DottaandPaperclip 57e977be72 feat: integrate Pi 1.0 into the experimental Runner (#14921)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - The experimental Runner owns provider processes and durable
sessions.
> - Pi needs working task execution and human controls.
> - The five-PR stack must preserve changes already on master.
> - Each layer now carries the complete integrated source for a safe
sequential fallback.
> - This PR belongs to native GitHub stack #15602, ending at #14956.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14436, #14631, #14743 and #14956.

Ship Pi 1.0 through the experimental Paperclip Runner. The five PRs are
#14921, #14922, #14923, #14924 and #14956. The user authorized the
complete merge after checks pass. Existing `pi_local` execution is
unchanged. Accounting and wider provider/platform qualification remain
deferred.

## What Changed

- Recover missing final replies after workspace finalization changes
owners, using accepted-turn evidence without rerunning work or granting
external-chat publication.
- Preserve the admitted Pi instruction root across warm runs, while
retaining changed-root rejection.
- Give Pi a bounded 15-second default shutdown grace so stop, drain
acknowledgement and durable suspension can complete. Explicit deadlines
and other providers retain their existing behavior.
- Integrate the Pi 1.0 runtime and master contracts.
- Use Pi profile 22. Preserve explicit caller-selected models and exact
native thinking levels. Keep Pi's wrapper, helper, extension and
question/control behavior unchanged from the qualified profile-19
runtime.
- Preserve master's Dot lifecycle and consent fields, configured task
environment, status guards and current Codex/Claude dependency versions.
Cursor stays qualified. Copilot stays pending; profile 17 binds the
changed shared protocol validation sources.
- Exclude general AWS IAM credentials from Pi static/custom provider
bindings and selected task projections; preserve the provider-scoped
Bedrock bearer key. Profile 21 is retained as historical provenance.
Rust and cloud install probes use the current declaration.
- Patch bundled brace-expansion 5.0.9 to the exact official 5.0.12
payload. Pin the patch and complete runtime closures. Include the patch
in normal installed setup tooling. Keep the upstream Pi shrinkwrap as
provenance and permit only this exact security correction.
- Include current attestation files in the Docker build context. Keep
the repository lockfile unchanged from master. CI and private image
builds resolve manifest changes before their frozen installation.

## Verification

- Full local `pnpm -r typecheck` passes, including Runner Rust, server
and UI. Focused integration checks pass: 194 Runner
admission/environment tests, 63 profile/credential tests with one
expected skip, 152 Dot/UI configuration tests, and Pi transcript/notice
tests.
- Full local `pnpm build` passes on the final source.
- Fresh final-source checks pass: all 698 Rust workspace tests (32
binaries), 156 credential/profile/controller tests with one expected
skip, Runner TypeScript typecheck, and 20 package/setup/sandbox tests.
- The profile-21 Pi materializer passes on the native host with the
official pinned Node 24.21.0 and its npm. It verifies all 150 locked
packages, the patched dependency and the exact closure. Setup/package
bundle tests and UI token gates pass.
- The old hashes were reproduced for all three supported targets before
calculating the patched graph. New closure hashes are darwin-arm64
`282022db10150c6632b3444df421342e7d534bdf5d5fb1097a2e79d0625a2bcf`,
darwin-x64
`64e251e19009f755c0b04f73ce2138246faab71a961b0f13d75ebfcc34bef12e`, and
linux-x64
`713b1fdff42fb56a1518bdc084f181d70bee8ebadc3e4b1d76321ed9108c8410`.
Independent native platform execution is separate from graph identity
reproduction.
- Historical cloud qualification remains unchanged: all seven core cases
pass on shipping source `10dc43c9ec65d88c2f782d62afb296d09494f215`,
harness `1a4408a48cfb5a1f094a311141c257c92cd7a893`, image
`sha256:5b3a775b383591bda1b0c1889e509acc70ce7f37c53f09733c81d59037f02280`,
and accepted Sonnet 4.6/low fixture. All 215 canonical files and all
seven cleanup checks pass independent verification. These are profile-19
results and are not relabeled as fresh profile-22 runs.
- Current Pi digest:
`sha256:e92078bee3c23bec4100aa589013a44613d054cd686826534025d8019e9f39a9`.
[The readiness
plan](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/pi-production-readiness/doc/plans/2026-10-02-pi-production-readiness.md)
preserves campaign and failed-attempt provenance.
- Merge only after every PR's current-head CI and fresh review pass.
Linux CI covers the full suites, build and browser tests. The local
embedded Postgres API-authority suite cannot start on this macOS/Node 26
host, so Linux CI must confirm that suite.

### Fresh profile-22 core qualification — 2026-10-08

All seven accepted core cases pass canonically on Pi profile 22, with
`openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6` and native-confirmed low
thinking. This model is a fixture; production accepts the caller's
explicit Pi provider/model.

Runtime/install source: `3241a992f2a7703e59e97ed0fd3e5d6405de4401`.
Frozen accepted harness: `1a4408a48cfb5a1f094a311141c257c92cd7a893`.
Immutable cloud image:
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:506f22db7edd78f37c0c40bec1cc084af1850455026dbf467194bfbb8fcef141`.
Pi digest:
`sha256:e92078bee3c23bec4100aa589013a44613d054cd686826534025d8019e9f39a9`.

[Hosted Linux image and clean-install
verification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37868328023)
passes, including all 20 source-bound archives, normal CLI/Pi setup,
companion import and the production pack reader. This exact installation
source includes the latest master integration and the corrected Pi warm
instruction-root fence. Full local typecheck/build and current-head
hosted CI verify the final stack. All 13 focused real-root regressions
pass. The full local executor suite passed 662 tests; 15 database tests
could not start the Mac embedded PostgreSQL service. Hosted Linux CI
passes the full required verification and E2E checks. These fresh
results keep their own source identity; profile-19 results remain
historical.

All 215 canonical files (28714587 bytes) are independently
hash-verified. All seven cleanup grades pass, with no owned runtime
process or temporary root after each case. Automatic retries are zero.
The owned cloud host stopped normally after retention. The prior
profile-22 warm attempt remains failed and separately retained: archive
SHA-256
`1e54eba5ec72b50cee1534b23d1d1d4f21a090006b8a64501ba70db972abfde5`. Its
original canonical classification is preserved. Diagnosis reproduced a
product bug comparing an agent-files root against an unset
checkpoint-only field. The fix stores the admitted physical root
separately from the adopted per-run collection capability. The real-root
regression fails before the fix and passes afterward, including
rejection of a changed physical root. Fixture, grader, model and all
seven accepted case IDs are unchanged; this fresh campaign tests
final-reply publication after file registration first. The intermediate
restart attempt also remains failed and retained: archive SHA-256
`5dcaefdf1d17cf4cd54fd4cf810f45e736667392339b8ce7caf08bb4e225277f`. Its
original canonical classification is preserved. Pi resumed, wrote the
verified answer and completed its task; exact runner suspension was
proven, but idle stop consumed about 5.2s and left under 3s for the
drain acknowledgement. The Pi-only default shutdown grace is now 15s,
preserving a full 5s drain round trip and a finite suspension reserve.
Explicit caller deadlines, other provider defaults, literal drain
receipts and exact suspension identity checks remain unchanged. The
timing regression fails before this correction and passes afterward; all
18 focused settlement tests and Runner typecheck pass. The final-source
file attempt is also preserved as failed (`candidate_failure`), archive
SHA-256
`db6767b6773ea618997927ac77bdb005a5ac81492c7b9c0ffbc900449f829bc9`.
Native edit, validation, exact downloadable artifact and Done/succeeded
all passed, and the exact final reply was durably recorded. A workspace
recovery owner completed before the live heartbeat reached presentation,
leaving that reply absent from task chat. Recovery now materializes only
a completed final reply from the accepted turn of an ordinary internal
Done task, preserving issue/run/contract binding, suppression,
external-chat authorization and same-run deduplication. The database
regression covers the generated file-preparation receipt, suppression,
unapproved external continuation and replay. Server typecheck and all 49
response-selection tests pass; hosted Linux verifies the database
regression because embedded PostgreSQL cannot start on this Mac.

The delayed-final-answer database regression passes on [the final
root-source Linux server
shard](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37868262553/job/113628594152),
alongside 1,108 passing tests. The first root Runner shard had one
unchanged durable-resume test exceed its 5-second timeout; the identical
top-source shard and the isolated exact test passed. One rerun of that
failed job and its required aggregate passed without source or test
changes. The original failed job log and the single-rerun receipt remain
retained.

### October 9 merge verification

Current merge head: `5a8fe63512a7166aaef5cf50065a25008aa8b44b`. All
current-head checks pass, including `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`;
exact-head Greptile review is 5/5 with no unresolved threads. Current
master conflicts are resolved. The user authorized the maintainer
override of the code-owner review gate after these checks. The seven
retained live core cases remain bound to source
`3241a992f2a7703e59e97ed0fd3e5d6405de4401` and its recorded cloud image.

## Risks

- The security correction changes the dependency closure and profile
identity. Old sessions must reopen on the new profile. Exact identities
and credential bindings fail closed.
- The runner remains experimental and requires explicit selection.
Legacy Pi Local is unchanged. Caller model IDs pass through; the E2E
model is a fixture.
- Accounting and the broad platform/provider matrix remain deferred.
This merge does not publish a release or deploy a service.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex assisted with reasoning, repository
inspection, editing and tool use. The exact serving ID and context
window are not exposed in this session. Final live qualification uses Pi
1.0.0 with `openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6` and native-confirmed
low thinking.

DottaandPaperclip 2b688a8fe3 feat(connections): add verified MCP providers and setup fixes (#15621)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Apps give agents governed access to external tools.
> - Several provider MCP servers lacked a supported catalog entry or
failed during setup.
> - Real browser tests identified specific registration, session, and
form defects.
> - This pull request adds seven catalog entries and fixes the shared
paths used by eleven verified providers.
> - Users can connect these providers through the existing Apps flow and
control each action.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The Apps catalog and remote MCP setup, discovery, and action tester.

**Subsystem affected**

Shared app definitions, the server tool services, and the Apps UI.

**Current behavior**

Seven providers lack a catalog entry. Airtable can select an advertised
client-metadata flow that fails. Calendly rejects the registration name.
Tavily needs an initialized session before a call. Firecrawl exposes
invalid defaults for optional nested form objects. HTTPS setup can
display a callback that differs from the server callback.

**Proposed behavior**

Add Calendly, Exa, Firecrawl, GSC Wizard, Parallel Search, Tavily, and
Windsor.ai. Preserve Airtable, Linear, Make, and PostHog. Use reviewed
provider options through the shared MCP and OAuth paths. Display the
callback supplied by the server. Omit untouched optional object inputs.

**Reason and benefit**

Eleven providers passed bounded reads through the real Paperclip browser
action tester. This PR includes that verified set and its required
shared fixes. Unfinished providers remain outside this change. AgentMail
keeps its existing integration.

**Breaking changes**

No database migration. Existing OAuth credentials and action policies
keep their ownership and access rules. Airtable's reviewed method
re-registers a retained client-metadata binding through DCR. Tavily's
reviewed method initializes sessions before dispatch. The existing
customer, managed, and Vercel OAuth gateway paths now refresh on
upstream 401 and return `oauth_refreshed_retry_required` (409),
requiring an explicit caller retry. They do not replay the rejected call
automatically; the next invocation initializes a fresh credential-scoped
session when required.

Related catalog work: #15545. This branch preserves current master
catalog entries and does not add another Google Workspace integration.
Open and closed provider PRs and public MCP issues were searched. No
duplicate for this verified set was found. The change extends the
shipped Connected Apps roadmap item.

## What Changed

- Add seven catalog entries with official provider branding and reviewed
permissions.
- Update Airtable, Linear, and Make metadata and show Make in Apps.
- Add authoritative provider source overrides that use the existing
generation and review checks.
- Add the reviewed Airtable DCR option and compatible Calendly
registration names.
- Initialize Tavily sessions before discovery and calls, including
retained connections. Keep credential-scoped session caching and single
call dispatch.
- Use the server's callback URL in the OAuth setup UI.
- Omit untouched optional object defaults; keep supplied empty strings,
false, zero, and object values intact in the action tester, with strict
required-child validation.
- Require an explicit retry after OAuth refresh instead of replaying a
tools/call with missing session headers.
- Record all eleven successful reads, write policies, auth-method
limits, and qualification caveats. Omit credentials and private account
data.
- Find chat connector cards through catalog search in browser tests, so
pagination does not hide Slack or other later entries.

## Verification

- Real browser qualification: eleven bounded reads passed. Catalog
refresh and reload proof are recorded in
`doc/connections/verified-mcp-qualification-2026-10-08.md`.
- Provider writes and actual agent-adapter sessions were not run.
Alternative documented auth methods and expiry refresh remain
unqualified.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- Focused shared/catalog tests: 41 passed. Source override tests: 3
passed. Catalog regeneration fixture suite: 9 passed. Latest form
regression suites: 31 passed. Gateway suite: 38 passed. Other focused UI
suites passed before these last fixes.
- UI token gates and both token sync checks: passed.
- The catalog regeneration fixture includes the authoritative provider
overrides; its full suite passes. The focused OAuth socket case passed
on isolated rerun.
- Complete local UI suite: 7,866 passed. CLI suite: 511 passed, 6
skipped. Complete shared suite: 892 passed.
- The unchanged AgentMail/ClickUp discovery fallback suite passes all 45
cases. An OpenAI login test passed on isolated rerun.
- Local broad database coverage is limited by macOS PostgreSQL
shared-memory exhaustion (`shmget: No space left on device`, not disk
space). The broad run was interrupted after diagnosis; no host settings
or other running services were changed.
- CI found that the Slack browser test assumed its catalog card was on
the first page. The test now uses catalog search; the Slack case passes
locally. Adjacent GitHub and iMessage cases could not start locally
because embedded PostgreSQL initialization failed before browser
assertions.
- Final commit
[`febe4520e`](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/commit/febe4520e13d4b3a4121eafc3d22540c2b11379d):
all 54 checks passed, with none pending or failed. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37847182065)
passed typecheck, build, all general and serialized test suites, all
eight browser shards, runner checks, canary dry run, and the aggregate
verification gate.
- Greptile reviewed that exact final commit at 2026-10-08 21:33 UTC and
returned 5/5 with no outstanding findings or unresolved threads.
- PR UI preview against the existing local test server: Calendly
catalog/setup observed; Firecrawl read passed after expanding More
options with nested optional inputs untouched. This retest proves
frontend behavior, not the revised OAuth backend against a live
provider.

## Risks

- Provider registration and consent behavior can change. Airtable's DCR
option is explicit and keeps the existing issuer, resource, redirect,
and PKCE checks.
- Tavily uses initialized sessions without automatic call retries. After
a successful OAuth refresh following 401, callers now receive a
retry-required result. A later explicit retry can still require
reauthorization if the provider rejects the refreshed token. Provider
writes are not live-qualified.
- Optional object cleanup affects the shared action tester. Regression
tests cover absent objects, required children, defaults, and populated
values.
- GSC Wizard's underlying Google data scopes and Google flow completion
were not independently verified. Its account reported paid/trial
metadata of unknown origin. No purchase was performed.
- No database migration, new AgentMail integration, or change to
existing action grants is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex assisted with implementation, research, tool
use, and code execution. The root backend model ID and context window
are not exposed in this session. The cheaper subagents used OpenAI
`gpt-6-luna`. No model context size is inferred.

Devin Foley 53105d5830 feat(apps): add Gauge connection (#15596)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents reach external services through the Apps catalog. Each
catalog entry is a reviewed `AppDefinition` that connects a provider's
hosted MCP server to Paperclip's shared vault, grants, policies,
gateway, and audit trail.
> - Gauge (`withgauge.com`) measures how AI answer engines mention and
cite a brand. Its hosted MCP server also gives SEO, analytics and ads
reports, and runs a content pipeline that can publish to a connected
CMS.
> - Gauge is not in the catalog. Operators must use the generic "Connect
your own MCP server" flow. That flow has no branding, no organization
guidance, and no warning about live CMS publishing.
> - The connector playbook supports this provider with existing
definition fields. The server supports dynamic client registration with
a reviewed `mcp` scope, and it accepts an organization API key as a
bearer header.
> - This pull request adds the Gauge definition, its artwork, the
research and permission-review ledger rows, documentation, and
deterministic tests.
> - The benefit is a branded, governed Gauge connection with browser
sign-in, an API-key option, and a clear publish warning.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Marketing and growth teams use Gauge to track their brand in AI answers
and to run content workflows. They want their Paperclip agents to read
visibility, keyword and traffic data, and to prepare content. Gauge is
not in the Apps catalog. Operators must paste the MCP URL into the
generic remote-MCP flow, which gives no branding, no method guidance,
and no warning that content tools can publish live.

**Proposed solution**

Add a catalog-only Gauge connection built from the connector playbook.
Browser sign-in uses Gauge's dynamic client registration and requests
only the reviewed `mcp` scope. The user selects one Gauge organization
on the consent screen. An optional method sends a customer-created
organization API key as an `Authorization: Bearer` header. Both methods
warn the operator to set publish actions to Ask first. Every discovered
tool stays governed by the normal per-action policies.

**Alternatives considered**

A plugin was not needed because no custom UI, tables, workers, or
webhooks are involved. The identity scopes that Gauge also advertises
(`openid`, `profile`, `email`, `organizations`) are not requested,
because Gauge selects the organization on its consent screen. A
Gauge-specific `classifyRisk` rule was not added, because the tool names
cannot be seen without an account. The generic rule already classifies
`publish`, `create` and `update` tools as writes.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing self-serve remote-MCP connection catalog and
does not overlap planned core work.

## What Changed

- Added the `gauge` provider to `scripts/ingest-app-definitions.mjs`
(category `analytics`, API-key placement, guidance, warnings,
description) and regenerated
`packages/shared/src/app-definitions/gauge.json` and the generated
registry.
- Added the Gauge row to the self-serve MCP research ledger with
`dcr_or_api_key` auth and risk tier S3.
- Added permission reviews for `gauge/mcp-oauth` (explicit scope `mcp`,
from Gauge's live authorization-server metadata) and `gauge/mcp-api-key`
(provider key), with evidence links.
- Added Gauge's mark (`ui/public/brands/apps/gauge.png`, the avatar of
Gauge's official GitHub organization) and the brand manifest entry.
- Added gallery copy for the Gauge card.
- Added `doc/connections/GAUGE.md` (endpoints, scopes, administrator
setup, capabilities and policy, manifest, brand provenance, validation
hook) and linked it from the connections README and the permission
audit.
- Tests: Gauge definition shape, store visibility and artwork, URL
recognition, reviewed scope, bearer-header placement, the connect form's
sign-in default and API-key gating, and the pinned catalog counts.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/app-definitions.test.ts
packages/shared/src/app-definitions-url.test.ts
ui/src/pages/apps/AppsConnect.test.tsx ui/src/pages/apps/Browse.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/app-brand-assets.test.ts
ui/src/pages/apps/AppLogo.brand-assets.test.tsx
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts` — 738 passed.
- `node scripts/check-app-brand-assets.mjs` and `node --test
scripts/app-brand-validation.test.mjs` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`, `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck`, `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
typecheck` — clean.
- `node scripts/ingest-app-definitions.mjs --definitions-only` produces
no Gauge drift.
- Manual: on a local instance, open Apps → Browse and confirm the Gauge
card and icon. Open `/apps/connect?source=gauge` and confirm that
sign-in is the default and that the API-key method is under Advanced.
- Live metadata probe on 2026-10-08: an unauthenticated `initialize` on
`https://app.withgauge.com/mcp` returns 401 with `resource_metadata`.
Both `.well-known` documents return the recorded endpoints and scopes.
Dynamic client registration succeeds. The authorize endpoint accepts
`scope=mcp` and rejects an unknown scope with HTTP 400.

## Risks

- Low risk to existing providers: the change is additive catalog data
plus tests. The generated registry only gains one import.
- Gauge content tools can publish to a connected CMS, including live,
and a bulk keyword update replaces each prompt's keyword list. Both
methods warn the operator, and the API-key helper text tells operators
to set publish actions to Ask first.
- Gauge API keys are not scoped and reach the whole organization.
Paperclip cannot narrow an issued key.
- The permission-review ledger records live proof for both methods as
not run. The lifecycle checklist in `doc/connections/GAUGE.md` still
needs a documented pass with a Gauge organization.

DottaandPaperclip d6df12cef6 fix(ui): add icons to chat connection choices (#15574)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connectors let people chat with agents and let agents use external
tools.
> - Slack setup asks the user to choose between those two uses.
> - Both choices currently use text alone.
> - This pull request adds an agent avatar and a hammer to the shared
chooser.
> - The icons help users identify each choice at a glance.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The chat-or-tools choice in connector setup. Related setup work: Refs
#15413.

**Subsystem affected**

ui/ — React board UI and Storybook.

**Current behavior**

Both choice cards show a title and description with no identity icon.

**Proposed behavior**

Show the existing agent avatar beside chat. Show a hammer beside tools.
Align both icons and keep the existing navigation.

**Reason and benefit**

Users can tell the two choices apart with less reading.

**Breaking changes**

None. The shared chooser applies the icons wherever that choice appears.
Only Slack currently offers both paths in the catalog. Other chat-only
providers keep their direct setup path.

## What Changed

- Add the shared agent avatar to the chat choice.
- Add a decorative hammer icon to the tools choice.
- Add desktop and mobile Storybook stories that render the production
page.

## Verification

- Token gates pass.
- Focused catalog, routing, and UI contract tests pass, including the
new chooser accessibility and navigation test.
- Checked the production chooser in Storybook at desktop and mobile
widths.
- Local repository typecheck, build, and Storybook build pass.
- All 56 checks pass on commit
`0f0673f1bb5cd340084f3a5229983da049f1c8db`, including the full CI test
suite and browser shards. Greptile reports 5/5 with no findings.
- Started the full local test command. Stopped that duplicate run after
the full CI suite passed. The focused local tests completed
successfully.
- In Storybook, open Connections → Slack → Automatic setup → 00 · Choose
connection. The mobile variant is in the same group.

## Risks

Low risk. This changes card layout and decorative images. Existing
button text, click handlers, credentials, and permissions stay the same.
The avatar is generic because the user has not selected an agent yet.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. Used code inspection, edits, shell tools,
and browser tools. The session does not expose the exact runtime model
ID or context window size.

DottaandPaperclip d66acb7ac1 feat: automate Slack bot app setup and installation (#15413)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Chat connectors give each agent a customer-owned bot and task-backed
conversations.
> - Manual Slack setup requires app creation and copying durable
credentials.
> - Operators need a shorter setup that an assisting agent can use
safely.
> - This pull request creates the app through Slack's Manifest API and
installs it through OAuth.
> - Durable registration state supports recovery without creating
another app.
> - A four-screen wizard, automatic avatar upload, and OAuth account
linking reduce setup work.
> - Connector settings and per-turn tool guidance support daily use
after installation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Native Slack bot setup, company secret storage, chat connector
management, and agent tool guidance.

**Problem or motivation**

New Slack bots require manual app creation and copying a signing secret
and bot token. Interrupted setup can create duplicate apps. The setup
and management screens contain unnecessary controls. Agents also need
guidance for native questions, files, thread replies, and governed Slack
actions.

**Proposed solution**

Use a temporary app-configuration access token to create a
customer-owned app. Save durable secrets in the vault. Bind OAuth to the
initiating actor, company, endpoint, registration revision, scopes, and
configured origins. Preserve manual and existing-app recovery. Link the
installing user's account, send a welcome DM, and advance from saved
server evidence. Keep request-URL recovery instructions available if
automatic connection detection waits.

**Alternatives considered**

The Slack CLI adds installation requirements. Socket Mode changes
transport. A shared Paperclip-owned app changes app ownership. These
alternatives are outside this change.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends existing chat connectors and secrets capabilities. Related
public work: #14037 and #13954 cover Slack MCP prerequisites and user
OAuth. No duplicate bot-registration PR was found.

## What Changed

- Share one reviewed manifest builder between automatic registration and
manual setup.
- Add replay-safe migration 0318 and company-bound registration state
with vault references and uncertain-creation recovery.
- Add registration, installation, callback, and resume APIs with
short-lived, single-use OAuth state.
- Save installation credentials before downstream checks and preserve
bot identity constraints.
- Reduce automatic setup to four screens. Keep advanced app details,
manual recovery, and existing-app setup.
- Upload the agent avatar with the Paperclip dark background. Link the
OAuth installer's account and send setup DMs.
- Show agent and connector-owner avatars. Simplify settings, access, and
conversation screens.
- Discover joined Slack channels and enable them by default. Start a
task from a bare mention and admit same-thread follow-ups.
- Refresh Slack tool guidance each turn. Add native-form, file,
approval, and delivery regressions plus manual model probe definitions
and sanitized acceptance records.
- Update deployment/database docs, OpenAPI, redaction, removal cleanup,
production Storybook stories, and provider browser tests.
- Merge current master and move the registration migration after its
latest migration without rewriting published commits.

The completed Slack success view intentionally has a single centered
**Done** action and no **Save & exit**, as explicitly requested by the
product owner. `DESIGN.md` records this exception; unfinished setup
steps retain the aligned wizard footer.

## Verification

- Passed after the master merge: repository typecheck, full build,
Storybook build, design-token gates, module-boundary gates, and
migration generation.
- Passed: all 352 focused Slack deterministic tests and all 14 affected
provider browser tests. Browser tests use controlled provider fixtures
and a separate throwaway instance.
- Passed on current head `c5d01e0e2`: the complete GitHub test matrix
(general server, chat, all workspaces, serialized server, and Runner),
all eight browser shards, typecheck/release registry, build, canary dry
run, security checks, and policy gates. There are 52 passing checks and
no pending or failing checks.
- Greptile completed on the exact current head with 5/5 and no
actionable findings or open review threads.
- Local repair verification passed 93 focused tests, including same-app
reinstall after revocation and rejection of consent started before
revocation, the AgentMail browser journey, and repository typecheck.
Local build and Storybook build also passed. The redundant local
full-suite rerun was stopped after the complete current-head CI matrix
passed.
- Real Slack setup and agent replies were exercised in the authorized
isolated test drive during the setup iteration.
- The ten additional model probes were attempted with legacy
`codex_local`, `gpt-5.6-sol`: five passed, two failed, and three were
partly verified. Native runtime is not qualified. See
`server/src/services/connectors/slack/evals/2026-10-08-acceptance.md`
for evidence and limits.
- Passing model probes cover native forms, downloaded file bytes, bare
mentions with thread replies, explicit posts/reactions, and saved
approval denial.
- The controlled uncertain-write probe found wrong delivery-check IDs.
The canvas fallback attempt used an invented tool name. Search
pagination/native search, a private-source denied-tool receipt, and
distinct board/webhook origins remain unqualified.

Reviewer path: enable Chat connectors, start Slack chat setup, select an
agent, enter an app-configuration access token, and approve Slack
installation. Send a message to the bot and confirm that setup advances
to success. Inspect settings and allowed channels. See
`doc/connections/SLACK-AUTOMATIC-SETUP.md` for deployment and recovery.

## Risks

- Slack app creation has no provider idempotency guarantee. A timeout
after dispatch stays uncertain until the operator checks Slack.
- OAuth needs a stable public HTTPS board origin. Webhook ingress may
use a separate configured HTTPS origin. Workspace policy can delay
installation.
- Migration 0318 can replay safely on instances that applied the earlier
development migration.
- OAuth installation now links the installer to the initiating Paperclip
user. Identity checks and company access rules still apply.
- Joined channels now enable bot responses by default. Linked-user
authorization and per-action approval rules still apply.
- Model behavior has the documented delivery-check and canvas fallback
failures. A passing CI run does not establish that every model probe
passed.
- Removing the connection does not delete the customer's Slack app. No
new first-party telemetry is added.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser verification. The runtime does not expose a more
specific authoring model ID or context-window size. The live bot probes
used OpenAI `gpt-5.6-sol` through `codex_local` in legacy mode.

DottaandPaperclip dd777f4b73 feat(dot): complete onboarding and expand governed Runner capabilities (#15414)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents, their work, and their permissions.
> - Paperclip Runner supplies the same admitted tool authority to each
provider.
> - The Dot provider in #15402 needs reliable onboarding and useful
agent capabilities.
> - An idle Dot could not start work, assign a human, read skills, or
produce a workspace artifact.
> - Pairing also relied on a second configuration save before ordinary
admission could work.
> - This pull request adds governed idle admission and shared Runner
tools, and completes pairing atomically.
> - Operators can test Dot with fresh data while keeping normal company,
approval, budget, and run ownership checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Paperclip Runner, dedicated Dot MCP access, OAuth onboarding,
experimental settings, and empty worktree startup. This PR builds on
merged provider PR #15402. It reuses the merged MCP gateway from #14846
and assistant connection work from #14933 and #15380.

**Problem or motivation**

An idle Dot could see assignments but could not act on a conversation
request until someone created a task first. Its Runner catalog could not
assign tasks to humans or read pinned skills and workspace files.
First-time OAuth discovery and pairing also needed browser fixes, and a
completed pairing did not persist its binding reference on the agent.

**Proposed solution**

Keep Dot within the existing Runner. Admit a visible agent-authored
intake task for idle requests. Add people, human assignment, cross-task,
skill, and optional sandbox workspace tools through shared authority.
Relay assigned app calls through the configured MCP gateway. Add lease
renewal and follow-up references. Save pairing and its configuration
revision atomically. Show prerequisites and provide a complete copy
prompt.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the experimental provider in #15402. It uses the existing
governed gateway, task model, skills, artifact path, and native Runner.
It adds no separate execution subsystem.

## What Changed

- Add a standalone OpenAI Dot agent choice with an independent
experimental opt-in. It works with the general Runner option off.
Require Assistant connections (MCP), authenticated sign-in, and public
HTTPS for pairing.
- Use Dot’s own option for company package import. Allow an unpaired Dot
configuration to save after external billing acknowledgement; task
admission still requires pairing. Prepare the shared dev binary for
Dot-only opt-in.
- Label saved Dot agents as OpenAI Dot. Use prerequisite-check copy in
setup and runtime configuration.
- Route Dot creation directly to pairing after explicit external billing
acknowledgement. Hide local CLI, model, and harness setup for Dot.
Preserve the shared Runner implementation and canonical API type. Other
Runner providers still require their general opt-in.
- Add an empty worktree option with fresh signing keys and no production
data copy.
- Fix public-client OAuth negotiation, discovery compatibility, and
optional separate browser authorization origin.
- Add one-use pairing consent preview, clear copied setup instructions,
and atomic binding persistence and cleanup.
- Add idle request admission with stable request IDs and normal
scheduling, permissions, budgets, and task ownership.
- Add identity and people discovery, human task assignment and
reassignment, and authorized cross-task comments and documents.
- Read assigned skill files from pinned manifests. Relay assigned app
calls through the merged gateway without exposing credentials.
- Add an off-by-default workspace bridge. Constrain paths and writes.
Run commands in a deny-by-default OS sandbox with no network or injected
credentials. Reserve mutations before effects and never blindly repeat
uncertain work.
- Add rolling lease renewal, task pagination, bounded operation limits,
and deduplicated follow-up references without comment bodies in
webhooks.
- Add an off-by-default attachment reading setting. Restrict reads to
files on the current assigned task. Verify size and hash, cache bounded
verified copies per run, paginate text or binary bytes, and recheck live
authority before returning.
- Keep file grants operator-owned. Reject agent self-grants across
configuration routes. Preserve attachment consent in create/import
forms. Close generic API file bypasses while retaining current-run
response snapshots and permitted uploads.
- Keep provider limits explicit. Do not inherit a Dot binding,
attachment permission, or workspace permission when hiring another
agent.
- Include the required Markdown format in cross-task document writes and
validate the API title limit. Verify real creation and revision
persistence.
- Restrict command execution to Linux bubblewrap with descendant
containment. macOS retains workspace file tools and artifact publishing,
while refusing command calls. Explain the platform limit in setup.
- Exclude Paperclip instance state from workspace files, uploads,
artifact publication, and sandbox commands. Protect nested directories
and case variants. Fail closed when the directory protection scan
exceeds 4,096 directories.
- Add static UI compression for slow public tunnels. Document setup, the
complete tool inventory, and qualification limits.

## Verification

- Merge preparation on `00ca2c75b` integrates merged base #15402 and
master `fc6304dfe`. The ancestry commit preserves the reviewed follow-up
source tree. The subsequent security fix excludes instance state from
file tools, uploads, artifact publication, and sandbox commands. It
preserves private task authorization and task monitors. It regenerates
the combined tool catalog, seeded catalog digest, and protocol manifest.
Workspace typecheck, full build, and UI token gates pass. All sixteen
real Dot broker cases and 93 company import cases pass after the review
fixes and creator-attribution test correction. The exported
human-assignment catalog and Unicode page boundaries are also fixed. All
ten catalog tests and nine workspace/skill bridge tests pass. All 35
workspace bridge and authority tests passed after the instance-state
fix, including real macOS commands in that intermediate version. The
subsequent document and descendant-containment fixes pass 44 focused
tests across bridge, authority, and setup UI, with six Linux command
cases skipped on macOS. Real cross-task documents pass the route
validator and persist two revisions. macOS refuses command execution and
does not advertise the tool. Full workspace typecheck and build, changed
server/UI typechecks, and token gates pass again on the final commit.
Greptile rates final head 00ca2c75b 5/5 and its completed check
concludes success; all review threads are resolved. All 58 current-head
checks are complete: 54 passed and 4 intentionally skipped. This
includes full tests, typecheck, build, Runner, browser E2E, release
verification, and Canary Dry Run. The older full local root attempt
finished with 16,602 passes, 93 skips, and ten failures across two
suites: it began before source edits and retained earlier imported
implementations while loading later tests. Both suites pass a clean
final-head rerun (25 passed, six Linux-only command cases skipped on
macOS). This mixed-source full attempt is not a final-head full-suite
pass; use the fresh CI evidence below.
- Full workspace typecheck and build pass for the standalone Dot change
on head `392d54f80`. UI token gates are clean. The full workspace
typecheck passed before the final importer UI edit; the changed UI
typecheck, build, and token gates pass again on the final commit. The
server build passes for its unchanged final source.
- Standalone selection, creation, settings, harness visibility,
inventory, and runtime admission checks pass. OAuth onboarding and the
real Rust/PostgreSQL broker suite pass 27 cases with the general Runner
option disabled. Dot and MCP revocation still block pairing; other
Runner providers remain disabled. Create, hire, conversion, and
inherited-hire route regressions pass 68 cases. The runtime selection
suite passes 20 cases. The setup UI suite passes 50 cases. Company
import and dev binary checks pass 97 cases. Import UI checks pass 29
cases, including Dot-only selection, preservation of imported Dot
agents, generic Runner fallback, canonical configuration serialization,
and required billing acknowledgement. A read of the synthetic instance
reports the native binary required with Dot enabled, the general rollout
disabled, and no persisted native work.
- The latest attachment, operator-consent, generic API file-guard, and
bridge checks pass 80 tests. Cache and native lifecycle checks pass 550
tests; create/import builders pass 45 tests; attachment setup UI checks
pass 16 tests. The real Rust/PostgreSQL Dot broker suite passes 15
cases.
- Earlier authority, human assignment, pinned skill, confinement,
cancellation, inheritance, onboarding, replay, OpenAPI, and gateway
regressions pass their focused rechecks. Workspace writes reject
concurrent stale hashes.
- In the live empty test-drive, turn the general Runner option off and
leave Dot and MCP on. Add agent shows a separate OpenAI Dot choice.
Create rejects missing billing acknowledgement, saves the canonical Dot
configuration, and opens pairing. The existing paired Dot remains ready
and passes its prerequisite checks. No new plugin pairing was needed for
this UI change. The final browser import preview keeps a Dot source
agent as OpenAI Dot, falls back a generic Runner agent while its switch
is off, and offers Dot independently.
- Real Dot completed OAuth, signed MCP Events readiness, and an
event-only assigned document task in an empty synthetic instance.
Pairing saved its binding without a second configuration save.
- Real Dot verified human assignment, cross-task comments and documents,
pinned skill reading, sandbox commands, lease renewal, follow-up input,
and a downloaded artifact whose bytes and hash matched its receipt. An
idle conversation request created an intake, created a task for its
human owner, continued after a definite missing-file read error, and
finalized Done with exit code 0.
- After operator approval, real Dot read a synthetic assigned-task
attachment and wrote its file-only random proof into an agent-authored
document. Its first test required accepting review because the existing
document tool removed the final newline.
- On head `2626c8f9b`, real Dot read a 13,849-byte synthetic attachment
in two pages, used `expectedSha256` on page two, saved exactly its final
random marker, verified readback, and finalized Done with exit code 0. A
direct inbox check was required for this attachment qualification; it
does not claim event-only delivery.
- Previous head `392d54f80` passes all 55 checks (53 passed, two
intentionally skipped), including the full test, typecheck, build,
native Runner, browser, and release verification gates. Greptile rates
this head 5/5; all review threads are resolved.
- Head `2626c8f9b` passed all 56 checks: 54 passed and two intentionally
skipped. This includes full typecheck, build, native Runner, server
tests, serialized suites, browser E2E, and Canary Dry Run. The unchanged
Cursor managed-runtime test exceeded its five-second deadline on the
first attempt; its focused local suite passed all eight cases, and the
single CI rerun plus dependent verify gate passed.
- A prior full local serial test attempt reported 19 failures (16,141
passed, 88 skipped) and stopped before later wrapper groups. It began
before the final source edits. Every failed suite has a passing fresh
recheck; the macOS snapshot stress case passes alone in 227 seconds. The
previous head `000fb9261` passed all 56 CI checks. PRs leave
`pnpm-lock.yaml` unchanged; CI and the refresh bot own dependency
resolution.

## Risks

- Dot remains off by default. Its own opt-in does not enable other
Runner providers. It still requires the MCP option; disabling Dot blocks
new work while keeping existing recovery and saved bindings.
- Dot requires a stable public HTTPS origin. Its base provider in #15402
is merged. Temporary tunnels are useful for testing but are not
permanent deployments.
- Idle intake creates a visible agent-authored task. It does not
fabricate a human message or bypass ordinary admission.
- Workspace commands require Linux bubblewrap with a private PID
namespace; deployment qualification is still needed. macOS file tools
and artifact publishing remain available, but commands are disabled
because sandbox-exec does not contain detached descendants. There is no
unrestricted fallback. Command protection fails closed above 4,096
workspace directories. The historical macOS command walkthrough does not
qualify the current Linux implementation.
- Provider model choice, token usage, cost, native thread control, and
global external stopping remain unavailable. Known Paperclip budget
gates still apply.
- The workspace bridge and attachment reader are separate opt-in
settings. Reading assigned task files sends their contents to OpenAI.
Revocation prevents future reads but cannot withdraw bytes already sent.
Files are read on request; automatic inbound attachment staging remains
disabled.
- An existing event registration can retain earlier instructions that
prohibit extra tasks. Dot asked for permission before a second intake
after the final event-only bootstrap; that extra no-nudge continuation
is not live-qualified under that earlier registration. The later
attachment qualification submitted normally through the composer. The
revised onboarding prompt describes the new idle entry point, and its
protocol polling path is tested.
- OpenAI event delivery can be delayed; a webhook acknowledgement is not
proof that Dot has begun work.
- A running Dot can retain an old plugin catalog after tool refresh.
Refresh and actual tool exposure must be checked before using new
top-level actions.
- Hosted and remote controller modes are not qualified.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The exact deployment ID and context window
size are not exposed in this session. Capabilities used: reasoning,
repository editing, code execution, test inspection, and browser
control.

DottaandPaperclip fc6304dfe5 feat(runner): add experimental OpenAI Dot provider over MCP Events (#15402)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents, tasks, permissions, and execution
budgets.
> - Paperclip Runner gives each provider the same admitted task and tool
authority.
> - OpenAI Dot runs outside the local process tree and needs
asynchronous work delivery.
> - The merged MCP gateway supplies OAuth consent and signed event
delivery.
> - A personal assistant grant cannot safely stand in for an assigned
agent.
> - This pull request adds a separate Dot agent connection and a durable
Rust Runner bridge.
> - The operator can assign work to Dot and inspect its accepted work,
tool receipts, and result.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Agent or provider**

OpenAI Dot, as an experimental provider of the existing Paperclip Runner
adapter.

**Why this adapter is useful**

An operator can assign normal Paperclip tasks to an existing Dot. Dot
can read its mailbox, request work on an assigned task, use admitted
task tools, and submit a result. Paperclip keeps company scope,
checkout, approvals, known budget limits, and activity attribution.

**How the agent is invoked**

A dedicated `/mcp/runner` OAuth resource pairs one Dot grant with one
agent. A signed MCP mailbox event wakes Dot. Dot explicitly accepts the
assignment. The Rust Runner owns the durable turn and operation
receipts. The first release supports self-hosted instances with a local
Runner controller.

**Additional context**

This extends the merged public MCP gateway from #14846 and the assistant
invitation and device-consent work from #14933. This also integrates the
merged assistant tool and configuration expansion in #15380. Dot retains
its dedicated agent resource and cannot receive personal configuration
permission. The public assistant connection remains a personal
connection.

## What Changed

- Add a durable Rust Dot provider and its TypeScript Runner driver.
- Add closed PRP v3 external-provider operations and native execution
input v6.
- Add company-scoped pairing, mailbox, assignment, and operation
records.
- Reuse merged browser/device consent, client metadata verification,
webhook admissions, refresh, secret rotation, and warm-standby gates.
- Keep Dot scopes, issuer, grants, event workers, and tool access
separate from personal assistant access.
- Add Dot configuration, pairing, readiness, and consent UI. Keep agent
grants out of the personal Connections entry.
- Regenerate the Dot-only migration after master. Preserve published
gateway migrations. Make the new migration safe to reapply.
- Document setup, recovery, accounting limits, evidence, and remaining
account qualification.
- Reverify reconnect callbacks and wake outstanding work with a fresh
mailbox reference; preserve the existing assignment and operation
receipts.
- Clean up Dot bindings and waiting runs on OAuth revoke and
refresh-token replay. Old grants cannot revoke replacement bindings.
- Restore the pairing reference when an unsaved agent form is reopened;
document board-only pairing routes in OpenAPI.
- Accept a clean Rust exit after the acknowledged shutdown receipt.
Unexpected exits still require recovery.
- Clear the cached binding after a successful revoke so a failed
connection refresh cannot restore it.
- Add production-component Storybook states and screenshots for pairing
and connection review. All preview account data is synthetic.
- Persist normalized completion, serialize Dot turns and durable work
admission, and poll subscription readiness.
- Serialize mailbox writes and cursor reads; retain paused fence
acknowledgement without task authority.
- Authorize admitted review runs without changing the worker assignee.
Include the fenced assignment ID in production stop notices.

## Verification

- This PR integrates master `4a8178e9c`. Dot migration
`0317_messy_famine.sql` follows the published history and is safe to
reapply. The merge preserves the reserved migration connection,
batch-commit handling, private task checks, task monitors, and native
accounting.
- Local workspace typecheck, full build, and UI token gates pass. The
server typecheck passes after the review fixes. Database and native
executor regressions pass.
- All twelve real Rust/PostgreSQL Dot integration tests and twelve Dot
driver tests pass. The tests cover native document writing and
finalization, durable replay, queue admission, mailbox ordering,
admitted reviews, stale authority, production stop references, and
paused acknowledgements.
- Current head `d0e7e0626` passes all 57 checks: 53 pass and four are
intentionally skipped. This includes full typecheck, build, tests, Rust
Runner verification, browser E2E, release verification, and Canary Dry
Run. Greptile rates this exact head 5/5. All review threads are
resolved.
- The full local root test run is slower than the sharded CI run and has
not completed. The full CI test gates pass on the current commit.
Focused local regressions pass.
- Real-account pairing and event delivery on this base commit remain
unqualified. Live account and setup proof are recorded in the follow-up
#15414.

The following screenshots use synthetic preview data. They show the
production pairing component and do not qualify a real account or the
full agent setup journey.

![Synthetic connected
preview](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/dot-events-prototype/doc/screenshots/openai-dot-runner/connected.jpg?raw=true)

## Risks

- This base adapter uses `PAPERCLIP_ENABLE_OPENAI_DOT=1` plus Public MCP
and Paperclip Runner. The separate experimental-settings follow-up in
#15414 replaces this environment flag with saved operator settings.
- Dot does not expose provider token usage or cost. The operator must
acknowledge external billing. Known Paperclip budget gates still apply.
- Cancellation fences Paperclip authority. It does not confirm that Dot
stopped all external activity.
- Assigned skill files and third-party MCP bindings are unsupported and
reject admission. There is no mounted workspace, model selector, or
provider thread identifier.
- Hosted agent-broker and remote controller deployments are not
qualified.
- The new migration follows the merged master history. Existing
prototype databases still need the normal master migration history
before this Dot-only migration.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The exact deployment ID and context window
size are not exposed in this session. Capabilities used: reasoning,
repository editing, code execution, and test inspection.

DottaandPaperclip a7a244ab33 feat: add company decision models with permission and cost controls (#15473)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Optional product features need small, typed model decisions.
> - Each company needs to choose which shared API connection pays for
those decisions.
> - Calls must retain user and task permissions, budget limits, and cost
attribution.
> - This pull request adds a managed decision service, setup UI, and
request history.
> - Features can check availability cheaply and keep their existing
behavior when decisions are unavailable.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server services, shared contracts, database accounting, Company
Settings, and Costs.

**Problem or motivation**

Paperclip has no common decision-model service. Adding provider calls
within each feature would duplicate credential access, permission
checks, and billing rules.

**Proposed solution**

Let a connection manager configure one company decision model. Support
OpenAI Decisions and Jev through OpenRouter. Provide a fixed setup test
and metadata-only history. Default company-sponsored background
decisions to on during setup, and preserve a saved off setting.

**Alternatives considered**

Per-feature credentials would duplicate existing connection management.
Personal overrides and provider fallback chains add permission and
billing complexity; they remain deferred.

**Roadmap alignment**

Reviewed ROADMAP.md and searched open PRs. This extends existing
connection access and budget accounting. Product features that call the
service remain outside this change. No matching decision-model service
PR was found.

## What Changed

- Add company settings, an internal `decisionModelService`, local
availability checks, and trusted human, agent/run, and system contexts.
- Pin Vercel AI SDK provider dependencies and adapt boolean, choice, and
ordered-score decisions for both providers. Bound requests and time;
disable paid retries.
- Add durable invocation metadata and agentless decision ledger charges.
Preserve fractional cents, pricing evidence, dispatch identity, and
unresolved billing holds.
- Share the company accounting lock and apply company, agent, and
project budgets. Settle charges once, retain unknown holds, and recover
interrupted calls without resubmission.
- Reuse connection setup and management UI. Add a Decisions view under
Costs, production-component Storybook coverage, database migration, and
service documentation.

## Verification

- Passed 166 current-code tests covering the decision service/provider,
setup component, Costs, OpenAPI, and every failure from the earlier
broad run. Coverage includes native SDK wire formats, refusals, billed
malformed responses, permission and secret-rotation races, identity
changes, concurrent budget admission, unresolved holds, agent/task
deletion, and stale setup feedback.
- Passed 170 existing connection, cost, budget, heartbeat-accounting,
and profile regression tests.
- Passed repository typecheck, production build, and design token gates
after integrating master. Verified the generated migration on a fresh
test database and upgraded the populated preview database from the
branch's earlier migration without losing settings or usage.
- Ran the required full `pnpm test:run`: its general phase completed
with 16,354 passed and 10 failures across five files while this branch
was still being updated. Every reported failure passes in the
current-code rerun; the serialized phase did not run after that failure.
The full GitHub CI suite passed on `b1b856a88`: general and serialized
tests, browser shards, runner checks, typecheck, production build,
packaging/canary, and policy gates. [CI
evidence](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37673106360).
- Passed the full-shell Storybook setup-to-history interaction test
again after integrating master. Greptile rates the final revision 5/5
with zero unresolved threads.
- Walked through the running app: empty setup, add each provider, save,
reload, run all three sample questions, inspect fractional charges in
history, switch provider while sponsorship is off, disable, and
reconnect. Checked mobile settings. These tests used the actual UI,
vault, server, SDKs, and database with simulated upstream responses.
- Live paid setup tests remain unverified: this environment has no
authorized OpenAI/OpenRouter credentials available. No mocked test is
presented as live provider evidence.

Reviewer journey: Company Settings → General → Decision model.
Add/select a shared API connection, save, run the billed sample, open
View usage, then disable decisions and verify Run test is disabled after
reload.

## Risks

- The SDK decision interface is experimental. Pinned versions and
wire-format tests limit upgrade drift.
- The migration allows agentless service charges and reservations.
Existing agent cost-reporting APIs still require an agent, and decision
receipts stay separate from run reconciliation.
- Timeouts can have unknown provider charges. Holds remain until an
audited accounting correction resolves them.
- OpenAI prices use a versioned Decisions rate snapshot; OpenRouter
costs use provider receipts. Unknown pricing is retained as unknown.
- A configured company authorizes background spending by default. Setup
explains this, and managers can turn it off.
- Live provider account/model availability still needs the two
credentialed acceptance checks.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository inspection, code
execution, and browser tools. The exact serving revision and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 572cec0344 fix(ui): present missing costs as an informational notice (#15459)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Costs dashboard shows spending and gaps in cost data.
> - Historical usage can have token counts without a recorded price.
> - The red notice implies that the user must fix those records.
> - This pull request shows the missing costs as a neutral note below
the totals.
> - Users can see the limit of the totals without a false call to
action.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14997.

**What happened?**

The Costs dashboard shows a red notice when a selected period contains
usage without prices. It also shows “0 runs await accounting” when no
runs are pending. Historical pricing gaps can therefore look like
current errors that need cleanup.

**Expected behavior**

Show a neutral explanation below the totals. State that totals include
only known costs. Show pending runs separately and only when the count
is positive.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open Costs for a period with unpriced usage and no pending runs.
2. Observe the red notice above the totals.
3. Apply this change. Confirm that the notice is muted and below the
totals, with no zero-count pending message.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master after #14997.

**Deployment mode**

Board UI in both the embedded Activity page and the standalone Costs
page.

## What Changed

- Move the cost-data notice below the summary tiles and use the muted
text token.
- Explain unavailable prices with “Totals include known costs only.”
- Separate pending runs from missing prices. Omit zero counts and use
singular or plural copy as needed.
- Update the existing UI tests for both page variants, including
missing-only, pending-only, and fully accounted states after refresh.

## Verification

- `pnpm --dir ui exec vitest run src/pages/Costs.test.tsx`: 21 tests
passed on the final commit. Both page variants cover mixed,
missing-only, pending-only, and fully accounted states.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: passed on the final commit.
- `pnpm build`: passed locally.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed locally.
- Full Linux CI passed on `0c23544c0f17e6641cc0c8de6ed498a731748bde`,
including browser tests, server tests, shared-package tests, build, and
typecheck. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37661883464).
- Greptile Apex: 5/5 on the final commit, with no unresolved review
threads.
- Local full-suite limit: `pnpm test:run` first failed because the fresh
checkout lacked embedded PostgreSQL library links. A runtime-skill
fixture also selected an unrelated parent directory, and a load test
timed out. After setup repair, the database suite (70 tests), skill
suite (3 tests), email suite (39 tests), and load suite (4 tests) passed
individually. The subsequent full local rerun was stopped after the
complete Linux CI run passed. This is not a claim that a full local test
invocation passed.

## Risks

Low risk. This changes presentation only. The note remains visible and
retains its accessible status role. Cost calculations, stored records,
and budget enforcement do not change. The copy does not assume that all
missing prices are historical. No schema migration or operator
documentation change is needed.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, repository inspection,
code editing, and test execution. The exact served model identifier and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 99a9de9940 fix(mcp): personalize assistant connections and hide revoked grants (#15411)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Assistant connections let people use their organization from another
assistant.
> - Setup begins with an invitation and returns to a list of connected
assistants.
> - Client-only labels obscure the authorizing person, while revoked
rows clutter that list.
> - This pull request shows the person’s avatar, names connections by
owner and client, and hides revoked rows.
> - It also shortens the copied invitation while keeping the approval
instructions.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #14933 and #15380.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Invitation copy and assistant connection management, in the
organization’s Connections screen and the account-wide management page.

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: shared MCP connection types, server profile projection,
UI and Storybook.

**Current behavior**

Connections are labeled only with a client name such as “Codex.” Revoked
connections remain visible. The invitation includes an extra sentence
about agent identity.

**Proposed behavior**

Show the authorizing person’s avatar and use names such as “Dotta’s
Codex connection.” Hide revoked rows after successful revocation and
when loading retained revoked grants. Failed revocation leaves the
connection visible. Remove the extra identity sentence from invitation
copy.

**Reason and benefit**

Make connection identity clear and keep the list focused on usable
connections.

**Breaking changes**

The connection response adds optional `user` metadata with name and
image. Older servers remain usable. Names and revoked-row visibility
change in the UI; OAuth client identity, authorization and audit
retention remain unchanged.

## What Changed

- Shorten the shared invitation text.
- Project the authorizing person’s name and avatar through the
user-scoped connection endpoint, without returning email or credentials.
- Reuse the existing Identity component and owner naming conventions
across the connection page, catalog card and account-wide list.
- Hide revoked grants and remove a successfully revoked row from the
shared cache, even if the subsequent refresh fails.
- Update documentation, regression tests and production-page Storybook
fixtures and revocation journeys.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `pnpm build-storybook` and `pnpm
check:token-gates` pass. Final UI type checks also pass.
- Focused consent and connection UI tests: 31 pass, including company
filtering, legacy metadata, custom client names, user-initial fallbacks,
failed revocation, retained revoked rows and refresh failure after
successful revocation.
- Existing MCP regression suite: 6 pass; 71 database checks are skipped
locally because embedded PostgreSQL cannot start on this machine. The
added database check verifies user-profile isolation and retained
revocation history; CI runs these checks.
- Browser verification with Storybook fixtures: owner avatar and name
render; revocation removes the selected row in both production pages,
leaves other connections visible, and restores the empty state after the
last revocation.
- All 54 current-head CI checks pass, with two optional Storybook jobs
skipped. CI includes database, browser, runner, typecheck, build and
clean-install canary coverage.
- Greptile reviewed commit `1368d79e1066b418712224378d89d64c2b11cb86`:
5/5, no actionable findings or unresolved threads.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` was stopped after complete CI passed.
Local database coverage remains unavailable because embedded PostgreSQL
cannot start; no full local-suite pass is claimed.

## Risks

Low risk. The additive profile field is optional for compatibility.
Revoked grants are filtered only from management UI and retained for
audit. Revocation failure does not hide an active connection. No
authorization scopes, token handling or schema changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with code editing, command execution and
browser verification. The exact deployment ID and context-window size
are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 2d0c138122 Expand direct assistant MCP tools for work and configuration (#15380)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - People also use assistants in Codex, Claude, and other MCP clients.
> - The existing assistant connection can read work and create tasks or
comments.
> - It cannot edit tasks, exchange files, or manage normal agent and
project settings.
> - These operations must retain the person's permissions and
Paperclip's execution rules.
> - This pull request adds an explicit operation registry and separately
consented configuration access.
> - Assistants can manage work without receiving credentials or runner
authority.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: assistant MCP, domain routes, consent UI, storage, and
Product E2E.

**Problem or motivation**

A connected assistant cannot update tasks, maintain documents, attach
files, or configure existing agents, projects, and skills. Users must
leave the assistant for these routine actions.

**Proposed solution**

Add named tools and a restricted API registry to direct connections.
Require separate configuration consent. Reuse domain routes and retry
receipts. File uploads save the attachment when the byte transfer
succeeds.

**Alternatives considered**

Arbitrary REST forwarding would expose administration and credential
operations. Runner impersonation would bypass execution ownership.
Separate upload completion calls add unnecessary client state.

**Roadmap alignment**

Checked ROADMAP.md and related MCP pull requests. This extends the
human-authorized connection from #14933. It does not replace the runner
or introduce agent impersonation.

Companion Cloud routing and directory isolation:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/678.

## What Changed

- Add task editing, finish/block, documents/revisions, deliverables,
agent settings/instructions, projects/repositories, and skills/files.
- Add an allowlisted API search/call registry with identical field
restrictions, scopes, and retry identities.
- Add unchecked configuration consent. Existing write grants retain
their current authority.
- Add hashed, expiring file transfer tickets and atomic upload receipts.
No completion call is required.
- Preserve company boundaries, human attribution, active native
execution ownership, and execution review gates.
- Add protocol/domain tests, consent stories, and eight paid Product E2E
workflows.
- Repair two CI fixture races: await cold route setup before assertions,
and wait for asynchronously loaded connection copy. Both fixture suites
pass (24 + 48 tests).

## Verification

- Consent revision: one write-access checkbox controls requested work
and configuration permissions in browser and device flows. All 16
consent tests, UI typecheck/build and token gates pass. Updated
interactive stories cover default approval, opt-out and viewer
restrictions. The paid browser helper uses the new exact label. Real
GPT-5.4 Mini Product E2E passes 2/2 at
`64f96373118eb190f8cba1c2ab17cb979555f3ad` (configuration + permission
denial), campaign `local-2026-10-07T00-51-14-337Z`, no automatic
retries, cleanup passed; $0.04149375 estimated assistant cost plus
unpriced worker usage. Raw results, usage and source fingerprints are
retained in the worktree. UI and Product E2E typechecks pass.

- Prior head `2f246d4b74f1f98c75ebcb37ae6753a748237fac`: all 52 checks
pass; two optional Storybook checks skip. Greptile 5/5 on that head, no
unresolved review threads. Final consent head
`64f96373118eb190f8cba1c2ab17cb979555f3ad` also has all checks passing
and Greptile 5/5 with no unresolved threads. The unchanged Cursor
sandbox test had one 10-second timeout, passed in local isolation, and
passed its single CI rerun; the failed attempt remains in [the CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37554106934).
The existing chat retry-denial browser test had one visibility failure;
its single rerun passes, and the failed attempt remains in [the CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37542735691).

- Full workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass at final
runtime source `b2196fae1`. UI token gates pass.
- 139 MCP/OAuth/transfer/privacy tests and 76 grader calibration tests
pass, including one-connection PostgreSQL OAuth and concurrent upload
retries.
- Paid Product E2E: all eight expanded cases qualified across Mini,
Haiku and Sonnet. A merged-source repeat passed 23/24; one Haiku cell
timed out before application startup. Final affected-case qualification
passes 9/9 on all three models with grader v16, including the failed
cell. Automatic retries disabled; failures, costs, source hashes and
independent durable-state/file assertions are retained in [the
verification
record](doc/plans/2026-10-06-expanded-assistant-mcp-verification.md).
- Actual Codex CLI, Claude Code and OpenCode clients completed local
reads/mutations. Codex wrote a report, Claude updated it in a later
conversation, and OpenCode uploaded/downloaded a file with matching
SHA-256 and registered the attachment. Revoking the CLI grant rejects
subsequent bridge initialization.
- Butter staging is verified on final runtime `b2196fae1`
([deployment](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/actions/runs/37538432138)).
A fresh OpenCode workspace fetched the copied invitation, configured
remote MCP, started OAuth and reached real consent with configuration
unchecked. Invalid transfer tickets return 403 through Cloud. Human
approval for the new persistent staging grant is pending; hosted
task/file success is not yet claimed. The final transaction fix is
deployed.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` passed 15,614 general-server tests but
stopped on two macOS timeouts. The heartbeat test passed in isolation;
the existing 40,000-file Git stress fixture timed out again. Its Linux
CI lane passes. Later local full-suite phases did not run after the
timeout; this is not an all-green local full-suite claim.
- Instructions and security limits are in `doc/public-mcp.md`; the saved
plan is `doc/plans/2026-10-06-expanded-assistant-mcp-tools.md`.

## Risks

- This expands the experimental direct MCP surface. Explicit schemas and
domain permissions must stay synchronized.
- Migration 0311 adds transfer tickets and upload receipts. Expired
orphan cleanup must not remove committed attachments.
- Configuration requires a new consent request containing that scope;
the single write-access choice controls it alongside work mutations.
Refreshing an old grant does not add it.
- The public directory keeps its original ten tools through the
companion Cloud change.
- Hosted consent/work proof remains the final delivery gate. The PR
stays draft while approval of the new staging grant is pending; code
checks and review are green. Merging is a separate action.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6, tool use and code execution). The exact serving
model ID and context window are not exposed in this session. Paid
evaluation models: gpt-5.4-mini, claude-haiku-4-5-20251001;
claude-sonnet-4-6.

ac8f3eb143 feat(ui): remove star and leave buttons from agent index (#15400)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The Agents index page (`/agents/all`) shows one row per agent in
both the streamlined and production sides of the UI
> - Each row had a star toggle and a leave/join button that write
per-user state through the resource-memberships API (`agent_memberships`
table)
> - The default streamlined sidebar no longer lists agents, so the star
and leave actions on the index no longer feed a visible pinned list
> - This pull request removes the star toggle and the leave/join button
from agent index rows and org-tree nodes
> - The backend resource-memberships endpoints and the
`agent_memberships` table stay live because the agent detail page and
the legacy sidebar still use them
> - The benefit is a cleaner index page with no redundant actions for
state that is not surfaced on the page itself

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this change; the description follows
the feature request issue template inline.

**Subsystem affected**
ui/ — React + Vite board UI. The change is presentational only; no
backend or schema code is touched.

**Problem or motivation**
The agent index rows show a star toggle and a leave/join button. Those
two buttons write per-user membership state that the default streamlined
UI no longer surfaces anywhere on the page itself. The default sidebar
shows a plain "Agents" nav item and does not list agents. The buttons
are now redundant on the index.

**Proposed solution**
Remove both buttons from the agent index list rows and org-tree nodes in
both UI variants. Keep the data layer. The agent detail page still
renders the header star toggle and the join/leave banner, and the legacy
sidebar still renders star and leave rows for instances that opt out of
the streamlined UI.

**Alternatives considered**
- Remove the backend endpoints too. Rejected: the agent detail page and
the legacy sidebar still read and write the same state.
- Keep the buttons hidden behind a setting. Rejected: no product need,
and the plan approved the straightforward removal.

**Roadmap alignment**
This is a small presentational change. It does not overlap any section
in `ROADMAP.md`.

**Additional context**
Rows whose membership state is `left` keep their dimmed styling on the
index.

## What Changed

- Removed the `StarToggle` component from agent index list rows in
`ui/src/pages/Agents.tsx` and `ui/src/pages/Agents.production.tsx`
- Removed the `MembershipAction` (Leave/Join) component from agent index
list rows in both files
- Removed both actions from the org-tree nodes in both files
- Dropped now-unused imports and derived values (`StarToggle`,
`MembershipAction`, `isStarred`, `useResourceMembershipMutation`, and
the per-row pending/starred variables)
- Kept `useResourceMemberships` and the dim-on-left row styling so rows
whose membership is `left` remain visually identified
- Updated `ui/src/pages/Agents.test.tsx`: a new test asserts both modes
omit star and leave/join actions from list and org-chart views; the
dim-on-left tests are kept

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` passes
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build` passes
- UI Vitest suite for `Agents.test.tsx` passes (21 tests)
- `pnpm check:token-gates` is clean
- Manual check on `/agents/all`: no star and no Leave/Join buttons in
the list view or the org-chart view; star/leave still work on the agent
detail page

## Risks

Low risk. This is a presentational UI change with no backend or schema
changes. Star/leave remain available on the agent detail page and the
legacy sidebar. No migration is involved.

## Model Used

- Provider: DeepSeek (via the Paperclip opencode_local adapter, model
`openrouter/~deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-latest`)
- Model: deepseek-v4-flash (OpenRouter
`openrouter/~deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-latest`)
- Context window: 128K; used with tool use in the repository
- Assisted with the code change and this PR body; the plan and scope
came from the tracking work item

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 228f0e2807 fix(ui): make pull request review waits visible (#15375)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people supervise agent work and review its outputs.
> - A task can wait for a human to review a pull request while an agent
schedules checks.
> - The PR work product and detected external links use separate display
paths.
> - A private PR can disappear from the useful sidebar view when its
provider lookup fails.
> - The monitor countdown says when the next check runs but omits the
saved review request.
> - This change shows the saved PR and requested review in the task's
existing surfaces.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A task kept checking whether a private GitHub PR had merged. Its work
product requested board review, but the Properties sidebar used detected
external objects instead. The PR URL was stored only in metadata, which
the PR refresh path did not read. The composer showed a generic monitor
countdown with no PR link or review action.

**Expected behavior**

Show saved PR links even if provider access fails. During a GitHub
monitor wait, make outstanding review requests visible with the next
check time and a status-check action. Stop requesting review when a PR
merges or closes.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Register a PR work product with `reviewState: needs_board_review` and
its URL in `metadata.url`.
2. Schedule an external-service monitor for GitHub.
3. Open the task with external-object lookup unavailable or unable to
access the private repository.
4. Inspect Properties and the composer wait strip.

Related work: #14469 added rich artifact cards. #8759 addresses
attention on monitored task blockers. This change uses the existing work
products and monitor action; it adds no blocker or approval mechanism.

## What Changed

- Show saved PRs in Properties, including metadata-only links,
independent of external-object availability.
- Deduplicate equivalent GitHub PR URLs while preserving the saved
navigation link, and put explicit review requests first.
- Keep provider status and freshness on the combined PR row; keep
private PR links usable when lookup fails.
- Show the saved PR review request above the composer and in the
existing monitor banner during a GitHub monitor wait.
- Label the existing monitor action `Check status` and show check
failures inline.
- Suppress review prompts for merged, closed, or archived PRs even if
their review flag is stale.
- Refresh PR metadata using `metadata.url` and the existing `repository`
alias.
- Share saved work-product reads across the thread, Properties, and
Artifacts. Refresh GitHub in a separate query and enrich only matching
PR versions.
- Start a fresh saved-row request on live invalidation so late provider
responses cannot hide new artifacts or changed review requests.
- Cover stalled GitHub lookups in both panels so refresh latency cannot
hide saved work.
- Scope monitor-check mutation state to the task so failures and late
responses do not leak across navigation.
- Refresh GitHub status when the displayed run finishes, including when
saved PR rows have not changed.
- Clarify that PR review and external release handoffs need a saved
human-input interaction with an agent assigned for continuation; a flag,
monitor, or handoff comment alone does not create that card.

## Verification

- 386 tests pass across eleven affected UI and server suites on
`184c7d8746`. Regressions cover saved links, provider status, cold-cache
loading, panel reopening, monitor errors during navigation, and live
updates during provider refresh.
- Three live-update regressions and two run-completion regressions fail
before their fixes and pass afterward. These tests use the real API
client's GET coalescing and abort handling.
- Full repository typecheck and build passed on the merged parent
`1a49112dd2`. The latest UI changes pass UI typecheck and token gates;
CI also verifies the latest build. Capability contract/inventory checks
pass.
- Storybook build and browser checks passed before the query race fix.
Browser checks cover desktop and 390px mobile review waits, plus video,
mixed-file, and empty artifact galleries after background refresh.
- The earlier full local `pnpm test:run` was stopped under disk
pressure. It reported failures outside the changed suites; an isolated
skill-cache run reproduced three existing macOS permission failures. The
full local suite was not rerun for this follow-up.
- Latest-head CI passes on `184c7d8746`, including the browser shards
and canary dry run. Apex is 5/5 with no actionable findings and no
unresolved threads. All eight reported findings are addressed.

## Risks

- This uses saved PR review state. When GitHub access fails, the saved
state can remain stale until the agent updates it. The link remains
visible and the status check remains available.
- `Check status` wakes the existing monitor owner. It does not merge a
PR, accept an approval, or mark the task done.
- No schema, permissions, or scheduler behavior changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 via Codex, with reasoning, repository analysis, code
editing, and test execution. The exact deployment model ID and context
window were not exposed in this session.

Devin Foley 8cbd21b3e7 feat(apps): add Superagent connection (#15394)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents reach external services through the Apps catalog. Each
catalog entry is a reviewed `AppDefinition` that connects a provider's
hosted MCP server to Paperclip's shared vault, grants, policies,
gateway, and audit trail.
> - Superagent (`superagent.sh`) is a security platform. Its hosted MCP
server lets agents read and triage security findings, start red-team
reports, run Contributor Trust and dependency update jobs, and score web
pages, email, files, skills, MCP repositories, and packages before an
agent trusts them.
> - Superagent is not in the catalog. Operators must use the generic
"Connect your own MCP server" flow. That flow has no branding, no key
guidance, and no warning about billable or destructive tools.
> - The connector playbook supports this provider with existing
definition fields. The server accepts an organization API key as a
bearer header. It publishes no OAuth authorization-server metadata, so
browser sign-in is not possible.
> - This pull request adds the Superagent definition, its artwork, the
research and permission-review ledger rows, documentation, deterministic
tests, and one reviewed risk-classification rule.
> - The benefit is a branded, governed Superagent connection with clear
key guidance and a warning about tools that cost credits or delete data.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Teams that use Superagent for PR security, red teaming, and agent
guardrails want their Paperclip agents to read findings, return
structured reports, and score content before they use it. Superagent is
not in the Apps catalog. Operators must paste the MCP URL and an
`Authorization` header into the generic remote-MCP flow. That flow gives
no branding and no provider guidance. It also does not tell the operator
that the key reaches the whole organization, or that some tools consume
credits or permanently delete findings.

**Proposed solution**

Add a catalog-only Superagent connection that follows the connector
playbook. It has one method: a customer organization API key
(`sk_live_...`), sent as an `Authorization: Bearer` header to
`https://www.superagent.sh/mcp`. The field helper text explains that
Superagent keys are not scoped. The method warning tells operators to
set billable and destructive actions to Ask first before agents run
unattended. All discovered tools stay governed by the normal per-action
policies.

**Alternatives considered**

A browser sign-in method was not added. The server's protected-resource
metadata names `https://superagent.sh` as its authorization server, but
that origin publishes no `oauth-authorization-server` or
`openid-configuration` document, so Paperclip cannot discover OAuth
endpoints. A plugin was not needed because the connection needs no
custom UI, tables, workers, or webhooks. Relying on the generic risk
classifier was not enough. Several Superagent mutations
(`triage_finding`, `scan_*`, `restore_agent_builtin_rule`) use names
that it reads as reads, so a narrow reviewed Superagent rule was added
instead.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing self-serve remote-MCP connection catalog. It
does not overlap planned core work.

## What Changed

- Added the `superagent` row to
`packages/shared/src/self-serve-mcp-research.json` (API-key auth, risk
tier S4).
- Added the `superagent` provider to
`scripts/ingest-app-definitions.mjs` (category, key placement and
placeholder, console links, guidance, description). Regenerated
`packages/shared/src/app-definitions/superagent.json` and the generated
registry.
- Added the `superagent/mcp-api-key` permission review to
`doc/connections/tool-method-permission-reviews.json`, with
key-permission text and evidence links.
- Added Superagent's official mark
(`ui/public/brands/apps/superagent.png`, the 460×460 avatar of the
official `superagent-ai` GitHub organization) and the brand manifest
entry.
- Added gallery copy for the Superagent card.
- Added a reviewed Superagent rule to `classifyRisk` in
`server/src/services/tool-access.ts`. Only `list_*` and `get_*` tools,
and tools that Superagent marks read-only, are reads. `delete_*` and
`revoke_agent_client` are destructive. All other tools are writes, so
billable and rule-changing tools can be set to Ask first.
- Put the Ask-first advice in the API-key helper text, because the key
form shows helper text and not method warnings.
- Added `doc/connections/SUPERAGENT.md` (transport and auth, why there
is no OAuth, administrator setup, capabilities and policy, manifest,
brand provenance, validation hook). Linked it from the connections
README and the permission audit.
- Tests: definition shape, store visibility and artwork, URL
recognition, the bearer header on discovery with the key kept out of
connection config, read/write/destructive classification of fixture
tools, the Superagent risk rule (including `triage_finding` and
`restore_agent_builtin_rule`), the visible Ask-first advice and API-key
gating of the connect form, and the pinned catalog counts.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/app-definitions.test.ts
packages/shared/src/app-definitions-url.test.ts
ui/src/pages/apps/AppsConnect.test.tsx ui/src/pages/apps/Browse.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/app-brand-assets.test.ts
ui/src/pages/apps/AppLogo.brand-assets.test.tsx`: 317 passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts`: 385 passed.
- `node scripts/check-app-brand-assets.mjs` and `node --test
scripts/app-brand-validation.test.mjs`: passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`, `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck`, and `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
typecheck`: clean.
- Manual: in a local instance, open Apps → Browse and confirm the
Superagent card and icon. Open `/apps/connect?source=superagent`.
Confirm the single API-key method, and confirm that Connect enables only
after a key is entered.
- Live metadata probe on 2026-10-06: an unauthenticated `initialize` on
`https://www.superagent.sh/mcp` returns 401 with
`resource_metadata="https://www.superagent.sh/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource"`.
That document returns 200. No authorization-server metadata exists at
the named issuer.

## Risks

- Low risk to existing providers. The change is additive catalog data
plus tests. The generated registry only gains one import. The new risk
rule runs only for Superagent connections.
- A Superagent key reaches its whole organization. Some tools consume
credits (`create_*_report`, `triage_finding`) or delete data permanently
(`delete_finding`). Every action starts Allowed under the current
product default. The key helper text tells operators to set these
actions to Ask first.
- The permission-review ledger records live proof as not run. No
Superagent account was used. The lifecycle checklist in
`doc/connections/SUPERAGENT.md` needs a documented pass before the entry
is fully qualified.

DottaandPaperclip 582911ba74 fix(access): give Operators default company editing permissions (#15377)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Human company members receive permission grants from their role
preset.
> - Human invitations use the Operator role by default.
> - The old Operator preset only granted task assignment, so ordinary
members could not edit agents or manage connections.
> - This pull request gives Operators company editing and audit access
while keeping join approval and member-permission management separate.
> - Members can configure their agents and accounts without an Owner
role.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The default permission grants for human Operators and the invitation
role description.

**Subsystem affected**

server/ permission presets and invitation authorization, plus ui/
invitation and tool access gates.

**Current behavior**

Operators receive only `tasks:assign` as an explicit default grant.
Agent configuration and managed account setup fail their permission
checks.

**Proposed behavior**

Operators receive agent creation/configuration, skills, environments,
invitations, task assignment, pipelines, connections, tool
management/use, and audit grants. The preset excludes `joins:approve`
and `users:manage_permissions`. Operators can invite Operators and
Viewers. Inviting a role with either excluded power requires that power,
so invitations cannot bypass the restriction.

**Reason and benefit**

Ordinary company members can edit company work and connect accounts
through the existing routes.

**Breaking changes**

The Operator preset grants more permissions. The existing startup and
Cloud sign-in seeding paths can insert these missing grants for existing
Operators. They retain custom grant scopes. Explicit invitation grants
still take precedence. Inviting Admins now requires join approval;
inviting Owners also requires member-permission management. This PR adds
no migration or new backfill path.

Related: #5945 describes missing role grants in another membership entry
point. This PR changes the preset and does not change that endpoint.

## What Changed

- Expanded the Operator preset to 14 company editing, invitation, tool,
and audit grants.
- Kept join approval and member-permission management out of the preset.
- Required those powers when an invitation's selected human role
includes them, preventing Operators from delegating the excluded powers
through Owner/Admin invitations.
- Updated the invitation role copy and the product specifications.
- Allowed active Operators (including legacy Member roles) through the
invite shortcut and advanced tool/profile UI gates. Kept inactive
memberships, Viewers, and other companies excluded; API grants remain
authoritative.
- Added tests for the default Operator grants, both excluded actions,
agent editing, company boundaries, and invitation role authorization.
- Simplified adapter-route test imports so authorization errors and the
error handler use one module graph; retained the upstream
mock-initialization fix.
- Kept Owner/Admin/Viewer presets and explicit invitation grants
unchanged. Added no EE code or database migration.

## Verification

- Permission and invitation tests: 38 passed across access service,
invitation defaults, and invitation creation routes.
- UI access tests: 61 passed across invitation shortcuts, Operator
tool/profile access, and invitation UI.
- Adapter route tests: 15 passed after resolving the upstream test setup
conflict.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `pnpm check:token-gates`:
passed on the final branch.
- The initial local `pnpm test:run` general-server batch reported three
tool-access failures and eight upload-helper timeouts. Both complete
affected suites passed in isolation on the final branch: 403 tests. The
initial full local run was not green.
- Both complete tool-access and adapter route suites also passed on an
untouched snapshot of base `88ff98b83`: 387 tests. The earlier tool
failures did not reproduce there.
- [All CI gates
passed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37527422346)
for `068be153b9c2a064f2aaccc0627fdf458e73747e`, including the previously
failing serialized adapter lane, general tests, E2E, typecheck, build,
Runner checks, and canary dry run.
- Greptile scored that exact commit 5/5. Superagent passed. Both
invitation review threads are resolved.

## Risks

- Operators gain broad company editing and invitation access by design.
- Existing default seeding can add the new missing grants during startup
or Cloud sign-in. It does not replace existing scopes.
- Company boundaries and the two excluded permission checks still apply.
- An Admin without member-permission management can no longer invite an
Owner. Operators retain invitation access for Operator/Viewer roles and
agent-only invites.
- This PR changes company permissions. Cloud workspace invitation rules

DottaandPaperclip e38d6d16b6 feat(connections): add advanced provider setup and live browser qualification (#15341)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Users connect accounts and choose an agent harness and model.
> - The runtime change in #14970 supports custom providers on those
connections.
> - Normal setup must stay simple while advanced users can choose a
compatible gateway.
> - Shared connector rows and access controls keep these choices
consistent.
> - This pull request refines the agent setup UI and adds review stories
and repeatable browser qualification.
> - The qualification checks real tools and downloaded outputs, not only
a successful run status.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14970, #37, #13083, #14104, #14565, #12692.

The core implementation in #14970 is merged. This branch incorporates
its squash commit and targets `master`. Both PRs contain our
implementation. #14016 is a reference only and is not a dependency. This
PR has 96 changed files.

## What Changed

- Complete model-provider connector presentation beside other
connectors. Each row uses the existing Connect action and connection
list. Tags are stored without category UI. The base PR includes the
provider forms and routes.
- Show persistent Subscription, API Key, and Advanced choices. Label
Advanced as Custom Gateway. Reuse provider logos, connection lists, and
permissions controls. Default access to the organization and all agents
when permitted; keep narrowing controls under Advanced.
- Keep Configure reachable before subscription sign-in, so users can
select a supported environment when the default cannot sign in. Testing
and saving still require a connection. Show the execution environment in
Configure. Preserve the confirmed Connect choice. Editing a method,
credential, saved account, or advanced choice requires that current
choice to connect before testing or saving. Use matching model and
thinking-effort dropdowns and retain connection icons in selected
values.
- Preserve the new harness model default when switching an existing
OpenCode agent to Codex or Claude, and resolve user-selected model names
with the effective harness.
- Load popular OpenRouter models through the shared connection-model
discovery path. Keep explicit model lists and manual model entry
available.
- Group onboarding, connection setup, agent runtime, management,
recovery, and production-component stories under AI Connections /
Provider routing.
- Add an explicit-only provider-connections browser suite for managed
local or existing local/staging targets. Use private browser profiles
and credential handoffs. Support human-assisted subscription sign-in
without sharing passwords or tokens in reports.
- Verify persisted connection identity, runtime probes, tool execution,
exact artifact bytes, completion, and context-dependent follow-up.
Retain source/model provenance, cost bounds, closed error diagnostics,
original failures, and cleanup evidence.
- Add Gemini startup-model and skill-root fixes, Grok private-history
detection, ACP filesystem regression fixtures, selected-workspace
handling for local Hermes, and artifact-helper workspace fallback.
- Keep managed Grok runtime homes disposable. Remove host-side
transcript retention/restoration because private file modes do not
isolate same-user agent processes. Ignore earlier development archives
and use a fresh task handoff when history is unavailable. Verify the
absence of restored transcripts with a separate same-user process.
- Capture stopped-run diagnostics before deleting an attached-company
fixture agent. Track creation and owned sign-in receipts; revoke only
this attempt's accounts and never adopt a concurrent campaign's newly
created account. Preserve failure signals and final status through
cleanup.
- Require the requested environment in the saved agent and every run,
including follow-ups. Reject a forced incompatible target. Keep one
cancellation state through startup, every cell, reporting, and teardown
for SIGINT, SIGTERM, and SIGHUP. Stop further paid cells after
interruption. Document qualification limits.

## Verification

- Current head `b3bb3e94d577d43d9965a6b9daba039f599b2e49` includes
master `d9f600043`. The security fix in `a758fde31` passes full
workspace typecheck, production build, and 119 connection/Grok
regressions. The unchanged UI passes all 126
configuration/model-discovery tests and token gates. The final
published-guide correction passes Grok adapter typecheck. Earlier head
`eebd8225c` passed the complete deterministic runner suite (1,404 Vitest
tests and 128 Node tests) and all CI jobs. Current-head CI run
`37520147514` passed all 47 jobs, including the full sharded Vitest and
browser matrix, production build, and canary dry run. All 55 checks
completed: 53 successes and two expected skips. The current-head
security scan passed, Greptile is 5/5, and no review threads remain
open.
- A separate same-user process reproduced reading a restored Grok
transcript before the security fix. The regression now finds no
transcript. Existing fresh-session fallback and ordinary session
metadata behavior pass.
- The final account-choice and cleanup fixes pass 85 setup tests and 26
qualification-harness tests. Regressions verify that editing a
connection invalidates confirmation, Configure remains reachable before
sign-in, diagnostics are captured before fixture deletion, and
concurrent campaigns cannot adopt or revoke each other's accounts. UI
and E2E typechecks pass.
- The Storybook build and actual Chromium production-component stories
passed during this change. Review the neighboring AI Connections /
Provider routing stories, regular connector rows, three connection
modes, model discovery, and the single execution-environment control in
Configure.
- Cancellation smoke verified authenticated cleanup before browser close
for SIGINT, SIGTERM, and SIGHUP. Regressions cover interruption during
startup and reporting, missing-file ACP resource errors, and preserved
permission denials. Both ACP runtime versions and 54 ACPX/Grok
regressions passed. The deterministic connection-intent browser suite
passed two tests.
- Historical local qualification retained 43 passing API/gateway cells
out of 46, with downloaded outputs and follow-up receipts. These
attempts span earlier builds; they do not qualify this exact commit or
staging. Subscription combinations, Gemini overloads, and the unresolved
follow-up failure remain recorded rather than counted as passing.
- Use `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --list --suite provider-connections` to
inspect the matrix. Follow `tests/runner-e2e/PROVIDER-CONNECTIONS.md`
for credentials, target URL, sign-in assistance, budget, evidence, and
cleanup. Paid live tests remain opt-in.

## Risks

- The core implementation in #14970 is merged. This PR adds no database
migration of its own.
- Subscription login needs an interactive provider session. Dedicated
accounts and staging qualification remain follow-up work; this PR does
not certify every login combination for production.
- Managed Grok transcript resume is deferred until provider history has
an OS isolation or authorized broker solution. Follow-ups start fresh
with Paperclip task context; earlier live Grok results do not qualify
this behavior.
- Gemini CLI 0.58.0 has an upstream ACP new-file error conversion
defect. Live overloads and one unresolved follow-up timeout remain
recorded. The stock CLI is unchanged, and those cases are not marked as
passing.
- Real-provider tests spend credits and use private credential/evidence
directories. The launcher requires explicit selection and checks target
ownership. It must not attach to a developer's database by accident.
- OpenClaw Gateway, Hermes Gateway, Claude Managed, AWS AgentCore,
Process, HTTP, and legacy ACPX local remain outside custom provider
setup.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser testing. The exact deployment model ID and
context window size were not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 9f7057e122 feat(connections): configure custom model providers across agent harnesses (#14970)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use a harness, a model, and a credential to run tasks.
> - Connections already store credentials and control who can use them.
> - Custom providers also need an endpoint and a supported API format.
> - A per-agent endpoint would duplicate credentials and access rules.
> - This pull request stores routing on the connection and projects it
into the harness.
> - Isolated credentials and protocol checks keep the selected
connection authoritative.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #37, #13083, #14104, #14565, #12692.

#14016 is a reference only. This PR has its own schema, vault
persistence, routing validation, runtime projection, and tests. None of
the five commits in #14016 is an ancestor of this branch. We do not
depend on or plan to merge it. #14967 addresses task-pinned account
pools. #14422 addresses another provider integration.

This is the first of two linked PRs. Merge this connection change before
#15341, which refines agent setup and adds the qualification harness.
The split keeps each review below 100 changed files. Provider catalog
entries have usable setup forms in this PR. Local browser subscription
sign-in is included.

## What Changed

- Store non-secret routing metadata on AI connections. Vault provider
API keys, including Bedrock bearer API keys. Reject general AWS access
keys.
- Enforce company, owner, human audience, agent access, connection
status, and protocol checks before resolving credentials. Keep reconnect
destinations immutable and retain connection identity during key
rotation.
- Project OpenRouter and compatible custom endpoints into Codex, Claude,
OpenCode, and local Hermes. Carry these settings through both legacy and
native runner transports. Clear conflicting host credentials and redact
keys from diagnostics.
- Preserve older OpenRouter accounts and native personal defaults. Add
Google API-key accounts and migration `0306` for the two
provider-default constraints.
- Run local Claude and Codex subscription sign-in behind the existing
browser sign-in card. Use private attempt homes and owner-bound
completion instead of a copied terminal command.
- Seed isolated Gemini authentication and preserve OpenCode workspace
permissions. Keep the selected connection authoritative. The independent
Gemini and Grok workflow fixes are in #15341.
- Keep native OpenCode custom gateway keys in a runner-owned
selected-model proxy; the harness config contains only a session-scoped
capability. Honor runtime outgoing proxy and certificate settings.
Preserve streamed responses and revoke the proxy on close or startup
failure.
- Allow ordinary members to connect native personal accounts before an
agent exists.
- Repair routed accounts from task cards using the saved provider
destination, protocol, model aliases, and connection identity.
- Add provider catalog definitions, model discovery, pinned logos, and
complete native and routed setup forms. Allow a personal routed
connection before a new agent exists. Keep endpoint authentication keys
out of Hermes terminal children.
- Recover cancelled or restarted browser sign-in with a clear restart
action. Support no-auth endpoints without a vault credential. Add
isolation and recovery regressions and runtime documentation.

## Verification

- Updated with `origin/master` at `22a3ea341`. Migration `0306` follows
the new master migration and passes migration and snapshot checks.
- The integrated connection regressions passed 152 tests and 50 native
OpenCode driver tests, including key-free child-shell configuration
reads, authenticated/no-auth forwarding, streaming, model/path
restrictions, cancellation, outgoing proxy routing, and NO_PROXY bypass.
Provider setup has 14 passing tests. The pinned real OpenCode 1.18.34
executable also completed a turn through the proxy against a local
synthetic provider; the reusable key was absent from its config. A
second real-executable smoke passed with an HTTPS CONNECT proxy and
runtime-specific synthetic certificate trust. Certificate-file and
certificate-directory regressions pass.
- Task-card repair passed 48 tests, including OpenRouter, Bedrock, and
custom gateway reconnect cases. UI typecheck and token gates passed.
- The prior core regression set passed 133 tests across new-agent setup,
provider forms, browser sign-in, routing projection, and connection
authorization. Token gates and UI typecheck passed.
- Full workspace typecheck and production build passed again after the
latest integration and credential-proxy fix. The merged deterministic
runner E2E suite passed 1,400 Vitest tests and 128 Node tests.
- Full workspace typecheck passed on the prior linked combined
implementation. Production build, Storybook build, 1,316 browser-harness
Vitest tests, and 128 Node tests passed. Head `9d964c8d9` includes the
latest master integration and regenerated migration. This exact head
passed 54 remote checks with four expected skips and Greptile 5/5; no
review threads remain open. An unchanged server fixture had a random
six-character issue-prefix collision on its first attempt. All 245 tests
passed locally and the single CI retry passed.
- A provider-free terminal check used the cited supported Hermes source
and dummy keys. Gateway and OpenRouter terminal children could not read
the selected key.
- The broad local Vitest attempt passed 15,442 tests but was not green.
It had an embedded-Postgres startup failure, an HTTP logger timeout, an
origin socket error, and a browser cancellation wait timeout. The
cancellation wait was corrected. The relevant connection tests and the
full origin test file passed separately. Latest-head CI must pass before
merge.
- Prior credential-backed acceptance exercised task creation, tool use,
artifact delivery, completion, and context-dependent follow-up. Claude
legacy and native runners passed Bedrock with `us-east-1` and
`us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-6`.
- Historical local qualification retained 43 passing API/gateway cells
out of 46. Those attempts span earlier builds. They do not qualify this
exact commit or staging. All subscription combinations and staging
remain unqualified.
- Verify native subscription and API-key setup. Connect a regular
provider catalog row. Verify an incompatible harness and a changed
reconnect URL are rejected. Use #15341 for the complete browser
campaign.

## Risks

- Migration `0306` changes two check constraints. It preserves rows and
is safe to reapply. It takes normal constraint-change locks.
- Credential projection touches several harnesses. CLI upgrades can
change provider configuration and session behavior.
- The native OpenCode proxy adds a loopback hop, pins requests to the
selected model, limits request bodies to 16 MiB, rejects redirects, and
expires at session close. It prevents reusable keys in the child
configuration; it is not an OS isolation boundary against a process
debugger running as the same user.
- Custom endpoints must be reachable from the agent environment. Saving
a connection does not prove connectivity. Bedrock keys require rotation
before expiry.
- Gemini CLI 0.58.0 has an upstream ACP new-file error conversion
defect. Provider overloads and an unresolved follow-up timeout also
affect live Gemini qualification. We have not patched the installed CLI
or marked those cases as passing.
- OpenClaw Gateway, Hermes Gateway, Claude Managed, AWS AgentCore,
Process, HTTP, and legacy ACPX local are excluded. Vertex, ambient AWS
identity, arbitrary auth headers, and custom routing for other harnesses
are excluded.
- These PRs do not establish production or staging qualification for
every provider and login method.

DottaandPaperclip 22a3ea3414 Invite assistants from Connections with scoped browser and device consent (#14933)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Public MCP lets people use their organization from an external
assistant.
> - Operators need a visible control for this experimental access.
> - Hosted users should select an organization once and then approve its
permissions.
> - This pull request adds the setting, invitation-first setup, and
browser or device consent.
> - Connections provides a copyable invitation with public instructions
that grant no access.
> - Users reach browser consent from their assistant and return to
inspect or revoke access.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Builds on merged foundation #14846. This PR now targets master. Related
settings convention: #13905.

**Current behavior**

The preview uses an environment variable to enable MCP. Hosted consent
repeats organization selection. Assistant access has no entry in
Connections, so users must already know the endpoint and how to reach
consent.

**Proposed behavior**

An administrator enables Settings → Experimental → Assistant connections
(MCP). A hosted connection shows the selected organization and its icon,
then asks for permissions. Requested write access starts checked when
the user’s role permits it; the user can opt out before connecting.
Direct instance connections show an organization picker with the first
available organization selected. The selection stays fixed across
refetches and still requires an explicit Connect action. Connections
includes Assistant Connection (MCP). Its setup page explains the
canonical endpoint, client configuration, browser authentication, and
connected access. It connects as the current person and does not select
or impersonate an agent.

**Reason and benefit**

Operators manage access with the other experiments. Users select one
organization, and both the UI and server enforce that choice.

**Breaking changes**

The old enable variable has no effect. Preview operators must enable the
setting once. Apply the additive consent-request migration before
deploying the tenant, then deploy the compatible Cloud broker. Existing
direct requests and grants keep their behavior.

## What Changed

- Simplify OAuth and device consent: show the Paperclip logo beside
“Connect {client} to Paperclip”, fall back to “your assistant”, and show
the identifying origin plus its favicon below, with the callback URL
also visible when different. Remove the hosted-organization creation
action. Default to the first available organization without silently
changing it on refetch; preserve company restrictions and write
opt-outs. Keep the button row contained on narrow screens.
- Make Copy invitation the primary action, using the shared animated
AgentSetupPrompt and a collapsed manual setup section with icon-labeled
line tabs. Remove redundant link actions, copy-status text, the extra
first-prompt well and revocation explanation from the setup page. Serve
shared version-aware HTML and Markdown instructions without private
organization data.
- Support guarded Client ID Metadata Documents alongside dynamic
registration, and include authorization response issuer identification.
- Add RFC 8628 device authorization with separately hashed codes,
expiry, shared request quotas, persistent polling backoff and atomic
redemption. Reuse human consent, role checks, scoped grants, audit and
revocation.
- Add CLI device login and a local stdio bridge. Store credentials
separately with private permissions and serialize rotating refreshes.
- Add device consent stories and five cold-start paid Product E2E cases
with independent grant, configuration and durable-work assertions.

- Add `enablePublicMcp` to the settings validator, normalizer, feature
catalog, and toggle UI. Check it live for OAuth, tools, subscriptions,
and event delivery. Keep connection management and revocation available
while disabled.
- Default the MCP origin to the existing auth public URL, with strict
validation and an explicit override.
- Persist the optional OAuth `company_id` restriction. Describe only
that company and reject approval for any other company, even if the
person belongs to both. Keep active-membership and role checks.
- Show the Paperclip icon and a large organization icon during consent.
Return the saved company logo through the company-scoped request
response and reuse the standard fallback icon. Use the requested concise
permission labels: “Read all of your Paperclip data” and “Allow write
access and creating tasks as me”. Use concise permission copy, retain a
compact client and callback-origin disclosure, and remove the footer
link.
- Default requested write access on for eligible roles. Preserve opt-out
across organization changes and refetch, reset defaults for a new
request, and submit read-only access when the request or role does not
allow writes. Align the shared checkbox with its label.
- Use organization wording in consent, management, settings, and
walkthroughs. Keep the organization fixed for hosted requests and retain
direct-instance choice.
- Add an Assistant Connection (MCP) card to the Connectors catalog, a
setup page in the app shell, and a return link from Experimental
settings. Include Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, and generic remote MCP
instructions.
- Read the live gate and canonical server URL through authenticated
setup metadata. Show only the current person’s grants for the selected
organization, refresh after consent, and support revocation. Surface
catalog status failures with an explicit retry action; do not present
them as an empty connection list. Opening setup grants no authority.
- Start the eight guided chapters in Connections. Keep presenter notes
and chapter controls around real product pages in the app shell. Explain
the terminal, consent, delegation, retrieval, and revocation handoffs.
Mark conversation examples as illustrative. Cover first use, client
setup, connected, loading, and error states. Keep the existing consent
and management stories.
- Keep the paid-eval setup and browser helper aligned with the setting
and consent button.

## Verification

- Warm-standby integration fix `ec64ea05e`: public MCP ingress now
follows the Cloud claim guard; MCP and discovery paths return 503
instead of SPA HTML while unclaimed. Event polling checks the in-memory
claim before reading the persisted experimental setting. All 97 focused
OAuth/Cloud tests and server typecheck pass, including new request and
timer regressions for idle-before-claim and resume-after-claim behavior.
Fresh review is 5/5 with no unresolved threads, and all security scans
pass on this final head. All browser shards, typecheck, build, canary
installation and other test groups passed on the first attempt. The
unchanged Cursor sandbox default-command test timed out at 10 seconds;
the exact test passed locally without edits in 587 ms. The single
failed-job retry passed, with the original failure retained in workflow
37500711895. All 54 final-head checks pass on
`ec64ea05e9a03e2179d4e2f84c2de03761f7ce26` (two optional Storybook jobs
are intentionally skipped).

- Final master integration `8457828fc`: merged foundation #14846 and
current master, preserving the invitation changes and all 33 files from
the two newer upstream changes. No migration renumbering was required.
All 95 focused OAuth/Cloud integration tests, full recursive typecheck
and token gates pass. All CI gates passed on that integration head;
review identified the warm-standby issue fixed above.

- Security-review fix `8c1d0b696`: commit shared global/per-source
admission before outbound CIMD work, preserve failed-attempt receipts,
and validate resource/scope before fetching. Added migration
`0305_chubby_vin_gonzales.sql` and six concurrent/adversarial regression
cases. All 69 OAuth/metadata tests, 26 migration checks, full recursive
typecheck and production build pass. The security scanner passed that
commit. Follow-up `87f9658e7` limits only actual cache-miss fetches; 18
authorization requests sharing one proxy across two service instances
use just two fetches. All 70 OAuth/metadata tests and server typecheck
pass after that refinement. Final follow-up `8ebeae84c` reports
admission-storage failures as retryable HTTP 503 instead of invalid
client metadata. Its regression proves no outbound request before
admission and successful retry after storage recovers. All 71
OAuth/metadata tests and server typecheck pass. Final-head security
scanning passes; Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved findings. CI passed
all browser shards, typecheck, build, token gates and canary
installation. One unchanged adapter-utils bridge test raced a
response-file write (expected a JSON error, received the safe
file-changed error). The exact test passed locally without edits. The
single failed-job retry passed; the original failure is retained in
workflow 37490609192. All 54 checks now pass on final head
`8ebeae84ca77c0cf7ac12c2006f0f8743fe50e0b`, with security scan and fresh
Greptile 5/5 and no unresolved threads. Foundation #14846 subsequently
merged as `e34abee670069cca84afb2efb86041bce7dccbec`; the final
integration above now targets master.

- Integration with current master: preserved the new Connections source
filters and pagination, kept all eval suites, and regenerated the
consent/device snapshots as migrations 0303/0304. All four MCP migration
SQL hashes are unchanged from the staging versions. Full recursive
typecheck and production build, 132 focused UI tests (including catalog
filtering), 89 server authorization/settings tests, 26 migration tests,
120 eval calibration tests and token gates pass. Review follow-up
`4820ce74c` also keeps active assistant grants in Installed, with
pending/error recovery and revocation/company-isolation coverage. All 76
setup/catalog tests, UI typecheck and token gates pass after that fix.
The unchanged signoff browser test timed out waiting for a heartbeat in
CI at `4820ce74c`; the exact test passed locally without code changes,
and the preceding CI head passed that shard. That same unchanged test
failed at the reviewer stage in the next CI run. All five signoff tests
passed three times locally (15/15), without test changes. All eight
browser shards pass at final head `8ebeae84c`; no browser-test edits or
failed-browser-job retries were needed.

- Setup-page refinement at `9ab009178`: all 17 focused setup/consent
tests pass, along with UI typecheck, production build, Storybook build
and token gates. Browser exercised the shared prompt preview and client
tab switching, and the updated InvitationCopied Storybook interaction
checks its clipboard fixture. All final-head CI checks pass at
`9ab009178`, with no unresolved review findings. Deployed successfully
to Butter in
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/actions/runs/37475189524.
Verified the actual page, tab switching and line styling, removed
actions/copy, and successful native copy/paste of the complete Butter
invitation into a local-only test field. The existing Claude grant was
left intact.
- Consent follow-up at `dc8e9fd11`: all 10 consent tests and token gates
pass. UI typecheck and production build passed again at `4e4d5e4d9`;
Storybook build and eval-helper typecheck passed for `28101cf91`.
Follow-ups let the primary button wrap on narrow screens, preserve a
distinct callback URL, and use only bundled icons to avoid pre-consent
requests to client-selected sites. Browser-verified the real consent
component in desktop and 320px mobile stories, including default
selection, write access and preserved opt-out. Updated E2E
heading/default-selection helpers. All CI checks passed at `dc8e9fd11`,
with review 5/5 and no unresolved threads. The Butter preview
publication needed a retry because npm initially accepted the DB package
before making it visible; the retry succeeded and `dc8e9fd11` deployed.
Verified a fresh, unapproved native Codex CIMD request on Butter:
default organization/write selection, known-client heading and icon,
distinct callback origin, and removed creation action. No grant was
approved for this UI check. Prior paid runs below retain their exact
source provenance; this UI-only follow-up did not rerun paid
qualification.
- Source-pinned paid matrix at
`2992ef2710f47230e7f484c709c6ba02524f884c`: **15/15 passed**, five cases
each on GPT-5.4 Mini, Claude Haiku and Sonnet. Campaign
`local-2026-10-06T02-41-14-462Z`. Covers cold start, existing config,
unavailable host, denied consent and reconnect/later retrieval, with
independent configuration/grant/task/run/document assertions. Original
failures, transcripts, source fingerprints and billing remain retained.
- Final instruction follow-up `cda8178af`: **3/3 cold starts passed** on
Mini, Haiku and Sonnet. Campaign `local-2026-10-06T02-58-30-041Z`.
Latest `0637b9f1c` shares that same guidance across HTML, Markdown and
manual UI after review; generated Markdown is verified byte-identical to
the paid-evaluated version. Shared build, server/UI typechecks, token
gates and 63 auth/metadata tests passed again. Every CI gate passed at
prior HEAD `0637b9f1c`, with review 5/5 and no unresolved threads.
- Other focused checks: 11 CLI credential/refresh-lock tests, 120 eval
calibration tests, server/UI/eval typechecks, token gates and Storybook
build passed. Full recursive typecheck and production build passed
during implementation; CI also passed them at `2992ef271`.
- Local full-suite limitations: a large-file Git streaming test times
out on this Mac, and broader CLI/route runs hit DB hook timeouts. Fresh
MCP reruns passed, and the corresponding CI groups passed. No claim that
the local full suite is green.
- Actual clients: Codex 0.153.4 and Claude Code 2.1.245 reach CIMD
consent; device CLI reaches verification/consent. New grants await human
approval. Existing local OpenCode retrieved a saved result in a fresh
conversation through its previously approved grant.
- Fresh OpenCode 1.18.17 on Butter: started with no MCP config, received
the exact copied invitation, read public setup, configured its server
and started PKCE consent. Its shell command timed out; background retry
reached the client's own callback deadline while approval remained
pending. Latest instructions cover that handoff. **No completed Butter
read/delegation/result retrieval is claimed.**
- Cloud companion
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/672 passes
checks/review and deployed. Anonymous setup and device-protocol routing
verified. Core `2992ef271` deployed successfully and the actual Claude
web flow now reaches consent. Its extra JWT-bearer metadata is filtered
to implemented grants; unsupported token grants remain rejected. Final
`0637b9f1c` deployed successfully to Butter in
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/actions/runs/37409195300;
live HTML and Markdown both contain the final guidance. The superseded
instruction-only build was canceled before deployment. This is a
core-only staging preview; private Cloud plugins are omitted. ChatGPT
web is signed out, so browser connector use is unverified.
- Screenshot gallery begins at Butter's dashboard and distinguishes real
setup/pending consent from local reuse and fixtures. It records the
timeout finding. New persistent access needs human confirmation before
the remaining actual-client acceptance work.
- Manual path: Connectors → Assistant Connection (MCP) → Copy invitation
→ paste into assistant → configure and start authorization → sign in and
approve → verify `paperclip_connection` → delegate → retrieve the saved
report later.
- Plan and instructions: `doc/plans/2026-10-05-assistant-invitations.md`
and `doc/public-mcp.md`.

## Risks

- Apply additive, replay-safe migration `0304_curvy_shadow_king.sql`
before using device authorization. The public setup link carries no
credential. Device codes and tokens stay private; neither sharing
instructions nor installing a plugin authorizes access.
- Apply additive migration `0305_chubby_vin_gonzales.sql` before
deploying the shared metadata admission gate. It retains at most 60
short-lived, hashed-source receipts per instance and rejects excess
attempts with 429.
- CIMD metadata fetching is a new external-input boundary. It requires
HTTPS, exact client ID and redirect validation, bounded responses and
guarded DNS/network access. Client names remain self-reported.
- Device support is per-instance. The central Cloud broker retains its
existing grant support. Host installation and tool reload capabilities
vary by client; instructions describe manual settings and restart
requirements.

- Consent names the registered client in its heading and displays its
identifying origin below. Known-origin icons are bundled; all other
origins show a neutral site icon without contacting client-selected
sites. Client names are self-reported; the callback origin is the
recipient check. The Cloud chooser also displays the original client and
receiving origin before tenant handoff.

- A user who accepts the preselected write permission can create tasks
and comments. Task creation and comments can start or wake agents and
use execution budget; the consent label uses the concise wording
explicitly requested by the maintainer. Scope requests, role checks, and
the final Connect action still apply.
- Migration `0303_supreme_garia.sql` adds one nullable UUID column with
`IF NOT EXISTS`. Requests without a company restriction keep the
direct-instance picker. The binding stays recorded if its company is
deleted; consent then fails closed.
- Deploy tenant support before the Cloud broker sends `company_id`.
Unknown or inaccessible organizations must never fall back to a
different company.
- The setting defaults off. Disabling access does not cancel work
already delegated. Existing tokens and unexpired subscriptions can
resume when enabled again; revocation remains separate.
- The catalog entry is visible for discovery while the feature is off.
Setup instructions, OAuth, and tool execution remain gated. No access is
granted by viewing the entry.
- Assistant sign-in starts in the external client so it owns PKCE and
callback state. Client command syntax can change and links to official
setup documentation are included.
- An authenticated instance and valid public URL are required. Hosting,
paid execution, and store publication remain separate rollout steps.

OpenAI GPT-6 in Codex, with tool use and code execution. The exact
serving model version and context window are not exposed in this

DottaandPaperclip e34abee670 feat(mcp): connect assistants to a team with user OAuth (#14846)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip gives teams durable tasks, agent execution, budgets, and
approvals.
> - People also use assistants in Codex, Claude, and other MCP clients.
> - Those assistants need a scoped connection that preserves the
person’s permissions and attribution.
> - Delegating a task must not turn the assistant into the assigned
agent.
> - This PR adds opt-in user OAuth, ten first-party tools, browser
consent, and workflow packages.
> - Paid product evals verify the resulting tasks, documents,
attribution, retries, and access boundaries.
> - The team keeps working after the assistant conversation ends.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

A person cannot connect an external assistant to an existing team
through browser consent and safely delegate durable work as themselves.

**Proposed solution**

Expose an opt-in `/mcp/paperclip` endpoint with individually described
first-party operations. Bind every connection to a person, client,
company, resource, and scopes. Reuse domain authorization and
scheduling. Package shared team-review, delegation, and follow-up
workflows for OpenAI/Codex and Claude.

**Alternatives considered**

Related PRs #9393 and #12549 cover earlier remote MCP and board-operator
approaches. This change uses user OAuth and a bounded public catalog. It
does not expose a generic executor, operator administration, static
shared board credentials, or external agent execution. Registry listing
work in #9851 is a separate distribution step.

**Roadmap alignment**

This maintainer-requested implementation extends the governed MCP
gateway, activity attribution, durable work products, and hosted
deployment direction in `ROADMAP.md`. It implements the first release of
the saved design plan; external agent participation and granted
third-party tools remain later releases.

## What Changed

- Add MCP 2.0 discovery and task status/comment/document Events on the
same authenticated endpoint. Persist subscriptions and delivery
receipts, verify HTTPS callbacks, sign Standard Webhooks, encrypt
callback material, recheck permissions/Cloud membership, and bound
retries/expiry. Older MCP clients keep their existing tools.
- Add discovery, dynamic client registration, S256 PKCE, resource
validation, rotating refresh tokens, revocation, and company consent.
Store credentials as hashes and recheck membership at execution.
- Add tools for connection identity, agents/projects, task
search/read/create, human comments, documents/deliverables, and
pending-approval links. Preserve current domain permissions and
scheduling.
- Add durable mutation receipts across reconnects. Matching retries
replay results; uncertain outcomes keep the same request ID and require
inspection.
- Add consent and connection-management pages, OAuth log redaction,
shared plugin workflows, and separate OpenAI/Codex and Claude package
outputs.
- Add eight paid Product E2E cases across three models, independent
durable-state grading, usage evidence, cleanup, and report integration.
Add task-document guidance and regenerate the runner capability
inventories.
- Add migrations 0301 and 0302, the dated implementation plan, result
notes, and direct-client setup instructions in `doc/public-mcp.md`.

## Verification

- Merge integration `e180b1948`: resolved conflicts with current master,
preserved both eval registries, regenerated capability catalogs, and
regenerated migrations as 0301/0302 while keeping the original
replay-safe SQL byte-identical. Local migration safety/snapshot tests
(26), MCP/OAuth tests (38), redaction/OpenAPI tests (71), and eval
catalog/grading tests (198) pass. Token and capability gates pass. Full
recursive typecheck passed. Fresh Greptile review is 5/5 with no
unresolved findings. CI is green on this exact head (55 successes, two
intentional skips, one neutral result): one unchanged Cursor sandbox
test timed out at 10 seconds, then passed locally in 856 ms. A single
retry of that failed shard and the aggregate workflow passed. Merge
remains blocked on the repository code-owner approval rule.

Earlier checks passed at `6aa0962d4fb715f2190bb7bb22efacab2e58495d`: 55
successes, two intentional skips and one neutral result. [The earlier CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36901592350)
includes all test shards, browser tests, typecheck, build and canary dry
run. Greptile was 5/5 on that commit with no unresolved review threads.
GitHub still requires code-owner review under the repository merge
rules; passing checks do not bypass that approval. Paid source
fingerprints remain separate below and in the dated result note.

- Paid Events qualification passes **3/3**: GPT-5.4 Mini, Claude Haiku
4.5 and Claude Sonnet 4.6. Each uses a real public HTTPS callback,
signature verification and report retrieval in a fresh conversation. A
final Mini regression passes after the quota/status fixes. All evidence
validates. Bounded tunnel startup retries occur before provider calls
and remain visible; failed earlier attempts retain their original
grades.
- The earlier complete seven-case matrix passes **21/21**, with a
separate **3/3** delegation regression. Two preceding matrices also
passed 21/21 each. A complete 24-cell matrix including Events has not
been run. [The dated
results](doc/plans/2026-10-01-public-mcp-paid-eval-results.md) retain
exact source fingerprints, failures, model IDs and partial costs.
- Node 24: repository-wide `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass
after merging master. Server typecheck passes after the final
quota/status changes. Eval typecheck and all 892 eval-support tests
pass.
- All 33 real MCP/OAuth tests pass. The preceding combined MCP,
redaction, private-address and DNS-rebinding run passed 129 tests; two
later MCP regressions cover quota reuse and unchanged-status
suppression. All 28 adjacent issue-tree/stale-lock route tests pass. CI
then found a null checkout result in the existing concurrent-workspace
path; logging now uses optional status access. All 12 closed-workspace
tests and all 33 MCP tests pass after that correction. The exact-start
event calibration exposed a timestamp gap; scanning now includes the
subscription start, with all 33 MCP tests and server typecheck passing.
These two narrow corrections follow the paid regression.
- A real Core → Cloud → Core authority round trip passes OAuth, MCP 2.0
subscription/delivery, current membership loss, unsubscribe, legacy SDK
tools, refresh and revocation. Its callback transport is a fixture with
independent HMAC verification. The paid Events campaigns separately
prove public HTTPS delivery.
- Earlier component qualification passed UI 7,117 tests, CLI 502, shared
832, skills catalog 20, database 160 and OpenAPI 10. Token gates, module
boundaries, migration order and plugin regeneration passed. CI covers
general/serialized suites, eight browser shards, runner checks,
typecheck, build and canary dry run.
- **Local full-suite limitation:** the earlier monolithic run was not
clean. It encountered overlapping schema rebuilding, Mac database
shared-memory limits and isolated CLI/fixture failures. Targeted reruns
passed. The existing >32 MiB Git filename stress test still hit its
300-second Mac timeout. The additional serialized sweep stopped after 62
passing suites once CI passed. Original failures and partial logs
remain; this PR does not claim a wholly green local monolithic run.
- Local Codex CLI and Claude Code OAuth login and MCP SDK
interoperability were verified. Public-store installation, actual
ChatGPT Work Cloud Events UI, staging HTTPS client behavior and hosted
newcomer provisioning remain release gates.

Enablement is moving to **Settings → Experimental → Assistant
connections (MCP)** in the stacked follow-up
[#14933](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/14933). Merge
both for the intended setup experience. This foundation branch alone
still uses `PAPERCLIP_PUBLIC_MCP_ENABLED=true`. After deployment, set
`PAPERCLIP_PUBLIC_URL` to the authenticated instance's HTTPS origin, and
connect to `/mcp/paperclip`. Select a team and allow writes in browser
consent. Configure an available agent and budget, then delegate and
retrieve results later. For Events, rescan the deployed plugin catalog
in ChatGPT Work Cloud; the host supplies its webhook credentials when
the user asks to watch a task. See [the setup
runbook](doc/public-mcp.md).

## Risks

- Events are at-least-once and may arrive out of order. No replay cursor
is advertised. Clients must refresh finite subscriptions, read current
state and avoid comment feedback loops. Callback material uses the
instance secrets master key; hosted subscriptions require the updated
Cloud broker and are bounded to five minutes/the access proof expiry.
- ChatGPT Work Cloud/dot event UI, plugin rescan and a hosted staging
subscription remain deployment gates. Local signed-webhook and paid
model evidence does not claim those surfaces have been exercised.
- Disabled by default. Merging adds schema and opt-in code; it does not
deploy a public endpoint, publish a store listing, create a team, or
start paid agents.
- Migrations 0301 and 0302 are additive and idempotent. Their SQL is
unchanged from the earlier preview numbers, so hash-aware upgrade
reconciliation preserves prior staging applications. Normal instance
upgrades must apply it before enabling MCP.
- Task creation and comments can schedule paid agent work. Consent and
tool descriptions disclose that effect. Revocation blocks future calls
but does not undo delegated work.
- Public deployments need edge rate limits and credential-safe logging.
Internal dispatch is restricted to the closed catalog and carries a
request-local verified actor.
- Hosted onboarding requires the companion Cloud broker, encryption-key
configuration, and tenant rollout. Self-hosted direct connections can
use this PR alone.
- Store acceptance and agent-mode participation are not claimed.
Checked-in plugin endpoints are development defaults; rebuild packages
for a real deployment before installation.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 in Codex, with reasoning, tool use, and code execution. A
more specific serving version and context-window size were not exposed
by the session. Paid eval models: `gpt-5.4-mini-2026-03-17`,
`claude-haiku-4-5-20251001`, and `claude-sonnet-4-6`.

DottaandPaperclip 0e0b63e5a5 feat(connections): add experimental task-pinned AI routing (#14967)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - AI Connections separate account access from models and harnesses.
> - A pool must act as one connection while retaining each task’s
account.
> - Core must enforce member access and preserve session and recovery
rules.
> - A plugin supplies rotation policy without receiving credentials.
> - This change adds durable routing and native connector setup and
management.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

AI Connections, Connectors, plugins, run dispatch, and session
compatibility.

**Problem or motivation**

Operators need to rotate new tasks across saved accounts while each task
keeps its account and session. Pool setup must fit the existing
connector catalog and account workflow.

**Proposed solution**

Add an experimental router binding, a capability-gated plugin hook, and
transactional task pins. Plugins declare native pooled connectors
through `aiConnectionRouter`. Core hosts the existing-account picker,
ordering step, and account settings. Related usage contract: #14936.
Companion private plugin:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/643.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends Apps and AI Connections. Core supplies generic enforcement
and native connector UI; the private plugin owns rotation and quota
policy. The prior duplicate search found no matching router
implementation.

## What Changed

- Add a router binding without changing existing concrete bindings. Keep
the instance flag and new pools disabled by default. Require manual
operator configuration. Show no routing toggle in Experimental settings
on either open-source or Cloud installs, even after routing is enabled.
- Persist company-scoped pools, one shared cursor per pool, and pins
keyed by company, pool, agent, and task. Commit pins and cursor advances
together with revision checks and bounded retries. Persist run-ID
affinity before allocation.
- Pass only authorized metadata and normalized usage to plugins. Core
retains credential handling, member access checks, runtime
qualification, and recovery evidence. Probe outside locks with a shared
15-second budget and freshness cache.
- Resolve routing before credential preparation and backend selection.
Preserve pins through turns, session resets, removed members, and quota
waits. Retain admitted recovery after disable or uninstall.
- Separate credential session epochs from token generations. Verified
refresh preserves the epoch; reconnect and manual replacement change it.
Include the credential slot ID in session and usage-cache identity, so
reconnecting an indexed legacy account invalidates its old session even
when both epochs are zero.
- Validate pool member installations before accepting saved-agent
bindings and recheck compatibility when the harness changes. Install
only authorized members in the new-agent transaction and record their
IDs in local activity. Pool membership cannot install a restricted
shared connection.
- Preserve pool bindings when agents hire teammates through either
creation API or native caller runtime inheritance. Block stale manager
credential references; retain explicit child authentication precedence
and reject incompatible inherited pools.
- Add native connector registration through plugin metadata. Reuse the
Connectors catalog, setup header, account header, sidebar, dialogs, and
usage display. Setup selects and orders saved connections. Advanced
settings hold usage rules and member runtime defaults. New-account setup
opens in another tab.
- Use revision-checked pool archival from the Connectors catalog and
account page. Keep task pins, cursors, recovery evidence, and underlying
connections. Reject ordinary connection updates or removals that bypass
pool revisions.
- Add pool selectors, composer models, override notes, quota status, run
details, activity records, and local run-log records. Keep
session-adoption copy minimal.
- Show **Used by** below the pool connections. List current company
agents with shared avatars and profile links. Include paused agents;
exclude terminated agents and agents using another pool.
- Add Core stories for the generic connector workflow and runtime
surfaces. Cloud stories reuse these production routes and tokens through
a preview-only alias.

## Verification

- Final head `73cb953bca30ed83e4505dd820edd9b5edffd28b`: full workspace
`pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `pnpm check:token-gates` pass
locally.
- All 422 focused connector/settings/shared-contract/migration tests and
all 156 database-backed AI connection, hiring, reconnect, and
durable-routing cases pass (69 hiring cases rerun after the final
auth-precedence fix). The merged shared contract retains connection
instructions and pool metadata. The pool migration is generated at
sequence 0299 after the latest upstream migrations; this PR makes no
lockfile changes.
- All four full-app Playwright tests pass on the final head after a cold
restart and migration, against the installed private plugin and isolated
database, with no route or pool-API mocks. They cover hidden routing
controls after manual opt-in, native pool creation, ordering, membership
edits, rename, paused defaults, enabling/save/refresh persistence, stale
edits, cancellation/removal, preserved underlying accounts, unavailable
routers, and Used by avatars and profile links. Exact command:
`PAPERCLIP_CONNECTION_POOL_E2E=1
AI_CONNECTIONS_TEST_COMPANY_ID=a37b9625-5ecf-4e29-8081-04df3d6e7d6f
AI_CONNECTIONS_TEST_URL=http://127.0.0.1:3108 pnpm exec playwright test
--config tests/ai-connections-app/playwright.config.ts
connection-pools.spec.ts`.
- [Native setup, ordering, and management
screenshots](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/14967#issuecomment-6006976278)
address the review follow-up. [Earlier selector, quota, and run-detail
screenshots](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/14967#issuecomment-5971537316)
show the runtime surfaces. Core previews: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
storybook`, then **Connectors / Pool host** or **AI Connections /
Connection pools**. Cloud owns its host-backed plugin stories; both
repositories’ Operator Setup Required story assertions pass.
- Live acceptance used OpenAI/Codex and Anthropic/Claude ACPX, resumed
both exact sessions after restart, preserved pinned accounts through
explicit reset and controlled quota deferral/recovery, and committed
only two allocations across fourteen runs. A later UI-created task test
again rotated OpenAI then Anthropic and resumed OpenAI through
follow-up/restart/quota recovery. That later Anthropic execution was
blocked by its saved OAuth token expiring (provider 401). No live usage
probes ran.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` was attempted earlier and did not
complete because of macOS embedded PostgreSQL bootstrap/shared-memory
failures and the 40,000-file Git fixture timeout. The focused database
suites above now pass; full-suite verification is provided by the split
CI lanes. The preceding CI run had one runtime readiness timeout; it
passes locally both alone and inside the larger runtime suite. That
larger local suite also encountered an embedded PostgreSQL setup failure
and two macOS temporary-path alias assertions; those two assertions pass
with canonical TMPDIR=/private/tmp. All final-head CI checks are
terminal green, including full general/serialized server suites, Runner
checks, browser E2E shards, canary verification, build, and typecheck.
Greptile is 5/5 on that exact head with no unresolved threads.

## Risks

- The migration adds routing tables and a credential epoch column.
Install the private plugin only with the compatible Core contract.
- Routing and each pool require opt-in. Production distribution and
fleet defaults remain unchanged.
- Unknown usage stays eligible. Known pinned exhaustion waits; revoked
access requires operator repair.
- Legacy adapters require compatible members. Runner model and effort
overrides remain limited by qualified backend support.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository editing, code
execution, and browser testing. The exact deployment model ID and
context window are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip b43073d11f feat(connections): sync and group accounts managed by aggregators (#15254)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections give agents governed access to external tools.
> - Aggregator gateways can expose accounts that users already connected
upstream.
> - The Apps catalog did not show those accounts or their current
provider status.
> - Separate cards and setup tasks also made account ownership unclear.
> - This pull request discovers upstream accounts and groups them under
one app card.
> - Users can find connected apps while each provider keeps control of
its accounts.

Connections across the database, shared contracts, server, and board UI.

**Problem or motivation**

Users cannot see which apps are connected through a saved aggregator
gateway. Native and upstream accounts need one app card. Discovery must
preserve company, user, gateway, and credential boundaries.

**Proposed solution**

Sync account metadata from Composio, Arcade, and supported Executor
gateways. Keep upstream account management in each provider. Use source
chips and search to browse the catalog. Preserve native setup and the
gateway's existing access policy.

**Alternatives considered**

Creating a local executable connection for each upstream account would
duplicate authorization state. Using an agent task for routine Composio
setup would add an unnecessary step. The board now calls the saved
gateway directly for that setup.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the shipped Connected Apps and MCP Tool Gateway features in
ROADMAP.md. The duplicate search found no open PR for managed account
discovery.

Related work: Refs #13755, Refs #13941, Refs #14725, Refs #13855. Open
PR #12906 covers adjacent toolkit routing work.

## What Changed

- Add provider-neutral discovery, sync, and refresh APIs. Preserve the
Composio API paths.
- Cache observations by company, saved gateway, viewing user, and
credential version. Retain stale observations after failed or incomplete
scans.
- Add optional Arcade account sync credentials in the vault. Discover
Executor accounts through its supported inventory interface.
- Group native and upstream accounts in one app card. Imported account
menus open their provider. Gateway menus own refresh and sync setup.
- Add Paperclip, Composio, Arcade, Installed, and All chips. Show 50
catalog entries per page. Keep connected accounts above discovery. Keep
explicit provider searches scoped.
- Simplify Composio app setup and refresh its connected app list on the
gateway Permissions page.
- Add a compact agent access card and task creation defaults for
connection setup. Preserve explicit blocks and approval policies.
- Add two replay-safe migrations, service and UI tests, Storybook
journeys, and acceptance stories.

## Verification

- Passed the repository typecheck, full build, token gates, and
migration ordering check.
- Passed the focused provider adapter, connection interaction, and
catalog tests after rebasing onto master.
- Passed all nine database sync and migration replay tests using a
disposable database on the test-drive PostgreSQL cluster. Removed that
database after the run.
- Verified Arcade cursor pagination against its official Go SDK and
passed all eight adapter tests, including short and incomplete pages.
- Passed all 45 interaction tests after making the exact requested tools
and their Allowed/Ask first permissions visible before granting access.
Verified the compact card in Storybook.
- Passed the complete UI suite on the final code: 683 files and 7,432
tests, including the corrected Composio destination assertions. Passed
130 focused tests for the UUID, management-link, and health-status
corrections.
- Passed 22 Composio setup/sync tests, 23 connection-intent service
tests, and the connection migration test in separate disposable
databases. Database startup alone was substituted; the suites exercised
their real SQL and services.
- Passed all 10 OpenAPI route checks and the full-stack
connection-intent browser test, including scoped consent, agent
continuation, and task completion.
- The local full runner encountered embedded PostgreSQL startup failures
on this loaded macOS host. The earlier in-flight run also held the
pre-fix Arcade transform; a fresh run of the final provider suite
passes. The final-head CI is queued during GitHub’s active Actions
incident: https://www.githubstatus.com/. The previous run also lost
several runners simultaneously; its real catalog assertion failures are
fixed and the fresh complete UI suite passes.
- Tested the real test-drive server in the embedded browser with a live
Composio gateway. Detected Airtable and Circleback. Verified refresh
progress, account rows, source chips, search scope, and 50-entry
pagination.
- Arcade and Executor coverage uses provider fixtures. Live credentials
were unavailable.
- Storybook builds successfully and includes grouped native/provider
accounts, stale and unavailable discovery, optional Arcade setup, and
mobile states. The acceptance document records the simulated and live
coverage separately.

- Greptile reviewed final commit
`217b024c27b5933e773ce9419c4e92b1032042c6` at 5/5. All six review
threads are resolved, security scans pass, and the PR has no merge
conflicts. The outstanding remote checks are `ci / Select trusted
runner` and `review`, queued by GitHub. They need to complete before
merge.

## Risks

- Provider response changes can break inventory discovery. Failed scans
retain observations and show stale status.
- Composio scans only the supported catalog and can take time. Large
inventories run in the background with progress and a bounded lease.
- Arcade requires a project API key and user ID when the gateway cannot
supply them. This key is used only for discovery.
- Executor discovery depends on the server's exposed inventory tools.
Unsupported servers report unavailable discovery.
- Cached account rows do not grant access or create executable
connections. Gateway policies still govern tool use. Account deletion
and per-app authorization remain upstream.
- The migrations add tables and one nullable column. Replay preserves
existing rows and company-scoped foreign keys.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The session does not expose a more
specific serving model ID or context limit. Used reasoning, repository
tools, code execution, and browser verification.

DottaandPaperclip 7498705642 fix(ui): stabilize mobile task reading and document navigation (#15228)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - People read tasks and send instructions from phones as well as
desktop browsers.
> - The mobile footer let page text show through its labels, and small
text fields made Safari zoom on focus.
> - Small scroll changes made the footer switch direction, and its
changing page padding moved the conversation.
> - Task pages also showed comments before question cards and run
history arrived, so the composer and reading position moved again.
> - Document links also used native navigation, which reset the reading
position or reloaded a task through its UUID URL. Desktop tabs were
crowded in the mobile drawer.
> - This pull request keeps navigation steady, opens documents in the
mounted task, and gives mobile readers a full-height panel with a
vertical tab selector.
> - The benefit is a stable task view and smoother scrolling on mobile.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The mobile footer was translucent. Safari zoomed when a person focused a
small text field. The footer switched abruptly while scrolling. A large
task could show saved comments, then move the page again when a question
card or run history arrived. In a local test with delayed responses, a
late question moved the mobile composer by about 374 pixels. Opening a
plan from the feed could reset the view or reload the task through a
UUID link. The mobile document drawer left part of the feed exposed
above small desktop tab controls.

**Expected behavior**

The footer has an opaque surface and moves smoothly after deliberate
scrolling. Text fields do not cause automatic focus zoom. A task shows
its initial conversation and composer together at the final scroll
position. Background refreshes keep the existing conversation visible.
Document links open in the mounted task with its existing cache and
reading position. Mobile documents fill the viewport, show a clear close
button, and offer a vertical list of open tabs.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open a task with many long comments and a pending question in iOS
Safari.
2. Delay its interactions, activity, and runs responses by different
amounts.
3. Reload the page and watch the conversation and composer move as each
response arrives.
4. Scroll down and back up, including small direction changes and edge
bounce.
5. Focus the task composer, search field, and new-task title and
description.
6. Open a plan or another task document from the feed, including a link
that uses the task UUID. Close the panel and check the reading position.
7. Open several documents on a phone. Switch tabs and close both active
and inactive tabs.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Developed from `1c07b5903` and rebased onto `59015846a`.

**Deployment mode**

Built from source. Tested in an isolated local test drive with iOS 26.5
Simulator Safari and Chrome. A temporary local proxy delayed independent
responses for the layout test.

Related work found in the duplicate search:

- Refs #14727. It made saved replies appear before supporting history.
This PR keeps its parallel requests and narrows the tradeoff in favor of
a stable first layout.
- Refs #14667. This open PR takes a different approach with per-run
placeholders and retries. This PR fixes the observed question/composer
movement and mobile navigation behavior.
- Refs #13095 and #13597. These earlier fixes added task scroll anchors
and skipped transcript waits for scheduled retries.
- Refs #6550. Earlier mobile board polish.
- Refs #9467. This related open PR changes list and generic tab reflow.
The task-pane selector uses a separate component.

## What Changed

- Give the mobile footer an opaque semantic surface.
- Set a base-size floor for editable text on touch devices to prevent
Safari focus zoom. Preserve larger title text.
- Share mobile scroll tracking between both layouts. Accumulate scroll
distance, ignore edge bounce and changed document bounds, and update
once per frame.
- Use shared motion tokens for the footer and composer. Keep page
padding stable and honor reduced motion.
- Wait for the initial question cards, attachments, work products,
activity, runtime selection, plan, and relevant transcript history
before the first reveal. Skip scheduled retries and older runs outside
the initial comment window.
- Bound the first reveal to 15 seconds. A stalled supporting request
leaves saved conversation and the composer accessible with an explicit
loading notice.
- Keep concealed mobile history from stretching the document. Keep the
composer mounted but concealed until the same reveal. Keep both visible
during later refreshes.
- Route first and repeated same-task document clicks in place. Recognize
UUID and identifier links. Preserve the thread history entry and feed
position. Keep modifier clicks, downloads, external links, and classic
document behavior.
- Give the mobile task panel the full viewport and safe-area padding.
Use a visible X and 44-pixel touch controls. Replace the horizontal tab
strip with a vertical selector that wraps titles and supports keyboard
focus.
- Add four interactive Storybook states for a few tabs, long names, many
tabs, and the last tab. Reuse the production selector and tab
controller.
- Add navigation and tab regressions, update first-reveal regressions,
and document the behavior in `DESIGN.md`.

## Verification

- 392 tests passed across the seven focused task-loading, scroll,
mobile-navigation, layout, and composer suites. After review fixes, all
339 tests across the four affected suites passed, including
stalled-loading fallback on mobile and desktop and the motion-token
catalog.
- All 442 focused document, tab, task-thread, and scroll tests pass. The
final click-propagation cleanup also passes all 136 task-detail tests.
UI typecheck, UI production build, and `pnpm check:token-gates` passed.
- All four cases in `artifact-tab-arrival.spec.ts` and
`text-attachment-tabs.spec.ts` pass locally, covering desktop and mobile
selection, composer focus, document rendering, and downloads of the
original bytes.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build-storybook` passed. Open the
mobile tab stories under `Prototypes/Task detail/Mobile tabs`.
- A local diagnostic proxy measured cached plan content at about 250 ms
after the first click. The HTML load count and task request count did
not change. Feed scroll stayed at the same position. First, repeated,
and UUID document links were tested at phone and desktop widths.
Task-reference links close their preview before the document reader
opens.
- In Chrome at desktop and phone widths, the delayed-response task
showed one complete reveal. The late question no longer moved an already
visible composer.
- In iOS Simulator Safari, verified the large-task reload, opaque
footer, navigation hide/reveal, and search/new-task/composer focus
without automatic zoom.
- Full workspace typecheck and build passed. The updated UI also passes
typecheck, production build, and token gates.
- All 54 checks pass on the final commit
`bf5c9914e61833e7cc8794a69d72cf8c7057b952` (two additional checks are
intentionally skipped). Greptile reviewed that commit at 5/5, and all
review threads are resolved.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` was attempted but stopped after
server-fixture failures. Embedded PostgreSQL startup failure reproduced
in an isolated native-interaction fixture after five startup attempts.
The broad run also reported a rapid Slack callback ordering test
failure. These server paths are unchanged by this PR, and their CI
shards pass on the latest head. The full local suite is not claimed as
passing.
- A localhost proxy stalled the activity response for 30 seconds. Chrome
revealed the available conversation after the 15-second deadline at both
desktop and phone widths, kept the composer accessible, and cleared the
loading notice when the response arrived.

## Risks

Slow initial history requests can delay the first conversation reveal by
up to 15 seconds. If that deadline expires, late data can change the
available conversation while a loading notice remains visible. The
reveal waits only for runs in the initial comment window, and later
refreshes do not conceal an existing conversation. The larger editable
text can change line wrapping on phones. Mobile navigation and composer
motion use shared tokens and respect reduced-motion settings. Mobile tab
selection changes the control layout. Document links retain URL history
while sharing the task reading position; other tasks and external links
keep their normal navigation behavior.

I checked `ROADMAP.md`. This is a fix for existing UI behavior.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 in Codex. The runtime does not expose a more specific model
ID or context-window size. The agent used reasoning, code editing,
terminal tools, and Chrome and iOS Simulator testing.

1c07b5903b feat: Chat leads the left nav, agent work beside chats, and a Combined Inbox + Task List flag (#15100)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The left nav is the main way people move between tasks, the inbox,
and Agent Chat
> - The nav has separate Inbox and Tasks rows that show overlapping
work, and Chat is one row among many
> - The side panel beside a chat shows the conversation's own artifacts,
not the work the agent did
> - People want Chat to be easy to find, and they want one place for
their task views
> - This pull request moves Chat to the top of Work, shows the agent's
tasks and artifacts beside each chat, and adds an experimental flag that
folds Inbox into Tasks
> - The benefit is a shorter nav and a chat view that shows what the
agent is working on. Both changes stay off until an operator enables
them

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14706 (the secondary Agent Chat navigation this change builds on)
Refs #14848 (reopen the last visited agent chat)

**Subsystem affected**
UI navigation (left nav, mobile tab bar), Agent Chat side panel, task
list and inbox, and the company artifacts API.

**Problem or motivation**
Inbox and Tasks are two nav rows for overlapping work. Chat sits in the
top group with no clear home. The chat rail lists only agents you
already talked to, so you cannot see your other teammates there. The
side panel beside a chat shows only the conversation's own artifacts. It
does not show the tasks and files the agent made.

**Proposed solution**
With Agent Chat on, Chat leads the Work section and the rail lists every
eligible agent. The chat side panel opens on the agent's tasks as cards,
and the agent's artifacts are available from +. A new experimental flag,
Combined Inbox + Task List, makes Inbox a set of views inside Tasks.

**Alternatives considered**
Rebuilding the inbox inside the task list. Instead, `/issues` hosts the
existing Inbox component for inbox views and the existing task list for
status views, so all inbox behaviour stays the same.

**Roadmap alignment**
Agent Chat (ROADMAP.md, "Agent Chat (including CEO Chat)"). All changes
are behind experimental flags that are off by default.

## What Changed

- **Agent Chat nav (streamlined shell):** Chat is the first row of Work,
not a top-group row. Workspaces leaves the nav while Agent Chat is on.
The mobile tab bar is Home · Chat · + · Tasks · Agents. The legacy shell
keeps master's top-group Chat row.
- **Chat rail:** `AgentConversationsSidebar` lists every eligible agent.
The open chat is first, then conversations by recent activity, then the
rest of the roster alphabetically. Terminated agents and agents you left
are omitted unless you have history with them. The picker still marks
only real conversations as "Open chat".
- **Chat side panel:** a new default Tasks tab shows one card per task
the agent created, was assigned, commented on, or acted on, newest
first. It has the task list's filter popover and a sort control. **+ →
Artifacts** shows the agent's artifacts as cards. Cards open in a new
tab. Agent Chat off keeps the old Artifacts tab.
- **Artifacts API:** `GET /api/companies/:companyId/artifacts` accepts
`agentId`. The filter applies to documents, work products, and
attachments by the agent each result is attributed to. The shared
validator and the UI client carry the new parameter, and the OpenAPI
entry picks it up from the shared schema.
- **Combined Inbox + Task List flag (`enableCombinedInboxTasks`, off by
default):** new card in Settings > Experimental. The Inbox row goes away
and its badge moves to Tasks. A Views menu on `/issues` covers Mine,
Unread, Blocked, Recent, Everything, All, Active, Backlog, and Done.
Bare `/issues` opens the last-used view (default Mine). Links that carry
`assignee`, `workspace`, `participantAgentId`, or `q` open All so the
filter is kept. `/inbox/*` and
`/issues/{all,active,backlog,done,recent}` redirect to the matching
view. `/inbox/requests` stays its own page.
- **Task detail breadcrumb:** the view key now decides the source, so
quick-archive still works after a reload from an inbox view.
- **Docs:** `doc/PRODUCT.md` and `doc/SPEC.md` describe the chat rail,
the chat side panel, and the new flag.

## Verification

- `cd ui && npx vitest run --no-file-parallelism src/components/chat
src/components/task-side-panel/TaskSidePanel.test.tsx
src/components/AgentConversationsSidebar.test.tsx
src/components/Sidebar.test.tsx

src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx
src/lib/task-views.test.ts src/lib/issueDetailBreadcrumb.test.ts
src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx src/pages/Issues.test.tsx src/App.test.tsx
src/App.activity-routing.test.tsx
src/components/MobileBottomNav.test.tsx
src/components/CommandPalette.test.tsx`: 20 files, 356 tests pass.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/company-artifacts-service.test.ts`: 13/13 pass, including
the new agent-filter test across all three artifact sources.
- The new rail test fails against the unmodified rail.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: all gates clean.
- Manual: enable Agent Chat in Settings > Experimental. Open Chat. The
rail lists all agents. Open a chat. The side panel shows the agent's
tasks. Use **+ → Artifacts** to see the agent's artifacts. Then enable
Combined Inbox + Task List. The Inbox row goes away, and Tasks shows a
Views menu.
- Snapshot baselines are intentionally not updated. See
`doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md`, "Per-change snapshot verification
demoted to dormant (Jul 13 2026)".

## Risks

- With both flags off, the app behaves like master. The only exception
is the API: it accepts a new optional query parameter.
- With Agent Chat on, the rail can list many agents in a large company.
It uses the agent list the app already loads, and search filters it.
- The Tasks panel reads at most 200 recently updated tasks per agent and
says so when it reaches the limit. The Artifacts panel reads at most 500
of the agent's artifacts.
- Combined Inbox + Task List changes what bare `/issues` opens for
people who enable it. Deep links with a task filter still open All.

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic), model ID `claude-opus-5-5`, through Claude Code
with tool use (shell, file edit, test runs). Extended thinking was
enabled.

DottaandPaperclip cc67d4e1d8 fix: preserve steering and recover stopped task conversations (#15015)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A task conversation must let a user guide a running agent and resume
stopped work.
> - The active run owns its input protocol, even when the user changes
the next model or effort.
> - Queue delivery waits for a provider receipt, which must be able to
persist during the request.
> - A stopped startup also needs a clear user action that passes normal
task admission.
> - This pull request fixes steering delivery, makes queue actions
immediate, and restores explicit continuation.
> - The benefit is a responsive conversation that can recover without
losing saved input.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A queued message could change from Steer to Interrupt while a native run
prepared. A steer request could wait on its own database lock and fail
to deliver. A stopped startup could then leave the conversation without
a working Retry or message continuation. Interrupt also waited for the
server and showed a toast.

**Expected behavior**

The active run keeps its input protocol. Steer delivers input to that
run. Steer and Interrupt clear the submitted queue rows and show the
input in the conversation immediately. Failed delivery restores the
latest queue with an inline error. An eligible stopped run offers Retry,
and authenticated user input can start a fresh turn through normal task
admission.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a task with a native Paperclip Runner.
2. Change the selected model or effort while that run prepares.
3. Queue a message and press Steer.
4. Observe the provider receipt and queue state during the request.
5. Stop a startup before its provider process begins, then try Retry or
send a new message.
6. Repeat queued delivery with a legacy runner and press Interrupt.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on the parent of this branch, `59c07ede7`.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated private deployment. The fixes also cover local task
conversations.

Related work: Refs #12834, Refs #13354, Refs #13275. The open refactor
in #13160 moves the same queue route; it does not fix the receipt lock
or stopped-run continuation addressed here.

## What Changed

- Select queue behavior from the active run's immutable dispatch and
runtime resolution.
- Leave the run row unlocked during provider acknowledgement, then lock
and read it before merging the receipt.
- Retain queued input if the target run stops during that wait. Keep
inline delivery errors visible after empty queue updates.
- Permit exact Retry and authenticated continuation after verified
native startup cancellation. Preserve pause, approval, budget,
ownership, and process-stop gates.
- Carry undelivered native queue input into a fresh turn once the old
execution is confirmed stopped.
- Show Steer and Interrupt input in the conversation and clear submitted
composer rows immediately. Restore the latest queue inline on failure.
Remove delivery toasts.
- Keep optimistic delivery stable across stale polls, empty queues, and
paginated history. Preserve classic Interrupt error handling.
- Document recovery and optimistic delivery behavior. Add regression
tests across server, shared queue projection, and UI boundaries.

## Verification

- Red-green regression tests reproduced the queue protocol, receipt
lock, stopped-startup continuation, and optimistic delivery failures.
- The focused server route, continuation, queue, and runner boundary
suites passed during implementation.
- The queue-route suite passes with 78 tests. The three complete
conversation UI suites pass with 347 tests.
- UI typecheck, production build, and `pnpm check:token-gates` pass.
- Workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. The local
monolithic `pnpm test:run` is still running; remote CI verifies the
complete suite on the latest commit.
- All CI gates pass on `bd9031ad56abfcde13d13a13488c1b9217c2fd3a`,
including the full test shards, runner verification, browser E2E,
typecheck, release registry, and canary dry run.
- Greptile reports 5/5 for that commit. Both review threads are
resolved.

## Risks

This changes queue display and explicit continuation admission. The UI
must restore rejected delivery without losing other-session edits. The
server must preserve concurrent provider result updates and must not
resume a process whose stop is uncertain. Focused tests cover these
boundaries. This change has no database migration.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, an agent based on GPT-6. The exact runtime model ID and
context window are not exposed in this session. Used reasoning,
repository tools, code execution, and browser inspection.

DottaandPaperclip d7bdfc422c fix(ui): show agent avatar and align chat header controls (#14726)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and their work.
> - Agent chat shows which agent receives each message.
> - The chat header used initials instead of the agent avatar.
> - The name and controls did not use the same center alignment.
> - This change uses the shared avatar and centers the header content.
> - Users can identify the agent and open its settings from the same
row.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
The agent chat header showed initials instead of the agent avatar. The
settings control did not align with the name and avatar.

**Expected behavior**
Show the agent avatar. Put the avatar, name, and settings control on the
same horizontal center line.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Enable Agent Chat in Experimental settings.
2. Open a conversation with an agent that has an appearance set.
3. Check the avatar and settings control in the top bar.

Related navigation work: #14706.

## What Changed

- Use `AgentAvatar` in the conversation breadcrumb.
- Update the breadcrumb key when the agent appearance changes.
- Center breadcrumb labels that have an adjacent action. Keep task
identifier baseline alignment unchanged.
- Add regression checks for avatar props, appearance changes, and center
alignment.

## Verification

- PASS: affected Vitest suites, 129 tests.
- PASS: `pnpm check:token-gates`.
- PASS: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` on an isolated retry.
- PASS: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build`.
- PASS: browser checks at 1000 and 390 CSS pixels. Avatar, name, and
settings control all have center Y = 29.5 CSS pixels.
- Screenshots use the real header and avatar renderer with isolated
context fixtures. No screenshot or fixture is part of this diff.
- Full typecheck and build cannot complete because Cargo is not
installed.
- Full tests stopped with SIGKILL. The first UI typecheck also stopped
with exit 137. These runs do not prove full-suite success.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change only affects UI rendering. It changes no API or
database contract.
- Breadcrumbs with adjacent actions now use center alignment. Ordinary
task identifiers keep baseline alignment.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex agent, with code editing, shell tools, and browser checks.
The runtime did not expose the exact model ID or context-window size.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 5b8b2b38ca feat(apps): add Neon connection (#14980)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents reach external services through the Apps catalog. Each
catalog entry is a reviewed `AppDefinition` that wires a provider's
hosted MCP server into Paperclip's shared vault, grants, policies,
gateway, and audit trail.
> - Neon is a widely used serverless Postgres provider with an official
hosted MCP server, but it is not in the catalog. Teams that run their
databases on Neon must use the generic "connect your own MCP server"
path, which has no branding, no guidance, and no project or read-only
controls.
> - The connector playbook requires a catalog entry for a provider like
this: the hosted server supports dynamic client registration and bearer
API keys, and the common definition fields can express every option
Paperclip can serialize.
> - This pull request adds the Neon definition, its official artwork,
the research and permission-review ledger rows, documentation, and
deterministic tests, without any provider-specific runtime code.
> - The benefit is a one-click, governed Neon connection with optional
project pinning and read-only mode, and a documented path to live
qualification.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Neon is a common Postgres host for the applications agents work on, but
Paperclip's Apps catalog has no Neon entry. Operators who want agents to
inspect schemas, run SQL, or manage branches must paste the MCP URL into
the generic remote-MCP flow, which gives no branding, no provider
guidance, no project boundary, and no read-only switch.

**Proposed solution**

Add a catalog-only Neon connection built from the connector playbook:
browser sign-in through Neon's dynamic client registration with the
reviewed `read` and `write` scopes, or a customer API key sent as an
Authorization bearer header. Both methods expose Neon's documented
`projectId` pin and `readonly` switch as optional Advanced fields. Every
discovered tool stays governed by the normal per-action policies.

**Alternatives considered**

A plugin was not needed because no custom UI, tables, workers, or
webhooks are involved. A separate read-only method was not added because
the playbook treats read-only switches as advanced fields rather than
methods. Neon's repeatable `category` query filter was left out because
tenant fields serialize lists as one comma-joined value, so it cannot be
sent correctly without new runtime code; per-action policies cover
catalog narrowing instead.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing self-serve remote-MCP connection catalog and
does not overlap planned core work.

## What Changed

- Added the `neon` provider to `scripts/ingest-app-definitions.mjs`
(category, API-key placement, methods, tenant fields, guidance,
warnings) and regenerated
`packages/shared/src/app-definitions/neon.json` plus the generated
registry.
- Added the Neon row to the self-serve MCP research ledger with
`dcr_or_api_key` auth and risk tier S4.
- Added permission reviews for `neon/mcp-oauth` (explicit scopes `read`,
`write`, taken from Neon's live authorization-server metadata) and
`neon/mcp-api-key` (provider key), with evidence links.
- Added Neon's official tile icon (`ui/public/brands/apps/neon.png`,
copied byte-for-byte from the icon linked by neon.com) and the brand
manifest entry.
- Added prosumer gallery copy for the Neon card.
- Added `doc/connections/NEON.md` (service involvement, endpoints,
administrator setup, capabilities and policy, manifest, brand
provenance, validation hook) and linked it from the connections README
and the permission audit.
- Tests: Neon definition shape, store visibility and artwork, URL
recognition, reviewed scopes with scope-widening rejection, URL
projection of the project pin and read-only flag, invalid project ID
rejection, the connect form's API-key gating, and the pinned catalog
counts.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/app-definitions.test.ts
packages/shared/src/app-definitions-url.test.ts` — 34 passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts` — 367 passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/pages/apps/AppsConnect.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/apps/Browse.test.tsx ui/src/lib/app-brand-assets.test.ts
ui/src/pages/apps/AppLogo.brand-assets.test.tsx` — all passed.
- `node scripts/check-app-brand-assets.mjs` and `node --test
scripts/app-brand-validation.test.mjs` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`, `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck`, `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
typecheck`, `pnpm check:token-gates` — clean.
- Manual: in a local instance, open Apps → Browse, confirm the Neon card
and icon, open `/apps/connect?source=neon`, confirm both methods, the
Advanced project pin and read-only toggle, and that Connect enables
after an API key is entered. The operator completed a live connection
against a Neon account on this build.
- Live metadata probed on 2026-10-02: both `.well-known` documents at
`mcp.neon.tech` return the recorded endpoints and scopes; an
unauthenticated `initialize` returns 401 with `resource_metadata`.

## Risks

- Low risk to existing providers: the change is additive catalog data
plus tests. The generated registry only gains one import.
- Neon's hosted server grants broad project and database management. The
definition carries two warnings, recommends a development project, and
keeps every write under the normal action policies; the read-only switch
is enforced by Neon's server, not locally.
- The permission-review ledger records live proof for both methods as
not run; the full lifecycle checklist in `doc/connections/NEON.md` still
needs a documented pass before the entry is considered fully qualified.

DottaandPaperclip 43f391e807 refactor(slack): clarify browser setup prompt from live testing (#14965)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Slack chat connections let people start and continue agent work from
Slack.
> - The setup prompt guides an agent through the Paperclip and Slack
browser interfaces.
> - A live setup completed, but several instructions did not match the
current interfaces.
> - Those gaps can send users to the wrong connection flow or leave them
waiting for controls that do not appear.
> - This pull request updates the prompt with the steps observed during
the live setup.
> - The benefit is a clearer path from a fresh instance to a verified
Slack conversation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #13920 and #14862. The first added the Slack conversation flow.
The second updated the shared setup prompt control. A search found no
duplicate open PR or matching public issue.

**Issue type**

Outdated instructions and missing setup guidance.

**Where is the issue?**

`ui/src/pages/apps/chat/SlackSetupPrompt.tsx`

**What's wrong?**

The prompt omits the Chat connectors setting on fresh instances. It uses
an old navigation label. It assumes an avatar crop dialog and a Save
button always appear. It also assumes the suggested bot username matches
Slack and that the Slack reply contains a task link.

**Suggested fix**

Use the current labels. Explain the feature prerequisite, avatar save
behavior, real mention selection, clipboard recovery, and the path to
task and run evidence.

## What Changed

- Add the Chat connectors prerequisite and current Connectors, resume,
and identity-link labels.
- Explain Slack's combined Create and Install action and how to continue
from its success page.
- Handle avatar uploads that save immediately. Require a reload to
confirm the saved icon.
- Select the real bot from Slack's mention suggestions, including names
with punctuation.
- Recover from an empty or stale clipboard without exposing credentials.
- Find the linked task through Conversations and inspect the agent's
Runs page.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/pages/apps/chat/SlackSetupPrompt.test.tsx`: 10 tests passed after
rebasing onto current master.
- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: passed.
- Full Vitest suite: passed in CI for this commit, including all server,
chat, workspace, and serialized test shards. The duplicate local `pnpm
test:run` was stopped after CI finished; it did not complete locally.
- Current-commit CI: all checks passed, including build, typecheck, E2E,
Runner verification, and canary dry run. Greptile rated the change 5/5
with no findings or unresolved review threads.
- Live browser test before the wording update: created and installed a
new Slack app, verified the callback, uploaded and reopened the avatar,
linked the configuring user's identity, and enabled the selected test
channel. The first mention received a reply. A follow-up without another
mention recalled the first message. Both agent runs succeeded.
- The wording update does not repeat Slack app installation. Existing
tests verify the complete copied prompt, clipboard fallback, and
instance URL handling.
- This is a prompt-text refactor. No runtime behavior changes, so the
existing tests cover the copied result without a new test that repeats
the wording.

## Risks

- Low risk. This change updates prompt text in one file.
- Provider interfaces can change. The prompt tells the agent to inspect
the current page and handle optional controls.
- The prompt handles the observed mention mismatch. This change does not
alter the generated suggested username.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser automation. The session does not expose an exact
runtime model ID or context window size. The live test also used an
earlier model whose exact ID was not exposed.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 144083fd48 fix(interactions): wait for workspace readiness before enabling approval (#14893)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage AI agents and review their work.
> - Task confirmations must use the work produced by their source run.
> - The server blocks approval while that run still needs to sync its
workspace.
> - The card currently enables approval before that check can pass, so
an ordinary click produces an error.
> - This PR exposes the existing readiness check and shows “Preparing
approval…” with acceptance disabled.
> - The card refreshes itself and enables approval when the source
workspace settles.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A confirmation appears while its source run is still preparing or
syncing its workspace. Its enabled approval button returns a conflict
asking the user to retry after syncing.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run an agent in an isolated workspace.
2. Have it create a confirmation before workspace finalization
completes.
3. Click the approval button while the source workspace is still active.

**Expected behavior**

The card explains that approval is preparing. Acceptance becomes
available automatically when the same server check permits it. Reject
and revise remain available.

Related work: #10770 handles this conflict after a click with retries.
#9520 proposes changing the workspace acceptance barrier. This PR
preserves that barrier and exposes readiness before the click, including
in compact task chat. It preserves the terminal-finalize behavior from
#10099.

## What Changed

- Add an optional, read-only `acceptanceBlocker` to interaction
responses. Readiness uses the existing source-run workspace predicate,
with one check per pending source run.
- Disable acceptance and show a shared preparation notice in classic and
compact confirmation cards, including checkbox and secret-binding
confirmations.
- Refresh preparing cards every two seconds in task detail, attention,
pipelines, and Skill Studio. Restore each surface's previous polling
cadence when preparation clears.
- Preserve live tool reviews, questions, rejection, revision, and the
server acceptance barrier. No automatic acceptance occurs.
- Document the preparation state and cover readiness, terminal sync
outcomes, unrelated runs, historical cards, and automatic refresh.

## Verification

- Focused service, card, query-refresh, and helper tests: 217 passed
across five files.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- `pnpm build-storybook`: passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: passed.
- `pnpm test:run`: incomplete locally. Stopped after about 17 minutes
once it reproduced seven existing environment failures: two Slack tests
and two email tests lack ancestor-directory skill fixtures; three
company-skills tests fail on macOS runtime-cache staging permissions.
These are outside this change. The full CI test matrix passed.
- CI: all 53 checks passed; two optional Storybook jobs were skipped.
The branch has no conflicts with `master`.
- Greptile: 5/5 on commit `8a6f216d8d`, with no review threads.
- Reviewed added lines and new files for credentials, private URLs,
internal task references, user paths, and run artifacts. None found.

## Risks

- No database migration or change to acceptance authorization. Readiness
is advisory; the server still enforces its existing gate at acceptance.
- An open preparing card adds a read every two seconds. This cadence
stops after readiness clears; historical cards add no workspace checks.
- Failed or stale finalization retains the existing server behavior.
This PR does not change recovery policy.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The exact serving model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session. Used reasoning,
repository inspection, tool execution, and automated tests. No
sub-agents.

DottaandPaperclip 6c1a75da49 feat(connections): make AgentMail a default connection with inline setup (#14772)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections give agents access to external services.
> - AgentMail needs both a saved key and an inbox assigned to the agent.
> - Chat requests offered a setup link instead of an inline card and
could treat a saved key as complete.
> - Inbox setup also hid address conflicts behind a generic server error
and a separate review step.
> - This pull request makes AgentMail a default connection, adds the
inline card, reduces setup to two steps, and shows conflicts beside the
address.
> - Shared native dropdown styles also give every caret a consistent
inset.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

AgentMail requests in chat did not show a usable inline connection card.
Manual setup required extra screens, ignored saved account keys, and
could trap new-address setup in a locked inbox dropdown. Agent selectors
omitted the avatar from the selected value. A taken address could
produce an HTTP 403 from AgentMail and appear as an internal server
error. Native dropdown arrows also touched the right edge of their
fields.

**Expected behavior**

Make AgentMail available as a default connection. Ask for the API key
inline, with a direct link to its provider page. Default human access to
the company and agent access to the requesting agent. Resume the agent
only after an assigned inbox is active. Manual setup should ask for an
agent and email address, then finish. Address checks should run as the
user types. Taken addresses should show clickable alternatives. A domain
dropdown beside the name should prefer a verified custom domain. Setup
should suggest authorized saved AgentMail keys and show agent avatars in
the picker and selected value.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Ask an agent to connect AgentMail when it has no assigned inbox.
2. Check that an inline API-key card appears and links to the provider's
API-key page.
3. Open AgentMail setup, choose an agent, and request an address that is
already taken.
4. Correct the inline error, refresh, and finish setup with the same
request ID.
5. Inspect native dropdown carets in light, dark, disabled, and
right-to-left states.

Uses the bounded provider-error parser merged in #14768. Related work:
#13256 introduced AgentMail; #14725 expanded connection search.

## What Changed

- Stop recurring email queries for tasks that have no email thread.
Share the query between the thread provider and activity view. Keep
email-task updates and invalidation-based discovery.
- Make AgentMail available without the experimental chat setting. Keep
the catalog, setup and management routes, agent Channels tab, task email
feed, receiving worker, and agent tools available by default. Other
experimental chat providers stay gated.

- Make the email address and copy icon a single clickable action with
the shared Copied! confirmation. Add View inbox linking directly to the
matching AgentMail console inbox, with the address encoded as one URL
path segment.

- Reorganize inbox Settings around the copyable email address, usage
instructions, and receiving status. Move reconnect credentials into a
disclosure and separate the Disconnect action. Add production Settings
stories for active, paused, unassigned-address, revoked, webhook,
long-address, mobile, and reconnect states. Show repair controls when
the inbox has an error. Keep usage instructions tied to an active inbox
with an address.

- Add AgentMail channel intents and an inline key field with the direct
API-key URL.
- Keep setup and retry state tied to the interaction. Require an active
inbox for completion. Preserve company and agent access checks.
- Reduce manual setup to agent selection and email selection. Put the
domain dropdown beside the address and default to a verified custom
domain. Preserve explicit choices across reloads. Keep receiving
settings under Advanced options.
- Check the initial address and edits after a 350 ms pause. Abort
superseded requests and ignore stale responses. Show clickable
suggestions and retain known creation conflicts across reloads.
- Add a company-scoped, manager-only address check using the saved
credential. Search the visible inbox list instead of fetching an
uncreated inbox: live AgentMail retains negative lookups that can break
subsequent access-key creation. Unlisted addresses remain unknown;
creation is authoritative.
- Suggest labeled saved AgentMail keys in both manual setup and the
inline card. Filter by company, provider, active credential, and
current-user grants on the server. Prefer an account key and preserve
the selected key or an explicit new-key choice across refresh. Use
verified scope metadata and bounded concurrent checks for legacy keys.
Never return secret values.
- Catch an inbox-only key before the email step. Allow its existing
inbox only after an explicit choice. Recover old locked drafts at the
key picker. Save the replacement key before retiring an empty draft,
then use a new setup URL so refresh preserves the switched account; stop
if cleanup fails. Preserve already allocated addresses and their
original accounts.
- Use the shared AgentSelect in email setup. Show the canonical agent
avatar in each option and the selected value, including other consumers
of the shared component. Add regression coverage for legacy and current
Lucide agent-mention icon formats.
- Start each catalog Add connection with a fresh setup identity. Honor
Finish setup's exact draft/account/address instead of resuming an
unrelated browser draft. Return Cancel and Done to Connectors and Email
settings to the inbox. Group the task/thread explanation in a How it
Works card.
- Route AgentMail catalog removal through the email inbox control API,
including unfinished drafts. Refresh both the catalog and inbox views.
- Render each inbox management tab separately. Access uses the saved
account grants and agent controls; Conversations and Activity use the
shared persisted email feed. Activity lifecycle actions use the email
API. Reconnect returns to inbox Settings. Conversation failures show a
retry instead of a false empty state. Email delivery recovery stays in
the task.
- Map documented provider address conflicts to a field error. Preserve
actionable messages for other failures.
- Preserve non-secret draft fields across refresh, scoped to the
requested agent. Never save API keys in browser storage. Resume partial
inbox creation with the original agent, address, and request ID.
- Show an already-created address with explicit retry and new-address
recovery instead of locked inputs. Preserve the original inbox and
resumable draft when choosing another address. Distinguish runtime-key
404 errors and log safe provider status/operation/code.
- Apply final agent access once within email setup authorization for a
new account whose original installs are unchanged. Preserve later
permission edits and reused account installs. Support in-place retry of
progress loading.
- Let a failed inline setup change keys after retiring an empty draft.
Persist its replacement setup identity without storing secrets. Recover
a server-saved account when refresh interrupts the save response, while
preserving intentional account changes.
- Render the production setup in Storybook and add error, recovery, and
mobile states.
- Inset native select carets in shared CSS. Preserve custom icons,
listboxes, keyboard behavior, and forced-color controls.
- Add browser regression coverage and an AgentMail Product E2E case with
persisted-state and rendered-card evidence.

## Verification

- Full `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `pnpm check:token-gates`, and
`git diff --check` passed after the default-availability change.
- All 485 focused tests passed. These cover setup, management, catalog
and route gates, connection intents, email authorization, Cursor
execution, and the OpenAPI contract. All 39 email integration tests run
with the experimental chat setting off.
- The shared polling change passed four behavioral tests, UI typecheck
and build, and token gates.
- `tests/e2e/agentmail.spec.ts` passed with the actual server setting
off. This full-stack browser test uses simulated provider responses. It
covers catalog entry, saved keys, editable address and domain controls,
creation, conflicts, retry, all management tabs, clipboard feedback, the
provider link, and task email rendering.
- In the live local browser, Add connection reached the editable email
step with the saved account key. The verified custom domain was selected
by default. Both domain choices worked. The existing inbox Settings page
remained available. Both active inboxes completed new mail checks with
the setting off. No new provider inbox or email message was created for
this pass.
- Earlier live provider acceptance covered creation on a verified custom
domain, Finish connecting on the reported draft, successful mail checks
after refresh, and catalog removal of disposable draft and active
connections. Clicking the email address copied the exact address and
showed Copied!. View inbox opened the same inbox in AgentMail’s console.
No email messages were sent.
- Production setup and Settings Storybook builds and interactions
passed. Settings states include active, paused, unassigned, revoked,
webhook, long-address, mobile, and reconnect. Receiving and
revoked-access stories had zero accessibility violations.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` on an earlier revision completed with
14,709 passing, 87 skipped, and four transient failures. All four failed
cases passed in focused reruns without product changes. That serial full
local command was not repeated after each follow-up. The latest-head
full CI suite is the final test gate.
- CI found an obsolete browser assertion that hid every channel when the
flag was off. Updated it to keep AgentMail and the Channels surface
visible while preserving the GitHub chat route gates. All 11 provider
browser tests passed locally after scoping the Channels selector to the
agent sidebar. Two initial local attempts stopped at temporary Postgres
initialization. The passing run used a separate disposable database on
the existing local Postgres server; it was removed after the test.
- Updated the remaining sidebar and aggregator discovery assertions for
default AgentMail availability. Ordinary task fixtures now return no
email thread. All 128 sidebar/task-page tests and all 42 aggregator
tests passed locally.
- Latest head `b42bb4cd5cc9f2d01a99ab8026832d5a956ea85f`: full CI
passed, with 54 successful checks including Snyk and two intentional
Storybook skips. The CI run is
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37020833647. A
fresh Greptile review scored 5/5 with no unresolved threads. Live model
evaluations and inbound/outbound email delivery were not run.

## Risks

- AgentMail no longer needs experimental opt-in. Setup still requires a
human to connect an account and assign an inbox. Inline setup creates an
inbox after a human submits a new or saved key. Company access, agent
access, inbox assignment, and completion checks remain enforced.
- AgentMail read APIs cannot prove global address availability. The
visible-list check is bounded to 100 entries and cannot see inboxes
outside the key’s scope. The UI reports this limitation, suggests
alternatives without claiming they are free, and keeps final creation
conflicts inline. Lookup outages show an error without preventing the
authoritative creation attempt.
- Native select CSS affects the whole app. Custom-icon selects and
multi-row lists are excluded. Forced-color mode keeps the browser caret.
- Saved-key discovery uses stored verified scope metadata and checks
authorized legacy credentials concurrently within a shared three-second
deadline. Provider outages mark legacy choices unavailable; users can
still enter another key. Final use rechecks authorization and provider
access.
- No database migration or transport default change. Live connection
remains the default.

DottaandPaperclip e00d10d5d5 fix(connections): repair stale AI defaults from agent settings (#14916)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and controls the credentials used for
their work.
> - Managed AI connections resolve each responsible user's provider
default.
> - Agent settings created another account but kept the old default
selected.
> - A rejected provider test left the old account marked as connected.
> - Claude ACP reported a typed login failure as a generic
terminal-access error.
> - This pull request repairs the selected account or selects the new
login explicitly.
> - Agents can save and run with the repaired credential, and failed
logins request sign-in.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Fixes #14831.
- Refs #13867. Environment failures remain separate from
credential-health failures.

## What Changed

- Add an agent-settings action to reconnect an unavailable personal
default in place. Keep its connection, grant, default, and agent access.
- State that a new account becomes the user's provider default. Select
its returned grant before changing the agent binding. Keep the actual
sign-in method.
- Show default-update errors and allow retry without another provider
login.
- Show the agent-access choice. Connection managers start with
company-wide access for their own tasks. Other members start with access
for the current agent.
- Use the server's connection-manager permission in the shared list
response. This includes members with a custom management grant.
- Mark credentials as needing attention after an explicit login
rejection in Test or Save. This includes API-key 401 and 403 responses.
Network, quota, and server failures keep the credential health
unchanged.
- Reuse the credential-generation check so an old failure cannot
invalidate a newer reconnect.
- Route Claude's typed provider `access` failure to the existing
login-recovery flow. Replace its generic terminal-access fallback with a
sign-in message.
- Add regression tests and update the AI Connections documentation.

## Verification

- Red: the UI tests failed on the missing reconnect action, unused
returned grant, missing access choice, and lost default-update error.
The server tests failed because rejected credentials stayed connected.
The real ACP fixture returned `acpx_turn_failed` for typed login
failures.
- Green: 156 tests passed across the AI connection, hiring, agent field,
and New Agent suites. All 37 environment-route tests passed. The Claude
ACP authentication fixtures also passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` passed 707 files and 14,503 tests, then
exited with an agent-conversation timeout and embedded PostgreSQL
startup failures in unchanged suites. The isolated conversation and
migration tests passed on rerun. Later local test groups did not run
after this failure.
- [All CI gates
passed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37012669356)
on commit `38513dfe2`. This includes the full test matrix, browser
tests, typecheck, build, Runner checks, and canary dry run.
- Greptile reviewed commit `38513dfe2` and returned 5/5 with no open
findings.
- The regression tests use a real embedded database and a real ACP
fixture process. Live provider sign-in requires a valid account and was
not run.

## Risks

- Connecting a new account from agent settings changes the user's
provider default. The dialog states this before sign-in.
- The displayed access choice can allow all company agents to use the
account for its owner's tasks. Reconnect keeps the existing access.
Server permissions still control installs.
- Claude's typed `access` category maps to the provider's
`auth_required` signal. Tool and workspace request failures retain their
existing classification.
- No database migration or provider credential format changes are
required.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The exact served model identifier and
context window are not exposed in this session. Capabilities used:
reasoning, repository tools, code editing, and command execution.

DottaandPaperclip efc2e6810e fix: show each task once in dashboard agent cards (#14847)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents and their tasks.
> - The dashboard shows recent agent activity in compact cards.
> - Those cards use run records, so two runs for one task can create
duplicate task cards.
> - An operator needs to see each task once when scanning the dashboard.
> - This pull request selects one run per linked task before it applies
the card limit.
> - The live runs page still shows each run for run inspection.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The dashboard showed the same task in two agent cards when that task had
both an active run and a completed run.

**Expected behavior**

The dashboard should show a linked task at most once. It should keep the
active run card when one is present.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start an agent run for a task that already has a completed run.
2. Open the company dashboard.
3. Observe two cards linked to the same task.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on the pre-change master at `8b4aa0692`.

**Deployment mode**

Local dev, built from source. The bug is in the core dashboard UI and
does not depend on an agent adapter or database mode.

## What Changed

- Select distinct linked tasks from capped active and recent run samples
before applying the dashboard card limit.
- Keep separate cards for runs without a linked task.
- Preserve the dashboard's count of additional distinct cards behind the
live-runs link.
- Add UI and embedded Postgres regression tests for duplicate runs and
document the dashboard rule.
- Give the existing multi-request cross-tenant authorization test enough
time on loaded CI runners.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/components/ActiveAgentsPanel.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/api/heartbeats.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/dashboard-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/agent-live-run-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/agent-cross-tenant-authz-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- Review the dashboard with an active and a completed run on the same
task. Confirm that it shows one card. Open Live agent runs to inspect
both run records.

## Risks

- A very high volume of recent runs for one task can fill the capped
sample and leave older tasks off the dashboard. The Live runs page
remains available for full run inspection.
- The dashboard may fetch up to 50 distinct run representatives to
preserve its overflow count. The default run API response and persisted
data are unchanged.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. The runtime does not expose the exact model ID or
context window size to this task. The model used reasoning, tool calls,
and code execution.

DottaandPaperclip 6d654f63d1 feat(apps): make MCP action test results readable (#14859)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connected Apps let an operator control which MCP actions an agent
can use.
> - The Permissions page lets the operator run a real action as an
agent.
> - The Test dialog displayed the nested MCP response as escaped JSON.
> - A useful result was hard to read, even when the action worked.
> - This pull request renders known MCP content as a readable preview
and keeps the raw response available.
> - The benefit is faster validation without losing the data needed to
diagnose a failure.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The per-action Test dialog on a connection's Permissions page.

**Subsystem affected**

ui/ — React board UI.

**Current behavior**

The dialog shows the gateway response as an escaped JSON blob. Text
content that contains JSON stays inside a string. The obsolete
connection Test page also keeps a separate set of stories.

**Proposed behavior**

The dialog uses structured MCP content when present. It parses JSON text
blocks when possible. It shows compact tables, cards, fields, or plain
text. It keeps the full raw response behind a control and opens that
view for errors or unknown block shapes. Stories exercise the
Permissions page dialog, and the obsolete Test page and stories are
removed.

**Reason and benefit**

An operator can inspect a successful action result at a glance and still
inspect the exact gateway response when a call fails or looks wrong.

**Breaking changes**

No API or stored data changes. The Test dialog presentation changes. The
raw response stays available.

**Additional context**

I tested a read-only Notion search through the real Permissions page.
The dialog showed three result cards and the raw response control
worked. Storybook uses invented example data.

No directly matching public issue or open PR was found in the GitHub
search.

## What Changed

- Render structured MCP output and JSON text content in the action Test
dialog.
- Show wide rows as cards, keep short rows as tables, and retain the raw
response for diagnosis.
- Remove the obsolete connection Test page and its stories.
- Add focused dialog tests and Permissions page Storybook cases for
success, errors, mixed blocks, and malformed blocks.
- Document the Test dialog result behavior in the connection playbook.
- Keep agent mention icons visible when the Lucide icon node is
unavailable in server rendering, which repaired a repeatable CI failure.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/ui` — passed (7,111
tests).
- `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/pages/apps/app-detail/ActionTestDialog.test.tsx` — passed (11
tests).
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/ui
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx` — passed (53 tests).
- `pnpm test:run` — started, then stopped after the review fixes changed
the head; the full sharded suite passed in CI.
- `pnpm build` — passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — passed.
- Use a connected MCP app. Open Permissions, select a read action, and
run Test. Inspect the preview and the raw response control.

## Risks

- MCP tools can return provider-specific block shapes. Unknown blocks
open the raw response so the operator can inspect the exact result.
- Row and field previews limit visible data. The raw response preserves
the complete result.

> This is a targeted improvement to the existing Connected Apps item in
`ROADMAP.md`.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. The session used tool access, code execution, and
browser validation. The exact deployment ID and context window were not
exposed to the session.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #14706 added the secondary Agent Chat navigation.

**What happened?**

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

**Expected behavior**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master at `0829d94af`.

**Deployment mode**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

DottaandPaperclip 4ac374103f fix(connections): repair Asana MCP and add shared-app sign-in (#14756)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections let agents use provider tools through the permission
gateway.
> - Asana provides an official remote MCP server, but its v2 server
requires a registered MCP OAuth app.
> - Setup can discover retired v1 endpoints and send a callback that
differs from the displayed URL.
> - This pull request repairs custom app setup and adds sign-in through
Paperclip's shared app.
> - Users can choose their own app without enrolling with Paperclip
Cloud.
> - Agents can use Asana tools after the user connects their account and
sets action permissions.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #14739 supplies the personal credential repair used by resumed
Asana setup. No duplicate Asana authentication PR was found.

**What happened?**

Asana setup failed even with a user-created app. Root discovery metadata
still points at v1. MCP v2 uses the Asana OAuth issuer and requires an
MCP app with a client secret. Local setup also displayed a localhost
callback while an Origin header could make authorization use a numeric
loopback callback.

**Expected behavior**

Sign in with Paperclip's app when its broker profile is available. Keep
custom MCP app setup available without Cloud enrollment. Use the correct
issuer, callback, client credentials, and resource throughout setup.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open Asana in the connection catalog.
2. Supply an Asana MCP app's client ID and secret.
3. Start OAuth on a local instance opened with a numeric loopback
address, or resume a draft that cached v1 metadata.
4. Observe the wrong discovery endpoint or callback mismatch.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced from b54b2dc35c. Rebased onto
master at `0829d94af` after the single-screen setup change in #14811.

**Deployment mode**

Local development from source. The managed path also supports enrolled
self-hosted instances.

## What Changed

- Add the `asana.mcp` managed profile and the default Sign in with Asana
method.
- Use Asana's reviewed v2 protected-resource metadata before cached
endpoints.
- Require a custom MCP app's client secret and retain saved credentials
during setup or reconnect. Repair only the known Asana v1
issuer/resource binding, retaining company and callback checks.
- Expose a boolean for the acting user's saved client secret. The form
offers secret reuse only when that user has an active grant with the
required reference.
- Let users select their own app from the enrollment and
shared-app-unavailable screens, or from Advanced on the single-screen
setup page.
- Canonicalize HTTP loopback callbacks even when the request includes an
Origin header.
- Extend signed broker claims and provider URL validation for Asana.
Require refresh credentials on managed authorization.
- Document setup, distribution, and shared-app rollout requirements.
- Resolve permission-profile name collisions when finishing another
account. The live staging test found this after renaming the first Asana
connection; OAuth succeeded but profile finalization failed.

## Verification

- Final live staging proof used app commit
`c6053157c4e42ac017727117b754ae77fa5c45fa` and the real Cloud broker at
`767b63835170f664542afd0df99a76615e204b62`. In the embedded browser,
default shared sign-in required no client credentials, returned through
the central Cloud callback to the tenant, and discovered 39 actions. Get
me succeeded through the gateway as the selected QA agent (2.1 seconds).
The custom-app connection also returned a real result on this final
build (0.9 seconds).
- Retried the shared draft that failed during the first staging test. It
completed after the profile-name fix, retained the selected agent, and
kept the existing custom connection intact. Two database regressions
reproduced the collision before the fix and passed afterward. The
updated transaction rollback test also passes.
- Shared reconnect returned to the same staging connection with 39
actions. Earlier staging checks verified the custom-app fallback when
the shared profile was unavailable, saved-secret reuse on reconnect, and
Off blocking the action test. Allowed was restored after that check.
- Local live-provider checks also repaired a saved Asana v1
issuer/resource binding without reentering the secret and verified that
numeric-loopback setup uses the displayed localhost callback. Expiring
the local managed access-token timestamp triggered a real Asana refresh
and a successful Get me call. These early local broker tests used
enrollment/authentication and storage fixtures; the final staging proof
used deployed Cloud identity and persistent storage.
- The new production app is registered and configured, but production
sign-in has not been deployed or verified. Live provider revocation was
not run because the existing staging test app is shared with other
connections.

- After rebasing onto the single-screen setup flow, full `pnpm -r
typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `pnpm check:token-gates` pass. Focused
verification passes 365 service and 36 broker-client tests. Broader
checks pass all 833 shared-package tests and all 530 connector-page
tests. The shared suite uses `TMPDIR=/private/tmp` to avoid macOS
temporary-directory symlinks in its canonical-path tests. The UI tests
verify the shared-app default and switching to a custom app with its
required client secret.
- Embedded-browser smoke on the current rebased build verified the
shared sign-in default, Advanced → custom app (client ID and secret
required), and switching back to Paperclip. Both existing Asana
connections remained connected after restart. No new provider
authorization was performed during this smoke.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` was interrupted when the execution
session restarted. Before interruption, it reported one runtime-slot
restart test failure. That test passed on an isolated retry after
clearing two unused PostgreSQL shared-memory segments. The full local
suite did not complete; CI must pass on the current head before merge.
- All 52 CI and security checks pass on
`9318fd4e9b616cdc3de12f40cdb9bd32d865af4c` (CI run `36882064080`),
including all eight browser shards, nine serialized-server shards,
build, typecheck, and canary dry run. Two optional Storybook checks were
skipped. Greptile review 4 reports 5/5 on this exact commit, with all
review threads resolved. Its updated summary identifies the current SHA;
this comment-triggered review did not publish a separate GitHub check
run.
- Provider revocation is unit-tested in the companion broker. Live
provider revocation was not run because the existing test app is shared
with other connections.

## Risks

- The shared Paperclip Asana MCP app has been registered with its
production callback and Any workspace distribution. Its secret is
provisioned in the production secret store, and the runtime client ID
and secret reference are configured. The production profile is enabled
in the saved deployment configuration. The companion broker has merged
and passed staging deployment; production sign-in still requires a
production deployment and live verification. Custom setup remains
available.
- Asana MCP uses the provider's fixed `default` grant. Paperclip action
policies limit agent tool use; they do not narrow provider consent.
- The callback correction affects HTTP loopback OAuth flows. Public
HTTPS callbacks retain their existing behavior.
- Reviewed discovery URLs now override stale cached endpoints. Tests
cover the Asana v1-to-v2 repair.
- No schema migration. Connection removal retains the existing
local-only revocation behavior.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with code execution, browser testing, and
GitHub tooling. The exact model variant and context window are not
exposed in this session.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip c8f874311c fix(ui): hide Google connectors only on the Connections page (#14774)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents for work.
> - The Connections page lists the apps and saved accounts that agents
can use.
> - Google Workspace verification is still pending.
> - Google entries must be temporarily hidden from this page without
removing their implementations.
> - This PR filters the final page rows, including saved Google
accounts, after the page resolves their provider.
> - Definitions, direct setup routes, OAuth profiles, credentials, and
runtime access stay intact.
> - Review instances can keep the prior UI by staying on their pinned
app release.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Temporary provider visibility on the Connections landing page.

**Current behavior**

The page can show Google Workspace catalog entries and saved accounts
while verification is pending.

**Proposed behavior**

Hide all nine Google Workspace rows on this page. Keep every other
connector and all Google integration code unchanged. Use an existing
release pin for review instances instead of a hostname exception in the
app.

**Reason and benefit**

Pause public discovery without disabling existing runtime tools or
removing the implementation needed for verification and later
re-enablement.

**Breaking changes**

Google accounts are no longer visible on this landing page. Direct setup
and management routes remain available. This is not an access-control
restriction.

Related completed work: #13551 used catalog-level visibility. This
change is deliberately limited to the landing page and also covers saved
account rows. #14740 reduced Google scopes; this change leaves those
scopes unchanged. No duplicate open PR or matching open issue was found.

## What Changed

- Derive the Google app slugs from the existing Workspace profile
registry.
- Filter the combined catalog and saved-account rows only inside
`Browse`.
- Cover all nine Google entries, active/draft/disabled accounts, legacy
connection metadata, mixed-provider rows, and independently identified
non-Google connectors in regression tests.
- Document the display-only hold, pinned review builds, and how to
restore visibility after approval.

## Verification

- Passed: `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/pages/apps/Browse.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/apps/AppsConnect.test.tsx` (199 tests, including the latest
master changes).
- Passed: `pnpm check:token-gates`.
- Passed: `pnpm build`.
- Passed: `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` after merging the latest
master. An earlier overlapping run hit a local runner codesign race;
sequential checks passed.
- Passed again after the final custom-provider fix: `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/ui typecheck` and `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build`.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` was started, then stopped after the
full remote CI suite passed to avoid continuing duplicate long-running
work on the developer machine. It is not claimed as a completed local
pass.
- All 54 latest-head CI checks passed. Two non-applicable Storybook jobs
were skipped. One serialized server job lost its self-hosted runner
connection; its single retry passed.
- Greptile: 5/5 on `aeda167bf4494feed6ee0de2585960511fb02918`, with no
unresolved review threads.
- Confirmed in the existing review instance that all nine Google entries
still appear after its current release was pinned. No new app release
was deployed to that instance.
- Reviewer steps: open Connections on this branch with Google catalog
entries and saved Google accounts. None should appear. Non-Google
connectors must remain. Direct Google setup routes must still load.

## Risks

- Existing Google accounts cannot be found on this page during the hold.
Their data and runtime access remain unchanged.
- This is a UI-only filter, not an authorization gate. Direct routes and
API access still work by design.
- Review instances must not receive this UI build until the hold is
removed. Their existing release pin excludes fleet app upgrades; an
explicit targeted upgrade must still be avoided.
- No migrations, backend changes, broker changes, or credential changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-5-based coding agent), with reasoning, tool use, code
execution, and browser inspection. The exact deployment model ID and
context window are not exposed in this session.

d6fa1fd1ef feat(ui): streamline account menu profile access and add Invite shortcut (#14480)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Humans work in teams, so Paperclip has a multi-user system with
logins, profiles, and a company sidebar.
> - The account menu in the lower-left corner of the sidebar is the main
entry point for a user's own settings.
> - The account menu spent half of its rows on "View profile" and "Edit
profile". Users open these rows rarely.
> - The account menu had no fast path to invite a new member. The invite
flow is different on a self-hosted instance and on Paperclip Cloud.
> - This pull request removes the two profile rows, makes the header a
link to the profile, adds an "Edit profile" button on the profile page,
and adds an "Invite" row.
> - The benefit is a shorter account menu that keeps profile access and
gives users with the invite permission a one-click path to invite
people.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this change. The description below
follows the enhancement template.

Refs #14060. That earlier pull request holds the first two commits and
the first Greptile review. It closed when the branch got a new name to
remove an internal ticket id. All Greptile findings from both reviews
are fixed in this branch.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The account menu in the sidebar (`SidebarAccountMenu` and its
`.production` variant) and the user profile page at `/u/:userSlug`.

**Subsystem affected**

ui/ — React + Vite board UI

**Current behavior**

The account menu shows the user's picture and name at the top. Below
them, the menu shows "View profile" and "Edit profile" rows, then the
other rows. The header is not a link. The menu has no row to invite
people. On a self-hosted instance, the user must open Company settings,
then Members, then the Invites tab. On Paperclip Cloud, the user must
open the Members page and use the Cloud People link there.

**Proposed behavior**

The account menu does not show "View profile" or "Edit profile". The
picture and name at the top of the menu are a link to the user's own
profile page. The profile page shows an "Edit profile" button when the
viewer looks at their own profile. The account menu shows an "Invite"
row with the same `UserPlus` icon as the company menu. On a self-hosted
instance, the row opens the Members page on the Invites tab, and shows
only to boards that hold the `users:invite` grant (company owners and
admins, instance admins, and local boards). On Paperclip Cloud, the row
opens the People settings for the current stack, and shows only to the
owner or admin of the stack, the same rule the Members page uses.

**Reason and benefit**

Users open their profile rarely, but the two rows took half of the menu.
Inviting people is a common task, but it needed three clicks and a
different path on Cloud. The new menu is shorter, keeps profile access
in one tap on the header, and gives one "Invite" entry point on both
hosting modes to the users who can invite.

**Breaking changes**

None. Routes, API responses, and settings keys do not change. The
profile page and the invite pages keep their current URLs.

## What Changed

- `SidebarAccountMenu.tsx` and `SidebarAccountMenu.production.tsx`:
remove the "View profile" and "Edit profile" rows. Make the picture and
name header a link to the user's profile. Add the "Invite" row after
"Settings" in the streamlined menu and first in the production menu.
- Header structure: `master` added a staging commit SHA link under the
email in the same header. The profile link is now a stretched overlay
behind the header content, so the SHA anchor sits beside the email and
the header has no nested anchors.
- `ui/src/lib/userProfileLinks.ts` (new): build the profile path from
the user id first. The profile endpoint treats the id as the one unique
slug, so two members with the same display name get different links.
Name and email are a fallback only when the session has no id.
- `ui/src/hooks/useCloudInviteUrl.ts` (new): read the Cloud stack
portfolio and return the People settings URL only when the current stack
role is owner or admin. This is the same rule as the Members page.
- `ui/src/hooks/useCompanyInviteAccess.ts` (new): read the current board
access snapshot and report whether the board may invite people to the
selected company on a self-hosted instance. Local boards and instance
admins pass. Other boards need an active owner or admin membership, the
roles that carry `users:invite`. This follows the same client-side gate
pattern as `ToolsAdminGate` and the run ledger. The server stays
authoritative.
- Invite row visibility: the row is hidden when the operator hides
`company.members` or `company.invites`, and until the health check
resolves. On self-hosted instances, the row is hidden until the board
access snapshot loads and when the board cannot invite. On Cloud, the
row is hidden when no People URL can be built. The in-app Invites tab is
never a fallback on Cloud, because it drives a different flow.
- `ui/src/pages/UserProfile.tsx`: add an "Edit profile" button that
links to `/company/settings/instance/profile`. The button shows only on
the viewer's own profile and follows the `instance.profile`
hidden-settings gate.
- Tests: extend `SidebarAccountMenu.test.tsx`; add
`userProfileLinks.test.ts`, `UserProfile.test.tsx`, and
`useCompanyInviteAccess.test.ts`.
- No documentation references the removed menu rows, so no docs change
is needed.

## Verification

Run the focused tests from the `ui/` directory:

```bash
pnpm vitest run src/components/SidebarAccountMenu.test.tsx src/hooks/useCompanyInviteAccess.test.ts src/lib/userProfileLinks.test.ts src/pages/UserProfile.test.tsx
```

- 52 tests pass in these four files. They cover the header link by user
id, the removed rows, the header overlay with no nested anchors, the
self-hosted invite target, the self-hosted permission gate (owner,
admin, instance admin, and local board see the row; an operator does
not, on both menu variants), the Cloud invite target with no
`target="_blank"`, the menu order, the hidden-settings gate on both
variants, the Cloud role gate (a plain member sees no row), the
no-fallback rule when Cloud stack metadata is missing, the staging
commit SHA link from `master`, and the own-profile-only "Edit profile"
button.
- `tsc -b` in `ui/` reports no errors in the changed files. The only
errors are pre-existing `@paperclipai/plugin-sdk/ui` resolution errors
in `PluginOrganizationSwitcher.tsx` from an unbuilt workspace package.

Manual steps:

1. Sign in and open the account menu in the lower-left corner. Confirm
the menu has no "View profile" or "Edit profile" rows.
2. Click your picture or name at the top of the menu. Confirm your
profile page opens and shows an "Edit profile" button.
3. Open another user's profile. Confirm the page shows no "Edit profile"
button.
4. On a self-hosted instance, as a company owner or admin, click
"Invite". Confirm the Members page opens on the Invites tab. As an
operator or viewer, confirm the menu shows no "Invite" row.
5. On Paperclip Cloud, as a stack owner or admin, click "Invite".
Confirm the Cloud People settings page opens in the same tab. As a plain
member, confirm the menu shows no "Invite" row.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is limited to the UI and touches ten files.
- Users who know the "View profile" and "Edit profile" rows must learn
the new header link. The header has hover and focus styles to show that
it is a link.
- On self-hosted instances, the "Invite" row depends on the board access
snapshot from `/cli-auth/me`, which other gates in the UI already use. A
member with a custom `users:invite` grant but an operator or viewer role
does not see the row. That member can still use the Members page. The
row is a shortcut, not the only path.
- On Paperclip Cloud, the "Invite" row depends on the stack portfolio
query. When that query fails or the role is unknown, the menu hides the
row instead of sending the user to the wrong flow.
- Both menu variants change together, so a behavior difference between
them is not expected.

## Model Used

- Provider: Anthropic. Model: Claude Fable 5.1 (`claude-fable-5-1`).
- Run through Claude Code on the Claude Agent SDK inside a Paperclip
`claude_local` agent, with extended thinking and tool use (file edits,
shell, tests, GitHub API).
- The model wrote the code, the tests, and this description. A human
reviewed the pull request and requested the review fixes.
