DottaandPaperclip 8548173fc9 feat(evals): connect hosted Runner costs and traces (#17889)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and measures their behavior with Runner
evaluations.
> - The cost controller, native tracing, private receipts and portable
runtime are on master.
> - The maintained live workflow still launches the provider CLI
directly.
> - Independent workers need one shared selection and disjoint budget
allocations.
> - Reports must keep unresolved allocations when a worker produces no
evidence.
> - This PR connects the maintained workflow to the existing controller
and private archive.
> - Operators can inspect known costs, conservative holds and trace
evidence before qualifying paid recurrence.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17452, #17469, #17493, #17506, #17523.

**Current behavior**

The live Runner workflow does not use the merged cost/tracing
controller. Attempt-only aggregation cannot reconstruct a campaign when
every worker archive is absent. Ordinary Actions artifacts in this
public repository are readable by authenticated public GitHub users.

**Proposed behavior**

Controlled runs prepare one manifest, bind every selected request,
enforce disjoint allocations and retain evidence in private storage. The
report starts from the full retained manifest. Missing workers keep
their allocations. The workflow rejects retries, unsupported providers,
changed requests and absent or stale operating bounds before provider
work.

**Reason and benefit**

The maintained workflow needs auditable costs and traces, including
failures and missing receipts, before paid recurrence can be qualified.

## What Changed

- Add controlled mode as the manual default and the only scheduled mode.
Legacy mode remains explicit for other manual provider qualifications.
- Prepare the full request selection and one shared manifest. Bind
current run, first attempt, code, definitions, executable hashes and
exact profile allocations.
- Verify the copied controller and manifest before provider credentials.
Require the controlled target to equal the trusted workflow revision
before private archive access.
- Reuse private archive retention for the controller policy, cell
attempts and canonical report. AWS credentials remain transfer-step
outputs. Controlled raw evidence is never uploaded as an Actions
artifact.
- Replay a retained manifest with partial or empty worker evidence.
Count operating holds once and preserve known partial charges.
- Pin the controller to an explicitly reviewed compatible lockfile
digest. Reject resolver or byte drift before a frozen, script-free
install into a job-local store. Record the lock digest in the runtime
receipt and verify it again in private preparation.
- Build the portable controller without secrets, private environment
access or OIDC. Private preparation verifies that artifact and performs
no dependency install. OIDC jobs use no mutable dependency resolution or
shared cache.
- Add synthetic source/copied-runtime tests, executable workflow
admission tests, private archive tests and an operator runbook.

## Verification

- Controller, campaign, portable runtime and workflow tests: 104 passed.
This includes real aggregation from an isolated reporter without source
dependencies, safe diagnostics, driver drift, distinct evidence binding
and reviewed-lock drift. Real private Codex/Claude requests also pass
through an independently verified copied runtime with fake transports.
- Private transport and workflow contracts: 35 passed. Executable/static
workflow guards: 13 passed.
- Paired private report tests: 166 passed; Evalbook discovery: 7 passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`, `actionlint
.github/workflows/runner-protocol-live-evals.yml` and `git diff
--check`: passed.
- `pnpm test:run` hit repeated local embedded PostgreSQL initialization
failures in unrelated DB-dependent server tests. Its owned process tree
was stopped after preserving the log. This is a local verification
limitation; current-head CI remains required.
- An earlier head hit one unchanged Rust cleanup assertion. The exact
test passed locally and the final head passed the full Rust lane; the
initial failure log is retained.
- On the final head, one unchanged chat idle-queue assertion failed once
in CI. Its single scoped retry passed. All test jobs and the final
aggregate gate passed on commit
`2e328fa53dd296174d59d19f14f068aeeb0b82d8` (CI run 40535692048, attempt
2).
- No paid model, Braintrust or cloud calls. No live variables, secrets,
schedules or resources changed.

## Risks

- Controlled mode fails closed until a reviewed
`RUNNER_PROTOCOL_EVAL_CONTROLLER_POLICY_JSON` and a compatible private
eval SHA exist. `all` does not silently become a supported subset.
- The reviewed policy must cover setup, model requests, trace/gateway
processing, archive transfer and retained storage. Hash binding does not
establish vendor billing bounds. This PR does not enable recurrence or
release historical holds.
- The controlled policy must pin `controllerLockSha256`; it never
accepts a resolver-generated digest automatically. No lockfile is
committed. A changed compatible lock needs review.
- Legacy browser verification now requires the committed frozen
lockfile. A stale lockfile fails closed; controlled preparation has no
dependency install.
- Workflow cancellation can prevent the final report. The full manifest
is retained before provider work and remains the starting point for
reconciliation.
- The workflow exceeds 1,000 lines because the shared shard anchor,
dependencies, environment expressions and credential boundaries belong
to one declarative job graph. Request preparation, accounting, archive
safety and runtime verification stay in separately tested modules.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6-based coding agent with tool use and code execution.
The host does not expose an exact deployment model ID or context-window
size.

DottaandPaperclip 3bd709df8b Operationalize Product E2E accounting, tracing, and scheduling (#17009)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and the work they perform.
> - Product E2E tests exercise real agents, tools, setup and cleanup.
> - Repeated runs need retained costs and traces, including failed
attempts.
> - A passing retry must not hide earlier spending or feedback.
> - Recurring work also needs admission limits, private reports and
failure detection.
> - This change supplies those controls while keeping paid activation
behind existing gates.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #16996 and #17158. This is the consolidated landing of the reviewed
eval operations stack: #17019, #17024, #17025, #17027, #17030, #17033,
#17035, #17038, #17043, #17044, #17048, #17050, #17051, #17092, #17096,
#17100, #17107, #17109, #17112, #17115, #17117, #17121, #17123, #17127,
#17130, #17133, #17134, #17137, #17140, #17143, #17154. The repository
permits squash merges only. A local rehearsal showed that squashing each
slice into master causes repeated conflicts in dependent slices. This PR
preserves their commits and lands their combined implementation in one
reviewed integration. Superseded slices will close after this merge.

## What Changed

- Retain every attempt's cost receipt, including setup, failures,
interruptions and retries. Separate reported amounts, estimates, missing
costs and reserved capacity in reports and dashboards.
- Add bounded request admission, exact model pricecards, gateway error
accounting, cache policy and reconciliation evidence. Refuse unsupported
routes and requests that cannot fit the allowance.
- Integrate Braintrust gateway traces and OTLP correlation, with secret
filtering and experiment imports. Record phase timing, including setup,
feedback capture and cleanup.
- Collect complaint and suggestion evidence after each attempt,
including recovery after failures. Retain explicit review dispositions
independently from the product grade.
- Add gated daily and weekly selections, measured forecasts,
setup/readiness checks, wall-time limits and retained monitor
notifications. Include declared non-model overhead in admission while
reporting the existing subscription separately.
- Keep recurring history private, bound uploads and retention, and use
isolated archive environments. Keep public publication an explicit
operation. Report and publication jobs install only the committed
lockfile, with scripts disabled and isolated stores; stale pins fail
closed.
- Integrate current master, preserve its Product E2E journey billing and
privacy checks, and test that shared setup receipts do not double-count
estimated agent usage. Preserve upstream fixture repairs.

## Verification

- Complete integration baseline
`0649a5ce7544ab20825c2183d2f421157db49f24` includes master
`a3e1d915a7110a4e115b46396a3f79e6dfb4d05e` and every original stack head
as ancestors.
- On that integration baseline, `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`: 4,012
Vitest tests passed, two skipped, across 193 files; all 137 Node
source-contract tests passed.
- Focused billing and Product E2E journey contract checks: 24 tests
passed. They cover estimates, unknown receipts, single-owner setup
costs, browser-only execution and private publication guards.
- Monitor and workflow wiring: all 96 Node tests passed. `node
scripts/check-token-gates.mjs`: all gates clean.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck` passes after the standard Runner
TypeScript build refreshed local declarations. The first attempt
rejected the new master `runner_prepared_launch` union member because
this checkout retained an older generated declaration; the source union
already contained that member.
- Current head `492b0708a1c531a023d9ac10f0f3dc6383cc1754` removes
dependency re-resolution from archive-authorized reporting jobs after
the security scan flagged it. All 15 workflow-security tests pass after
updating the old two-install assertion.
- Hosted [CI run
39965460180](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39965460180)
passes on the current repaired head, including typecheck, build, general
tests, Runner checks, browser shards and canary dry run. Greptile is 5/5
on this exact head with no unresolved threads. The security scan passes
after the fixed lockfile-resolution thread was resolved.
- Paperclip Review returned a terminal neutral check but an incomplete
0-file assessment on the repaired head: its platform blocked both diff
responses as prompt-injection content. This is not a successful code
review. No bypass or fabricated pass was attempted; current-head
Greptile, security and hosted CI are independent gates.
- No paid test, reservation release or recurring-run activation
accompanies this landing. Live route qualification and invoice
reconciliation remain separate evidence.

<details>
<summary>Retained earlier validation failures</summary>

Earlier broad local runs had two 15-second test timeouts (CLI poll
cadence and Retry validation), one embedded-database setup timeout, and
later PostgreSQL semaphore exhaustion. The exact timed-out tests passed
separately without larger timeouts; the broad-run causes were not
established. Those local failures remain distinct from subsequent hosted
CI results. The independent #17158 fix records its Muse fixture
collision, its UUID correction and hosted verification. Local Muse
execution was also blocked by macOS embedded-PostgreSQL startup. No
historical failure is treated as a successful paid qualification.

</details>

## Risks

- Admission is a local control, not a provider invoice cap. Missing
provider receipts or resource charges retain unknown amounts and holds;
estimates do not become billed dollars.
- The bounded path admits only documented local suites and provider
routes. Ordinary legacy or separate Runner protocol campaigns have
different controls. Merging this code does not qualify additional
routes.
- Recurrence still needs the existing enable gates and current
qualification/allowance evidence. Archive permissions and resources must
match the documented private-environment contract.
- Legacy reports may lack complete attempt or phase evidence. Reports
preserve that limitation and do not infer zero usage from missing data.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools and code
execution. The exact deployment variant and context-window size are not
exposed by this session.
