DottaandPaperclip 4c6adcadcb test(runner-e2e): verify pending Pi input after provider loss
Add one explicit Daytona Product cell that admits the exact Pi child before faulting it, then requires production expiry of the original native question, failed-run Blocked disposition, stale-answer rejection, distinct unanswered fallback, and no replay through owned retirement. Retain the existing local scope and pending qualification.

Calibrate public lifecycle evidence, generated observer one-shot dispatch, and candidate failure classification. Runtime, provider profile, dependency closure, deadlines, and lockfiles are unchanged.

DottaandPaperclip 33a00d2f1e fix(ui): reopen last visited agent chat (#14848)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and their work.
> - Agent Chat keeps one conversation for each agent and board user.
> - The Chat sidebar entry opens the agent chooser each time.
> - A user must then find and reopen the chat they just used.
> - The browser already records recent agent chat visits by company and
user.
> - This pull request uses that record to reopen the last available
chat.
> - The chooser still serves users who have no available saved chat.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #14706 added the secondary Agent Chat navigation.

**What happened?**

The Chat sidebar entry opened the agent chooser, even after a user
opened an agent chat.

**Expected behavior**

The Chat entry should reopen the last agent chat visited by the current
user in the current company.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Enable Agent Chat and open a chat with an agent.
2. Open another page.
3. Select Chat in the sidebar.
4. Observe the agent chooser instead of the chat.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master at `0829d94af`.

**Deployment mode**

Local development, browser UI. The change also uses the same browser
storage path in authenticated mode.

## What Changed

- Use the existing recent chat record when the Chat landing route opens.
- Check saved agents against the current roster and chat history before
redirecting.
- Keep the chooser when no saved chat is available, and show a retry
state for load errors.
- Add route tests and update the Agent Chat implementation spec.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/pages/AgentChats.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/recent-agent-chats.test.ts` — 16 tests passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed.
- `pnpm exec playwright test --config tests/e2e/playwright.config.ts
tests/e2e/agent-chat-sessions.spec.ts --grep 'secondary chat navigation
preserves layout'` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed on the final
commit.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` — passed earlier in this branch;
latest-head CI completed all 47 jobs successfully.
- `pnpm test:run` reported an unrelated native runtime test failure
before it was stopped. That test and an unrelated external object
refresh test passed in isolation. CI runs the same suites on the PR.
- To check in the UI: open an agent chat, leave it, and select Chat. The
same chat should open. Clear the recent chat record or use another
company to see the chooser.

## Risks

- The recent order is stored in the browser. Clearing browser storage
returns the user to the chooser.
- An existing chat ID is stored with its visit. If the chat is removed,
the landing route skips that visit when history loads. Cross-tab storage
removal clears the identity; failed writes retain an in-tab fallback.
- The landing route waits for the agent roster and validates saved issue
IDs against chat history when available. If history fails, an active
agent chat can still open; roster or session failures show a retry
action.
- No database or API contract changes are required.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The runtime did not expose an exact API
model ID or context window. It used reasoning, repository tools, shell
commands, and code execution.

Dotta e12b25f2b4 test(runner-e2e): qualify Pi active Stop and steering 2026-10-01 10:44:04 -05:00
Dotta f6406e7e55 Merge frozen master into the rich ACP production candidate
Preserve incremental Codex checkpoints and ACP unchanged-directory ownership as separate warm-session paths. Combine cancellation commit fencing, terminal outcome recovery, and both native fixture catalogs. Keep all candidate qualification states and provider profile identities unchanged.

Validation: 629 controller unit checks, 5 heartbeat cancellation checks, 210 runner/profile/sidecar checks, 44 catalog checks; token gates, Rust source formatting, and generated protocol manifest pass. Database tests and builds intentionally deferred. Source-aliased no-emit checking is blocked only by the borrowed ACPX SessionRecord declaration lacking the already-patched cursor_prompt_usage field.

467125fafb feat(connections): one-screen connector setup with stated defaults (#14811)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents use Connections (the Apps catalog) to act in services like
Notion, GitHub, Google Workspace and Railway
> - Each connector asked the user to answer setup questions before it
went to the provider. Most of the questions already had the correct
answer selected
> - ROADMAP.md lists "simpler setup" for Apps and Connections as ongoing
work. This change continues that work
> - This pull request removes the questions that Paperclip can answer
itself. It states the defaults in one line and moves the choices behind
"Change" and onto the Permissions tab
> - The benefit is that most connectors take one click in Paperclip and
then the provider's own consent screen

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. This is the description, from the enhancement
template.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The setup flow for tool connectors in the Apps catalog.

**Subsystem affected**
Apps and Connections: `ui/src/features/connections`,
`ui/src/pages/apps`, the `packages/shared` app definitions, and the
OAuth routes in `server/src/routes/tool-access.ts`.

**Current behavior**
Every connector opened with an Access step. The step asked who can use
the connection and which agents get it, and both answers were already
selected. 18 connectors also asked "How do you want to connect?" when
Paperclip could rank the methods. The Google apps and Postman also asked
"What should Paperclip be able to do?" before sign-in. The four gateway
connectors (Zapier, Arcade, Composio, Executor) used a separate two-step
wizard. Asana was pinned to a customer-owned OAuth app, so the user had
to register an app in Asana's developer console. The "Set all" control
on the Permissions tab changed only one action. After the user approved
access, Railway's consent page showed "you can close this window" and
did not return to Paperclip.

**Proposed behavior**
One screen per connector, with one primary button. The screen states the
defaults in one sentence, for example "Connects for everyone in your
organization, available to all agents". A "Change" link opens one
Advanced panel. When the provider's metadata allows dynamic client
registration, Paperclip registers a client itself. Connecting lands on
the Permissions tab. On that tab, "Set all" changes every action in the
group.

**Reason and benefit**
The user makes fewer decisions before the connection exists. Most
choices are easier to make after the connection, on the Permissions tab,
where a change has an immediate effect.

**Breaking changes**
None. No schema or API change. Existing connections keep their settings.

## What Changed

- **No Access step.** `ConnectionSetupFlow` no longer has the Access
step. The flow shows the resolved default above the primary button and
on the completion screen. The access controls moved into one Advanced
panel. The panel opens automatically only when a setting in it is
required.
- **A default method for every app.** The flow always picks the ranked
default method. Alternate methods are in the Advanced panel. The Google
and Postman capability choice is not asked before sign-in. The
write-capable method is the default.
- **Gateway connectors.** `RemoteMcpProductionSetup` (Zapier, Arcade,
Composio, Executor) no longer has its own Access step. Its commit path
and the main commit path use one helper, `askFirstCatalogEntryIdsFor`,
for server-suggested defaults.
- **Dynamic registration from live metadata.**
`canRegisterOAuthClientDynamically` now allows registration when the
provider advertises a registration endpoint, even if the catalog entry
lists only customer-owned clients. The Asana and Linear definitions and
catalog text match live probes. Asana issues clients for loopback
callbacks only, so a hosted deployment still needs an Asana app.
- **Connection setup states.** New
`packages/shared/src/connection-setup-state.ts` sorts each method into
`instant`, `authorize`, `paste` or `register`. The gallery card verb
("Connect" or "Add key") comes from this resolver and the instance's
ownership availability.
- **Generic MCP.** The generic path no longer asks "Does it need a key?"
first. A credential challenge from the server shows the key field.
- **Permissions tab.** Each action row shows its risk level. Each group
has a "Set all" control. The control sends one change for the whole
group. Before, each row's save started from the same render, so the
saves overwrote each other. The Zapier/Arcade/Composio/Executor setup
screen had the same defect.
- **OAuth callback interstitial.** A cross-site browser navigation to
`/api/tools/oauth/callback` gets a small same-origin "Finishing your
connection…" page. That page repeats the request, and the repeat does
the code exchange. Railway's consent page replaces itself after about
two seconds, and the code exchange plus tool discovery takes longer than
that. The interstitial uses only a meta refresh, because the OAuth code
is single-use. Requests without `Sec-Fetch-Site: cross-site` take the
old path.
- **Linear registers through its MCP server.** Linear pins the console
endpoints at `linear.app`. Pinned endpoints now replace discovery only
when the method cannot register, or when the connection has an
operator-entered client. So a Linear connection now finds the
registration endpoint at `mcp.linear.app`.
- **Own-OAuth-app recovery stays on the one-click screen.** When the
method also accepts a customer-owned client, the client fields are in
the Advanced panel. The panel opens after a failed sign-in. "Try again"
resumes the draft with the operator's client.
- **E2E specs** follow the one-screen flow. The Access-step clicks are
removed, the specs open **Change** before they pick agents, and they
expect GitHub's **Add key** verb.
- **Default permissions do not change.** New connections still allow
every action. The user can set actions to Ask first or Off on the
Permissions tab.

## Verification

- `cd ui && npx vitest run src/pages/apps src/features/connections
--no-file-parallelism`
- `cd packages/shared && npx vitest run src/app-definitions.test.ts
src/connection-setup-state.test.ts`
- `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/remote-mcp-connectors.test.ts`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- New tests:
- `PermissionsPanel.group.test.tsx` checks that "Set all" sends one
change for the whole group. It fails on the old code.
  - `action-permissions.test.ts` checks the group update.
  - `connection-setup-state.test.ts` checks the four setup states.
- A server test checks that a cross-site callback gets the interstitial
and does not use the OAuth state, and that the same-origin repeat
completes the connection.
- Manual check on a hosted staging deployment. GitHub, Google Drive,
Composio, Notion, PostHog and Railway each connected from one screen and
returned to the Permissions tab. On Railway, "Set all" changed all 65
write actions, and the change remained after a reload.
- Visual changes: snapshot baselines are intentionally not updated. See
the `doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md` entry "Per-change snapshot
verification demoted to dormant (Jul 13 2026)".

## Risks

- **Fewer confirmation clicks.** Organization-wide access is the
default, and the user does not confirm it on a separate step. This was
already the preselected answer. The flow shows the default before the
user clicks and again after the connection.
- **Google write scope.** Google apps now request the write-capable
scope by default. A narrower scope needs a new sign-in.
- **Dynamic registration from live metadata.** A provider can advertise
registration and then reject a redirect URI. Asana rejects hosted
callbacks, for example. In that case registration fails, and the
customer-owned client path remains available for recovery.
- **Callback interstitial.** The OAuth callback adds one same-origin
step for cross-site browser navigations. Browsers without `Sec-Fetch-*`
headers use the old direct path.
- Chat and bot connectors (Discord, Telegram, Microsoft Teams, iMessage)
do not change.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (Anthropic), model ID `claude-opus-5-5`, used through
Claude Code with tool use (shell, file editing, browser automation) and
extended thinking. It wrote the code, the tests and this description. A
human product owner directed the work and tested it by hand.

DottaandPaperclip 33f2b3a159 fix: separate GitHub tools and code review bot connections (#14750)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Connectors catalog lets people give agents tools or connect
agents to conversations.
> - GitHub put these two uses behind one card and an extra choice.
> - People should choose the connection they need from the catalog.
> - This pull request keeps GitHub for tools and adds GitHub Code Review
Bot as a separate card.
> - Each card opens its setup directly. Both use the existing connection
code.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

GitHub connector discovery and setup.

**Current behavior**

With chat connectors enabled, GitHub opens a menu that asks whether to
use tools or create a bot. Saved tools and bots share the same catalog
entry.

**Proposed behavior**

GitHub opens tool account access. GitHub Code Review Bot opens agent
selection. Saved bots and drafts appear under the bot card.
Chat-disabled instances show only GitHub tools.

**Reason and benefit**

The catalog names the two uses and removes an extra setup choice. The
bot keeps the existing GitHub provider, credentials, endpoint IDs, setup
steps, and runtime.

**Additional context**

Related work: https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/12843 and
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/14594 established GitHub
account identity. This change preserves that tool flow. No duplicate
catalog split was found.

## What Changed

- Split the generated app definitions into GitHub tools and GitHub Code
Review Bot. Reuse the existing GitHub logo and channel method.
- Open bot setup directly, including old resume and reconnect links.
- Put existing bot endpoints and drafts under the bot card. Hide
duplicate internal chat applications.
- Keep pasted GitHub URLs mapped to the tool connection.
- Add seven Storybook states for the catalog, saved connections,
disabled chat, both setup paths, mobile, and light mode.
- Fix narrow-screen bot rows so the label cannot overlap status and
setup actions.
- Update catalog, route, browser, and API tests, plus the GitHub
connector guide.

## Verification

- [Hosted
Storybook](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/storybook/branches/codex~2Fgithub-review-connection/?path=/story/connections-github-and-code-review-bot--catalog):
seven states built from this branch. The deployment passed its
public-file verification.
- All GitHub checks pass on `d13a2cd53561645bb2a15c6f8e75a61a936d6459`.
Two optional Storybook jobs skip under their normal trigger rules; the
manual Storybook deployment passes. The branch has no merge conflicts.
- Greptile: 5/5 on the current head, with no review comments or
unresolved threads.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `pnpm check:token-gates`, and `pnpm
build-storybook` passed. The final Storybook fixture also passed UI
typecheck and the hosted build.
- Targeted catalog, URL matching, routing, grouping, brand, and chat UI
contract tests passed.
- GitHub provider browser tests: 2 passed. These cover direct tool setup
and the bot setup and management lifecycle with provider responses
mocked.
- Embedded-browser test on an isolated local instance: opened both
cards, selected an agent, saved a bot draft, and resumed the same
endpoint under the bot card after a reload.
- Storybook Tool Setup and Bot Setup assertions pass in the published
preview. Chat Disabled assertions pass locally. Inspected mobile and
light mode, including the draft-row layout and official GitHub marks.
- Local full-suite limitation: `pnpm test:run` was not clean. A
cross-company route assertion failed in the aggregate run and passed in
isolation; a workspace-runtime test reached its 30-second hook timeout.
Some isolated database reruns skipped when the embedded-PostgreSQL
availability probe failed. The local aggregate was stopped after CI
completed. The corresponding full CI suites pass all 360 tool-access
tests and all 162 workspace-runtime tests.
- No live GitHub authorization or installation was performed. The
isolated instance correctly stopped at the cloud enrollment or public
HTTPS prerequisites.

## Risks

- Low scope: catalog presentation and routing change. There is no
database migration or provider credential change.
- Existing GitHub bot URLs now open bot setup directly. The tool route
remains `/apps/connect?source=github`.
- The bot remains behind the existing chat-connectors feature flag.
Existing endpoints retain `provider: github`.
- Channel applications are represented by endpoint rows. Regression
tests cover legacy bot applications, tools, active bots, and drafts
together.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, code execution, and
embedded-browser tools. The exact deployed model ID, context window
size, and reasoning setting are not exposed to this session.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: task creation, shared contracts, database, server, runner
tools, and board UI.

**Problem or motivation**

Users must currently write a title before they can submit a detailed
task prompt. The agent has enough context to write a useful title
itself.

**Proposed solution**

Make the title optional when a description is present. Save the first
120 characters of the normalized prompt as a provisional title. Ask the
assigned agent to call `set_task_title` early. Use an atomic
provisional-title guard to preserve titles supplied or edited by users.
Keep explicit titles supported.

Related: #14543 and #14556 concern empty-title submission. This change
intentionally enables that submission when a prompt is present, instead
of requiring a title.

## What Changed

- Add the `titleNeedsGeneration` field with an idempotent migration.
Keep existing titles unchanged.
- Add `PUT /api/issues/:id/title` and the native and legacy
`set_task_title` tool. Enforce company access, active-run ownership,
shared, bounded retry receipts across native/HTTP calls, and
transactional audit logging. Refresh external-object links after commit,
with the same feature gate and plugin detectors as ordinary title edits.
- Add early naming guidance in Standard, Ask, and Plan task context.
Preserve the description, status, and assignment.
- Allow prompt-only root and child task creation, plus draft restoration
in the New Task dialog. Keep user titles supported.
- Add an opt-in Product E2E suite for prompt-only Standard and Ask
tasks, plus an explicit-title control. It checks actual provider calls
within the first five tools, persisted state, audit attribution, and the
reloaded UI.
- Preserve a closed vocabulary of API key maintenance phrases in
declared prose while rejecting opaque credential suffixes. Add one
bounded naming retry after wording is rejected, without treating the
rejected call as a saved title.
- Repair the native cleanup receipt check exposed during full
verification: accept matching input digests, retain legacy input checks,
and reject conflicting receipts.

## Verification

- Live Product E2E on `f43478473800e3a46b85c5ee79677efdb15108e7`: **3/3
passed** with native Codex `gpt-5.4-mini`, first attempts only,
automatic retries disabled. Standard and Ask each saved “Rotate expired
API key” on their first tool call, with matching persisted state and a
single same-run audit entry. The explicit-title control retained its
user title with zero title writes. All three verified the reloaded
browser UI.
- Campaign: `local-2026-09-30T21-30-11-021Z`. Earlier failed campaigns
are retained separately; they exposed credential-prose handling and
prompted the naming recovery fix. No failed result was regraded or
deleted.
- Reproduce with `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --id
task-titles.runner-codex-mini.local.prompt-title-standard --id
task-titles.runner-codex-mini.local.prompt-title-ask --id
task-titles.runner-codex-mini.local.preserve-explicit-title
--max-automatic-retries 0` and an authorized provider key.
- Full `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed on the latest commit.
The runner build used the configured external eval source tree.
- Product E2E unit suite: **61 files, 818 tests passed**; E2E typecheck
and UI token gates passed.
- Title API/native regressions cover prompt-only and explicit child
creation, user edits, ownership/company isolation, external reference
refresh, cross-surface retry replay, and the 64-key limit without
receipt eviction. All passed. Prompt-context coverage: **44 tests
passed**.
- Rust credential regressions: **35 tests passed**, including benign
maintenance qualifiers and opaque credential rejection in every declared
prose field. Catalog/report reconciliation: **28 tests passed**. Native
recovery: **560 tests passed**.
- Broad local `pnpm test:run`: **14,555 tests passed** in the general
server group; two suites failed to initialize embedded PostgreSQL and
the existing 40,000-file Git streaming stress test exceeded its
300-second macOS timeout. All three suites then passed in isolation (**5
tests passed**) without code or timeout changes. The original full local
command exited nonzero and is not being represented as a clean full run.
- Latest-head GitHub checks are green: **53 passed, 4 skipped, zero
failed or pending**, including all test shards and the canary packaging
dry run. Greptile reviewed the same commit at **5/5**, with zero
unresolved review threads.

## Risks

- The additive database field must reach the server and UI together. The
migration uses `IF NOT EXISTS` and defaults existing tasks to a final
title.
- Title generation depends on the assigned agent running. Tasks without
a run keep their provisional title.
- Live qualification covers the native Codex path in Standard and Ask
modes. API/legacy and Plan behavior have deterministic coverage.
- The credential-prose exception validates the entire suffix against a
closed maintenance vocabulary. Unknown suffixes, assignments, quoted
values, credential prefixes, and diagnostics retain strict checks.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. The exact deployment ID and context window are not exposed in
this session. The live eval uses the native Codex `gpt-5.4-mini`
profile.

DottaandPaperclip ad55d0a281 fix(connections): repair personal credentials and request write access (#14739)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use Apps through a gateway that checks identity, company
access, and action policies.
> - Personal pasted credentials can point to company secrets. Setup can
show success while the gateway rejects every call.
> - Several OAuth methods also omit the scopes needed for their
supported write actions.
> - This pull request gives setup, health checks, and invocation the
same credential rules. Owners repair existing connections by
reconnecting.
> - New connections request reviewed permissions for their supported
actions. Read-only choices remain available under Advanced.
> - Agents can use the connections people give them, while existing
consent, identity boundaries, and action restrictions remain enforced.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14009 and #14008. This addresses the personal-credential defect.
The separate GitHub organization-identity selection defect is outside
this change.

Related work: #13942 fixed part of new personal-key setup. #14200
independently fixes legacy personal reconnect and protects managed-agent
profile credentials during removal. This PR covers that ownership
invariant across key and secret-URL setup, reconnect, health, discovery,
and invocation, and keeps owner reconnect as the repair path. #14059
tracks requested versus provider-asserted OAuth scopes; it remains
separate work. I searched open PRs and issues for Zapier, Airtable
scopes, connector writes, and personal credential failures.

**What happened?**

A Zapier secret URL saved through personal setup can become a company
secret referenced by a user grant. Health checks bypass the gateway's
ownership check, so the connection appears healthy but calls fail with
`grant_credential_invalid`. Custom-header paths can also receive a
duplicate `credentials.` prefix. Omitted OAuth scopes make write access
depend on provider defaults.

**Expected behavior**

Personal invocation credentials belong to the selected user. Setup,
health, and actual calls enforce the same rule. New connections request
documented permissions for supported read and write actions. Existing
tokens gain no permissions without provider consent.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Connect Zapier or a generic secret URL with the personal identity.
2. Allow an agent to use the connection and complete setup.
3. Invoke a tool through a run-scoped gateway. The legacy layout fails
ownership validation despite successful setup.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The implementation started from
`44736c9c7c67b7b646ead9d51721db10f5b83835` and was rebased onto master
at `94e8dec56`.

**Deployment mode**

Built from source. Regression tests use isolated PostgreSQL fixtures and
controlled MCP transports.

## What Changed

- Share credential writing, ownership validation, and canonical paths
across initial setup, resume, reconnect, rotation, health, discovery,
and gateway calls. Keep OAuth client-registration secrets separate from
invocation credentials.
- Existing personal connections with company-scoped credentials require
owner reconnect with a fresh key or secret URL. Reconnect creates a
correctly owned value and updates the existing grant and declarations.
There is no automatic ownership backfill or new startup hook.
- Preserve PostgreSQL timestamp precision when reconnect checks whether
a grant changed. Previously, converting the timestamp to a JavaScript
Date could reject reconnect with a false concurrent-change error.
- Protect credentials used by other grants, connections, bindings,
managed-agent profiles, routine triggers, or secret proposals from
connection removal.
- Review all 117 tool methods, including 84 OAuth methods. Record
explicit scopes or documented provider-default exceptions with official
evidence. Add Airtable's seven scopes, Hugging Face repository/job
scopes, and other documented MCP permissions.
- Prefer available write-capable methods. Put explicit read-only choices
under Advanced. Explain pasted-key permissions and offer reconnect for
missing OAuth consent. Preserve existing grants, policies, Google
availability gates, and curated scope allowlists.
- Reconnect generic secret URLs and custom headers using their stored
credential fields. Refresh the catalog after setup, correct reconnect
feedback and error guidance, and let Cancel exit invalid setup while
Save & exit retains draft-saving behavior.
- Apply ownership checks to the new GitHub repository/skill connection
picker. Align the permission audit with the Google scope reductions
merged on master.
- Add run-scoped gateway, ownership, owner-reconnect, OAuth URL,
insufficient-scope, UI, and catalog-wide regression coverage. Update the
connector playbook and permission audit.

## Verification

Latest commit `97bc0b86e0eae0ec892e4ac44beff1a66164b20e` passes all
CI/status gates (55 completed check runs, no failures or pending checks)
and has a completed Greptile review at **5/5 with no outstanding
findings**. GitHub reports the PR as mergeable/CLEAN.

- **Embedded browser:** used the actual server and built UI from this
worktree, a fresh isolated database, and local HTTP MCP fixtures.
Completed personal bearer-key, secret-URL, and custom-header setup;
reproduced the legacy ownership failure; reconnected through the owner’s
form; and completed writes afterward. Read-back was verified for
bearer-key and secret-URL connections. Public organization-wide setup
appeared immediately in Browse without reload. Zapier URL
validation/Cancel and Google’s enrollment gate were also exercised.
- **Persistence and invocation:** verified user ownership, canonical
`credentials.authorization` / `remote.url` / `headers.X-Api-Key`
declarations, and unchanged connection/grant identity. The old company
secrets retain their ownership. Separate HTTP calls through an actual
run-scoped gateway session completed a write and read-back.
- **Backend coverage:** the final gateway suite passes all 82 cases,
including catalog Zapier and generic inline reconnect. It checks
company/user isolation, canonical declarations, same-endpoint URL
validation, fresh credentials, retained restrictions, and real gateway
read/write execution using fixture transport. A timestamp with
PostgreSQL microseconds covers the former false reconnect conflict.
- **Local checks:** 368 catalog, gateway, repository, and UI tests
passed before the final extra Zapier case; 49 GitHub skill access tests
also passed. All three Apps browser regressions pass, including
reconnect through the actual form and catalog visibility without reload.
Full `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, server typecheck after the final
patch, and token gates passed. Full tool-access service runs hit varying
15-second Google fixture timeouts; both affected cases and the updated
reconnect assertion pass in isolation (3 tests). The complete test
matrix passes in CI on this head.
- **Verification limits:** no live provider account was available for
Zapier/Airtable/OAuth consent or account-bound write proof. Public
metadata and local fixtures do not establish provider consent. The
original development database clone failed on a pre-existing missing
`tool_connections_transport_check` constraint; browser acceptance used a
fresh isolated database created by the normal CLI onboarding flow.

## Risks

- Existing broken personal connections stay unusable until their owner
reconnects. Health, discovery, and invocation return an actionable
ownership error; startup does not rewrite credential ownership.
- Scope changes affect new authorization requests. Providers may still
require resource selection, account roles, paid plans, or app
verification. Existing consent and action restrictions remain unchanged.
- Shared credentials are retained rather than reassigned or revoked.
Provider-default exceptions and unavailable live checks are documented
in `doc/connections/CONNECTOR-PERMISSION-AUDIT.md`.
- No new endpoint, database table, lockfile change, or CI workflow
change is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, code editing, shell
execution, web research, and browser tools. The exact deployment model
ID and context window were not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip cbd278dc03 fix(interactions): derive chat recipients and validate explicit users (#14742)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and their work.
> - Agents use saved questions to get human input and continue the same
task.
> - The standard question example recently told models to copy a user
ID.
> - A model can omit an identity prefix and create a question its
intended recipient cannot answer.
> - Agent Chat already knows the conversation owner, so the server can
supply that identity.
> - This pull request removes the blanket instruction and validates
explicit recipients before saving.
> - Ordinary questions stay simple, and explicit addressing remains
available for decisions that need a particular person.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14707, #14188. Related: #14238 handles legacy email recipients;
this change prevents invalid recipients in new cards and retains exact
ID matching.

**What happened?**

A model copied a Cloud user ID without its prefix into
`addresseeUserId`. Creation succeeded. The intended user's answer then
failed the exact recipient check.

**Expected behavior**

Ordinary chat questions use the saved conversation owner. A task may
optionally name a specific recipient. The API rejects an unknown or
unauthorized recipient before it creates a card.

**Steps to reproduce**

Create a chat question for a user whose ID is `paperclip-id:example`.
Supply `example` as the addressee. Before this change, creation accepts
the invalid recipient and the owner cannot answer. With this change,
creation returns 422. Omitting the field saves the full owner ID and
allows that owner to answer.

## What Changed

- Remove `addresseeUserId` from standard question examples and remove
the blanket requester-ID instruction.
- Derive the recipient of ordinary chat questions from the persisted
conversation owner. Reject conflicting explicit user IDs.
- Keep explicit task recipients optional. Validate supplied user IDs
with the existing board mutation policy, including company, viewer, and
Cloud restrictions.
- Preserve explicit agent routing, connector intents, confirmations,
exact recipient checks, idempotent retries, and no-login local-board
authority in local-trusted mode.
- Update the blocker grader to accept an omitted recipient and verify
the actual requester answered.
- Add database and HTTP tests for prefixed identities, denied
recipients, concurrent retries, saved answers, and response delivery.

## Verification

- Database interaction service suite: 90 tests passed, including
implicit local-board creation/answering and authenticated/Cloud denial.
- Interaction HTTP route suite: 84 tests passed.
- Affected interaction/native/connector/documentation suites: 231 tests
passed across six files after valid-user fixtures were updated.
- Resolver and interaction unit suites: 29 tests passed.
- Product E2E unit/calibration suite: 793 tests passed; Product E2E
typecheck and blocker catalog discovery passed.
- Generated API-reference and capability contract checks passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` did not finish green: its initial
general-server pass had 14,416 passing assertions, one unrelated
native-resume assertion failure on macOS, and three teardowns from an
intermediate fixture cleanup fixed above. Separate broad local groups
also encountered timeout/live-port failures under host load. Local UI
(7,026), CLI (502), shared (817), and skills-catalog (20) tests passed;
the complete final-head CI matrix is the broad verification gate.
- After two CI cold-start readiness timeouts, a separate test-only
commit gives the first exposure lifecycle fixture the existing normal
30-second readiness budget. Its real HTTP, ordering, and cleanup
assertions remain intact; the targeted case and final Linux CI shard
passed. Production deadlines are unchanged.
- A separate OpenCode fixture failed twice on GitHub-hosted Ubuntu
because its cached Node executable was group-writable; the same case
passed on AWS runners. The fixture now qualifies its own Linux copy with
mode `0500` and the actual copy digest. Host files and production
security checks are unchanged. The focused macOS case passed; the new
Linux-copy branch also passed on the final AWS-hosted Linux runner
(1,125 passing Runner tests, 3 skipped). The final run was not on a
GitHub-hosted runner.
- Final-head [CI run
36762078176](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36762078176)
passed for `116b968b24fa0a8c5724a7bf96e73a8dda5f0425`: 54 successful
checks and two conditional Storybook skips, with no pending or failed
checks. The 27 general/serialized test jobs reported 28,635 passing
tests. Typecheck, build, Runner, browser E2E, and Canary gates passed.
Greptile reviewed that exact head at 5/5; both review threads are
resolved, with no open follow-ups.
- No live provider replay is claimed by this PR.

## Risks

- New explicitly addressed cards reject users who cannot mutate the
issue, including viewers, inactive members, and invalid IDs. Callers
that supplied invalid recipients must correct their request.
- Existing addressed cards are not rewritten. Existing authorization
checks remain strict.
- Chat inference applies only to questions without an agent addressee.
Connector intents and governed confirmations retain their own recipient
paths.
- No schema change or migration is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 (exact serving variant and context window are not
exposed in this environment). Used reasoning, tool use, code editing,
and test execution.

DottaandPaperclip b54b2dc35c fix: preserve warm Codex turns with incremental managed file checkpoints (#14735)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and keeps their instructions and files
durable.
> - Native Codex runners can keep a process alive between compatible
turns.
> - Managed file collection stopped that process after each turn, which
defeated warm reuse.
> - Agent folders can contain large images and other files, so full
copies on every turn are expensive.
> - This change keeps one managed directory for the live session and
saves only file changes after each turn.
> - Ownership, authorization, instruction changes, and process
retirement still control when reuse is safe.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #13710 introduced native warm session reuse. This fixes managed
file collection that still forced those sessions to stop. No duplicate
open PR or issue was found.

**What happened?**

With managed instructions and warm native Codex enabled, consecutive
turns reused a Daytona sandbox but started a new runner process each
time. The managed directory collector required process termination
before saving files.

**Expected behavior**

Compatible turns keep the same process and managed `AGENT_HOME`. Each
completed turn saves added, changed, and deleted files before the next
turn starts. Unchanged large files do not transfer again.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Use a native Codex agent with managed instructions and a reusable
Daytona environment.
2. Enable warm session reuse and run three turns on the same task.
3. Write a large binary on the first turn, edit a small note on each
turn, and delete a file on the second turn.
4. Compare process identity across turns and read the canonical files
through the public agent-files API.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on `d30b03bd8c17604cdab1533eeeeb087aba30e8b1`.

**Deployment mode**

Local server with remote Daytona execution; cloud native runner uses the
same path.

## What Changed

- Retain the managed directory only for the verified owner of a live
native Codex session.
- Checkpoint each completed turn before releasing the session for reuse.
Retry unstable captures, then stop and collect when a warm checkpoint
cannot be validated.
- Compare metadata and cached hashes, stream only changed file payloads,
record deletions, and validate path, content, quota, and authorization
before saving.
- Rotate sessions when canonical files, loaded instructions,
credentials, or launch policy change. Fence stale collection and cleanup
callbacks from later owners.
- Keep cleanup and recovery aware of the current session owner. Recheck
canonical files under the writer lock at handoff, attach the successor
collector before fallible bookkeeping, and emit one final save receipt
on checkpoint fallback. Preserve storage warnings across unchanged
checkpoints.
- Add regression coverage and a three-turn Daytona test with independent
public API file checks, an unchanged 8 MiB binary, deletion checks, and
strict process identity checks.
- Document checkpoint consistency, lifecycle behavior, and local run-log
counters.
- Replace a timing assumption in the Daytona teardown test with explicit
transfer-arrival gates after CI exposed an unset release callback.

## Verification

- Full local `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed. Server checks
were repeated after the final storage-warning fix.
- Runner E2E typecheck and 749 runner E2E unit tests passed.
- Focused file checkpoint, directory ownership, instruction collection,
native session, and merge tests passed. After review fixes, the
managed-directory and native-session suites passed 550 tests, including
intervening canonical edits, same-run fresh restore, failed handoff
collection, and one-call fallback collection. Server typecheck passed
again. The Daytona plugin suite passed 218 tests. The quota-warning
regression failed before the fix and passed afterward.
- Three real Daytona campaigns passed before the final handoff review
fixes. The latest kept PID 547 across all three turns. The first
checkpoint copied 8,388,635 bytes; the next two copied 36 and 54 bytes.
Public API reads verified the binary, note contents, and deletion after
every turn. Test cleanup deleted the sandbox.
- The final head was also deployed to an isolated cloud staging instance
and passed three UI-triggered native Codex turns with managed
instructions. All three retained the same process ID/start time, native
session, provider session, runner instance, and Daytona sandbox.
Checkpoints copied 8,388,643 bytes on turn 1, then only 52 and 78 bytes
on turns 2 and 3; those warm captures also hashed only 52 and 78 bytes.
Independent canonical API reads verified every byte of the unchanged 8
MiB binary and the exact note contents after every turn; the deleted
file returned 404 after turns 2 and 3. After restoring the original
lifecycle and agent-auth configuration, removing the temporary secret,
pausing the test agent, and deleting both test sandboxes, independent
canonical API reads still verified the entire binary, the final 78-byte
three-line note, and the deletion. The native runner flag remained
enabled and the final serving revision remained the PR head.
- Two earlier staging attempts are preserved as failures and are
excluded from the acceptance result: a saved ChatGPT login failed with a
provider routing 401, and its subsequent stopped-sandbox retry failed
before provider startup with a closed-lease admission error. The
successful campaign used a fresh sandbox and a temporary encrypted
API-key binding. The stopped-lease retry remains unexplained; this
campaign does not establish recovery of that failed sandbox.
- All [Paperclip CI
gates](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36750397355)
pass on `26ef2ef56a389259246809805c0b34a4747eb86b`, including full test
partitions, build, typecheck, runner verification, E2E shards, and the
Canary clean public-npm install. Greptile reviewed that exact head at
5/5 with no unresolved review threads or outstanding findings.
- Full local repository coverage used the existing CI partitions, but
the 40,000-file Git streaming stress test timed out and its local retry
was interrupted by macOS thermal emergency sleep; this is not a green
full local suite claim. The exact stress test passed on the final head
in [CI server shard
2/12](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36750397355/job/110008294290),
in 111.9 seconds.
- Repeat the live test with configured credentials and a Linux runner
artifact: `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --id
daytona-warm-continuity.runner-codex.daytona.warm-three-turn`.

## Risks

- This is a file-level checkpoint, not an atomic snapshot of the whole
folder. Background writes after a capture are saved by the next
checkpoint or final stopped collection.
- Metadata scans still visit all paths. Modified files transfer in full;
unchanged files do not rehash or transfer.
- Incorrect ownership or reuse could collect the wrong directory. Run
ownership fences, current authorization, stable capture validation, and
stopped collection fallbacks are covered by tests.
- Warm reuse remains opt-in. No database migration or fleet default
changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, code editing, tool use, and
test execution. The exact serving model ID and context-window size are
not exposed by this session.

DottaandPaperclip 647e4adf27 fix(native): bind operator Stop to caller cancellation intent
Reserve an optional board request UUID under the run lock and retain it
through default Stop joins and native dispatch. Reject prior or competing
intents and require the same actor for idempotent retries.

Bind the Copilot denial fixture to its exact request and audited intent,
with versioned causal receipts and negative controls for earlier Stop.

DottaandPaperclip 3c561642b4 fix(chat): resolve approvals and preserve unanswered questions (#14613)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents ask for decisions and optional details through cards in chat.
> - A clear approval in a message can leave the matching card pending.
> - An unanswered question can also block an unrelated later reply.
> - Decisions need a saved source message, while optional questions need
to remain answerable in history.
> - This pull request records conversational decisions and lets users
move on from questions and answer them later.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Native Claude and Codex could act on approval in chat while the original
approval card stayed pending. Pending question forms stayed above the
composer, were absent from history, and could suppress later chat
replies. A late native question answer could wait for a finished run to
reconnect.

**Expected behavior**

The active agent records a clear approval or refusal against the exact
card and user message. Ambiguous replies do not grant consent. Users can
send another message without answering a question. The question remains
pending in history and can be reopened and answered later. The saved
answer reaches the agent.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Ask an agent to propose work with a confirmation card, then approve
it in chat.
2. Check that the original card records that approval before work
starts.
3. Ask an interactive question, send an unrelated message, and reload.
4. Open the unanswered question from history and submit an answer.

Related work: #14408 added completion delivery. #14607 tests completion
reporting turns. Neither records conversational answers on approval
cards.

## What Changed

- Add a confirmation endpoint backed by a user comment, with schema
validation, OpenAPI discovery, and native Plan-mode access. Ask mode
remains read-only.
- Check company, active run, actor, current session, message provenance,
revision, and resolver policy. Save the decision and audit in one
transaction. Retries do not repeat effects. Emit resolution telemetry
after commit.
- Give fresh and resumed chat turns the actual pending confirmation
identities. Teach agents to save clear conversational decisions before
acting and to clarify ambiguity.
- Keep unanswered Agent Chat questions as compact history entries. A
newer user message closes the old form. Question cards never contribute
to composer pending counts or navigation, including after dismissing a
fresh form. The history card is the sole reminder; clicking it restores
that exact form and draft.
- Preserve Agent Chat questions when later messages or questions arrive.
Historical ordinary inputs no longer gate later chat replies.
Current-run requests, task execution, and governed approvals keep their
gates. Remove the special acknowledgement-publication proof helpers that
this rule replaces.
- Route answers to finished native runs through durable fresh-wake
delivery, with existing idempotency and source-question context. Settle
late replies against contiguous completed conversation turns and freeze
their history replay; failed, unhandled, and newly arriving messages
remain actionable.
- Add real-component Storybook scenarios, database and UI regressions,
and a three-turn native Claude/Codex E2E case. Capture distinct,
UI-ready screenshots and report the individual assertions.

## Verification

- Focused decision/publication/UI regressions after merging master: 288
passed; subsequent UI draft, failed-send, and conversation checks: 199
passed.
- Native question and durable delivery regressions: 106 passed,
including all four terminal run states and exactly-once late delivery.
Seven targeted regressions fail against the original implementation and
pass with the fix.
- Latest conversation/decision/native-delivery regressions after the
master merge: 121 passed. Covers completed progress, missing or failed
intervening turns, new messages during a late reply, stale sessions, and
frozen retry/replay boundaries. Four new assertions fail before the
ordering fix.
- E2E support suite after the master merge: 792 passed. Negative
controls reject expired cards, wrong questions/answers, stale or missing
replies, unrelated clarification forms, and unexpected tasks.
- The embedded-browser walkthrough caught one additional defect:
dismissing a fresh question still showed a composer badge. Both Cancel
and close-button regressions failed before the fix. The fix at
`65f2ade12` passes 170 chat-thread tests and 792 E2E support tests.
After merging master, 232 chat-thread/confirmation tests, server/UI
typechecks, and token gates pass. The preview and two-provider live E2E
pass at `e5512a206`; Greptile is 5/5 with zero unresolved threads at
that commit. All 55 checks are now successful at `e5512a206` (four
conditional checks skipped), including the aggregate verification gate
and clean-install canary test. The first attempt was interrupted by
simultaneous CI worker shutdowns; one failed-job rerun passed without
code changes.
- [Published
Storybook](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/storybook/branches/codex~2Fchat-approval-resolution/?path=/story/chat-comments-agent-chat-unanswered-questions--moved-on):
nine real-component scenarios. Manually exercised move on, reopen,
preserve draft, answer later, answer one of multiple questions, and a
custom mobile answer in the embedded browser. Retested fresh Cancel and
close-button dismissal in the updated build, then reopened and submitted
the preserved Green selection and inspected its answered receipt. Static
preview has no live model/backend; its callbacks are fixture responses.
- [First live
campaign](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36714504406-1/)
reproduced the late-answer completion-state defect on both providers
despite correct saved answers and acknowledgements. It also exposed a
valid imperative clarification rejected by the old oracle. Both issues
are fixed with regression controls; this failing run is retained as
evidence.
- [Four-cell
qualification](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36717804064-1/)
passed 4/4 at `2bf8a1009`: unanswered-question return and ambiguous
confirmation, each on native Claude and Codex. Inspected saved state,
source-message decisions, visible cards, and agent replies. Both
late-answer chats settled to waiting; no unrequested tasks were created.
[Final branch
rerun](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36719666238-1/)
passed 2/2 at `142630720`: the same unanswered-question journey after
merging master, plus an additional screenshot and browser assertion for
the actual late-answer acknowledgement.
- [Composer-reminder
E2E](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36727006818-1/)
passed 2/2 at `5b62c52d9`: native Claude and Codex, three turns each,
with explicit no-badge assertions before and after reload. Inspected
saved pending/answered state, both screenshots with a clear composer,
and actual Blue acknowledgements; all five behavioral matchers passed
per provider and neither created tasks. Cost coverage is partial; this
is bounded workflow qualification.
- [Fresh-dismissal
E2E](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36742773318-1/)
passed 2/2 at `e5512a206`: native Claude and Codex, including fresh
Cancel, clear composer, reopen, unrelated message, reload, late Blue
answer, and actual agent acknowledgement. All five behavioral matchers
pass per provider. Inspected the fresh-dismissal screenshots and saved
pending/answered identity; neither created tasks. Cost coverage is
partial (4/6 runs).
- Prior evidence remains available in [the earlier
campaign](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36642252725-1/).
Its early loading screenshot and overwritten final capture prompted the
UI-ready, distinct screenshot fixes.

## Risks

- The model interprets intent. The server verifies permission and
provenance; it does not infer consent from text. Ambiguous and unrelated
replies are not approvals.
- Historical questions can accumulate. They remain visible, pending, and
answerable; no automatic answer or expiry is invented.
- The change to completion gates is scoped to Agent Chat and ordinary
historical inputs. Current-turn and governed approvals retain their
existing controls.
- Live qualification is limited to the selected stories. Broader native
onboarding finalization remains separate work.
- No database migration. Telemetry adds no fields or values; the
contract and README document the commit boundary. Privacy review was
requested on the PR.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser-test orchestration. The exact model ID and
context-window size are not exposed to this session.
