DottaandPaperclip 0e15c92073 feat(skills): make managed content independent of web-server disk (#18334)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use installed skills and exact version pins during execution.
> - Managed skills still depended on mutable directories on the web
server.
> - A replacement server could lose acknowledged edits or remove an
unassigned skill whose directory was absent.
> - This pull request makes immutable versions the authority for managed
content and installed repository reads.
> - The server can rebuild delivery files from durable content after
replacement.
> - This establishes skills readiness for ephemeral web servers. General
server draining and workspace recovery remain separate work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Skills services, shared contracts, database receipts, Skill Studio, and
runtime delivery.

**Problem or motivation**

A fresh web server must discover, read, edit, and deliver protected
installed skills using the same database, object storage, secrets, and
supported application artifacts. It must not need its predecessor's
files or process memory.

**Proposed solution**

Use `managed` ownership with a null source locator. Read installed
content by immutable version. Prepare packages before a short
publication transaction. Persist execution selections before
materialization. Recover exact pinned runtime assets and reject deletion
while active or recovering pins exist.

**Alternatives considered**

Reconstructing a mutable installed directory preserves the old
source-of-truth ambiguity. Permanent dual writes create two competing
authorities. This change uses one managed model after a bounded legacy
conversion.

**Roadmap alignment**

This improves the existing Skills Manager, Studio, version history, and
Cloud execution capabilities. The maintainer supplied the implementation
contract. This does not add a separate skills product or deploy fleet
changes.

Related work: #18082 supplies immutable package storage. #17273
addresses edits outside the API for linked local skills; this PR keeps
that source category separate. #2648 is a closed earlier
ephemeral-filesystem proposal.

## What Changed

- Add managed ownership and focused content publication and execution
materialization modules. Keep the archive format and package storage
tables.
- Publish managed create, save, delete, fork, rename, restore, and
catalog content with version checks. Add durable create receipts.
Preserve file-save receipt responses.
- Return file version identities. Keep Studio drafts after a conflict
and provide an explicit reload action. A delayed reload cannot overwrite
newer typing or navigation.
- Persist exact runtime selections, including empty selections. Rebuild
pinned assets and verify their admitted digests on a replacement server.
- Preserve source access on forks and disconnected copies. Keep the
existing workspace policy category for managed skills.
- Add bounded conversion, eligibility, and independent verification
phases. Load persisted Cloud configuration in the standalone CLI without
seeding or changing it. Reject partial current versions against
installed inventories; recover only complete saved content or the exact
source. Document storage migration blockers and the compatible rollback
floor.
- Add separate-process PostgreSQL/S3 qualification and update domain,
retention, policy, and UI regressions.
- Pass the plugin worker manager into Studio execution, admit restricted
`skill_test` mode through native Runner contracts, and preserve admitted
scope across native and REST tools. Native tests cannot create ordinary
tasks, browse company data, or use external tools.
- Select the exact durable Studio revision even when unassigned or Beta
skills is off. Persist Studio output and audit atomically with native
task completion, preserving the result on replay.

## Verification

- Final revision `13e8af480b88ba6fea5737bac4bd81104d604792` passed full
CI: all 49 workflow jobs completed successfully ([run
41127396098](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41127396098)).
This includes typecheck, test suites, Runner checks, browser checks and
build. Greptile review 15 is 5/5 on that same revision, with zero
unresolved threads. The PR is ready for review.
- Local workspace typecheck and build passed after integrating master.
Focused checks passed: 33 execution/completion cases, 52 Runner HTTP
cases, 16 managed-content cases, 17 Studio cases, the new real-process
CLI regression, map checks and UI token gates. The CLI regression proves
inspection does not seed missing Cloud configuration. Server typecheck
passed after that fix.
- The independent-process PostgreSQL/S3 matrix passed through normal
HTTP skill routes. It covers A → B → C replacement, lost commit
responses, upload crashes, concurrent saves, binary contents and
executable delivery. Metadata listing and warm selected delivery retain
zero object downloads. Local timing measurements are recorded; they do
not establish hosted latency.
- Hosted A → B → C passed on the owned disposable test tenant with
external Postgres, S3 and a real remote Paperclip Computer. Predecessor
temporary homes were absent. C read and executed B's acknowledged
managed save. New runs used repository v1 while v2 was installed. Hashes
matched an independently checked exact upstream commit.
- Compatible image rollback to `6518b323` passed. Studio retained the
unassigned fork's C save. A fresh remote run executed the newer managed
content and historical repository pin. The actual shell event confirmed
expected hashes, stdout, exit 0 and mode 0555.
- Runtime candidate `9200e3fcb4` deployed successfully ([Cloud run
41124147876](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/actions/runs/41124147876)).
The final Studio test delivered only the unassigned fork's exact v3,
executed its script and persisted a successful output snapshot.
Independent command-event inspection confirmed all three hashes, stdout,
exit 0 and mode 0555. All 14 installations were version-backed.
Independent verification checked all 25 versions: 23 remote objects, two
bundled database snapshots, zero blockers.
- The deployed image is `9200e3fcb4`. Later master integration, the
client-only delayed-reload draft guard and the CLI bootstrap have
separate automated proof. The CLI bootstrap was also exercised against
the tenant's stored configuration and storage through the same read-only
services. This PR does not claim that the deployed image is the final PR
revision.
- Live Studio checks exposed worker wiring, admission, access scope,
exact selection and completion-publication gaps. They are fixed. Failed
attempts remain in the evidence. The full local suite exceeded 80
minutes under host contention and was stopped. Later combined/isolated
local attempts also timed out; they are not counted as passes. Full CI
covers the integrated suites. Earlier CI found an obsolete restart-scope
fixture, which was corrected and passed all 52 HTTP cases.
- Reproduction and migration:
[`doc/skill-ephemeral-web-servers.md`](doc/skill-ephemeral-web-servers.md).
Source revisions, deployments, versions, run IDs, hashes and failure
history:
[`doc/plans/2026-10-30-ephemeral-web-skills.md`](doc/plans/2026-10-30-ephemeral-web-skills.md).

## Risks

- Legacy conversion requires stopped admission and retired
filesystem-authoritative writers. Pre-conversion binaries are not
supported rollback targets afterward.
- Cloud readiness requires remote object storage. Local provider
receipts and provider mismatches remain blockers until objects are
copied and verified.
- Linked local sources retain filesystem semantics and are outside the
cloud guarantee.
- Cold reads still fetch the existing archive format. Warm runtime
preparation retains the verified-cache path.
- Bundled reconciliation preserves an installed head. Existing release
snapshots remain selectable. An older server must not replace a newer
head with its shipped files.
- No production volumes, fleet defaults, or general deployment
coordination change in this PR.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser use. The exact backend model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session. No subagents were
used.

DottaandPaperclip f1911a4c53 perf(skills): move repository packages out of Postgres (#18082)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/205/changes/paperclip/205
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents receive selected company skills before each turn.
> - Imported skills can need files from the whole source repository.
> - The current path stores those files in Postgres and reads large JSON
payloads during preparation.
> - This pull request stores verified packages in the configured file or
object store and keeps preparation queries small.
> - It also converts old rows automatically and restores missing files
from the exact saved commit.
> - The result reduces database traffic while preserving skill versions
and repository dependencies.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Company skill import, version storage, and preparation before agent
turns.

**Current behavior**

Repository snapshot bodies live in JSONB. Skill preparation can read
those bodies again even when the files already exist on disk. Historical
packages and native assets also need a bounded cleanup path.

**Proposed behavior**

Store package archives and manifests through the existing storage
service. Keep version identities, receipts, hashes, and recovery
metadata in Postgres. Convert legacy rows after the stored package
passes read-back verification. A missing package can use legacy bytes or
its exact Git commit under current repository authorization. No separate
data-migration command is required.

**Reason and benefit**

The warm path sends no repository bodies through SQL and reads no object
bytes. Cleanup runs through the existing deadline coordinator. Current
versions, active runs, explicit pins, and authored content retain their
protection.

**Breaking changes**

The normal application schema upgrade is required. Single-version and
skill-file responses keep their existing shape. Version lists,
current-version summaries, and test-run version summaries now contain
file names and kinds without file bodies. Diff and restore fetch
selected versions through the existing single-version endpoint. Older
server builds must not write after conversion unless they support the
new package format. The storage override and rollback limits are
documented in `doc/skill-package-storage.md`.

**Additional context**

Related work: #15731 preserves repository dependencies; #17923 changes
version-cache scheduling; #18080 changes delivery to remote Codex homes.
This change owns package persistence, acquisition, and expiry. It does
not replace those delivery or scheduler changes.

## What Changed

- Add company-scoped archive receipts, exact-commit recovery recipes,
migration deadlines, and a durable object-deletion queue.
- Add bounded archive upload, read-back verification, extraction,
concurrent request coalescing, and verified local caches.
- Convert old snapshots and versions automatically. Keep legacy bytes
when verification fails.
- Recover missing files through current source authorization and the
original commit. Validate repository identity, file hashes, modes, and
the aggregate hash.
- Expire unused recoverable Git packages and native assets after 30
days. Preserve active pins and the durable copy of authored or unproven
content.
- Keep warm preparation queries metadata-only. Bound file digest caches
and avoid repeated body hashing when file identities are unchanged.
- Extend the existing storage contract with cancellation. Register
package work with the existing coordinator. Optional conversion retries
retain the original bytes and may wait for ingress without blocking
sleep.
- Add regression tests, operating guidance, a deep trace, benchmark
receipts, and an optional maintenance command.

## Verification

### Final master integration and review repair — October 29, 2026

Current head: `a6065424249e763dfeac37161f1b52a9f25bd9b7`. Commit
`f8bbdd3dbd` resolves the conflicts with master `76a796e964`; the final
two commits repair the Apex deletion findings below.

- Keep both package-maintenance and version-retention notifications in
their write transactions.
- Keep the shared run-pin predicate and master's controller-lease
deadline metadata. Package expiry reads the updated protected-version
result.
- Preserve every master migration entry. Generate migration **0415
(`0415_zippy_zemo.sql`)** after master's 0414. Its skill SQL is
byte-for-byte unchanged from the previously tested idempotent migration.
Retain only the five newest schema snapshots. Migration numbering and
safety checks pass.
- Repair failed file/folder deletion: preserve a complete temporary
subtree until transaction commit, restore on upload or SQL failure, and
restore callback failures before releasing the mutation lock. Both
PostgreSQL regressions reproduced missing files before the fix and now
pass. They cover binary data, executable permissions, empty folders,
unlisted files, unchanged database/version rows, successful retry after
upload-claim expiry, and historical reads.
- Reconcile lost commit replies under the same advisory and row locks.
Check the saved version and source identity before restoring. Keep
committed deletions intact and preserve backups when the database
outcome is unknown or a newer edit exists. Four real-PostgreSQL outcome
tests pass; the prior code failed three of them.
- Full workspace typecheck and production build pass on the final
commit. All **204** focused PostgreSQL package/cache/retention/authoring
and filesystem-boundary tests pass, with none skipped.
- Apex review **18 passes 5/5**, with zero new comments on the exact
final head. All **34** review conversations are resolved.
- [Final-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40914116508)
completes successfully on attempt 2. The head has **55 successful
checks**, two neutral reports, two skipped checks, and a successful Snyk
status. No checks are pending or failing. All eight browser shards pass.
- Runner Vitest 2/2 timed out once in the unchanged ACPX
controller-replacement fixture. The same job passed on the preceding
commit. One unchanged CI retry passes all five ACPX recovery cases,
**2,253** Runner package cases and **126** native server integration
cases; their standard one and five skips remain. The initial timeout's
root cause is not established. Local diagnosis also hit the fixture's
eight-second session.open timeout with an authenticated Runner; no local
Runner pass is claimed.
- Both full local `pnpm test:run` attempts were stopped when Apex
identified deletion defects and source repair became necessary; neither
is claimed as a passing full local run. The final **204** focused tests,
full workspace typecheck, and production build pass. Full-suite
acceptance uses the final-head CI jobs. The superseded merge-head CI
included runners terminated by shutdown signals; each source repair
started a new full run.

- Auto-merge is enabled for squash merge. The final head is
conflict-free and all checks pass. GitHub's active master ruleset still
requires a code-owner approval for the dependency files. The existing
review requests are with `devinfoley`, `nickyleach`, and `forgottendev`;
no policy bypass was used.
- The earlier hosted stress and full native receipts below remain tied
to `a2e597d800`; they are not relabeled as a deployment of this final
integration. The earlier local PostgreSQL startup failure remains
recorded below; PostgreSQL ran successfully for this integration
verification.

### Full native skill execution — October 29, 2026

The full native-agent acceptance gap is closed on candidate
`a2e597d800eb989d565780e7aa947d5368676444`. Two qualifying native turns
used OpenAI API / `gpt-5.4-mini` in real Daytona sandboxes, on the same
disposable hosted TEST tenant as the stress test. A follow-up on the
same task consumed a newly saved skill version.

The task text asked for the assigned skill workflow. It did not contain
the proof nonce or expected receipt. The assigned authored skill
contained a Python verifier and a random package-local nonce. The agent
read the actual installed skill files and executed that verifier against
the imported, automatically converted 1,360-file repository package. It
checked the repository file count and reference/binary bytes, and
directly executed the repository's executable probe. Independent
verification matched the emitted JSON to the nonce and expected byte
hashes. The agent persisted the same receipt as its task response;
native finalization committed, workspace finalization succeeded, and
task state became Done.

| Qualifying turn | End-to-end run time | Recorded skills.prepare |
Repository files | Binary hex | Shell receipt SHA-256 |
|---|---:|---:|---:|---|---|
| Initial task | 47.881 s | 1822 ms | 1360 | `00ff07800a` |
`a1deb30dc095f2306c7aa9cc5ec396da12c68961cf5b809f4d7c20f7fc68493b` |
| Corrected follow-up, new nonce/version | 37.974 s | 377 ms | 1360 |
`00ff07800a` |
`dbcdc33fa1376b4edc136feae1cdf770560a73292467e93619efdda20e4282a7` |

Both successful shell receipts reported `probe: STRESS18082` and
`assetSha256:
e8ea7a2f15f7bb3b332a46adbef848465884c8996595aa234748befd544d1f3a`. Their
proof nonces, selected version IDs and receipt hashes differed, and both
ran on the same task. These are observed timings, not latency SLOs; they
include real provider work. The service stress-test timings remain a
separate measurement boundary.

Earlier failures remain in the evidence:

- The original five-minute Daytona allocation timeout never reached
model execution. After normal owned-stack restore, its durable cleanup
record was `expired` / `success`. The cause of that original allocation
timeout remains unknown; a later success establishes recovery only.
- Initial continuation setup used unsupported generic agent-update
fields and returned HTTP 409 before dispatch. Setup was corrected to use
the supported skill-assignment and versioned instruction commands.
- The intervening completed native turn read repository bytes and ran
the probe, but omitted the verifier JSON under the older test agent's
overly-specific instruction file. Its strict receipt validator failed;
it is not counted as a qualifying turn. Correcting the test agent's
instruction file and sending an explicit task-scoped wake produced the
qualifying follow-up above.
- The pinned application's immutable rate card omits `gpt-5.4-mini`, so
completed usage triggered the normal block-on-unpriced budget policy.
Supported append-only accounting corrections estimated the three
completed runs using the [official OpenAI model rate
card](https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/models/gpt-5.4-mini): $0.75
input, $0.075 cached input, $4.50 output per million tokens, assuming
standard processing. Estimates totaled 12.482655 cents. Original usage
and missing-price records are preserved; the $1 hard stop and
unpriced-usage guard stayed active.
- Model shell attempts included a missing `xxd` command and incorrect
guessed file paths. Those failed calls and subsequent successful actual
verifier calls remain visible in complete event streams. No
zero-tool-error claim is made.

No product source changed during this continuation. The previously
measured contention, cold-start and memory limits remain. The later
merge resolution is covered by the separate integration checks above;
these hosted receipts qualify their recorded candidate.


### Hosted stress test — October 29, 2026

**Hosted acceptance:** full native-agent execution and a changed-skill
follow-up pass on the recorded hosted candidate. The final integration
section above records the subsequent conflict resolution and its
separate checks.

Tested baseline `929e840595c8933ca485ac7a2e99413e1e11ca64` and this
exact candidate sequentially on one disposable TEST tenant, with
external Neon PostgreSQL and actual S3. The fixture contained **1,360
files / 22.4 MB / ten skills sharing one repository**. Measurements
cover deployed skill-preparation and native-context services in an
adjacent diagnostic process, not a complete agent turn. The container
had **24 vCPU / 24 GB**.

| Warm workload | Median before → after | p95 before → after | DB
returned value bytes/preparation before → after |
|---|---:|---:|---:|
| One skill, serial | 1,060 → 125 ms | 1,303 → 155 ms | 22,610,389 →
1,771 |
| One skill, four concurrent | 4,415 → 297 ms | 5,143 → 328 ms |
22,610,389 → 1,771 |
| Ten skills, serial | 5,723 → 535 ms | 6,057 → 600 ms | 224,739,030 →
10,671 |
| Ten skills, four concurrent | 24,410 → 1,986 ms | 24,833 → 2,221 ms |
224,739,030 → 10,671 |

- Candidate warm preparation performed **zero S3 GETs**. Ordinary-pool
queries fell from 16 to 9 for one skill and 61 to 9 for ten, excluding
dedicated lock connections. DB numbers measure returned values before
Drizzle decoding, not wire bytes. Baseline/candidate sample counts were
30/100, 32/100, 5/50 and 8/48 respectively; the small baseline ten-skill
samples are comparative evidence, not SLO estimates.
- **Application-UID soak:** 800 ten-skill preparations over 10.3
minutes, four workers paced by 2.5 seconds; **zero failures**, median
**559 ms**, p95 **775 ms**, p99 **910 ms**, zero warm S3 reads. All 726
accompanying health/company-list requests returned HTTP 200. Their
end-to-end p95 was 569/502 ms, including network latency. The probe
overlaps most of the soak. Soak DB-response capture was limited to its
first 60 seconds.
- **Important remaining costs:** an unpaced 16-way ten-skill burst had
p95 **8.32 seconds** because company-level preparation serializes. Cold
preparation took approximately **1.1–2.5 seconds** for one skill and
**7.4–10.0 seconds** for ten. Ten-skill diagnostic RSS remained about
**1.17 GiB** (baseline 1.18 GiB), and the soak peaked at **1.35 GiB**. A
concurrent whole-container sample was 3.45 GB. This does not establish
suitability for a small-memory host or eliminate per-entrypoint native
asset duplication.
- **Upgrade without a manual data migration passed:** legacy snapshot
JSON shrank from 22,465,691 bytes to `[]`, with a stored package and
zero pending conversions.
- **Recovery passed:** sixteen concurrent cold requests coalesced into
two S3 GETs; full bytes/binary/executable modes matched; same-size
corruption repaired; an injected storage failure preserved warm access
and failed cold access safely. A disabled public-Git source denied
recovery, and after the actual five-minute backoff its exact SHA
reconstructed all 229 files. Cross-company descriptor access was denied.
Private-Git credential revocation was not tested.
- **Retention passed:** reclaimed 27,754,496 allocated cache bytes,
deleted an unreferenced package row and both objects, preserved aged
authored history, and expired/reacquired reconstructible Git content. A
version pinned by the failed native run was correctly retained. Only
owned fixture timestamps were aged.
- **Browser UI passed:** authored skill creation, saved edit surviving
reload, version history, and restoration of earlier content.
- **Initial native attempt (superseded by the qualifying turns above):**
one real run failed at Daytona allocation after five minutes
(`setup_failed`), before any model execution. Provider cleanup also
reported failure. That attempt does not count as a passing native turn.
Its receipt and all evidence remain preserved; its cleanup later
recorded success after normal restoration.
- Initial A/B commands ran as SSH root. Diagnostic-owned lock/cache
permissions caused one setup HTTP 500 and the first UID-1000 soak to
fail; exact fixture paths were repaired. The final soak, retention and
recovery ran as application UID 1000. A fresh UID-1000 one-skill batch
also passed (30 samples, median 116 ms, p95 321 ms, 1,771 DB value
bytes/preparation). Earlier harness-export, SSH, npm provenance, backoff
and UI-wait failures remain recorded alongside their successful retries.
- Private evidence includes raw timings, assertions, HTTP probes,
screenshots and failure/cleanup receipts. Initial failed-campaign
cleanup suspended and retained the owned TEST tenant and released the
shared QA account lease at **15:22:41 UTC**. The tenant was subsequently
resumed under its existing ownership for the native execution
qualification above. Final cleanup completed at **15:53:09 UTC**: the
account lease is released and the tenant is suspended/retained under the
original October 30, 12:24:52 UTC retention deadline. Its separate stack
lease remains held; no active or pending-cleanup environment lease
remained. The original retention window is deliberately preserved even
after successful continuation.

- Earlier hosted-tested head:
`a2e597d800eb989d565780e7aa947d5368676444`, integrated with master
`929e840595`. The earlier merge conflicts were resolved at this head.
[Current-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40884087629)
passed; all checks are complete with 55 successes, two neutral reports,
two skips, and no failures. [Apex review
15](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/18082#issuecomment-6480257258)
passed 5/5 with zero findings on this exact head. All review
conversations are resolved.
- Ten real-filesystem boundary cases and server typecheck pass locally
for the security fix. Coverage includes cache roots, descendants,
individual files, symlink aliases, recursive ancestors, a future
concurrent cache fill, and allowed sibling directories. [Current-head
private-project integration
tests](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40884087629/job/123483306405)
passed all 29 cases, including authorized and unauthorized imports of a
cached private package. Full typecheck, build, server suites, all eight
browser shards, and Runner checks passed in current-head CI. Local
database tests could not run because PostgreSQL could not initialize;
this limitation is recorded below.
- The earlier generated migration preserved the newest five snapshots.
The final integration renumbers its unchanged SQL to 0415. Migration
safety/numbering checks pass. Its SQL is byte-for-byte identical to the
previously verified idempotent skill migration; repeated application on
this latest schema was blocked by the same local database startup
failure.
- The broader verification before the final migration-only rebase passed
1,025 package, lifecycle, remote-launch, native-session, and
asset-retention tests, 52 focused UI tests, full workspace
typecheck/build, token gates, and map checks. The linked complete CI run
passed before the latest focused fixes.
- A disposable MinIO instance passed multipart upload, verified
read-back, and cold restoration of an 18 MB archive.
- Twenty warm samples with a synthetic 1,349-file, 22.8 MB repository
retained five metadata queries and zero object reads. Median preparation
was 256 ms for one selected skill and 691 ms for ten, with 5 ms emulated
network delay each way. These are local measurements, not production
latency guarantees.
- No production instance was changed. Earlier verification failures and
their disposition are retained below.

<details>
<summary>Earlier failures, review findings, fixes, and rerun
evidence</summary>

- The first CI pass found a stale inventory-span expectation and a
missing repository-read span. Both are fixed; all three observability
tests pass. One browser test copied page text into its YAML parser after
reload; its first unchanged-head retry passed, but the race recurred
after rebasing. The test now waits for the renamed URL and completed
reload before copying the editor, retaining its original assertions. The
earlier full local suite did not complete cleanly: it reported setup
timeouts and assertions, while isolated relevant reruns passed. The
complete current-head CI run closes that broad verification gap. No
production instance was changed.

- The first Apex review scored 2/5 and identified six issues. The fixes
protect authored history even when it shares an in-flight Git upload,
recheck upload expiry during orphan deletion, bound failed-upload
cleanup, retain per-version kind/encoding metadata, add sanitized
failure diagnostics, and correct the migration guide. The final focused
run passes all 140 tests; the preceding eight-file run passed all 149
tests, including local storage and S3 diagnostics. Server typecheck and
migration safety/numbering checks pass after the fixes. The second Apex
review scored 1/5 and found unbounded maintenance storage calls and
mismatched package/Git batch limits. Those are fixed with a 30-second
cancellable cleanup deadline, shared 100 MiB/10,000-file scanner and
storage limits, and bounded Git read batches. The proposed manual
lockfile edit was rejected with evidence of the enforced CI-owned
lockfile policy. All 19 storage/recovery unit tests and server
typechecking pass. The new database-backed cleanup/conversion tests were
locally skipped because the host exhausted its PostgreSQL semaphore
capacity (confirmed directly by initdb). That gap is closed by
current-head CI: [package-store
tests](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40771320775/job/123109300889)
pass all 18 cases and [package-worker
tests](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40771320775/job/123109301157)
pass all 7, with no skips in either suite. The corrected YAML browser
shard passes. A separate planning-fixture test failed its cleanup DELETE
with an activity-log foreign key violation after its behavior assertions
passed; its one unchanged-head retry passed. The third Apex review
scored 1/5 and identified a one-slot pool deadlock, projected path
limits, cleanup holding the preparation lock during archive reads, and a
publication/expiry race. These are fixed with transaction-local reads,
prefix-aware bounds, isolated verification, and shared package row locks
with a publication grace. The separate Paperclip review also found stale
historical inspection, eager history downloads, and conversion retries
blocking sleep. Those are fixed. Local PostgreSQL capacity recovered:
the new database regressions ran, including the one-slot fork, paused
storage during a warm turn, and a locked publication during expiry. The
expanded run passed 144/145 tests; its remaining assertion still
expected file bodies from the version list and was updated to fetch the
selected version. The corrected company-skill suite passes all 81 tests,
and the final package/projection run passes all 27. All 52 focused UI
tests pass after updating their query-provider fixtures; the first UI
run exposed a fixture remount, and the follow-up exposed an editing
syntax error, both corrected. Full workspace typecheck and build, token
gates, and map checks pass. The sandbox initially blocked the build
tool’s local IPC socket; the authorized build rerun passed. Master then
claimed migration 0401. The branch is rebased on f8226b0515, the
unchanged SQL is regenerated as 0402, and repeated application passed
twice on the combined schema. Post-rebase workspace typecheck passes.
All 1,025 package, lifecycle, remote-launch, native-session, and
asset-retention tests pass on the combined head. All CI checks passed
for head 9d80a3b52d. The fourth Apex review scored 3/5 and found a
save/edit lock-order cycle, a retry retaining an uncommitted source ID
in its recovery recipe, and a summary read racing conversion. Commit
b7d9237c6a fixes all three. The new concurrency and retry tests pass
within all 61 package/source tests, and server typecheck passes. Master
then claimed migration 0402. The branch is now rebased on 65fa1cd617 and
the unchanged SQL is regenerated as 0403. All 68 package, source, and
worker regressions, server typecheck, migration safety/numbering, and
repeated migration application pass on current head 62553671a0.
Subsequent verification and review outcomes are recorded below.


- The fifth Apex review scored 4/5 and found cached version reads
unnecessarily depending on object storage and conversion reads missing
the coordinator cancellation signal. Commit 1eb90d80be fixes both:
cached reads verify bytes without the preparation lock; manifest and
archive reads carry cancellation through conversion. The first focused
run passed 70/71 tests, including all three new cases, but the existing
diagnostic test observed no warning. Its fixture now sets an explicitly
expired migration deadline; the final worker suite passes all nine
cases. Server typecheck passes.


- The sixth Apex review scored 4/5 with one finding: concurrent cached
inventories were unbounded. Commit 4b7589e14c gives cached inventories
and previews a two-reader/32-waiter limit independent of cold storage.
The first expanded pressure test observed a third reader before the
preview path had the same bound; both paths now share the local limit.
All 73 focused cases pass, followed by all 29 package cases after the
final overload adjustment; server typecheck passes. The separate
Paperclip review found no must-fix or should-fix issues. Its optional
suggestion to persist durability verification was considered: cleanup
intentionally verifies current external bytes before discarding the last
local authored copy, and the missing-object regression requires that
check. Shared-package eviction happens on cold fills with at most two
attempts and a ten-second budget.


- The seventh Apex review reached 5/5 with one remaining P2:
timeout-bearing manifest reads bypassed request coalescing. The security
review also found repeated archive acquisition after a cold
administrative read. Commit 79a80a39d2 shares manifest loads with
per-caller cancellation and cancels the underlying work when the last
caller leaves; coalesces identical cold version/file requests; and
publishes verified restored packages into the shared cache. Publication
uses a short nonblocking lock, while eviction verification runs outside
it. The first expanded run passed 73/74 tests and exposed a missing
originating DB for cache publication inside read-only inspection;
transaction readers now pass that owner explicitly, keeping metadata on
the transaction. The corrected run passed 75/75. A final eviction test
initially expected the shared package to remain after only its separate
runtime projection was reused; it now explicitly accesses the shared
package during verification. All 32 final package tests pass, including
independent caller cancellation, one acquisition across
concurrent/repeated reads, and warm preparation during stalled eviction
verification. Server typecheck passes.


- The eighth Apex review scored 4/5 with one finding: decoded cold
inventories outlived the storage semaphore while waiting for cleanup.
Commit 9d7921d1ec adds a separate two-response/32-waiter lifetime bound
held through cleanup, preserving the independent warm-read queue and
forwarding cancellation through eviction verification. The new
regression pauses cleanup after two responses decode, verifies a third
archive stays queued, and completes warm preparation before releasing
cleanup. All 77 package/source/worker cases and server typecheck pass.
On the preceding head, serialized server shard 6/9 was interrupted with
“The operation was canceled” after 57 seconds of tests; the log contains
no failing assertion. Fresh latest-head CI reruns that shard along with
the other gates.

- The ninth Apex review scored 4/5 with one P1: cold responses could own
both permits while waiting on a one-slot ordinary database pool held by
a queued transaction reader. Commit a94f0e409f reads caller-scoped
metadata before admission and isolates all acquisition/cleanup SQL on a
private connection. The new real-PostgreSQL regression reproduces the
deadlock against the previous head and passes with the fix; all 78
focused cases and server typecheck pass. The previous CI run completed
with 54 successful checks, including both formerly interrupted/stuck
serialized shards.

- The tenth Apex review scored 4/5 with one P1: preloading legacy bodies
before admission could retain many full repositories in queued requests.
Commit 276e353a37 removes that preload and also bounds legacy manifest
derivation/fallback, using private connections inside the I/O slot. All
80 focused tests pass; the final synchronized package suite passes all
36 tests and server typecheck passes.

- Apex review 11 returned 5/5 with zero comments on 276e353a37. While it
ran, master 8bc051245f added migration 0403, creating a metadata
conflict. Merge commit e1783764d9 integrates master and generates
0404_clumsy_leo.sql; its skill SQL is byte-for-byte identical to the
previously verified migration. The combined schema passes migration
safety/numbering, repeated SQL application twice, all 80 focused
PostgreSQL tests, full workspace typecheck, and full build. The
preceding a94f0e409f CI run was superseded and cancelled while its final
runner job was active; no old-head success is claimed for that run.

- Final acceptance: Apex review 12 returned 5/5 with zero comments on
e1783764d9. All 28 review threads are resolved. The final head has 55
successful checks, two neutral reports, two skipped checks, and no
pending or failing checks; the PR workflow completed successfully.
Superseded run 40789121902 was cancelled to free its workflow slot for
the final head; normal cancellation did not finish promptly, so force
cancellation completed it.

- October 29 conflict resolution (867c00673b): master 929e840595 added
installed-selection reuse and bundled relocation, routine cleanup
notifications, a hardened YAML copy helper, and migrations through 0413.
The merge retains those behaviors together with package read scoping and
the public-selection fast path; restricted selections still reauthorize
and the full row read rechecks scope. Generated migration 0414 retains
the existing SQL unchanged. Workspace typecheck/build and migration
checks pass. Local database verification is unavailable: initdb reports
semget / “could not create semaphores: No space left on device”; all 168
cases skipped, and repeated migration application failed at startup.
Docker returned HTTP 500 during container creation, so no Docker test
pass is claimed. Current-head CI must close this gap.

- Apex review 14 scored 3/5 with one P1: a local import could copy
cached private package files into a company-wide skill. Commit
a2e597d800 rejects cache trees and ancestors through a canonical
filesystem boundary, including aliases and ancestors checked before a
concurrent fill. Ten local filesystem tests and server typecheck pass.
The existing private-project integration case now rejects package-cache
imports for both authorized and unauthorized users. The preceding merge
commit’s complete CI run passed, and logs confirm all 168 locally
skipped cases executed successfully: package store 36, sources 35,
package worker 9, runtime selection 4, observability 3, authoring 81.

- Apex review 15 returned 5/5 with zero new findings on a2e597d800. The
separate Paperclip review found no must-fix or should-fix issues. Its
optional suggestions were considered: unexpected filesystem cleanup
failures remain visible, the durable marker cannot replace checking that
bytes still exist before deleting a last local authored copy, and
administrative history batching remains outside the pre-turn
optimization. The cache-path literal centralization suggestion is also
optional; the current producer and guard use the same directory, covered
by the new integration regression. All review conversations are
resolved.

- Earlier October 29 CI/Apex acceptance: a2e597d800 was mergeable at
that check, Apex review 15 passed 5/5 with zero findings, and all review
conversations were resolved. The hosted verification above records the
later acceptance limits and renewed conflicts. Workflow 40884087629
completed successfully, with 55 successful checks, two neutral reports,
two skips, and no pending or failed checks. The project-skill-sources
job log confirms all 29 cases ran and passed, closing the latest
integration gap. The preceding merge workflow also confirmed all 168
focused database cases ran and passed. No local PostgreSQL or Docker
pass is claimed.

</details>

## Risks

- First use after eviction can require storage or Git access. Revoked
grants, removed sources, and unreachable commits can prevent
reconstruction. Recovery never substitutes a newer commit.
- Historical packages without a proven recipe keep durable bytes.
Cleanup favors retention when a run pin cannot be interpreted safely.
- New uploads and conversion use bounded work and persisted retries.
Large initial conversions still add temporary storage and database load.
- Optional cleanup can wait until the next server wake. Supported
notifications assume one owning server process.
- Per-entrypoint native tree duplication and cold preparation cost
remain. The final ten-skill cold sample took 47.6 seconds on the shared
host.
- Generic authored edits can still hold an existing edit transaction
while a package uploads.
- Explicit file/folder deletion uses temporary disk space for rollback.
An uncertain commit with a changed skill or unavailable database retains
that backup and logs its location for recovery.

DottaandPaperclip d432dc7fa3 Add GitHub-synced skill sources (#14713)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Company skills supply instructions and files to those agents.
> - GitHub imports already exist, but users cannot manage repositories
as skill sources.
> - Repository refresh also needs caller-authorized access and complete
local packages.
> - This pull request adds Sources inside Skills and reuses GitHub
connections from Apps.
> - Installed snapshots let agents use skills without fetching GitHub
during a run.
> - Manual refresh preserves skill identity and leaves failed imports on
their last good version.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: skills UI, server, database, shared contracts, and
runtime materialization.

**Problem or motivation**

Users keep skills in GitHub repositories. They need a clear way to
select, import, and refresh those skills. Existing imports do not expose
repository management or consistently preserve supporting files.

**Proposed solution**

Add company-scoped skill sources. Browse repositories from all
accessible GitHub connections, or paste a public repository or branch
URL. Select whole skill packages, inspect included files and reference
warnings, and install complete, immutable snapshots. Refresh each source
manually.

**Alternatives considered**

Project repository settings hide the workflow from Skills. A second
GitHub connector would duplicate credentials and grants. Upstream
editing and PR creation are separate work.

**Roadmap alignment**

This implements the Skills Manager direction in ROADMAP.md. The
maintainer requested this scope and reviewed the component and full-app
journey stories before implementation.

Related reports: Refs #10285, Refs #10949, Refs #13464. Related work:
#14356, #13656, #9268.

## What Changed

- Add source and entry records, an idempotent migration, company-scoped
APIs, and legacy GitHub import adoption.
- Reuse current caller grants and credential refresh. Combine and
deduplicate repository inventories across accessible connections. Pasted
public URLs also prefer the active user’s authorized connections. Tokens
stay in the Git child environment, never argv or disk.
- Fetch a shallow Git snapshot at one immutable commit. Scan the full
local tree, including hidden and nested folders. Read Git objects
without checkout or archive transformations and enforce nested package
boundaries.
- Bound Git downloads to 128 MiB and three minutes. Cancel active
process groups and remove incomplete downloads. Preserve cancellation
and deadlines while progress drains; close stalled HTTP progress streams
after 30 seconds. Reuse caller-scoped temporary snapshots for
preview/import after reauthorization.
- Index repository package boundaries once and cap expanded work at
1,000 packages, 10,000 files, and 100 MiB, including repeated copies of
shared blobs. Bound path depth and the shared path index. Discovery
keeps audited manifests without retaining all package bodies.
- Resolve moving branches before fetching so unchanged discovery reuses
caller-scoped snapshots. Limit active scans, scan frequency, and new
downloads per caller and company; quotas apply before metadata reads and
across connections, and cached scans do not consume the download quota.
- Store complete versions with script content, binary bytes, and
executable modes. Preserve these through copies, runtime caches, and
runner packaging.
- Stage downloads before publication. Use source leases, revision
checks, and transactional activity records. Keep installed versions
after failures, upstream deletion, deselection, and disconnect.
- Add the approved import flow, Sources page, selection tree,
provenance, read-only Studio behavior, and saved return from GitHub
setup.
- Add package manifests, commit-pinned file previews, and separate
runtime requirements and reference warnings. Supporting files are
included together; nested skills remain independently selectable.
Preview requests reauthorize the caller and re-audit package content.
- Show installed skills as compact links beneath each source. Repository
titles open GitHub. Keep Refresh, Select skills, and Disconnect source
in a three-dot menu. Source rows omit the branch, imported count, and
refresh timestamp; action alignment and repository titles work at narrow
widths.
- Stream discovery metadata over an opt-in NDJSON response. Show
measured Git download progress and real package/file counts, animate
newly checked skills, support cancellation, and require a complete scan
before selection. Keep the existing JSON API.
- Retain component stories and add a separate full-app journey story
group. Include fixed progress states and interactive scan,
large-repository, interruption, and saving stories.
- Update Skills documentation and product contracts. Suppress private
GitHub skill references in telemetry. Privacy review requested for the
telemetry changes.

## Verification

- Local repository typecheck, full build, token gates, and Storybook
build passed during this work. Focused transport, authorization,
scanner, persistence, route, and UI tests pass. The final UI refinement
passes all eight focused UI tests, UI typecheck/build, and token gates.
The scanner resource and repeated-discovery fixes pass 132 focused
scanner, transport, authorization, source-service, route, and rate-limit
tests, plus server typecheck/build. Full-suite verification comes from
CI; the older full local Vitest run was stopped after unrelated chat
failures and a font-test failure, all of which passed in fresh focused
runs. At commit `1098d5996`, all 54 active checks pass; two optional
Storybook jobs are skipped. CI covers repository typecheck, build, the
full test suites, browser shards, and the canary dry run. Greptile is
5/5 with no open findings; the security scan also passes.
- Adversarial scanner tests verify repeated-blob byte accounting with
and without declared sizes, package/file/path caps, one-time repository
indexing, metadata-only discovery audits, and nested package boundaries.
Additional tests cover branch movement, snapshot reuse, caller/company
quotas, isolation across connections, active-lease cleanup, quota
recovery, and rejection before any metadata API call.
- Real Git tests verify hidden paths, exact binary bytes, executable
modes, export-ignore preservation, symlink/submodule reporting, pinned
commits, caller-scoped cache reuse, cancellation, cleanup, and
credential isolation. Regression tests hold both download slots with
permanently blocked progress callbacks, verify timeout/cancellation
cleanup and retry, and exercise HTTP backpressure cancellation. Access
tests cover automatic public-URL connection selection and revoked
grants. Database tests verify company and grant audiences.
- Live isolated browser test: the public `anthropics/skills` scan now
completes and discovers all 20 skills without connecting an account.
Imported canvas-design with all 83 files, opened it from Sources, and
verified the installed binary-font preview/download control. Package
previews also expose the complete file inventory before import.
Cancelled an active Git download and retried successfully to all 20
discovered skills; the browser displayed measured download progress. The
current audits reject four other packages; eligible selections remain
importable.
- Browser checks verify the simplified source rows at desktop and narrow
widths, keyboard navigation into the actions menu, Refresh from the
menu, selection, and fixture disconnect with installed skills retained.
Storybook includes a menu-open checkpoint and a 320px layout.
- Storybook includes receiving/preparing download checkpoints and a
timed full-app import journey, plus cancellation, retry,
large-repository, and saving states. Streaming tests cover split UTF-8
frames, incomplete streams, late responses, cross-company requests, HTTP
errors, and JSON compatibility.
- Earlier live acceptance on this PR imported `stitch-skill` with
`DESIGN.md`, assigned it to an agent, disconnected its source, and ran a
successful Studio test that read both installed files. An editable copy
changed independently. Both Skills variants, mobile selection, and
return from GitHub setup were exercised.
- Private access, revoked credentials, OAuth success return,
binary/script preservation, concurrent refresh, transaction rollback,
version pins, and legacy adoption have automated coverage. A real
private-repository OAuth grant was not created during this test.

## Risks

- The migration groups recognizable legacy imports without provider
calls. Their first successful refresh completes the local package
snapshot.
- Reference checks are advisory. They cover Markdown links and explicit
relative resource paths, not arbitrary runtime dependency graphs.
Preview text is capped at 64 KiB; imported bytes remain complete.
- Git must be installed on the server. Shallow fetches still download
the branch snapshot, including files outside selected packages.
Downloads have size/time/concurrency limits. Temporary caches are
bounded and caller-scoped. GitHub API quota still applies to repository
metadata and the connection picker; content no longer uses per-file API
requests. Failed scans retain installed content.
- Sources depend on the current caller's GitHub access. A saved
connection does not grant access to another person's token.
- GitHub script support and immediate manual refresh are explicit
maintainer-approved requirements. The operator trusts the selected
repository and accepts upstream script and executable-mode changes on
refresh. Static audits are not a sandbox or a guarantee of safe code;
agents may later invoke installed helpers under their runtime
permissions. Import and refresh do not execute scripts, hooks, package
installation, or builds. Raw URL and skills.sh imports keep their prior
script restrictions.
- Source originals remain read-only. Refresh affects subsequent unpinned
runs; explicit pins and active runs retain their versions.
- The telemetry change removes source-managed GitHub identifiers from
skill-reference events. It introduces no event or field. Please review
the privacy boundary.

DottaandPaperclip 717684ad8f Add project folder browsing to skill imports (#9930)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane teams use to manage AI agents and
their reusable capabilities.
> - Skills Manager lets operators discover and import skills from
project workspaces.
> - Automatic discovery only surfaces skills in conventional locations,
so valid skills stored elsewhere in a project are invisible.
> - Operators need a safe way to navigate project folders without
exposing paths outside the selected workspace.
> - This pull request adds company-scoped workspace folder browsing and
selection to the project skill import flow.
> - The benefit is that operators can find and import valid skill
folders regardless of repository layout while preserving workspace
boundaries.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- **Subsystem affected:** Cross-cutting (`server/`, `ui/`, and
`packages/shared`).
- **Problem or motivation:** Project skill imports rely on conventional
directory discovery, which prevents operators from selecting valid
`SKILL.md` folders stored in atypical locations.
- **Proposed solution:** Add a company-scoped browse endpoint and a
folder browser in the import dialog. The server resolves real paths,
rejects traversal outside the workspace, skips symlinks and high-noise
directories, identifies skill directories/files, and caps listings at
250 entries.
- **Alternatives considered:** Expanding the automatic scan to every
directory would be slower and noisier, while accepting arbitrary
filesystem paths would weaken project/workspace scoping.
- **Roadmap alignment:** This extends the completed “Skills Manager,
Skill Studio & Skills Store” capability in `ROADMAP.md` without
duplicating planned core work.
- **Additional context:** GitHub search found no duplicate or closely
related public issues or pull requests.

## What Changed

- Added shared browse request/result contracts and validation for
project workspace navigation.
- Added a company-scoped API route and service that safely lists local
workspace folders and detects `SKILL.md` entries.
- Added project workspace/folder navigation to the import dialog,
including parent navigation, workspace switching, truncation feedback,
and direct skill selection.
- Added service and route regression tests for browsing, skill
detection, company isolation, and traversal rejection.
- Added shared response schemas and OpenAPI documentation for the browse
endpoint.
- Hardened explicit skill selections with realpath containment so
symlinked directories cannot escape the project workspace.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-skills.test.ts` — 64 tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts` — 3
tests passed.
- Focused post-review reruns: `company-skills-service.test.ts` — 45
tests passed; shared/server typechecks passed.
- GitHub latest-head checks — all green after one transient e2e rerun;
no pending or failing checks.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — all gates clean on the rebased head.

## Risks

- Low-to-moderate risk: this adds a filesystem browsing surface.
Realpath containment checks prevent workspace escape, symlinks are
excluded, remote-managed workspaces are rejected, and directory listings
are capped.
- The browser intentionally hides `.git` and `node_modules`; skills
inside those directories cannot be selected through this flow.

b13eb5b2b5 Skill Studio: three-pane skill IDE with sandboxed test runs (#9241)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Skills Manager gives operators a reusable skill layer, but
iteration still required manual edits, ad hoc prompts, and indirect run
inspection.
> - Skill authors need a focused workflow for editing skill files,
saving representative test inputs, and running those inputs through an
agent without exposing harness tasks as normal company work.
> - The backend therefore needs durable test inputs, reusable run
templates, hidden harness issues, scoped run execution, retention
metadata, and read-containment rules around hidden work.
> - The frontend needs a three-pane Studio that keeps skill files, saved
inputs/templates, and run output/history visible together while
preserving the existing design system and token rules.
> - This pull request ships that Skill Studio surface end to end:
database migrations, shared contracts, server APIs/services, hidden
harness execution behavior, UI routes/components, and focused tests.
> - The benefit is faster and safer skill iteration, with inspectable
outputs and fewer ways for internal harness work to leak into normal
task lists, costs, or adjacent read APIs.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this feature. Feature request summary:

- Problem: Skill authors need to edit and test company skills in one
place instead of switching between the skill detail page, task creation,
run output, and manual prompt history.
- Proposed solution: Add a Skill Studio workbench with saved inputs,
reusable templates, hidden sandboxed test runs, live run status, output
inspection, run history, rerun/delete controls, and frontmatter-aware
editing.
- Expected users: Paperclip operators and agent-company maintainers who
create, fork, import, and tune skills.
- Related public PRs: Supersedes #9205, which was replaced so the public
PR branch name follows contributor policy.
- Duplicate search: searched public GitHub issues and PRs for "Skill
Studio"; no other active public issue or PR directly covers this
feature.

## What Changed

- Added database migrations for Skill Studio test inputs, test runs,
test run retention, and reusable run templates.
- Added shared Skill Studio types, validators, route helpers,
frontmatter utilities, and status handling.
- Added server services and routes for saved inputs, test runs,
templates, reruns, terminal-run deletion, hidden harness issue
execution, and run-detail hydration.
- Strengthened hidden-issue read containment across issue-adjacent
routes and cost rollups used by skill test harness work.
- Added the Skill Studio UI with skill file editing, frontmatter
editing, saved inputs, templates, run creation/cancel/rerun/delete
flows, output rendering, history, route support, and responsive pane
behavior.
- Added focused backend, shared, and UI tests for the new APIs, routing
logic, editor/run behavior, hidden-issue containment, and migration
safety.
- Rebased onto current `master`, removed the generated lockfile diff
from the PR, and verified no workflow files are changed.

## Verification

- [x] `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db check:migrations`
- [x] `pnpm check:token-gates`
- [x] `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-service.test.ts

files, 132 tests passed
- [x] Greptile review on the latest PR head
- [x] GitHub PR checks on the latest PR head

## Risks

- Medium risk because this is a broad feature touching database schema,
server orchestration, issue visibility, and a large UI surface.
- Hidden harness issue containment is security-sensitive; this PR
includes regression coverage for adjacent read paths and cost rollups.
- The new migrations are additive and use idempotent guards where
applicable, but deployed databases that previously tested draft
migration numbers should still be checked carefully.
- The UI depends on a new resizable panels package in `ui/package.json`;
the lockfile is intentionally left to repository automation.

1413729a06 Build the Skills Store (#7990)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents increasingly depend on reusable skills, so the control plane
needs a first-class way to browse, inspect, install, version, and attach
those skills.
> - The old skills surface was mostly operational plumbing; it did not
give operators a store-like discovery flow, canonical detail URLs, rich
source/version context, or creation paths.
> - The backend also needed stronger contracts around company skill
metadata, versions, install counts, runtime materialization, and adapter
skill preferences.
> - This pull request builds the Skills Store foundation across DB,
shared contracts, server routes/services, UI, and Storybook.
> - The benefit is a more inspectable, operator-friendly skill workflow
that still preserves company-scoped control-plane boundaries and agent
runtime behavior.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No GitHub issue exists for this Paperclip work item. Paperclip task
refs: PAP-10846 and PAP-10921.

Feature request:
Paperclip operators need a single Skills Store experience where company
skills can be discovered, inspected, created, versioned, installed, and
attached to agents without relying on scattered operational screens or
implicit runtime state.

Related PR search:
- Searched GitHub for `Skills Store`, `company skills`, and `skill
detail`.
- Found several open skills-related PRs such as #7809 and #4409, but no
duplicate PR for this end-to-end Skills Store branch.

## What Changed

- Added the Skills Store backend foundation: company skill schema
fields, migrations, shared types/validators, and expanded server skill
routes/services.
- Added skill discovery, category navigation, canonical skill detail
routes, tabs, source attribution, version snapshots/diffs, install count
backfill, and creation flows.
- Updated agent skill preference handling so version selections survive
runtime mention injection and runtime skill materialization honors
pinned versions.
- Preserved unversioned skill assignments as live/current selections
instead of silently pinning them to the current version at assignment
time.
- Added focused regression coverage for company skill routes/services,
route helpers, UI behavior, skill version diffs, and runtime skill
version pins.
- Added Storybook coverage for Skills Store discovery/detail states and
updated the main layout navigation.
- Addressed Greptile findings around version creation races,
soft-deleted comments, fork metadata scoping, GitHub skill directory
fallback, runtime snapshot materialization, shared runtime
skill-selection helpers, and version-assignment semantics.

- Greptile Review succeeded on `0823957a2` with `40 files reviewed, 0
comments added`; GitHub unresolved review threads: 0.

Not run in this heartbeat:
- Browser screenshot capture for the UI changes. This PR intentionally
omits screenshots per the Paperclip task direction not to add design
screenshots/images.

## Risks

- Broad feature branch touching DB, shared contracts, server, and UI;
reviewers should still scan merge conflicts carefully if `master` moves
again before landing.
- Skill version/runtime behavior is sensitive: pinned skill versions
must stay pinned while default selections should continue following the
current version.
- UI polish should get normal reviewer/browser attention before merge
because this PR includes a large Skills Store surface and screenshots
were intentionally omitted.

discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent with tool use and local command
execution.

DottaandPaperclip 9eac727cf1 [codex] Add skills CLI and catalog management (#6782)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies through
company-scoped control-plane workflows.
> - Agents need reusable, inspectable skills that can be installed,
reset, audited, exported, and assigned without bespoke local setup.
> - The existing skill truth model needed cleanup so bundled skills,
optional catalog skills, runtime skills, and adapter-provided skills
have clear provenance.
> - Operators also need a practical CLI and board UI for discovering and
managing company skills.
> - This pull request adds the skills CLI, packaged skills catalog,
company skills APIs, and catalog-aware board UI.
> - The benefit is a more reusable Paperclip company setup where skills
are portable, auditable, and easier for operators and agents to manage.

## What Changed

- Added `paperclipai skills` CLI commands and coverage for catalog
listing, installing, resetting, and inspecting company skills.
- Added a packaged `@paperclipai/skills-catalog` workspace with bundled
and optional skill content plus validation/build tests.
- Added shared company-skill types and validators used across CLI,
server, and UI contracts.
- Added server catalog APIs/services for company skill catalog
operations, reset semantics, audit behavior, and portability provenance.
- Updated adapter skill handling so runtime/catalog provenance remains
explicit across local adapters.
- Added board UI support for browsing and managing catalog-backed
company skills.
- Updated docs for the skills CLI/catalog flow and the company skills
Paperclip skill reference.
- Rebased the branch onto current `paperclipai/paperclip:master`; no
`pnpm-lock.yaml`, `.github/workflows`, or migration files are included
in the final PR diff.

## Verification

- Passed: `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links && pnpm exec vitest run
cli/src/__tests__/skills.test.ts
packages/skills-catalog/src/catalog-builder.test.ts
packages/skills-catalog/src/shipped-catalog.test.ts
packages/shared/src/validators/company-skill.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts
packages/plugins/create-paperclip-plugin/src/entrypoints.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-catalog-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts`.
- Passed: `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts -t "default
branch|origin/master|symbolic-ref"`.
- Attempted: full `server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts`. Four
provisioning tests failed while seeding an isolated worktree database
from the local Paperclip instance because the local plugin schema dump
contains a duplicate-column foreign key
(`plugin_content_machine_18a7bc327b.content_case_signals`). The
default-branch tests touched by the rebase conflict passed in the
focused run above.
- Checked final diff: no `pnpm-lock.yaml`, no `.github/workflows`, and
no migration-file changes relative to `master`.

## Risks

- Medium: this is a broad skills/catalog change touching CLI, server
APIs, shared contracts, adapter skill sync, and UI.
- Catalog validation and reset semantics need careful reviewer attention
because they affect reusable company setup and portability.
- No database migrations are included in this PR, so there is no
migration ordering/idempotency risk in the final diff.
- No lockfile is included by design; dependency resolution will be
handled by the repository lockfile workflow.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5, running in Paperclip via the
`codex_local` adapter with shell, git, GitHub CLI, and code-editing tool
access. Exact hosted model build/context-window metadata is not exposed
in this runtime.

## Checklist

- [x] I have included a thinking path that traces from project context
to this change
- [x] I have specified the model used (with version and capability
details)
- [x] I have checked ROADMAP.md and confirmed this PR does not duplicate
planned core work
- [x] I have run targeted tests locally and documented the local
workspace-runtime seed failure above
- [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable
- [x] If this change affects the UI, screenshots were intentionally
omitted per PAP-10124 instructions; UI behavior is covered by tests and
reviewer inspection
- [x] I have updated relevant documentation to reflect my changes
- [x] I have considered and documented any risks above
- [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before
requesting merge

Daniel Sousa 77f854c081 feat(company-skills): implement skill deletion with agent usage check
Added functionality to prevent deletion of skills that are still in use by agents. Updated the company skill service to throw an unprocessable error if a skill is attempted to be deleted while still referenced by agents. Enhanced the UI to include a delete button and confirmation dialog, displaying relevant messages based on agent usage. Updated tests to cover the new deletion logic and error handling.
