Devin FoleyandPaperclip 74b11014c6 fix(server): stop a queued answer from blocking saved-work recovery (#19318)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A native run can accept its result before the workspace copy-back
finishes. If a server restart interrupts the copy-back, the run keeps an
owner receipt for the server that stopped.
> - Another server takes over only after the cloud platform proves that
the old deployment stopped. After that proof, recovery checks that the
task has not moved on, so old files never overwrite newer work.
> - That check counted any queued run on the task as newer work.
> - The user's answer to the run's question queues the assignee's next
wake. That wake cannot claim while the saved run holds the task's
execution lock, so it waits for the copy-back.
> - Recovery waited for the wake and the wake waited for recovery. The
task stayed stuck, and nothing was logged.
> - This pull request ignores a later wake for the same assignee that
has never started, and logs waits that the worker stops retrying.
> - The benefit is that answering a question during an interrupted
copy-back no longer strands the task. Every other newer-work check still
applies.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15824 (added platform-verified takeover and these binding checks)
and #19111 (worker concurrency and ordering for the same copy-backs).
This pull request keeps the rest of #15824's fence unchanged.

**What happened?**

On a hosted instance, a server restart interrupted a copy-back after the
worker had written its owner receipt. The run had asked the user a
question, and the user answered. The answer's wake was queued. Every
later server got a valid stop proof for the old deployment and then got
`binding_changed` from the shared binding check: the only failing
condition was the queued answer wake. The worker treats
`binding_changed` as a final wait and returns without logging. The run
stayed `running` and the wake stayed `queued` for about 19 hours, across
many restarts.

**Expected behavior**

A wake that is waiting for the saved run does not stop the saved run's
recovery. Runs that could change the workspace still prevent takeover,
and the publication check still stops a copy-back if such a run appears.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Accept a native result and leave a copy-back owner receipt from a
stopped deployment.
2. Queue the assignee's next wake on the same task, for example by
answering the run's question.
3. Let the reconciler or the workspace worker revisit the saved result
with a verified stop proof. On `master` the takeover returns
`binding_changed` and nothing is copied or committed.

The new database tests run these steps against PostgreSQL.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at `03eb49053fe`.

**Deployment mode**

Cloud-managed instances with platform stop verification. The same
binding check also guards operator owner recovery, so self-hosted
operator recovery had the same deadlock.

## What Changed

-
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-workspace-recovery-binding.ts`:
the newer-run check ignores a run when all of these hold:
  - It is `queued` and has never started (`startedAt` is null).
- It belongs to the run's agent, and that agent is the task's assignee.
  - It was created after the saved run.
  - Its wake reason is not `source_scoped_recovery_action`.

The run claim blocks such a run while the saved run holds the issue's
execution lock (`lockIssueExecutionClaim` in `heartbeat/queue.ts`). Runs
that have started, other agents' runs, recovery-action wakes and older
queued runs still prevent takeover.
-
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-workspace-finalization-work.ts`:
log `runId` and `reason` when the worker stops retrying a wait
(`binding_changed`, `owner_unverified`). It does not log `owner_active`.
- `doc/native-workspace-finalization-recovery.md`: describe the
waiting-wake rule in the shared binding section.
-
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-workspace-queued-wake-recovery.test.ts`
(new): the queued-wake tests, with a small fixture of their own. They
are in a separate file so `native-workspace-finalizer.test.ts` stays
under 1,000 lines.

## Verification

- Failing first. These tests in
`native-workspace-queued-wake-recovery.test.ts` fail against the
original check and pass with this change:
  - Operator owner recovery with an answer wake queued.
  - Automatic takeover with the wake still queued.
- Automatic takeover where the wake starts during copy-back. On `master`
takeover is refused before this point; with the change, publication is
stopped.
- The real reconciler, from `retryable_failure`, with a
stopped-deployment owner and a queued answer wake. It now copies once,
commits the saved result and leaves the wake queued with its claim no
longer blocked.
- The fence is kept: three new cases (a requeued wake that already
started, a recovery-action wake, another agent's queued run) still get
`binding_changed`. They pass both before and after the change.
- Changed test: "does not reopen an old result after a newer task
execution exists" now inserts a started run instead of a never-started
queued run of the same assignee. The queued case is now the new
operator-recovery test above.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-workspace-queued-wake-recovery.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-workspace-finalizer.test.ts`: 2
files, 72 passed. With the original binding file restored, the 4
positive queued-wake tests failed and the 3 fenced cases passed.
- Related suites (finalization work, platform proof, export retry,
finalizer failure, recovery actions, owner-recovery routes, status
reassessment, scoped deadline work): 8 files, 499 passed.
- After rebasing onto `03eb49053fe`: finalizer and finalization-work
suites, 97 passed.
- `cd server && npx tsc --noEmit -p tsconfig.json`: pass.
- Not verified on a live instance yet. The diagnosis comes from that
instance's run, finalization, workspace-operation and recovery-action
rows, plus a direct stop-proof request that returned a valid receipt.

## Risks

- A copy-back can now finish while the assignee's wake is queued. The
same-process retry path already does this, because it does not run the
binding check. The takeover path now matches it for wakes that cannot
start yet.
- If some path starts such a wake despite the execution lock,
`assertHeld` sees a running newer run and stops before publication. The
window between that check and the write is the same as for the other
binding conditions.
- No schema migration.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`) through Claude Code, with tool use
(shell, file edits, test runs, read-only database and log queries). The
runtime does not expose the context window or reasoning configuration.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 895cee28b3 fix(daytona): recover an errored sandbox before stop-only cleanup (#19178)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Remote agent runs use sandbox provider plugins. Daytona is one of
them.
> - After a failed run, Paperclip stops the sandbox and keeps its files
("stop-only cleanup"). A task can continue only when every remote lease
of the failed run has a provider stop receipt.
> - Daytona rejects Stop for a sandbox in its `error` state. A sandbox
that filled its disk went to that state. The plugin called Stop on it,
so every cleanup sweep failed with the same generic error.
> - The lease stayed in pending cleanup without a stop receipt. Each
Retry or comment waited forever with reason `remote_cleanup`. A manual
Daytona Recover was the only fix.
> - This pull request makes the Daytona stop-only hook recover a
recoverable sandbox once, with a bound, and then stop it. When it cannot
stop the sandbox, it returns a typed failure. The server escalates a
terminal failure at once instead of retrying it like a transient error.
> - The benefit is that a full-disk sandbox no longer blocks its task,
and a sandbox that cannot recover is visible to operators on the first
attempt.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. Bug description:

**What happened?**

A task sandbox filled its 10 GB disk. Daytona then reported the sandbox
as `state: error`, `desiredState: started` and `recoverable: true`. Its
`errorReason` was a Docker `no space left on device` error. The Daytona
`stopLease` hook calls Stop on any sandbox that is not `stopped` or
`archived`. Daytona rejects Stop in the `error` state. The pending
cleanup sweep ran about every 30 minutes, and it failed on every pass.
The lease stayed `pending_cleanup` with `cleanup_status=failed` and no
stop receipt. Continuation admission
(`server/src/services/explicit-native-continuation.ts`) requires a stop
receipt on every remote lease of the failed run. So each Retry and
comment was deferred with "Waiting for the previous environment to stop.
Your message will start automatically." It never started.

A manual Daytona `POST /api/sandbox/{id}/recover` fixed it. The
sandboxes reached `started` in about one minute. The next sweep stopped
them, recorded the receipt, and the tasks continued.

**Expected behavior**

Stop-only cleanup recovers a recoverable errored sandbox and then stops
it. When the sandbox cannot be recovered, cleanup returns a clear, typed
failure that the server can tell apart from a transient error. Cleanup
never deletes the retained sandbox, and it never loops on Recover.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a task in a Daytona sandbox until the sandbox fills its disk and
Daytona shows `state: error`, `recoverable: true`.
2. Let the run fail, so the server records a `sandboxStopAndRetain`
intent and calls `environmentStopLease`.
3. Before this change, Stop fails with `Sandbox failed to stop with
status: error` on every sweep, and the task cannot continue.
4. The new tests in `plugin.test.ts` reproduce this with a mock sandbox
whose Stop fails from `error`.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Observed on a hosted deployment. Reproduced in unit tests on `master` at
`6452e964a36`.

**Deployment mode**

Managed Daytona sandbox execution with plugin-backed stop-only cleanup.

Related: #18172 (Daytona exports under disk pressure) and #19050
(session reset on every Daytona restart path). This PR does not change
the resume path in `ensureSandboxStarted`, which already recovers a
recoverable sandbox.

## What Changed

- **Daytona plugin
(`packages/plugins/sandbox-providers/daytona/src/plugin.ts`)**: after
`stopLease` confirms the retention policy, a sandbox in `error` goes
through `recoverSandboxForStop`.
- Recoverable: the hook calls `sandbox.recover()` once. The SDK waits
for `started`. The plugin bounds the wait to 20 s, plus the existing
liveness margin for a hung connection. Then the hook stops the sandbox
normally and returns the usual `stopped` receipt.
- Not recoverable: the hook makes no Recover or Stop call. It throws
`PluginEnvironmentStopError("resource_unrecoverable")`.
- Recover fails: the hook reads the provider state once. A sandbox back
in `error` gives `recovery_failed`, or `resource_unrecoverable` if
Daytona now marks it so. A sandbox that is still starting, or a failed
read, gives `recovery_incomplete`.
- The recovered sandbox fails again before Stop finishes (for example,
the disk fills again): a fresh read that shows `error` gives
`recovery_failed`. The hook never calls Recover a second time in the
same call.
- The hook never deletes or archives the sandbox. The non-error stop
path is unchanged.
- **Plugin SDK (`packages/plugins/sdk/src/environment-stop-error.ts`,
new)**: `PluginEnvironmentStopError`, `environmentStopErrorData` and
`readEnvironmentStopFailure`. This follows the existing
`PluginEnvironmentRunnerIngressError` pattern. The envelope holds only
one closed reason. The reader validates the reason and derives
`terminal` from it. `resource_unrecoverable` and `recovery_failed` are
terminal. `recovery_incomplete` is not.
- **Worker RPC host (`packages/plugins/sdk/src/worker-rpc-host.ts`)**:
forwards that envelope as JSON-RPC error `data` for
`environmentStopLease` only.
- **Pending cleanup sweep
(`server/src/services/heartbeat/recovery.ts`)**: the catch reads the
validated envelope.
- On a terminal failure, it escalates on the first attempt. It writes
the one-time "needs operator attention" warning and uses the existing 30
minute retry interval. Before, this happened only at the fifth attempt.
- The failure log uses `errorKind: "provider_stop_terminal"` and
includes the closed `providerStopFailure` reason. The sweep still never
logs exception fields.
- The lease stays `pending_cleanup`. Automatic cleanup continues, and an
explicit Retry still bypasses the cooldown. Untyped and transient
failures keep their current behavior.
- **Docs**: the SDK README ("Stop failures"), the Daytona README,
`doc/plugins/SANDBOX_PROVIDER_CAPABILITIES.md` and
`doc/native-workspace-finalization-recovery.md` describe the new
behavior.

Shared contract note (module boundaries): the SDK envelope is the
smallest addition that lets the host tell a terminal provider stop
failure from a transient one. The worker host drops all other error data
across the RPC boundary, so the existing contracts cannot carry the
signal. The only consumer is the pending cleanup sweep. When a provider
does not throw the new error, or an older host ignores it, behavior is
unchanged. This PR does not touch
`server/src/services/workspace-recovery.ts` or
`sandbox-stop-and-retain.ts`.

## Verification

All commands ran in a clean worktree from `master`. Vitest ran from the
real path.

- Red on `master` (only the new tests added):
- Daytona, with `plugin.ts` from `master`: `npx vitest run --config
vitest.config.ts src/plugin.test.ts -t "provider error state"` exits 1.
All 7 new tests fail. The main case fails with `Sandbox failed to stop
with status: error`, which is the production error.
- SDK, with `worker-rpc-host.ts` from `master`: `npx vitest run
tests/worker-rpc-host.test.ts -t "typed stop failure"` exits 1 (the
typed case fails).
- Server, with `recovery.ts` from `master`: `npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep.test.ts -t "terminal
provider stop failure"` exits 1. All 3 cases fail (`errorKind:
"destroy_failed"`, no escalation).
- Green on this branch:
- `packages/plugins/sandbox-providers/daytona`: `npx vitest run --config
vitest.config.ts` exits 0 (534 passed, 26 skipped live tests). `pnpm
typecheck` exits 0. `pnpm build` exits 0.
- `packages/plugins/sdk`: `npx vitest run` exits 0 (222 passed). `pnpm
--filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk typecheck` exits 0.
- `server`: 15 related suites exit 0 (1498 passed): pending cleanup
sweep, `heartbeat/recovery`, environment runtime, environment cleanup
work, native startup cleanup, native remote failure retention, observed
workspace preservation, retained native session cleanup, idle sleep
safety, explicit native continuation, task retry, workspace recovery,
native failed and cancelled workspace preservation, and Daytona close in
the plugin worker manager.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` exits 0. `pnpm
check:module-boundaries` exits 0.
- New tests:
- Daytona: a recoverable errored sandbox is recovered once
(`recover(20)`) after the retention check and before Stop, then stopped.
An unrecoverable one returns `resource_unrecoverable` with no Recover,
Stop, start, delete or archive call. A failed recovery makes exactly one
Recover call for each outcome (`recovery_failed`,
`resource_unrecoverable`, `recovery_incomplete`). A Recover call that
never settles is cut off by the bound. A recovered sandbox that fails
again before Stop gives `recovery_failed` with no second Recover.
- SDK: the envelope holds only the reason. A forged or non-SDK error
gives no data. Unknown reasons, accessor fields and a sender-supplied
`terminal` flag are not trusted. The worker host forwards the typed
failure and drops a plain error's detail.
- Server: terminal reasons escalate on attempt 1 with the long retry and
one operator warning. `recovery_incomplete` keeps the short retry. The
lease stays `pending_cleanup`, and the provider message never reaches
the logs.
- Not run: the full `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm test:run`, `pnpm build`
and `pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps` repo checks. CI runs them. No live
Daytona probe ran. The mocks model the Daytona SDK `recover()` contract:
it waits for `started` and rejects when the sandbox returns to `error`.

## Risks

- Time budget: the host gives `environmentStopLease` at most 60 s. A
recovered stop uses up to 20 s for Recover and up to 30 s for Stop, plus
short reads. A slower recovery returns `recovery_incomplete`. The SDK
call can continue at Daytona after that, so the next sweep finds the
sandbox started and stops it normally. If the host deadline fires while
the worker still stops the sandbox, the next sweep sees `stopped` and
records the receipt.
- Classification: after a failed Recover, the plugin cannot tell a
rejected request from a sandbox that started and failed again. Both give
`recovery_failed` (terminal) when Daytona still shows `error`. A hung
Recover call with a sandbox still in `error` is also terminal. Terminal
failures still retry every 30 minutes, and each retry makes at most one
Recover call. An explicit Retry also makes one attempt. There is no
tight loop. A sandbox that fails Recover every time gets about two
Recover calls an hour until an operator acts.
- Recover restarts the sandbox container before Stop. The plugin runs no
command in it, and the retention policy is confirmed before Recover.
- The continuation message for a terminally failed lease still says the
message "will start automatically". This PR does not change admission. A
follow-up can use the typed reason there.
- Compatibility: a host without this change ignores the new error data
and keeps the old retry behavior. A plugin without this change sends no
typed data.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip c7390bef20 fix(server): stop one slow copy-back from starving workspace retries (#19111)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A native run can accept its result before the workspace copy-back
finishes. A background worker retries a failed copy-back from the
retained sandbox without another provider turn.
> - Until that retry succeeds, the run stays `running` and keeps its
task's execution lock. User answers and wakes for that task stay queued.
> - The worker checked one entry at a time (`batchSize: 1`, no
concurrent checks). A slow sandbox export held every other task's due
retry for the whole export.
> - Work without a saved retry time used a deadline of `0`. Copy-backs
that a restart interrupted always sorted ahead of retries that were due
hours earlier.
> - On a busy server that restarts often, scheduled retries never got to
the front of the queue. Their tasks stayed stuck.
> - This pull request runs up to four checks at once, one per task, and
orders pending work by when it became pending.
> - The benefit is that one slow export cannot stall unrelated tasks,
and an old retry runs before newer work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17734 (added this worker), #18421 (the same concurrency pattern
for native reply recovery) and #19063 (open; records why finalization
failed a run). This pull request does not change their behavior.

**What happened?**

On a hosted instance, sandbox exports were slow for a few hours. A
harness-state save timed out after about 5.5 minutes in 27 runs, and
worker copy-back attempts took 2 to 34 minutes each. Eleven native runs
then waited in `retryable_failure` (or `workspace_finalizing` with an
expired lease) for more than three hours. Each one had exactly one
copy-back attempt and no retry. The worker's operation receipts show its
attempts ran strictly one after another. After each restart, the worker
first took the copy-backs that the restart interrupted. They have no
`nextAttemptAt`, so their deadline was `0`. The server restarted every
30 to 40 minutes, so the overdue retries never ran. One stuck run held a
task whose user had answered a question card. The answer's wake stayed
queued for the same three hours.

**Expected behavior**

A slow copy-back for one task does not delay due copy-backs for other
tasks. Due work runs oldest first. New work without a saved retry time
does not go ahead of older due retries.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create two native runs with accepted results on different tasks. Put
both in `retryable_failure` with an overdue `nextAttemptAt`. The first
is older.
2. Make the copy-back for the older run block.
3. Start the worker. On `master` the second task's copy-back never runs
while the first one blocks.

The new worker test runs these steps against PostgreSQL.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at `69dea878c0b`.

**Deployment mode**

Any server with native runs that use remote sandbox workspaces.

## What Changed

-
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-workspace-finalization-work.ts`:
- Remove `batchSize: 1`. Add `concurrentChecks: { limit: 4 }` keyed by
`issue:<company>:<issue>`. Runs that share a task keep their copy-backs
serialized. Ownership is still checked per run by the existing advisory
lock and owner receipt.
- Work without a saved retry time uses the coordinator's `updatedAt` as
its deadline, not `0`. The value is clamped to now, because the database
clock can be slightly ahead of the process clock. Saved retry times and
lease expiry behave as before.
- `doc/native-workspace-finalization-recovery.md`: one paragraph on
worker concurrency and ordering.

## Verification

- Failing first: "retries another task while an older copy-back is still
running". On `master` the second task's copy-back never ran while the
older one blocked (the test timed out after 15 s). Now the second task
finalizes while the first is still blocked. After release, the first one
also finalizes.
- Failing first: "orders work without a saved retry behind older overdue
retries". On `master` the interrupted copy-back had deadline `0` and
sorted first. Now it sorts after the older overdue retry, and its
deadline is not in the future.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/native-workspace-finalization-work.test.ts
src/__tests__/scoped-deadline-work.test.ts
src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts`: 3 files, 159
passed. After rebasing onto `69dea878c0b`, the first two files: 38
passed.
- `cd server && npx tsc --noEmit -p tsconfig.json`: pass.
- Not verified: the worker on a live instance under slow exports. The
diagnosis comes from that instance's operation receipts and run events.

## Risks

- Up to four copy-backs can now run at once on one server. Each one uses
its own dedicated database connection and sandbox transfer. Live runs
already finalize in parallel, so this is within the existing load
pattern.
- The batch size is now the default (25). A pass ends when its slowest
check ends, but the other lanes keep processing the rest of the batch.
- `updatedAt` changes on any coordinator write. A pending entry with new
writes moves later in the order, but it stays due.
- No schema migration.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`) through Claude Code, with tool use
(shell, file edits, test runs, read-only database and log queries). The
runtime does not expose the context window or reasoning configuration.

DottaandPaperclip 669538534c fix(recovery): preserve failed remote reattach workspaces (#18936)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Native runs can edit files in a remote execution workspace.
> - A failed reattach can leave an observed coordinator and unpublished
files.
> - The failure handler recognizes the older workspace-sync descriptor
but misses the modern workspace reference.
> - The released task lock then prevents ordinary session recovery from
claiming that old run.
> - This pull request retains the files through the existing Stop,
cleanup and workspace recovery owners.
> - Exact ownership and Stop evidence permit file preservation while
unknown provider effects remain under manual reconciliation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #18877 protects native manual admission holds. #18879 handles
scheduled native retry lock reclaim. #18918 fixes remote workspace
row-lock order. Those changes do not record the missing modern
failure-retention obligation.

**What happened?**

A native reattach failure can leave a failed run, a dirty modern remote
workspace, an expired observed coordinator and a free task execution
lock. The run has no accepted result. The failure handler skips file
retention because it checks only the older descriptor. Recovery cannot
export while the old coordinator remains owned. A mismatched workspace
generation can also make orphan cleanup miss the existing file claim.

**Expected behavior**

Retain the exact original allocation and files. Stop the allocation
through the existing lifecycle owner before retiring the stale
coordinator. Keep checkpoints and unknown external effects available for
manual reconciliation. Unsafe or changed source authority must prevent
physical cleanup.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Prepare a modern remote workspace for a native run.
2. Record a provider checkpoint and an active interruption incident.
3. Fail reattach preparation and release the task execution lock.
4. Let the coordinator lease expire.
5. Run the existing orphan, environment cleanup and workspace recovery
workers.
6. Verify the original files from a cold archive read and verify that no
new native session starts.

## What Changed

- Include modern prepared references in the existing heartbeat
failure-retention producer.
- Add a file-only historical intake for an exact failed observed run in
the normal expired reattach state.
- Require an untouched active ephemeral lease, a free blocked task,
matching workspace writer and generation, no accepted result and
complete single-owner allocation history.
- Persist the existing StopAndRetain intent before provider I/O. Use
nonblocking row locks and classify busy ownership only after rollback.
- Use the existing native environment settlement owner after exact Stop
and retention receipts arrive. Keep its single scoped discovery query.
- Preserve source and coordinator fingerprints across the handoff. Keep
original checkpoints, errors and manual unknown-effect incidents.
- Keep stale or malformed modern workspace claims held when preservation
intake refuses them.
- Add actual PostgreSQL, heartbeat, allocator, worker restart, archive
and safety controls. Document the narrow recovery contract.

## Verification

Current published head `b1f49691187a398415cf9b16b723e3ab473f0f91`: all
required CI checks pass (54 success, 3 skipped, 1 neutral); Greptile is
5/5 with no open threads. The separate Paperclip assessment is queued
and its current response says work is paused. That assessment is
unavailable; no additional review nudge or hosted retry was issued.

All local commands use Node 24.22.2 on macOS arm64.

- Exact published head: `b1f49691187a398415cf9b16b723e3ab473f0f91`.
Required CI passes (54 success, 3 skipped, 1 neutral); Greptile is 5/5
with zero open threads. The optional Paperclip assessment remains
queued/paused without a completed score.
- Final recursive `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- Final `pnpm build`: passed.
- Final three native producer, containment and scheduling files: **67/67
passed**. These include the real coordinator and worker restart, the
production heartbeat recovery callback, exact Stop receipts, cold
archive restore, and zero native backend, new allocation or destructive
release calls.
- The plugin allocator cases use the actual selector with `reuseLease:
true`. Active and released ephemeral leases receive a fresh allocation.
- The assembled reattach producer checks that the task and coordinator
claim commit before physical resume. A historical pin refuses that
current owner. A later claim behind a committed pin remains held.
- The safety controls cover reusable allocations, manual and unknown
states, cleanup in flight, accepted but unbound results, late allocation
owners, wrong or malformed workspace authority, changed
generation/checkpoint, lost Stop acknowledgement and a real
cleanup-producer lock conflict.
- Untouched base `e7549ab6131555f655736e6b544892a3b1e323cb`: four
expected behavioral failures and one passing legacy-descriptor control.
The failures cover the modern producer, original provider history,
historical retention and wrong-epoch cleanup. Fixed production files
were restored byte-for-byte after this comparison.
- The first affected six-file run completed **562 passed / 1 failed**.
The failure was an existing HTTP case with `socket hang up`. That exact
case passes separately on both untouched base and this branch. The
original connection failure remains unexplained. At `0e92de8c`, the
complete workspace family passes **188/188** with unchanged assertions.
The environment cleanup owner family also passes all 23 cases. The later
guard changes are qualified by the complete 67-case native owner group.
A full repository test run was not repeated locally; the requested
full-ci workflow runs the complete repository suites.
- Published `0e92de8c` fails both new explicit-null Stop/export marker
controls because it creates a new retention pin. The follow-up uses the
shared presence-aware Stop guard. Both controls now preserve the marker
and record no new retention pin, Stop or destructive release.
- Paperclip's review found that malformed workspace authority could
throw and abort an orphan page. Published `5f6cd4f5` fails all three new
controls: intake, the actual page and after-Stop settlement. The same
strict schema now uses a safe parse, and the existing OBSERVED hold runs
before the prepared-source lookup. The malformed source stays held while
the next valid source receives its retention pin.
- Two existing scheduling tests caught the draft's second global
discovery query. The final single-query repair passes all 36 unchanged
scheduling tests.
- An earlier restarted archive assertion stopped after 20 seconds. Its
recorded Stop was valid, and the coordinator had settled. The existing
evidence recheck deadline was still 13 seconds ahead. The final test
observes the unchanged 24–36 second policy within its existing 60 second
case limit.

The external fake provider Stop and file transport are controlled test
boundaries. Database ownership, lifecycle workers, archive bytes,
encrypted local storage and cold restore are real. This does not claim a
live cloud sandbox, S3 or model run. No hosted task was changed for this
PR.

## Risks

- Historical intake is deliberately narrow. Reusable, already released,
mismatched or competing allocations remain held.
- File preservation does not settle unknown provider effects or
authorize a repeated provider turn. The task can still require manual
reconciliation.
- A busy or changed owner delays preservation. The original files and
claims remain retained.
- This does not repair the underlying sandbox readiness failure or
establish the cause of a separate archive-capture failure.
- Deployment and recovery of original hosted tasks remain unverified.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with repository inspection, code execution
and GitHub tools. The runtime does not expose the exact serving model ID
or context window size. A separate Codex agent and the coordinator
performed read-only source review.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

**What happened?**

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

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

**Expected behavior**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 5c3dce09b5 fix(runner): preserve verified remote artifacts across controller releases (#17512)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and owns their task authority.
> - Remote native agents can keep working while their controller
restarts.
> - The controller must authenticate the same runner and verify its
provider files before recovery.
> - The current path compares a retained provider pack with the new
controller release. A release change can reject intact files.
> - The new controller binary digest can also reject the original daemon
during PRP authentication.
> - This PR records the admitted release authority in private controller
state and uses it for exact process reattachment.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A remote Claude session started and used tools. After controller
shutdown, recovery failed with
`runner_remote_provider_artifact_incompatible`. The transport combined
stderr into stdout, so the error omitted the verifier reason. The
historical rejected manifest is unavailable. This PR reproduces
controller release drift as a cause; it does not claim that the
historical mismatch is proven. Reaching pack verification implies the
earlier exact-process/controller-identity checks passed. That supports a
preserved-state recovery path but is not a direct inspection of the
deployed volume.

**Expected behavior**

A compatible, unchanged remote runner can reattach after a controller
release changes. Full package hashes, exact process scope, protocol
capabilities, and authenticated runner identity must still pass. Fresh
launches use the current release.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Verify and admit a remote native session with release A.
2. Preserve its runner process and replace the controller with release
B.
3. Reattach the original process. The old path compares its pack with B
and fails at `manifest mismatch`.
4. With this fix, the controller reads its saved A authority and
verifies all A hashes. Changed files still fail.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced from master `470cb34c0e42cb9d0b232d0bcf5d45cc7b0a81ca`;
rebased onto `a3675ddcdf`.

**Deployment mode**

Native remote runner on a Daytona-backed Paperclip Computer. Local
acceptance uses isolated Linux containers and actual packaged artifacts.

Related work: #17361 and #17448 handle runner upgrade and qualification
permissions. #17097 and #17439 add durable controller checkpoints and
server adoption. That stack can skip remote artifact preparation with a
saved checkpoint. This PR fixes the current file-backed path and retains
full provider-pack verification; it has no checkpoint schema or
empty-disk controller recovery.

## What Changed

- Save the complete verified pack manifest and authenticated runner
version/digest after successful session admission.
- Bind the receipt to company, agent, workspace, session, runner,
environment lease, remote directory, and provider descriptor. Keep it
outside guest backup directories.
- Reuse the saved authority for exact reattachment. Keep current release
selection for fresh launches and explicit session replacement.
- Fail closed for mismatched or corrupt receipts. Historical sessions
without a receipt retain the current release integrity gate.
- Report bounded, redacted verifier output from both transport streams.
Warn on receipt write failure while returning the already admitted
session to its owner.
- Add scope, persistence, replacement, storage failure, and backend
wiring regressions. Update recovery documentation and the feature map.

## Verification

- Test-first red: the original selection chose release B instead of A
after controller recreation. The new receipt regression passes. A
separate red test showed the missing stdout diagnostic; it passes after
the diagnostic fix.
- Authority and diagnostic suites: 49 tests pass. Backend pack, process
adoption, and harness persistence selection: 47 tests pass.
- Actual Linux provider image: complete A manifest/artifact verification
passed; controller source-revision drift failed on the old path; saved A
authority passed; a modified ACPX sidecar failed its SHA-256 check.
- Actual native Linux runner: authenticated a session, detached the
controller, changed the controller manifest and binary, then
authenticated the original PID and provider session with saved
authority. There were zero duplicate spawns, zero new provider turns, no
stop/suspend, and the workspace file remained. This probe used the real
runner with a deterministic Codex fixture; it is separate from the real
ACPX package integrity proof.
- Full workspace typecheck and build passed. The full native executor
suite first hit host PostgreSQL semaphore exhaustion. The complete
changed files then passed 864/864 tests with separate real PostgreSQL
databases in a disposable Linux container. The temporary local fixture
changed only database provisioning and used normal repository
migrations. Current-head CI also passed the full required test, Runner,
browser, typecheck, and build lanes.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and `git diff --check` passed. These
structural checks do not prove live recovery.
- Current head `48fca2ae33d99f7f6d2fe12f431cf76d25185c70`: 55 successful
checks, two conditional skips, no pending or failed checks; fresh
Greptile 5/5 with zero findings and zero unresolved review threads.
Commitperclip quality review passed.
- No original task was retried or changed. Existing Daytona access could
not resolve the original sandbox or its image; a fresh staging Claude
recovery is not claimed.

## Risks

This prevents recurrence for sessions admitted with the new receipt. It
does not retroactively recover the historical failed run. Saved
authority exists only after this change has admitted a session. It
cannot repair an ambiguous historical launch or restore a receipt on an
empty replacement controller. A stale protocol or modified pack remains
a hard failure. Receipt write errors warn without losing the live
session handle, but later recovery still needs matching authority. The
broader checkpoint stack changes the same server preparation and
runner-artifact option and will require a deliberate integration.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

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

**Expected behavior**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

**Paperclip version or commit**

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

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

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

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

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

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

DottaandPaperclip bfadb66556 fix(daytona): retain already archived workspaces on stop (#16710)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Stop-only recovery must keep unfinished remote workspace files safe.
> - Daytona can archive a stopped sandbox while those files remain in
object storage.
> - The stop handler sent another Stop request for that archived source.
> - Daytona rejected that request, so recovery could not record its
required receipt.
> - This change accepts the freshly confirmed archived state after
retention is verified.
> - Recovery can proceed while the source stays cold and its files
remain available.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #16583, #16700.

**What happened?**

Stop-only cleanup rejected a retained workspace after Daytona archived
it. The live provider returned `DaytonaValidationError` for Stop while
its state was `archived` and auto-delete was already disabled. The host
correctly kept the recovery gate closed.

**Expected behavior**

Confirm the exact source and its retention policy. Treat an archived
source as having no running process. Record the stop-only receipt
without starting or deleting the source.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Keep an unfinished native workspace with stop-and-retain intent.
2. Let its stopped Daytona sandbox become archived.
3. Request stop-only cleanup.
4. Observe the rejected Stop request and missing receipt.

## What Changed

- Accept `archived` after a fresh provider read confirms that
auto-delete is disabled.
- Stop the source if that fresh read instead shows it has resumed.
- Add regression cases for confirmed retention, unconfirmed retention,
and a resumed cached handle.
- Update the recovery runbook and capability map.

## Verification

- The new baseline fixture failed on the old handler: 1 failed, 2
passed.
- Daytona provider suites: 417 passed, 6 skipped.
- Full workspace `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- Full workspace `pnpm build`: passed on `fc8b1c1bb8`.
- Maps and Git whitespace checks: passed.
- The live provider rejection was reproduced on the exact retained
source. No model turn, file change or delete was performed. The fixed
source handler was then run against that same archived allocation with
the declared SDK version. It returned the stopped-process receipt while
the provider stayed archived with auto-delete disabled. No process was
started. All 58 exact-head CI checks passed; independent review is 5/5.
A full local run is also in progress on a separate frozen checkout of
this revision; it is not reported as complete.
- [Daytona lifecycle
documentation](https://www.daytona.io/docs/en/sandboxes/) confirms that
archive follows Stop and preserves the filesystem in object storage.

## Risks

- An archived source grants a generic stopped-process receipt. Its
physical provider state stays archived.
- Retention confirmation remains required. A stale archived handle that
has resumed still requires Stop.
- The host still checks the original allocation, ownership, stop receipt
and file-recovery evidence before continuation.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, tool use and code execution.
The session does not expose an exact backend model ID or context-window

DottaandPaperclip 6bec153410 fix(runtime): retain cancelled workspaces before reconstruction (#16700)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs must preserve files when Stop ends a turn before its
result is saved.
> - The cancellation path could skip file retention and leave a prepared
remote workspace active.
> - An older controller could also admit an extra run while an earlier
lost-source hold was unresolved.
> - Rejecting every later run then prevented recovery even after that
extra run was stopped and its files were reconciled.
> - This change retains cancelled workspaces and records the exact proof
for a safely reconciled intervening cancellation.
> - Recovery can proceed without changing cancelled history, replaying
actions, or weakening execution gates.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #16583, #16690, #16696.

**What happened?**

Stop could acknowledge a native turn without recording its unsaved file
obligation. Reconstruction also rejected a later cancelled run after its
exact environment and files had been reconciled. The task could remain
inactive with an `in_progress` status, which the reconstruction endpoint
rejected.

**Expected behavior**

Retain unsaved files after Stop. Permit a board operator to reconstruct
from saved sources only after each intervening cancellation has a
confirmed stop and a file-only repair record. Preserve the original
failed export and the cancelled run.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Prepare a native workspace and cancel the turn before a structured
result exists.
2. Inspect its file retention and remote lease state.
3. For a task with an older destroyed export, reconcile the later
cancelled run's exact files and unperformed actions.
4. Request reconstruction from verified same-task attachments.

## What Changed

- Pin prepared native files before cancellation settlement. Defer
teardown if pinning fails. Use the existing stop-only cleanup worker.
- Repair active warm and ephemeral sources, plus stopping and
confirmed-stopped historical cancellations in bounded startup and
periodic batches. Preserve the existing exact-source checks. Bound
row-lock waits and advance past a busy source.
- Accept only same-owner native run-only cancellations with no result or
current coordinator, confirmed stopped leases, and board file-only
repair with `not_performed` action outcomes.
- Save hashes of each intervening repair and recheck them at queue claim
and final dispatch. Reject changed evidence or another later run.
- Expose saved-source reconstruction in the issue API for inactive
`blocked` and `in_progress` tasks, and hide it when an execution or
checkout owner exists. Permit the same inactive source at submission.
Keep the source, owner, version, attachment, budget, pause and retry
checks.
- Update the shared evidence type, recovery runbook and capability maps.
Add an optional cancelled-native no-action confirmation to file
recovery, resetting evidence when its source changes. No migration, new
endpoint, permission or dependency.

## Verification

- The new fixture fails on the original validator with
`workspace_reconstruction_stale` after valid cancelled-run file repair.
- Focused source and Stop retention tests: 94 passed before the final
contention case. The subsequent three-suite run passed 123 tests,
including real PostgreSQL lock contention and public
startup/API/final-dispatch paths. The final narrow-query rerun passed
all 123 tests. Review correction: all 143 tests passed across four
suites, including real lock contention through the teardown boundary and
stopping/stopped allocations.
- Six broader cancellation, executor, heartbeat and restart suites: 831
passed, 9 existing skips.
- Final correction: all 145 backend tests and all 36 recovery UI tests
passed. Real contention covers both warm reusable and ephemeral sources.
Optional no-action confirmation defaults to uncertified, and changing
source clears evidence. Workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and token gates
passed on these sources.
- Maps, module boundaries and Git whitespace checks: passed. Full `pnpm
build` passed on the final `4e8c0e73ac` revision as well as the prior
reviewed heads. A full local run of the preceding fix completed with
21,724 passes, 109 skips and three failures in webhook body limits, a
status-card timeout, and a port-allocation fixture. All three suites
then passed unchanged in an isolated rerun (209 tests). The full local
run remains recorded as failed; the final head's full CI passed (55
completed checks, no failures). A fresh full local run is also in
progress on the frozen reviewed head.
- Preserved failures: the first attempt lacked a built plugin SDK; after
building prerequisites, the regression reached the expected validator
rejection. Treatment tests caught the file-only action's deliberately
null continuation owner. A real lock test then caught the database
driver's wrapped timeout error. Both defects were corrected and
retested. Independent review then found a teardown race after a failed
retention write. A second review found active warm sources excluded by
the historical policy filter; the regression reproduced both warm
failures before correcting the query. Its real-row-lock fixture
reproduced the failure; the fixed release guard and historical
stopping/stopped cases pass. No checks were weakened.
- A pre-deployment walkthrough caught the issue API still hiding
reconstruction for an inactive `in_progress` task. The status/capability
baseline reproduced three failures, including inappropriate capability
flags for execution/checkout owners. The fix uses the same
inactive-state requirements as submission; its positive fixture reads
the assembled issue API before reconstructing. All 117 tests in those
three recovery suites pass, and all 28 heartbeat-recovery tests pass
separately. Full workspace typecheck passed again. Full build passed
with the exact `4e8c0e73ac` stamp; latest-head independent review is 5/5
with no open findings. All 55 latest-head checks completed with no
failures.
- Live tenant acceptance remains pending. No successful reconstruction,
export or warm-process proof is claimed by these local tests.

## Risks

- Stop retains unfinished work, so storage remains until file recovery
and explicit cleanup complete.
- Reconstruction remains held for unknown or performed external actions,
foreign owners, live or rebound environments, accepted results, changed
evidence, and unrelated later runs.
- The sweep examines at most five candidates per pass. It uses a fair
cursor and bounded transaction waits. It performs no provider call and
starts no new turn.
- Intervening verification reads only the needed JSON fields. The source
transaction still serializes recovery for the same task.

DottaandPaperclip 69ac928d2b fix(runtime): preserve bounded retries after workspace reconstruction (#16696)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - An operator can rebuild a destroyed workspace from saved task
attachments.
> - The first reconstruction run must pass current source and execution
checks.
> - A temporary bootstrap failure can create a bounded retry before
provider work starts.
> - The retry has a new run ID, so the first-run-only reconstruction
check rejects it.
> - This change verifies the retry chain back to the approved first run
and keeps current safety checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #16690.

**What happened?**

After an operator records workspace reconstruction, a safe bootstrap
retry is cancelled before provider startup. The normal retry scheduler
creates the successor. The reconstruction check then rejects its
immediate predecessor because it expects the original failed export run.

**Expected behavior**

A verified automatic retry can continue under the same reconstruction
decision and remaining retry budget. Changed sources, unrelated
executions, uncertain outcomes, pause and later human blocks must still
stop startup.

**Steps to reproduce**

Record reconstruction with a retry budget remaining. Let its first run
fail before provider work starts with recorded bootstrap evidence. Use
the normal bounded retry scheduler and the locked dispatch gate. Before
this change, the scheduler succeeds but dispatch returns false.

## What Changed

- Verify the predecessor chain back to the recovery action's exact first
continuation.
- Check company, task, agent, terminal predecessor state and each
scheduler-owned wake. Reject cycles, foreign parents and forged wakes.
- Exclude only those verified predecessors from the unrelated-newer-run
check. Keep source hashes, original result identity and all current
execution gates.
- Reuse the existing reconciliation proof for failed predecessors. Keep
the original retry limit.
- Add real PostgreSQL scheduler and assembled-heartbeat regressions.
Update the recovery guide and feature map.

## Verification

- The baseline regression failed at final dispatch after the normal
retry scheduler created its successor.
- The corrected focused group passes 133 tests across reconstruction,
retry scheduling and dispatch. It admits two bounded bootstrap retries
and refuses a third. The assembled heartbeat enters the provider once
for an eligible retry and zero times after a controlled post-claim human
block.
- An intermediate negative case exposed missing predecessor-outcome
validation. Reusing the existing reconciliation proof fixes it. Deleted
sources, pause, forged wakes, foreign parents, unrelated runs and new
recovery holds remain refused.
- Full workspace typecheck and build pass on rebased head
`bd301ec8a703fa1cdc9e1db2638440d203e8d57a`. The rebased focused group
passes all 133 tests. All CI gates pass on that exact head, including
general/serialized tests, Runner, build and browser gates. Greptile is
5/5 with no unresolved threads. A clean full local `pnpm test:run` is
running; the local source stays frozen for that run.
- Module boundaries, maps and diff whitespace checks pass. Live staging
acceptance follows the qualified full Cloud deployment.
- The earlier full local run for #16690 failed while files changed and
its PATH hid `lsof`. All five affected suites then passed in a clean
run: 246 passed, three skipped. Those results do not establish a full
local pass for this follow-up.

## Risks

- Retry ancestry is a rare recovery path. Its primary-key reads grow
with the chain and stop at 64 predecessors. Ordinary runs perform no new
ancestry reads.
- Unknown effects and active recovery obligations stay held. This does
not reset budgets, change provider lifecycle policy, grant access or
replay completed actions.
- No schema migration or new API is included.

DottaandPaperclip 7c7d2d8d2c fix(runtime): continue from saved sources after workspace loss (#16690)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The runtime must preserve saved work and prevent duplicate
execution.
> - Older cleanup could destroy a sandbox before its workspace export
finished.
> - The existing recovery controls require either the original sandbox
or recovered original files.
> - Surviving attachments can support a rebuild, but they do not prove
that missing edits were recovered.
> - This pull request adds an explicit reconstruction decision and one
fresh continuation through the normal execution gates.
> - Operators can continue useful work while the original failed run
remains truthful.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A historical failed export can have an accepted result, a prepared
workspace descriptor, and a confirmed destroyed sandbox. Its notice can
also say `new_source_execution_path` and disappear. The task then has
neither a truthful original-file repair path nor a supported
reconstruction path.

**Expected behavior**

Keep the missing-file obligation visible. Let an authorized operator
choose surviving task attachments and record lost work and external
action outcomes. Start one fresh continuation after current execution
checks. Keep the old result and failed export intact.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Seed a failed native export with a prepared descriptor and an exact
destroyed-lease receipt.
2. Resolve its notice with the historical `new_source_execution_path`
bookkeeping value.
3. Read the task. The baseline hides the hold even though no source
reconciliation exists.
4. With this change, choose **Continue from saved sources** and submit a
reconstruction decision.

Related public work: #16451 preserves healthy warm sessions. #16583
prevents destructive cleanup of unexported work. This change handles
historical source loss that those fixes cannot undo. Searches of open
and closed work found no equivalent reconstruction endpoint.

## What Changed

- Add a board-only reconstruction endpoint with `runtime:manage` and
task visibility checks.
- Validate the exact run, result, descriptor and destroyed lease. Reject
active copyback, competing owners, newer work, stale task status, and
foreign attachments.
- Record attachment hashes, missing work, and external action outcomes.
Preserve the original failed run, accepted result, prepared descriptor
and terminal failure.
- Hold other continuation paths until the durable reconstruction intent
admits its successor. Record that successor in the same transaction and
preserve the retry count.
- Add an operator control that distinguishes reconstruction from
original-file recovery. Update the recovery runbook and capability maps.

## Verification

- Exact baseline source returns no blocker for the destroyed-source
fixture. The same fixture returns a required recovery hold with this
change.
- New real PostgreSQL and assembled API/heartbeat suite: 25/25 pass. It
covers duplicate submissions, lost acknowledgement, context reset,
source identity, task ownership, concurrent execution attachment scope,
later human blocks, deleted sources and agent pause.
- Existing export retry, explicit continuation and recovery-action
suites: 386 cases pass. One new-fixture constraint error in the combined
run was corrected; the full new suite then passed.
- UI recovery suites: 46/46 pass across three files. They cover disabled
actions, loss acknowledgement, failure retention and runtime authority.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. The first sandboxed
typecheck attempt could not open the TypeScript IPC socket; the
authorized rerun passed.
- Module boundaries, map checks, token gates and diff whitespace checks
pass.
- OpenAPI route coverage: 21/21 pass. The first CI head exposed a
missing endpoint registration; this head adds the registration and the
focused suite passes.
- Review identified a missing dispatch-time check and an isolated
attachment cache. Both are fixed. Claim and final handoff recheck the
exact successor, sources and current execution gates. A controlled
post-claim operator block prevents the assembled heartbeat from entering
the provider. The shared attachment cache refreshes uploads and removes
deleted selections.
- Final focused run: 180/180 pass across six suites, including
reconstruction, existing dispatch/stale-queue contracts and UI recovery.
- A second review reproduced cancellation by an already satisfied
historical connection card while the task was `todo`. Read-only
connection availability now works before checkout; active-task mutation
checks remain strict. The baseline failed two cases; after the fix all
74 connection and reconstruction tests pass, including revoked access,
pending questions and pending approvals.
- All current-head CI gates pass on
`9d197236da11fa24f1ceadf5589cb2b81179d824`, including general/serialized
tests, Runner, build and browser gates. Greptile is 5/5 for that exact
head with no unresolved threads. The full local `pnpm test:run` is still
running its serial server group; no full local pass is claimed. Live
staging recovery is pending deployment.

## Risks

- Reconstruction cannot restore missing bytes. The operator must
identify surviving sources and actions that must not be repeated. The
agent must verify those attachments before rebuilding.
- This path is limited to exact, confirmed destroyed remote sources with
an accepted result. Retained or uncertain sources keep their existing
repair path.
- No schema migration, credential change, budget increase or
warm-session policy change is included. Normal pause, ownership, budget,
approval and dispatch gates still apply.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 79c34058cd fix(native): retain unexported workspaces after execution failure (#16397)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native agents can edit files in a remote sandbox before they submit
a result.
> - A process identity or startup failure can end the run before file
export.
> - Cleanup can then delete the sandbox and its unpublished files.
> - This pull request retains the exact source and records a file repair
action before cleanup.
> - Operators can recover the files without replaying the failed turn or
changing the task owner.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A native remote process had completed local edits when process identity
recovery failed. The run still had a prepared workspace reference and no
accepted result. Cleanup deleted the source sandbox. No file recovery
card appeared. A restarted run can hit the same path during setup,
before the native executor starts.

**Expected behavior**
Retain the exact unexported source. Show the existing file recovery
card. Require source stop and file recovery evidence. Keep task
ownership, status, and external action reconciliation separate from file
repair.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run a native agent in a remote ephemeral workspace and make
unpublished edits.
2. Fail process identity recovery before result acceptance or file
export.
3. Allow failure handling and lease cleanup to run.
4. Before this change, cleanup can destroy the source without a file
repair action.

Refs: #16341 for related process identity diagnostics. Refs: #16349 for
startup ownership fencing. This change addresses file retention after
failure.

## What Changed

- Record source retention and a file recovery action in the terminal
native failure transaction.
- Cover restarted preparation failures before the terminal setup writer
and cleanup run.
- Require the exact company, run, lease, provider allocation, and
workspace binding. Require the exact live recovery claim to settle an
owned preparation failure. Refuse stale or competing claims.
- Reuse the existing stop-only cleanup and file-only reconciliation
path. Leave accepted results and scheduled same-run recovery on their
existing paths.
- Document the retention rule and add database and runtime boundary
regressions.

## Verification

- All 1,242 tests passed across the full heartbeat recovery suite,
native executor, native source retention, runtime teardown, run
completion, and legacy file recovery.
- The integrated missing-descriptor regression fails before the
inner-handler fix and passes after it. The runtime retention and owned
restart regressions also reproduce their prior failures.
- The tests cover exact source identity, current and stale claims,
atomic rollback, cancellation, idempotence, and file-only repair on a
completed task.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed on the final code.
- `pnpm build` passed on the final code.
- Full repository CI passed on
`3945eb2ba5c228c5d4992da02b765dcf2e634cb8`: 54 successful checks and two
skipped Storybook checks.
- Apex scored 5/5 on that exact commit. Both earlier findings are fixed
and all review threads are resolved.
- The unsharded local `pnpm test:run` is still in progress. It is not
counted as a local full-suite pass; complete suite coverage is verified
in CI.

## Risks

- Failed runs can retain a sandbox that needs operator cleanup after
file recovery. This uses the existing retention policy and recovery
controls.
- This does not recover files from allocations that were already
deleted.
- No schema migration, UI change, or telemetry change is required.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. Tool use, code execution, and reasoning
assisted this change. The environment identifies the model as GPT-6; it
does not expose a more specific serving snapshot or context window size.

DottaandPaperclip aa04c5c2a7 fix(runtime): keep the copyback lock transaction active (#16340)
Keep the dedicated workspace-copyback transaction active with bounded SELECT 1 probes while filesystem work runs. Preserve existing connection, owner-token, takeover and publication fences.

Verified head 7fb0ad45bf: full CI, E2E, Superagent, legacy statuses and Apex 5/5; no unresolved review findings. Real PostgreSQL idle-timeout reproduction and 71 affected cases pass. Strengthened disabled-timeout controls fail when their guard is removed.

0b0e53029f fix: recover saved workspace results automatically (#15824)
## Thinking Path

- Paperclip preserves accepted agent results before workspace copyback
and result commitment.
- A replaced controller can leave a physical copyback owner receipt
behind. A lost database lock or expired lease cannot prove that its
tar/Git children stopped.
- Infrastructure recovery should belong to the runtime and deployment
harness; task users should not investigate processes or attest shutdown.
- New receipts record the exact deployment. The harness independently
verifies that deployment fully stopped and signs a short-lived proof
bound to the stack, run, owner and deployment.
- The existing guarded reconciler then finishes the same accepted result
without a new agent turn. Legacy receipts retain the documented
administrator API after independent platform verification.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An accepted native result can remain at `workspace_finalizing` with an
abandoned physical copyback owner. Repeated recovery sweeps could
replace specific instructions with advice to start new agent work. The
first version of this PR exposed a shutdown-evidence form in the task;
that asks end users to resolve infrastructure details.

**Expected behavior**

Automatically verify and recover the exact stopped deployment, preserve
the original accepted result and existing approval/monitor waits, and
show only a quiet task status. Unknown or live workers must remain
fenced. Older receipts without platform identity need independently
verified operator assistance through the administrator API.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Persist an accepted native result and a copyback receipt from a prior
controller.
2. Replace that deployment before workspace finalization commits.
3. Let the normal finalization reconciler revisit the saved result.
4. With a platform-bound receipt and a fully stopped deployment,
recovery should finish automatically. With missing, live, unverifiable
or changed ownership, it must not write files or create another provider
turn.

Related public work: #14402 introduced copyback ownership; #9687 handles
dead-run finalize barriers; #15795 handles terminal stale-run cleanup.
This change addresses an accepted result whose physical copyback owner
prevents commitment.

## What Changed

- Record Railway project, environment, service and deployment identity
on new physical copyback owners.
- Request read-only platform verification from the managed cloud
harness. Require an Ed25519 stop receipt with a disjoint purpose,
configured signing key, exact stack/run/owner/deployment binding and
valid expiry.
- Keep live, unknown, malformed, unavailable and legacy owners fenced.
Compare the whole prior receipt during ownership takeover, under the
existing dedicated advisory lock.
- Persist platform proof and audit automatic takeover. Resume normal
finalization of the same saved result, preserving task ownership,
approved boundaries, monitors and pending confirmations.
- Remove process metadata, shutdown evidence, confirmation checkboxes
and infrastructure-repair forms from task views. Suppress the duplicate
technical owner-recovery card. Show “Restoring saved work…” only from
server-confirmed recovery or queued operator recovery; platform identity
alone shows the operator-assistance fallback. Remove the status when
recovery resolves.
- Share current-task, current-running-execution, accepted-result,
authoritative-reviewer and newer-execution checks between automatic and
operator recovery. Validate after the provider lookup, atomically with
the owner claim, and again before file publication; closed or superseded
tasks cannot start copyback.
- Keep the separately authorized exact-owner API for operator recovery
of legacy receipts, with active-lock, live-controller, stale-result and
newer-execution rejection. Generic dismissal cannot bypass the copyback
fence.
- Replace obsolete form stories with production-backed automatic,
queued, legacy, completed and mobile examples; retain stable suite IDs.
Update the operator runbook and scoped Storybook catalog.

## Verification

- Red/green: new platform-proof tests failed before implementation; the
database takeover regression failed against the original ownership
guard; reduced-UI assertions failed against the original form. All pass
after the changes.
- Passed: 59 physical-owner/finalization database tests using isolated
PostgreSQL, including real reconciler commitment from all three
saved-result phases through both automatic and operator recovery. They
preserve result identity, exact saved file bytes, pending approval and
overdue monitor waits, and create no new run or wake request. Unknown
evidence and changed ownership remain fenced.
- Passed: 162 focused proof, cloud identity, recovery route,
recovery-card and reduced-UI tests.
- Passed: full workspace typecheck and build, final server/UI
typechecks, token gates, and Storybook build.
- Browser inspection: desktop task composition shows only the quiet
status; completed example removes it and retains the approval-wait
message. Mobile shows the existing bottom navigation with no horizontal
overflow. These are fixture UI observations, not live provider
acceptance.
- A companion harness change implements the actual provider check,
signed receipts, server-token authentication and bounded/coalesced
provider reads. Its full typecheck and test suite passed: 3,240 passed,
92 skipped, zero failures. This application alone cannot enable platform
verification.
- The updated full application `pnpm test:run` was stopped after
repeated local embedded-Postgres startup failures; it is not claimed
green. The same affected recovery suites pass against isolated
PostgreSQL. CI passed on final head `9ad5c3529e`: 54 successful checks,
two intentional skips, and successful legacy Snyk status. Greptile is
5/5 with no unresolved findings.
- Global Storybook catalog validation is green: 225 files, 2,224
stories. Its 17 catalog/index tests pass. Master was merged and the
inherited index metadata was reconciled after source review.
- Review correction red/green: two UI and two database assertions
reproduced misleading progress / missing server recovery state; all pass
after server-confirmed state was added. All 153 focused server tests and
68 UI tests pass on the final recovery code, including repeated-sweep
idempotence. Full workspace typecheck/build, token gates and Storybook
build also pass.
- Safety regression red/green: stale-task copyback and publication tests
failed against the previous guard. The final suite covers changes during
proof lookup, closed/cancelled tasks, replaced execution/checkout, newer
and queued legacy runs, reassignment and rejected/unbound results, plus
the real reconciler selecting closed or superseded tasks. Files remain
untouched and no workspace operation starts.
- No staging mutations, deployment, live provider probes or live
production recovery were performed. The three historical receipts lack
deployment identity and still require independent operator proof.

## Risks

Automatic takeover requires the companion harness release and configured
runtime-identity keys. Deploying only this application leaves
unavailable evidence fenced. Legacy receipts are not retrospectively
assigned a deployment identity. An authorized operator can still make an
incorrect attestation through the fallback API; its administrator gate
and exact-owner safeguards remain. Provider history that is missing or
deeper than the bounded lookup defers automatic recovery. Copyback can
still fail under its existing retained-workspace policy.

No migration, telemetry change or cloud provider credential delivery is
required. The companion harness PR also has passing CI and a 5/5 review;
neither branch is deployed.

83e13db8fa fix(inbox): keep automatic recovery cleanup out of personal participation (#16063)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The personal inbox uses issue activity to identify a person's
participation.
> - Issue reads can cancel stale recovery actions and record that
cleanup as the reader's action.
> - This adds unrelated tasks to the inbox and refreshes their activity
timestamps.
> - A workspace owner hold can also alternate between creation and
cancellation after a task finishes.
> - This pull request corrects cleanup attribution, excludes historical
read cleanup, and retains one exact owner hold.
> - Agents can read authorized issue activity to diagnose the same
problem themselves.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15742 excludes logs by the execution-recovery actor from activity
timestamps. This PR covers reader-attributed stale recovery cleanup,
personal inbox participation, exact workspace owner holds, and sandbox
issue activity access. I searched open issues and PRs for recovery inbox
and activity bridge fixes. I found no duplicate for this defect.

**What happened?**

Loading issue lists cancels stale recovery actions under the reader's
identity. The personal inbox treats those rows as user participation.
One completed issue had hundreds of such rows and no edits or comments
by the affected reader. A retained native workspace owner repeatedly
creates a verification action that read projections then cancel. Sandbox
agents cannot inspect the issue activity because the reverse bridge
rejects the route.

**Expected behavior**

Automatic cleanup belongs to the system and does not add an issue to a
reader's inbox. Historical cleanup rows remain auditable but do not
count as participation or recent activity. An unresolved physical
workspace owner keeps one stable verification action. Agents can inspect
activity only for issues their identity may read.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Finish a task whose native run retains an unverifiable workspace
owner receipt.
2. Repeat workspace recovery checks and GET requests for issue detail,
compact lists, and recovery actions.
3. Observe new recovery action IDs and reader-attributed cancellations
in the activity history.
4. Query the personal inbox for that reader and observe the unrelated
task.
5. From a sandbox agent, request GET /api/issues/:id/activity and
observe Route not allowed.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Observed at f5346c05b9. Regression tests
use current master behavior.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated hosted instance with native and legacy sandbox agents. The
inbox defect is independent of the adapter.

## What Changed

- Attribute automatic stale recovery cleanup to the recovery system
actor.
- Exclude exact historical read cleanup rows from personal inbox
membership, unread counts, and both activity timestamp queries. Keep all
audit rows and explicit user recovery decisions.
- Retain owner verification holds only while the exact company, run,
issue, and owner fingerprint still match. Apply the same rule to reads
and background recovery.
- Make repeated checks for the same owner hold leave its identity,
attempts, and timestamps unchanged. Keep physical takeover blocked.
- Allow GET issue activity through the sandbox bridge. Keep the existing
company and issue-read authorization and reject broader audit routes.
- Add regressions and update the runtime API and recovery documentation.
Refresh generated source references for the documentation edits. Update
the paired activity, inbox, and recovery maps.

## Verification

- Focused Vitest verification: 315 tests pass across five files. The
updated terminal owner hold regression also passes. The files cover
issue service, recovery routes, activity authorization, sandbox callback
bridge, and native workspace finalization.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass locally. The full general
and serialized unit test matrix passes in CI on the latest commit. The
duplicate local `pnpm test:run` was stopped after about 30 minutes once
that full CI coverage passed; it did not report a local full-suite pass.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` passes for all paired areas and
capability IDs.
- Apex is 5/5 on commit 44c3787888. Its
access map finding is fixed and resolved. All CI checks are green on
this commit.
- The new regression repeats reads and background sweeps for done and
cancelled tasks. It checks one unchanged hold, zero physical copyback,
zero personal inbox participation, and system cleanup after the exact
receipt is cleared.
- Historical cleanup tests preserve explicit recovery decisions,
nullable metadata, unread counts, and the original audit rows.
- Authorization tests permit an authorized agent and reject
cross-company or issue-boundary reads. Bridge tests reject write
methods, extra path segments, and company-wide audit routes.

## Risks

Existing inbox items can disappear if their only participation evidence
was automatic read cleanup. No data migration or audit deletion is
needed. An unresolved workspace owner remains visible after task
completion; this preserves the physical writer fence. A stale or cleared
owner does not retain the hold. Issue activity access expands only the
sandbox transport allowlist and still uses existing controller
authorization.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository inspection, code
editing, shell execution, and test tools. The session identifies the
model family as GPT-6. A more specific runtime model ID and context
window size are not exposed.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 7e10dbe652 fix(server): retain stopped ephemeral workspaces after failed copy-back (#15790)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work performed by agents.
> - A remote adapter must copy workspace changes back after execution.
> - Cancellation can stop and release an ephemeral sandbox before
copy-back fails.
> - The recovery recorder previously considered only active or already
held leases.
> - This change carries the original host lease into the recorder and
checks both stop receipts.
> - The exact stopped source receives a board repair obligation without
replaying work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A legacy remote run can report `workspaceRestoreFailure` after its
dedicated stop has released the source lease. The recorder misses that
source and does not create its file-repair action. Related prior work:
#15637 adds bounded transfer diagnostics; #15718 protects native
accepted finalization. This change addresses the separate legacy
recording order.

**Expected behavior**

Preserve the exact eligible source and record the existing board repair
obligation. Preserve cancellation, later task progress, and newer
execution ownership.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Acquire an ephemeral remote lease for a legacy run.
2. Complete the dedicated stop-and-retain lifecycle and persist both
stop receipts.
3. Report a workspace copy-back failure from the original adapter
invocation.
4. Observe that the old recorder omits the released source. The
PostgreSQL regression reproduces this order.

**Paperclip version or commit**

de042e79ef.

**Deployment mode**

Server with PostgreSQL and a sandbox provider. The regression uses
disposable local PostgreSQL and synthetic provider receipts.

## What Changed

- Clone the realized host lease before adapter dispatch and carry it
into restore recording.
- Admit a released source only when its original and current policies
are ephemeral, its full ownership and workspace identity match, and its
dedicated retention receipt agrees with the independent
stopped-execution receipt.
- Reject reusable, expired, destroyed, rebound, competing, or
insufficiently proved sources. Preserve release state and receipts when
recording the existing no-replay repair action.
- Cover the actual stop-before-copy-back lifecycle, cleanup retries,
built-in dispatch, rollback, repeated recording, newer owners, and
ownership/receipt failures. Document the narrow scope.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/legacy-workspace-restore-recovery.test.ts
server/src/services/legacy-execution-recovery.test.ts`: 80 passed.
- Existing Grok confirmed-stop/copy-back boundary test: passed.
- The new PostgreSQL regression fails on the baseline because the
recovery marker is absent.
- Guard-removal controls fail when either the ephemeral-policy gate or
original-source identity checks are removed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`: passed.
- Additional competing-owner/lifecycle checks: 6 passed, including older
stopped and destroyed allocation owners.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed.
- Independent review approved the final source. The exact ephemeral
regression fails on the baseline; policy/identity guard-removal controls
fail their intended assertions.
- Compatibility with #15789 was checked in a disposable combined
checkout: both commit orders yield the same tree. The earlier broad run
passed 136 cases; the final guard/SDK delta passed 9 cases.
- Greptile: 5/5 on the current head, with no review threads.
- Exact-head CI: 53 successful checks and 2 expected skips; no failures
or pending checks. This includes all test shards and Canary Dry Run.
- The duplicate local `pnpm test:run` aggregate was stopped after full
CI passed. It is not reported as a completed local suite.
- No live provider calls, historical data repair, run replay, or
deployment was performed.

## Risks

No schema or API change. A qualifying source remains held for manual
file repair and eventual removal, which can retain provider storage
longer. This fix does not recover historical files or establish that the
provider still holds the bytes. Reusable sources remain excluded from
this new path because provider resume can start before the database
handoff. Existing active-source and previously recorded recovery
behavior is unchanged.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, and
independent agent review. The exact model revision and context-window
size are not exposed to this session.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 7a58591721 fix(recovery): preserve accepted workspace finalization during reaping (#15718)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A native run saves its accepted result before it copies workspace
changes back.
> - A restart can leave that copyback under an unverified physical
owner.
> - The generic orphan reaper can mistake the exited provider for lost
work and release the source lease.
> - Recovery must preserve the accepted result and let the existing
finalizer settle its remaining work.
> - This pull request checks that authority at the conditional
process-loss write and preserves the matching recovery hold.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #15475 added bounded process-loss evidence. The earlier #9687
addresses dead-run finalize barriers with synthetic receipts. This
change preserves an existing accepted native result and requires real
workspace settlement.

**What happened?**

After a server restart, the native finalizer required operator
verification of unfinished copyback. The generic orphan reaper then
marked the run `process_lost` and released its source lease. A new
execution path also made the recovery reconciler clear the copyback hold
before physical ownership was verified.

**Expected behavior**

An accepted result bound to the same company, issue, and run keeps its
unfinished workspace suffix under native finalization. The generic
reaper must not discard its source. The existing finalizer must still
complete the work, apply its bounded failure policy, or require operator
verification.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Accept a native result and leave its coordinator in
`workspace_finalizing`.
2. Stop the controller before copyback completes, leaving its physical
owner receipt.
3. Start recovery, then run the generic orphan and lease cleanup sweeps.
4. Before this change, the run can fail with `process_lost` despite its
accepted result and explicit copyback hold.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced against `011e5669`; the same recovery code remains at base
`1602512820`.

**Deployment mode**

A hosted server with PostgreSQL and native runner execution. The tests
use only isolated local PostgreSQL and synthetic fixtures.

## What Changed

- Check the exact accepted result and `workspace_finalizing` coordinator
before generic process-loss cleanup.
- Repeat the check in the conditional status write. Compare the
heartbeat tuple version to reject a result publisher that commits while
the update waits on its row lock.
- Preserve nonterminal copyback holds when another execution path
appears. Resolve only the matching run's hold after verified
finalization commits.
- Add fourteen real PostgreSQL service regressions and document the
recovery boundary.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts -t 'native
finalization'`: 14 passed. The test filter excluded 383 existing tests.
- Tests cover startup, repeated reaper and cleanup sweeps, malformed and
foreign owners, an expired old controller, exact database bindings,
legacy and unsupported states, verified settlement, and unchanged
terminal-task dispositions.
- The concurrent publisher test uses the real accepted-result
transaction and proves the reaper update is blocked by its row lock
before the publisher commits.
- The local `pnpm test:run` aggregate was stopped after setup timeouts
in the chat and tool-access files and a damaged-epoch Runner test
failure. It is not a full local pass.
- The chat file passed all 1,145 tests when run alone. The tool-access
file then passed 419 of 420; one case returned `socket hang up`. That
single case passed on its isolated rerun. The cause of the socket
failure is not established here.
- The damaged-epoch Runner case still fails locally at its existing
completion assertion. The same assertion failed on untouched baseline
`556daf9a` before this patch; its test and Runner sources are unchanged.
Exact-head CI passes this coverage. No workaround for that local fixture
is included.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- Independent review approved this exact commit. All 14 new PostgreSQL
regressions and 181 existing recovery/finalizer cases passed. One
existing suite needed an isolated rerun after a setup timeout.
- Independent negative controls reproduced the original bug. Removing
only the tuple-version guard reproduced the blocked-row race. Removing
only the hold exclusion cleared the safety hold too early. Restoring
this patch passed all three checks.
- GitHub CI passed all 53 applicable checks. The two Storybook jobs were
skipped as expected. Greptile scored this commit 5/5 with no unresolved
review threads.
- Local runtime: Node 25.6.1. GitHub CI supplies the repository's Node
24 checks.
- `git diff --check`, Gitleaks, and a local diff scan for secrets and
private data passed.

## Risks

- PostgreSQL tuple versions are used only as an optimistic fence for
`process_lost`. Both accepted-result publishers lock and update that
heartbeat in their result transaction.
- The guard requires the bound accepted result and the durable
coordinator state. A heartbeat phase or arbitrary owner JSON alone
cannot suppress ordinary process loss.
- Existing finalizer retries, ownership verification, explicit
cancellation, and terminal-task dispositions remain unchanged. A
physical owner can still require operator verification.
- This change does not replay provider work or restore a source already
destroyed by an older controller. No migration or runtime operation is
included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and independent agent review. The exact service model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this worker session.

DottaandPaperclip 14795136f5 fix(runtime): finalize and recover sandbox workspace exports safely (#14402)
Serialize native workspace finalization, validate streamed archives within bounded limits, and quietly recover unsafe exports from saved results. Preserve exact allocations for exhausted transient failures and provide export-only retry without rerunning the provider.

Consolidates #14314, #14315, #14329, and #14334 while preserving the already-merged finalization label changes.
