DottaandPaperclip 9ef434fe79 docs: expose feature map IDs and add a recipe index (#16987)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Its feature map describes user journeys and their verification
paths.
> - The map already defines feature IDs and full capability IDs.
> - The README and child pages did not show those IDs consistently.
> - Readers need those IDs to connect issues, tests, stories, and
evidence.
> - This pull request adds a recipe index and displays the existing IDs.
> - The benefit is clear references across the product and agent access
maps.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Issue type**

Missing documentation.

**Where is the issue?**

`maps/feature-map/README.md`, the child recipes, and their agent access
companions.

**What's wrong?**

The README sends readers to Storybook to browse features. Child pages
show local keys, such as `installation`, without the full
`plugins/installation` ID. Readers must inspect the generator to find
the full reference.

**Suggested fix**

List recipe links and existing IDs in the README. Show each feature ID
and full capability ID in its child pages. Explain capability IDs and
entry-point references. Keep the current keys and anchors.

Related work: Refs #15288. Refs #16052. Refs #15983. No duplicate open
PR or issue was found by title search.

## What Changed

- Add an index grouped by feature area. It lists every recipe, feature
ID, and full capability ID.
- Explain how IDs are formed and used in issues, tests, Storybook, and
evidence.
- Add feature IDs to all product recipes and agent access companions.
- Show full capability IDs beside recipe keys and below access and
Storybook guidance headings.
- Preserve existing keys, heading anchors, and generated ID values. Keep
the latest upstream company capability in the index.

## Verification

- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` passes for 34 feature families and 175
capability IDs.
- `node --test scripts/check-maps.test.mjs
scripts/storybook-feature-index.test.mjs` passes all 17 tests.
- `node scripts/storybook-feature-index.mjs` passes on this checkout and
generates the feature indexes and overview inputs.
- `git diff --check` passes.
- A source comparison confirms that the README matches the recipe index.
After removal of the added ID labels, all 68 child pages match the
upstream prose and headings.
- Full workspace checks were attempted: `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm
test:run`, and `pnpm build`. They could not start because the local pnpm
wrapper could not fetch and verify the pinned pnpm 9.15.4 release. This
checkout also has no workspace dependencies installed.
- `node scripts/storybook-catalog.mjs` could not run because
`storybook/internal/csf-tools` is not installed. The direct map and
index checks above pass without that dependency.
- Remote typecheck, release-registry, and full build checks passed. The
first attempts of [server shard
3/12](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39460473910/job/118758430448)
and [server shard
12/12](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39460473910/job/118758429932)
stopped after their runners received a shutdown signal. The test steps
were canceled. GitHub rejects the rerun request with HTTP 403: "The
workflow run containing this job is already running". Five other CI jobs
remain active. The next action is to rerun the two interrupted shards
after workflow 39460473910 ends. No application changes were made to
address these runner interruptions.
- To inspect the result, open the feature-map README, follow a recipe
link, and compare its full capability IDs with its access companion.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change updates map documentation only. It changes no
application code or ID schema.
- The readable README index and child labels repeat source IDs. Keep
them aligned when a capability changes.
- Generated capability descriptions now include the visible ID prefix.
Generated IDs, labels, navigation order, and verification fields remain
the same.
- Full local workspace checks and catalog generation remain unverified
for the environment reasons above.

> For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and
discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, model `gpt-6.1-sol`, with a 475,000-token context window
and `xhigh` reasoning effort. The model used local file tools, shell
commands, and GitHub CLI access.

DottaandPaperclip 9225796a4e fix(runner): page oversized assigned tool results (#16980)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native agents receive assigned app-tool results through the durable
Runner protocol.
> - The assigned-tool bridge returned complete provider responses
without a size bound.
> - A large response could exceed the encrypted command limit after the
upstream call had completed.
> - The provider then waited for a result that the controller could not
deliver.
> - This pull request saves large governed responses and returns a small
reference with a scoped page reader.
> - Agents can retrieve the full result without repeating the original
action.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Large app-tool responses could leave native tool calls pending even
though the upstream service completed. The durable command limit is
about 510 KiB. The assigned-tool bridge did not account for that limit.
A 720,048-byte regression response failed the delivery-size assertion
before this change.

**Expected behavior**

Deliver a bounded response and a way to retrieve all saved content. Keep
the original action at one execution. Preserve task, agent, company,
responsible-user, and current-run access checks.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a native agent with an assigned tool that returns more than 510
KiB of JSON.
2. Let the upstream tool complete.
3. Observe that the original bridge returns the oversized object
directly, so the durable controller cannot queue its result.

Related: #14734 preserves uncertain tool outcomes across shutdown and
restart. This change keeps that protection. #16517 handles native MCP
content projection on a different transport; it does not bound native
assigned-tool results.

## What Changed

- Save governed assigned-tool responses above 500,000 encoded bytes
using the existing response asset storage, quotas, and audit path.
- Add `read_tool_result` for UTF-8 JSON pages from the same task and
agent. Each encoded page is capped at 500,000 bytes, including JSON
escaping and metadata, with remaining content available through the next
byte offset. It works when generic API tools are disabled.
- Reuse existing authenticated asset reads and responsible-user checks.
Retrieval does not invoke the upstream service.
- Preserve uncertain delivery if storage fails after an action
completes.
- Add regression, fault, authorization, and opt-in live Codex checks.
Document the transport and access contract.

## Verification

- Red: the original integration regression returned 720,048 bytes
against unchanged production code and failed its bounded-response
assertion. The follow-up regression also showed that a 480 KB result was
unnecessarily saved under the original 24 KiB policy.
- Green: results through 500,000 encoded bytes stay inline. Larger
responses are saved in full. Real HTTP integration tests reconstruct the
complete Unicode result after controller recreation in exactly two
pages, in both standard and low-trust configurations, with one upstream
execution.
- The encoded-size boundary and escape-heavy Unicode tests verify that
every page fits 500,000 bytes, cursors advance on valid UTF-8
boundaries, and concatenating pages exactly reconstructs the original
JSON. Storage-failure tests preserve an uncertain outcome without
repeating the action.
- The focused unit/API run passes 1,957 tests; the changed real HTTP
tests pass. `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `node
scripts/check-maps.mjs`, and `git diff --check` pass.
- Real Codex acceptance passes with `gpt-6.1-sol` through Codex CLI
0.160.0 and native Runner, on macOS ARM64 with `low_trust_review` and
generic API tools disabled. Codex requests every page in order, receives
all 660,098 original bytes, and returns the final verification field.
The two encoded pages are 500,000 and 160,543 bytes; the upstream
operation executes once. Runner closes successfully in a 34.1-second
probe. Only the disposable database's connection/worker counts were
reduced to fit the host's remaining semaphore capacity.
- The native-PRP regression also passes with escape-heavy Unicode pages
over 1 MB in total and a separate inline result containing 200,000
backslashes. A scripted provider verifies both complete results by
SHA-256. It proves the intermediate text wrapper can exceed 700 KB
because the native transport decodes it before queuing the bounded PRP
result; every result object stays within 500,000 encoded bytes. Native
binaries are required for the local run, preventing a silent skip.
- A second real-Codex probe with escaped Unicode, quotes, backslashes,
newlines, and NULs also passes: every original byte of a 720,098-byte
JSON response is retrieved in two encoded pages of 500,000 and 460,543
bytes. The model returns the final field, the upstream call executes
once, and Runner closes in 32.6 seconds. This uses the same production
source with only the synthetic fixture content varied.
- The live probe exercises real PRP, persistence, and authenticated
asset reads. It does not claim the original staging task resumed or full
heartbeat checkpoint acceptance.
- Earlier broader local testing passed 103 tests but could not start the
second database for the existing `rejects a stale source-run question
over public HTTP and accepts it from the next run` test. Extending its
timeout exposed PostgreSQL initialization failure on this
semaphore-exhausted host. The earlier local `pnpm test:run` attempt was
interrupted and is not claimed as passing. Full CI passes on current
head `cd32237ee5429765b8f349402ac3c79cceec3e6b`. GitHub reports 55
successful checks, two skipped Storybook checks, and one neutral
Paperclip agent review. Greptile is 5/5 on this head with no review
threads.
- Additional Paperclip agent review is incomplete: it withdrew the
earlier double-escaping finding after inspecting the native regression,
found no new actionable defects, and reported stalled large-source reads
prevented independent inspection of the transport decoder. Its neutral
assessment is [recorded
here](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/16980#issuecomment-6295579705).
This limitation remains separate from the passing local native
transport, real Codex acceptance, full CI, and Greptile results.

## Risks

- Large responses now consume existing response-storage quota and
require page reads. Larger pages use more provider context. Results are
preserved in full; each encoded page leaves about 22 KiB below the PRP
command limit for the command envelope.
- A storage failure after execution retains an uncertain delivery
outcome. The bridge must not report that the upstream action failed or
invite a replay.
- The dedicated reader grants access only to saved responses for the
current task and agent. The asset route also checks the original
responsible user.
- Runner command limits and receipt rules remain unchanged. No migration
or separate Runner protocol rollout is required.
- This PR does not deploy the repair or resume an existing blocked task.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6), with reasoning, tool use, and code execution. The
exact serving model ID and context-window size are not exposed in this
session. The opt-in acceptance probe requests `gpt-6.1-sol` through
Codex CLI 0.160.0.

DottaandPaperclip 7ec6e1a237 fix(runner): explain invalid arguments for assigned tools (#16905)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip coordinates agents through authorized tools.
> - The native runner validates arguments before it dispatches a tool
call.
> - Schema failures give repair guidance for only five built-in tools.
> - Assigned-tool discovery receives a generic rejection, so an agent
can mistake invalid arguments for missing access.
> - This PR applies the existing safe schema feedback to every
authorized tool.
> - Agents can correct their calls while authorization, approval, and
replay checks remain in force.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An invalid `paperclip_search_assigned_tools` call returned only
`Paperclip rejected this semantic tool call`. The call never reached the
assigned-tool gateway. The same feedback gap affects arbitrary assigned
app tools.

**Expected behavior**

Identify argument validation as the cause. Return bounded schema
locations and ask the provider to correct its arguments. Do not expose
submitted values or grant access to unassigned tools.

**Steps to reproduce**

Prepare an authorized discovery tool. Submit an invalid query or
optional argument through the native runner. Observe the generic error
before this fix. Correct the arguments and confirm one dispatch after
this fix.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master at `4970d5ed3d`. The incident did not retain its
rejected arguments, so the tests cover representative invalid inputs
rather than claim to replay that exact payload.

**Deployment mode**

Native runner with the Codex app-server driver. Local verification uses
macOS ARM64 and controlled provider fixtures.

Related: #16868 added bounded monitor validation feedback. #16723
changes runtime MCP catalog loading; this PR changes the Rust runner
validation response and does not depend on that work.

## What Changed

- Supply generic repair guidance for any authorized tool whose arguments
fail JSON Schema validation. Preserve specific built-in hints.
- Keep the existing three-location and 512-byte limits. Do not include
input values or unknown keys. Preserve generic authorization failures
and the existing retry flag.
- Cover missing fields, wrong types, null optional fields, bounds,
unknown fields, unchanged rejected-call state, corrected calls, and
completed-call replay protection.
- Exercise rejection, correction, one dispatch, and successful
completion through the real Codex driver with a controlled provider
subprocess.
- Document the behavior and its verification scope in execution
semantics and the agent access map.

## Verification

- Red: both new runner regressions failed on the original generic
rejection. The existing API-validation regression passed.
- Green: all seven selected validation tests passed. The new Codex
transport regression passed with one rejection and one corrected
dispatch.
- `cargo fmt --manifest-path packages/paperclip-runner/runner/Cargo.toml
--all -- --check`, `node scripts/check-maps.mjs`, and `git diff --check`
passed.
- Full Rust workspace tests, the repository build, and sequential
repository typecheck passed. The existing assigned-tool gateway suite
passed all 30 tests. All hosted test and end-to-end jobs passed on this
head. The duplicate local `test:run` was interrupted after the hosted
suites passed; its local result is incomplete. The hosted build and
clean public npm installation check also passed. All current-head CI
gates are green, including the final verify and e2e aggregates.
- Greptile reviewed commit `3e2743e1e15b3b13a7d803ce4d828510e41fb22a`:
5/5, no actionable findings.
- Setup evidence: master has a stale dependency lockfile. Dependencies
were resolved with the pinned pnpm 9.15.4; lockfile changes are
excluded. The first full typecheck overlapped the build and failed
copying a generated shared-package file. The sequential rerun passed
with no source change. The initial copy failure remains recorded here;
the concurrent build-output race was not separately reproduced.
- The provider is simulated. This proves runner validation and transport
recovery, not that a live model always retries or that GitHub
credentials work.

## Risks

The provider now sees schema locations for all authorized tools. The
existing sanitizer and bounds still apply. Unknown input keys and values
remain excluded. No schema, permission, approval, automatic tool replay,
database, or connection-auth changes are made. Unauthorized tools still
get a generic rejection.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6), with reasoning, source inspection, and tool
execution. The exact runtime model ID and context-window size are not
exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 370fb50ad4 fix(mcp): keep sibling tools available after transient calls (#16890)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use remote MCP tools through a governed gateway.
> - The gateway lists tools only while their shared connection is
healthy.
> - One failed call currently marks the whole connection as unhealthy.
> - Later calls to healthy sibling tools then fail with
`tool_not_found`.
> - This pull request keeps non-authentication call failures on their
invocation.
> - Agents can continue their work while credential and access gates
remain in force.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #10147.

Related work: #15462 fixed oversized and malformed response handling.
#15448 covers timeout and JSON-RPC health handling together with
separate SSE and catalog discovery changes. Its patch still marks fetch
failures and HTTP failures as connection errors. #15325 proposed a
transport failure counter; it has merge conflicts and has not changed
since October 6. #11910 is an older timeout fix with merge conflicts.
This PR covers the remaining fetch and HTTP failure paths on current
master, with the same narrow call-health rule for timeouts and JSON-RPC
failures. It does not include the SSE or discovery changes from #15448.
The timeout session-reset check follows the recovery case discussed in
#15448.

**What happened?**

A shared remote MCP connection works until one call has a network
failure, timeout, HTTP 503, or JSON-RPC error. Every later call on that
connection returns `tool_not_found`, including healthy sibling tools.
Connection setup then asks for user attention even though the failure
did not prove that credentials need repair.

**Expected behavior**

The original invocation retains its failure. Authorized sibling tools
remain callable. The gateway does not replay an ambiguous action. HTTP
401/403, missing credentials, and explicit insufficient scope keep their
access gates.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Give an agent access to two read tools on one remote MCP connection.
2. Make one tool fail with a network error or HTTP 503.
3. Call the other tool in the same gateway session.
4. Before this fix, the second call fails with `tool_not_found` before
provider dispatch.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at `e6dcd1e8e9`. The regression runs against source with
synthetic data.

**Deployment mode**

Any deployment that uses a shared remote MCP connection. This is a core
gateway issue.

## What Changed

- Preserve connection health after a network failure, timeout,
non-authentication HTTP error, or JSON-RPC error from one tool call.
- Retain HTTP 401/403 and insufficient-scope health gates.
- Retain HTTP 401/403 gates during MCP initialization and its
initialized notification, with HTTP 503 controls for both stages.
- Discard only the upstream session used by a network failure or
timeout. Let the next explicit call initialize again.
- Add sibling-tool regression cases, authentication controls, and real
HTTP header/body timeout checks.
- Update runtime recovery guidance and the feature and access maps.

## Verification

- Red: the four new sibling-tool cases failed on the original
implementation. Each second call returned HTTP 404 with
`tool_not_found`. HTTP 401/403 control cases passed.
- Green: the same six-case selection passed after the production change:
`pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/tool-gateway-service.test.ts -t 'keeps sibling MCP tools
usable|keeps the connection blocked' --maxWorkers=1`.
- The regression checks the actual gateway and embedded PostgreSQL. The
injected provider fault preserves the call boundary. It checks failure
recording, no automatic replay, catalog retention, and successful
sibling dispatch.
- The real local HTTP fixture checks cancellation before headers and
during a body, then a successful explicit call with a fresh MCP session.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and `git diff --check` pass.
- Complete nearby suites pass: 166 tests across
`tool-gateway-service.test.ts`, `tool-gateway.test.ts`,
`remote-mcp-protocol.test.ts`, and `mcp-http.test.ts`, with one test
worker.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsc --noEmit` passes after
refreshing Runner TypeScript declarations. The first package typecheck
used declarations from before the rebase and failed two unchanged
native-session call sites; rebuilding that dependency resolved both
errors.
- The rebased head also passes all 11 selected
sibling/authentication/session regressions.
- Review regression red: setup-stage HTTP 401/403 controls failed
because connection health stayed `ok`; the two setup-stage HTTP 503
controls passed. Green: all six setup controls and the complete 166-test
nearby run pass. The fix separately handles typed initialization
authentication failures and preserves the existing caller error. The
server compiler also passes after this change.
- Full repository CI passes on
`256a65ccc302c1c31a80e87f1f91411d955028de`: typecheck, build, test
shards, Runner checks, browser checks, Canary dry run, and aggregate
gates. All checks are terminal: 55 successful, 2 expected skips, and the
separate Paperclip Review check is neutral. Greptile is 5/5 on this
exact head, with no open findings.
- Full repository checks were run in CI. Local verification in this
worktree used the focused suites and server compiler to keep parallel
work bounded.
- This change has no live provider or staging deployment proof.

## Risks

- A provider that remains unavailable can stay listed until a health
check detects the outage. Each call still fails with its original
controlled reason code.
- No automatic retry occurs because a failed remote action may already
have run.
- Already unhealthy connections still need a successful health check
after an upgrade.
- No schema, credential policy, or permission contract changes.

## Model Used

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

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 6f8ad3d77b Add verified session-local stdio MCP transport to Runner (#16526)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agent runs and their tool authority.
> - Runner supplies provider sessions with assigned MCP connections.
> - The current native connection binding supports an HTTP gateway only.
> - Execution hosts also have private local tools with stdio MCP
interfaces.
> - Those tools need session-local registration and safe concurrency.
> - This pull request adds verified local stdio assignments beside the
existing gateway.
> - Providers receive the existing tool schemas and image content.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Runner can supply a native provider session with an HTTP MCP gateway,
but cannot also assign a verified local stdio MCP server without
persistent provider configuration. Execution hosts need a session-local
transport for local MCP tools, coordination for calls sharing a
resource, and native schema/image delivery. The pinned native Codex
client drops MCP images when `structuredContent` is also present.

**Proposed solution**

Add general stdio MCP transport support using host-assigned executable
digests, arguments, environment and a private Unix socket identifying
the shared resource. Tool implementations supply their own schemas and
responses; Runner forwards their native MCP schemas and content.
Register the transport for the current provider session. Serialize calls
across processes, keep unknown outcomes fenced, and authorize assigned
native Codex tools without a new prompt while routing explicit tool
confirmations through existing PRP permission requests. Retain the HTTP
gateway and applicable permission policy.

**Alternatives considered**

Reimplementing tools or translating their actions into provider-specific
APIs would tie the transport to individual tool implementations. Global
provider config would leak session assignments. Shell commands alone do
not deliver native MCP images or preserve MCP approval requests.

**Roadmap alignment**

This completes the existing Runner transport boundary. Related: #10690
(operator config for the legacy ACPX engine), #11605 (gateway delivery
of installed stdio connections), #16486 (preconfigured provider homes).
This change assigns local tools on the execution host and leaves those
administration paths intact.

## What Changed

- Add reserved, verified stdio bindings for native Codex and through the
shared ACPX runtime. ACPX clients must support stdio MCP assignments.
Read-only sessions omit the binding. No home/project config is
rewritten.
- Run the backend with only its assigned environment through the
verified executable launch path.
- Serialize all calls sharing a private Unix socket across sessions.
Metadata remains responsive. Queued cancellation prevents execution;
active calls remain fenced until acknowledgement. Unknown outcomes
require a resource restart.
- Authorize host-assigned native Codex tools without a new per-call
prompt, matching existing execution-host shell utilities. Preserve
explicit tool deny/prompt rules. Route requested MCP tool confirmations
through one-time PRP approvals, bound to the active thread and turn.
Keep shell escalation disabled and existing tool deny rules effective.
ACPX adapters retain their applicable ACPX permission policy.
- Preserve schemas and image blocks. For native Codex 0.160/0.162,
retain structured metadata as MCP text on image-bearing results to avoid
the client's image-loss bug. ACPX adapters receive the original
response.
- Document transport authority, cancellation and recovery limits.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed with pnpm 9.15.4 and Rust
1.97.1 on macOS arm64.
- Before Apex, full `paperclip-runner-core` Rust tests passed. After the
fixes, all 379 library tests and eight subprocess tests using a generic
stdio MCP fixture pass. Those subprocess tests cover schema/image
passthrough, assigned-only environment, executable drift, call
serialization, cancellation and unknown outcomes. The native Codex suite
passed 91 tests with two intentionally ignored;
`receipt_limit_rejects_the_call_and_keeps_polling_when_interrupt_fails`
timed out waiting for `turn.interrupted`, including an isolated retry.
The unchanged pre-fix commit `80917b301a2309f7966a466cf0c198a2112be2d5`
reproduces the same timeout in isolation; this local native-suite run is
not claimed as fully passing.
- All 252 native controller tests pass against the final narrowed
approval branch. Focused TypeScript transport/permission suites passed
(298 tests); final binding, read-only host, policy and adapter checks
passed (105 tests).
- **Provider-client smoke coverage:** pinned Codex 0.160.0 through
native Runner and Claude SDK 0.3.286 used local stdio MCP servers and
loopback model API fixtures without live model credentials. These
clients define the smoke-test coverage; this is not an exhaustive
adapter compatibility test. Image responses reached the next model
request as typed image blocks. Native Codex checks also verified
unattended execution without approval requests, explicit per-tool prompt
denial without backend execution, disabled-tool rules, and stale-turn
approval rejection.
- Two Greptile concurrency findings were reproduced with failing
subprocess tests and fixed: pending cancellation under output
backpressure, and a ctime-based fence reset after chmod. Initial checks
exposed Codex CLI option-scope and key-quoting errors, which were
corrected. The existing ordinary elicitation regression also exposed an
overly broad request branch; the final branch handles explicit tool
approvals only.
- `pnpm test:run` was attempted. The broad local server suite hit
persistent embedded PostgreSQL startup failures and unrelated local Git
fixture failures; it was stopped with the failure log retained. Those
local results are not claimed as passing. Hosted Linux CI gates passed
on the reviewed runtime commit, as recorded below.
- First Apex review found three additional defects, now fixed with
regressions: keep the resource-lock socket snapshot instead of sampling
the socket twice; project native permission requests with durable
turn/item IDs while retaining provider IDs in details; validate provider
response conversion before marking a request as settling. The retry
regression failed before the fix. Focused Codex request/adapter checks
pass (23 tests), server permission projection passes (16 tests), and all
379 Runner library tests pass. The broader database-backed bridge suite
was attempted but its local PostgreSQL setup timed out; 29 tests did not
execute. This local failure is retained, not claimed as passing.
- Runtime acceptance before the documentation clarification, on
`bd4fccae001157beb5bc76ff17c1920a5db3105a`: standard Greptile 5/5, then
Apex 5/5 with no unresolved threads; all 60 checks complete successfully
or intentionally skip. Ten CI jobs were interrupted by the same runner
shutdown, including one stale job that required cancellation before
retry; the same-commit retry passed. Hosted Rust tests also pass,
including the native suite with the local baseline timeout noted above.
- `git diff --check`, map validation, and pre-push secret/PII scan
passed.

## Risks

- No live model account or deployment isolation qualification was run.
The loopback fixture proves the actual vendor-client request format, not
model interpretation.
- Stdio MCP support uses the current host-assignment contract: each
binding requires a verified executable and a private Unix socket
identifying the serialized resource. Other platforms retain the HTTP
path. No provider version was upgraded.
- A lost acknowledgement blocks subsequent calls until the host restarts
the assigned resource. Direct shell calls are outside this MCP fence and
retain the existing shell policy.
- Preconfigured Claude remains unattended and denies interactive
approval requests. Host assignment authorizes native Codex local tools;
it must be supplied only for sessions already authorized to use the
resource.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with reasoning and repository/tool execution. The
session does not expose a more specific model identifier or
context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 1e731520bb fix(mcp): deduplicate discovered tool descriptors (#16281)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents receive governed app tools through the MCP gateway.
> - GitHub review tasks can contain a PR discussion and inline finding
threads.
> - Discovery repeated each tool for every conversation linked to the
task.
> - Native tool registration treated these repeated descriptors as a
fatal collision.
> - This pull request lists GitHub tools once and deduplicates identical
descriptors across providers.
> - Agents can continue work while conflicting definitions and normal
tool permissions remain enforced.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A follow-up run on a GitHub review task failed with
`assigned_mcp_tool_name_collision` before the provider started. The task
had a main conversation and an inline finding thread. Discovery returned
the same seven tools twice. Repeated descriptors from other providers
could cause the same failure.

**Expected behavior**

Discovery exposes each identical tool once. Separate connection names
remain separate tools. Conflicting definitions remain an error. Every
call still passes the gateway's policy, approval, revocation, and audit
checks.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a GitHub review and publish an inline finding.
2. Send a follow-up request on the same PR task.
3. Inspect the task-bound bot catalog and the next native startup.
4. Separately, return two identical descriptors from an assigned app or
plugin catalog.

Related: #13717 added the GitHub review workflow.

## What Changed

- Use a distinct GitHub discovery query across conversations that share
an endpoint and task. Keep both thread mappings.
- Deduplicate identical gateway descriptors by their full gateway name
across providers. Use this rule for MCP listings, plugin listings,
assigned-tool startup, and fresh assigned-tool discovery.
- Reject conflicting descriptors with `tool_name_collision`. Keep the
projected-name collision guard.
- Cover GitHub inline-thread discovery, repeated plugin/app tools,
direct and on-demand catalogs, revocation, conflicting bindings, and
separate connection names.
- Update the execution contract, GitHub documentation, and agent access
map.

## Verification

- Regression baseline: six new assertions failed on the original
implementation. GitHub returned fourteen entries, plugin discovery
repeated a tool, and native startup failed on repeated app tools.
- Focused verification passed: 272 GitHub cases, all 29 assigned-tool
cases, and all 88 gateway acceptance cases.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` passed.
- Current-head CI passed: 55 checks passed, two inapplicable checks
skipped. Greptile scored the current head 5/5 with no unresolved
threads.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` encountered a 15-second timeout in the
existing bearer-auth throttling test, before tool discovery. That test
passed in the separate 88-case gateway run and on one isolated rerun.
The duplicate broad local run was then stopped; the complete
current-head CI matrix passed.

## Risks

- Deduplication keeps the first identical descriptor and preserves
listing order. Same-name descriptors with different definitions fail
with HTTP 409 rather than selecting an ambiguous binding.
- The GitHub query changes result cardinality. It retains the existing
task/company/agent filters and leaves conversation rows intact.
- No schema migration or credential change. Live staging recovery
requires deployment and a new authorized run.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with code inspection, editing, browser
investigation, and test execution. The exact serving model ID and
context window are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 7d9b93aee2 docs: establish paired feature and agent access maps (#16025)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Contributors use the feature map to understand and verify product
capabilities.
> - Agents need APIs and usable entry points within their permission
boundaries.
> - Product recipes and agent access need separate records with shared
capability IDs.
> - This pull request establishes that contract and gives maintenance
ownership of both maps.
> - The benefit is repeatable access review without changing product
behavior or permissions.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #15983, which added the portable verification skills and updated
the feature map. This is its contract-only follow-up. Related: #15288
added the original feature map.

**Issue type**

Missing documentation and maintenance contract.

**Where is the issue?**

The product map, its missing agent access companions, and the
verification skills.

**What's wrong?**

There is no shared convention for API presence, agent entry points,
permission boundaries, access gaps, or evidence. An API declaration does
not prove that a permitted native or remote agent can use it.

**Suggested fix**

Keep the product and agent access maps as siblings under `maps/`. Reuse
capability IDs. Record representative source inventory separately from
operation review and live proof. Keep both maps aligned through the
maintenance skill.

## What Changed

- Move the existing product map to `maps/feature-map/`. Preserve its
recipes and Poteto format. Update relative links and add companion
links.
- Add `maps/agent-access-map/` with 35 area files and 171 matching
capability IDs. Seed representative API operations, agent paths,
policies and known gaps from the reviewed source inventory. Mark entries
as `baseline`, `source-only`, and live verification `not-run`.
- Define the shared contract in `maps/README.md`. Track API presence,
agent availability, policy, evidence and review depth separately.
Require operation enumeration before marking a broad capability
operation-reviewed.
- Extend `maintain-verification-skill` to reconcile both maps and
inspect actual route policy and production tool admission. Update
creation, verification, notices and contributor references to use the
shared contract.
- Add `scripts/check-maps.mjs` and ten regression tests. Check matching
areas/IDs, indexes, references, contract fields, API method/path
examples, justified exceptions and evidence-state consistency.
- Keep the coverage inventory unchanged. Preserve skill invocation
policies and both MIT license blocks. No product API, permission, UI,
runtime helper, migration, dependency or workflow changes.

## Verification

- Passed: `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` reports 35 paired areas and 171
matching capability IDs. All local map references resolve.
- Passed: `node --test scripts/check-maps.test.mjs` runs ten tests.
Fixtures cover missing companions, renamed/orphan/duplicate IDs, broken
references, missing operation fields, empty exceptions, missing API
examples, empty policy fields, and verified evidence without passed
verification.
- Passed: metadata validation for all three verification skills. Skill
and contributor links resolve. Invocation policies and both license
blocks are unchanged.
- Compared relocated recipes with current master. Contents differ only
in relative links and companion links. `coverage.json` is byte-for-byte
unchanged. Master's updated read-only interaction test reference is
retained.
- Passed: `git diff --check`. The branch starts from current master and
contains only this contract change.
- Repository-wide typecheck, tests and build were not run locally for
this documentation and Node structural-check scope. Live agent access
was not exercised. Those gaps are explicit in the baseline entries; the
structural check does not certify behavior. CI and automated review are
pending.

## Risks

- The companions are representative source baselines. They are not
complete operation inventories or passed agent journeys.
- The checker cannot establish actual permissions, native tool
admission, operation completeness or truthful live evidence. Maintenance
must inspect source and verify with the actual permitted agent context.
- External links to the old product-map directory may need updates.
Repository references have been updated.
- Existing access gaps and board/user restrictions remain recorded. This
contract does not change authority or implement missing paths.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex assisted with this change. The session does
not expose the exact serving model ID, configured context-window size,
or reasoning setting. Capabilities used: source analysis, file edits,
shell commands, and structural regression tests.
