add any new context key to the SQL
projection and the correctness oracle.
- Selected values retain their complete JSON content. Non-object
contexts pass through unchanged. Savings depend on unrelated object data
being present.
- PostgreSQL must still read the stored object to make the projection.
The change reduces returned data, rather than removing all server-side
JSON work.
- Question delivery, tool action, connection, monitor, publication,
company, and agent proofs retain their existing owners. No hop limit,
cache, schema change, startup task, or deployment is added.
- Benchmark usage and the result contract are documented here. No public
command or API contract changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The exact runtime model ID and context
window are not exposed by this environment. Capabilities used: source
analysis, code editing, shell tools, real PostgreSQL experiments, and

DottaandPaperclip c3a9a8e92a perf(server): scope run identity reads to operation needs (#17931)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Tool and connection operations capture the current accepted
requester.
> - Capture locks the task and run, then reconciles pending steering.
> - Most callers use identity or task fields from the returned run.
> - The default query also transfers saved prompts, runner
configuration, results, and logs.
> - This pull request gives each production caller an explicit read
scope.
> - Narrow scopes keep their authority checks and return only selected
columns.
> - The Muse project path still reads its complete saved execution
input.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Operation-time run identity capture for native tools, gateway sessions,
project and workspace access, Slack, voice, connection management, and
connection token admission.

**Current behavior**

These callers use the default full run read. Large saved execution
documents cross the database connection even when the caller only needs
the current accepted requester or task binding.

**Proposed behavior**

Use typed identity, task, broker, and project-execution scopes. Keep
task-before-run locks, company and agent predicates, active status
validation, and pending-steering reconciliation. Return the complete
saved native input only where project admission uses it.

**Reason and benefit**

A synthetic PostgreSQL 17.11 fixture matches a wide run with a 142 KB
context and a 77 KB runner profile. Its locked run DataRow falls from
225,101 bytes to 190–605 bytes for authority reads. The project scope
returns 66,004 bytes because it must retain a complete 64 KB execution
input. These are local DataRow measurements, not a forecast of
production billing or latency.

**Breaking changes**

None to public APIs, saved data, or authority policy. Internal narrow
return types omit columns that were not selected. The default full
compatibility read and the existing GitHub-credential and authentication
scopes keep their current contracts.

**Additional context**

The public issue and PR duplicate searches found no matching open
change. This is one independent query optimization. It does not require
other performance PRs.

## What Changed

- Add typed scopes for accepted identity metadata, task authorization,
token attribution, and saved project execution input.
- Assign explicit scopes at all production `captureRunIdentity` call
sites.
- Keep the full native execution input for Muse project admission while
omitting unrelated profile, context, result, and log data.
- Narrow the broker's initial read and the existing Slack and
connection-management historical reads to the same required fields.
- Extend steering and acknowledgement regressions to all new scopes. Add
real PostgreSQL projection, malformed JSON, tenant and agent,
session-generation, and saved-input coverage.
- Add a service-generated SQL benchmark with exact raw DataRow
accounting, retained-field equality, plans, and alternating transaction
timings.
- Document the scope contracts and reproducible benchmark.

## Verification

- Baseline: `623f1dc289a14a699ebbe3f09b94179d38fc2ae2`.
- `vitest run server/src/__tests__/run-identity-projections.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/run-identity.test.ts`: 54 tests passed on an owned
disposable PostgreSQL 17.11 database.
- The tests retain task-before-run and audit foreign-key lock behavior.
Every scope rejects uncertain steering, accepts its durable
acknowledgement, and preserves requester replay ordering.
- A full-row mutation makes the narrow identity regression fail. The
restored treatment passes.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx
../scripts/benchmark-run-identity-projections.ts
--baseline-ref=623f1dc289a14a699ebbe3f09b94179d38fc2ae2` captures the
real locked SQL for both versions.
- Every retained column and selected JSON field matches the baseline.
Identity contexts match. The complete stored run remains unchanged.
Capture keeps the same five queries.

| Scope | Before DataRow bytes | After DataRow bytes | Reduction |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Identity | 225,101 | 190 | 99.92% |
| Task authorization | 225,101 | 410 | 99.82% |
| Token broker | 225,101 | 605 | 99.73% |
| Project execution input | 225,101 | 66,004 | 70.68% |

- DataRow bytes include row framing and raw text-format column values.
They exclude response metadata, TLS, and TCP.
- Two warmups and seven alternating samples measure the complete capture
transaction. Several timing ranges overlap. The primary claim is byte
reduction; production latency is not verified.
- Initial fixture runs exposed an empty external schema and an
incomplete synthetic conversation binding. The test setup now applies
migrations and supplies the required user/state fields. The final 54
tests passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed locally.
- Four existing skill-setup tests passed. Four assembled
connection-management/native-tool consumer cases passed with real
JWT/API-key authentication. These include per-request identity freshness
and task-scoped activity authority.
- A CI-only stale mock assertion expected two capture arguments; it now
verifies the explicit identity scope. A repository-wide capture mock
audit found no other stale argument assertions.
- Review follow-up: the projection suite uses the existing
embedded-support guard while always enabling an explicitly supplied
external database. The audit-lock regression merges URL query parameters
and retains existing PostgreSQL options.
- `vitest run server/src/__tests__/run-identity-projections.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/run-identity.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/project-skill-setup-identity.test.ts`: 123 tests
passed. The external PostgreSQL URL included both `application_name` and
`options`; lock tests verified `lock_timeout=1s` and retained
`statement_timeout=5s`.
- Full local tests are not run because the host's embedded PostgreSQL
setup is unavailable. Greptile reviewed
`06e1dd53a3fb24df74d5fbfb2ad397f291f1e30f` at 5/5 with zero unresolved
threads. The full final-head CI matrix passes. All 58 checks are
terminal: 55 success, one neutral, and two optional Storybook skips.
- No migration, lockfile, workflow, new polling, or cache change.

## Risks

A narrow read must retain each caller's actual fields. The caller audit
includes Slack's wake-request fallback, conversation generation, legacy
broker attribution, and the Muse parser's complete native input. JSON
selection retains value types, including malformed legacy values. The
saved-input scope preserves missing-key behavior. The default full read
still returns the complete stored row for compatibility. Locks and live
authority checks are unchanged.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6, accessed through Codex. The exact runtime model ID and
context-window size were not exposed in this session. Used repository
inspection, code execution, and PostgreSQL validation.

DottaandPaperclip 77295faebc fix(server): recover approved tool actions from committed changes (#17454)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agent work and its governed tool calls.
> - A human approval can persist before the approving process dispatches
the tool.
> - Recovery currently scans approved requests on every maintenance
tick.
> - Completed and deliberately inert approvals do not owe another
execution.
> - Test-tab approval also needs a shared execution claim before
recovery can safely race the foreground path.
> - This PR wakes recovery from committed changes and retries only
unresolved approvals.
> - Idle history becomes quiet while existing approval and execution
checks remain with the gateway.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17453. This is the fifth slice of the recurring-server sleep
migration, stacked on `codex/sleep-04-tool-review-expiry`.

**Problem**
Approved tool requests are scanned periodically even when no executable
work remains. The Test-tab foreground path lacks the request claim
needed to admit concurrent recovery safely.

**Proposed Solution**
Use the existing transaction-aware review notification boundary and
shared deadline worker. Keep signed-payload interpretation, current
policy and target checks, and provider dispatch in the gateway. Share a
claim between Test-tab foreground and recovery, then persist both
authoritative outcome rows atomically.

**Alternatives Considered**
A longer interval still scans idle history. A new durable queue would
duplicate existing request/invocation state. Dispatching Test-tab
approvals without a claim risks duplicate external calls.

## What Changed

- Recheck both principals for delegated Test-tab approvals. Save their
rate receipts in the same claim transaction, share only the same bucket,
and roll back new charges on denial.

- Preserve delegated gateway authorization and both issuer/target rate
receipts inside the existing claimed-invocation transaction; retain the
durable actor during approved replay.

- Expire stale managed connector payloads before consuming approved-tool
admission.

- Persist current rate-policy charges and their invocation receipts
atomically before dispatch, preserving exact approval claim fencing and
read-only preflight.

- Recover approved requests at startup and after committed review
changes; retry only unresolved approvals.
- Leave legacy agent approvals without execute-on-approve intent inert.
Repair completed Test-tab history without another provider call.
- Fence Test-tab execution and outcome settlement with an atomic claim
shared by both callers. Revalidate the approved target and current
policy before dispatch.
- Keep provider calls outside database transactions. Retain quarantine
for interrupted execution and unknown outcomes.
- Add a concurrent, idempotent partial index for approved-request
pagination. Reuse the parent's company-scoped review signals and shared
scoped deadline worker.
- Remove approved scanning from the aggregate tick. Preserve the public
combined sweep and scheduler-disabled startup behavior.
- Document producer ownership, quiet states, lifecycle behavior, and
remaining recovery duties.

## Verification

Latest published head: `23868c1751c100a27f58087f7ce16b93c52d4eba`,
targeting master. The review-found delegated gateway pool deadlock is
repaired by passing the admission transaction through token and
issuer-authority reads. Foreground and recovery each reproduced the
deadlock with a one-connection pool; all three constrained-pool cases,
including revoked authority, now pass. All 81 HTTP integration cases
pass. The historical foreground rate-slot regression also reproduced
before its repair; verified preview hashes are accepted only by
read-only preflight, while consuming admission still requires the
complete identity under the exact claim. Five full suites passed 329
cases; the gateway service then passed all 141 cases after two
additional mixed historical hash controls. Production types/build passed
before the final normal integration of master `35820cf398` (including
independent Grok/Runner changes); integration validation is running.
Initial fixture/assertion errors and the prior E2E
restoration/cancellation deadlock remain recorded in [the owning
audit](doc/idle-approved-tool-recovery.md#gateway-admission-uses-its-transaction-connection).
Fresh-head CI, Greptile 5/5, and passing Ponytail are still required
before merge.


- Master landing reconciliation at
`8dfe3958db6e4e8a0b7499f3f5be0a396ca77361` after #17453 merged:
production and server test files are byte-identical to the accepted
320-case repair. The landed migration journal prefix is unchanged, and
#17928's independent eval reporting changes are preserved. Fresh CI and
reviews on this exact head are required before merge.

- Historical-identity repair published at
`096b7c7198c3ca864aca9377e261cbaa0a8aad6f` (production/test source
identical to integrated acceptance
`81231824d773a79fc50c835eccf7d9b3977e79fc`): all 320 accepted gateway,
policy, startup, preparation-timing and authenticated HTTP management
cases pass. Server types and the production server build pass. Four real
historical sensitive-argument regressions failed before repair;
invalid-signature, foreign-hash and stale-claim controls remain denied
without dispatch or identity changes. Both agent and Test-tab calls
deliver the original signed arguments once, and new rate policies still
apply.
- The first integrated combined run passed 319 cases and hit a Slack bot
ownership collision left in a reused HTTP test database. The guard
correctly returned 409. The full 78-case HTTP suite passed on a fresh
dedicated fixture without product or assertion changes. Earlier
fixture-construction errors are distinguished from the four real
regressions in the audit document. Fresh remote CI and reviews remain
required.

- Parent reconciliation at `736e7f56097055e21ce13b4e45d9033391483af8`:
299 cases pass (221 full gateway/policy/startup cases and 78
assembled-server connection management cases), with no skipped cases.
Server types pass. This includes real delegated Test-tab approval
admission for newly added shared and caller rate rules. Fresh remote CI
and Greptile review remain required.

Approved delegated Test-tab calls now evaluate caller and target
policies in the existing claim transaction. Real HTTP regressions first
showed a missing caller charge and shared-limit self-rejection. All 78
connection-management cases and 92 gateway cases now pass on the owning
branch, along with server production typechecking. All 78
connection-management cases also pass at combined tip
`d25f830db89c1623bff3547bfc68015c1c66e0cf`. The three new cases cover
shared charges, separate charges, rollback on denial, duplicate
approval, and rejection of a later authorized call. Intermediate
counter/identity fixture failures and a reused-database Slack collision
are recorded in [the owning
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/bcca5b006976a471f4afd1f70c4031aa40a2b3f7/doc/idle-approved-tool-recovery.md#delegated-test-tab-admission-after-policy-changes).
The earlier combined checks below remain evidence for their stated
revisions. Current-head CI and review remain required.

Current head: `bcca5b006976a471f4afd1f70c4031aa40a2b3f7`. This remains a
single-duty PR stacked on #17453.

- Integrated pinned master `8548173fc9efdc0fa07644fb92dcc0b6851a95e5`
with normal merges. Every branch passed generated-schema checks and its
target-branch migration-order gate. Existing SQL is unchanged; the 25
stack migrations follow master’s new migration.
- Duty-specific producer coverage, lifecycle tests, and earlier failure
records:
[2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/a021467f04d22be42ee5b0c87b6583b2300a62a9/doc/plans/2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md).
- Combined tip `51e6cbe67979b55b340ea9f0f434c5b5c682ccd6`: **355
startup/cancellation/recovery/dispatch/preservation tests**, **75
connection-management tests**, and production server typechecking pass.
These combined checks do not mean every intermediate PR independently
ran the full repository suite.
- Real master-to-stack database upgrade passes: **379 unchanged prior
migration receipts plus 25 new migrations**, with the gateway
responsibility fixture preserved.
- Owning-branch checks: 84 runner installation/settlement cases plus
runner typechecking and generated TypeScript/Rust profile agreement; 253
GitHub review workflow cases. Stop-attribution and held-worker readiness
regressions failed before their fixes.
- Failure accounting: the initial combined run passed 349 cases and
failed six idle assertions in a reused preservation database containing
old cancelled runs. Repeating the combined command with a fresh
preservation database passed. Earlier invalid project selection, merge
import/type errors, and the interrupted full local suite are not counted
as passing checks.
- **Latest-head CI and review remain required.** Prior CI findings
include GitHub idle observation, route teardown, attention cleanup,
touch-picker E2E, workspace health, and voice-cleanup timing; local
passes do not erase those failures. No full local repository-suite,
deployed sleep, fleet cost, or live Copilot qualification claim is made.

## Risks

- Notifications cover the existing database-owner, single-active-writer
contract. Independent SQL writers and other replicas need an explicit
wake path.
- Unknown provider outcomes cannot be replayed safely. Failed result
persistence retains an executing claim and the existing stale-execution
quarantine.
- Interrupted execution and terminal interaction projection repair
remain periodic until their separate slices. This PR changes only
approved recovery.
- A pending-only review write can trigger one empty approved-recovery
pass. Settled idle work schedules no further scan.
- The partial index uses the existing top-level concurrent migration
executor. Snapshot pruning follows repository policy.
- Cloud sleep eligibility and external alarm coverage remain unchanged.
Worker quiet is not proof of deployed instance suspension.

DottaandPaperclip 6e5b9794d6 perf(github): avoid duplicate webhook body reads (#17894)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - GitHub webhooks enter a durable action queue before the worker
processes them.
> - A worker must check retry eligibility and win an atomic claim before
it replays a delivery.
> - The current eligibility read returns the complete webhook body, and
the successful claim returns it again.
> - This pull request reads small eligibility fields first and returns
the body only to the successful claimant.
> - The worker keeps its retry, ownership, runtime, credential, and
recovery checks.
> - The benefit is less database transfer without removing durable
replay data.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #17666, #15981. Those changes own the existing recovery scheduler
and ingress module. This PR changes the result projections and
validation order within that module. It has no dependency on another
open PR. A public issue and PR search found no duplicate change.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The durable GitHub webhook worker reads action eligibility and replays
claimed deliveries.

**Current behavior**

The first read returns all action columns and the complete webhook body.
A successful claim returns them again. An active claim or future retry
also downloads a body that this worker cannot process.

**Proposed behavior**

Read only ID, status, result, and update time for eligibility. Return
ID, endpoint ID, and payload from the successful atomic claim. Validate
that claimed payload before replay.

**Reason and benefit**

A synthetic 131,105-byte webhook body produces about 263 KB of response
values before this change. The changed service returns about 132 KB for
successful processing and fewer than 150 bytes for skipped work. This
removes duplicate body transfer.

**Breaking changes**

There is no public API or schema change. Malformed active or delayed
rows now remain under their current claim or retry deadline. The
eligible claimant validates and fails them later. A worker that does not
own the claim can no longer clear their payload.

## What Changed

- Use a small projection for initial action eligibility.
- Return the replay body only from a successful claim. Keep the existing
status, stale-time, and previous-attempt guards.
- Validate the row returned by the claim. Fence invalid-payload
settlement by kind, processing status, and the claimed attempt.
- Add 19 real PostgreSQL regressions for complete replay bodies, skipped
work, retries, stale-claim recovery, contention, corrupt bodies, claim
loss, replacement bodies, and payload retention.
- Wait for the saved chat authentication link in one existing async UI
test. Keep its exact destination and all other assertions. This repairs
a second independent CI test failure without changing product UI.
- Accept the two precise invalid-repository diagnostics from Git 2.55
and 2.56 in one existing test. This repairs an independent CI
compatibility failure. It changes no Git expiration service behavior.
- Add a reproducible benchmark that loads the real baseline service from
an explicit commit. It captures generated SQL and parameters, query
plans, response-value estimates, timings, and complete valid-work
behavior comparisons.

## Verification

- Baseline: `663fe667d66d3863d0919a8724f1d99500feef0b`.
- PostgreSQL 17.11, Node 24.22.1. The fixture uses synthetic random body
content. No hosted database or provider was changed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/chat-channels/github/webhook-ingress.test.ts`: 19
passed with a dedicated disposable PostgreSQL database.
- Existing assembled GitHub tests: recovery from pre-ingress failure,
scheduler retry and restart, exact terminal redelivery, runtime
pause/resume, recovery tombstones, and credential rotation passed.
- `node scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs` and `git diff --check`:
passed.
- Benchmark: `node --import ./server/node_modules/tsx/dist/loader.mjs
scripts/benchmark-github-webhook-ingress.ts
--baseline-ref=663fe667d66d3863d0919a8724f1d99500feef0b`. The default
uses disposable embedded PostgreSQL. `PAPERCLIP_TEST_DATABASE_URL` can
select a dedicated migrated test database with a name that ends in
`_test`.
- Ten timed samples after two warmups, with alternating
baseline/treatment order. The main acceptance criterion is response
size, rather than a timing threshold. The 0.51 ratio bound is
deterministic for this fixed synthetic fixture; it is not a promise for
arbitrary webhook bodies or result metadata sizes. Focused tests measure
the body transfer reduction directly. Actual wire savings require
post-rollout measurement.

| Scenario | Baseline response-value bytes | Changed response-value
bytes |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Received | 263,276 | 131,547 |
| Due retry | 263,342 | 131,613 |
| Stale processing | 263,291 | 131,563 |
| Future retry | 131,692 | 136 |
| Active processing | 131,642 | 86 |
| Processed | 131,659 | 103 |

The benchmark compares response status/body, all stable durable action
fields, and the replay body, signature, delivery ID, and provider
routing. All six valid scenarios match. It excludes generated row IDs
and timestamps. The final measurement records treatment commit
`f1ad8ce838700237b56f895cc61a9c6ed0850cd6`, an empty initial worktree
status, and the SHA-256 of the actual source. It ran from the server
directory to verify that Git paths resolve from the repository root.
Local timing ranges overlap and vary with host load. An earlier loaded
repeat had a due-retry median of 19.61 ms before and 22.58 ms after, so
no consistent latency gain is claimed. The byte reduction is the
verified result. Response-value estimates exclude PostgreSQL
protocol/TLS overhead and JSONB whitespace. These are local
measurements, not a claim about deployed latency or a monthly bill.

`pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed on production-change commit
`6f4f36bff525494dadda30b49ea6a9a33976e1ab`. Greptile completed with 5/5
and no review threads on that commit. Commit
`2abf9b1e50c568b632e7568398a5826a6122e456` changes only the Git test
matcher. Commit `f1ad8ce838700237b56f895cc61a9c6ed0850cd6` fixes
benchmark provenance after automated review. Commit
`ee2a96dad549c72da3132d2b93fd11eb1c45bc31` repairs an existing async UI
test. Final commit `994d398d12be65f595b305d1c2f8a61b9d587ff9` extends
real PostgreSQL contention coverage after review. Full CI completed
successfully on that final head: [workflow run
40537698349](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40537698349).
All 55 successful checks, one neutral review, and two optional skipped
checks are terminal; none are pending or failing. Fresh Greptile and
Paperclip reviews are both 5/5, with zero unresolved review threads. The
production source SHA-256 remains
`402f9c66cd030c9ded9f39a3bc72d26c56627752c0950b102adcab15c4512df3`, so
the production proof is unchanged. The full local `pnpm test:run` was
not completed because this host exhausted embedded PostgreSQL semaphore
resources; the focused real PostgreSQL tests used a private disposable
container. Current-head remote CI passed the full suite. A direct server
typecheck before runner preparation reported missing runner build
outputs; supported preparation and the full typecheck then passed. The
first complete build found a partial local Copilot closure from the
dependency cache. The complete pinned closure was restored and verified,
then the complete build passed. The first local test run also found a
fixture teardown order error; the teardown was corrected, then all 17
tests passed. Frozen dependency installation failed on the existing
master patch metadata. Independent cached dependency directories were
cloned, their workspace links were checked, and no dependency manifest
or lockfile was changed.

The first CI server4 shard failed one existing Git expiration test: Git
2.56 reported `gitfile does not point to a valid repository`, while the
test expected the Git 2.55 phrase `not a git repository`. The service
returned the correct `inspection_failed` result and preserved the
workspace. Separate test-only commit
`2abf9b1e50c568b632e7568398a5826a9c6ed0850cd6` accepts either precise
diagnostic. The affected assembled test passed locally with real
PostgreSQL 17.11 and Git 2.55; the captured CI diagnostic also matches,
and unrelated permission errors do not. This was a compatibility
failure, not a transient failure or an unchanged rerun.

Paperclip Review found that the benchmark recorded its own scratch
directory as an uncommitted change. The final benchmark-only repair
captures repository status before scratch creation, runs Git commands
from the repository root, records the source hash before measurement,
and rejects source edits during measurement. A full benchmark run from
the server directory then reported clean provenance and passed all six
byte/behavior comparisons. The review thread was marked addressed after
this proof.

The next full CI run found a separate unchanged UI test failure in
`ConnectionIntentInteractionBody.test.tsx`: the saved authentication
link was still absent after one fixed flush. The same failure reproduced
locally: one failed and 50 passed. Separate test-only commit
`ee2a96dad549c72da3132d2b93fd11eb1c45bc31` uses the existing bounded
`waitForAssertion` helper around the identical destination assertion.
The whole file then passed all 51 tests, and UI token gates passed. The
no-extra-setup and no-automatic-completion assertions remain. No UI
runtime or timeout changed.

Paperclip Review also asked for parallel claims from stale-processing
and due-failed rows. The contention test now covers those states and
received rows. Each case holds the claims until all 12 workers have read
the same eligible attempt, then uses real PostgreSQL to assert one
replay and exactly one attempt increment. The whole focused suite passed
all 19 tests. This coverage change does not modify production code or
the measured queries. The review thread was marked addressed after this
proof.

## Risks

- Payload validation now follows claim commit. If the process stops
there, the existing stale-claim recovery path retains the body and
retries it. Tests cover fresh and stale processing rows.
- A malformed future retry now fails when due instead of being cleared
by an unrelated early worker. The claimed-attempt guard prevents invalid
settlement from overwriting a later claim. Terminal invalid-payload
settlement intentionally retains the baseline result shape (`code` and
`retryable: false`, without `attempts`). Changing that result contract
is outside this byte reduction; the non-retryable row cannot become due
again.
- Existing runtime-generation, credential, recovery-source,
replay-barrier, redaction, and retry checks remain in place. Existing
assembled tests cover these boundaries.
- There is no migration, startup job, dependency change, or deployment
in this PR.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The exact runtime model ID and context
window are not exposed by this environment. Capabilities used: source
analysis, code editing, shell tools, PostgreSQL experiments, and
automated tests.

DottaandPaperclip 7a0c9c23cf perf(github): reduce inherited review-wait transfer (#17893)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - GitHub review tasks can retain a passive wait after a review is
published.
> - The wait check reads current requester, task, agent, repository, and
publication bindings.
> - It also transfers the complete assessment for one commit comparison.
> - Large review summaries and findings add repeated database transfer.
> - This pull request selects only the typed reviewed commit value.
> - The wait keeps its existing checks and transfers less data.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The inherited GitHub review-wait check in the server.

**Current behavior**

The joined query selects the complete assessment JSON. The caller uses
only `assessment.reviewedCommit`.

**Proposed behavior**

Select `assessment->'reviewedCommit'`. Keep its JSON type and the strict
comparison with the head SHA. Keep all joins, filters, ordering, and
publication checks.

**Reason and benefit**

The synthetic PostgreSQL 17 fixture reduces one result DataRow from
6,874 bytes to 423 bytes (93.85%). This measurement excludes response
metadata, TLS, and TCP. It does not predict a monthly bill or deployed
savings.

**Breaking changes**

None. No public API, stored data, schema, or execution policy changes.

**Additional context**

Related work: #17562 narrowed a different external-review candidate
query. This PR changes the inherited published-review lookup. The
duplicate search found no matching open change.

## What Changed

- Select the commit as JSON, rather than text, to preserve strict
comparison for legacy numeric, object, array, missing, and null values.
- Add real PostgreSQL regressions for narrow responses, unchanged stored
assessments, revocation, tenant and agent bindings, and a newer queued
head.
- Add a synthetic benchmark that captures the real baseline and
treatment SQL, compares outputs, and measures raw DataRow bytes.
- Document the read contract and benchmark command.

## Verification

- Baseline: `663fe667d66d3863d0919a8724f1d99500feef0b`.
- `vitest run server/src/__tests__/github-review-wait.test.ts`: 14 tests
passed on disposable PostgreSQL 17.11.
- Restoring the baseline query makes the response-size regression fail:
8,823 column-value bytes exceed the 1,000-byte bound. Restoring
treatment passes.
- Benchmark: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsx
../scripts/benchmark-github-review-wait.ts
--baseline-ref=663fe667d66d3863d0919a8724f1d99500feef0b`.
- The benchmark compares every unchanged SQL column and full service
output. It also compares 15 JSON cases and live connection revocation.
- Two warmups and seven alternating samples had overlapping latency
ranges. No latency improvement is claimed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed locally.
- Twenty existing published-review consumer regressions passed on
PostgreSQL 17.11. These cover continued review, a newer head,
publication state, and a connection-disable race at final commit.
- Final-head focused tests passed again after the benchmark-only review
fix.
- Final benchmark treatment: `d94410a6e6bb83e727afdf09cff450a91a89edd6`,
with an empty source diff. DataRow bytes remained 6,874 to 423. Warm
medians were 3.11 ms before and 3.43 ms after, with overlapping ranges.
This proves byte reduction, not a latency improvement.
- A provenance check with one staged and one unstaged source edit
confirmed that the benchmark records both from the documented server
working directory. Those temporary edits were removed.
- All final-head CI checks passed for
`d94410a6e6bb83e727afdf09cff450a91a89edd6`. Greptile scored this exact
commit 5/5. There are zero unresolved review threads or recommendations.
The independent Paperclip review also scored this commit 5/5.
- The first local embedded PostgreSQL attempt failed before assertions
because the host exhausted System V semaphores. A direct `initdb`
reproduced `could not create semaphores: No space left on device`. The
passing focused proof used an owned disposable Docker PostgreSQL 17
container. `pnpm test:run` was not completed locally because of that
host limit. The full final-head CI suite passed.
- The final CI aggregate briefly reported `in_progress` after all of its
steps and the workflow had completed successfully. One rerun of only
that aggregate produced a terminal success. The test matrix was not
rerun.
- The initial frozen install hit the existing upstream patch/lock
configuration mismatch. A cached non-frozen local install succeeded. The
generated lock change is excluded from this PR.

## Risks

The selected commit must retain its JSON type. Using `->>` could turn
numeric `1` into text and accept a malformed assessment against head
`1`. The regression covers this case. The complete assessment remains
available for actual review and publication. Existing fresh authority
checks remain in place. No migration is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6, accessed through Codex. The exact runtime model ID and
context-window size were not exposed in this session. Used repository
inspection, code execution, and PostgreSQL validation.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

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

**Problem or motivation**

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

**Proposed solution**

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

**Roadmap alignment**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

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

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

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

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

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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