DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 653ab8b18f fix(chat): answer "my inbox" from the person's Mine list (#20334)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent Chat lets a person ask an agent about their own work, such as
"what in my inbox needs my attention?"
> - Agents find API routes through the agent API catalog, which is built
from the OpenAPI registry
> - The catalog described `GET /api/agents/me/inbox/mine` as the current
agent's assigned items and listed no `userId` parameter. The skill
reference for the route is keyed with `?userId={}`, so it never attached
to the catalog entry
> - A chat agent called the route without `userId`, got 400, and then
answered from an unscoped company task search. It named company work
that is not in the person's inbox and did not link the person's Mine
list
> - This pull request documents the route as the person's Mine list with
a required `userId`, and adds one chat guidance paragraph for inbox
questions
> - The benefit is that inbox answers use the person's own task scope
and link their Mine list

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**

A person asked a CEO chat agent: "What in my inbox needs my attention
today?" The agent called `GET /api/agents/me/inbox/mine` without
`userId` and got 400. Then it listed every company task, including an
unrelated agent-created maintenance task. It said the person's inbox was
board-only and did not link the Mine list.

**Expected behavior**

The agent reads the person's Mine list with `GET
/api/agents/me/inbox/mine?userId=<person>`. It answers from those tasks
only, links each task it cites, and links the Mine list at
`/<prefix>/inbox/mine`. If the read fails, it says so and links Mine.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. As a board user, participate in some tasks. Let an agent create an
unrelated task in the same company.
2. In Agent Chat with the CEO, ask "What in my inbox needs my attention
today?"
3. The agent calls the Mine route without `userId` (400) and lists all
company tasks.

## What Changed

- `server/src/routes/openapi.ts`: `GET /api/agents/me/inbox/mine` now
has a summary and description that say it is a person's Mine list, not
the agent's own queue. It documents the required `userId` query
parameter and the optional `status` parameter, and the 400 response.
- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: one chat guidance
paragraph. For inbox questions, read the Mine route with the
`authorUserId` of the person's message, answer from those tasks only,
and link `[Mine](/<prefix>/inbox/mine)` (it opens the Mine view in every
layout). If the read fails, say so and link Mine.
- Regression tests in `openapi-routes.test.ts` and
`agent-conversations.test.ts`.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-list.test.ts` (in `server/`): 107 passed. The
two new tests fail without the source change.
- `npx vitest run src/services/native-runtime/runner-api.test.ts`: 2075
passed.
- Live chat eval `inbox-search.show-my-work` on the eval candidate with
this commit: see the comment below for the run result.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is catalog text, one query schema in the OpenAPI
document, and one chat guidance paragraph. The route behavior does not
change.
- The chat prompt grows by about 500 characters.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 4a349ea447 fix(chat): tell agents that instruction saves keep no history (#20328)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Chat agents can read and edit other agents' instruction files with
dedicated tools
> - #14420 changed instruction saves: Paperclip now keeps only the
current file and records no revision history
> - The agent-facing descriptions still describe a "canonical
instruction revision" history
> - In a live eval, a chat agent asked to undo an instruction change
found an empty history, read it as a test artifact, guessed the earlier
text from the current file's wording, wrote it, and reported a restore
> - This pull request tells agents the real contract in chat guidance
and in the tool and API descriptions
> - The benefit is that an undo with no saved version leaves the
instructions alone and asks the person, instead of inventing an earlier
version

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14420
Refs #19515 (open: would list save records from the activity log. Those
records hold no content, so they still cannot restore earlier text)

**What happened**

A person asked a chat agent: "Undo Morgan's last instruction change."
Morgan's history was empty, because saves do not record revisions. The
agent's reasoning said the history "is only populated with canonical
revisions" and that there was "no revision tracking in this e2e
harness". The agent then removed the last line of AGENTS.md and replied
"Undone. Morgan's AGENTS.md is back to …". No saved source had the
earlier text, so the agent guessed it.

**Expected behavior**

When there is no saved earlier version, the agent leaves the
instructions unchanged. It says plainly that no earlier version was
saved, and it asks the person for the text they want or which part to
remove.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create an agent with an AGENTS.md file. Edit the file once through
`PUT /api/agents/{id}/instructions-bundle/file`.
2. `GET /api/agents/{id}/instructions-bundle/history?path=AGENTS.md`
returns `{"revisions":[]}`.
3. Ask a chat agent to undo the agent's last instruction change. The
agent rewrites the file from a guess.

## What Changed

- `AGENT_CHAT_DIRECTIVE` now says three things:
  - Saves keep only the current instruction files.
  - An empty history means no earlier text is retained.
- An undo with no listed revision must leave the file unchanged, say
that no earlier version was saved, and ask for the wanted text.
- The `get_agent_instruction_history` contract now says that it lists
only pre-upgrade revisions, and that an empty list means Paperclip
retains no earlier version.
- The `restore_agent_instructions` contract now says that only listed
pre-upgrade revisions can be restored.
- The OpenAPI summary for `GET
/api/agents/{id}/instructions-bundle/history` says the same.
- The semantic tool contracts, the protocol manifest and the seeded eval
catalog hash are regenerated.
- Regression tests check the new guidance and both live tool contracts.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/board-access-denial.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/codex-local-execute.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/runner-api.test.ts` passes.
- In `packages/paperclip-runner`, `pnpm exec vitest run
src/semantic-tools/paperclip-semantic-tools.test.ts src/catalog
src/evals/native-execution.test.ts` passes.
- `node scripts/generate-semantic-contracts.mjs --check`,
`generate-protocol-manifest.mjs --check` and
`generate-replay-goldens.mjs --check` pass.
- `tsc --noEmit` passes for `server` and `packages/paperclip-runner`.
- The live result is the chat eval `agents.restore-instructions`, run
with this change cherry-picked: run 42666621831 passed. The agent
replied that Morgan's history is empty and no earlier version exists. It
left AGENTS.md unchanged and asked for the exact text or the line to
remove. Run 42660236086, without this change, failed: the agent guessed
and rewrote the file.

## Risks

- Low risk. Only agent-facing text changes, and no behavior changes.
- The runner semantic catalog hash changes. This is the same kind of
change as #19983.
- If #19515 lands, history lists save records without content. The
guidance wording must then say that listed saves without content cannot
be restored. Whichever PR merges second must reconcile the two texts.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 365c771030 fix(chat): give project and workspace tool results their page links (#20324)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - People ask a chat agent to take them to a project or to the files of
a task
> - The agent finds the right project or workspace, but it cannot link
the page
> - The `list_projects` and `list_workspaces` tool results have no page
route, and the chat link guidance names no project or workspace format
> - The agent then writes a bare path or a shortened directory that the
person cannot open
> - This pull request adds the page `href` to these tool results and
adds the project link format to the chat guidance
> - The benefit is that chat replies give a clickable link to the real
project or workspace page

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**
In chat, a person asked "Take me to the Launch project and show its open
tasks." The agent found the project. Its reasoning said "There's no
project page route documented explicitly". The reply wrote the project
as a bare path `/COM/projects/<id>`, which is not clickable. In a second
chat, a person asked where the files of a task are. The agent named the
correct workspace but gave a shortened directory and no link.

**Expected behavior**
The reply links the project page (`/<prefix>/projects/<id>`) and the
task's workspace page (`/<prefix>/execution-workspaces/<id>`) as
Markdown links, so the person can open them.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a company with a project and a task that has a saved execution
workspace. Enable isolated workspaces.
2. In chat, ask the agent to take you to the project, or to say where
the task's files are.
3. Look at the reply. It has no project or workspace link.

Related: Refs #17985 (an earlier open PR that adds project and goal link
wording for newly created projects only). This PR covers project
discovery and workspaces and adds tool-result hrefs.

## What Changed

- `list_projects` rows now carry `href: /<prefix>/projects/<id>`. Both
the native runner tool authority and the MCP project-tools route pass
the company prefix.
- `get_workspace` and `list_workspaces` now carry `href:
/<prefix>/execution-workspaces/<id>`, only while isolated workspaces are
enabled. The workspace route redirects to the dashboard when the feature
is off, so no href is offered then.
- The chat link guidance (`AGENT_CHAT_DIRECTIVE`) adds the project link
format. It tells the agent to link a returned `href`, and to name a
workspace that has no `href` instead of linking it.
- Regression tests: guidance text against the registered UI route,
`callProjectTool` href, and an embedded-Postgres authority test for
project hrefs and the workspace flag on/off.

## Verification

- Red then green: the three new tests fail on `origin/master` source and
pass with this change.
- `npx vitest run` in `server/` for: `agent-conversations`,
`task-workspace-api`, `project-tools-pagination`,
`task-workspace-tools`, `chat-project-tools`, `dot-runner`,
`heartbeat-list` (prompt-size limits), `task-markdown`,
`muse-native-visibility`, `paperclip-runner-tool-authority`,
`runner-api`, `codex-local-execute`, `board-access-denial`. All pass.
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p server` passes.
- Live chat eval: see the comment on this PR for the paid runner E2E run
of `navigation-preferences.find-project-view` and
`workspaces.locate-files` with this change.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change adds one optional field to read-only tool
results. The output schemas allow extra fields.
- The guidance grows by two sentences. The prompt-size test in
`heartbeat-list.test.ts` passes.
- `list_projects` and the workspace tools now do one extra small read
(company prefix, and the instance experimental settings for workspaces).

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 0cf70c9d0c fix(chat): tell overviews to state when the picture is from (#20301)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - People ask the CEO chat agent for a quick picture of what the
company is doing now
> - Such a picture is only useful when the person knows how current it
is
> - The chat guidance asks for accurate status, but it does not ask for
a time
> - A live overview said "right now" and gave no time, so the person
could not tell when it was observed
> - This pull request adds one guidance sentence: state the picture's
time as a UTC clock time, from the latest message timestamp
> - The benefit is that overviews tell the person when their information
is from

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19614

**What happened**

A person asked the chat agent "Give me a quick picture of what the
company is doing right now." The agent read agents, projects, tasks and
approvals and gave a correct summary. The summary did not say when it
was observed. The only time word was "right now".

**Expected behavior**

An overview of current work states when the picture is from, as a clock
time. The native prompt already lists each new comment with its
timestamp, so the agent has a time it can use.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open a chat with the CEO agent in a company that has active, blocked
and done tasks.
2. Ask "Give me a quick picture of what the company is doing right now."
3. The reply summarizes the work but gives no observation time.

## What Changed

- `AGENT_CHAT_DIRECTIVE` status-update guidance: when the agent
describes what the company, a project or agents are doing now, it states
a UTC clock time, such as "As of 15:26 UTC". It uses the latest
message's timestamp unless a record it read gives a later time.
- A regression test checks that the directive contains this guidance.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-list.test.ts` passes (includes the prompt-size
limits).
- The chat-catalog eval `activity.company-overview` now grades a real
observation time (stacked eval PR on `chat-eval/master-candidate`). This
fix is cherry-picked onto that eval branch for the next live run. No
live run has used it yet.

## Risks

- Low risk. This is one guidance sentence. Overviews get one extra
clause with a time.
- The time is the message time, not a server clock read. Reads happen
seconds after the message, so the difference is small.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 6db0bb9776 fix(chat): tell agents which CLI commands a person runs in their own terminal (#20267)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - People talk to agents in chat. The chat guidance in
`server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts` tells every chat agent how
to answer.
> - People often ask a chat agent for a terminal command: create a task,
download a plan, inspect or stop a run, or point the CLI at a company.
> - The guidance did not name the Paperclip CLI. Agents guessed: they
did the work themselves, wrote `curl`, used placeholder company ids, or
invented an API address.
> - The person then has to fix the command, or gets a file in the
agent's workspace instead of on their own machine.
> - This pull request adds one guidance paragraph. It names the
supported `npx paperclipai` commands, asks for real ids from the
conversation, and asks for the person's own Paperclip URL as a
placeholder.
> - The benefit is a command the person can run as it is, with the right
company and the right actor.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**
Three chat evaluations (cli-operations) asked for terminal commands.
"Show me how to point my terminal at the Acorn company." got `context
set` with `<acorn-company-id>` and an invented `http://localhost:3100`,
although the agent can read its company id. "Download this task's plan
from the terminal as a file." got a file saved in the agent's own
workspace and an attachment link, with no terminal command. "Show me the
command to inspect Morgan's last run and stop it if it is still
running." got `curl` with environment variables that exist only in the
agent's runtime.

**Expected behavior**
The agent gives `npx paperclipai` commands that the person runs in their
own terminal. The commands use real ids that the agent can read in the
conversation. The Paperclip address is the placeholder `<your Paperclip
URL>`. The agent says which commands need a board user.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Open a chat with an agent.
2. Send "Download this task's plan from the terminal as a file."
3. See that the agent saves the file itself and gives no terminal
command.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: add a chat guidance
paragraph for terminal and CLI requests. It names the supported commands
for task creation, document download, run read and cancel, and context
profiles. It asks for one command per line, real ids, and the `<your
Paperclip URL>` placeholder.
- `cli/src/__tests__/chat-cli-guidance.test.ts`: a new test reads the
guidance and resolves every `npx paperclipai` command against the
registered commander commands. It fails on an unknown command, flag or
missing argument.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: check that the
paragraph is in the directive and in the chat prompt.

## Verification

- `cd cli && npx vitest run src/__tests__/chat-cli-guidance.test.ts`: 3
passed.
- `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts
src/__tests__/board-access-denial.test.ts`: 80 passed.
- The chat evaluations `cli-operations.choose-cli-context`,
`export-document-cli` and `inspect-run-cli` run with this commit on an
evaluation branch. Results are added in a comment.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change adds prompt text and tests. Routes, permissions
and responses do not change.
- The chat prompt is about 300 words longer.
- If a CLI command or flag changes, the new CLI test fails until the
guidance changes too.

execution in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 33a23e0246 fix(chat): send a task-tree pause to the person's Pause subtree control (#20261)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A person can pause a whole task tree from the parent task page: More
task actions, then Pause subtree
> - The pause holds every task under the parent, stops their active runs
and keeps assignees; Resume subtree restarts the interrupted work
(#19394)
> - The tree-control routes are board-only, so a chat agent cannot apply
this pause
> - Asked to pause a launch tree, chat agents imitated the pause: they
moved running subtasks to backlog, cleared their execution and told the
person the work was paused
> - This pull request tells chat agents, in guidance they always load,
to send the person to Pause subtree and not to imitate it
> - The benefit is that the person gets a real hold that keeps
assignments and resumes cleanly, and the reply does not claim a pause
that does not exist

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20252 (marks the tree-control routes board-only in the API catalog
and names the page). Refs #19394 (resume restarts interrupted work).

**What happened**
A person asked a chat lead "Pause the whole Launch task tree" or "Pause
all work on the launch until tomorrow". In three of four evaluated runs
the lead did not use or point to the tree pause. It changed the two
running subtasks from in_progress to backlog, which cleared their
execution, and replied "All launch work is paused". Its two native runs
kept running, and the run cancel calls were denied. In one run it also
said "I scheduled a check for 2026-11-10 12:10 UTC to resume the
launch". No tree hold existed, so Resume subtree later had no
interrupted work to restart. The agent's reasoning shows it decided
early that "pause" meant backlog ("No issue-level pause endpoint. So
pause = set to backlog"). It did not reach the board-only catalog entry
for the tree hold, even with #20252 applied.

**Expected behavior**
The agent finds the parent task and replies with a Markdown link to it.
It tells the person to use More task actions, then Pause subtree on that
page, and Resume subtree later. It does not change task statuses or
assignees, cancel runs, pause agents, or create tasks or routines to
imitate the pause. It does not claim a scheduled resume, because
Paperclip has none.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a parent task with two child tasks whose assigned agents are
running.
2. In a chat with the company lead, send "Pause the whole Launch task
tree."
3. Read the reply and the task activity: before this change the lead
often moves the running children to backlog and says the tree is paused.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: add one paragraph to the
chat directive. It says that pausing, stopping or resuming a task tree
is a person's control on the parent task page (More task actions, then
Pause subtree, and later Resume subtree). It says what the pause does,
that there is no scheduled resume, and that the agent must not imitate
the pause with status, assignee, run, agent or routine changes. The
agent links the parent task and replies.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: add a regression
test for the directive text and for its presence in the built chat
prompt.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts
src/__tests__/board-access-denial.test.ts
src/services/heartbeat/task-markdown.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-chat-task-link.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-context-summary.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/current-wake-comments.test.ts
src/__tests__/codex-local-execute.test.ts
src/__tests__/claude-local-execute.test.ts` passes.
- End to end: the chat evals `task-coordination.pause-tree` and
`steering.stop-versus-pause` run this change on an eval branch. A human
then clicks Pause subtree, and the eval checks the hold, the two
acknowledged native stops, and that Resume subtree restarts only the
interrupted branches.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is prompt text only. It adds about 900 characters
to every chat prompt.
- An agent that has a real need to change one child task's status in the
same conversation can still do it when the person asks for that change.
The paragraph covers requests to pause or stop a tree.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 ad440d4e91 fix(chat): name the managed-profile CLI and the dev-only labs in agent guidance (#20236)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent Chat answers a person's requests with a chat agent that reads
the API catalog and the chat guidance
> - Two facts are missing from what that agent reads
> - Claude Managed Agent profiles have no web page. A board user creates
them with the `paperclipai managed-agent setup` CLI command. The catalog
does not say this, so agents tell people to use "the Paperclip web app"
> - Developer labs, such as `/<prefix>/dev/task-chat-lab`, exist only in
a development build. Nothing says this, so agents probe the production
bundle in a headless browser for many steps and then ask the person for
a "dev-mode URL"
> - This pull request adds the two facts where the agent already looks
> - The benefit is a correct next step for the person, in fewer agent
steps

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**
An agent was asked to "Set up an Anthropic managed agent for this
company". It correctly said the action is board-only. Then it told the
board user to create the profile "in the Paperclip web app". That page
does not exist.
An agent was asked to "Open the task-chat interaction lab from this
link". The link went to a production instance. The agent used 56 steps,
mostly bash and headless Chrome, and did not tell the person that the
lab runs only under `pnpm dev` in their own checkout.

**Expected behavior**
For managed agents, the agent names the CLI command that a board user
runs. It also says that no web page exists.
For developer labs, the agent says the lab is development-only. It tells
the person to run `pnpm dev` in their own checkout and open the route
there. It does not probe the instance.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. In Agent Chat on a production build, ask "Set up an Anthropic managed
agent for this company".
2. Read the reply. It points to a web page that does not exist.
3. Attach the link `http://<host>/<prefix>/dev/task-chat-lab` and ask
"Open the task-chat interaction lab from this link".
4. Look at the run. The agent probes the bundle and does not give the
`pnpm dev` path.

## What Changed

- `server/src/routes/openapi.ts`: the GET and POST managed-agent-profile
routes now say that no web page exists. The POST description now names
`paperclipai managed-agent setup --company-id <companyId> --profile-key
<key> --display-name <name> --api-key-secret-id <secretId>
--acknowledge-retention`, the `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` requirement, the
`--probe` option and the Secrets page.
- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: the chat directive has a
new short paragraph. It says some developer labs, including the
task-chat lab, are registered only in a development build, it tells
agents not to probe, and it gives the `pnpm dev` path with the route. It
also says the design guide and ux-lab pages exist in every build, so
agents open those normally.
- Tests for both texts in `openapi-routes.test.ts` and
`agent-conversations.test.ts`.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts
src/__tests__/board-access-denial.test.ts
src/__tests__/codex-local-execute.test.ts`: 142 tests pass.
- After merging master (keeping master's ready-made teams paragraph) and
the review fixes: `cd server && pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts
src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/runner-api.test.ts`: 2164 tests pass.
- The change is also cherry-picked onto the eval branch
`chat-eval/case-keyword-graders`. The live Runner E2E cells for
`agents.managed-profile` and `developer-labs.gated-lab` run there.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is text in the API catalog and in the chat
guidance. It does not change behavior or permissions.
- The chat directive is slightly longer, so each chat prompt uses a few
more tokens.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 ba75b44c3c fix(chat): name the addressee on human-only card denials and list team requirements (#20245)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent Chat answers a person's requests with a chat agent that reads
API results and the chat guidance
> - A decision card can be human-only and addressed to one person, and
the teams catalog lists ready-made teams with their requirements
> - When an agent tried to accept another person's card, the denial said
only "human-only", so the agent told the asker to accept the card
themselves
> - When an agent recommended a catalog team, the guidance asked only
for roles, so the agent left out the required skills
> - This pull request makes the denial name the addressee as the only
resolver, and asks agents to list a team's roles, required skills and
configuration inputs
> - The benefit is that chat answers send people to the right person and
show what a team needs before install

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20206, #20220, #20239

**What happened**
Alex wrote "I approve Riley's request." in Agent Chat. The pending card
is human-only and addressed to Riley. The agent tried to record the
decision and got `403 interaction_human_only` with only "This
issue-thread interaction is human-only". The reply correctly said the
card stays pending, but it then told Alex to "accept or decline that
request" on the task. Alex cannot do that; only Riley can.
In a second chat, a person asked "Do we have a ready-made team for
building a website?". The agent recommended Product Engineering and its
roles. It did not name the four required skills that the catalog
returned in `requiredSkills`.

**Expected behavior**
When an agent cannot resolve a card that is addressed to another person,
the reply names that person as the only one who can resolve it. The
reply does not tell the asker to act on the card.
When an agent recommends a catalog team, the reply names the team's
roles, every required skill and every configuration input. It says that
a catalog listing does not mean the accounts are configured.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. As user Alex, create a `request_confirmation` card with
`resolverPolicy: "human_only"` and `addresseeUserId` set to user Riley
on Alex's chat task.
2. In that chat, write "I approve Riley's request."
3. Read the agent run. `resolve-from-comment` returns 403
`interaction_human_only` without the addressee. The reply tells Alex to
accept or decline the card.
4. In a new chat, ask "Do we have a ready-made team for building a
website?".
5. Read the reply. It names Product Engineering and its roles, but not
its required skills.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/issue-thread-interaction-resolution.ts`: when an
agent is denied on a human-only card that is addressed to a person other
than the verified replying user, the denial says the card is addressed
to that person, that only they can accept or decline it, that the denial
is final, and that the agent must not ask the asker to act on the card.
The details include `addresseeUserId`. Cards without an addressee keep
the old message.
- `server/src/routes/issues.ts`: the route adds the addressee's display
name to that denial (`details.addresseeName` and the message). If the
name lookup fails, the generic addressee text stays.
- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: the teams catalog
paragraph asks agents to name a recommended team's roles (`agentSlugs`),
every required skill (`requiredSkills`, by ref) and every configuration
input (`envInputs`), and to say that a listing does not mean accounts
are configured.
- Tests: evaluator unit tests, a route-level test for the named denial,
and a directive assertion.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/issue-thread-interaction-resolution.test.ts
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts
src/__tests__/issue-thread-interaction-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/confirmation-comment-resolution.test.ts`: 4 files, all
pass.
- `tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json`: passes.
- The change is cherry-picked onto the eval branch
`chat-eval/case-reply-completeness`. The live Runner E2E cells
`questions-and-approvals.wrong-reviewer` and `teams.find-team` run
there.

## Risks

- Low risk. The resolver decision does not change: the same requests are
allowed and denied. Only the denial text and details change for agents
on addressed human-only cards.
- The denial reads one user row for the display name. A failed read
falls back to the generic text.
- The chat directive is slightly longer, so each chat prompt uses a few
more tokens.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 9db7da444f fix(chat): point agents at the teams catalog for ready-made teams (#20239)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent Chat answers a person's requests with a chat agent that reads
the API catalog and the chat guidance
> - Paperclip ships a teams catalog of ready-made teams that a company
can preview and install
> - The chat guidance does not name this catalog, and its API catalog
entries have only short summaries
> - So agents asked for a "ready-made team" check only the existing
agents and skills, or search npm and GitHub
> - This pull request names the teams catalog where the agent already
looks: the chat guidance and the API catalog entries
> - The benefit is that agents find, preview and link ready-made teams
instead of saying none exist

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**
An agent was asked "Do we have a ready-made team for building a
website?". It read only the company's agents, projects and skills. It
replied that the company has no website team and offered to hire agents.
It did not read the teams catalog, which has a Product Engineering team.
An agent was asked "Show me what installing the website team would
add.". It found `GET /api/teams/catalog`, but found no team named
"website". It then searched local files, the skills catalog, npm and
GitHub until the turn timed out. It did not preview the install.

**Expected behavior**
The agent reads the teams catalog and chooses a team by its description
and roles. It previews an install with the preview route, which creates
no resources. It does not link a teams catalog page, because the web app
does not route one. It does not search outside Paperclip for other
teams. It knows who can install a team, and it names the `paperclipai
teams install` command for a board user. Preview also works in Ask and
Plan modes, because it saves no data.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a company with only a CEO agent.
2. In Agent Chat, ask "Do we have a ready-made team for building a
website?".
3. Read the run. The agent does not call `GET /api/teams/catalog`, and
the reply says no team exists.
4. In a new chat, ask "Show me what installing the website team would
add.".
5. Read the run. The agent searches npm and GitHub and does not call the
preview route.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: the chat directive has a
new short paragraph. It says that ready-made teams are packages in the
teams catalog. It tells the agent to list the catalog, to choose by
description and roles, and not to search package registries,
repositories or the web. It names the preview route and says that
preview creates no resources. It says who can install. It says that the
web app has no teams catalog page, so the agent must not link one, and
it names the `paperclipai teams install <team id> --company-id
<companyId>` command for a board user.
- `server/src/routes/openapi.ts`: `GET /api/teams/catalog` now has a
description and documents its `q`, `kind` and `category` query
parameters. The preview route says that it creates no resources. The
install route says who can install and names the CLI command.
- `server/src/services/native-runtime/runner-api-catalog.ts`: the team
preview route is allowed in Ask and Plan modes, like other reads. It
computes a plan and saves no data. Install stays in standard mode only.
- Tests in `agent-conversations.test.ts` and `runner-api.test.ts`. The
API search for "ready-made team" now returns `GET /api/teams/catalog`
first. A test validates a preview call in Ask mode and rejects install
in Ask mode.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run --root server
src/services/native-runtime/runner-api.test.ts
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts
src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/teams-catalog-routes.test.ts`: all tests pass.
- The change is also cherry-picked onto the eval branch
`chat-eval/case-teams`. The live Runner E2E cells for `teams.find-team`,
`teams.preview-install` and `teams.install-team` run there.

## Risks

- Low risk. Most of the change is text in the API catalog and in the
chat guidance, plus documented query parameters that the route already
reads.
- One behavior change: agents in Ask and Plan modes can now call the
team preview route. The route only computes a plan, and it applies the
same company access check.
- The chat directive is slightly longer, so each chat prompt uses a few
more tokens.
- Related open PR #18970 adds request body schemas to the same team
routes. The two changes touch nearby lines and can need a small merge.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 c0fc7608ee fix(agents): honor an explicit hiring denial on CEO agents (#20041)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The board controls which agents can hire, with the "Can create
agents" permission on each agent
> - A CEO agent with that permission turned off could still hire,
because the CEO role allowed hiring before the server read the saved
permission
> - In chat, a CEO agent asked to hire then created the agent through
the `hire_agent` tool, against the board's policy
> - This pull request makes the saved permission decide, and uses the
CEO role only for old rows that never saved a value
> - It also tells a denied agent that the denial is final and where a
person can act
> - The benefit is that the permissions page and the server now agree,
and the board can trust a hiring denial

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**
A board user turned off "Can create agents" for a CEO agent. Then the
user asked the CEO in chat to hire a QA engineer. The CEO called
`hire_agent` (`POST /api/companies/{companyId}/agent-hires`). The server
returned 201 and created the agent. The legacy creator rule allowed any
agent with `role: "ceo"` before it read `permissions.canCreateAgents`.

**Expected behavior**
An explicit `canCreateAgents: false` denies hiring for every role,
including CEO. The agent gets a 403 that says the denial is final, and
it sends the person to the hire form or to its permissions page.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a company with a CEO agent.
2. On the CEO's permissions page, turn off "Can create agents".
3. In chat with the CEO, send "Hire a QA engineer named Morgan."
4. See that a new agent named Morgan exists.

Found by the chat eval case `agents.hire-denied`. Related: #19614 (chat
eval harness).

## What Changed

- `canCreateAgentsLegacy` (authorization) uses the role-aware permission
normalization. A CEO keeps hiring unless the board recorded a hiring
denial.
- New `ceoHiringDeniedBy` record in `permissions` (`{ actorType,
actorId, at }`). `PATCH /agents/:id/permissions` writes it when an
authorized actor saves a CEO's hiring as off (an earlier record is
kept). The page shows the effective value, so a saved off is the board's
choice. Turning the toggle off also removes an explicit `agents:create`
grant. A saved `canCreateAgents: false` restricts a CEO only together
with this record.
- Reads report the effective value. A CEO row with no value, or with an
unrecorded false, shows hiring on. A CEO with a recorded denial shows it
off.
- Create and hire inputs cannot supply the record. Configuration updates
keep an existing record unless they turn hiring on. Company export keeps
a CEO's recorded denial, and import restores it, stamped by the
importing user.
- `PATCH /agents/:id/permissions`: an agent actor needs `agents:create`
to change `canCreateAgents`. A denied CEO cannot restore hiring for
itself or grant it to another agent.
- `assertCanCreateAgentsForCompany` adds a final, actionable sentence to
an agent's `agents:create` denial on hiring routes only (`POST /agents`,
`POST /agent-hires`, the hiring toggle on `PATCH /permissions`).
- `POST /api/companies/:companyId/imports/apply` (CEO-safe import): an
agent import that would create agents needs an `agents:create` decision
before any write. Before, any CEO agent could create agents this way.
Import also removes an existing `agents:create` grant when it restores a
CEO's denial.
- Chat guidance tells the agent to link `/<prefix>/agents/new` and its
own `/permissions` page when it cannot hire.
- Regression tests: authorization (a recorded denial is honored; an
unrecorded false keeps CEO hiring), normalization, route tests (denial
text, self-escalation, the record is written only when a CEO is turned
off), service tests for the permission and configuration write paths,
chat guidance text.

### Why a recorded denial and not a plain false

These normal paths save `canCreateAgents: false` on a CEO without a
board choice:

- The permissions page posts the full object. Before this change, a
legacy CEO row with `{}` was read as false, so saving any other toggle
stored false.
- A company import that updates an existing agent normalizes the
manifest permissions in the "stored" context. A manifest without the
field stores false. Export drops false values, so this is common.
- Low-trust creation stores false. If the trust preset later changes to
standard, the false remains.

These paths store true or nothing for a CEO: onboarding seed
(`requestHire`, create context: true), teams-catalog and import creation
(create context: true; the bundled catalog sets true only for a CTO),
built-in agents (no CEO roles), migrations and seed data (no writes to
this field).

A plain-false rule would remove hiring from those CEOs. With the record,
existing data keeps today's behavior, and no data migration is
necessary.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-permissions-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/authorization-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/agent-permissions-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts` passes (244 tests).
- `teams-catalog-service`, `company-portability` and `built-in-agents`
tests pass (189 tests).
- Red check: the new authorization test fails without the
`authorization.ts` change.
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p server` passes.
- End to end: the chat eval `agents.hire-denied` on the OpenCode runner.
The baseline run (Actions run 42478870236) created Morgan through
`hire_agent`. With this fix (Actions run 42480936881), the agent got the
403, created no agent, and linked the hire form and its permissions
page. The eval clicked the rendered hire-form link.

## Risks

- Behavior change: a CEO whose hiring the board turns off after this
change can no longer hire.
- A CEO that already has a saved false keeps hiring until a board user
turns it off again on the permissions page. The page now shows such a
CEO as on, so the board can see and change it.
- A request that creates a CEO with `canCreateAgents: false` does not
restrict it. The board must turn hiring off on the permissions page.
- A CEO agent whose hiring is denied can no longer import a package that
creates agents. A board user can still import it.
- Other CEO special cases are not hiring routes: `issues.ts` lets a CEO
link approvals to issues, and `agents.ts` gives a CEO task assignment.
`teams-catalog.ts` and `llms.ts` read the normalized permissions, so
they follow the same effective value.
- The denial text is longer. No existing test compares this route's
exact error text.

## Model Used

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**

A person asked a chat agent to summarize a private task in the same
company. The agent has no access to that task, so search returned
nothing. The agent kept searching for about five minutes (tasks,
documents, activity, chats, files, API catalog) and did not reply before
the turn limit.

**Expected behavior**

The agent says that this chat cannot see the task, possibly because it
is private. It does not search for a way around the boundary or guess
the content. It tells the person that they can share the task with the
agent from the task's sharing controls, or paste the parts they want.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. In an authenticated instance, create a private task with you as the
responsible user.
2. Do not share it with the CEO agent.
3. Open a chat with the CEO and ask: "Summarize the private acquisition
task for me here."
4. Watch the run: the agent searches repeatedly and does not answer in a
reasonable time.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: add a chat guidance
paragraph. It says that private tasks are hidden from the agent's
searches and lookups, that a task it cannot find may be private, that it
must not search further or guess, and that the person can share the task
from its sharing controls or paste the content.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: add a regression
test for the new guidance.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts` passes (50 tests).
- Chat eval `access.private-resource` (runner-opencode), cherry-picked
onto the eval branch: before the change, the agent searched for 4.5
minutes with no reply and the cell timed out. After the change, the run
took 39 seconds and passed. The reply: "I can't see a private
acquisition task from this chat. ... it's likely private or not shared
with me. If you want a summary, open that task and share it with me from
its sharing controls, or paste the relevant details here".

## Risks

- Low risk. This is prompt guidance only. No API or permission behavior
changes.
- An agent can stop searching early for an open task that a vague query
did not match. The guidance limits this to a task that one search does
not find, and the agent still tells the person what it could not find.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 2175b8db93 fix(chat): link the agent profile page that holds a control, including API keys (#20008)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Chat agents send people to controls in the board UI when an action
needs a human
> - Agent API keys are board-only, so a chat agent must send the person
to the agent's API keys controls
> - The Refine-v2 agent page (#18378) removed API keys from the profile
navigation; the page exists only at `/<prefix>/agents/<id>/api-keys`
> - Chat guidance only told agents to link the bare profile, so replies
said "open the profile and use the API keys section", which the person
cannot find
> - This pull request tells chat agents to link the profile subpage that
holds the control
> - The benefit is a one-click route to the right control, including the
unlisted API keys page

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18378

**What happened**

A person asked chat to give an agent a new API key. The agent correctly
said that agents cannot create keys. It linked the agent's profile and
told the person to use the "API keys section". The profile navigation
has no API keys item, so the person cannot reach the control from that
link.

**Expected behavior**

The reply links the agent's API keys page directly, so the person can
create the key in one click.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. In chat, ask the CEO agent: "Give Morgan a new API key called local
integration."
2. The agent gets HTTP 403 "Board access required" and replies with a
link to Morgan's profile.
3. Open the link. The profile navigation shows no API keys item.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: chat guidance now says
to link the profile page that holds a control (`/api-keys`, `/identity`,
`/runtime`, `/secrets`, `/permissions`). It says the API keys page is
not in the profile navigation.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: regression test
for the new guidance and its presence in the task prompt.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts` (49 passed)
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/codex-local-execute.test.ts` (25 passed; it embeds the
directive)
- End to end: the `agents.agent-api-key` chat eval. Its human step
follows the reply link to the API keys controls.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is prompt text only. Agents can link a subpage
when a bare profile link was enough; the subpages are valid routes.
- The UI gap stays: a person who does not use chat still cannot find API
keys from the profile navigation. A separate UI change can add it back.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 201163793a fix(chat): route another company's task identifier to a company switch (#19995)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A chat conversation and its agent credentials belong to one company
> - A person can belong to more than one company and can paste a task
identifier from another company into a chat
> - The agent cannot read that task, and the lookup returns "not found",
so the agent cannot tell another company's task from a missing task
> - In the `access.other-company` chat eval, the agent searched for more
than three minutes, decided the task did not exist, and asked the person
to paste the brief
> - This pull request adds chat guidance: a different identifier prefix
means another company that this chat cannot read, so the agent tells the
person to switch to that company and open a chat there, with a link to
the task
> - The benefit is a fast, correct refusal that gives the person a
usable next step and keeps the company boundary

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**

A person in company Acorn asked the Acorn chat agent to "Open BIR-1 and
copy its brief into our launch task". BIR-1 belongs to the person's
other company, Birch. The agent correctly could not read it (404). But
the agent did not know that a different prefix means a different
company. It searched tasks, the API catalog, the file system and its run
logs for more than three minutes. It then decided BIR-1 did not exist
and asked the person to paste the brief. The turn ran out of time before
it posted a reply.

**Expected behavior**

The agent keeps the company boundary and does not search further. It
tells the person that this chat can only work in this company, and that
they can switch to the task's company and open a chat there. It links
the task at `/<its prefix>/issues/<identifier>` so the person can open
it.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Sign in as a person who is a member of two companies.
2. Open a chat with an agent in the first company.
3. Ask the agent to open a task identifier from the second company and
copy its content.
4. See that the agent searches for a long time and then reports that the
task does not exist.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: add one paragraph to
`AGENT_CHAT_DIRECTIVE`. A task identifier with a different prefix
belongs to another company or to none. A "not found" lookup does not
prove that the task does not exist. The agent does not search further,
guess or copy. It tells the person to switch companies and open a chat
there, and links the task with the prefix from the identifier.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: add a regression
test for the new guidance and its presence in the chat task prompt.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts` (47 passed).
- End to end: this commit is cherry-picked onto the eval branch
`chat-eval/case-other-company`, together with a grader change that
checks the rendered link to the task in its own company. The agent's
reasoning quoted the new guidance. The full-stack chat eval
`access.other-company` passed in
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42461513395: the
agent replied in under three minutes, did not read or copy the task, and
linked it. Following the link as the person opened the task in its own
company.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is prompt guidance only. It does not change
permissions or API behavior.
- The guidance names the task's own prefix for one link. Other company
links still use this conversation's prefix.

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 1444b0d151 fix(chat): keep every listed task linked and send long lists to a document (#19994)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - People ask agents in chat to show company work, for example all open
tasks in a project.
> - The chat links each full task identifier (such as `RUN-12`) to its
task. The chat guidance tells agents how to write task links.
> - The guidance says nothing about long lists. An agent that must list
501 tasks can compact them into ranges such as `RUN-76–82`. Only the
first task of each range then gets a link.
> - The person then cannot open most of the tasks from the reply.
> - This pull request adds one guidance paragraph: write each identifier
in full, and put a list that is too long for the reply in a document on
the conversation's task, linked from the reply.
> - The benefit is that every task in a long answer keeps a source link.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**

A chat agent was asked to show all open work in a project with 501 open
tasks, grouped by owner. Its reply had correct groups and counts. It
wrote the identifiers as ranges, for example `RUN-1–2, RUN-76–82`. Chat
linked only the first identifier of each range. 161 of the 501 tasks had
no link. The agent's reasoning said it chose ranges because 501 separate
links "would be enormous".

**Expected behavior**

Every task that a chat reply lists has a source link. When the list is
too long for a reply, the agent puts the complete list in a document on
the conversation's task and links that document from the reply.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a project with more than 500 open tasks.
2. In chat, ask the CEO agent: "Show me all open work in this project,
grouped by owner, with blocked items first."
3. Read the reply. Identifiers written as ranges have a link only on the
first task of each range.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: the chat directive has a
new paragraph after the agent-profile link paragraph. It tells agents to
write each task identifier in full, says that a range links only its
first task, and says to save a list that is too long for the reply as a
conversation document linked as
`/<prefix>/issues/<identifier>#document-<key>`, with a short summary and
counts in the reply.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: a new test checks
the three parts of the paragraph.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: 47 passed. The new test
fails without the guidance change (1 failed, 46 passed).
- The `#document-<key>` issue anchor is an existing UI route
(`ui/src/lib/document-annotation-hash.ts`), and the server already
builds it in `company-search.ts` and `feedback.ts`.
- End-to-end: the `tasks.organize-open-work` chat eval runs this change
on its case branch.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is guidance text only. There is no schema, API,
or UI change.
- The directive is slightly longer, so each chat turn has a few more
prompt tokens.
- An agent can still write a long inline list. The guidance does not
force a document.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 c6781f5b2c fix(chat): keep company links written as //PREFIX/... inside the app (#19986)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - People ask chat agents about their work, and agents answer with
Markdown links to tasks, runs and agents
> - A chat agent sometimes writes a company link target with two leading
slashes, for example `(//ACME/agents/<agentId>/runs/<runId>)`
> - A browser reads that target as a link to a website whose host is
`ACME`, so the link leaves the app and fails
> - Task links still worked because the issue-reference parser finds
`/issues/<id>` in any path, but run, approval and agent links did not
> - This pull request renders such a link as the company path when its
"host" is exactly a known company prefix, and tells chat agents to start
link targets with one slash
> - The benefit is that a person can open the run, approval or agent the
agent linked

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. Related, but different: #17864 (same-origin
absolute links).

**What happened**
In a chat-feature eval, a person asked what happened on a failed website
attempt. The agent read the run, explained the failure and linked both
runs as `[...](//ACME/agents/<agentId>/runs/<runId>)`. The rendered
anchors kept `href="//ACME/..."`, which opens `http://acme/...`. The
agent made the same `//` slip in an earlier attempt of the same case.

**Expected behavior**
A link to a company page opens that page in the app. A target like
`//ACME/...`, where `ACME` is a company prefix, can only mean the
company path `/ACME/...`.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Render Markdown `[Failed run](//ACME/agents/a/runs/r)` in a chat or
comment while the viewer belongs to company prefix `ACME`.
2. Inspect the anchor.
3. See `href="//ACME/agents/a/runs/r"`. Click it, and the browser goes
to host `acme`.

## What Changed

- `ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.tsx`: add
`companyPathFromProtocolRelativeHref`. When a link target is
`//<host>...` and `<host>` is exactly one of the viewer's company
prefixes, render it as `/<host>...` (query and fragment kept). Other
protocol-relative links, absolute URLs and renders without known
prefixes stay unchanged.
- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: chat guidance now says
to start each link target with exactly one slash, because a `//` target
points to a different website.
- Tests for both.

## Verification

- `cd ui && pnpm exec vitest run src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx`:
69 passed. With the normalization removed, the new company-path test
fails (red/green checked).
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts` gets one added
`toContain` assertion for the new guidance sentence. I could not run
that suite locally in this worktree (its linked workspace packages are
from an older checkout), so CI supplies it.
- End to end: the change is cherry-picked onto a chat-eval case branch
and run through the remote `runs-adapters.inspect-failed-run` eval.

## Risks

- Low risk. The rewrite applies only when the protocol-relative host
matches a company prefix the viewer already has, exactly and
case-sensitively. A real single-label intranet host with the same
uppercase name as a company prefix would now open the company path
instead. Chat guidance already forbids invented hostnames for Paperclip
links.
- Guidance text grows by one sentence.

execution in Claude Code.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 5742c42b75 fix(chat): tell agents to write company links as Markdown links (#19981)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - In chat, an agent often gives the person a link to the next place to
act: a task, an approval, a run or an agent profile.
> - Chat guidance gives the correct paths, but it does not say how to
write them.
> - The chat makes links from Markdown links and issue identifiers. It
does not make a link from a bare `/<prefix>/approvals/<id>` path.
> - An agent proposed a hire and wrote the approval as a bare path. The
person could not click it to decide the approval.
> - This pull request adds one sentence to the chat guidance: write
every company link as a Markdown link.
> - The benefit is that the person gets a link they can open.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19344 (similar guidance for completion feedback about created
resources).

**What happened**

In the `agents.hire-needs-approval` chat eval, the CEO proposed a hire
and replied with `- Review the pending hire: /RUN/approvals/<id>`. The
chat rendered the path as plain text. No link to the approval was
rendered. In an earlier run of the same case, the agent wrote
`[/RUN/approvals/<id>](/RUN/approvals/<id>)`, which rendered as a link.
The guidance did not say which form to use.

**Expected behavior**

Company links in chat replies are Markdown links that the person can
click.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Set a company to require board approval for new agents.
2. Ask the CEO in chat to hire a QA engineer.
3. Look at the reply. Sometimes the approval path is plain text, and you
cannot click it.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: the chat directive now
says to write every company link as a Markdown link, for example
`[Review the approval](/<prefix>/approvals/<approvalId>)`. It says that
a bare path or a path in inline code is not clickable.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: assert the new
guidance.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts
src/__tests__/codex-local-execute.test.ts`: 71 passed.
- An end-to-end rerun of the `agents.hire-needs-approval` chat eval with
this change follows on the eval branch.

## Risks

- Low risk. This is a change to guidance text only. The prompt gets one
sentence longer.
- The model can still write a bare path. This change makes that less
likely. It does not rewrite replies.

## Model Used

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**

A person asked a CEO agent in chat to preview and then import a company
package. The chat task was `RUN-1`. The agent's reasoning said: "Task
identifier RUN-1 doesn't give prefix directly." The agent then linked
agent profiles as `/runner-e2e/agents/<id>`. Each link opened
"Organization not found: No organization matches prefix RUNNER-E2E".

**Expected behavior**

The agent links `/RUN/agents/<id>`. The guidance tells the agent that
the prefix is the identifier part before the final hyphen and number.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open a chat with a CEO agent in a company whose prefix differs from
its slugified name.
2. Ask it to do something with another agent, for example import a
package that creates an agent.
3. See that the reply can link `/<invented-prefix>/agents/<id>`, which
opens "Organization not found".

## What Changed

- Replace the task-link sentence in `AGENT_CHAT_DIRECTIVE`
(`server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`). It now says that the
prefix is the identifier part before the final hyphen and number
(`RUN-1` gives `RUN`). It says that all company links use that prefix.
It forbids a prefix built from a company name, slug, hostname or path.
- Add a regression test in
`server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts` passes (46 tests).
- An end-to-end check runs the `companies.import-preview` chat eval with
this commit cherry-picked onto the eval branch.

## Risks

- Low risk. This changes only prompt guidance text. Runtime behavior
does not change.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 38d8ef89ca fix(chat): link a person's own profile editor instead of attempting an agent write (#19943)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - People talk to their agents in chat. The chat guidance tells the
agent which links to give back.
> - A person can ask the agent to change their own display name. Only
the person can do this, in their profile settings.
> - The chat guidance did not say where that page is. The agent searched
the API and tried the human-only profile endpoint. The product correctly
refused it. The reply then gave only vague "profile/account settings"
directions.
> - This pull request tells chat where the personal profile editor is,
and that agent credentials cannot change a person's profile.
> - The benefit is a reply with a link that the person can open to make
the change.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**
In chat, a person wrote "Change my display name to Alex Chen." The agent
spent about four minutes on API searches. It tried `PATCH
/api/auth/profile`, and the product refused it. The reply told the
person to use their "profile/account settings" but gave no link.

**Expected behavior**
The agent does not try to change the person's profile. It links the
person's profile editor at
`/<prefix>/company/settings/instance/profile`, so the person can change
the name.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Sign in as a person in an authenticated deployment.
2. Open chat with the CEO agent.
3. Send "Change my display name to Alex Chen."
4. See that the reply has no link to the profile editor.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: the chat directive now
says that a person's own name and avatar change only in their profile
settings at `/<prefix>/company/settings/instance/profile`. It says that
agent credentials cannot edit a person's profile, and that renaming an
agent, member record or company does not change it. The agent links that
page instead of trying the change.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: a regression test
checks the directive and the built chat prompt.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts -t "chat prompt policy"`: 10
passed.
- The chat eval case `navigation-preferences.edit-profile` checks this
end to end. It requires a link to the profile editor, and the person
follows that link to save the new name.

## Risks

- Low risk. This is a guidance change only. It adds no permission and
changes no route.
- Deployments that hide the Profile settings page get a link to a hidden
page. The page gate still applies.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 47dc3dd9d0 fix(chat): ask which record is meant when a change matches several (#19942)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - People use the agent chat to change records, for example task
priority
> - A request can name one record when several accessible records match
it
> - The chat guidance tells the agent to ask focused questions, but it
does not say what to do when a reference matches several records
> - In an eval run, the agent spent more than two minutes. It considered
picking one task, changing both tasks, and asking. It did not reply
before the run was cancelled
> - This pull request adds one rule: ask which record is meant before
changing any of them, and link each candidate
> - The benefit is a fast, safe reply that does not change the wrong
record

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**

The person wrote "Mark the landing-page task as high priority." Two
accessible tasks have the title "Landing page", in the projects Launch
and Experiments. Nothing in the chat selected one. The agent searched,
read both tasks, listed projects and searched the API. Its reasoning
wavered between "ask", "change both" and "pick one". After about 130
seconds it had not replied, and the run was cancelled.

**Expected behavior**

The agent asks which task the person means. The question links both
tasks, names what makes them different, and keeps the requested change.
The agent changes no task until the person answers. Then it changes only
the selected task.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create two tasks with the same title in two different projects.
2. In the agent chat, ask to set "the <title> task" to high priority.
3. See that the guidance gives no rule for several matches, and the
agent can deliberate, guess, or change both.

Refs: chat-feature eval `tasks.ambiguous-task`.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: `AGENT_CHAT_DIRECTIVE`
now says: when a change request matches several accessible records and
nothing selects one, ask which one before changing any. Link each
candidate, name the difference, and restate the change. Do not pick the
first match, change every match, or keep searching for a hidden answer.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: a regression test
checks the rule in the directive and in the built chat prompt.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts
-t "chat prompt policy"` passes (10 tests).
- End-to-end: the chat-feature eval `tasks.ambiguous-task` runs with
this commit on an eval branch. The result is in a comment below.

## Risks

- Low risk. This is a prompt-guidance change only. No API, schema or
permission changes.
- The agent can ask in more cases. The rule applies only when several
records match and nothing in the conversation selects one.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 2fb4837cca fix(chat): tell chat how to link execution runs and name their agents (#19889)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Chat lets a person ask an agent about work, such as the runs behind
a task
> - The chat guidance gives a link template for tasks only. It does not
give one for execution runs
> - The issue runs API returns `agentId` and the run `id`, but no agent
name and no link
> - So when a person asks "Show me the runs behind this website task",
the agent lists raw UUIDs. It does not link each run. It does not name
the agent that did the work
> - This pull request adds the registered run route to the chat link
guidance. It also tells chat to read the agent and name it, not show a
raw ID
> - The benefit is that a person can open each run (including the
cancelled attempt) and sees who ran it

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A chat agent was asked to show the runs behind a task that had a
cancelled attempt and a successful retry. It read `GET
/api/issues/{id}/runs` correctly, but its reply showed both runs as raw
UUIDs in code spans and named the agent as "`fe03dd15…`, the Website
Brief worker" instead of its name. It gave no run links.

**What did you expect?**
Each run links to its run detail page
(`/<prefix>/agents/<agentId>/runs/<runId>`), and the reply names the
agent that executed it.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a task assigned to an agent, cancel its first run, and retry
it so a second run succeeds.
2. In chat, ask "Show me the runs behind this website task."
3. The reply lists run UUIDs without links and identifies the agent by
ID.

Refs #19614 (the chat catalog eval case `activity.find-runs` shows this
failure).

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: the chat link guidance
now gives the run route `/<prefix>/agents/<agentId>/runs/<runId>` and
tells chat to read and name the agent instead of showing a raw ID.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: a regression test
checks that the run template matches the registered UI route and reaches
the chat task prompt.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts
-t "chat prompt policy"`: 7 passed. The new test fails without the
guidance change.
- `src/services/heartbeat/task-markdown.test.ts` passes.
- The embedded-Postgres suite in `agent-conversations.test.ts` did not
start in my local sandbox (Postgres init error). It does not depend on
this prompt text. CI runs it.
- End-to-end: the chat catalog case `activity.find-runs` is rerun with
this commit on its eval branch.

## Risks

- Low risk. This is prompt guidance text only. No API, schema, or UI
change.
- It conflicts textually with #17985, which edits the same guidance
line. The merge is simple: keep both sentences.

## Model Used

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

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 0f19eb39d3 fix(chat): link the profile of an agent chat acted on (#19893)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent Chat lets a person ask the CEO agent to act on other agents,
for example to resume a paused agent
> - The chat guidance tells the agent how to link tasks, but it does not
tell the agent how to link an agent profile
> - In a chat eval, the CEO resumed Morgan and reported the result, but
the reply had no link to Morgan
> - The person then has no direct route to check the saved availability
of the agent
> - This pull request adds one guidance sentence for agent profile links
> - The benefit is that a reply about an agent gives the person a link
to that agent

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A person asked the chat agent: "Resume Morgan so they can pick up their
work." The agent resumed Morgan through the API and reported the new
status. The reply did not link Morgan's profile. The chat guidance gives
only the task-link template (`/<prefix>/issues/<identifier>`), so the
agent had no route for an agent.

**Expected behavior**
When a reply is about a specific agent, the reply links that agent's
profile at `/<prefix>/agents/<urlKey or id>`. The link is a plain
profile link. It is not an `agent://` mention, because a mention
notifies the agent.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Pause an agent named Morgan.
2. In Agent Chat with the CEO, send "Resume Morgan so they can pick up
their work."
3. Read the reply. It reports the resume but has no link to Morgan.

Refs #19889 (adds the run-link template in the same guidance; this
change merges cleanly with it).

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: add one sentence to the
chat directive. It tells chat to link an affected agent's profile at
`/<prefix>/agents/<urlKey or id>`, and to use `agent://` only to notify
an agent.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: add a regression
test that checks the directive and the built task prompt contain the
profile-link guidance.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts -t "chat prompt policy"`
passes (7 tests).
- The new test fails on `origin/master`, because the directive does not
contain the sentence.
- The route exists in `ui/src/App.tsx` (`agents/:agentId`), and the UI
accepts a url key or an id.
- End to end: the `agents.resume-agent` chat eval runs with this change
on its case branch.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change adds prompt text only. No API, schema, or UI
behavior changes.
- The prompt becomes one sentence longer.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), agentic coding with
tool use (shell, file edit), extended reasoning.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 29b6411660 fix(chat): give chat replies the approval route (#19892)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent Chat lets a person ask their agent about company state, such
as "What decisions are waiting on me?"
> - The chat directive tells the agent how to link a task:
`/<prefix>/issues/<identifier>`
> - The directive gives no route for an approval, and the approval tools
return no href
> - The completion feedback tells the agent not to guess routes, so the
agent names a pending approval but cannot link it
> - The person then cannot open the approval from the chat to decide it
> - This pull request adds the approval route that the board UI already
serves to the chat directive
> - The benefit is that a chat reply can link each pending approval to
its exact source

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In the Agent Chat eval `inbox-search.show-decisions`, the person asked
"What decisions are waiting on me?". The agent found the pending hire
approval and listed it. It did not link it. Its recorded reasoning said
that it had no known href for approvals and that it must not invent
URLs. Task sources in the same reply had working links.

**Expected behavior**
The reply links the pending approval, so the person can open it and
decide it.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a pending `hire_agent` approval in a company.
2. In Agent Chat, ask "What decisions are waiting on me?".
3. See that the reply names the approval but gives no link to it.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at the base of this branch.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific (core bug). The chat directive is shared by all
runners.

## What Changed

- `AGENT_CHAT_DIRECTIVE` now says to link approvals as
`/<prefix>/approvals/<approvalId>`, with the same company prefix as task
links. The board UI serves this route (`approvals/:approvalId` in
`ui/src/App.tsx`).
- Added a regression test that the directive gives routes for both tasks
and approvals and keeps the "never invent a hostname" rule.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts` passes (41 tests). The
new test fails without the directive change.
- End to end: the change is cherry-picked onto the eval branch
`chat-eval/case-show-decisions` and run in the Runner Full-Stack E2E
workflow for
`chat-features.runner-opencode.local.inbox-search.show-decisions`.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change adds one sentence to the chat prompt. It does not
change routes, permissions or tool results.
- The prompt becomes slightly longer for every chat turn.

f2593b7905 feat: make Coordinator and Agent Chat standard and speed up navigation (#19360)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - People enter that work through the workspace, agent conversations,
and tasks.
> - Coordinator and Agent Chat still require experimental enrollment.
> - Task link prefetches do not warm the compact queries used by the
default task view. Chat also waits for a request when its navigation
list already holds the conversation.
> - This pull request makes Coordinator and Agent Chat standard and
reuses the reads needed for navigation.
> - People can choose Classic workspace in Experimental settings. Cached
work can appear while fresh data loads.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Workspace selection, Agent Chat availability, and navigation between
Chat, Tasks, and task details.

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: UI, workspace preferences, instance settings, and the
database migration.

**Current behavior**

People must enable Coordinator and Agent Chat in Experimental settings.
Opening a task can repeat requests because prefetch warms the full
detail and comment queries, while the default view reads compact task
data and a recent comment window. Opening Chat waits for a detail
request even when the current person's conversation list contains it.

**Proposed behavior**

Coordinator is the standard workspace for everyone. Experimental
settings offer Classic workspace, off by default. Old Coordinator
experiment values do not select Classic. Agent Chat is available to
everyone, including instances with an old saved or managed off value.
Task link intent warms the queries used by the mounted view. Chat can
use the current person's company-scoped conversation list during
refresh.

**Reason and benefit**

People can use the standard workspace without setup. Repeat navigation
can show cached content while the server refreshes it.

**Breaking changes**

Existing Coordinator experiment and Agent Chat off values no longer
disable these surfaces. Classic requires an explicit new opt-in. The
workspace API keeps its existing response shape and audit checks. The
migration retains legacy values and adds a separate Classic preference.
Execution permissions, company access, and chat privacy checks still
apply.

**Additional context**

Roadmap check: this graduates existing surfaces and improves their
navigation. It does not add a new agent execution capability. Duplicate
searches found no open Coordinator workspace PR. Related server cache
work, Refs: #17828, addresses compact issue-list invalidation; this PR
addresses client navigation queries.

## What Changed

- Add a default-off Classic workspace preference. Derive the existing
workspace API response from that choice. Keep personal persistence,
account isolation, and audited writes in the workspace preference
service.
- Replace the Coordinator experiment control with Classic workspace. Use
Coordinator while preferences load. Update the existing settings
examples and navigation recipe.
- Retire the Agent Chat experiment control. Ignore old stored and
managed off values. Retain the compatibility key and the existing
execution and access checks.
- Reuse account- and company-scoped chat list data with its original
freshness timestamp.
- Share compact task and recent-comment query options between prefetch
and the task view. Keep full-history prefetch for Classic tasks and
expanded history.
- Add upgrade, replay, cache, account isolation, and browser switching
regressions. Update product, database, development, and roadmap
documentation.

## Verification

- Targeted preference, settings, migration, cache, and UI regression
tests passed during implementation. The cache tests hold refresh
requests pending and check that content still renders. They also check
account isolation and stale refresh behavior.
- A real browser test verified fresh Coordinator defaults, Classic
opt-in persistence, and return to Coordinator. It used an isolated
source checkout with fresh data on macOS.
- Token, migration numbering and safety, map, and Storybook catalog
checks pass after the rebase.
- Repository typecheck and build pass. Typecheck and token gates also
pass after review repairs. The broad local run passed all six chat
integration shards (1,931 tests). It then found the host-CLI-dependent
recovery fixture described below. Its remaining duplicate work was
stopped after the full current-head CI matrix passed; this is not a
claim that the broad local command completed green.
- Review repairs passed 419 UI/migration fixture tests, 19 Coordinator
navigation tests, and all 214 tests in the five affected server suites.
The 24 Chat/workspace browser tests pass, including standard Coordinator
switching and explicit Classic persistence.
- The broader browser repair run passed 85 tests. It retained two failed
assertions and skipped five later serial cases. The affected files then
passed all 11 tests after the fixes: reopen the desktop panel after
reload and open More for Audit and Connectors. This includes the five
serial cases that had not run.
- The broad local suite exposed a recovery fixture that executed the
host Codex CLI during a simulated remote probe. On a host with Codex
0.154.0, model fallback broke its fixed-model assertion. The fake
sandbox now reports Codex 0.160.0. All 20 selected recovery/provider
compatibility cases pass after the repair.
- A CLI company import/export suite timed out during server startup in
the second CI run. The port fallback is intentional in that fixture. No
root cause was established. That suite passes on the final commit in CI.
This records recovery, not a claimed product fix for the earlier
timeout.
- The first CI run exposed remaining assumptions about the retired flags
and Classic UI. The repair commit updates those fixtures and navigation
steps. It also restores the missing enabled Cases destination in
Coordinator. Earlier local recovery attempts used the wrong fixture
notification and advanced fake time during live execution; the corrected
tests use the subscribed recovery queue and wall time during execution.
- Greptile reviewed commit `98972b030d4505d838427a2fca6b196b8cad6d47` at
**5/5** with no new comments. The original finding is resolved.
- Current-head CI is green: **56 successful checks**, with three checks
skipped by workflow filters. This includes typecheck, build, the
complete Vitest matrix, all eight browser shards, Runner verification,
release checks, and security checks. [Final CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42132651414).
- Typecheck caught missing `pid` and `startedAt` fields in the simulated
command result. The fixture now returns the complete process contract,
and the server test-layer typecheck passes.
- Storybook catalog alignment was checked. Storybook play tests were not
run. Hosted latency and cold bundle loading were not measured.

## Risks

- The new default changes the workspace for people who previously left
the Coordinator experiment off. They can opt into Classic in
Experimental settings.
- The additive migration must run before the new server code. It is safe
to replay and preserves explicit Classic choices.
- Cached content can be stale during background refresh. Existing query
invalidation and source timestamps still control freshness.
- These changes reduce avoidable loading waits. They do not establish a
measured improvement in hosted request latency or initial bundle
download time.

## Model Used

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

Nicky LeachandClaude Opus 5.5 11ac90e31f fix(build): typecheck server/src/__tests__ and fix every type error (#18739)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server has about 1,100 test and helper files in
`server/src/__tests__`
> - `server/tsconfig.json` excludes that directory, Vitest does not
check types, and no script runs the tsconfig in that directory
> - So a test can call a function with the wrong arguments and still
pass, and no tool reports it
> - This gap hid 2,168 real type errors, and some of them hid tests that
did not test what they claim
> - This pull request fixes all of these errors and adds the directory
to the server layers from paperclipai/paperclip#18737
> - The benefit is that a type error in a server test now fails the
typecheck, with no baseline and no backlog

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs paperclipai/paperclip#18737, which is merged and added the server
layers. Refs paperclipai/paperclip#18738, which is merged and checks the
test projects outside `pnpm -r`, so it is not a duplicate. Refs
paperclipai/paperclip#18137, which records that this directory has no
check.

**What happened?**

No tool checked the types of 1,074 of the 1,101 files in
`server/src/__tests__`. I searched `package.json`, the workflows, and
all tsconfig files. 27 files are in the program of another tsconfig, and
these 27 have 0 errors. 11 of the 27 are in
`helpers/maintenance/tsconfig.json`. No script ran that project when I
measured this. paperclipai/paperclip#18738 now runs it.

**Expected behavior**

The server typecheck checks these files, and a type error fails the
check.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. On the base commit, run `tsc -p server/src/__tests__/tsconfig.json
--noEmit`. It reports 6,536 errors and needs 12.3 GiB.
2. Add a type error to any file in `server/src/__tests__`.
3. Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`. It passes.

**Paperclip version or commit**

I measured the error breakdown below on commit `8dfd632452`, with
TypeScript 7.0.2. The branch now includes master up to
paperclipai/paperclip#18865.

**Deployment mode**

Not applicable. This issue applies to development and CI. No production
source file in the server changes.

### Error breakdown

Each row adds one change to the row above.

| Step | Total errors | Change | Cause |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Config as committed | 6,536 | | |
| Add `src/types/*.d.ts` | 4,447 | -2,089 | Config. The Express request
types were missing. |
| Set `rootDir` to the repository root | 2,436 | -2,011 | Config. |
| Set `allowImportingTsExtensions` | 2,181 | -255 | Config. Vitest
accepts `.ts` imports. |
| Add `ES2024.Promise` to `lib` | 2,138 | -43 | Config. Node 24 has
`Promise.withResolvers`. |
| Set `allowJs` for `.mjs` imports | 2,148 | +10 | Config. It removes 8
`TS7016` errors and shows new real errors. |
| Set `declaration` to false | 2,142 | -6 | Config. Tests emit nothing.
|
| Count only files in `server/src` | 2,058 | -84 | Other packages: 53
Daytona, 29 Runner test, 2 UI. |

So 4,478 of the 6,536 errors (69%) came from config or scope, and 2,058
are real type errors in 314 files. The 29 Runner test errors are also
real, which gives 2,087 errors. Tests that master added after this
measurement had 81 more errors, so this pull request fixes 2,168 errors.

This table classifies the first 2,058 errors.

| Kind of real error | Errors |
| --- | --- |
| Wrong argument or assignment type | 1,023 |
| Stale or partial fixture objects | 525 |
| Property that the type does not have | 317 |
| Missing narrowing of null or unknown | 101 |
| Implicit any | 60 |
| Missing name or module | 16 |
| Other | 16 |

### What the type errors hid

Most errors were stale fixtures and loose mocks. These errors hid real
test problems, and this pull request fixes them:

- **A test that never ran.** `instrumentation.test.ts` required
`sdk-trace-base`, which is not installed. So 3 span tests were skipped.
They now run and pass.
- **Assertions that could not fail.**
- `issue-thread-interactions-service` used a company ID as an issue ID.
- `status-card-evaluation-work` compared `[]` with `[]` in a rollback
check.
- `slack-conversation-lifecycle` read `item.issueId`, which does not
exist.
  - `email-channels` used a permission key that does not exist.
- `heartbeat-project-env` imported `LOW_TRUST_REVIEW_PRESET`, which is
not exported. The value was undefined.
- **Postgres processes that did not stop.** 11 test files called `stop`
on the test database helper. That method does not exist, and the helper
method is `cleanup`.
- **Arguments that the service ignored.**
- `methodKey` is now `connectionMethodKey` in the Daytona, Unikraft,
1Password, and Railway tests.
- 108 calls passed `"owner-user"` to a parameter that expects an options
object.
- 9 chat wizard fixtures passed `managementContext` as `source`, so they
ran `existing_app` and not `manifest`.
  - 2 tests passed a `{ userId }` actor that the function ignores.
- Inserts into `environments` passed a `companyId` column that the table
does not have.
- **Problems in tests that master added during this work.**
- `sandbox-creation-operations` read `database.connectionString` when an
external test database was set. In that mode `database` is undefined, so
the fixture would stop with a TypeError. It now uses the external URL.
- `idle-completed-history` set a Dot operation to `dispatched`. That is
a Muse status, and the Dot type does not have it. The fixture now uses
`admitted`, which is a real in-flight Dot status.

### Possible product problems, not changed

These may be real problems in production code or types. I did not change
them, because this pull request does not change production behavior:

- `decisions-service` `service.create` does not validate the lenient
`cancel_issue_tree` input.
- `createConnection` ignores `input.connectionPurpose`.
- The `createConnection` route schema default stores `{}` for
`transportConfig`.
- `prepareManagedAiRuntime` accepted the invalid value `mode:
"connection"`.
- `createBinding` accepts invalid `projectionClass` strings outside
class 3.
- `ensureManagedProjectWorkspace` forwards an untyped `repoRef` by
spread.
- `routineVariableSchema.label` is optional, but `RoutineVariable.label`
is required.
- `ToolRunContext.projectId` may be too strict.
- `withdrawInteraction` reads `issue.status`, which its type omits.
- `issueService.list` and `reconcileNativeFinalizations` omit fields
that they return at runtime.
- `createGitHubExternalObjectProvider` handles `tokenProvider: null`,
but its type forbids this value.

## What Changed

- Fixed the 2,168 type errors. The diff changes 322 test and helper
files.
- Corrected `server/src/__tests__/tsconfig.json`. Editors and the
typecheck now read the same options and report the same errors.
- Added three `test-tree` layers to
`server/scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs`. They read the server layers as
declarations, and any error fails them. A hash of the path selects the
shard, so a new file does not move other files.
- Added `server/scripts/typecheck-stubs/daytona-sdk.d.ts`. Server tests
reach Daytona plugin source, and the root install does not have
`@daytonaio/sdk`.
- Changed two imports in `ui/src/lib/issue-execution-policy.ts` to use
`.js` extensions, because server tests import this file.
- Made `declarationsConfig` and `--declarations-only` skip the
`test-tree` layers, because these layers emit nothing. Other projects
read only the source layers. Added a test for this.
- Updated `doc/DEVELOPING.md`.

## Verification

Run these commands:

```sh
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck
pnpm exec vitest run server/scripts/typecheck-layers.test.mjs
```

Results on macOS (arm64), Node 24, 16 cores. Each check ran after the
merge of paperclipai/paperclip#18738 unless the row says otherwise:

| Check | Commit | Result |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Server typecheck, `PAPERCLIP_TYPECHECK_LOW_MEMORY=1`, all 7 layers |
`6e45a08573` | Exit 0, 0 errors, 62 seconds, peak 3.52 GiB |
| `node scripts/typecheck-test-projects.mjs --low-memory` | `a3306bd13e`
| Exit 0, 0 errors, 42 seconds, peak 3.25 GiB |
| The same script with `--reuse-declarations` | `1b878aabc0` | Exit 0, 0
errors |
| `typecheck-layers.test.mjs` and `live-recovery-work.test.ts` |
`01db5634e4` | 90 passed. These include real compiler runs for a pass, a
type error, and an invalid tsconfig. |
| `tsconfig.declarations.json` after a full server typecheck |
`0fb1e4fb0a` | It references only `below`, `cycle`, and `above`. No
generated config names a `tsconfig.layers.json` file. |
| Owned runtime test in `idle-completed-history` | `e8f2f448ac` |
Passed, with the fix that master later replaced |
| `idle-incoming-wake`, `plugin-idle-manager`, and the changed
`chat-channels` test | `6e45a08573` | 30 passed |
| Runner `native-execution.test.ts` | `eab4dcc1f4` | 114 passed |
| The 19 server test files that changed since `eab4dcc1f4`, and
`typecheck-layers.test.mjs` | `259737b700` | 4,275 of 4,277 passed. The
2 failures are in `chat-channels` and are in the list of 7 below. |

The peak is the largest single process, from `/usr/bin/time -l`. Peaks
for the server typecheck were between 3.42 GiB and 3.56 GiB across 8
runs. Peaks for the test projects were 3.25 GiB and 3.37 GiB across 2
runs. I did not measure a cgroup.

**Runtime check of the fixes.** Types do not prove that a test still
works. So I ran all 309 changed server test files, 11,929 tests, before
the rebase onto paperclipai/paperclip#18737:

| Result | Tests | Detail |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Passed | 11,913 | Includes the 2 tests and the 54 `dot-runner` tests
that passed in a later run, as described below. |
| Failed | 7 | The same 7 tests also fail on the commit before the
fixes. |
| Skipped | 9 | These tests have their own skip conditions: `sentry` 5,
and 1 each in `bundled-plugin-registration`, `customer-success-cloud`,
`onepassword-connection`, and `workspace-runtime-https-live-exercise`. |

The 7 tests that fail with and without this change, on my machine:

- 3 tests in `chat-channels` and `email-channels` stop with `ENOENT` on
a `SKILL.md` file. The path is in the parent checkout, above the git
worktree that I used, so I expect that the worktree is the cause. I did
not prove this.
- `workspace-instance-cleanup` compares `/private/var/...` with
`/var/...`. This is a macOS symlink difference.
- 2 tests in `git-reproducible-managed-checkouts` get
`unknown_base_git_files` and expect `unpushed_managed_checkout`. I did
not find the cause.
- 1 more test in `chat-channels`, `materializes direct external-chat
finals once`, gets `undefined`. I did not find the cause.

CI is the check for these 7 tests. `ci / verify` passed on `eab4dcc1f4`.

Failures during this work:

- My fix to `agent-runtime-connector-access` changed an invalid
permission key in the setup, but not in the assertion. The runtime check
found this. I corrected the assertion, and the file passes.
- `heartbeat-plugin-environment` failed one wait in the full run. It
passed three times alone, so I think that load caused the failure. It
can fail again under load.
- `dot-runner` skipped all 54 tests in the full run because `cargo` was
not on my `PATH`. It then passed 54 of 54 with the toolchain on the
`PATH`.
- My first `lib` value removed the default DOM types, and the error
count went up by 375. I added the DOM libraries.
- My Daytona stub with bare `any` left 48 errors, because generic
helpers then inferred `unknown`. I added shapes that return promises.
- One fix to `agent-secrets-routes` used `class_3_static_lease`, and the
test failed. That class allows only specific paths. I reverted to
`unclassified`.
- `ci / General tests (server (8/12))` failed on `259737b700` because of
the flaky port in `idle-completed-history`. paperclipai/paperclip#18853
fixed this test on master, so this pull request keeps that fix.

**Audit of the diff.** I counted these patterns in added and removed
lines, to find fixes that only hide an error:

| Pattern | Added | Removed |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `@ts-ignore` | 0 | 0 |
| `@ts-expect-error` | 0 | 1 |
| `.skip` | 0 | 0 |
| `as any` | 9 | 9 |
| `: any` | 11 | 2 |
| `as never` | 8 | 2 |
| `as unknown as` | 35 | 4 |
| `Promise<unknown>` | 16 | 5 |
| `expect(` | 128 | 113 |

No hunk removes more `expect(` calls than it adds. Three removals of
test content were intentional, and I checked each one:

- `muse-control` removed `signalToken`. Line 1012 already asserts that
it is absent.
- `merged-pr-confirmation-sweep` removed legacy aliases. Other tests
cover them.
- `heartbeat-workspace-branch-containment` removed a `finalize` branch
that no test row can reach.

Some partial fixtures stay unchecked through `as unknown as` and
`Promise<unknown>`, mostly in `issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes`
and `issue-comment-reopen-routes`.

**Accuracy of the check.** One program over the tree and the three
shards reported the same errors at the same positions. Memory, as the
peak of the largest process on one thread, was 3.93 GiB for one program
and 2.43 GiB for the largest shard. I measured these two values before
the fixes.

Not run or not proven:

- I did not run the full `pnpm test:run`, or a root `pnpm build`. I
expect CI to run the full suites.
- I did not run the 4 GiB container check, or the full
`scripts/typecheck-low-memory.mjs`. The peaks above come from macOS, so
they are not a Linux cgroup measurement.
- I did not run the UI typecheck after the merges.
- `workspace-runtime-https-live-exercise` is skipped, so its `cleanup`
fix did not run.

## Risks

- **A large diff in test files.** 328 files change. A pull request that
edits the same tests can get merge conflicts. New tests on master can
also add type errors before this merges. Any such error fails this check
and needs a fix here.
- **A higher cost for changes to source types.** A change to a type can
add errors in test files that the author did not touch. The author must
then fix them. This is the purpose of the check, but it is new work.
- **Changed test behavior.** Some tests now run paths that they did not
run before, such as the 9 chat wizard fixtures and the 3 span tests.
They pass here, but they can be more sensitive to timing or to the
environment.
- **The Daytona stub can go stale.** The stub is written by hand. If the
plugin uses a new SDK member, the typecheck reports an error until
someone updates the stub.
- **The release path.** `release-verify.yml` and `scripts/release.sh`
run `pnpm -r typecheck`, so they now run this check.
- **The tsconfig change.** The test transform reads
`server/src/__tests__/tsconfig.json`. The options that I changed are for
type checks, and the runs above passed.
- **A gap that remains.** Tsconfigs in `packages/paperclip-runner` and
in most sandbox provider plugins exclude `*.test.ts`. This check does
not read most of those test files, so they can still drift. That work is
separate from this pull request.

DottaandPaperclip 8ff812cdde feat(chat): deliver proactive task messages to agent chats (#18374)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent Chat gives each person a persistent conversation with each
agent.
> - Tasks and routines produce results outside that conversation.
> - Those runs need a safe way to bring a requested result back to the
person.
> - The server must select the agent's own chat and check the source
task's access rules.
> - This pull request adds proactive chat messages and unread
indicators.
> - People can see the result, open its source task, and reply in the
same chat.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server, native runner tools, shared contracts, database, and UI.

**Problem or motivation**

An agent can report progress on a task or comment on an authorized task.
It cannot send a routine result to its own standing chat with the
responsible person. A morning review routine therefore cannot leave a
visible digest in that person's chat.

**Proposed solution**

Add `send_chat_message({body, idempotencyKey})` and `POST
/api/agents/me/chat/messages`. The server selects the company, agent,
and responsible person from the active run. It saves an attributed
comment and audit record in one transaction. The chat shows a
source-task link and per-person unread state.

**Alternatives considered**

A destination parameter on a generic comment tool would expose
unnecessary routing authority. A new delivery worker would add another
durable delivery path. This change uses a dedicated tool and the
existing comment and live-event paths.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the experimental Agent Chat capability in `ROADMAP.md`. The
existing `enableAgentChat` setting controls it. Related public work:
Refs #13282, Refs #13283, and Refs #14408. Searches for proactive chat
and unread chat found no duplicate PR.

## What Changed

- Add a focused messaging service shared by the native tool and HTTP
route. It checks current run ownership, execution mode, recipient
membership, task access, and task privacy.
- Reuse the canonical company/agent/person conversation. Save the
comment and audit record together. Keep task completion and chat
execution separate from delivery.
- Add source-task provenance and source-scoped retry keys. Identical
retries return the saved receipt. Changed content returns a conflict.
- Enforce the conversation's fixed agent at the shared comment-write
boundary. Keep normal reply cancellation and session checks.
- Add chat unread state, accessible agent dots, aggregate Chat
indicators, and visible-message read cutoffs. Refresh through existing
live events.
- Add the request-key constraint, native tool contracts, documentation,
capability maps, stories, and regression coverage.

## Verification

- Local delivery/security proof: all 38 proactive-message cases pass.
Eight credential-scope regressions and four quota regressions fail
against the prior source. The repaired delivery and canonical
cross-issue cap suites pass all 49 cases; all 31 OpenAPI tests, server
typecheck, and capability-map checks pass. The shared per-run cap covers
native and HTTP sends, mixed ordinary mutations, concurrent last-slot
contention, and retry/recovery without double charging.
- Credential tests preserve the authenticated person and authorizer;
reject bridge/test credentials and persisted skill-test runs after
task-mode changes; and recheck API-key revocation, scope, and
responsible person after destination locking. The earlier
delivery/native-authority suites passed all 74 cases before the four
quota additions.
- Four PostgreSQL contention cases cover native and HTTP sends plus
retries during a native chat mutation. All four deadlock against the
earlier source and pass with destination-before-source/run locking.
Recovery and human-reply delivery enqueue only the human comment; a
proactive digest never wakes the chat agent.
- Passed 108 companion conversation, native-authority, and OpenAPI
tests; 112 runner catalog/workflow-report tests; 47 completion-delivery
tests; and 25 project-handoff tests. Focused runner tests cover native
tool availability without generic API tools.
- All 327 affected UI tests, UI typecheck, token gates, and catalog
checks pass. The read hook retries at most three times, respects server
retry delay, coalesces only seen cutoffs, recovers on reconnect, and
cancels on scope changes.
- Real browser journeys with a deterministic process agent verify
routine-to-chat delivery, first-chat creation, unread state across
reload, the source link, secondary chat navigation, and a follow-up
reply referring to the digest. This does not qualify live GitHub
retrieval or model output quality.
- The Storybook showcase uses production components with deterministic
network fixtures. Rendered interactions pass for the landing, ordinary
read success, transient read recovery, and persistent failure after
bounded retries. Both Chat navigation variants update from two unread
chats to one while only Kodi's dot clears. Mobile and light variants
were reviewed. The existing Coordinator Recents label contrast finding
is unchanged; no Linux visual baseline archive exists.
- Current master's independent sandbox migration retains 0418.
Regenerated the feature migration as 0419 from the combined schema and
retained exactly the newest five snapshots; numbering/safety, replay,
and schema-drift checks pass.
- Workspace typecheck and build passed before PR preparation; canonical
server/UI typechecks passed again on the combined tree. Migration
`0419_slippery_impossible_man.sql` passes safety and schema drift checks
on disposable PostgreSQL, including interrupted index repair, concurrent
migrators, one-time owner read-state backfill, preserved receipts, and
two SQL replays. A default five-second local snapshot comparison timed
out; a diagnostic 30-second run passed without drift.
- Earlier failures are retained in the record: full local `pnpm
test:run` and broad shards encountered embedded-PostgreSQL startup,
timing, and provider-recovery failures. Thirteen selected
external-channel cases pass in isolation on the original and changed
sources; an unordered comment-row assertion now explicitly orders both
reads. The earlier route registry, native tool count, runner catalog,
and accessible Chat badge-name failures were fixed and passed full
remote CI on `920b3bb7db`.
- Repeated managed-skill server8 failures came from CI's newer synthetic
merge: its Cloud guard correctly rejected the old local-disk fixture.
Master independently repaired the fixture in #18385; this branch keeps
that repair unchanged. All 57 managed-skill and Cloud prerequisite cases
pass on the combined tree, and that fixture has no remaining PR diff.
- Current reviewed head `dc16f314739a6d977bed21cb1446d0e80a541578`:
Greptile 5/5 with no findings, Superagent security assessment passed,
advisory Paperclip Review 5/5 with no findings, and zero open review
threads. All 55 current-head check runs pass, with five expected skips
and the advisory review neutral at 5/5; Snyk also passes. No checks are
pending or failing. Protected squash auto-merge is enabled and is
waiting for required code-owner approval. A normal exact-head merge was
refused by the base-branch policy; no admin bypass was used. The
previous head's Superagent quota finding is fixed and covered above.

## Risks

- Chat remains company-visible. Delivery rejects a source task with
private-task, project, or ancestor restrictions.
- Read state uses a comment timestamp cutoff. The server retains
database precision and never moves a read receipt backward.
- The new unique constraint changes comment query planning. An existing
regression now uses an explicit row order. The migration builds the
unique index concurrently, then takes a brief table lock to attach it.
It uses the existing top-level migration and interrupted-index recovery
path.
- The upgrade backfills missing chat-owner read-state rows at the latest
existing agent comment. Existing read receipts remain intact. New chats
can still be unread before the human participates.
- Quota observation commits atomically with delivery. A rejected send
rolls back its attempted denial audit row and any first-chat creation;
the canonical warning remains in server logs, and previously spent quota
remains enforced. Identical/conflicting retries and receipt recovery
spend no extra slot.
- This version delivers in-app only. It adds no external-channel, push,
or email delivery.
- Local full-suite acceptance remains limited by the failures recorded
above. The feature stays behind `enableAgentChat`.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex. PR preparation and CI work used `gpt-6.1-sol` with tool
use and code execution. The earlier implementation also used Codex, but
its exact model ID was not recorded in the visible session. The
context-window size was not provided.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

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

**Expected behavior**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 1b48e73e0b feat(ui): add secondary navigation for agent chat (#14706)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent Chat already provides a persistent conversation with each
agent.
> - Its shortcuts share the primary navigation and do not give chats a
dedicated place.
> - People need to find agents, start a chat, and switch conversations
without moving the page layout.
> - This pull request adds a secondary chat sidebar and a landing page
around the existing chat surface.
> - The same conversation, composer, history, and context panel remain
in use.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13283 and #13420. This extends the existing experimental Agent
Chat navigation after review of the component and page stories. It
supports the CEO Chat roadmap item through the existing task-backed
conversation model.

**Subsystem affected**

The board UI and the company-scoped conversation list API.

**Current behavior**

Chat shortcuts sit inside the primary navigation. There is no dedicated
landing page with a searchable conversation list. A separate landing
header also moves the sidebar when an agent is selected.

**Proposed behavior**

Show a Chat entry in primary navigation. Keep a searchable agent sidebar
beside the chat content. The plus button starts or reopens the current
user's single conversation with that agent. Keep the header and sidebar
in the same positions before and after selection.

**Reason and benefit**

People can find agents and return to persistent conversations without
leaving the chat area or creating duplicate chats.

**Breaking changes**

The experimental chat navigation changes. Explicitly adding a chat now
resolves its conversation immediately. Direct visits to unused agent
chat URLs remain read-only. The existing per-agent routes and message
contracts remain compatible. No database migration is required.

## What Changed

- Add an account- and company-scoped conversation list endpoint with the
existing access checks, feature gate, and OpenAPI entry.
- Add the live secondary sidebar, landing page, avatars, search, loading
states, errors, and retry controls.
- Make the agent picker wait for chat creation and display failures.
Existing agents reopen the same conversation. A dismissed selection
cannot close a reopened picker or navigate over a newer choice.
- Preserve recent-activity ordering and terminated agents’ chat history.
Scope live list refreshes to the current user’s conversation events. A
failed historical-agent lookup leaves healthy chats usable and offers a
focused retry.
- Keep the sidebar and header stable across chat routes. Keep mobile
selection in the navigation drawer.
- Use the production components in Storybook. Prepare the theme and
mobile viewport before mounting the page to avoid the startup flash.
- Update product documentation, the design guide, and navigation tests.
Replace old browser expectations for stars and recent shortcuts with
persistent conversation and layout coverage.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `pnpm check:token-gates` pass
after rebasing onto master.
- Focused UI tests pass, including 105 sidebar, picker, and live-update
checks after review fixes. The 33 conversation service and route tests
and 10 OpenAPI checks pass, including ownership, feature gating, and
concurrent creation.
- The full local test run passed 14,163 server tests before three
environment or timeout failures. The embedded Postgres startup,
connector socket, and native runner failures all passed direct reruns.
- Browser test-drive verification covers a real provider reply, add and
reopen, persisted history after reload, no-match search recovery, mobile
drawer dismissal, and top-aligned context panels.
- Browser measurements confirm that the sidebar has the same position
and dimensions on the landing page and an agent conversation.
- Storybook builds and its add-and-reopen interaction passes.
- The revised browser regression passes locally against a freshly built
throwaway instance. It covers stable sidebar geometry, add/reopen
uniqueness, drafts, search, history, and terminated-agent history after
reload. The full CI browser suite also passes.
- Latest commit `b323577d9523180104df4000eaceedea2772608c`: all 54
completed checks pass, including the complete server/workspace/browser
suites, aggregate verification, build/typecheck, security scans, and
canary packaging. The two Storybook jobs are skipped by their workflow
conditions. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36714052050).
- Greptile reviewed this same commit at 5/5 with no remaining actionable
findings; all review threads are resolved.
- Reviewer path: enable Agent Chat, click Chat, use plus to choose an
agent, send a message, switch away, and reopen that agent. One
conversation must remain, with its history intact.

## Risks

- The new sidebar lists persistent conversations instead of starred and
recent shortcuts.
- Chat creation is asynchronous. Errors stay visible in the picker, and
delayed responses cannot navigate into a previous company or account.
- The shell adjustment is limited to chat routes and preserves the
existing conversation implementation.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, code execution, and browser
tools. The session does not expose the exact API model ID or
context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip ab15aff390 feat: add experimental persistent agent chat (#13284)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Conversations must use the same tasks, controls, and execution
history.
> - Users need an ongoing chat with an agent without managing task
properties.
> - Agents should clarify and plan work, then hand execution to assigned
project tasks.
> - This pull request combines the reviewed Agent Chat stack for one
squash merge.
> - The benefit is persistent conversation with normal task governance
and shared UI.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Task lifecycle, agent runtime tools, shared task UI, and browser/paid
runner tests.

**Problem or motivation**

Users need one persistent conversation with each agent. A separate chat
store or renderer would duplicate task behavior and bypass existing
controls.

**Proposed solution**

Use a task-backed chat per company, user, and agent. Reuse the task
composer and transcript. Clarify and plan in chat, then create assigned
project tasks with the relevant plan. Keep Agent Chat behind its own
disabled-by-default experimental setting.

**Roadmap alignment**

This implements the task-backed direction in [CEO
Chat](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/master/ROADMAP.md#-ceo-chat).
Related proposals: #2504 and #9693. Related request: #7981. The
maintainer requested one squash merge of the complete stack.

Consolidates the reviewed runtime
[#13281](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/13281), backend
[#13282](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/13282), and UI
[#13283](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/13283) layers
with this PR's E2E coverage. All four layers passed CI and received
Greptile 5/5 before consolidation. This PR targets master and includes
the complete feature.

## What Changed

- Add personal canonical chat tasks with ordinary company visibility,
immutable identity, idempotent first sends, and an idle waiting state.
- Process `/new` in queue order. Preserve history, release a chat pause,
and fence old provider context and delayed writes.
- Keep chat lifecycle rules across recovery, finalization, assignment,
task lists, and rollups.
- Support research and plan revision in chat. Hand plans to ordinary
assigned project tasks before execution starts. Reject new chat
subtasks.
- Add repository-aware project creation and discovery tools, including
multiple repository IDs and GitHub URLs, authorization, idempotency, and
durable project-created cards.
- Reuse task UI components for chat, with starred/recent agent
navigation and a separate `enableAgentChat` experimental flag.
- Add deterministic browser tests and 24 paid chat cells across four
Codex/Claude profiles, with validated reports and screenshots.
- Integrate current master recovery, controller lease, queued-message,
and task UI changes. Gate chat interruption and deferred promotion on
ownership/feature policy. Guarantee lease renewal and active controls
are stopped even if teardown fails.
- Preserve master's migration 0273 and generate chat migration 0274 with
idempotent replay for development databases.

## Verification

- Prior exact heads of all four PRs passed Linux CI, including build,
typecheck, general/serialized tests, and browser E2E. Each had Greptile
5/5 and no unresolved findings.
- Integrated local verification passed: full repository typecheck and
production build, Storybook build, token gates, 340 focused UI tests,
all 20 deterministic chat browser tests, two migration replay tests, 88
focused chat/queue/native/controller tests, and provider/session
regressions including real lease expiry. These include the three
lifecycle regressions for the final admission/teardown fixes; server
typecheck also passes. Current head
`1268eda16cc2af892055917e7292f068820be135` has Greptile 5/5 with no
unresolved findings and passing security scans. All final-head CI gates
passed: build, full Runner verification, typecheck/release registry,
canary, all general/serialized test shards, and all browser E2E shards
([CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34696739927)).
Local PostgreSQL startup contention required serialized retries; skipped
fixtures do not count as passing coverage.
- The earlier paid campaign passed all 24 chat cells and retained 32
screenshots:
[report](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-34648511170-1/index.html?report=agent-chat#suite-agent-chat).
It tested `abacbdfd2f660709ec37312cdb758284c8399d04`; it is prior
evidence, not a paid run of this integrated head.
- Manual check: enable Agent Chat in Experimental settings, open an
agent, clarify and revise a plan, then hand off to an assigned project
task. Stop a reply, send `/new`, and verify fresh context with retained
history. Disable the setting and verify agent shortcuts/new chat turns
are blocked.

## Risks

- Queue/session integration can affect retries and delayed writes. Tests
cover ownership, cancellation, reset boundaries, idle recovery, and
ordinary task behavior.
- Migration 0274 adds conversation fields and constraints. Replay is
idempotent and preserves existing development chat history.
- This combines the previously reviewed stack at the maintainer's
request. Agent Chat remains off by default and is separate from
Conference Room.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 Astra (`gpt-6-astra`), with reasoning, code
execution, browser tools, and parallel review. The exact context-window
size is not exposed in this session. Codex and Claude also ran as test
subjects in the linked paid campaign.
