DottaandPaperclip 9efee7ee16 fix(runtime): save dynamic skill bundles before native admission (#19729)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents, tasks, and their saved execution state.
> - A replacement server must restore each admitted skill from shared
storage.
> - Installed company skills already have immutable versions.
> - Connector skills add assigned resources and tool definitions for
each run.
> - Those dynamic bytes keep a null version ID and differ from the
static skill.
> - Native admission saved their input before it saved a durable package
receipt.
> - This change stages the exact packages first and publishes the input
and receipt together.
> - A new connector turn can then survive an empty server home.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19675 for the existing runtime asset preservation owner.

**What happened?**

A new native run with an assigned Slack connector creates a concrete
local skill bundle after the old runtime assets were migrated. Admission
saves its execution input without a preservation receipt. The new run
creates a local durability dependency again.

**Expected behavior**

With S3 configured, the exact dynamic bundle must be durable before the
execution input becomes visible. Its null version ID and admitted bytes
must remain unchanged. Local storage must keep its volume-backed
behavior.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Configure S3 and a native agent with an assigned Slack resource.
2. Prepare a new native task through the normal runtime selection owner.
3. Inspect its runtime skill receipt or restore its skills with an empty
server home. The previous owner saved no receipt.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master `d1ee25d0f7`. The fix is tested on `4a3396d9b9`.

**Deployment mode**

S3-configured server. Local tests use PostgreSQL 18.1 and a private disk
transport with the S3 receipt contract.

## What Changed

- Extend the existing runtime asset owner with package staging and
transaction-bound receipt validation.
- Stage exact unversioned skill packages before native admission. Keep
storage I/O outside the run transaction.
- Publish the frozen input and receipt together under the existing run,
cancellation, and package collection locks.
- Reject changed input bindings and retired package metadata.
- Reuse valid same-run receipts without reading the previous host's
bundle path or requiring a new object read.
- Keep existing online preservation and local storage behavior.
- Add a bounded preparation span and document its work.

## Verification

- Genuine unchanged-production RED: the actual Slack overlay and real
admission transaction save no preservation receipt.
- Final rebased head: 68 tests pass in three suites in 25.36 seconds.
These include all runtime-selection, runtime-preservation, and connector
controls.
- The new positive checks that no execution input or coordinator is
visible during package readback. It restores exact skill and tool bytes,
modes, digests, and null version IDs in a cold home.
- Guards cover an uncertain storage failure, cancellation during upload,
a changed binding, retired package metadata, and local mode. An existing
receipt remains usable after removing the original bundle and during a
storage outage.
- The canonical PostgreSQL wrapper uses one owned disposable PostgreSQL
18.1 container. Each suite's database is cleaned up. Real package
archives, streams, and readback run locally; no external provider or
model is called.
- Strict server TypeScript, module boundaries, changed-line private-data
checks, and `git diff --check` pass.
- [Final-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42337473062)
passes all required build, typecheck, test, and Runner gates. Fresh
Greptile is 5/5 with no open review threads.

## Risks

New S3-backed admission now requires its dynamic packages to be saved
before execution can proceed. A storage failure can therefore stop
preparation. Existing resource cleanup keeps its authority. Failed or
cancelled staging retains original files and the package owner's pending
receipts. Same-run recovery retains its original capture provenance and
cache behavior. The tests replace the external S3 transport; they do not
qualify live S3 permissions or provider execution. No schema, API,
workflow, company skill version, or provider protocol changes are
included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6 family; the exact runtime model ID and context
capacity are not exposed in this session), with reasoning, repository
editing, code execution, and tool use.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 efc0b359da fix(ci): rebuild and sign an unsigned reused Daytona e2e image (#19677)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Paid runner E2E campaigns run in `runner-full-stack-e2e.yml`.
Daytona cells need a signed, content-addressed runner image
> - The "Publish verified Daytona image" job reuses `e2e-content-<id>`
when the tag exists, and signs only after a fresh build
> - A run that stops between the push and `cosign sign` leaves an
unsigned tag. Every later run reuses it and fails `cosign verify` with
"no signatures found"
> - That failure skips the whole test matrix, including local cells. The
first Reliability TestOps launch (run 42298071794) ran 0/7 cells for
this reason
> - This pull request reuses a tag only when its signature verifies.
Otherwise it rebuilds, pushes and signs the tag
> - The benefit is that an interrupted run cannot block every later
Daytona campaign

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19549

**What happened?**
Run https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42298071794
(TestOps launch of the Reliability plan) failed in "Reuse or publish
immutable image" with `Error: no signatures found` (exit code 10). No
test cell ran. The report shows 7 missing attempts.

**Expected behavior**
A campaign with Daytona cells always produces a signed, verified image,
or it fails for a real build or signing error. A stale unsigned tag must
not block it.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. A run pushes
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip-daytona-runner:e2e-content-<id>` and
stops before `cosign sign` (for example, a runner shutdown).
2. A later campaign with the same content ID finds the tag and skips the
build.
3. `cosign verify` fails with "no signatures found", and the matrix is
skipped.

**Paperclip version or commit**
master 02a2299173.

## What Changed

- `.github/workflows/runner-full-stack-e2e.yml`: add a `verify_signed`
helper. Reuse an existing content tag only when its digest has this
workflow's signature. If verification fails, warn, rebuild, push and
sign. The final `cosign verify`, logout and config checks are unchanged.
- `tests/runner-e2e/daytona-image.test.ts`: assert that reuse is gated
on signature verification and that the build-and-sign path follows it.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run daytona-image workflow-security` in
`tests/runner-e2e`: 38/38 pass.
- Red before the fix: the new assertion fails on the unchanged workflow
(1 failed, 18 passed in `daytona-image`).
- The workflow YAML parses.
- Live check after merge: relaunch the Reliability TestOps plan. The
image job should warn about the unsigned tag, rebuild it, sign it and
verify it, and then the cells run.

## Risks

- Low risk. The rebuild uses the same trusted inputs and cache, and it
only happens when verification fails. The new digest replaces the
unsigned tag. The identity and issuer checks are unchanged.
- Rebuilding an unsigned tag takes extra time on that one run.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`) in Claude Code with tool use
(shell, browser read of the GitHub job log), standard context.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 644ee66f5d test(restart-chaos): R5 live tools and processes; fail a wave whose worktree changes mid-wave (#19697)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The restart chaos harness (`tests/restart-chaos/`) grades every task
on R1–R6; R5 catches silent stalls, including a run that stays `running`
with no live evidence
> - A B5 task runs `bench.sh` for about four minutes with no output, so
a healthy Retry run was graded `R5:silent_dead_run` while its runner
process was alive and its tool was still running
> - Separately, a runner `dist` rebuilt in the harness worktree during a
wave made later restarts run different code and produced a false
signature (RC-32's investigation)
> - This pull request makes R5 treat a run as live while a tool it
started has not ended or while its recorded local runner process still
runs, and fails a wave whose worktree changes mid-wave
> - The benefit is fewer false R5 failures and no silently mixed-code
waves

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19629
Refs #19641

**What is the problem?**
R5 flags a quiet but live run (a long tool call, a live runner process)
as `silent_dead_run`. A build, install or branch switch in the harness
worktree during a wave goes unnoticed, though every restart re-runs the
control plane from that worktree.

**What is the expected behavior?**
A run with a tool in flight, or with its recorded local runner process
still alive (same PID and start time), is live for R5. A wave whose
checkout or runner build output changes during the wave fails as a
harness error.

**Why does it matter?**
False R5 failures send fixers after non-bugs, and mixed-code waves
produce signatures that are not product behavior.

## What Changed

- `observer.ts`: the run-event reader counts tool starts minus tool ends
(PRP item ids are not unique per tool call), and remembers the run's
latest local process identity until recovery reports it stopped. Samples
carry `toolInFlight` and `processAlive`. `localProcessAlive` checks `ps`
for the same PID with the same start time, so a recycled PID never
counts. Daytona runs are not checked (their process is remote).
- `grader.ts`: `deadRunningRun` skips a run with a tool in flight or a
live process.
- `types.ts`: `RunSample.toolInFlight` and `RunSample.processAlive`.
- `wave-guard.ts` (new) and `main.ts`: fingerprint `HEAD`, the tracked
diff contents (`git diff --binary HEAD`), untracked file contents, and
size/mtime of `packages/paperclip-runner/dist` and the runnerd binary.
The baseline is taken after the harness's own setup (preflight rebuilds
provider entrypoints). Re-check after each fault and at the end; fail
the wave (`worktree_changed_mid_wave`) if it changed.
- `main.ts`, `scheduler.ts`: `faults.json` and a new `task-faults.json`
(each task's launch time and crossing faults) are written after every
fault. `--replay` falls back to that log when a task has no grade file
(an interrupted or wedged wave), so a storm task replays the faults that
crossed it at the same offsets.
- `README.md`: both grading notes.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run --config tests/restart-chaos/vitest.config.ts`:
111 tests pass. New tests cover:
- a B5 run quiet for 4 minutes passes with a tool in flight or a live
process, and fails otherwise
- tool and process liveness come from run events and clear on tool end
and process stop
- `localProcessAlive` accepts this process's real PID and start time and
rejects a different start time
- the guard catches rebuilt dist, a re-edited dirty file, an edited
untracked file and a rebuilt runner binary, in a real temporary git repo
- a storm task with no grade file replays the faults that crossed it at
their offsets from its launch
- `node scripts/typecheck-test-projects.mjs tests/restart-chaos`:
passes.

## Risks

- Low risk, test harness only.
- The R5 exemption narrows R5. A run that is truly stuck while its
process lives (a hung provider) now passes R5 and falls to R1's time
budget instead.
- One `ps` call per running run per poll on local waves.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 db41bfcb38 fix(recovery): let an accepted Retry finish after a killed copyback owner (#19721)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A native run saves the agent's workspace files after the provider
turn (copyback). One controller owns copyback at a time and records a
durable owner receipt on the run (`nativeWorkspaceFinalizationOwner`)
> - When copyback of an accepted result fails, retained saved-work
recovery exports the files from the kept sandbox. A task Retry waits for
that recovery before it continues
> - A control-plane restart can kill the controller while it owns
copyback. The dead controller can never confirm its own stop, and
nothing in the retained recovery path could release its receipt
> - The recovery worker then spent one attempt on each recheck of that
receipt until it was exhausted, and the accepted Retry kept saying
"Paperclip is finishing the saved result" with no run. The task waited
forever
> - This pull request stops spending attempts on that recheck, names the
real wait, and lets the board release the exact receipt so the same
recovery and the same Retry continue
> - The benefit is that an accepted Retry never waits silently: it
finishes, or it shows one honest action that makes it finish

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19717 (same-host automatic proof for a killed copyback owner; this
PR covers the retained-recovery path and the case where no automatic
proof is possible)
Refs #19713, #19609, #19694 (related restart-recovery fixes; no overlap
in files except this doc)

**What happened?**

Two Daytona restart-chaos waves. In each, a native run's copyback failed
and the run failed with `native_workspace_sync_out_retry_exhausted`. The
agent's result was accepted. Retained recovery started. A SIGKILL of the
control plane landed while a recovery attempt owned copyback:

- Wave s13, task t06 (Claude, crash loop): Retry was accepted at
02:30:35. A SIGKILL landed 2 s later. All later attempts failed with
`copyback_stop_unconfirmed`. After 6 attempts the recovery was
exhausted. The Retry showed `retryWait.reason = finalizing_saved_result`
for more than 15 minutes. No run was created.
- Wave s12, task t01 (Claude): attempt 1 failed with "Workspace
checkpoint payload mismatch". The SIGKILL at 01:43:54 killed the owner
of attempt 2. Attempts 3 to 5 failed with `copyback_stop_unconfirmed`.
The Retry was accepted with HTTP 2xx and produced no run.

In both kept databases the run carries an owner receipt for the killed
process.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Accept a native result and make its workspace copyback fail, so that
retained recovery owns the export.
2. Press Retry on the task.
3. Kill the control plane while a recovery attempt owns copyback, so
that its owner receipt stays on the run. Use another host, or a receipt
without automatic stop proof.
4. Let recovery run.

**Expected behavior**

Rechecking the receipt does not spend attempts. The task names the wait
and does not offer a Retry that cannot help. A board member can confirm
that the previous server stopped. The recovery then finishes, and the
waiting Retry continues by itself.

**Actual behavior**

`withNativeWorkspaceFinalizationOwnership` returned `owner_unverified`
for a retained repair without creating any board action
(`native-workspace-finalization-ownership.ts`,
`requireStopVerification`). `recoverRetainedWorkspace` reserved an
attempt for each recheck and failed it as `copyback_stop_unconfirmed`
(`workspace-recovery.ts`), until the budget was exhausted. The Retry
gate in `explicit-native-continuation.ts` returned
`finalizing_saved_result` for an accepted result with no verified
repair, with no check for this hold.
`resumeNativeWorkspaceAfterOwnerStop` accepted only an
`owner_unverified` action on a `running` run, so no route could release
the receipt of a finished run. The exhausted handoff told the board to
press Retry again, which repeats the same failure.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/workspace-recovery.ts`: when retained recovery
finds an unverifiable copyback owner, it records the recheck without
reserving an attempt. The 30-minute recovery window still bounds it. The
retained action records the exact receipt as `workspaceOwnerRecovery: {
state: "operator_required", owner }`. A newer receipt replaces the
record and clears an older confirmation.
- `server/src/services/explicit-native-continuation.ts`: a Retry that
waits for an accepted saved result reports
`workspace_owner_stop_required` when the run's active retained action
has that hold. It no longer reports `finalizing_saved_result` for this
case.
- `server/src/services/task-interruption-presentation.ts`: the new wait
has a fixed message, and Retry is not offered for it, because another
click cannot release the receipt.
-
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-workspace-owner-recovery.ts`:
the existing board route `POST
/issues/:id/recovery-actions/resume-workspace-finalization` (permission
`runtime:confirm_owner_stop`) also accepts a retained recovery action
with that hold. The confirmation must name the receipt that is still on
the run. A live owner on this host still rejects it. It clears only that
receipt, records the stop proof and an activity entry, and returns the
same recovery to the worker. A spent budget gets one new generation, as
a deliberate recovery request does. It accepts no result and starts no
agent turn. The owner check is shared with the existing path.
- `server/src/services/system-recovery.ts`: an exhausted
`copyback_stop_unconfirmed` handoff names the board confirmation instead
of another Retry.
- `ui/src/api/issues.ts`: the route receipt's `resultId` can be `null`
(a retained recovery has no live result binding).
- `doc/native-workspace-finalization-recovery.md`: an additive paragraph
describes this path.

## Verification

- Red then green on embedded Postgres:
`server/src/services/workspace-recovery-preparation-gates.test.ts`,
"lets an accepted Retry finish after a killed copyback owner instead of
waiting forever" with one case per wave (s13, s12). Each case uses a
real accepted remote export, a Retry through the HTTP route, a
killed-owner receipt, and 8 recovery passes.
- Before the fix (both cases): `attempts: 6, state: "exhausted"`. That
is the wave state.
- After the fix: no attempt is spent on the recheck. The hold is
recorded. The Retry wait is `workspace_owner_stop_required` with
`canRetry: false`. The board confirmation through the route returns 202
and clears the receipt. The same recovery completes. The same accepted
Retry then finishes the saved result (s13: the task is `done`) or
continues in exactly one new run (s12).
- `npx vitest run
src/services/workspace-recovery-preparation-gates.test.ts -t "killed
copyback owner"`: 2 passed.
- `pnpm verify` (affected selection): see the comment below. Server `tsc
--noEmit` is clean.
- No live Daytona replay. Both waves ran on old signed images. The local
proof uses the same accepted-export fixture as the existing Retry tests,
with the receipt state copied from the kept databases.

## Risks

- A copyback owner on another host that is still alive is now rechecked
within the recovery window without spending attempts. Before this change
it spent them. The window still bounds the wait.
- The board confirmation for a retained action is an operator statement,
the same as the existing owner-stop path. It is limited to roles with
`runtime:confirm_owner_stop`. It never clears a receipt other than the
one it names, and a live same-host owner still rejects it.
- #19717 changes the same ownership area and adds a UI action for the
running-run case. That UI does not show a retained action yet. After
both merge, a small follow-up can show its button for this hold. Until
then the API route and the task's wait message cover it.
- Not addressed here: the "Workspace checkpoint payload mismatch" that
started wave s12. The checkpoint outbound transfer extracts without `-p`
(`sandbox-managed-runtime.ts` checkpoint sync-out, `extractHostTarball`
in the Daytona provider), so the host umask can change file modes that
the remote manifest recorded. That is a separate signature.

with tool use (shell, file edits, test runs, embedded Postgres).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 5cc89b1e4d fix(native): do not charge a restart resume that made progress before the next crash (#19720)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs have an execution recovery budget of three provider
attempts, so a run that keeps failing stops retrying
> - A control-plane crash (no graceful drain) makes the next server
resume the run, and that resume charges one attempt
> - #19625 stopped charging a resume after a graceful drain, but crash
restarts still charge, even when the previous resume did real work
> - On a deploy day with several restarts, a healthy run used up its
budget and the task needed a manual Retry
> - This pull request does not charge a crash resume when the previous
restart resume made recorded progress
> - The benefit is that restarts alone do not exhaust a run that keeps
making progress, and genuine loops stay bounded

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19625

**What happened?**
In restart-chaos testing (storm wave, OpenCode run), a run crossed four
control-plane restarts: K1, K1, K2 (drain), K1. Each resume was clean:
the runner restored the session, recorded
`provider_turn_lost_on_restore`, and the #19699 continuation turn then
ran tools for minutes. The two K1 resumes each charged one attempt
(attempt 1 to 3). The drain resume did not charge (#19625). The fourth
restart found attempt 3 and blocked the run with
`native_restart_recovery_blocked` /
`execution_recovery_budget_exhausted`. Seven runs in the same wave
failed in the same way. In every case, each resume had accepted a new
turn and completed tool work before the next restart.

**Expected behavior**
A run must not fail because it survived several controller restarts that
each resumed cleanly and made progress. The budget must still stop a
resume that fails each time, a crash loop that makes no progress, and a
provider that fails repeatedly.

**Steps to reproduce**
Start a native local run. Kill the server (SIGKILL) while the run is
active and let it resume. Let the resumed turn run tools. Repeat three
times. The third crash resume is blocked with
`execution_recovery_budget_exhausted`.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at `8a34c1b62c`.

## What Changed

- `claimNativeRestartRecoveries()` (`native-restart-recovery.ts`)
records `progressWatermarkSeq` (the run's highest
`heartbeat_run_events.seq`) in the history entry of each recovery claim.
- New `previousResumeMadeProgress()`: the next claim reads the watermark
of the most recent claim. It finds progress when, after that watermark,
a `turn.accepted` event names a turn, and a later
`tool.execution.completed` or `item.completed` event (not a `usage`
item) belongs to the same turn. The evidence is committed run events,
not timing.
- When that progress exists, the claim is not charged
(`chargesProviderAttempt: false`, and the `>= 3` exhausted gate is
skipped). This uses the same path as the clean-drain rule from #19625.
The history entry records `attemptKeptForProgress: true`.
- Restore activity does not count: lineage items without a turn,
`turn.failed`, work on the interrupted turn, `turn.submitted`, and an
accepted turn with only usage or a failure. So a resume that dies or
fails before it does work still charges.
- The credit stops at controller generation 12
(`NATIVE_PROGRESS_CREDIT_GENERATION_LIMIT`). A run that does some work
and then crashes the controller every time still reaches the budget.
- The first restart (which interrupts the original execution, not a
resume) still charges. A history entry from an older release has no
watermark, so it gets no credit.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` states the rule next to the three-attempt
budget.

## Verification

New tests in
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`
(embedded Postgres, real `claimNativeRestartRecoveries`; between claims
the test applies the executor's attempt charge and marks the controller
dead):

- `keeps recovering a run whose restart resumes each completed work
before the next crash`: five crash resumes, each followed by restore
noise and one completed tool in the continuation turn. Charges are
`[true, false, false, false, false]` and the attempt stays 2. Red on
master (attempt 2, 3, then blocked).
- `still exhausts the budget when restart resumes complete no work
between crashes`: resumes followed only by restore noise and a failed
continuation turn. Attempt 2, attempt 3, then
`execution_recovery_budget_exhausted`. Green on master and with the fix.
- `bounds a crash loop that makes progress before every crash`: credit
stops at the generation limit, the last attempt is spent, and the run
blocks. Red on master.
- `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`,
`heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts`,
`native-restart-recovery-isolation.test.ts` and
`native-remote-retry-admission.test.ts`: 218 passed, 14 skipped.
- I ran the progress query against the live database of the failing
wave. For all seven blocked runs, every resume had progress before the
next restart, so this rule would have kept each of them recovering.
- `tsc --noEmit` for `server` has no errors in the changed files.

## Risks

- A run that makes progress and then makes the controller crash each
time gets up to about ten extra resumes before the budget applies. The
generation limit bounds this.
- The rule depends on the PRP event shape (`payload.prpEvent.turnId` on
`turn.accepted` and on completed work). Events without that shape get no
credit, so the failure mode is the old behavior (charge), not an
unbounded loop.
- The query runs once per claim, on the `(run_id, seq)` unique index
range after the watermark.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 d1ee25d0f7 fix(runner): fail a pending Codex turn start at once with the runner's own terminal failure (#19722)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The control plane starts each Codex turn through runnerd and waits
for the turn's start event (`#startTurnWork` in
`runnerd-codex-transport.ts`)
> - In restart storm 5, runnerd failed an accepted continuation turn
before it started (`turn_binding_mismatch`, fixed at its source in
#19718)
> - The transport held that terminal for the pending start and waited
the full 30 s bound
> - It then reported "runnerd did not report the provider turn
identity", which hid the real cause
> - This pull request makes a pending start fail at once with the
runner's own terminal failure
> - The benefit is a faster failure that names its real cause, so
recovery and operators act on the correct fact

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19718, #19699, #19608

**What happened?**

Restart storm 5 (seed 7106), task t01 (Codex). Runnerd accepted the
restart continuation turn. About 0.5 s later it committed a
`harness.diagnostic`, a non-recoverable `turn.failed`
(`turn_binding_mismatch`) and a failed `run.terminal`. The transport's
event pump holds a turn terminal while a turn start is pending, so the
start loop never saw it. The start waited 30 s, the #19608 adoption
check found no active turn, and the run failed with "runnerd did not
report the provider turn identity".

**Expected behavior**

When runnerd reports a final failure of the pending turn (a
non-recoverable `turn.failed` or a failed `run.terminal`) before the
turn starts, the start fails at once. The error names the runner's code
and message.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Use fake Codex with `--foreign-usage-before-turn-started
--turn-started-delay-ms 20000`.
2. Start a turn through the runnerd Codex transport.
3. Before this change, `turn/start` rejects after the full bound with
"runnerd did not report the provider turn identity".

## What Changed

- `runnerd-codex-transport.ts`: new `runnerdPendingTurnStartFailure()`.
It finds a non-recoverable `turn.failed` or a failed `run.terminal`
among the terminals held for the pending start and the committed events
after the cursor.
- `#startTurnWork` checks it while it waits for `turn/started`, before
the adoption snapshot, and in the post-adoption wait. It throws `runnerd
failed the provider turn before it started: <code>: <message>`.
- The check runs only when the turn has not started. A recoverable
terminal does not trigger it. The #19608 late-start adoption path is
unchanged.
- Fake Codex: new `--foreign-usage-before-turn-started` flag. It sends
usage for a turn the runner does not own right after it accepts a turn.
This makes runnerd fail the turn with `turn_binding_mismatch` before it
starts.
- New test in `runnerd-codex-transport-deadlines.test.ts` with real
runnerd and fake Codex.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: `npx vitest run
src/live/runnerd-codex-transport-deadlines.test.ts` → the new test
failed after 16.4 s with "runnerd did not report the provider turn
identity".
- Green after the fix: the start rejects in under 5 s with
`turn_binding_mismatch`, and fake Codex saw exactly one `turn/start`.
- The #19608 tests ("adopts a durably accepted turn whose start
notification outlives the turn-start bound" and "does not adopt an
accepted turn the runner no longer reports active") still pass.
- `npx vitest run src/live/runnerd-codex-transport`: 9 files, 399 tests
pass.
- `pnpm run typecheck` in `packages/paperclip-runner` passes. `cargo
test --bin fake-codex-app-server` passes. `cargo fmt` is clean.
- `pnpm verify` exits 2 (broad input: the fake Codex binary). Required
CI supplies the broad coverage.

## Risks

- Low risk. The new failure fires only when runnerd itself already
reported a final failure and no turn start was observed. In that state
the start could not succeed, and before this change it failed after the
bound anyway.
- If a provider sends a non-recoverable terminal before its own turn
start for a turn that later starts, the start now fails earlier. Codex
sends `turn/started` before its terminal, and runnerd's terminal for a
protocol failure is final, so I do not expect this.

DottaandPaperclip 1a60d47804 Preserve settled native log files during online migration (#19719)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for AI agents.
> - The web server must retain run history across replacements.
> - Older native runs can have local log files with no final size or
digest.
> - The normal importer correctly refuses to call those files complete.
> - The existing raw archive mode requires the entire instance to stop
work.
> - This change gives settled sources a separate, guarded online archive
path.
> - Active work can continue while old evidence moves to object storage.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18864, #19678, #19688.

The offline historical log archive path cannot migrate a busy instance.
This change preserves exact surviving bytes without claiming complete
native-event coverage or changing the original run outcome.

## What Changed

- Add an explicit online option for settled native log files. Keep the
default importer and offline option unchanged.
- Require a released, closed native finalizer and no pending attempt,
allocation, physical owner, or task binding. A stale lease or terminal
run status alone is insufficient.
- Use the canonical physical finalization lock and row locks. Check the
source generation before claims and publication.
- Read only the canonical, private local file. Reject aliases, symlinks,
hard links, changed files, and changed owners.
- Verify remote bytes before publishing a read-only archive and activity
receipt in one transaction. Keep original files, errors, run status,
event rows, and completeness metadata.
- Document the command and its authority limits. Add real PostgreSQL and
loopback S3 transport tests.

## Verification

- The original implementation failed the new archive regression. It
returned blocked instead of migrating the settled source.
- Final source integration suite: 15 tests pass on disposable PostgreSQL
and the bounded loopback S3 fixture. Coverage includes active unrelated
work, failed and successful sources, a 4 MiB segment boundary, owner
changes, file changes, unresolved owners, task bindings, allocations,
and filesystem aliases.
- The qualified source TypeScript check and module boundary check pass.
- All 73 tests in five affected existing log-store, object-journal,
cancellation, and migration-worker suites pass. The first borrowed
dependency setup loaded work contexts from another worktree and failed
four tests. Explicit database subpath aliases resolved that setup fault;
no worker code changed.
- Earlier test fault injection used the wrong storage method, and the
first segment test reused a closed fixture endpoint. Those fixture
defects were corrected before the final 15-test pass.
- Local tests use Node 26. CI supplies the standard full typecheck,
build, and test gates. Production object-storage credentials, live
Railway replacement, and provider continuation are separate deployment
acceptance steps.

- Final exact-head CI: 59 successful contexts and 3 skipped, with all
typecheck, build, test, E2E, security, and review gates complete.
[Workflow
evidence](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42332349644).
- The first CI attempt had 12 jobs interrupted by runner shutdown. Their
logs end in cancellation, with no test assertion found. The
failed/cancelled-only retry passed all 12 jobs and recomputed
aggregates. The 38 original successful job records kept their original
execution times and were not rerun. Original interruption logs remain
retained.

## Risks

- This path preserves raw history. It cannot recover missing source
bytes or prove a complete native transcript.
- Uploads can finish before a later source check fails. The run
reference stays local in that case; a retry must still satisfy all
authority checks.
- The new option is explicit. It adds no startup worker, recurring poll,
or background scan.
- Source transactions hold scoped locks only for ownership checks and
publication. Streaming and remote verification run outside those
transactions.

OpenAI GPT-6 family through Codex, with reasoning, tool use, and code

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 da850990f8 fix(restart-chaos): grade R4 on overlapping execution; wait out pending cleanup for R6 (#19710)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The restart chaos harness grades every task on rules R1 to R6. R4
means "no duplicate execution"
> - R4 counted every queued, running or scheduled-retry run in one poll
as an active run, and failed the task when there were two
> - A follow-up comment while a run is in progress normally queues a
wake behind that run. The product cancels the wake when the running run
finishes, so the wake never executes
> - A Daytona wave failed an opencode task for exactly this case, so R4
reported a duplicate-execution failure that did not happen
> - This pull request grades R4 on actual overlapping execution
> - The benefit is that R4 failures again mean that two runs really
executed together, or a comment was consumed twice

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Bug description**
`gradeR4` failed a task whenever one poll showed two runs in
`ACTIVE_RUN_STATUSES` (queued, running, scheduled_retry). This includes
a wake queued behind a running run that never starts.

**Steps to reproduce**
Daytona wave `w-20261107T013205-s11`, task t06 (opencode C1 K2):
- Run b4b16a4d is running.
- The C1 follow-up comment queues run c090799a.
- c090799a is cancelled 1 s after b4b16a4d succeeds and never starts.
- Before this change, R4 reported `concurrent_runs: c090799a(queued),
b4b16a4d(running)`.

**Expected behavior**
R4 passes. It fails only when two runs execute at the same time, or when
a side effect (a consumed comment) repeats.

Refs #19544

## What Changed

- `tests/restart-chaos/grader.ts`: `gradeR4` fails when two runs are
`running` in the same sample, or when the started→finished windows of
two started runs overlap. A still-active run's window lasts until the
last sample. Queued and scheduled-retry runs that never started do not
count. The comment-consumed-twice check is unchanged.
- `tests/restart-chaos/grader.test.ts`: a test with the t06 shape (a
queued wake cancelled behind a running run) that passes; queued plus
scheduled_retry without a start passes; overlapping windows fail even
when no single poll saw both running. The existing two-running and
comment tests are kept.
- `tests/restart-chaos/README.md`: the R4 grading note.
- R6 settle for Daytona (`tests/restart-chaos/daytona-sweep.ts`,
`main.ts`). The product retries a `pending_cleanup` lease after
`ENVIRONMENT_CLEANUP_RETRY_MS` (5 min), so a 2-min settle reported
normal cleanup as a leak. R6 now waits `PENDING_CLEANUP_RETRY_MS + 90
s`, capped at 8 min; a test keeps the constant equal to the server's. An
environment DELETE that returns 409 while a sandbox cleanup is pending
is correct product behaviour. It is retried for the same window. If it
is still blocked after that, it is reported as
`environmentDeleteBlocked`, and it fails the wave and keeps the instance
(whose database owns the cleanup work). It is not counted as a harness
error. Tests cover the 409 retry and a real (500) delete failure.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run --config tests/restart-chaos/vitest.config.ts`:
109/109 pass. `node scripts/typecheck-test-projects.mjs
tests/restart-chaos`: clean.
- R6 evidence: in wave `w-20261107T015455-s12`, three leases were still
`pending_cleanup` at the 2-min mark, and the environment DELETE returned
409 "Cannot delete this environment while a sandbox cleanup is pending".
- The t06 sample sequence from `w-20261107T013205-s11` is the new test
case.

## Risks

- This change touches the test harness only.
- R4 is now less strict about queued rows. If a queued duplicate starts
executing, its start time makes its window overlap, so R4 still fails.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 aed053633e fix(environments): run pending sandbox cleanup when an environment is deleted (#19716)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Operators delete a sandbox environment, optionally with consent to
destroy its sandboxes (`DELETE
/api/environments/:id?destroyReusableSandboxLeases=true`)
> - A sandbox whose teardown failed or was interrupted is kept as a
`pending_cleanup` lease, and it blocks the delete
> - The cleanup sweep retries such a lease only after a cooldown of up
to 5 minutes
> - A consented delete therefore returned 409 `pending_sandbox_cleanup`
for minutes. A caller with a shorter deadline gave up, and the
environment and its sandbox stayed behind
> - This pull request makes the consented delete run one teardown
attempt for the environment's pending cleanups now, then re-check
> - The benefit is that a consented environment delete completes as soon
as the provider teardown succeeds

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
After a restart chaos wave, the harness deleted the wave's Daytona
environment with `destroyReusableSandboxLeases=true`. The server
returned 409 `pending_sandbox_cleanup` every 3 seconds for the whole
120-second client deadline. A run lease had entered `pending_cleanup`
after its run failed, and the sweep's retry cooldown had not passed. The
environment was not deleted.

**Expected behavior**
With explicit consent, the delete tears down the environment's own
pending sandbox cleanups and completes when that teardown succeeds. A
teardown that fails, or one already in flight elsewhere, still blocks
the delete.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Leave a sandbox lease of an environment in `pending_cleanup` with a
future retry time.
2. `DELETE /api/environments/:id?destroyReusableSandboxLeases=true`.
3. On master, the response is 409 `pending_sandbox_cleanup` until the
cooldown ends.

Refs #19696 (restart recovery for creation and teardown claims; this
builds on it).

## What Changed

- `heartbeat/recovery.ts`: `sweepPendingCleanupLeases` accepts
`environmentRetry: { environmentId, actorId }`. Like the existing
run-scoped explicit retry, it bypasses the cooldown for one attempt,
never takes over an in-flight attempt, and logs
`environment_lease.cleanup_retried` with reason `environment_deleted`.
It touches only that environment's leases.
- `routes/environments.ts`: when the delete has consent and the only
blockers are pending cleanup and reusable leases, it runs that retry
first, then re-reads the blast radius. The existing reusable-lease
destroy and the final guard are unchanged. The new dependency is a
narrow, optional `retryPendingEnvironmentCleanup` option; without it,
behavior is unchanged.
- `app.ts`: wires the option to the existing heartbeat service instance.

## Verification

- Red, then green:
- `environment-routes.test.ts`: "runs the environment's pending sandbox
cleanup now and deletes with explicit consent" and "keeps rejecting when
the consented pending cleanup attempt does not finish" fail before and
pass after. "does not run pending sandbox cleanup without consent or
past another blocker" passes in both.
- `heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep.test.ts`: "runs one attempt for a
deleted environment's cleanup during its cooldown, scoped to that
environment" fails before and passes after. It checks that another
environment's lease and an in-flight claim are untouched, and that the
activity log is written.
- `sandbox-creation-operations.test.ts`: "reclaims an issue-bound
creation after its run failed and the issue finished on a later run"
covers another chaos finding. A creation intent bound to an issue was
interrupted by SIGKILL 0.5 s after it committed, its run ended
`process_lost`, and a later run finished the issue. The test fails on
the code before #19696 and passes on master, so #19696 already covers
this case. The test is kept as a regression.
- After rebasing on master, `environment-routes`,
`heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep`, `agent-runner-qualification-routes`
and `sandbox-creation-operations` pass (192 tests). `tsc --noEmit`
reports no errors in the changed files.

## Risks

- A consented delete now makes provider teardown calls for pending
cleanups. Those sandboxes were already queued for destruction, and the
operator consented to destroy the environment's sandboxes.
- One explicit attempt counts toward the lease's attempt cap, the same
as a user Retry.
- The delete request now waits for those teardown attempts. Each attempt
uses the existing plugin timeouts.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 51eb4ff705 fix(recovery): finalize an accepted native result after a hard kill (#19713)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A native run hands its accepted result to a controller lease, and
the controller finalizes the task from that result
> - A graceful shutdown releases that lease for the next server
(#19591), but a hard kill (SIGKILL, OOM, host crash) cannot
> - After a hard kill between result acceptance and finalization, the
next server waited for the dead controller's 20-minute lease, so the run
stayed `running` and the user's follow-up comment waited with it
> - This pull request releases that lease at startup when the controller
is proved dead by its boot ID and process identity, never by age
> - The benefit is that the saved result finalizes within seconds after
a restart, without another provider turn, and queued follow-up work
continues

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19591 (the graceful-shutdown counterpart) and #19578
(boot-identity proof for legacy runs).

**What happened?**
A restart-chaos wave sent K1 (SIGKILL) 20 ms after a Claude run recorded
`run.result.accepted` and `run.terminal`. The run then stayed `running`
for more than 10 minutes, through four more restarts. The finalization
row was `workspace_finalizing` with the stored result. Its lease
belonged to the killed server: a different `controller_boot_id`, a
`controller_pid` with no process, and `lease_expires_at` 20 minutes
ahead. Startup recovery skips runs that already have a result. The
result-commit worker waits until the lease expires. The task's follow-up
comment could not run until then.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Let a native local run accept its result.
2. SIGKILL the server before finalization finishes.
3. Restart the server. The run stays `running` until the old lease
expires.

**Expected behavior**
After a restart, a result lease held by a stopped controller of an
earlier boot is treated as released at once. The stored result finalizes
once, with no new provider turn, and the follow-up wake runs after it.

## What Changed

- New
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-dead-controller-result-lease.ts`:
`releaseDeadControllerResultLeases` finds `running` native runs with an
accepted result and an unexpired lease. It requires the lease to belong
to a different controller boot. It proves the controller stopped with
`evaluateNativeControllerTakeover` (`requireStoppedController`): the
process is dead, or its PID now names another process. It then expires
that lease with a compare-and-set on the exact owner token, boot ID, and
PID, and notifies the result-commit and finalization workers.
- `server/src/services/heartbeat/recovery.ts`:
`recoverNativeRunsAfterRestart` calls this first and records a
`native.recovery.transition` event (`awaiting_result_finalization`) for
each released run.
- Only executor leases are released, because only the executor claim
writes the controller identity together with the lease. Finalizer
(`native-finalizer:`) and cleanup (`native-cleanup:`) claims keep an
earlier executor's identity, so they are never released this way and
expire on their own short leases. A finalization-resume token
(`:resume:`) on a result row always belongs to the executor that adopted
it, because a pending resume claim is taken only on a row without a
result.
- Also not released: a live owner, an owner without a recorded process,
a lease of the current boot, a run this process is executing, and remote
workspaces (`nativeWorkspaceSync` or `remoteWorkspace`), which keep
their fenced lease.
- The compare-and-set does not compare the stored expiry. Postgres
stores microseconds that a JavaScript `Date` drops, and an exact-expiry
comparison silently skipped the real lease in the live reproduction.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: documents the rule.

## Verification

- Red then green on embedded Postgres
(`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts`):
- A hard kill with a dead controller's executor lease (first claim,
restart claim, or resumed claim) now finalizes on the next startup: run
`succeeded`, finalization `committed`, task `done`, one result, one run,
no provider dispatch. These tests failed before the fix with `status:
running`.
- A lease expiry stored with microsecond precision is released. This
test failed against the first version of the fix and reproduces the live
miss.
- A live controller of another boot keeps its lease, and so does a lease
of the current boot.
- A live claimant's finalizer or cleanup lease is kept when the recorded
earlier executor is dead.
- `npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts`: 20 passed.
- Related suites pass: `native-session-resumption`,
`native-runner-restart-recovery.integration`,
`native-run-projection-work`, `live-recovery-work`. One
`live-recovery-work` legacy case timed out once under load and passed
when run again by itself.
- Live, local: `tests/restart-chaos/main.ts --workloads C1 --triggers
result --faults K1 --rc06-masked`. The failing case above came from such
a wave. I started its kept database and confirmed the stored lease state
and the compare-and-set miss. Against that same database, the fixed
release expires the stuck executor lease. Two later waves (12 tasks,
`--triggers result`) passed every task. Run events were not kept for
passing tasks, so I cannot confirm that a kill landed in the narrow
pre-finalization window in those waves.

- Live proof on head `8971874654`: local ACPX Claude, workload A1, seed
7411, `--triggers result` (a local variant that fires on A1 2.5–3.5 s
after the run's result proposal), `--keep`. The run passed 4 of 4 tasks.
In two tasks, K1 landed 1.5 s and 2.0 s after `run.result.accepted`. On
the next startup, each run recorded "Server restart released the
accepted native result of a stopped controller for finalization"
(`controller_process_dead`). Each finished `succeeded` about 1 s later,
with its task `done` and exactly one run per task (no extra provider
turn). Before this fix, the same shape stayed `running` until the
10-minute budget ran out (seeds 7411, 7422, and 7423 from the RC-33b
investigation in #19691).

## Risks

- Startup could take a lease from a finalizer that is still running.
Mitigations: the lease must belong to another boot, the controller
process must be proved stopped on this host (the same proof the existing
runner takeover uses), and the update matches the exact owner. Remote
workspaces are excluded. Multi-host deployments keep the existing
PID-liveness assumption that `claimNativeRestartRecoveries` already
makes.
- Low behavioral risk otherwise: finalization uses the existing
reconciler path, which #19591 already exercises after a graceful drain.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, run as an agent in
Claude Code with tool use (shell, file editing, local test execution,
live restart-chaos waves).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 42f6b3a870 fix(runner): keep a restart-lost Codex turn's late usage from failing its continuation (#19718)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native Codex runs continue a turn lost to a control-plane restart
once, in the same conversation (#19699)
> - In restart storm 5, a Codex run crossed one graceful restart. The
continuation started, but the task stopped and needed a Retry
> - The runner log shows the cause. The resumed Codex thread sent the
usage of the lost turn after it accepted the continuation turn. The
runner rejected that usage as `turn_binding_mismatch` and failed the run
> - Recovery marks the lost turn as settled in the durable ledger. It
does not tell the live Codex provider, so the provider treats the old
turn's usage as a foreign event
> - This pull request records the lost turn as settled in the live
provider too
> - The benefit is that a restart-lost Codex turn continues without a
Retry

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19699, #19608, #19501, #15297

**What happened?**

Restart storm 5 (seed 7106). Task t01 (Codex, B5) crossed one K2 SIGTERM
restart. Recovery resumed the dead runner. Runnerd restored the
conversation and recorded `turn.failed` with
`provider_turn_lost_on_restore` (recoverable). The control plane started
the continuation (#19699). Runnerd accepted it as a new provider turn.
About 0.5 s later, Codex sent `thread/tokenUsage/updated` for the lost
turn id. The runner's durable state records these events:

- `turn.accepted` for the new turn `01a1b3e2-…`
- `harness.diagnostic` `turn_binding_mismatch`, method
`thread/tokenUsage/updated`, `expectedTurnId` = new turn,
`receivedTurnId` = lost turn `01a1b3e0-…`
- `turn.failed` (`recoverable: false`) and `run.terminal` failed

The control plane did not see `turn/started` and failed after 30 s with
"runnerd did not report the provider turn identity". The task needed a
manual Retry.

**Expected behavior**

Usage for the lost turn is history. The runner keeps it as a resume
usage snapshot. The continuation runs, and the task continues without a
Retry.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a Codex turn through the durable runner.
2. Kill the runner while the turn is active. Restore so that the
provider reports no active turn (`provider_turn_lost_on_restore`).
3. Start the continuation turn. Let the provider send
`thread/tokenUsage/updated` for the lost turn after it accepts the new
turn.
4. Before this change, the runner fails the continuation with
`turn_binding_mismatch`.

## What Changed

- `provider_backend.rs`: when recovery finds that the previous active
turn ended while the runner was offline, it now also restores that turn
id into the live provider's settled-turn set. The durable ledger already
settled it. The existing settled-turn path then turns its late usage
into `paperclip/resumeUsageSnapshot` and does not bill its `last` usage
to the run.
- The code skips this step when the settled-turn epoch needs a rollover,
the same as the durable ledger.
- Fake Codex: new `--stale-usage-after-turn-start` flag. With durable
turn ids, it sends usage for the previous turn right after it accepts
the next turn, before `turn/started`. This matches the live Codex order.
- New test
`restart_continuation_ignores_late_usage_for_the_turn_lost_on_restore`
in `tests/codex_provider.rs`. It uses the real durable Codex executor
with fake Codex.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: `cargo test -p paperclip-runner-core --test
codex_provider restart_continuation_ignores_late_usage` failed with the
same diagnostic as the live run (`turn_binding_mismatch`, method
`thread/tokenUsage/updated`, `receivedTurnId: provider-turn-1`,
`expectedTurnId: provider-turn-2`).
- Green after the fix: the same test passes. The continuation emits
`turn.started` for `provider-turn-2`, there is no `turn.failed` or
`run.terminal`, and fake Codex saw exactly two `turn/start` calls (the
original and one continuation).
- `cargo test -p paperclip-runner-core`: all suites pass.
`acpx_park_readiness::hosted_park_acpx_preserves_late_goals_and_rejects_foreign_or_busy_observations`
failed once and passed on rerun. This change does not touch ACPX.
- `cargo fmt --check` is clean.
- Not run: the live restart-chaos replay of
`w-20261107T023921-s7106/t01`. The local harness needs provider
credentials that were not available to this session.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change adds one already-ended turn id to the live
provider's settled set. That set is only used to ignore stale events and
to reject reuse of a settled id. So a provider that later reports the
lost turn id as a new active turn is now rejected, as the durable ledger
already does.
- The change does not address a second, separate problem: after the
runner failed the continuation, the control-plane transport waited the
full 30 s turn-start bound and reported "runnerd did not report the
provider turn identity" instead of the runner's `turn_binding_mismatch`.
That message only applies when such a failure occurs. This PR removes
this specific trigger.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 08f7ac03dc fix(recovery): keep a never-started task waiting through a temporary accounting hold (#19702)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Admission checks every wake. A short company accounting hold can
refuse new work after a control-plane restart.
> - When the hold refused a new task's assignment wake, stranded-work
recovery found the task with no run while the hold was still active. It
moved the task to `blocked` with a board recovery comment.
> - A `blocked` task leaves the stranded-assignment sweep, so nothing
woke it after the hold cleared. The task stayed `blocked` with no run,
no interruption and no Retry.
> - The hold was temporary. Tasks created a few seconds later (after the
sweep) started normally once accounting settled.
> - This pull request keeps a never-started task `todo` while a
temporary budget hold lasts. The existing assigned-todo liveness
dispatch then admits it once the hold clears. The task shows the hold it
waits for.
> - The benefit is that a restart no longer silently drops new tasks
created during the accounting settle window.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In a restart-chaos storm on master `06bbcea12f`, three new tasks were
created while the company accounting hold was active. Each assignment
wake got 409 "Company cannot start work while completed runs await
accounting." (or "...native run recovers its unfinished accounting.").
One task rested `blocked` with 0 runs, interruption `null` and
`canRetry=false`. The other two ran later.

**Root cause**
`reconcileStrandedAssignedIssues`
(`server/src/services/recovery/service.ts`, the
`readInvocationBudgetBlock` branch near line 4826) escalates any
assigned task to `blocked` when a budget block exists. It does this
before the assigned-todo no-run branch, which already skips a
budget-blocked task and dispatches it later. So a task that never
started was treated as failed recovery work. The refused wake itself is
stored as a `skipped` `budget.blocked` diagnostic, which is correct; the
escalation removed the only path that re-admits it.

**Expected behavior**
A wake refused by a temporary admission hold waits and is admitted once
the hold clears, with one run. A real hard stop is still a board
decision. Removed assignees and cancelled tasks still do not wake.

**Steps to reproduce**
Create a company with a hard-stop budget and a completed run that has
`cost_accounting_pending = true`. Assign a new `todo` task. The wake
gets 409. Run the stranded-assignment sweep. Before this change the task
becomes `blocked` and never runs.

Related: #19700 bounds the accounting hold itself. This PR is
independent: it handles what happens to a task whose first wake the hold
refused.

## What Changed

- Stranded-work recovery skips a `todo` task with no run while a
temporary budget hold blocks admission. It does not escalate it to
`blocked`. The existing assigned-todo liveness dispatch admits the task
once the hold clears.
- A hard stop (spend at the limit, or blocked unpriced usage) keeps the
existing board escalation. Recovery checks this with the read-only
`policyBlocks` for the policies of the blocking scope. It does not
change budget hold semantics.
- The task interruption projection now covers a `todo` task with no run
whose latest wake was refused with `budget.blocked`. It shows "Waiting
for the budget to allow new work. The task starts automatically when it
does." with no Retry. A budget pause shows the existing "budget" user
action.
- The no-run projection applies the same person-owned gates as the
run-backed projection: a budget pause shows the "budget" action, and an
ordinary agent, project, company or task pause shows "resume". Only an
accounting hold shows the automatic-start text.
- `ExecutionBlockerNotice` shows that wait text for a `working`
presentation that carries a wait reason.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` records the rule.

## Verification

- New embedded-Postgres regression
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-refused-assignment-wake.test.ts`:
- hold active, new task assigned, wake refused (409, `skipped`
`budget.blocked`), two recovery sweeps: the task stays `todo` with no
run and shows the wait reason. Before the fix this failed with `expected
'blocked' to be 'todo'` (the CHA-9 shape).
- hold cleared, two sweeps: exactly one provider turn starts, from
`issue.assigned_todo_liveness_dispatch`, and the task finishes. A later
sweep does not start another turn.
- counter-tests: a terminated assignee and a cancelled task get no run
after the hold clears.
- Existing `creates a board recovery action for budget-blocked assigned
work` (real hard stop) still passes unchanged.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-refused-assignment-wake.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
src/services/task-interruption-presentation.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-issue-liveness-escalation.test.ts` (server) and
`src/components/ExecutionBlockerNotice.test.tsx` (ui).
- Server typecheck and `pnpm check:token-gates`.
- Live restart-chaos storm (local, codex/claude/opencode, 6 in flight,
K2 every 3-4 minutes for 20 minutes, no RC-06 mask), revision
e38bb5c8f7: 17 tasks, 10 pass.
- Two new tasks (CHA-16, CHA-17) were created while the company
accounting hold was active. Their assignment wakes got 409 "Company
cannot start work while completed runs await accounting." Both stayed
`todo` (not `blocked`) and showed `state: working`, `canRetry: false`,
`retryWait.reason: budget.blocked`, "Waiting for the budget to allow new
work. The task starts automatically when it does." No task rested
`blocked` with 0 runs.
- The hold itself never cleared in this wave (`pendingRunCount: 1` at
wave end), so these two tasks did not start before their deadline. That
stuck hold is the separate accounting-closure defect that #19700 bounds.
The other 5 failures (`R3:retry_no_new_run:B5`) are Retries refused by
the same stuck hold. The re-admission after the hold clears is proved by
the embedded-Postgres regression above.

## Risks

- Low. The change narrows one escalation to tasks that never started,
under a budget block that is not a hard stop. Those tasks now stay
`todo` and are re-checked by the existing 30-second stranded-assignment
sweep, which already re-checks every admission gate.
- The hard-stop check reads the blocking scope's active policies once
per budget-blocked never-started task in a sweep. It runs only while a
hold is active.
- The interruption projection adds one indexed read (company + payload
issue id) for `todo` tasks in the batch.

DottaandPaperclip d1306f338b fix(runtime): preserve settled failed harness backups online (#19715)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip coordinates agents, tasks, and their saved execution
state.
> - A replacement server needs native provider backups in shared
storage.
> - The online pre-copy owner accepts successful runs with a committed
result.
> - A sealed backup from a failed or cancelled run can still contain
user history.
> - The existing owner defers those files even after their source
ownership is settled.
> - This change adds a separate preservation owner with exact source and
publication checks.
> - The copy retains the failed outcome and original files while making
the backup readable from a fresh home.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19137 and #19108 for the existing pre-copy and encrypted backup
owners.

**What happened?**

Online pre-copy reports `source_not_successful` for a sealed legacy
backup from a settled failed or cancelled run. The provider files remain
tied to the old disk.

**Expected behavior**

Copy the exact recorded backup when the source has no remaining writer
ownership. Preserve the run status, warnings, result, allocation,
selected session, and local files.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a lease-stamped suspended native backup.
2. Settle its source as a failed run with a terminal-failure coordinator
and no owner.
3. Keep an unrelated execution active.
4. Run canonical online pre-copy. The previous owner defers the source.

## What Changed

- Add a narrow preservation owner for terminal source files. It checks
the physical finalization lock, task, coordinator, run, selected
session, source lease, and source fingerprints.
- Recheck that owner before the encrypted upload receipt and
current-backup publication.
- Reuse the finite workspace keepalive during long source checks and
defer source-local invalid archives.
- Add optional exact-root stamp verification. A valid previous backup
cannot authorize a changed current payload. Existing callers keep their
fallback behavior.
- Bind the archive input to the checked owner and record an activity
event after publication.
- Keep pending object receipts after an uncertain or failed publication.
- Add focused PostgreSQL and filesystem controls. Update the existing
migration runbook.

## Verification

- Real PostgreSQL baseline on unchanged production: the new positive
case fails with `source_not_successful` instead of publishing the
backup.
- Same case passes after the change and decrypts/restores the exact
provider history.
- Final head 4b6cf093be: three focused suites pass, 81 tests in 62.26
seconds, including existing storage and stamp consumers. The canonical
PostgreSQL wrapper exited zero and completed cleanup.
- Controls cover cancelled and failed sources, real committed results,
expired nonnull owners, physical owner/lock contention, late
source/owner changes, previous-tree fallback, and archive root/scope
binding.
- Both review regressions fail with the committed pre-fix owners: a real
30-second database idle timeout expires during a 32-second exact-source
check, and a stamp-valid invalid archive stops the pass. The fixed owner
keeps its transaction live and copies the next valid source. Source
hashes and automatic file restoration were recorded for each leg.
- Final-head strict server TypeScript and module-boundary checks pass
after the master rebase and required Runner/shared declaration rebuild.
- No source migration, provider mutation, or archive apply was executed.

## Risks

This path does not reconstruct missing backups or prove that missing
provider state is recoverable. Such sources remain blockers. It does not
take expired owners or report failed work as successful. Source hashing
adds bounded disk work while source row locks are held; unrelated
executions remain active in the PostgreSQL fixture. Existing archive
size limits, authenticated encryption, object readback, and publication
fencing remain in place. No schema, API route, scheduler, or
rollout-policy change is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6 family; exact runtime model ID and context capacity
are not exposed in this session), with reasoning, repository editing,
code execution, and tool use.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 ece09c156a fix(runner): keep an accepted result when ACPX reports its turn lost on restore (#19691)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native Codex, OpenCode, and ACPX runs survive control-plane
restarts: runnerd restores the conversation, and the control plane
continues the task from its checkpoint
> - #19658 made recovery keep a durable result when a Codex restore
loses the turn that proposed it. It covered the recovery read path only
> - ACPX reports the lost turn differently. After the restored
conversation reopens, a live `turn.failed` arrives with
`provider_turn_lost_on_restore`
> - That live terminal still turned an accepted `done` result into a
failed run. The run ended `failed` (`adapter_failed`), and the finished
work needed a Retry
> - This pull request moves the rule into the shared terminal mapping. A
restore-lost turn with a held result for that exact turn settles as
completed, whichever path reports it
> - The benefit is that ACPX and OpenCode tasks that already finished
keep their accepted result after a restart, as Codex tasks now do

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19658, #19525, #19501, #19539

**What happened?**
In a restart chaos wave, an ACPX Claude task (workload A1) wrote its
brief and proposed a `done` result (`run.result.proposed`, then a
completed `paperclip_finish` tool call). Then a K1 and a K6 crash loop
hit the control plane, and `resume_dead_runner` ran at controller
generations 2 and 3. The restored ACPX conversation emitted
`turn.failed` with `provider_turn_lost_on_restore` (`recoverable: true`)
for the checkpointed turn. The control plane then emitted
`run.result.accepted` with the `done` result, but `run.terminal` came
back `runTerminalState: failed` / `turnTerminalState: failed` /
`reportedWorkDisposition: done`. The run ended `failed` /
`adapter_failed`, "Native session failed".

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native ACPX (or OpenCode) task through runnerd.
2. Let the agent call `paperclip_finish`, and let the control plane
persist the proposal.
3. Kill the control plane and runner before the turn ends.
4. Let restart recovery resume the run. The restored runner reports the
turn lost on restore as a live terminal.

**Expected behavior**
Recovery finalizes the accepted result, and the run succeeds.

**Actual behavior**
ACPX and OpenCode use the same Codex harness session as Codex
(`codex-native-backend.ts`). Recovery restored the held result for the
turn from the durable proposal. But the live `turn/completed`
notification with `status: failed` and `provider_turn_lost_on_restore`
went through `mapTerminalTurn`, which emitted `turn.failed`. The backend
maps `turn.failed` to `runTerminalState: failed`. #19658 handled only
the `thread/read` reconciliation path.

## What Changed

- `codex-session-terminal.ts`: a new
`settleRestoreLostTurnWithHeldResult` helper. When a terminal is
`failed` with `provider_turn_lost_on_restore` and the session holds the
semantic result that this exact turn proposed, the turn settles as
`completed`. `mapTerminalTurn` applies it first, so live notifications
and recovery reads follow one rule.
- `codex-session-terminal.ts`: the helper also covers
`acpx_active_turn_recovery_closed`. Runnerd's ACPX backend
(`acpx_provider_backend.rs`, `restore_session_if_needed`) emits that
code instead of restoring the conversation when its own state already
recorded the accepted result. It is the same restart loss, with the
result already accepted. #19525 already keeps accepted results when
close cannot prove suspension, and session close still handles
`provider_exit_unconfirmed`.
- `codex-harness-session.ts`: `reconcile()` keeps only the missing-turn
case from #19658. The restore-lost read case and the prior-terminal
check now use the shared helper.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: the restart paragraph now states that
the rule covers Codex, OpenCode, and ACPX, and both report paths.

## Verification

- Red before the fix, with the real Codex native backend
(`createCodexNativeSessionBackend`) and a fake transport through
`executeNativeSession`: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner
exec vitest run src/native-session-runtime.test.ts -t "journaled
completion proposal"`. The new `restore-lost live` scenario failed.
Green after the fix: the run completes with the journaled result on
`turn-1` and a succeeded terminal, and no `turn/start` is sent. The
`restore-lost read` scenario passes on both (#19658 already covered it).
- Driver red/green:
`src/drivers/codex/codex-app-server-driver.recovery.test.ts -t "live
restore-lost"`. With a held result, the live lost terminal was
`turn.failed` before the fix and is `turn.completed` after it. With no
held result, it stays `turn.failed` with the lost cause, so the #19501
continuation is unchanged.
- The driver case was extended to `acpx_active_turn_recovery_closed`
(red with a held result before the extension, then green). It was found
in a live replay where the run ended `failed`/`adapter_failed` with an
accepted `done` result.
- Suites: `src/drivers/codex/` and `src/native-session-runtime.test.ts`
(580 tests), plus `src/backends/` and
`src/live/runnerd-restart-continuation.test.ts`, pass.
`typecheck:typescript` passes.
- Live chaos replays (ACPX Claude): results and a separate new signature
are in a comment below.

## Risks

- The rule needs a held result whose turn id equals the lost turn.
Recovery restores that result only from the durable
`run.result.proposed` for the checkpointed turn, so a result for another
turn does not settle it.
- A restore-lost turn without a held result keeps its failure and the
bounded same-conversation continuation.
- Real provider failures and other terminal states are unchanged.
- No schema, profile, pack contract, or database changes.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 8a34c1b62c fix(budgets): bound the accounting hold so one missing receipt cannot wedge a company (#19700)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Pending run accounting holds new company work until it settles
(#19497, #19606, #19673)
> - A run settles only with closure evidence: a verified local stop, or
a terminated remote sandbox. Without that evidence it held the whole
company forever. In restart-chaos storm 4, a single run held 35 tasks
for hours
> - Two more shapes kept the hold alive. A run whose result had already
been accepted never counted as closed. A recovery that already owned its
held reservation was refused by other tasks' recovering accounting, so
concurrent recoveries waited on each other
> - This pull request bounds the hold, closes accepted-result runs on a
verified stop, and lets an owned recovery finish
> - The benefit is that no single missing receipt can wedge a company,
while genuinely unknown spend still surfaces under the blocking policy

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Follow-up to #19497, #19606 and #19673.

**What happened?**
- Storm 4: run `f879895f` timed out in `session.open`. Its local stop
was never verified (its process identity is still recorded), recovery
ended in `terminal_failure`, and its receipt never became ready. From
then on, every new-work wake got 409 "New work must wait while a native
run recovers its unfinished accounting". That was 93 refusals, 35
blocked tasks, and no Retry.
- Storm 4: run `6d3c76bf` was resuming as the recovery owner with its
own held reservation. `reserveRunBudget` refused it because other tasks'
runs were recovering.
- Wave s7401: run `0a3a849d` failed after its result was accepted, with
a verified local stop. It had 10 receipts across 2 sources, all
incomplete with 0 tokens. It stayed "completed runs await accounting"
because closure only covered coordinators in terminal failure with no
result.

**What did you expect?**
A run without closure evidence holds new work only for a bounded time,
then settles visibly. An accepted-result run with a verified stop closes
like a terminal failure. A recovery that already owns admitted work can
finish.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Restart the control plane during several native turns so that one
run's local stop is never verified.
2. Observe the run stay "recovering" and every new wake refused
indefinitely.

## What Changed

- `run-cost-accounting.ts`:
- A coordinator counts as settled when it ended in terminal failure
without a result, or when it has an accepted result. The verified-stop
and remote-termination closures use that rule, which covers the s7401
shape.
- A native run whose provider never started settles at once, like a
pre-provider failure, with no charge and its reservation released. Its
recovery has settled, no usage receipt was ever journaled (a provider
turn journals one as soon as it starts), and its local process never
launched or was verified stopped (wave s7403, run 3c1d7b70,
`session.open` timeout).
- New bound `ACCOUNTING_CLOSURE_TIMEOUT_MS`: the remote runner reconnect
grace (7 minutes) plus 3 minutes. A terminal native run with a settled
coordinator and no closure evidence settles at the bound:
- its known usage is recorded as unpriced (or estimated from the rate
card), with provenance evidence "closure evidence never arrived…";
    - it is marked `accountingClosureTimedOut`;
- a `cost.accounting_closure_timed_out` activity entry names the run.
- The reconciler selects these runs, and `readCostAccountingWork`
schedules a wake at the bound.
- `budget-exposure.ts`: a timed-out closure's final charge is exempt
from none of the unpriced-block exemptions. Under the `block` policy it
raises the normal budget notice ("recorded usage has no reliable price")
instead of a silent hold.
- `budgets.ts`, `budget-reservations.ts`,
`run-dispatch/adapters/postgres.ts`: when a validated recovery owner
continues admitted work, admission and both dispatch rechecks apply only
hard stops and pauses. Pending and recovering accounting holds still
gate new work.
- `doc/SPEC-implementation.md`: documents the bound, the accepted-result
closure and the provenance.

## Verification

- `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts` (embedded Postgres). All of
these fail on master and pass here:
- s7401 shape (accepted result, verified stop, all receipts incomplete
with 0 tokens): settles and clears admission.
- A run without closure evidence: held before the bound with a scheduled
wake, then settled with the "closure evidence never arrived" provenance,
the `accountingClosureTimedOut` flag and an activity entry. Admission
clears under `allow`.
- Storm 4 `f879895f` shape (terminal failure, recorded process identity,
no stop event): held, then released after the bound.
  - The blocking policy still blocks on a timed-out closure.
- s7403 shape (no receipts, model unknown): a run whose process never
launched, or was verified stopped, settles at once with no charge and
its reservation released. With an unverified process it waits for the
bound.
- Storm 4 `6d3c76bf` shape: a recovery owner with its held reservation
reserves past another task's recovering accounting, while new work for
another task still waits.
- Existing suites pass locally: budget-enforcement-scoping,
budget-enforcement-worker, native-stop-accounting, cost-data-quality,
heartbeat-cost-accounting, run-cost-accounting, budgets-service. Server
typecheck passes.
- The other storm 4 terminal-failure runs (`2e477ae9`, `e4d2e14d`,
`6d3c76bf`, `7d21a44c`, `4bc49df0`, `1d85fbd9`) were already settled by
#19673 in that database (`cost_accounting_pending=false`) and were not
holding admission. `f879895f` alone held it.

## Risks

- After the bound, a run whose provider might still be running settles
as unpriced. Under the `block` policy that raises a hard-stop budget
notice, by design. Under `allow`, work continues and a late receipt
still reconciles.
- A recovery owner skips accounting holds, so concurrent recoveries can
spend while other tasks' accounting is unknown. Hard stops still apply,
consistent with best-effort budget enforcement.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 4612fa9fb4 fix(native): restart a drained Daytona run whose runner opened its session (#19711)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs on Daytona start a `paperclip-runnerd` process in a
sandbox. A graceful shutdown (every rolling deploy) suspends live native
runs "without cancelling provider work". The next boot then decides how
each run continues.
> - #19583, #19616 and #19684 let restart recovery start a remote
bootstrap again when durable evidence proves that no provider work
exists.
> - A chaos replay found another window. The drain suspended a remote
run just after its sandbox runner opened the provider session, before
the controller sent a turn and before a session snapshot existed.
> - Recovery accepted only an unfinished `session.open` in the
controller checkpoint, so it blocked the task as ambiguous. A Retry
recovered it, but automatic continuation was lost.
> - A related replay showed that the same-run bootstrap reuses the
sandbox. The interrupted runner can still hold the runner ingress port
there (`runner_ingress_bind_conflict`).
> - This pull request proves the "session opened, no turn" case and
stops the interrupted runner before relaunch.
> - The benefit is that a deploy during Daytona startup continues
automatically, without a port conflict.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A chaos replay (ACPX Claude on Daytona) sent SIGTERM while a remote run
was starting. The drain recorded `restart_suspended`. The dying
controller still launched the runner and finished `session.open`. On the
next boot, restart recovery returned
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence` with disposition `blocked`.

The decrypted controller checkpoint of that run showed:
- `run.prepare` completed and `session.open` completed (provider session
opened).
- Committed events `session.started`, `session.capabilities.updated` and
`session.goal.snapshot` (`ackedSourceSeq: 3`).
- No turn command. No run-profile session snapshot and no projected
provider events.

On the next run in that replay, a same-run bootstrap relaunched the
runner in the same sandbox (one lease for all attempts). It failed with
`runner_ingress_bind_conflict: failed to bind listener: Address already
in use`, because the interrupted runner from 51 s earlier was still
listening there. The bounded same-run retry recovered it on its last
attempt.

**Expected behavior**

When the durable controller record proves that no turn was ever sent,
recovery starts the bootstrap again. It first stops the interrupted
runner in the reused sandbox.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native run on a Daytona environment.
2. Send SIGTERM to the control plane while the runner opens its provider
session.
3. Restart the control plane after the controller lease expires.
4. See that restart recovery blocks the task with
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

Root cause: in
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-restart-recovery.ts`, the
remote checkpoint proof (`remoteBootstrapProvenIncomplete`, #19583)
required an unfinished `session.open` with no committed events, and no
provider events at all. A completed `session.open` with only
session-open events had no rule, so it fell through to
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

Refs #19583, #19616, #19684, #19524

## What Changed

- `native-bootstrap-proof.ts`: new `runnerdStateHasNoProviderTurn`
proof. The state must hold only `run.prepare` and `session.open`
(pending or completed) and no warm, staged or adopted state. Every
committed event must be a session-open event, with contiguous sequence
numbers from 1, so no event is hidden. Only the controller issues turn
commands, and it writes each one to Postgres before sending it.
- `native-runner-checkpoint.ts`:
`nativeRunnerCheckpointRemoteBootstrapProof` replaces
`nativeRunnerCheckpointProvesIncompleteBootstrap`. It also reads a
bounded number of `event:N` parts and returns which proof holds. It
still rebuilds the state in memory.
- `native-restart-recovery.ts`: a remote run can now claim
`bootstrap_incomplete` with reason `remote_session_opened_without_turn`.
Projected provider events may only be session-open events
(`harness.ready`, `session.started`, `session.resumed`,
`session.updated`), and only together with the stronger session-opened
proof. A turn or provider event still blocks.
- `native-session-executor.ts`:
- For a remote sandbox target, the executor accepts the same proof on
the restored record.
- Before the same-run bootstrap relaunches,
`stopStaleRemoteRunnerBeforeBootstrap` stops the interrupted runner in
the reused sandbox. It uses the verified identity marker and process
check from reattachment, which signals only a process whose identity
matches this run: SIGTERM, a wait of up to 10 s, then SIGKILL.
- The stop is best effort. If no prior runner can be verified, nothing
is stopped, and the bounded same-run retry still handles any conflict.
- `doc/run-log-events.md`: document the reason and the stop.

## Verification

- Red, then green: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts
-t "drained remote"`. Before the fix, the opened-session case (with a
projected `session.started`) returned `blocked` /
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.
- These keep the hold: a `turn.start` command, a committed
`turn.started`, an acknowledged event that is missing from the record,
and a projected `turn.started`. The executor test restores the
checkpoint and checks that the local proof is false and the remote proof
is true.
- Regression: `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration`,
`native-session-executor`, `native-restart-recovery`,
`native-bootstrap-retry.integration` and `heartbeat/recovery`: 1460
passed, 14 skipped.
- Stale runner stop: controlled sandbox-runner tests
(`native-session-executor.test.ts`, "stale runner stop before a same-run
remote bootstrap") run the real reattachment identity and process
scripts against a fake sandbox runner:
  - a verified runner that exits on SIGTERM gets SIGTERM only;
  - a runner that ignores SIGTERM gets SIGTERM, then SIGKILL;
  - a runner with another identity gets no signal;
  - no live prior runner means no signal.
- Live Daytona proof (wave `w-20261107T021837-s29`, ACPX Claude,
`--faults K2 --triggers time,result`, 4 tasks, concurrency 1). The image
was built from current master
(`paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:71f711ab…`), and its content id
matches this branch.
- All 4 tasks crossed a graceful restart, and all passed R1. Two of the
K2s fired on the `result` trigger, during a running remote turn.
- The K2 during a turn reattached to the live remote runner
(`reattach_remote_runner`, generation 2), as designed.
- Task t01 failed R6 with an orphan Daytona sandbox that no lease
references. The graceful restart came during sandbox creation. This is a
separate signature, outside this change.
- The timed faults did not land in the exact "session opened, no turn"
window. The integration tests cover that window with the evidence from
the saved replay database.

## Risks

- The proof relies on two facts: only the controller issues turn
commands, and the controller writes each command before sending it
(`#sendJson` waits for the checkpoint flush). A turn always leaves a
`turn.start` command in the record.
- The provider session opened in the old sandbox runner is not resumed.
The new bootstrap opens a fresh session. No turn ran in the old one, so
no work is lost.
- The runner stop sends signals inside the run's own sandbox. It signals
only after the existing reattachment identity and process checks pass.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file edits, GitHub CLI) and extended reasoning.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 3fedfe8763 fix(runner-e2e): wait out a briefly uncertain owned group instead of failing the stop (#19692)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The restart chaos harness and the runner e2e suites stop and restart
the control plane through one process-tree owner
(`tests/runner-e2e/process-tree-owner.ts`)
> - The owner signals only process groups whose identity it has proven,
and refuses everything when a group's identity becomes uncertain
> - Under load a group can turn over between two `ps` snapshots: the
observed members exit, and a straggler that nobody saw start is left in
the group, reparented away from every owned anchor
> - The stopper treated that as fatal on the first inspection, so a K2
graceful stop at load 28 failed in under a second, and a chaos storm
wave was marked as a harness error although the server came back
> - This pull request makes the stopper re-inspect within its existing
deadline until the uncertainty settles. It still never signals the
uncertain group, and it fails with the original error if the uncertainty
persists
> - The benefit is that chaos waves under load stop failing on a harness
race, without weakening the rule against signaling unproven processes

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19470

**What is the problem?**
`stopOwnedProcessTree` fails at once with "Owned process group identity
became uncertain" when, under load, a group's observed members exit and
an unobserved straggler remains for a moment. In a chaos storm this
failed a K2 stop 0.9 s after SIGTERM (load 28), and the wave exited as a
harness error.

**What is the expected behavior?**
The stopper waits (within the same grace or forced deadline) for a later
inspection that settles the group, and it never signals the uncertain
group. If the straggler outlives the deadline, the stop still fails with
the same error.

**Why does it matter?**
A harness-only race must not invalidate a chaos wave, and the fix must
not let the harness signal a process whose ownership is not proven.

## What Changed

- `tests/runner-e2e/server-stop.ts`: the chaos and e2e server stopper
(the actual K2 path) uses the same bounded settle-wait for its graceful
observe/signal and its SIGKILL escalation. Live evidence: a K2 at load
13.9 failed in 0.5 s on an ACPX Claude provider group (launcher, reaper,
module-hook loader, `claude` runtime) that tore itself down during the
drain and was gone 0.4 s later.
- `tests/runner-e2e/process-tree-owner.ts`: the uncertainty error now
names the unowned members (pid, ppid, pgid, kind, start).
`settleUncertainIdentity` is exported and shared. Export the
`UNCERTAIN_GROUP_IDENTITY` message prefix. `stopOwnedProcessTree`
retries the grace signal, the SIGKILL escalation and the stop check
every 100 ms while that error persists, bounded by the existing grace
deadline and one forced window (set before escalation and reused by the
escalation retry, the stop check and the fallback), so a stop never
exceeds gracefulMs + forcedMs. Other errors, and an uncertainty that
outlives the deadline, take the existing fallback path unchanged. The
owner's identity checks do not change, and neither does `signal()`.
- `tests/runner-e2e/process-tree-owner.test.ts`: three tests. An
uncertainty that starts only at SIGKILL escalation fails within one
forced window and never sends SIGKILL. A brief turnover settles and the
stop succeeds without signaling the uncertain group or killing the
direct child. A persistent turnover still rejects with "identity became
uncertain" and never signals.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run --config tests/runner-e2e/vitest.config.ts
tests/runner-e2e/process-tree-owner.test.ts
tests/runner-e2e/server-stop.test.ts`: 35 pass across
`process-tree-owner.test.ts` and `server-stop.test.ts`, including 5 new
tests; the new brief-turnover tests fail on the old stoppers. With the
old stopper, the first new test fails: it rejects on the first
inspection and then kills the direct child.
- `node scripts/typecheck-test-projects.mjs tests/runner-e2e`: passes.

## Risks

- Low risk, test infrastructure only.
- A stop that hits a persistent uncertainty now fails at the deadline
(up to the grace time) instead of at once. It sends no extra signals.

## Model Used

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

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

**What happened?**

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

**Expected behavior**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

**Paperclip version or commit**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

Focused public commands:

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

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

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

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 55c9c44e41 fix: preserve database-only failed controller evidence (#19714)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip preserves failed work as well as successful work.
> - Ephemeral enrollment must retain each selected controller source.
> - A failed source can already exist entirely in an encrypted database
checkpoint.
> - Its original inline snapshot does not create a local filesystem
dependency.
> - The migration owner must prove that both legacy files are absent
before accepting that case.
> - This change preserves the failed evidence without creating execution
authority.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #19678.

**What happened?**

Startup still reports `native_controllers_require_migration` for a
failed retained source with a valid database checkpoint, its original
inline snapshot, and no local controller or supervisor. The online
archive owner reports that the source is already absent. The existing
database-only preservation case accepts only a missing inline snapshot.

**Expected behavior**

Accept the exact database-only failed evidence after full checkpoint and
identity validation. Keep a present local payload blocked. Retain the
failed run, original snapshot, coordinator, task pointer and queued
work.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Store a valid encrypted checkpoint for a failed native run.
2. Keep its matching inline session snapshot and terminal-failure
coordinator.
3. Remove both legacy controller files.
4. Check local controller obligations.
5. The old owner reports an obligation even though the evidence is
already in the database.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The fix builds on current master `d5c4f7dd02`.

**Deployment mode**

Hosted native Runner with durable controller checkpoints. The local
regression uses the existing real PostgreSQL and encrypted checkpoint
fixture.

## What Changed

- Add a narrow database-only failed-source preservation case to the
existing migration owner.
- Require the decoded checkpoint, protocol header, admitted execution,
selected run and inline snapshot to match their exact scope.
- Require both the controller and supervisor paths to be absent. A file
or link keeps the local obligation blocked.
- Retain the earlier null-snapshot predicate and all original failed
execution evidence. Create no recovery metadata or executable authority.
- Exercise the actual startup and maintenance consumers. Document the
preservation boundary.

## Verification

- Final revision `1b1da543dafd576e3c420657e3c2c6d0c882172d`: all checks
are terminal, with 56 successful and four skipped, zero pending and zero
failures. The [required CI
aggregate](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42329501690/job/128275664414)
passed. Build, types, server/Runner/serialized suites, end-to-end
aggregate and Snyk passed. [Fresh exact-head
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19714#issuecomment-6701018015)
is 5/5 with no open threads.

- Review found that the first non-recovery assertion stopped at the
queued fixture's missing current binding. The fixture now binds the
exact native issue/session before calling the real resolver and asserts
`unsupported:metadata_format` from the selected failed source. That
corrected case passes in 4.58 seconds, with wrapper exit 0 and cleanup
complete. The production predicate is unchanged. The original startup
RED remains valid. The final source/test type graph, module boundaries
and diff checks pass. Fresh revision CI and review remain required.

- The actual startup regression failed before the source change: one
case, 16.62 seconds, expected the absent-files obligation to be false
but received true. The wrapper exited 1 and completed cleanup. This
failure is retained.
- The final focused owner run passed nine cases in 10.79 seconds. It
covers the new DB-only case, controller/supervisor presence, every
inline scope field, foreign checkpoint Runner/session identities, the
unchanged null-snapshot case, and existing online/offline archival
controls. The wrapper exited 0 and completed cleanup.
- The new case verifies unchanged run, coordinator, checkpoint and
task-session rows, retained queued work, no upload, and no invented
recoverable session.
- The full qualified server/test source type graph passes with
db/shared/Runner source aliases. Module boundaries and diff checks pass.
Required broad package builds and regression suites remain in CI.
- Read-only source diagnosis validated one exact existing checkpoint
with the canonical decoder and matching header, run, Runner and session
bindings. No source profile or secret values were emitted. No hosted
mutation, admission hold, cancellation, status change, or
writers-stopped claim was performed.

## Risks

- A false database-only classification could hide local bytes. Both
exact legacy paths must be absent, and every protocol and database
binding must match.
- Corrupt or mismatched checkpoints still fail closed. Existing failed
evidence does not become successful or executable.
- The original null-snapshot case is unchanged. Present local files
still require the existing preservation path.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 a5fe5deebe fix(environments): reclaim sandboxes left by a restart during acquire or teardown (#19696)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Remote agent runs execute in provider sandboxes (for example
Daytona) that Paperclip creates and must clean up
> - Before each provider create, Paperclip saves a durable creation
intent (`sandbox_creation_operations`). Recovery uses it to find and
destroy a sandbox whose lease was never committed
> - Recovery waited 30 minutes after creation before it checked an
intent, because a live server could still be waiting for the provider
> - After a restart, the creating server is gone, but the intent still
waited the full 30 minutes. A short-lived or redeployed instance never
reclaimed those sandboxes
> - The teardown that follows has the same problem: a teardown claim
fences other sweeps for 15 minutes, and a restart during the claim kept
the sandbox alive until the fence expired
> - This pull request saves the server process identity with each intent
and each teardown claim, and ends the wait when same-host proof shows
that process exited
> - The benefit is that a restart during sandbox acquire or teardown no
longer leaves paid provider sandboxes behind

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A control-plane restart during Daytona sandbox acquire left the created
sandbox without an `environment_leases` row. In one restart chaos wave,
6 creation intents stayed `pending` with `next_attempt_at` = creation +
30 minutes. The wave ended (and its environment was deleted) before that
time, so 4 sandboxes stayed `stopped` in Daytona. Only Daytona's own
auto-delete would remove them. Two of the runs did not exist in
`heartbeat_runs` because they were non-run acquires; their intents still
had the run id.

**Expected behavior**
After a restart, each sandbox that this instance and company created,
with no committed lease and no live creator, is found by its exact
creation name and labels and destroyed through the plugin, after the
existing ownership checks. Sandboxes from another instance, another
host, or a live server stay untouched. Nothing acts org-wide.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a Daytona-backed run.
2. Kill the server (SIGKILL) after the creation intent commits and
before the lease commits.
3. Restart the server. On master, the intent stays `pending` for 30
minutes and the sandbox stays in Daytona.
4. The regression tests in
`server/src/__tests__/sandbox-creation-operations.test.ts` reproduce
this with the controlled provider fixture.

Refs #18357 (added the durable creation intent this change completes).

**Paperclip version or commit**
master 07a548073a (live proof at 8d525dba7d + this change,
content-matched to the runner image)

## What Changed

- New `server/src/services/controller-process-identity.ts`: records the
server boot id, PID, a PID-space hash and the process start time. The
PID-space hash covers the hostname, the kernel boot id and the PID
namespace on Linux (the hostname and boot time elsewhere), so containers
that share a hostname but not a PID namespace never judge each other. It
proves that a recorded process exited only in the same PID space: the
PID is gone, or the PID is live with a definitely different start time.
Another PID space, an unreadable identity, an unidentified record, or
this server never counts as exited.
- `sandbox-creation-operations.ts`: each creation intent stores the
creating process and its settle deadline. Each recovery pass first moves
intents whose creator exited to "due now". If the early lookup finds no
sandbox before the settle deadline, the intent stays `pending` and
retries. It does not become manual reconciliation, because the provider
can still materialize an aborted request.
- `heartbeat/recovery.ts`: each pending-cleanup teardown claim stores
the claiming process, bound to its claim attempt id. Before the sweep
reads due leases, it ends the 15-minute fence of a claim whose claimer
exited. A newer claim from another path (workspace repair, export retry)
that kept an older record has a different attempt id, so it is never
released.
- Both recovery passes page through candidates with a stable id cursor.
Live, foreign or unidentified owners therefore cannot hide an abandoned
record behind one page.
- This covers every `createOwnedSandbox` caller, including non-task
probe and qualification acquires. Their intents have no issue and a
generated run id, which is why their run ids are missing from
`heartbeat_runs`.
- Recovery uses only the existing paths: exact
`paperclip-create-<operation id>` name and label inspection in the
plugin, `pending_cleanup` lease, and plugin teardown. No org-wide
listing or deletion was added.

## Verification

- Red, then green (controlled provider fixture, real embedded
PostgreSQL):
- `sandbox-creation-operations.test.ts` → "after the creating server
exits mid-acquire". Before the fix, the exited-creator case left no
cleanup lease. After the fix, the next sweep creates the
`pending_cleanup` lease and the teardown destroys the sandbox.
Counter-tests: a creation owned by this live server, another live
process, another host, or a committed lease is not inspected or
destroyed. An early "not found" keeps the intent pending, and a later
sweep still finds a late allocation.
- `heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep.test.ts` → "a teardown claim whose
server stopped mid-attempt". Before the fix, a lost claim blocked the
teardown. After the fix, it retries now. Counter-tests: claims from this
live server, another host, or without an identity keep their fence.
- Review regressions: "keeps the fence of a newer claim that kept an
earlier attempt's server record" and "pages past more fenced claims than
one sweep page" fail on the previous commit and pass now. "pages past
more unprovable creations than one page" guards the creation-side
cursor; the old unordered page happened to include the row, so it was
not red.
- After the review changes, `sandbox-creation-operations`,
`heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep`, `live-recovery-work` and
`environment-cleanup-work` pass (155 tests), and `tsc --noEmit` for
`server` passes.
- Related suites pass: sandbox-creation-operations (28),
environment-cleanup-work, task-creation-recovery,
native-startup-cleanup-recovery, sandbox-orphan-cleanup-spool,
plugin-warm-tasks, idle-completed-history (187 total), and the
pending-cleanup sweep suite. `tsc --noEmit` for `server` passes.
- Live Daytona restart chaos wave `w-20261107T001609-s11` (codex, A1,
K2+K4, concurrency 2, RC-06 masked, image `sha256:2767e91c…`, first fix
only): 4/4 tasks pass, all restart-crossing, R6 pass for every task,
`orphanSandboxes: []`. The server log and database show two creation
intents killed by K4 being reconciled right after restart and destroyed
through Paperclip. A third reclaimed sandbox lost its teardown claim to
the next K4 kill in the same second, so its 15-minute fence blocked the
environment delete. The second commit fixes that.
- Live Daytona wave `w-20261107T012048-s11`, same plan, both commits:
**4/4 pass, all restart-crossing, R6 pass for every task,
`orphanSandboxes: []`, no held leases.** The environment delete through
Paperclip succeeded with `remainingSandboxes: []`. One restart-time
sweep destroyed one sandbox through the plugin.

## Risks

- Same-host proof relies on PID liveness and process start time, as
native controller takeover already does. A false "exited" result is
limited to recovery running early. The plugin still checks exact name
and labels before any delete. An early not-found result stays pending.
- Multi-host deployments sharing one database keep the old deadlines,
because a different PID space is never judged. A redeploy into a new
host or PID namespace also keeps the old deadlines (fail closed).
- The live waves ran before the review commits. The review commits only
narrow when a record is judged, and they add paging.
- Intents and claims written before this change have no process
identity, so they keep the old deadlines.
- No schema change. The new fields live in existing JSON metadata.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 f09b4704b6 fix(recovery): keep the agent's work when Retry continues after exhausted or blocked recovery (#19666)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Task recovery restarts agent work after a control-plane restart or a
failed run
> - When automatic recovery runs out or is blocked, the user clicks
Retry
> - Retry then started a fresh isolated attempt cloned from committed

that is safe, and tells the agent where the old files are when a fresh
attempt is still required
> - The benefit is that a Retry continues the real work instead of
starting over

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
After `native_restart_recovery_blocked` or an exhausted recovery
generation, a Retry ran in
`isolated-workspace-attempts/<company>/<issue>/<run>/workspace`. That
directory was a detached clone of the base ref. It did not contain the
uncommitted edits from the issue's git worktree. It was not on the task
branch. The agent was not told where the old files were. A restart-chaos
wave graded this as an R2 failure (`pre_fault_files_lost`). A second
defect: when a restart hit the bootstrap of a fresh attempt, preparing
the same run again failed with
`isolated_task_directory_binding_mismatch`, so the Retry could not
finish.

**Expected behavior**
Retry continues in the task's own workspace with its edits and `.git`
intact when no other writer can hold it. When a fresh attempt is really
needed, the old directory stays as it was and the agent gets its path
and its changed files. Preparing the same attempt again after a restart
is idempotent.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at `e482f0f632`, restart-chaos waves on 2026-11-06.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native task in a git worktree. Let the agent write an
uncommitted file.
2. Kill the control plane so recovery ends in
`native_restart_recovery_blocked` or an exhausted generation.
3. Click Retry.
4. The successor runs in a fresh clone without the uncommitted file or
the task branch.

Root cause:
- `server/src/services/fresh-workspace-continuation.ts`
`canSelectFreshWorkspace` returns a fresh intent for every task Retry
that has a system recovery record.
- `server/src/services/explicit-native-continuation.ts` (fresh selection
in the source loop) then always persisted `fresh_isolated_workspace`.
- `server/src/services/fresh-workspace-seed.ts`
`materializeFreshWorkspaceSeed` clones the project source at the base
ref with `--no-local`, checks out a detached commit and removes
`origin`. Uncommitted work and the branch are not carried over.
- RC-35: `server/src/services/heartbeat/workspace-preparation.ts`
rejected any reusable existing workspace while `fresh` was true,
including the attempt directory that the same run had already created
and bound.

## What Changed

- New continuation mode `reuse_issue_workspace`. At Retry admission,
after all stop proofs pass, `retainedIssueWorkspaceForRetry` checks that
the task's bound workspace is the single local directory the failed run
used, owned by the task, not a shared workspace, not under remote
storage authority, with no other lease, failed cleanup or running
workspace operation, a settled recovery generation, no workspace-export
failure, and a readable Git state rooted at that directory. Then the
Retry continues there with a fresh session. Otherwise the existing fresh
attempt is kept.
- The reuse decision consumes the generation's one alternative attempt
(`freshAttemptRunId`), sets the Retry strategy to `continue`, and
records `issue.retry_workspace_reused`.
- Environment selection pins the reused workspace binding and fails with
`retry_workspace_binding_mismatch` if the binding changed before
dispatch.
- Fresh fallback: the run's continuation context gets `priorWorkspace`
(path, branch, bounded list of uncommitted files). Git status is read
with optional locks disabled. The prompt tells the agent to inspect it
and carry over the work. The old directory is not changed.
- RC-35: preparing the same fresh attempt again after a restart reuses
the attempt directory that this run already bound.
- Reuse checks run Git through the shared workspace scan scheduler with
short deadlines, because admission can hold the issue lock.
- `doc/task-recovery.md` and `doc/execution-semantics.md` describe the
new contract.

## Verification

- `server/src/services/retry-workspace-continuity.test.ts` (embedded
Postgres, real git worktree with uncommitted edits):
- exhausted-generation Retry and blocked-recovery Retry continue in the
same worktree, `.git` file and branch intact. Both failed before the fix
(readiness was `fresh_isolated_workspace`).
- Blocked recovery without a generation and duplicate holds for one run
also reuse the worktree. A running operation orphaned by a restart of
the stopped source does not block reuse.
- The fresh attempt is kept when the workspace is unsafe: live lease,
running workspace operation, corrupt `.git`, missing directory, remote
authority, shared workspace, running export generation. `priorWorkspace`
is omitted for the unsafe writer and shared cases.
- `workspace-preparation.test.ts`:
- A `reuse_issue_workspace` Retry prepares in the original worktree with
its uncommitted file and branch.
- RC-35 red/green: re-preparing the same fresh attempt reuses its bound
directory and keeps files written before the restart. Another run still
gets `isolated_task_directory_binding_mismatch`.
- The fresh fallback sets `priorWorkspace` with the old path and
`unpublished.txt`.
- `environment-selection.test.ts`: the new mode pins the binding and
rejects a changed binding or cwd.
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts`: the prompt names
the retained directory and its files.
- Regression files run locally: `workspace-preparation`,
`environment-selection`, `task-retry`, `quarantined-task-retry`,
`explicit-native-continuation`, `workspace-recovery`.
- Restart-chaos (`tests/restart-chaos`, local, B1+B5, codex+claude,
K1/K4/K6, concurrency 2, rc06-masked):
- Final head: wave `w-20261107T014633-s7206` on `c6776283f3`: 8/8 PASS,
all 8 restart-crossing. 5 tasks needed a Retry (t03-t07: codex B1 K6,
codex B1 K1, codex B5 K6, codex B5 K1, claude B5 K6). All five finished
in the original git worktree with `.git` and every pre-fault file
present (`workspaceMovedTo` empty, `lostFiles` empty); no "Retry keeps a
fresh attempt" log line.
- Wave `w-20261107T004829-s7205` on `29373a6b6a`: 8/8 PASS, all 8
restart-crossing. 3 tasks needed a Retry (t02, t06, t07). All three
finished in the original git worktree with `.git` and every pre-fault
file present; no "Retry keeps a fresh attempt" log line. (`cc178492ef`
only makes the operation filter stricter for run-less jobs.)
- Wave `w-20261107T000412-s7204` on `d197082107`: 8/8 PASS, 7
restart-crossing. 3 tasks needed a Retry (t02, t04, t06). All three
finished in the original git worktree (`workspaceMovedTo` is empty), R2
passed with `.git` and every pre-fault file present, and no "Retry keeps
a fresh attempt" log line appeared.
- Wave `w-20261106T231416-s7203` on the first commit: 6/6 PASS, but its
t01 Retry still moved to `isolated-workspace-attempts`. That instance
was not kept, so the exact rejection was not recorded. The likely cause
is a `running` workspace operation that a killed server left on the
stopped source (the source restarted three times). The second commit
treats such restart orphans as not live and logs the rejection reason. A
`--replay` of that t01 on `d197082107` finished in the original worktree
with its `.git` file and no attempt directory.
- Review follow-ups in `d197082107`, `29373a6b6a`, `cc178492ef` and
`c6776283f3` (run-less workspace jobs still block reuse; red/green
covered by the `running_operation` case): holds are grouped by source
run; the readiness fallback (blocked recovery without a generation) also
reuses the task workspace; Git probes go through the shared scan
scheduler with 10-15 s deadlines; `priorWorkspace` is only set for a
task-owned directory with no other writer; the reuse rejection reason is
logged; `priorWorkspace` uses the same task-owned, settled,
single-writer predicate as reuse; Git probes share one budget per
workspace; the RC-35 check is a pure path check; renames are parsed from
either porcelain column.

## Risks

- A Retry now writes into the old directory instead of a new one. The
checks above prevent a second writer. A stale binding fails the run with
`retry_workspace_binding_mismatch`; it does not write to another
directory.
- If the cause of the failure was inside the workspace itself, reuse
could repeat it. Workspace-export failures, restore failures and
required workspace recovery keep the fresh attempt.
- A workspace operation of the stopped source that started before the
source settled and before the current server process no longer blocks
reuse (a restart orphan). Operations with no run, of another run, or
started in the current process still block it.
- `priorWorkspace` is an optional new field in the continuation
envelope. Older adapters ignore it.

DottaandPaperclip d5c4f7dd02 fix: preserve shared Git sources during online workspace migration (#19688)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip preserves the work produced by its agents.
> - Remote workspace migration must preserve legacy Git history and
local edits.
> - Linked checkouts can share administration and objects with other
tasks.
> - A task lock alone cannot exclude writers of a shared or borrowed
store.
> - The online source owner must derive and retain the full physical
ownership closure.
> - This change reuses task, project, lifecycle and finalizer locks for
that closure.
> - Idle legacy Git work can then migrate while unrelated remote turns
continue.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #19642.

**What happened?**

Online migration keeps legacy Git sources blocked because several task
checkouts can share a project base or a private Git cache. A read-only
source observation found 160 pending Git records, 120 distinct paths and
nine common stores. Its largest project cohort contained 126 records and
110 task owners. An ordinary-directory fence cannot preserve these
sources by itself.

**Expected behavior**

Derive the physical source owners from stable Git metadata. Hold their
existing source and lifecycle keys through publication. Retain all
history and recovery obligations. Reject foreign aliases, unknown stores
and changed sources. Let unrelated object-backed work continue.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a managed project checkout and linked task worktrees.
2. Keep a settled prepared recovery source on a sibling task.
3. Keep unrelated remote work running.
4. Request an online import of an idle leaf checkout.
5. The existing owner keeps the shared source blocked.

**Paperclip version or commit**

This branch builds on merged #19642 (`7ac99718a4`) and fresh master
`fb3cf1a072`. It adds the Git closure. It does not add a writers-stopped
shortcut.

**Deployment mode**

Hosted native Runner with remote workspace storage. Local qualification
uses owned synthetic Git repositories, disposable PostgreSQL databases
and the actual archive and storage owners.

## What Changed

- Read bounded stable Git pointers, common-directory metadata and local
alternates. Derive the complete physical source ownership cohort.
Preserve all object stores.
- Retain common and borrowed store owners in preparation, lifecycle,
runtime, expiration and actual reopen paths. Keep company boundaries and
the existing 128-key bound.
- Hold exact sibling native recovery proofs under their existing
physical finalizer keys. Recheck descriptors, allocations, recovery
actions and source identities before capture and publication. Preserve
original states and warnings.
- Require leaf-first nested imports. Reuse the existing immutable child
download, restore and source comparison before parent exclusion.
- Bind the self-contained archive owner to the held Git namespaces. Keep
its three walks, history normalization, fsck, bytes and digest format.
Reject bare, detached, network, unknown or changed Git storage.
- Check both foreign path fields. Keep foreign metadata private.
Document the proof, bounds, source observation and remaining eligibility
limits.

## Verification

- Final revision `2934e41c923b93e16508b978c849b747c86be645`: all checks
are terminal, with 56 successful and four skipped, zero failures and
zero pending. The [required CI
aggregate](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42326464408/job/128266279210)
passed. Build, types, all server/Runner/serialized suites, end-to-end
aggregate and Snyk passed. [Fresh exact-head Greptile
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19688#issuecomment-6699760104)
is 5/5 with no open threads. GitHub reports MERGEABLE and CLEAN.

- Review then found two correctness gaps: an ordinary managed directory
inside an unrelated host repository was blocked, and a Git parent could
miss a completed nested operation after its child snapshot became
missing or deleted. Three actual-owner regressions reproduced both gaps
in 9.70 seconds. The corrected owner passes 12 focused cases in 17.08
seconds. It imports and restores only the ordinary root bytes, preserves
the outer repository, rejects both missing/deleted child receipts before
a parent journal, and retains valid/changed child coverage and
private-cache contention. Its wrapper exited 0 and cleanup completed.
The first bootstrap attempt failed before tests ran because the host
exhausted its 32 shared-memory segment limit; no shared services were
stopped and no pass is claimed for that attempt. The final qualified
source/test type graph, module boundaries and diff checks pass.
- Receipt scans keep canonical path resolution. A lexical SQL prefix can
omit children reached through symlinked ancestors. The observed full
metadata closure completed in 1.17 seconds; no measured bottleneck
justifies weakening that alias proof. Writer admission still rejects
uncertain Git ownership before mutation. Expiration returns its typed
skip, and reopen returns its structured failure. Runtime and lifecycle
do not bypass an unknown source. No broad error-contract change was
added.

- Full CI at `720104ea975e` exposed five existing boundary cases across
three server shards. Four exact cases reproduced locally as failures in
25.98 seconds. Reopen now preserves its structured failure when source
inspection rejects the path, without reconstructing it. Runtime
recognizes only the exact regular ignore-only `.git/info/exclude`
fragment; migration still rejects that fragment. The original
arbitrary-path and file-URL import/delete-host/resume fixtures keep both
supported input forms and use the genuine offline setup path after their
sole writer finishes. The production mode gate is unchanged. A new
real-owner control proves the offline flag still rejects a running
legacy database writer.
- The final focused run passed all ten cases across four suites in 22.75
seconds, including all five CI failures, invalid-pointer admission,
fragment rejection, offline writer exclusion and actual nested reopen
lock ordering. Its wrapper exited 0 and cleanup completed. The known
invalid-pointer case remains fail-closed; the separate unexpected-I/O
diagnostic retains safe error metadata without command text or
credentials. Existing Git stderr redaction coverage remains intact. The
final metadata reader suite passed 20 cases in 2.68 seconds. The
qualified server/test source type graph, module boundaries and diff
checks pass. No production assertions or timeout defaults were weakened.
Fresh CI and review are required for the repair revision.

- A later review found that the ordinary early return still used only
one foreign path field. The actual ordinary providerRef-only regression
failed as incorrectly eligible. One source-path owner now enumerates
both local locators for company/foreign ordinary and Git scans, layout
checks, early admission, lifecycle/reopen/runtime and
expiration/move/preparation retention. Capture and display keep their
original preferred path. The actual owner canary passed 49 cases across
two suites in 109.15 seconds. It covers
cwd-only/ref-only/different/symlink locators, same-company mismatches,
foreign owners, lifecycle ordering, Git/recovery imports and
expiration/reopen. Three selected-locator fallback cases also failed
before their guard; the final eight-case control passed in 31.05
seconds, including the configured alias and valid import/private-child
controls. All wrappers exited 0 and completed cleanup. The
metadata/locator suite passed 19 cases. The final source/test type
graph, module boundaries and diff checks pass.

- Review found two P1 gaps. Both configured-directory symlink cases
failed before canonicalization. The actual parent import lost an
already-imported child's unique private cache and failed its archive
fence instead of retaining that owner. The corrected real-owner canary
passed four cases in 20.78 seconds: configured symlink runtime
provisioning, private-cache contention before the parent journal,
successful parent publication after release, and unchanged/changed child
coverage. The metadata suite passed 15 cases in 4.14 seconds. Both
wrappers exited 0 and cleanup completed.
- A fresh source read-only observation found 160 pending Git records and
nine common stores. An additional exact receipt query found 1,243
completed migration receipts and 557 nested source paths under pending
Git roots. All 126 records in the largest project were present in the
captured Git metadata set. For all 110 present candidate workspace
records, the derived closure fits the unchanged 128-key cap. The worst
case needs 110 issue keys and one project key, with 17 keys of headroom.
Its 173 imported children introduce no physical issue owner outside
those 110 logical task owners. This checks the observed key bound only.
It does not claim migration eligibility or a coherent snapshot.
- The initial stacked CI did not run four Runner test lanes: trusted
master passed new --package-lane/--native-server options to the old base
lane script. The branch is now rebased onto actual merged master and
retargeted before synchronization. It includes the canonical current
lane parser without an unrelated Runner patch. Fresh new-head CI is
required.

- The actual importer/source owner run passed 36 cases across three
suites in 187.75 seconds. It covers sibling prepared recovery, unrelated
running remote work, common-cache contention, changed
coordinator/allocation/path state during upload, exact nested coverage,
dirty unpushed work, and existing expiration/reopen owners. Wrapper exit
0 and cleanup completed.
- A separate previously hanging lifecycle-worker restore passed in 17.33
seconds with the unchanged 15-second test-body limit. An earlier run
timed out in three expiration/reopen cases and blocked cleanup; its
wrapper later exited 1. These failures remain recorded. They are not
counted as passes.
- Two boundary controls first failed: a foreign providerRef-only alias
was incorrectly eligible, and actual reopen did not admit its distinct
cache owner at the initial source boundary. The narrow guards now
inspect both foreign locators and derive physical Git keys before the
raw lifecycle transaction. The foreign alias and existing real nested
reopen contention passed. The private-cache control first retained
contradictory recorded source provenance and stayed fail-closed after
release. The corrected present legacy-worktree fixture passed in 12.61
seconds. These failed attempts remain recorded; they are not passes.
- The metadata reader and serialized/local archive controls use actual
Git repositories. They compare archive bytes and digests, remove every
original source, restore staged and unstaged work, and run fsck. The
metadata reader passed 13 cases in 2.85 seconds. The local/serialized
archive controls passed nine cases in 9.27 seconds. All processes exited
0. An additional actual importer control changed a relative commondir
pointer to the absolute name of the same store during upload.
Publication was rejected, the uploaded journal remained available, and
original files stayed intact (one case, 5.86 seconds; wrapper exit 0 and
cleanup complete).
- The final rebased full local server/test type graph passes with
db/shared/Runner source aliases because reused dependency declarations
predate new master exports. The first rebased attempt reported those
stale declaration fields/tables, and is not counted as a pass. Module
boundaries and diff checks pass. Standard package builds, types and
broad regression checks remain required in CI.
- No hosted import, admission hold, cancellation, provider mutation,
source filesystem write or shared-cache Git command was performed for
this change. The source observation is read-only and is not a locked
eligibility proof.

## Risks

- A missing writer owner could make physical source exclusion
incomplete. Existing mutation owners retain the same
company/task/project keys, and uncertain metadata fails closed.
- A project can contain a large cohort. Limits remain finite. A bound
failure keeps the source blocked.
- Bare, detached, unowned or network Git stores remain blocked online.
Missing archived sources retain their existing authenticated
reconstruction path.
- Exact recovery proofs preserve authority and obligations. They do not
infer provider termination or mark a prepared descriptor finalized.
- This change does not claim all observed Git records are immediately
eligible. Existing preparation, provider, recovery, runtime and
source-change blockers remain.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 a894b11a2b fix(runner): retry a rejected runner suspension and log every cleanup quarantine (#19653)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A native run's close must prove that its runner durably suspended
before the session's next run may start. If it cannot, the runtime
quarantines the session (`NativeSessionCloseUnrecoverableError`)
> - In a restart chaos storm, an ACPX Claude run succeeded and its
normal close quarantined its own session. The follow-up run on that
session failed 2 s later with `native_session_cleanup_quarantined`, and
no control-plane restart came between the two runs
> - The close sent `runner.suspend` once, the ACPX sidecar rejected it
right after the turn completed, and the barrier gave up at the first
rejected command. No log line showed the quarantine or its cause
> - This pull request retries a rejected suspension within the close
deadline, and logs every cleanup quarantine with its cause when it is
created
> - The benefit is that a successful run no longer blocks its own
follow-up because of a one-time suspension rejection, and any remaining
quarantine can be traced

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
Run A (ACPX Claude) succeeded. The run log of its close shows:
- `runner did not prove durable suspension before checkpoint`
- `native_session_settlement_incomplete
{"runnerSuspended":false,"providerDrained":true,"suspensionState":{"commandStatus":"failed","runnerLifecycle":"suspended",...},"semanticTools":{"pending":[]},"finalProviderState":{"activeProviderTurnId":null,"providerSettled":true}}`

The runner journal shows `runner.drain` completed, then `runner.suspend`
failed with `failed to suspend ACPX provider: ACPX sidecar command
session.suspend was rejected (retryable=false,
classification=unclassified)`. The follow-up run B on the same session
was created 200 ms after A finished and failed 2 s later at admission
(`retryQuarantinedSessionCleanups`, operator recovery branch). The
server log had no line for the quarantine. One Retry completed the task.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run an ACPX task whose sidecar rejects the first `session.suspend`
after the turn completes.
2. Start a follow-up run on the same session.

**Expected behavior**
The close asks again, proves suspension, and the follow-up runs. If a
quarantine is still needed, it is logged with its cause.

**Actual behavior**
The close fails on the first rejection, quarantines the session, and the
follow-up fails with no logged cause.

## What Changed

- `runner/.../durable/runner.rs` (`process_command`): a failed
`runner.suspend`, on first execution or replay, now keeps the runner in
`Continue` instead of `Suspend`. Before, the runner recorded `suspended`
over a provider whose session was still open, then exited. The RC-34
journal shows exactly that: runner lifecycle `suspended`, ACPX provider
`session_open`. A failed `runner.shutdown` still stops the runner.
- `durable-prp-control-plane.ts`: a failed or rejected `runner.suspend`
now lifts the connection's terminal-lifecycle fence, so the next pending
command (the fresh suspend) is delivered on the same connection.
Completed suspensions and every shutdown keep the fence. New test:
"delivers a fresh suspension after a rejected one on the same
connection". Before the fix, the retry was never sent and the test timed
out waiting for the frame.
- `runnerd-codex-transport.ts` (`awaitRunnerSuspensionBarrier`): after a
rejected `runner.suspend`, the barrier sends a fresh suspend command, up
to 3 attempts, 250 ms apart, inside the same close deadline. An exited
runner or a spent budget still fails closed. A rejection changes no
state: the runner returns before it records suspension.
- `native-session-runtime.ts`: new
`onNativeSessionCleanupQuarantined(listener)`. It is called when a
cleanup quarantine is created or escalates to operator recovery, with
company, run, issue, session, `operatorRecoveryRequired`, a bounded
cause (error name, code, message) and bounded settlement facts.
- `server`: `logNativeCleanupQuarantines` logs each quarantine as a
warning. The subscription is process-wide and installed once, so closes
that fail during shutdown, after HTTP closes, are still logged.

## Verification

- Red before the change: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner
exec vitest run src/live/runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts -t "rejected
suspension"`.
  - "retries a rejected suspension…" got `false`.
  - "stops retrying…" saw 1 attempt instead of 3.
- Green after the change: both pass.
- Rust: new test
`rejected_suspend_keeps_the_runner_serving_its_controller` covers a
failed suspend, its replay, and an accepted retry with a fresh command.
`failed_lifecycle_commands_replay_their_terminal_transition` now expects
`Continue` for suspend and `Shutdown` for shutdown. The `pnpm run
check:runner` unit suites pass (559). `acpx_park_readiness` has two
timing tests (`< 500ms`) that fail at this host load on unchanged master
as well.
- New runtime test: "announces every cleanup quarantine with its cause
when it is created" (operator-required quarantine, cause and settlement
reported once). `src/native-session-runtime.test.ts` passes (212).
- The suspension cases in `runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts` pass, except
"proves local suspension after an event backlog… (1024 suffix deltas)".
That case also times out on unchanged master at this host load (27–35);
I confirmed this by stashing the change and rerunning.
- Server `tsc --noEmit` passes after the runner package build.

## Risks

- A provider that keeps rejecting suspension now gets three tries
instead of one, within the existing close deadline. The final outcome
and quarantine are unchanged.
- The cause of the ACPX sidecar's first rejection is not proven. The
logged evidence fits the sidecar's "not at a safe suspension point"
guard (`turnId`, tools or inputs still set) racing the just-completed
turn. This change makes close tolerate it. It does not change the
sidecar.
- Log volume: one warning per quarantine.
- The Rust change ships in the runner binary. Hosted images need a
rebuild to pick it up.
- After a failed suspend, the runner stays alive with its provider. If
every retry fails, close still treats suspension as unproven and kills
the owned runner process, exactly as before.

## Model Used

execution in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 30857db55e fix(native): recover a run killed between runner launch and its identity record (#19694)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs start a local `paperclip-runnerd` process. The server
records the request to start it, then records its process identity after
it spawns.
> - If the server is killed between those two records, there is no
process ID to check after the restart
> - Restart recovery then restarted the bootstrap, but the executor
failed with `durable_identity_unreadable` because the runner never wrote
its state
> - The user's Retry then waited forever with "Retry is waiting for
Paperclip to verify that the previous execution stopped", because the
stop check needs a process ID
> - This pull request restarts that bootstrap and proves on the host
that no runner for the run exists
> - The benefit is that a restart in the runner launch window no longer
loses the task or leaves Retry permanently stuck

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In restart-chaos testing, an ACPX Claude run was created and the server
was SIGKILLed 1.3 s later, right after `native.process_start_requested`
and before the runner identity was recorded. On restart, recovery
claimed `bootstrap_incomplete` (`dead_runner_before_provider_identity`).
The executor then threw `runner_state_identity_mismatch:
durable_identity_unreadable`: the state root existed, but
`control-plane/control-plane-state.json` had never been written. The run
failed with `native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`. A Retry was
accepted (HTTP 200), but no run was ever created. The issue stayed
blocked with `retryWait.reason=process_identity_missing` for over 20
minutes and through another restart.

**Expected behavior**
When the runner never wrote state, no provider started, so the bootstrap
can start again. A Retry should be admitted once the host proves that no
runner for the run exists.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at `fb3cf1a072`.

**Steps to reproduce**
Create a native local task and SIGKILL the server about 1 s after the
run starts, after the runner launch is requested and before its identity
is recorded. Restart the server, then click Retry.

## What Changed

- `migrateRunnerdStateRootForExecution` (`native-session-executor.ts`):
for a `bootstrap_incomplete` restart on a local target, a root is
quarantined (kept for inspection) and the bootstrap starts again only
when both of these hold:
  - the root has no `control-plane-state.json`;
  - no live runner for the run exists on this host.

A state file that exists but cannot be read, or a runner that started
but has not connected yet, still fails closed with
`durable_identity_unreadable`.
- `unidentifiedLocalRunnerProvenAbsent` (`native-session-executor.ts`)
proves that a runner is absent when both of these hold:
- no host process carries the run's `--run-id <runId>` argument
(`paperclip-runnerd` is always started with it, detached and
unreferenced);
- no saved control-plane state for this run exists, in the canonical
root or in quarantine.

A provider starts only after its runner connects and writes that state.
- `native.process_start_requested` now records the launching `hostname`.
- `recordUnidentifiedLocalRunnerStop` (`native-local-process-stop.ts`)
applies the proof only when all of these hold:
  - the run is native;
  - the run has no process ID;
- its latest launch event is `native.process_start_requested`, from this
host;
  - all of its leases are local.

  A launch recorded without a host stays blocked.
- The process listing runs asynchronously with a 5 s deadline. A failed
or slow listing proves nothing.

It then writes `native.local_process_stopped` with null process IDs and
`basis: "unidentified_runner_absent"`. A later launch request
invalidates it as usual.
- The continuation and Retry gate (`explicit-native-continuation.ts`)
uses this proof before returning `process_identity_missing`. A dry run
checks the proof but records nothing.
- `doc/run-log-events.md` documents the new receipt basis.

## Verification

- `native-session-executor.test.ts`:
- The bootstrap restart with absent state was red before the fix
(`durable_identity_unreadable`) and is green after it (root quarantined,
backend admitted).
- Unreadable state, and a live runner that has not connected, still
reject.
- Proof cases: absent → true; a live process with `--run-id <runId>` →
false; this run's saved state → false; another run ID → false.
- `explicit-native-continuation.test.ts` (embedded Postgres, real
admission):
- The `absent` and `dry_run` cases were red before the fix (blocked) and
are green after it (admitted). Only the real admission records the
receipt.
- The `live_runner`, `saved_state`, `foreign_host` and `unbound_launch`
cases stay blocked.
- Broader local run after the review fixes:
`explicit-native-continuation`, `native-session-executor`,
`native-recovered-owner-followup`,
`native-runner-restart-recovery.integration` and `task-retry` gave 1836
passed, 0 failed.
- A chaos replay of the original task (`--replay
w-20261106T232854-s7103/t26`) passed (R1 PASS). Its kill landed after
the runner identity was recorded (`resume_dead_runner`), not in the
launch window, so the tests above are what reproduce that window.
- `tsc --noEmit` for `server` passes.

## Risks

- The proof depends on `ps -axww` listing every process on the launching
host. If `ps` fails or times out, the proof fails closed (still
blocked). Remote runners and other hosts are excluded.
- A runner that was spawned but has not yet written its state could be
mid-start when admission runs. It would still carry `--run-id` in its
arguments, so the proof refuses.
- Only the bootstrap path with no state file changes. Ownership,
checkpoint and reattach checks are unchanged.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 aca908a165 fix(restart-chaos): stop the timeline echo loop when stdout breaks (#19695)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The restart chaos harness (`tests/restart-chaos/`) runs waves of
real agent tasks while it restarts the control plane on purpose
> - A wave writes a timeline file and also echoes every timeline entry
to stdout
> - When the process that reads that stdout exits, every echo fails with
EPIPE. The uncaught-exception handler then records the error with
another echo, so the loop never ends
> - In one Daytona wave this wrote 3.2 million entries (2.5 GB) in 30
minutes. It also stopped the wave from grading its tasks
> - This pull request stops the echo after the first stdout error, and
records the stdout loss once
> - The benefit is that a wave keeps running and grading when its log
reader goes away

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Bug description**
`Timeline.add` echoes with `console.info`. After stdout breaks, each
echo raises EPIPE as an uncaught exception. The handler in `main.ts`
calls `timeline.add("harness_uncaught_exception")`, and that call echoes
again.

**Steps to reproduce**
Run a wave as a child process that reads its stdout, for example from a
wave-loop script. Kill the parent while the wave runs. `timeline.jsonl`
then grows without bound with `harness_uncaught_exception` / `write
EPIPE` entries.

**Expected behavior**
The wave goes on writing its files (timeline, grades, ledger) and stops
writing to the broken stdout.

Refs #19544

## What Changed

- `tests/restart-chaos/timeline.ts`: a `process.stdout` error listener
and a guard around `console.info` turn off the echo for good after a
broken-pipe error. The timeline file is still written. On the first
entry after the echo stops, the timeline writes one
`harness_stdout_lost` entry (file only) with the error. The file adds
`isBrokenStdoutError` and `markTimelineEchoBroken`.
- `tests/restart-chaos/main.ts`: the uncaught-exception handler passes
broken-stdout errors to `markTimelineEchoBroken`. It does not mark the
wave as interrupted and does not set a harness error.
- `tests/restart-chaos/timeline.test.ts` (new): the error
classification, and the file-but-no-echo behaviour with exactly one
`harness_stdout_lost` entry.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run --config tests/restart-chaos/vitest.config.ts`:
102/102 pass.
- `node scripts/typecheck-test-projects.mjs tests/restart-chaos`: clean.
- Incident: wave `w-20261107T001552-s13`. Its timeline had 76 real
entries, then 3,242,762 `harness_uncaught_exception` entries. Those 3.2
million entries came from the loop this pull request removes.

## Risks

- This change touches the test harness only.
- After stdout breaks, the console shows no wave progress, but every
result is still in the wave's files. A different uncaught exception
still stops the wave as before.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 803cb3bfe3 fix(native): re-bootstrap an OpenCode runner drained before its first turn (#19704)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs start a local `paperclip-runnerd`. After a restart,
recovery may start the bootstrap again when the durable state root
proves that no provider work started.
> - #19665 added a proof for a graceful drain that lands after
`session.open` started a fresh session and before the first turn. It
requires every recorded provider process to have exited.
> - OpenCode records provider startup ownership twice during
`session.open`. The first record comes before launch, with `processId:
null` and `processGroupId: null`.
> - The proof treated `processId: null` as a process it could not prove
gone. An OpenCode run drained in this window still failed with
`runner_state_identity_mismatch: bootstrap_not_proven_incomplete`.
> - This pull request treats a null process id as "no process yet". The
benefit is that a graceful restart during OpenCode bootstrap continues
automatically, as it already does for ACPX.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19665, #19524

**What happened?**
A restart chaos wave sent SIGTERM to the control plane about 11 s after
an OpenCode run started. The drain suspended the run. At the next boot,
recovery verified that the local runner had stopped and chose
`bootstrap_incomplete`. The executor then failed the run with
`adapter_failed` and `runner_state_identity_mismatch:
bootstrap_not_proven_incomplete`. The kept state root had:
- `run.prepare` and `session.open` completed, with a freshly started
session (`status: "started"`);
- only `session.started`, `session.capabilities.updated` and
`session.goal.snapshot` committed;
- two `harness.diagnostic` events of type `provider_startup_ownership`
in the runner outbox, the first with null process ids and the second
with the server pid and process group;
- no turn command, and the OpenCode server process had exited.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start an OpenCode task on a local runner.
2. Send SIGTERM to the control plane after `session.open` completes and
before the first turn.
3. Let the control plane restart.

**Expected behavior**
Recovery starts the bootstrap again, and the task continues.

**Actual behavior**
The run fails. The task needs a manual Retry.

## What Changed

- `native-bootstrap-proof.ts`: the process-id collector skips
`processId`, `pid` and `processGroupId` values that are `null`. A null
value records a launch that has not produced a process yet. Any other
non-number value still fails the proof, and every numeric id must still
be proven gone.
- Tests: a red test with the OpenCode startup-ownership shape, plus
counter-tests for a live OpenCode server process, a non-numeric process
id, and a started turn.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: "allows a fresh bootstrap after a drain once
OpenCode opened its session before the first turn" failed with `expected
false to be true`. Green after the fix: the `native incomplete-bootstrap
evidence` block passes 36/36.
- I ran the proof read-only against kept real roots:
  - the OpenCode drained root now returns `true`;
- an OpenCode root from the same wave where a turn ran (108 events)
still returns `false`;
  - the three roots from #19524 and #19665 still return `true`.
- `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts` and
`native-restart-recovery.test.ts`: 134 passed. `tsc --noEmit -p
server/tsconfig.json` passes.
- Live replay: see the PR comment.

## Risks

- Low. The change only skips null ids. Numeric ids still need a proven
exit. Any turn, provider output, resumed session, or remote runner still
fails closed.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 1aa0c36397 Fix execution after onboarding plan approval (#19698)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their work.
> - First-task onboarding turns a user's goal into an approved proposal.
> - The interview offers a plan and a team to carry out that plan.
> - The instructions leave execution after acceptance unclear.
> - An agent can add a plan-only approval boundary and finish without
doing the requested work.
> - This change makes the approval scope explicit and tests both
execution and plan-only outcomes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An onboarding agent can treat an interview about building a product as a
request for a plan only. It can then retain the approved plan and close
onboarding without creating execution tasks. The interview evaluation
previously accepted that result.

**Expected behavior**

Acceptance of an execution proposal starts its selected work. An
explicit plan-only request stops after planning. User-requested separate
approvals and existing permission and budget controls still apply.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Choose the onboarding interview and describe a deliverable.
2. Accept the saved plan proposal.
3. Check that the agent starts the approved work instead of closing with
only a plan.

## What Changed

- Clarify execution intent, approval wording, continuation, and
completion in the first-task prompt.
- Require assigned child work and saved output in the interview
acceptance evaluation. Use checkbox acceptance in the regular interview
journey and retain conversational acceptance in the approval-reply
suite.
- Add an explicit plan-only acceptance journey and nine grader
regression checks.
- Update evaluation counts, grading versions, and onboarding
verification guidance.

## Verification

- Passed: all applicable CI checks on `198a6b47cac7`, including
typechecks, the general and serialized server tests, Runner checks,
build, and browser E2E shards. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42324855376).
- Passed locally: the full Runner support suite, 6,860 tests across 323
files (three skipped), plus 13 onboarding asset tests.
- Passed locally: the full workspace build, workspace package typechecks
(server rechecked after restoring excluded-plugin SDK links), and the
Runner evaluation TypeScript check.
- Passed: map validation and whitespace checks.
- Initial broad local checks failed during checkout preparation because
PostgreSQL library symlinks and runtime/SDK assets were missing.
Restoring the dependency setup made the affected controls pass. The full
root test suite passed in CI; it was not rerun locally after that
repair.
- Live model journeys have not been run. Grader tests do not prove model
compliance.

## Risks

- Prompt behavior needs live qualification across providers. This change
adds no server-side enforcement or permission bypass.
- The new plan-only case adds four local evaluation cells. A full
campaign now has 56 first-task cells.
- Existing proposals that reserve later approval keep that restriction.
This change does not rewrite tenant data or start existing onboarding
tasks.
- No schema migration or deployment is included.

## Model Used

- OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol`, xhigh reasoning effort, with repository tools
and local test execution. Context window size is not exposed by this
session.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 c37bc749ac fix(native): keep restart continuations alive through early results and repeat restarts (#19699)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs continue a turn lost to a control-plane restart once, in
the same conversation (#15297, #19501)
> - In restart storm 3, two Codex runs each crossed one restart and

> - A restart should not cost a click when continuing is safe, and a
failure should name its real cause
> - This pull request fixes the start race, reports the driver's own
failure, and gives each admitted restart its own continuation
> - The benefit is that interrupted tasks finish without a Retry, within
the existing recovery budget

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19501, #15297, #19658, #19539

**What happened?**

Restart storm 3 (seed 7103, RC06 mask on, load 9–12). Codex B5 Retry
runs crossed one K1 restart mid-turn. After the restart, recovery
resumed the dead runner. The runner restored the conversation and
recorded `turn.failed` with `provider_turn_lost_on_restore`
(`recoverable: true`). The control plane started the same-conversation
continuation (`resumeInterruptedTurn` → `startTurn`). About 1 s later
the transport closed with `protocol_failure:turn_binding_mismatch`. The
run failed as `native_runner_process_exited: runnerd exited before
provider turn startup`. The task needed another Retry.

I reproduced it with the focused cell (`--workloads B5 --faults K1
--triggers retry`) and a temporary diagnostic. The failure is "Provider
semantic result did not name the active turn": a `paperclip/runResult`
reached the Codex driver while the continuation's `turn/start` was still
pending and no turn was bound. The driver waits for a pending start
before it handles `turn/completed`, but not before it handles
`paperclip/runResult`.

**Expected behavior**

After a restart that loses a turn, the run continues automatically when
that is safe. Each admitted restart attempt can continue once, within
the provider-attempt budget. A failure names its real cause.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run `node cli/node_modules/tsx/dist/cli.mjs
tests/restart-chaos/main.ts --env local --adapters codex --workloads B5
--faults K1 --triggers retry --tasks 2 --concurrency 2 --seed 4040
--rc06-masked`.
2. When a lost turn's continuation receives a semantic result before its
start settles, the run fails with `turn_binding_mismatch` and the task
needs a Retry. The race is intermittent: 1 of about 14 lost turns in my
runs.

**Root cause**

-
`packages/paperclip-runner/src/drivers/codex/codex-session-notifications.ts`:
the `paperclip/runResult` branch checked the active-turn binding without
waiting for `state.turnStartSettled`. The `turn/completed` branch
already waits.
- `codex-harness-session.ts` `startTurn`: the driver's own protocol
failure closed the transport. The pending start then reported the runner
exit, which hid the cause.
- `codex-session-terminal.ts` `mapTerminalTurn`: a consumed one-shot
marker blocked every later continuation in the run, even when the newly
lost turn was that continuation itself.

The one-continuation allowance is per run, not per issue or session
lineage: attaching a new run resets the marker. The storm runs did
attempt their continuation; the start race made it fail.

## What Changed

- Codex driver: a `paperclip/runResult` waits for a pending turn start
to settle before it is bound, like a terminal.
- Codex driver: when this session's own protocol failure ends a pending
turn start, `startTurn` throws `codex_turn_start_protocol_failure:
<code>: <message>` instead of the runner exit. CodexRpc errors and
protocol-integrity errors keep their own types. The server now
classifies this as `native_session_interrupted` instead of
`native_runner_process_exited`; both are retryable.
- A later restart that loses the continuation turn itself re-arms the
one-shot marker: the driver resets it as it was before the first
continuation. It does this when it maps the lost terminal, including
during recovery from a checkpoint taken while the continuation ran. The
checkpoint gate `nativeRestartInterruptedTurnId` stays strict: a
consumed marker still means the allowance is used. Each continuation
still needs an admitted dead-runner restart. The existing
provider-attempt budget bounds the repeats, and an exhausted budget
still blocks with Retry.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: an additive paragraph.

## Verification

Red before the fix, green after:

- `codex-app-server-driver.events.test.ts` "binds a semantic result that
arrives before its pending turn start settles". Red: `session.failed`.
Green: the result binds to `turn-1` and the turn completes.
- `codex-app-server-driver.events.test.ts` "names its own protocol
failure when that failure ends a pending turn start". Red: "runnerd
exited before provider turn startup". Green:
`codex_turn_start_protocol_failure: turn_binding_mismatch`.
- `codex-app-server-driver.recovery.test.ts` "offers another restart
continuation when a later restart loses the continuation turn itself".
Red: `null`. Green: `turn-2`. A checkpoint with a consumed marker still
returns `null`.
- `codex-app-server-driver.recovery.test.ts` "re-arms the continuation
when recovery finds the checkpointed continuation turn lost". This
recovers from a checkpoint taken during the continuation, then starts
the next continuation. Red without the re-arm (the marker stays
consumed); green with it.
- `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`: the same
checkpoint (continuation active, consumed marker naming it) is claimed
as `resume_dead_runner`. This is regression coverage.

Suites run locally on the final code:

- Runner: Codex driver, `native-session-runtime`,
`runnerd-restart-continuation` and contracts (745 tests).
- Server: `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`.
- `tsc` for the runner tests and the server.
- A few real-process tests timed out at about 6 s while six live agents
ran. Each passed when rerun alone. The settlement suite passed both with
and without this change at the same load.

Live (local, real Codex, macOS arm64), focused restart-chaos cell
`--adapters codex --workloads B5 --faults K1 --triggers retry,time
--tasks 6 --seed 4042 --rc06-masked`: 6/6 crossed a restart and passed.
R1 passed for all 6, so each continued without a Retry.

## Risks

- A run can now continue more than once in the same conversation, once
per admitted restart. Each continuation asks the agent to reconcile
unfinished actions before repeating them. The provider-attempt budget
still caps the repeats.
- A semantic result that arrives during a pending start now waits for
that start. If the start fails, the result is still rejected by the
existing binding check.
- The start race was intermittent (1 of about 14 lost turns), so the
live cell shows absence of the failure, not a forced repro. The driver
regression reproduces it deterministically.
- No schema, API or migration change.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`) in Claude Code, with
tool use, code execution, and extended reasoning.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 11c07c622c fix(native): restart a remote bootstrap retry that shutdown cut before runner launch (#19684)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native runs on Daytona start a `paperclip-runnerd` process in a
sandbox. Restart recovery decides what to do with each live or due run
after the control plane restarts.
> - #19616 added the `remote_runner_never_launched` proof. A claimed
remote run with no runner process request and no controller checkpoint
starts its bootstrap again.
> - A graceful shutdown closes the local runtime listener before its
drain. A remote run that is still starting then fails with
`local_runtime_api_listener_unavailable`. The executor settles it as a
same-run `bootstrap_retry` and releases its lease. #19596 treats this as
a restart detach only for local runners.
> - When the server restarted with that retry due, restart recovery
claimed the row. The proof accepted only rows that still held a lease,
so recovery blocked the task as ambiguous.
> - This pull request lets the same proof also admit that settled
`bootstrap_retry` row.
> - The benefit is that a graceful restart during Daytona startup
continues automatically.

ACPX Claude run on Daytona was starting. At 2 s after `stage.workspace`,
the run failed with `local_runtime_api_listener_unavailable`, and the
executor persisted "same-run resume persisted" with `recoveryMode:
bootstrap_retry`. After the restart, restart recovery returned
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence` with disposition `blocked`. The
task rested blocked.

Evidence in the saved database at that point:
- Coordinator `phase: retryable_failure`, `attempt: 1`,
`controllerGeneration: 1`, controller identity recorded, and no lease
owner.
- `failureDetail` recorded `recoveryMode: bootstrap_retry`,
`checkpointExists: false`, `providerEventsExist: false` and
`providerSessionEstablished: false`.
- The run had no runner checkpoint rows, no
`native.process_start_requested`, no process identity, and no
runner-sourced event. It also had no PID and no provider session.

**Expected behavior**

Restart recovery starts the bootstrap again, as it does for a claimed
run that holds a lease (#19616) and for a local run.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native run on a Daytona environment.
2. Send SIGTERM to the control plane after workspace staging and before
the runner is requested. The run settles as a same-run
`bootstrap_retry`.
3. Restart the control plane while that retry is due.
4. See that restart recovery blocks the task with
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

Root cause: in
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-restart-recovery.ts`, the
`remoteRunnerNeverLaunched` condition required `phase === "observed"`
and a lease owner. The settled `retryable_failure` / `bootstrap_retry`
row failed that check. The remote classifier then returned
`ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.

Refs #19616, #19596, #19583

## What Changed

- `native-restart-recovery.ts`: `remoteRunnerNeverLaunched` now accepts
one of two coordinator shapes:
  - an `observed` claim that holds a lease (unchanged);
- a `retryable_failure` with `recoveryMode: bootstrap_retry`, run status
`failed`, and no lease owner.
- All other proof conditions are unchanged. The run must still have no
process start, process identity, adapter, tool or runner-sourced event.
It must still have no process fields, no provider session, no provider
evidence and no checkpoint. The same three-attempt budget applies.
- An `exact_checkpoint_resume` retry keeps its own admission path.
- Admission: before claiming a settled retry, restart recovery applies
the same admission as the resumption reconciler
(`readNativeSessionResumptionAgent`): task pause hold, agent status,
dependencies, ownership, and competing runs. An ineligible retry is
deferred with `native_retry_admission_ineligible` and keeps waiting.
- `doc/run-log-events.md`: note the settled `bootstrap_retry` case.

## Verification

- Red, then green: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts
-t "bootstrap retry"`. Before the fix, the proven case and the budget
case returned `blocked` / `ambiguous_remote_recovery_evidence`.
- New cases: the proven case gets `bootstrap_incomplete`. The
coordinator returns to `observed`, `nextAttemptAt` is cleared, the run
returns to `running`, and no recovery action is created. A requested
process start or a committed runner event keeps the hold. A spent budget
blocks with `execution_recovery_budget_exhausted`. An
`exact_checkpoint_resume` retry does not take this path.
- Regression: `native-runner-restart-recovery.integration`,
`heartbeat/recovery`, `native-restart-recovery`,
`native-bootstrap-retry.integration` and
`native-remote-retry-admission`: 337 passed, 14 skipped.
- Admission: a paused agent's due `bootstrap_retry` is deferred with
`native_retry_admission_ineligible`. It is not started (red before the
follow-up commit, green after).
- Live Daytona replay of `w-20261106T234719-s12/t02`, 3 runs, ACPX
Claude B1, using the recorded K4, K2 and K1 sequence. Image: the wave's
own `paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:2767e91c…`, with runner inputs
pinned to its revision e482f0f632 locally. The replays ran the first
commit of this PR.
- Runs 1 and 3 passed R1. Run 2 passed R3: one Retry worked on the first
click.
- Runs 1 and 2 failed R6 because the wave-end sweep found a run lease
still in `pending_cleanup`. In run 1 the environment delete also timed
out. These failures are not in this change's path.
- The restarts landed in other startup windows, so none hit this exact
`bootstrap_retry` state. The integration tests cover that state with the
same evidence as the saved failing database.
- Run 2 also exposed a separate gap. A graceful drain that suspended a
remote run after the runner launched (`awaiting_runner_reattach`) was
blocked as ambiguous on the next boot. The Retry recovered it. That case
is outside this PR.

## Risks

- The proof still depends on the executor writing
`native.process_start_requested` before a backend may spawn a runner.
The fail-closed tests pin that gate.
- Restart recovery and the same-run resumption reconciler can both see a
due row. Both claim with a conditional update on phase and attempt, so
only one can win.

tool use (shell, file edits, GitHub CLI) and extended reasoning.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 d26372dc8a test(restart-chaos): add a result trigger and recovered-run comment-wake guards (#19689)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The restart chaos harness kills the control plane at chosen moments
and grades whether each task still finishes correctly
> - One wave lost a user's follow-up comment after a kill that landed
after the run accepted its result but before the run settled
> - No existing trigger aims a fault at that moment, so the case was
hard to reproduce on purpose
> - The recovery path that settles such a run had no regression test
that covers the saved comment
> - This pull request adds a `result` trigger to the harness and a
regression test for the recovery path
> - The benefit is that the harness can aim faults at the
result-accepted window, and a change that drops, repeats, or re-wakes a
saved comment fails a test

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In a restart-chaos storm wave, a user posted a comment while a native
run was active. A hard kill (K1) landed after the run accepted its
result and before the run settled. The run settled `succeeded` and the
task stayed `done`, but no follow-up run read the comment.

**Steps to reproduce**
The original failure did not reproduce. Three targeted waves ran 12
tasks with K1 at comment time or in the new result window. Every
follow-up comment was consumed exactly once. The new regression test
also passes on current `master`. The test and the trigger guard the path
and do not claim a fix.

**Expected behavior**
A comment posted during a run is consumed exactly once after the run
ends, including when restart recovery settles the run.

## What Changed

- `tests/restart-chaos`: add `--triggers result` (C1 only). K1 fires 0–3
s after the run that received the follow-up proposes or accepts its
result (`run.result.proposed` or `run.result.accepted`). The fault fires
only while that run is still `running`: the observer checks the latest
sample and rereads the runs right before dispatch. A run that settled
during the delay, or a follow-up posted at rest, records a `result`
miss. Add poll-driven unit tests for these cases and a README row.
- `server/src/__tests__/native-run-projection-work.test.ts`: add
embedded Postgres tests in which background recovery, not the executor,
settles the run (projection, environment settlement, and
deferred-receipt workers), with a deferred user comment and an active
local lease left by the killed executor. The tests check:
- The comment is promoted into exactly one follow-up run, and a second
restart adds none.
- A comment the run already received as a same-turn steer is not woken
again. The other saved comment still is.
- A queue whose only comment was steered stays cancelled, and no
follow-up starts.
- A Retry click does not consume the comment a second time. A click that
observed the source is stale. A click that observed the follow-up joins
it.

## Verification

- `cd tests/restart-chaos && npx vitest run --config vitest.config.ts`
(96 tests pass)
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/native-run-projection-work.test.ts` (54 tests pass)
- Live, local, ACPX Claude, Codex and OpenCode: `node
cli/node_modules/tsx/dist/cli.mjs tests/restart-chaos/main.ts --env
local --workloads C1 --triggers comment --faults K1 --adapters
codex,claude,opencode --tasks 4 --concurrency 2 --rc06-masked` passed 4
of 4. Two waves with `--triggers result` consumed each follow-up exactly
once. One task in those waves found a separate defect: a kill 1.4 s
after the result commit left the run `running` behind the dead
controller's 20-minute finalization lease. A separate pull request fixes
that defect.

## Risks

- Low risk. These are test and harness changes only. No production code
changes.
- The `result` trigger depends on the observer's poll interval (about 3
s), so the exact kill point within the window varies.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, run as an agent in
Claude Code with tool use (shell, file editing, local test execution).

DottaandPaperclip 5e4d24b6c8 fix(recovery): preserve admitted workspace on native restart (#19693)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - A Retry can admit a new workspace before native provider work
starts.
> - The native execution input records that admitted workspace.
> - A server restart must recover the same run under that recorded
contract.
> - Retry readiness previously evaluated fresh admission again after the
run had started.
> - This could replace the workspace and make the retained lease fail
its correct identity checks.
> - This change keeps the admitted workspace and leaves reattachment
authority with the existing lease and controller checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native run started by Retry could do useful work, then fail after a
server restart. Preparation evaluated the original fresh-workspace
receipt again. It reserved a replacement workspace under the Retry
intent ID. The existing runner still owned the original workspace, so
setup failed with `native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch`.

**Expected behavior**

Restart recovery must retain the workspace recorded in the same run's
native execution input. A later configuration or admission decision must
not replace it.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Admit a remote workspace for a Retry run.
2. Persist its native execution input and keep its original controller
and environment lease records.
3. Recover the same run while its canonical Retry receipt selects fresh
admission.
4. Preparation must reach the original lease with the original
workspace.

Related: #19340 preserves verified Retry workspaces. This change handles
an already admitted native run instead of selecting a workspace for a
new turn. Public duplicate searches for admitted/fresh workspace restart
found no matching repair.

## What Changed

- Stop fresh admission when a parsed native input names a real workspace
in the run's company.
- Validate the company, run, agent, and task binding before using that
input.
- Keep synthetic run-ID bootstraps on the existing admission path. Hold
missing real bindings.
- Test both recovery-action and ordinary user-Retry receipts against
real workspace, controller, and lease rows. Check malformed, foreign,
missing and opaque bindings, synthetic bootstrap behavior, and no-files
API controllers.
- Align the resume-owner fixture with the real transient run-ID binding.
Give each invocation a unique issue label so a CI test retry cannot mask
the original failure.

## Verification

- RED on unchanged production: the new reservation regression failed
with `native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch` instead of reaching the
admitted lease.
- Review RED: an opaque task-workspace ID reached the UUID query. The
new guard returns the controlled missing-admission error before the
query.
- Review RED: a valid no-files Cursor controller was treated as a
missing task workspace. The existing task-workspace projection now keeps
that controller on its prior path.
- Clean final production-source regression: both restart cases passed in
a fresh embedded PostgreSQL cluster. These cover both receipt paths and
all binding, bootstrap and API-controller controls.
- The initial focused checks passed 11 cases. Seven existing ordinary
Retry and environment selection cases also passed. A later combined
final-base run had 17 assertions pass but failed workspace teardown at
90 seconds and task-Retry setup at 30 seconds. That attempt is retained
as a failure; the two new restart cases then passed alone with exit 0.
Earlier PostgreSQL support-probe failures are also retained as setup
failures.
- The worktree's own Runner, shared and SDK dependencies were built. All
seven server typecheck layers passed for the final production source.
The final additional commit changes only the existing resume-owner
fixture.
- Required CI found an invalid fixture binding in [server shard
11](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42322379917/job/128250151095).
The first attempt failed before lease acquisition because the fixture
named a random workspace with no row. The automatic test retry then
failed on its fixed issue label. The fixture now uses the transient
run-ID contract and a unique label. Its exact original acquisition and
owner-release assertions pass locally with exit 0.
- Whitespace and added-code-comment checks passed.
- Final commit `f0e41e8c6b949f43863ec60fc7b96b97025eafc6` passed
required
[CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42323826555):
56 successful checks, four intended skips, one neutral result, and no
pending or failed checks. Greptile and Ponytail both gave this exact
head 5/5 with no actionable findings. No review threads remain open.
Hosted deployment and original-task recovery remain separate from local
proof.

## Risks

Malformed or missing native admission records now hold rather than
selecting fresh work. Valid initial admissions and synthetic run-ID
bootstraps retain their prior path. The change does not grant
reattachment authority or settle provider effects. Existing controller,
workspace writer, lease, Stop, and trust checks still apply. No API,
schema, or configuration contract changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 family through Codex. The runtime does not expose the exact
serving model ID or context window. No model override was used. The
assistant used reasoning, code editing, shell tools, and local tests.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 9a52a2dfeb fix(native): retry ACPX session.open startup timeouts and give cold Claude a 60 s bound (#19661)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs start an ACPX provider through Runner. `session.open`
opens the provider session before any prompt.
> - On a loaded host, a cold ACPX Claude `session.open` took longer than
its 30-second bound. The controller reported
`runner_local_connect_failed: PRP command session.open timed out`.
> - The server classified this as the generic
`native_session_interrupted` with `ambiguous_state`, so the task was
blocked at once. A person had to click Retry, sometimes several times.
In one restart-chaos storm, one task needed three Retry clicks, and on
another task both Retry runs timed out too.
> - The server already has a bounded same-run bootstrap retry for
failures that come before provider work (#18854). It did not recognize
this timeout. The 30-second bound also cut off normal slow startups.
> - This pull request gives cold ACPX Claude a 60-second `session.open`
bound, like Pi and OpenCode (#19487). It also retries a startup
`session.open` timeout automatically on the same run, from clean state.
> - The benefit is that a slow cold start on a busy host completes, or
retries itself, instead of waiting for a person.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18854 (bounded bootstrap retry for definite `session.open`
failures), #19487 (60-second cold OpenCode admission), #19665 (the
bootstrap proof that this change reuses).

**What happened?**

ACPX Claude runs failed with `runner_local_connect_failed: PRP command
session.open timed out` about 35 to 40 seconds after they started. The
coordinator recorded `native_session_interrupted` with `recoveryMode:
"ambiguous_state"` and `providerSessionEstablished: false`. The task was
blocked with a board-owned action. No provider event and no checkpoint
existed. The host 1-minute load was 17 to 44, sometimes with no restart
nearby.

**Expected behavior**

A normal slow cold start completes. A `session.open` that still times
out during runner startup, with no provider event, no checkpoint and no
turn, retries on the same run with backoff. At most two automatic
attempts follow the first. A run where provider work may have started is
never retried automatically.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run ACPX Claude tasks on a host with a 1-minute load of about 25 or
more.
2. Observe a run fail after about 35 to 40 seconds with `PRP command
session.open timed out`.
3. Observe the task blocked with `ambiguous_state` and a manual Retry.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at `6c7cc2c5d6`.

## What Changed

The bound (evidence below):

- `coldAdmissionTimeoutMs` gives cold ACPX Claude 60 seconds (live
adoption keeps 30 seconds). The runner's Rust sidecar
`session_open_timeout` and the sidecar's provider handshake
(`acpxSessionHandshakeTimeoutMs`) give Claude and Pi 60 seconds too. All
three bounds must agree, or the shortest one fails first. Claude's warm
run attachment uses the same cold budget, like Pi.

The automatic retry:

- `nativeSessionFailureSourceCode` returns
`provider_session_open_timeout` only for exactly `<startup failure
code>: PRP command session.open timed out`. The startup failure codes
are `runner_local_connect_failed`, `runner_direct_wss_failed` and
`runner_ingress_unavailable`. The transport uses them only before
startup completes. After startup the code is
`provider_transport_failed`, which is unchanged.
- `nativeProviderRecoveryEvidence` treats the cause as pre-session.
Durable evidence still decides: a bootstrap retry needs no provider
event (`session.started`, `turn.started` and the others) and no
checkpoint. The existing budget applies: three attempts with backoff of
about 30 seconds, then about 60 seconds. When the budget is used, the
task is blocked with the existing "Provider startup failed on 3 attempts
before any provider work began" action.
- A timeout is indeterminate: the runner can open a provider session
after the controller stops waiting. Live runs showed both leftovers, so
the retry now starts from clean state:
- `prepareNativeSessionOpenTimeoutRetry` (server) runs when the failure
settles. It quarantines a local runner root only when the
restart-recovery proof (`runnerdStateProvesIncompleteBootstrap`, #19665)
shows that no turn began and every recorded process is gone. Any other
root, and any remote runner, stays `ambiguous_state` as before.
- `resetAbandonedBootstrapRecord` (runner ACPX adapter) runs on a fresh
open (no runner-recorded identity). If ACPX has a saved record for the
session key with no messages, no prompt and no events, it is marked
`reset_on_next_ensure`. Claude saves nothing before the first prompt, so
reusing such a record fails the first turn with
`session_resume_required`. A record that holds any conversation is
unchanged.
- A chat retry of an exhausted `provider_session_open_timeout` run is
accepted like the other pre-provider causes.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` and the Runner README describe the cause
and the bound.

## Verification

**Measured startup distribution** (ACPX Claude
`runner.session.bootstrap` / `runner.session.startup` spans from
restart-chaos run events, 1-minute load 8 to 44):

| Source | Bound | Successful cold bootstraps (s) | Failures |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Earlier storm evidence | 30 s | 2.9, 4.7, 7.4, 8.6, 8.7, 26.2, 27.4,
27.6, 29.2 | startups ended at 34.9 to 40.3 s (the 30 s `session.open`
bound plus spawn and `run.prepare`) |
| This branch, wave s3601 | 60 s | 6.3, 7.8, 8.1, 13.4, 14.4, 22.3,
22.8, 22.9, **37.3** | 0 `session.open` timeouts |
| This branch, wave s3602 | 60 s | 13 samples, p50 10.5, p90 17.9, max
25.7 | 0 `session.open` timeouts |
| This branch, wave s3610 (final head, load 28 to 42) | 60 s | 10.4,
11.3, 11.7, 12.0, 13.3, 14.2, 29.6, **30.4**, **30.9** | 0
`session.open` timeouts |

Under load, successes clustered just under 30 s and failures sat just
above it, so the 30 s bound was cutting the distribution off. With 60 s,
cold starts of 30.4, 30.9 and 37.3 s succeeded that the old bound would
have failed. 60 s is about 1.6 times the largest observed success, and
it matches Pi and OpenCode.

**Live restart-chaos waves** (local, ACPX Claude only, 4 in flight,
`--rc06-masked`, real provider, K1/K2 restarts):

- s3601 (8 tasks, load 19 to 32): 7/8 PASS. No `session.open` timeout.
The one failure is an R3 Retry signature after K1
(`native_restart_recovery_blocked`), not this cause.
- s3602 (8 tasks, load 17 to 39): 8/8 PASS. No `session.open` timeout.
Three Retry clicks were for `native_provider_terminal_failed`
(`provider_turn_lost_on_restore`), a different restart signature.
- Forced timeout, s3609 (4 tasks, B5, K2): a local, uncommitted fault
injection gave every other cold startup a 1.5 s `session.open` deadline.
Result 4/4 PASS. Run 4fe6537a timed out, retried itself on the same run,
and then succeeded through four K2 restarts with no person involved. Run
02799a85 hit the injection three times in a row; the budget stopped it
after attempt 3, and one Retry completed it.
- Before the two clean-state fixes, the same forced wave (s3607 and
s3608) showed the retry reusing leftover state: `turn.start` failed with
`session_resume_required`, and then "ACPX session is not open". Those
runs are the red evidence for the two clean-state fixes.
- Final head, s3610 (8 tasks, K1/K2, no injection, load 28 to 42): **8/8
PASS**, 0 `session.open` timeouts. The one Retry click (t06) was for
`provider_turn_lost_on_restore`, a different restart signature.

**Tests:**

- Red before the fix: `native-startup-retry.integration.test.ts -t
timeout` (embedded PostgreSQL, real executor, real resume claim). The 3
retry cases failed with `native_session_interrupted` /
`ambiguous_state`.
- Green: `native-startup-retry.integration.test.ts` passes 36/36. New
cases:
- for each startup failure code, a timeout retries on the same run with
backoff, keeps the task `in_progress` with an agent-owned
`resume_native_run` wake, and blocks after attempt 3 with a board-owned
action;
- no automatic retry when `session.started` or `turn.started` is
durable, when the code is `provider_transport_failed`, or when another
command timed out;
- a real runner root with an opened session and no turn is quarantined;
a root with a turn command stays `ambiguous_state` and intact; a remote
runner is never prepared.
- `codex-runtime-adapter.test.ts`: 113 pass. New cases: a 45 s delayed
handshake is admitted for Claude and rejected for Codex; a
never-prompted record is reset only on a fresh open; records with
messages, a prompt or events are kept.
- `abandoned-bootstrap-record.test.ts` (real `createAcpRuntime` with
`createRuntimeStore` and a controlled ACP peer that, like Claude, cannot
load a never-prompted session): without the reset, a fresh open reuses
the record and the first turn fails with SESSION_RESUME_REQUIRED after
`session/load`. With the reset, the provider receives `session/new` and
the turn completes.
- `vitest run src/drivers/acpx src/cli` in the runner: 107 files, 1,935
tests pass.
- `native-session-executor.test.ts -t "session.open|startup|bootstrap"`:
144 pass. `runnerd-codex-transport.test.ts -t "cold process admission"`:
4 pass. `cargo test -p paperclip-runner-core --lib admission_budget`
passes.
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p server` and the runner `tsc -p
tsconfig.test.json` pass.

## Risks

- **This changes Runner Rust code. The Daytona runner image must be
rebuilt after merge** for remote sandboxes to get the 60-second sidecar
bound. Until then, a remote Claude `session.open` still fails at 30
seconds in the sidecar (as a definite failure, which already retries). A
remote timeout stays operator-owned, because a remote root cannot be
proven clean here.
- A cold ACPX Claude start that hangs now fails after about 60 seconds
instead of 30 seconds.
- A timed-out `session.open` may have created an empty provider session.
No prompt was sent. The retry quarantines that runner root and asks ACPX
for a new session.
- Same-run retries of a fresh-attempt Retry run can still fail with
`isolated_task_directory_binding_mismatch`. This is RC-35 (workspace
re-preparation), which has its own fix in progress.
- No schema or API change. The new error code appears on runs and in run
error codes.

DottaandPaperclip b94963f91e fix: retry temporary repository catalog failures before dispatch (#19690)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - A task must check repository access before it starts agent work.
> - Repository discovery can fail while the user's existing grant
remains valid.
> - Discovery previously replaced a known temporary provider refusal
with an empty catalog.
> - The task then reported lost access and did not schedule recovery.
> - This change keeps temporary discovery failures distinct and uses the
existing bounded retry owner.
> - Each retry must pass a fresh access check before it can use the
saved repository.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A task with a saved catalog repository stops with an access denial when
GitHub returns an exhausted-quota response or HTTP 503. The task does
not start provider work, but the discovery layer discards the temporary
failure and returns an empty catalog.

**Expected behavior**

Known temporary failures before provider dispatch use the existing
bounded infrastructure retry. The successor checks the same responsible
user's current grants and reads the saved files only after fresh
discovery succeeds. A completed denial remains terminal.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Bind a task to an authorized catalog repository with saved local
changes.
2. Make its authorized GitHub discovery return HTTP 403 with zero
remaining quota, or HTTP 503.
3. Let discovery recover before the existing retry deadline.
4. Observe one successful successor using the original repository bytes.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master at `b8d94b3ad1`. A search found no existing PR for
this temporary catalog failure.

## What Changed

- Keep a safe typed failure for known HTTP availability and quota
responses. Honor the later provider deadline and bound it to one day.
- Propagate that failure only when fresh discovery cannot find a
required repository. Preserve successful partial catalogs and the
existing connection setup error contract.
- Classify the failure only before provider dispatch. Reuse existing
bounded retry, interaction ownership, and bootstrap settlement rules.
- Keep current grant checks, saved repository selection, normal Stop,
and provider-started failure policy.
- Keep provider deadlines when accepted interactions use their own retry
owner. Recognize secondary HTTP 403 rate limits with valid retry advice
while keeping ordinary permission denials terminal. This matches [GitHub
rate-limit
guidance](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/using-the-rest-api/rate-limits-for-the-rest-api).
- Keep direct repository request responses outside the automatic
bootstrap retry contract. Test successful partial discovery and
missing-required-repository recovery with two independent eligible
connections.
- Document task repository discovery recovery.

## Verification

- Behavioral RED: real heartbeat and PostgreSQL fixtures reached actual
HTTP 403 and503 discovery responses, started no adapter, and found zero
successors instead of one. Both cases failed before the production
change.
- Behavioral GREEN: both cases waited for the real retry deadline, used
the normal queue worker, ran the controlled adapter once after fresh
discovery, and read the original saved bytes. Two cases passed in 74.73
seconds. No external model or provider request was made.
- Deadline RED/GREEN: a combined Retry-After and quota-reset response
initially selected the earlier deadline. The regression now selects the
later deadline.
- Initial repair at `d8d4714a18` (same production source as
`018e8c52d345d79972d7907468080dc9908c299f`): seven affected files
passed, 69 cases in 185.16 seconds. That test-only cleanup then passed
all five real-database acceptance cases in 134.76 seconds.
- Commands: `pnpm exec vitest run` with
`heartbeat-repository-catalog-recovery.test.ts`,
`github-catalog-timing.test.ts`, `github-grant-metadata.test.ts`,
`project-repositories-persistence.test.ts`,
`task-workspace-repositories-persistence.test.ts`,
`github-repository-catalog-failure.test.ts`, and
`services/heartbeat/retries.test.ts` from the server source tree. The
acceptance file also ran fresh at `018e8c52d3`. A fresh five-case run
after the P1 repairs passed at `f490ca6b78` in 122.06 seconds. The final
eight-case file passed fresh at
`e5b2efab11919467850f55fd6345317132b9b672` in 124.62 seconds, using real
owned embedded PostgreSQL. It covers automatic recovery with saved
bytes, genuine denial, provider-started classification, normal Stop, the
direct HTTP route, and both partial-catalog outcomes.
- Review repairs at `f490ca6b787cf77df96d3d6edfb2ab9115eb19a6`: both
reported P1s reproduced RED. The real database interaction scheduler
chose a retry after 24 seconds before the provider deadline of one hour.
A secondary HTTP 403 with valid Retry-After lost its retry
classification. The narrow fixes then passed 44 cases across scheduler,
header, and metadata-contract files in 37.66 seconds.
- A real direct request through the task workspace router and normal
error middleware reproduced a 500 response instead of the existing 403.
Required-ID retry mode now applies only to admission and its rechecks.
The route and both two-connection partial-catalog cases then passed in
29.09 seconds. Both partial cases use actual owned grants and credential
bindings.
- All seven server type layers passed again at final head
`e5b2efab11919467850f55fd6345317132b9b672`. The affected test type layer
passed again after the test-only cleanup. Environment: macOS arm64, Node
26.4.0, pinned pnpm 9.15.4, Vitest 5.0.3, owned disposable PostgreSQL 18
on loopback. The current checkout's shared packages, plugin SDK, and
Runner were built first.
- One local acceptance run under concurrent owned test/typecheck load
hit the unchanged 15-second Stop-case timeout. Its four other cases
passed. The unchanged complete file then passed serially. The timeout
receipt remains recorded; no assertion or timeout was weakened.
- A provider-started failure retains the existing generic adapter retry
policy. It does not receive the catalog no-provider certificate or a
provider retry deadline. Fixture cleanup cancels its scheduled retry
through the normal owner.
- Final head `e5b2efab11919467850f55fd6345317132b9b672` has 59
successful checks, 3 allowed skips, no pending or failed check, and
Greptile 5/5 with no open findings. [Completed CI
workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42322202977).
- Additional local diagnostic for the late recovery-owner advisory: on
unchanged `e5b2efab`, the dedicated scheduler returned `retry_exhausted`
with attempt 3/max 2. The normal stranded sweeper then escalated once,
created no extra run, and started no adapter, even after catalog access
recovered. One case passed in 17.32 seconds. The existing
failed-predecessor path delegates to that bounded scheduler and returns;
it does not enter a new generic retry budget. No production registry
change was made. This diagnostic was not a CI case. Its local harness is
preserved separately at `74e3854eea3f7c4121fdcd9c8a8ad522cd8c7477` on
`codex/catalog-exhaustion-acceptance`; its production source is
identical to `e5b2efab`.
- Module boundary and whitespace checks passed.

## Risks

- A temporary failure from another eligible connection can delay a truly
missing repository for the existing limit of two attempts. It cannot
grant access.
- Unknown network errors and genuine access denials retain their
existing behavior. This change handles known HTTP failures only.
- Historical provider quota causality is unproven. This repair has a
separate local producer regression. It does not rewrite past failures or
queued user intents.
- Acceptance uses real local database and heartbeat owners with
controlled HTTP and adapter fixtures. It does not claim a live
native-provider recovery.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 Codex (`gpt-6.1-sol`), with high reasoning, repository
tools, code execution, and controlled local PostgreSQL tests. The host
did not expose a context-window size.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 20fc37778f fix(runner): keep settled OpenCode sessions across a controller proxy rebuild (#19641)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The native Runner keeps an OpenCode conversation in durable state,
so a task can continue after a control-plane restart.
> - Saved OpenCode state binds one digest of the launch profile: the
Node command, the proxy bundle and the OpenCode executable, each by path
and SHA-256.
> - The Node command and the proxy bundle are controller runtime. A
rebuild or deploy between a hard kill and recovery replaces their bytes.
> - The recovery probe then refused a settled conversation with
`provider_state_incompatible`, although the OpenCode release and the
conversation were unchanged.
> - ACPX already re-binds a settled session after a Runner upgrade
(#18879). OpenCode did not.
> - This pull request records the OpenCode release digest in saved state
and re-binds a settled session when that release is unchanged.
> - The benefit is that a task continues automatically after a restart
that also changed the controller build. A real release change still
fails closed.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19558, #19501, #18879.

**What happened?**

A restart-chaos wave killed the control plane with SIGKILL while an
OpenCode run was settled between turns. The first recovery attempt
restored the session. The controller's runner `dist` was then rebuilt in
the same checkout. The next recovery attempt failed in the
`runner.drain` resume probe with `OpenCode runner launch profile changed
across durable recovery` (`native_provider_state_incompatible`). The
saved state matched the original proxy bytes exactly. Only the proxy
bundle bytes had changed. The OpenCode executable, the paths and the
model were the same.

**Expected behavior**

A settled OpenCode session continues after a restart when only
controller runtime bytes changed. A changed OpenCode release, or a
session with work in flight, fails closed. The existing disposition then
offers one Retry that continues in a fresh provider session.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start an OpenCode run and let it settle between turns.
2. Kill the runner and the controller.
3. Replace the qualified proxy bundle with valid new bytes (rebuild or
deploy).
4. Recover the run. The resume probe fails with
`provider_state_incompatible`.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at a08f9494ea.

## What Changed

- `CodexProviderState` records `opencodeReleaseDigest`: the SHA-256 of
the qualified OpenCode executable, which owns the saved conversation.
- Restore re-binds a saved OpenCode session to the current launch
profile only when all of these are true:
  - The saved release digest equals the current executable digest.
- The saved configuration names the current command and proxy paths (the
existing binding check).
- The session is settled: no active or ambiguous turn, startup attempt,
receipt-limit interrupt, pending tool call, undelivered or queued
provider event, or working goal. The lifecycle is `prepared`,
`session_open`, or `provider_exited` (an observed idle exit that restore
already restarts).
- Every other mismatch keeps the exact binding and fails closed with
`provider_state_incompatible`. State written before the new field has no
release digest, so it stays exact.
- Session start still verifies every launch artifact and the restored
provider identity.
- `docs/durable-recovery.md` documents the OpenCode re-bind rule next to
the ACPX rule.
- The #19558 regression that required refusal of a new proxy for a
prepared run now asserts the re-bind. The remote pack retention from
#19558 is unchanged.

## Verification

- Red first:
`settled_opencode_session_continues_after_a_controller_proxy_rebuild`
failed on unchanged production code with the production message, from
the same `runner.drain` probe. It passes after the change. It also
checks that the conversation is resumed (`thread/resume`), that a new
turn completes, and that the re-bound digest persists.
- Counter-tests that still refuse: changed OpenCode release on a settled
session (state bytes unchanged), proxy rebuild with an active turn
(state bytes unchanged), and legacy state without a release digest. The
existing executable-drift test still refuses.
`exited_opencode_session_continues_after_a_controller_proxy_rebuild`
covers a kill after an observed idle provider exit (red before the
follow-up commit, green after).
- `cargo test -p paperclip-runner-core --test native_provider_backend`:
45 passed (one unrelated Pi lifetime-fence test flaked once under load
35 and passed 3/3 alone). `cargo test -p paperclip-runner-core --lib
provider_backend`: 145 passed. `cargo fmt` and `cargo clippy` are clean
for the changed code.
- Live restart-chaos waves (local env, OpenCode only, concurrency 2,
`--rc06-masked`). A drift injector appended a valid comment to the local
OpenCode proxy bundle after every fault took the controller down, so
each recovery saw a changed proxy digest.
- Wave 1, seed 3201, 4 tasks, 4 × K1: 3 tasks finished automatically.
The fourth was killed with a turn in flight. Recovery failed closed with
`native_provider_state_incompatible`, as designed. One Retry worked on
the first click and completed the task (R3 pass). That task's grade is
`R5:silent_dead_run`: the Retry run was quiet for 180 s during the B5
benchmark. This is not a launch-profile failure.
- Wave 2, seed 3207, 3 tasks, K1 × 2 and K6: 3/3 pass. The K6 task also
had a turn in flight. It failed closed and one Retry completed it.
- In both waves every kill landed with a turn in flight or before a
durable session. The settled re-bind path was therefore not reached
live. The Rust executor regression above covers that path.
- Environment: macOS arm64, Node 26.4.0, local env, load average 17–39.

## Risks

- A settled OpenCode session now runs on the current proxy bundle after
a controller upgrade. The proxy keeps no state of its own; OpenCode owns
the conversation store. ACPX already accepts the same trade-off for its
sidecar.
- Sessions with work in flight are still refused. This is conservative
and matches ACPX.
- Runs saved by an older Runner have no release digest, so they keep the
old exact behavior once.
- Cursor Cloud keeps its exact binding. It is out of scope.

DottaandPaperclip 254b44f72b fix(remote-workspaces): recover retired roots that cannot be renamed (#19674)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Remote workspaces must retain saved files across process and sandbox
replacement.
> - Restore uses identity receipts to distinguish a retired owned root
from an unrelated directory.
> - Some overlay filesystems reject a directory rename with EXDEV even
within one mount.
> - That error currently prevents a valid saved workspace from being
restored.
> - This pull request replaces only a verified retired root in place
when that rename fails.
> - Runtime state stays in place. Each restore holds a root-specific OS
lock.
> - A durable workspace epoch fence rejects delayed older commands. A
pending marker keeps interrupted cleanup recoverable.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Workspace restore fails with `remote_workspace_restore_failed:
stage=publish code=EXDEV syscall=rename` when the retired directory
comes from a lower overlay layer. Retry repeats the same rename.

**Expected behavior**

Restore should publish the verified saved workspace and preserve runtime
state. An interrupted restore should remain safe to retry.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create an owned retired root with a valid identity receipt, runtime
state, and stale files.
2. Make directory rename return EXDEV for the existing lower-layer root.
3. Restore a saved workspace through `restoreRemoteWorkspaceDirectory`.
4. Repeat with an interruption before the new restore receipt is
published.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The regression fails before this change on base
`a2aa69bc6230c8b81de3588d7d5571b38db4dd04`.

**Deployment mode**

Remote sandbox with an overlay filesystem. Local regression: macOS
arm64, Node 26.4.0, source checkout.

Refs #19231. Refs #19251. Those changes establish the retained-root
restore path. This fix handles its EXDEV publication failure.

## What Changed

- Keep the EXDEV fallback limited to a verified retired workspace root.
Preserve runtime state and the existing ownership checks.
- Hold a private SQLite OS lock across receipt checks, file replacement,
cleanup, and receipt publication. Keep the lock file outside the
replaced root. Process exit releases ownership; a lost reply does not.
- Pass the existing workspace authority epoch from the real restore
caller. Write and sync a separate epoch fence before root changes.
Reject lower epochs, conflicting identities within one epoch, and
missing epochs on fenced roots. The fence survives SQLite rollback after
process death.
- Publish a pending marker without a completed identity until stale
preparation-receipt removal and directory-mode cleanup finish. A retry
can finish that cleanup. A higher authorized epoch can then restore its
selected save.
- Preserve later file and permission edits when adopting a completed
restore. Refuse unsafe lock files and malformed authority records.
Document compatibility and the stop-evidence boundary.

## Verification

- RED before the original fix: real restore commands failed with EXDEV.
The test preload changes only the kernel rename result.
- RED before the review fixes: a live command with an unconfirmed
timed-out reply overwrote edits made after retry. Tests also reproduced
incomplete cleanup after receipt publication.
- RED before the authority fence: a delayed older command replaced a
newer completed restore. It also passed after the newer command was
killed before root mutation. The final test uses real separate Node
processes, OS lock contention, SIGKILL, and a durable on-disk fence.
- Final local checks: 142 transport filesystem tests, 16 real PostgreSQL
restore-caller cases, and all seven server typecheck layers. The caller
cases verify the published receipt uses the current workspace epoch.
- Late review RED: an actual separate SQLite owner made the real
PostgreSQL restore caller mark an expired lock wait non-retryable.
Corrupt fence and receipt bytes also produced a raw syntax error without
the required refusal reason. Both regressions now pass. Only the test
clock advances the lock deadline; actual OS lock contention and the
production caller run unchanged.
- Lock contention stays retryable only under the existing same clean
writer, epoch, and snapshot proof. Four negative cases change those
fields and remain non-retryable. After the owner stops, normal restore
returns the useful saved files. Corrupt authority records stay untouched
and non-retryable.
- Safety cases cover same and different authorized identities,
process-death lock release, an unrelated root making progress, pending
cleanup interruption, malformed or missing fences, invalid input, and
unsafe lock parents/files.
- The first final transport attempt passed 139 cases and failed only
because the restricted shell could not open a Unix socket (`listen
EPERM`). The full suite was then run with the required local socket
permission. No production change was made for that setup failure.
- Reproduce the filesystem checks from `server/`:
`../node_modules/.bin/vitest run --config vitest.config.ts
src/services/remote-workspace-transport.test.ts`. Run the caller file
with `-t "restores a newer save over this workspace|preserves the
published workspace path"` and the repository test PostgreSQL setup. Run
`node scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs` from `server/` for all seven layers.
- Agent preflight, module boundary audit, and `git diff --check` passed.
No added code comments or private issue references occur in the patch.
- Local EXDEV proof uses macOS arm64 and Node 26.4.0. It does not claim
a new Linux overlay-kernel run or hosted recovery. Final source:
[`8092cc6b2ec448ff372337b1e7a43854eae7bb08`](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/commit/8092cc6b2ec448ff372337b1e7a43854eae7bb08).
[Exact-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42321313715)
completed with 59 successful checks, three conditional skips, and one
neutral check. Greptile gave this exact head 5/5. The independent review
passed. No review threads remain open.

## Risks

The EXDEV path changes files in place. It must finish before execution
admission. Participating restore commands use a private permanent SQLite
lock file and a separately synced epoch fence. The qualified sandbox
Node runtime must support `node:sqlite`. Lock contention has a
120-second limit and does not clear live ownership.

A legacy command that never acquired this lock remains outside its
protection. Hosted recovery must confirm that command stopped; a timeout
is insufficient. The new fence does not backfill that evidence. A
conflicting identity in the same epoch or a malformed fence stays
blocked. A higher epoch can recover an interrupted pending restore only
with the existing retired-root replacement authority. No controller
database schema, execution permission, or provider-state guard changes.

## Model Used

Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`) authored the recovered
patch. OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, recovered, reproduced, repaired the
review findings, and verified the change with filesystem tests, shell
tools, and code execution. The Codex exact serving model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session. No value is

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 e05bced39f fix(runner): adopt an accepted Codex turn whose start outlives the bound (#19608)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Native Codex runs submit each turn through runnerd. The transport
answers `turn/start` only after it sees the provider's `turn/started`
for the turn the durable command result named
> - That wait has a fixed 30 s bound
> - At host load around 50, after two hard restarts, Codex accepted a
turn and started it about 27 s after the command, beyond the bound once
scheduling delay was added. The transport failed the start, but the
provider kept running the turn and made a tool call
> - No controller owned that turn. Its close could not settle, and the
task's Retry was refused at once
> - This pull request adopts the accepted turn when the bound expires,
but only when the runner still reports that turn active
> - The benefit is that a slow but live provider turn stays owned, so
its events, Stop and close keep working

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In a restart chaos replay (two SIGKILLs about 20 s apart, local runner,
real Codex, load 50), a resumed run failed with `runnerd did not report
the provider turn identity`. The runner journal shows the durable
`turn.start` result with the provider turn id, then `turn.started` for
that same turn 27 s later, followed by items and a semantic tool call.
The run's close then stayed incomplete (`semanticResultsSettled:
false`), and a Retry of the task failed with
`native_session_cleanup_quarantined: prior session cleanup remains
incomplete`.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Use a Codex provider that answers `turn/start` and emits
`turn/started` later than the transport's turn-start bound.
2. Start a turn through the runnerd transport.

**Expected behavior**
The accepted turn is owned and observed by the controller.

**Actual behavior**
The start fails after the bound, while the provider still runs the turn.

## What Changed

- `runnerd-codex-transport.ts` (`#startTurnWork`):
- Near the end of the bound, if `turn/started` has not arrived, the
transport reads an authenticated `session.snapshot`. It reserves at most
5 s (or a quarter of the bound) for this read.
  - It binds the accepted turn only when the turn is provably live:
    - the runner reports that exact provider turn as active;
- the runner attributed no provider launch
(`provider_startup_ownership`) to a command after this `turn.start`;
- for a local provider, the same process (pid and start time) that
accepted the turn is still alive.
- Otherwise it keeps waiting for `turn/started` until the configured
bound and fails exactly as before. A turn lost across a provider
relaunch keeps the same-run resume path.
- `fake-codex-app-server.rs`: new test options `--turn-started-delay-ms`
(a delay between the `turn/start` response and `turn/started`) and
`--exit-before-turn-started`.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner exec
vitest run src/live/runnerd-codex-transport-deadlines.test.ts -t "adopts
a durably accepted"` (real runnerd and fake Codex, 12 s start delay, 8 s
bound) failed with `runnerd did not report the provider turn identity`.
This is the replay's error.
- Green after the fix: the start resolves with `provider-turn-1`, and
`turn/started` and the turn's terminal follow in order. There is one
provider `turn/start`.
- Negative case (`does not adopt an accepted turn the runner no longer
reports active`): the provider accepts the turn and exits before
starting it. The runner relaunches the provider and still lists the
turn, but the turn is not adopted. The start fails within the bound plus
scheduling slack. A snapshot-only version of this change adopted that
dead turn, and it hung for 20 s with no terminal.
- `src/native-session-runtime.test.ts`,
`src/live/runnerd-restart-continuation.test.ts` and
`src/live/runnerd-codex-transport-deadlines.test.ts` pass. The package
typecheck passes.
- Live chaos replays: results are added in a comment.

## Risks

- A provably live provider that accepts a turn and never starts it now
waits on the turn's own timeout and Stop paths instead of failing after
30 s. A dead or relaunched provider still fails at the bound.
- Remote runners can adopt only on the runner's own evidence (active
turn and no later provider launch), because their provider pid is not a
local process.
- A stale `turn/started` for a previous turn that arrives after the new
command result is still rejected. The transport cannot attribute that
turn's following events, so rejecting it fails only the transport, and
the same-run resume continues the task (seen in the replay). Delivering
it would attach the old turn's items and usage to the new turn.

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, with tool use and code
execution in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 06bbcea12f fix(budgets): price lost receipts and stop restart-derived accounting from hard-stopping companies (#19673)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Budget admission and run accounting decide whether any task in a
company may start
> - #19497 made pending accounting an admission hold and settles a
stopped run's lost receipt as an unpriced charge
> - Restart-chaos waves still stopped whole companies. A lost Codex
receipt with complete token counts settled as unpriced because the rate
card only prices complete receipts. Under the default blocking policy
that hard-stopped the company at 0.38 of 3000 cents. In another storm, a
resumed run's continuation was refused by its own task's
recovering-accounting hold. Separately, unpriced charges with zero
tokens or a known partial cost hard-stopped a company at 120 of 2000
cents
> - This pull request prices a lost receipt's observed usage from the
rate card, lets a task's continuation pass its own recovering
accounting, and stops restart-derived or evidence-free unpriced charges
from tripping the blocking policy
> - The benefit is that a restart no longer pauses a company by itself,
while genuinely unpriced usage still blocks

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Follow-up to #19497. Refs #19606.

**What happened?**
- Wave A (K6 crash loop): native Codex run `5037b8d1` was killed
mid-turn. Its receipt was lost, but `usage_json` held gpt-6.1-sol with
28690 input and 220 output tokens. The charge was written
`cost_status=unpriced`, `pricing_provenance.source=unknown`, because
`priceCodexReceipt` returns early when `!receipt.complete`. 0.2 s later
the default `unpricedUsagePolicy=block` opened a hard incident at 0.38
of 3000 cents. The company was paused, and 6/6 tasks were blocked with
`canRetry=false`.
- Wave B (K1 storm): Claude run `2a7a8abf` resumed after the restart.
`reserveRunBudget` refused its interaction continuation with "New work
must wait while a native run recovers its unfinished accounting", so the
task could not settle its own recovery. A 0-token unpriced charge and an
unpriced charge with a known 0.81-cent cost then hard-stopped the
company at 120 of 2000 cents.

**What did you expect?**
A restart-lost receipt with known numbers is priced as an estimate, and
no restart-derived accounting state pauses a company by itself. A task's
own continuation is never held by its own accounting. Real usage above
the limit, and genuinely unpriced usage, still stop work.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Give a company a hard-stop budget with the default unpriced-usage
policy.
2. Kill a native Codex turn after it has reported tokens, so the final
receipt is lost and native recovery ends in terminal failure with a
verified stop.
3. Observe an unpriced charge for known tokens, a hard incident, and a
paused company.

## What Changed

- `run-cost-accounting.ts`: when a lost receipt settles and its usage
has known tokens and no known cost, price it with
`priceCodexReceipt`/`priceAnthropicReceipt` as a complete per-run
checkpoint. The charge is `estimated`, its provenance keeps the
rate-card source, and its evidence says "final receipt lost; observed
usage is a lower bound". The estimate is also written to the run's usage
so a later receipt reconciles against it. Zero observed tokens, and
per-model usage, stay unpriced (unknown is never shown as zero, and
aggregate totals never take one model's rate).
- `budget-exposure.ts`:
- The pending/recovering accounting hold excludes the run being admitted
and earlier runs of the same task (same `native_issue_id`). A task's
continuation and finalization can therefore settle its own accounting.
Other tasks stay held, and those runs still count as spend.
- The blocking unpriced-usage policy no longer counts these unpriced
charges: the settled final charge of a lost receipt (restart-derived,
any usage; later growth still counts), a charge with a known partial
cost, and metered API or subscription billing with no observed tokens.
Unknown billing with no tokens (for example Cursor Cloud) and
complete-receipt usage that has no price still block.
- `budgets.ts` / `budget-reservations.ts`: admission accepts the
admitted `runId` and passes it to the exposure read. `reserveRunBudget`,
the final dispatch recheck and the read-only admitted recheck all supply
it, so a continuation that reserves can also dispatch.
- Daytona wave s12 (run f1d98917, a blocked remote recovery with a
0-cent held reservation and every lease destroyed) is closed by #19606.
A Retry for that same task passes the hold through the same-task
exclusion here.

## Verification

- `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts` (embedded Postgres):
- Lost Codex (gpt-6.1-sol) and Claude (claude-sonnet-5) receipts with
observed tokens settle as `estimated` rate-card charges with the
lower-bound evidence. The company stays active and admission is clear
under the blocking policy.
- A lost receipt for a model with no rate card stays unpriced but opens
no incident and no pause.
- A task's continuation reserves budget past its own recovering
accounting, while another task's run is still held.
- Unpriced charges with no tokens on metered billing, or with a known
partial cost, do not hard-stop.
  - Complete-receipt usage with no price still blocks.
  - The six new cases fail on master and pass with this change.
- Existing budget and accounting suites pass locally:
budget-enforcement-scoping, budgets-service, heartbeat-cost-accounting,
run-cost-accounting, native-stop-accounting, cost-data-quality,
budget-live-attempts, budget-live-usage. Server typecheck passes.

## Risks

- A lost receipt's estimate is a lower bound. The provenance says so,
and a later complete receipt still reconciles.
- Restart-derived unpriced charges no longer trip the blocking policy.
Usage lost with a killed provider is not counted against that policy,
which is consistent with budget enforcement being best effort.
Unknown-billing and complete-receipt unpriced usage still block.
- The same-task exemption relies on `native_issue_id`. Legacy runs
without it keep the old behavior.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 785ead5c7a fix(tasks): hold a Retry while the task's own native session close is retained (#19609)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - When a native provider session close fails, the runner keeps a
cleanup owner or quarantine in process memory. Its admission gate
refuses new sessions for that task (scoped to the task since #19532)
> - The server could not see that state. A task's Retry was accepted
(202), its run was dispatched, and the runner refused it at once with
`native_session_cleanup_quarantined: prior session cleanup remains
incomplete`
> - The user saw a Retry that failed instantly, and nothing said what to
do
> - This pull request lets the server read the runner's per-task cleanup
gate and hold the Retry with a clear reason. The Retry starts
automatically when the close is released
> - The benefit is that a Retry is never dispatched only to fail on a
block that is already known

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
After two hard restarts, a Codex run's close stayed incomplete. The
board Retry for that task was accepted, and its run failed in about 1 s
with `native_session_cleanup_quarantined: prior session cleanup remains
incomplete`. The next Retry did the same.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Let a native session close fail or stay pending for a task.
2. Press Retry on that task.

**Expected behavior**
The Retry waits with a clear reason, and starts when the cleanup
finishes. If the cleanup needs an operator, Retry is not offered and the
one working action is shown.

**Actual behavior**
The Retry is accepted and its run fails at once.

## What Changed

- `native-session-runtime.ts`:
- New `nativeSessionCleanupBlock({ companyId, issueId })`. It is a
read-only view of the in-process admission gate for one task: `pending`
(a retained close or a bounded automatic close recovery still owns the
task's provider resources), `operator_required`, or `null`. It grants no
authority.
- New `onNativeSessionCleanupSettled(listener)`. It is called whenever a
cleanup owner or quarantine entry is released.
- `explicit-native-continuation.ts` (the continuation gate for a Retry
or a new message):
- `pending`: the input is held with `local_cleanup` ("Retry is waiting
for the previous execution to finish cleanup. Your message is saved.").
It starts automatically when the close is released.
- `operator_required`: handled exactly like a recorded
`native_session_cleanup_quarantined` run. Retry is not offered. A new
message runs the existing stopped-process proof
(`verifyStoppedNativeSessionForContinuation`), which retires the runner
quarantine when the old processes are proven stopped.
- `native-cleanup-release-wake.ts` (registered in
`server/src/index.ts`): each cleanup release wakes deferred execution
for the company in a transaction, so a held Retry re-evaluates.
- `server/src/vendor/paperclip-runner/index.ts`: exports the two runtime
functions.

## Verification

- Red before the gate (server change stashed): `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/services/quarantined-task-retry.test.ts -t "holds a Retry"`
dispatched a successor run while the task's close was retained
(`expected [ { … } ] to have a length of +0 but got 1`).
- Green after the gate:
- The Retry is held (`deferred_issue_execution`, `executionWait.reason =
local_cleanup`), and no successor is dispatched.
  - A different task is not blocked.
- When the close settles, the release is announced, and the next pass
dispatches exactly one successor.
- The whole `quarantined-task-retry.test.ts` file passes (28 tests).
`src/native-session-runtime.test.ts` passes. Server `tsc --noEmit`
passes after the runner package build.
- Live chaos replays: results are added in a comment.

## Risks

- The gate reads process memory, so it applies only where the server and
the runner session share a process (local runner). Other deployments
keep today's behavior.
- A held Retry re-evaluates on the release wake (sent in its own
transaction) or on the existing 30 s deferred-execution pass. When the
bounded automatic close budget is spent with nothing else scheduled, the
view reports `operator_required`. Retry is then no longer offered, and a
new message reaches the stopped-process recovery instead of waiting
forever.
- No schema or API shape changes.

execution in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 29e05f7e06 fix(heartbeat): sweep orphaned run scratch directories (#19671)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Each heartbeat run gets a scratch directory in the system temp
folder
> - Each process attempt makes a new directory with a marker file
> - Cleanup removes only the directory of the current attempt
> - A restart kills the old attempt, so its directory stays forever
> - One restart storm left 83 directories across 78 runs
> - This pull request sweeps those directories when the run ends and at
startup recovery
> - The benefit is that temp space no longer fills with leftover
directories

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Run scratch directories made before a restart are never removed. A
restart storm left 83 `paperclip-run-*` directories across 78 runs. Each
holds only `.paperclip-run-scratch.json`.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a run that makes a scratch directory.
2. Kill the server process and start it again.
3. Let the run finish.
4. List `$TMPDIR/paperclip-run-*`. The old directory is still there.

**Expected behavior**

The old directory is removed after the run ends, or at startup.

## What Changed

- Add `sweepOrphanedRunScratch` in `server/src/services/run-scratch.ts`.
- The sweep removes a directory only if it has a valid regular-file
marker and its run is terminal in this instance database. It keeps a
directory whose run it cannot see, because another instance can share
the temp root.
- The sweep keeps active runs, unmarked directories, symlinks, and
directories outside `paperclip-run-*`.
- The sweep checks each directory again before removal and bounds the
scan (500, with a rotating start so kept entries do not starve later
ones) and removals (100). A per-run sweep filters by directory name
first. Marker run ids that are not UUIDs never reach the database query.
- Call the sweep after the current attempt's cleanup in `heartbeat.ts`,
for that run only.
- Call the sweep in `reapOrphanedRuns` (startup recovery) with run
status from the database.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/services/run-scratch.test.ts`
- New tests cover: leftover directories of a terminal run are removed,
an active run is kept, an unmarked directory is kept, a symlink is not
followed, and removals are bounded.

## Risks

- Low risk. The sweep acts only on marked directories of terminal runs.
- A directory left by a previous attempt could hold a live grandchild
process. The sweep does not check old process groups. The run is already
terminal.

- Claude, claude-opus-4-5 class model via Claude Code, with tool use and
code execution.

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 0b73c805e8 feat(environments): fill an unset instance default with a managed plugin environment (#19551)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A managed instance gets its instance-level environments from the
`PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG` document, which can declare plugin
environments next to the managed sandbox
> - A platform that runs managed instances wants a new instance to start
with one of those plugin environments as its default, without changing
the default of any instance that already has one
> - #19632 made boot fill the instance default only when it is unset,
local or deleted, in one locked transaction, and removed the revert, so
every existing managed instance keeps a set default
> - This pull request adds an `instanceDefault` flag to a plugin entry.
That entry fills an unset default through the same locked fill, before
the managed sandbox does
> - The fill follows the same readiness rule as an admin's default
write, so it never moves ready agents onto a plugin that has not
prepared them
> - The platform also needs a way to know whether a release understands
plugin entries, so the release now ships a small capabilities file
> - The benefit: new instances get the plugin environment as their
default, and existing instances and admin choices are never changed

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19632 (the locked fill-if-unset rule this builds on), #19508
(plugin entries in the managed config)

**Subsystem affected**
Server environments: the managed config parser and the managed
environment bootstrap.

**Problem or motivation**
The managed config can declare plugin environments, but it can't make
one the instance default on a new instance. An external platform also
has no way to tell whether a given release supports plugin entries
before it sends one.

**Proposed solution**
- Add `instanceDefault: true` to at most one plugin entry. Right after
that entry's boot ensure succeeds, it fills the instance default through
`fillUnsetInstanceDefault`. The managed sandbox fill runs after it.
- On a new instance the plugin environment wins. On an existing instance
the default is already set, so neither fill changes it.
- The fill declines while an active agent that follows the default
hasn't been prepared by that plugin. This is the rule the
instance-settings route enforces. When the plugin fill declines, the
managed sandbox fills as usual.
- Ship `server/src/services/managed-config-capabilities.json`, which
lists `pluginEnvironments`.

**Alternatives considered**
- A recorded one-time decision with a retry worker. It needed pending
states and extra checks for many writer and trigger combinations.
Filling only an unset default, under the existing lock, needs none of
that.
- Rejecting the fill whenever agents exist. That is stricter than the
admin route and blocks harmless cases, such as agents that are paused or
already prepared.

**Roadmap alignment**
This extends existing managed-environment behaviour. It adds no UI.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/managed-config.ts`:
- `ManagedPluginEnvironmentSpec.instanceDefault` (boolean, default
`false`).
- The parser refuses `instanceDefault` on more than one plugin entry, on
the sandbox entry (even `false`), or as a non-boolean.
- `MANAGED_CONFIG_CAPABILITIES` and
`MANAGED_CONFIG_CAPABILITIES_SCHEMA_VERSION` constants. A plugin entry
is refused unless `pluginEnvironments` is listed.
- `server/src/services/managed-config-capabilities.json`: `{
"schemaVersion": 1, "capabilities": ["pluginEnvironments"] }`. A test
pins it to the constants and to this literal contract.
- `server/src/services/managed-environments.ts`:
- New `fillPluginInstanceDefault`. It runs right after a successful boot
ensure of the flagged entry and logs a fill or a decline. Recovery after
boot never fills.
  - The managed sandbox fill now runs once, after the plugin entries.
- `server/src/services/managed-instance-default.ts`:
`fillUnsetInstanceDefault` runs `agentsNeedSetupForEnvironmentChange`
inside its locked transaction and returns `declined:
"agents_need_setup"`. A sandbox target never needs agent setup, so the
managed sandbox fill behaves as before.
- `server/src/services/plugin-environment-driver.ts`: the readiness
query is factored into `agentsNeedSetupForEnvironmentChange`.
`assertAgentsReadyForEnvironmentChange` wraps it and still throws the
same conflict.
- `doc/DEVELOPING.md`: documents `instanceDefault`, the fill order, the
readiness decline, and the capabilities file.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/managed-plugin-environments.test.ts` (embedded Postgres),
under `instanceDefault (fill only an unset default)`:
  - A new instance gets the plugin row as its default.
  - An existing sandbox default is kept, and so is an admin's choice.
- If the plugin was down at the first boot and the sandbox filled, a
later recovery and boot keep the sandbox default.
- An admin-cleared or local default is declined while a ready or
verifying agent follows the default without the plugin's setup. The
managed sandbox then fills it.
- It fills when the agents that follow the default are paused or already
prepared, or are pinned to another environment.
  - Without the flag, nothing happens.
- A new agent that follows the default gets the plugin in
`requiredPluginIds`.
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/managed-instance-default.test.ts`
(embedded Postgres): the earlier fill, lock and overlap cases pass. A
sandbox fill also succeeds while active agents follow the default.
- `npx vitest run
src/services/managed-environments-plugin-entries.test.ts`:
  - The fill order is plugin then sandbox.
  - When the plugin is down there is no fill, and recovery never fills.
- A failed ensure gives only the sandbox fill, and a failed fill keeps
the ensure counted.
  - When the plugin fill declines, the sandbox still fills.
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/managed-config.test.ts
src/services/managed-config-capabilities.test.ts`: parser refusals and
the capabilities contract.
- `npx vitest run src/services/managed-environments.test.ts
src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts`: pass. The route still throws
the same readiness conflict.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` passes.
- I did not run the full `pnpm test:run`, `pnpm -r typecheck` or `pnpm
build`. CI covers them.

## Risks

- An instance whose default is unset at the first boot after this
release gets the plugin environment, if its agents are ready for it.
That covers a new instance, and an instance whose admin cleared the
default or chose the local environment. This is the intended behaviour.
- The readiness check doesn't lock agent rows. If an agent becomes ready
during the boot fill, it can miss the check, which is the same race the
admin route has. Agents created after the fill are prepared for the
plugin, because setup reads the current default.
- If the plugin is down at a new instance's first boot, the instance
keeps the managed sandbox default from then on.
- No schema change.

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 fb3cf1a072 feat(ci): retry a failed Vitest case once in PR CI and report each retried pass (#19637)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Contributors wait for PR CI before merge, so CI wall-clock time sets
the pace of work
> - PR CI runs Vitest shards with 4 workers on 4-vCPU runners, so
timing-sensitive tests sometimes time out under load
> - One such timeout fails the whole run, and a re-run costs another 15
minutes or more
> - In one 7-hour window on 2026-11-06, about 30 failed jobs were test
flakes on commits that passed on a later attempt
> - This pull request retries a failed Vitest case once in PR CI only,
and reports every pass that needed the retry
> - The benefit is fewer whole-run re-runs, while each flaky test stays
visible so that we can fix it

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

PR CI fails the whole run when one Vitest case fails once because of
runner load.

**Subsystem affected**

CI: the PR Vitest lanes (general, serialized, workspace and Runner
package lanes).

**Current behavior**

Vitest uses `retry: 0` everywhere. One timeout under load fails the run.
A person must notice it and re-run the failed jobs. About 20% of
recently merged PRs needed at least one re-run.

**Proposed behavior**

PR CI retries a failed Vitest case one time. A test that passes only on
the retry gets a GitHub warning annotation and a row in the job summary.
Local runs, release, cloud readiness and master keep `retry: 0`.

**Reason and benefit**

A re-run of one test case costs seconds. A re-run of the CI run costs 15
minutes or more. The report keeps flaky tests visible. Separate pull
requests fix the known flaky tests.

**Breaking changes**

None.

## What Changed

- Add `scripts/ci/vitest-retry.mjs`. It sets 1 retry when
`GITHUB_ACTIONS=true` and `GITHUB_WORKFLOW=PR`, and 0 in other contexts.
`PAPERCLIP_VITEST_RETRY` overrides the value.
- Add `scripts/ci/retry-reporter.mjs`. It writes a `::warning`
annotation and a step-summary table row for each test that passed only
on a retry.
- `scripts/run-vitest-stable.mjs` passes `--retry` to `vitest run`. The
`vitest list` collection step does not retry.
- The root `vitest.config.ts` and
`packages/paperclip-runner/vitest.config.ts` add the retry reporter
beside the existing reporters. The Runner config sets `retry` from the
same gate.
- `.github/workflows/pr-trusted.yml` reads the `CI_VITEST_RETRY`
repository variable. Set it to `0` to turn retries off without a code
change.
- Add `scripts/ci/retry-reporter.test.mjs` to `test:release-registry`,
and document the behavior in `doc/DEVELOPING.md`.

## Verification

- `node --test scripts/ci/retry-reporter.test.mjs`: 11/11 pass. The
tests cover the gate matrix, the reporter output, a real Vitest run with
a test that fails once, the wrapper arguments, and the Runner config.
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/run-vitest-stable-shard.test.mjs`:
39/39 pass.
- `node --test .github/scripts/tests/*.test.mjs`: 744/744 pass.
- Manual check: a temporary test that fails once ran through
`run-vitest-stable.mjs` and through the Runner package config. With the
PR environment it passed and wrote the annotation and the summary row.
With `GITHUB_WORKFLOW=Release` it failed. The temporary test is removed.

## Risks

- A retry can hide a flaky test. The annotation and the summary row
reduce this risk.
- A test that fails for a real reason now runs twice in PR CI, so a
failed run takes slightly longer.
- `pr.yml` loads `pr-trusted.yml` from master, so the `CI_VITEST_RETRY`
switch works only after merge. The retry itself is in the scripts and
starts with this pull request.
- Low risk otherwise: release and master verification are not changed.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`) in Claude Code, with tool use and
code execution. A Claude sub-agent wrote the change, and the parent
session reviewed it.

DottaandPaperclip 7ac99718a4 fix(workspaces): fence legacy sources for online migration (#19642)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip coordinates AI agents and preserves their saved work.
> - Remote workspace storage replaces legacy host directories with
durable snapshots.
> - Several legacy workspace records can name one physical project
directory.
> - A task lock alone cannot exclude a new task that selects that
directory.
> - Terminal recovery records can retain valid sources after physical
writers settle.
> - This change fences the source through its real preparation and
lifecycle owners.
> - Idle ordinary sources can then migrate while unrelated remote work
continues.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Online migration rejects ordinary legacy directories when several
workspace records name the same path. A source inspection found 45
aliases across three project roots with no root Git marker or previously
imported nested child. The instance also had unrelated running remote
work. Requiring the whole instance to drain prevented useful migration
of these idle sources.

Terminal native sources and superseded finalization attempts also remain
blocked after their exact physical and durable owners settle. Their
files, provider allocations and recovery records must remain available
through the change of file authority.

**Expected behavior**

Migrate an idle ordinary source under a derived physical source fence.
Let unrelated object-backed turns continue. Preserve provider and
recovery obligations. Keep unknown writers, shared Git stores and
uncertain source state blocked.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create several local workspace records for one managed project
directory.
2. Give the aliases different source tasks. Leave their local writers
idle.
3. Keep a valid remote workspace turn running on another source.
4. Inspect or apply migration to an alias. The old owner returns
`overlapping_workspace_requires_maintenance`.
5. Retain a terminal native prepared source with a null coordinator
owner, or an old finalize attempt with an exact later committed receipt.
The old online path keeps these sources blocked.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Current tested head: `7478c817f09f7eed396922c0f7831af07ae6ff14`, based
on master `8621bcf53ee2e4bbefb7d193add42dd544ca06e8`. Related recovery
work: #19131.

**Deployment mode**

Hosted native Runner with remote workspace storage. Qualification uses
disposable local PostgreSQL databases, actual archive/storage owners and
synthetic source trees. The source observations were read-only.

## What Changed

- Retain the existing company/task source keys and add one physical
managed-project key. Heartbeat source selection, materialization, reopen
and lifecycle owners share it. Configured aliases of canonical task
directories retain their original task key.
- Fence runtime provision and each configured service CWD through both
startup owners. Check all unsettled service CWDs for physical source
overlap, even when workspace IDs differ. Runs with no services keep
their filesystem-free path.
- Derive a bounded ordinary alias closure. Lock every alias task and
lifecycle key. Reject foreign companies, changed membership, unproven
descendants, included Git metadata and other unresolved writer
obligations.
- Commit remote authority on the connection that holds source exclusion.
Refresh a stale selected local workspace after admission if migration
published remote authority. Publish activity after commit.
- Admit exact terminal native recovery sources under the existing
physical finalizer keys. Bind descriptors, allocations and owner
checkpoints to journaled fingerprints. Recheck them before capture and
publication.
- Add a separate company-scoped online entry for exact superseded
finalization receipts. Keep the offline entry's deployment prerequisites
and keep inventory read-only.
- Document the proof and the remaining Git/common-store extension. The
original files stay in place. No new scheduler, deployment action or
database migration is added.

## Verification

- Review found that the real reopen path could hold lifecycle exclusion
while waiting for a project source. The new actual nested-reopen
regression failed before the repair: lifecycle lock count was 1 while
another connection held the project fence. The repair acquires declared
and physical project sources before reconstruction and lifecycle. The
contention case, ordinary-fetch restore and runtime nested restore
passed. The lifecycle-worker restore first completed in 16.64 seconds
but exceeded its unchanged 15-second body limit; a bounded warm rerun
passed at that same limit. Both wrappers exited and completed cleanup.
The source type graph, module-boundary check and diff check pass. Final
7478 CI passed: 58 successful jobs, three skipped, one neutral and a
successful Snyk context. Fresh Greptile is 5/5 for exact7478, with no
unresolved threads. [Final
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42318150314/job/128240631573).

- Full CI on `e4283b3452` passed the other server, build and type
checks. One exposure owner case failed: two execution workspaces
received one preview pair after source admission serialized their
starts. The first local seven-case run reproduced that failure; adding
the owner argument alone did not change the hash payload. The completed
repair binds run-scoped reuse to its execution-workspace owner. All
seven existing real-process/fake-broker cases then passed in 13.81
seconds, with wrapper exit 0 and cleanup complete. Public scope IDs and
explicit project/agent sharing are unchanged. The final7478 head passed
all required CI and fresh review gates.

- The service/source/restore owner canary passed 25 cases across four
suites before the final no-service fast-path guard (41.33 seconds). This
includes actual project service processes with a different project ID
and no execution-workspace ID. Their startup waits for source ownership,
migration stays blocked while they run, and the source becomes eligible
after their verified stop. The final three-case runtime canary passed at
the final source inputs (18.70 seconds). It covers that fast path and
both service-CWD variants. Both wrappers exited 0 and completed cleanup.
- The boundary-repair canary passed 9 cases across four suites at
`7c18f1c170`. It covers the real rehome/conversion gateway, project
command provisioning, future task selection, stale imported authority,
foreign-company binding, and existing standalone filesystem callers. The
shared PostgreSQL wrapper exited 0 and completed cleanup. Duration:
94.15 seconds.
- The P1 diagnostic passed 46 cases across five suites at the pre-rebase
P1 revision. It covers the actual importer with an export warning
created by `recordNativeFinalizationFailure`, strict
prepared-source/action bindings, finalizer locks, source/lifecycle
races, unrelated remote execution, and bare Git with external
alternates. It uses the repository shared PostgreSQL wrapper,
`--fsModuleCache`, and a local-only 90-second hook allowance. Duration:
245.44 seconds. No product timeout changed.
- The canonical retained-directory compatibility check passed 22 cases
across two suites. Missing archived task directories still import from
authenticated restore points; they do not need a present-directory
source proof.
- Both initial P1 regressions were observed before the fix. The real
finalizer warning made the importer ineligible. The old archive owner
accepted a nested bare repository borrowing external objects. The new
cases pass and preserve the original warning, prepared descriptor,
allocations and files.
- Prior attempts remain non-passes: the first 23-case canary passed on
an earlier head; its exact-head rerun hit 30-second database
setup/cleanup limits. A read of the owned PostgreSQL server found a
template clone waiting on `DataFileExtend` for 58 seconds. A broader
owner run was intentionally interrupted during slow existing heartbeat
setup. One diagnostic invocation used an invalid CLI option and executed
no tests. A later review canary passed 21 cases and failed the new real
restore contention case: cwd-only admission missed the declared project
of an external worktree. Its fixture also omitted the required
file-repository authorization callback and produced an unhandled
rejection after the failed assertion. The repaired run passed 22 cases,
exited 0 and completed cleanup. These earlier failures are not reported
as passes.
- The recovery owner passed 37 PostgreSQL cases, including 14 new and 23
existing finalized-recovery cases. The operation reconciliation owner
passed 40 cases. The initial archive run passed 103 cases and found a
missing closed diagnostic entry; the corrected diagnostic and expanded
Git rejection cases pass in the P1 run.
- The full server type graph passes with the Runner source exports
mapped locally because this checkout has no built Runner declarations.
The latest module-boundary check and `git diff --check` pass. Standard
package build/typecheck and broad final-head regression coverage remain
required in CI.
- The initial CI exposed missing admission scopes for standalone
filesystem APIs and a changed foreign-company error. The latest repair
keeps those APIs independent of a database and holds physical fences at
their actual database-backed mutation owners. The branch also includes
the existing master fix for unchanged Runner default-model assertions.
New review findings and new-head CI are being checked.
- The local canary command and bounded source selection are documented
in `doc/plans/2026-11-06-online-ordinary-source-fence.md`. Source
observations only read data. A fresh bounded metadata probe found 254
pending legacy records and zero unsettled local-process services. No
live import, hold, cancellation, provider action or source filesystem
write was performed for this change.

## Risks

- Run-scoped reuse now includes execution-workspace ownership in its
private key. Explicit project/agent sharing keeps its previous identity.
- A missing writer owner could make a source proof unsafe. Admission
derives physical aliases, includes future project selection and retains
all existing source/lifecycle/finalizer locks. Unknown and changed state
fail closed.
- Cross-company physical alias checks use bounded minimal-path pages.
Lexical-prefix filtering cannot safely replace them because a symlink
can hide a foreign alias. Unknown paths or more than 10,240 foreign
records leave the source explicitly unproven. More than 1,000
same-company local records also fail closed.
- The project key can serialize local preparation within one project. A
first project waits; additional project acquisition fails on contention
to avoid a lock cycle. Remote authority keeps its remote preparation
path.
- Recovery preservation does not prove provider termination or
successful file recovery. Existing provider allocations, checkpoints,
task intent and recovery actions remain authoritative.
- This slice does not finish shared Git migration. Git
administrative/common-object/alternates closure and exact nested
imported-child coverage remain the next owned extension. No global
writers-stopped shortcut is used online.

DottaandPaperclip 7aced7a46c docs: restore task composer keyboard guidance (#19680)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and tasks.
> - Task composers have two keyboard modes.
> - The product guide explains these modes.
> - The routine feature merge removed that paragraph.
> - This pull request restores the paragraph beside the routine
guidance.
> - Readers can find both behaviors.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19128. This change addresses [the late documentation
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19128#discussion_r4492144137).

**Issue type**

Missing documentation.

**Where is the issue?**

The Task Management section in doc/PRODUCT.md.

**What's wrong?**

The routine feature merge removed the paragraph about Enter,
Shift+Enter, and the optional Command/Ctrl+Enter setting.

**Suggested fix**

Restore the exact paragraph from before the merge. Keep the routine
section.

## What Changed

- Restore five lines in doc/PRODUCT.md.
- Keep the routine responsibility section.

## Verification

- Final qualification at `c423853f51c2bb698a65c746ed5e32d084ef9046`:
[required CI
passed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42317059645/job/128236866986),
including typecheck, build, all test lanes, E2E, and verify. The
snapshot has 58 successful check runs, three conditional skips, one
neutral advisory job, and a successful legacy Snyk status. No pending or
failed checks remain. Greptile and Paperclip Review both score this
exact head 5/5; all review threads are resolved.

- A local content check confirms that the restored paragraph matches the
text before #19128. Current keyboard handling and the Experimental
setting still match the paragraph. Whitespace checks pass.
- Local `pnpm verify` could not start because the restored checkout
lacked its `tsx` dependency. The dependency-free selection command
completed with exit 2 because PRODUCT.md is a global input. Neither
attempt is represented as a test pass; the successful final CI supplies
that broader coverage.
- This restores documentation only. Runtime code, schema, and behavior
do not change. Review verified the source behavior and the removed
paragraph; no separate browser acceptance is claimed.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change restores existing product guidance.
- No runtime behavior or database change is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. The exact runtime model ID and context window are not exposed
in this session.

DottaandPaperclip a0ac81e114 fix(ui): show task image results in compact thumbnail grids (#19626)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Task feeds show agent messages, documents, and files in time order.
> - Each image currently uses a full feed card.
> - A turn with seven screenshots makes the conversation hard to scan.
> - This pull request groups adjacent images from the same run in a
compact grid.
> - Users can scan the results and open each image in the existing
gallery.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Image results in task history and the live task feed.

**Current behavior**

Each image uses a separate full-width card. Native image upload receipt
messages can also separate related screenshots.

**Proposed behavior**

Adjacent images from one run share a wrapping thumbnail grid. New image
results join the grid. Documents, video, and authored messages keep
their positions. The grid opens the existing gallery.

**Reason and benefit**

Users can see a batch of screenshots without scrolling past one large
card for each file.

**Breaking changes**

The feed layout changes. The stored comments, files, APIs, and
permissions do not change.

Related public work: Refs #17228. Refs #8785. Refs #7667. These changes
supplied the artifact cards and media gallery that this pull request
reuses.

## What Changed

- Add one image grouping function for settled history, turn history, and
live results. Group only images with the same known run. Keep the first
row key and each image key when results arrive.
- Add a token-based grid that reuses the media artifact cards and image
gallery.
- Add an optional typed attachment-preparation marker to file
registration and chat-file reuse. Preserve the marker through comment
normalization. Use it with matching image, author, and run links to hide
generated receipts. Keep the exact historical sentence as a fallback for
old receipts.
- Add nine production component stories with seven sample-account
screenshots. Cover mobile, Classic, mixed results, single images,
missing images, streaming, gallery navigation, and the complete feed
projection.
- Add grouping and production-feed regressions. Add 18 browser cases
across light and dark themes.
- Improve contrast for the shared fallback label and gallery counter
after the accessibility checks found low contrast.
- Match alternate original-image paths when opening the gallery. Keep a
separate Open original link beside Download in the gallery.
- Record the feed layout in DESIGN.md.

## Verification

- Final qualification at `09b12381ce85bee6593050bd8a2fa18cbe2c45a6`:
[required CI
passed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42317080212/job/128237094513),
including typecheck, build, all test lanes, E2E, and verify. The
snapshot has 58 successful check runs, three conditional skips, one
neutral advisory job, and a successful legacy Snyk status. No pending or
failed checks remain. Greptile and Paperclip Review both score this
exact head 5/5; all review threads are resolved.

- Current-head local checks: 544 focused UI tests passed across 11
files, with one existing skip. UI/shared typechecks and token gates
pass. All 18 focused Storybook browser cases passed after the CSS merge,
with retries disabled.
- Two database integration cases verify file registration and chat-file
reuse receipt markers. All 52 issue-validator tests and six upstream
default-model tests passed.
- Regressions failed before the fixes for unknown-run grouping, receipt
wording, and authored progress text with an image. The repair uses a
typed receipt marker and requires matching author, attachment, image,
and run links before hiding a generated receipt. All five review
findings are resolved.
- Browser checks cover loaded images, wrapping columns, overflow,
missing-image fallback, streaming stability, keyboard gallery
navigation, original-file links, and downloads. Fixtures use production
renderers. These checks do not prove deployed persistence or provider
behavior and do not compare visual baselines.
- Local limits: the preflight helper could not finish because Cargo was
absent. The earlier low-memory server typecheck and dependency-free
selector did not replace final-head CI. The now-passing final CI
supplies broad typecheck, build, server, Runner, and E2E coverage.
- Prior independent CI failures remain recorded: one Slack timer case
passed a single diagnosed rerun; its exact timer cause was not proved. A
later chat shard lost its self-hosted runner without a test assertion
failure. The current revision passes that shard and all applicable
gates. Master conflict resolution retained both image-grid and patch CSS
rules.

## Risks

- Images without a run ID remain separate. Messages and other resource
types end each batch.
- Receipt suppression requires a matching preparation marker or the
exact legacy sentence, plus matching attachment, image work product,
run, and author. Tests preserve human messages and native progress text
with attachments. The optional marker uses existing JSON metadata and
needs no database migration.
- Shared gallery and fallback text now have stronger contrast.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6, through Codex. The agent used reasoning, repository tools,
code execution, and browser tests. The runtime did not expose a more
specific model ID or context window size.

DottaandPaperclip 72f7b42fe3 Preserve settled failed controller state during online migration (#19678)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip controls agent work across web-server releases.
> - Volume-free servers need retained controller state in shared
storage.
> - Successful settled sources already support online migration.
> - Some retained failed sources have no accepted result and must stay
available for recovery inspection.
> - This change copies those sources under task, coordinator and
publication fences while unrelated work continues.
> - The original files, failed status and recovery warnings remain
unchanged.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19038. Refs #19631.

**What are you trying to improve?**
Preserve retained failed controller files without waiting for global
idle.

**What problem does this solve?**
The online producer skips terminal failed controllers. Their files can
still be needed for recovery inspection even when no accepted provider
artifact proves executable continuation.

**What would the improvement look like?**
A settled exact source can enter the existing encrypted archive store.
An accepted committed failed source can use the existing checkpoint
import. Busy, changed, unowned or foreign sources remain blocked.

## What Changed

- Add a source owner bound to the selected task session, run,
coordinator generation, admitted input and file digests.
- Check the task, physical finalizer lock, released coordinator,
canonical resume source and active related turns before upload and
before publication.
- Preserve failed sources through the existing encrypted archive format.
Do not treat archived bytes as execution authority or old-writer stop
proof.
- Allow the existing accepted committed checkpoint import for a finished
failed run without changing its status.
- Validate admitted input bindings before looking up local controller
files.
- Document the online preservation path and the final static writer
fence.

## Verification

- Real PostgreSQL: 125 cases passed across migration, controller
recovery and durable backup storage. One added assertion inspected an
unadmitted queued fixture; it was corrected while retaining the
queued-turn preservation and stale-publication assertions. The final
migration rerun passes 51/51; the other three affected suites pass
75/75.
- Genuine prepatch RED: online failed-source preservation and accepted
committed failed-source import both fail on the previous producer and
recovery owners.
- New cases cover independent restore after deleting the original
source, an expired but non-null coordinator owner, source mutation after
upload, a new related queued turn during upload, foreign input binding
and an accepted committed failed result.
- The full rebased server source and test-tree typecheck passes after
restoring its missing ignored workspace SDK link and building that
existing dependency.
- Module boundaries and whitespace checks pass.
- Rebased onto current master; both provider-artifact imports and the
new archive owner are preserved. Rebased type and module-boundary checks
pass. All six archive cases pass on the exact rebased head (39.68
seconds). All CI gates pass on exact head
81fc974cd9. Fresh Greptile review is 5/5
with no unresolved comments. No serving migration, deletion or
deployment is performed by this PR.

- Review memory fix: 64 KiB streamed hashes avoid retaining another
controller string at each publication fence. A 256 MiB source is hashed
three times while the original string remains live under a 512 MiB heap.
The old full-string comparison reproduces an OOM; the fixed two-case
suite passes. Full source/test-tree typecheck and module boundaries pass
on the new code. All six real-PostgreSQL archive cases pass again with
streaming enabled (17.31 seconds); ownership, queued-turn and
post-upload mutation guards remain covered.

## Risks

- This is a copy-only preservation operation. It does not prove the
original process has stopped. Final enrollment must arm static ephemeral
mode on the original volume, observe the old deployment stopped and
repeat data eligibility.
- A source change during upload leaves an unpublished pending object.
The normal retention owner handles obsolete attempts; the source remains
required until a verified current archive exists.
- An archive is forensic evidence. It does not make an unaccepted failed
provider result resumable.

## Model Used

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

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 8ed712f00a test(server): split workspace-recovery tests into seven feature files (#19664)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Contributors wait for PR CI before merge, so CI wall-clock time sets
the pace of work
> - PR CI runs the general server tests in 12 shards, and each shard
runs files in parallel on 4 workers
> - `server/src/services/workspace-recovery.test.ts` takes about 699
seconds in CI by itself. A file runs whole on one worker, so shard 2/12
takes 11.5 minutes (median) when the other shards take about 7 minutes
> - A different shard count cannot fix this, because the time of one
file sets the minimum time of its shard
> - This pull request splits the file into seven feature files with a
shared fixture
> - The benefit is that the shards can balance again. This removes about
2 minutes from the median PR CI time and about 5 minutes from the p90

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The time of the general server test shards in PR CI.

**Subsystem affected**

Server tests: workspace recovery
(`server/src/services/workspace-recovery*.test.ts`) and the
general-server shard weights.

**Current behavior**

One file holds 460 tests and takes about 699 seconds in CI. Its shard is
the slowest in most PR runs.

**Proposed behavior**

Seven files of about 60 to 140 seconds each. The shard partitioner
places them on different shards.

**Reason and benefit**

The general server shards finish close together. The PR CI critical path
becomes shorter.

**Breaking changes**

None. No product code changes.

## What Changed

- Split `server/src/services/workspace-recovery.test.ts` into seven
files by feature area:
  - `retry-copyback` (76 tests);
  - `preparation` (80);
  - `preparation-proof` (53);
  - `preparation-dispatch` (25);
  - `preparation-gates` (43);
  - `warm-handoff` (36);
  - `admission` (147).
- Add `server/src/services/workspace-recovery.test-fixture.ts` with the
shared hooks, `seed`, helpers and an embedded Postgres per file.
  - Test bodies, hooks and helpers are moved without change.
- Four lines that assigned the shared `db`, `root` or `connectionString`
now call `replaceFixtureState(...)`.
- `scripts/general-server-shard-durations.json`: replace the old key
with the seven new files. The weights divide the current CI cost of the
old file (636 seconds, master runs 42296943853 and 42294279748) in
proportion to measured local time. A `splitEstimates` entry records the
method, as for earlier splits.
- Update the file references in `doc/task-recovery.md` and
`maps/feature-map/recovery.md`.

## Verification

- `vitest list`, before and after: 136 declarations each, with identical
sorted names. At run time, 460 tests before and after.
- Each new file passes when run alone: 76, 80, 53, 25, 43, 36 and 147
tests.
- All seven files run together with `--maxWorkers=1`: 460/460 pass.
- A timing check of the original file:
- `afterEach` took 4.7 seconds in total and `beforeAll` 4.1 seconds, out
of about 1,000 seconds, so the teardown is not the cost;
  - most of the time is in three `it.each` blocks.
- Focused `tsc --noEmit` on the eight new files: clean.
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/run-vitest-stable-shard.test.mjs`:
39/39 pass.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs`: aligned.
- With the new weights, the 12-shard partition puts the seven files on
seven different shards.

## Risks

- The CI time of each new file is an estimate from local runs. If
`workspace-recovery-preparation.test.ts` takes more than about 150
seconds in CI, the next split point is the "keeps ancestor Retry held"
block.
- Each file starts its own embedded Postgres, which adds a few seconds
of setup per file.
- The optional external-database environment variables keep their old
behavior but were not tested. CI does not set them.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`) in Claude Code, with tool use and
code execution. A Claude sub-agent made the split, and the parent
session reviewed it and corrected the shard weights.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip d6f4155bad Refresh checkpoint writers when controller ownership changes (#19679)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and keeps their work attached to tasks.
> - Core saves native Runner checkpoints so a session can continue under
a later run.
> - The checkpoint records can still belong to source run A after run B
becomes the current owner.
> - The writer cache currently keeps A's first write authority even
after Core validates B.
> - This pull request renews that writer when the authority, boot,
generation, or lease owner changes.
> - Repeated registration under the same authority keeps its work
history. Stale and expired owners still cannot write.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #19611. Related: #19225.

**What happened?**

A checkpoint writer is cached by source run ID. After Core validates a
successor owner, a new registration still uses the cached writer for the
old owner. Saving new work can then fail with
`native_runner_checkpoint_owner_lost`.

**Expected behavior**

Use the validated current owner for later writes. Preserve the existing
writer when its authority has not changed. Continue to reject stale or
expired ownership.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Register a source checkpoint writer and save its first command.
2. Complete the source run and give its task to a successor with a
current write lease.
3. Register the same source checkpoint under the successor and save a
new command. The unchanged code rejects this write.

## What Changed

- Store the write-authority fields with each cached writer.
- Replace the writer only when its authority run, boot, controller
generation, or lease owner changes.
- Add a PostgreSQL regression for successor handover, repeated
registration, generation renewal, stale writes, and expired leases.

## Verification

- The new regression fails on base `913102870d` at the successor's
checkpoint write.
- The fixed regression passes: `cd server && node
../node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run
src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-checkpoint-authority.integration.test.ts`.
- A focused strict TypeScript check covers the source, regression, and
their imports.
- The maintained general-server selector includes the regression. It
needs no native process or new CI group.
- The scoped diff passes whitespace and changed-line secret/PII checks.
- Targeted database and focused strict TypeScript checks pass. Required
CI will supply full regression coverage.
- CI and standard review are pending for this draft.

## Risks

A renewed writer starts a new in-memory work history. The authority
comparison limits that reset to a real ownership change. Each database
write still checks the current lease and generation in its transaction.
This change adds no schema, API, or automatic session-release behavior.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 Sol (`gpt-6.1-sol`), high reasoning, with repository
inspection, code execution, and test tools.
