scotttongandClaude Opus 5 8f69e0af9d fix(ui): confirm every copy action (#13603)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Much of the work means moving an opaque value somewhere else: an
agent id, a callback URL, a webhook secret, an error payload for a bug
report
> - Copy buttons all over the app do that, and most already say whether
it worked — an icon that flips to a check, a label that reads "Copied"
> - Eleven did not. They passed the promise to `.catch(() => {})` and
showed nothing at all
> - A copy that says nothing looks exactly like a copy the browser
refused, and the only way to tell is to paste somewhere and look
> - The clipboard really does refuse: over plain HTTP on a non-secure
host the async Clipboard API is unavailable, and the fallback can still
fail
> - This pull request gives every copy action an affordance, through two
shared hooks
> - The benefit is that a person can tell a copy from a failure without
leaving the page

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Eleven copy buttons gave no feedback. They called `copyTextToClipboard`
and discarded the result:

```
onClick={() => void copyTextToClipboard(robotEmail).catch(() => {})}
```

Nothing changes on screen, whether the write succeeded or failed. This
is the same surface where most other copy buttons do show a check or a
"Copied" label, so the silent ones read as broken.

**Expected behavior**

Every copy action says whether the clipboard took the value. A rejected
write says so rather than staying silent or claiming success.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open the connector setup flow for an app that shows a sharing email
or a callback URL.
2. Press **Copy** next to that value.
3. Before this change nothing on screen changes. Compare with the copy
button on a login panel, which flips to a check.
4. To see the failure case, open Paperclip over plain HTTP on a
non-localhost host, where the async Clipboard API is not available.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`45586170e` on `master`.

**Deployment mode**

Local.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Not adapter-specific (core bug).

**Additional context**

Commit `1fa36be35` moved every copy through `lib/clipboard.ts`, so the
call sites are findable. Of 62 call sites, 51 already showed feedback
and 11 did not.

## What Changed

- New `ui/src/lib/use-copy-action.ts` with two hooks:
- `useCopyAction` for a control that stays on screen. It returns
`copied` and `failed` for the inline swap the rest of the app already
uses, and resets itself.
- `useCopyToast` for a menu item, which unmounts with its menu before an
inline state could be read, so its confirmation goes to the toast
viewport.
- Both wait for the write to resolve before reporting success, and both
report a rejection as a failure. `AdapterLoginChrome.test.tsx` already
held that line for one button; the helper now makes it the default.
- The eleven silent sites now use one of the two: the connector setup
flow's sharing-email and callback-URL buttons, the runner inspector's
copy-value and copy-path buttons, the agent bubble and skill studio menu
items, annotation "Copy link" on both its hosts, both secret-error
detail buttons, the chat webhook secret, and the motion tweak panel's
export box.
- The chat webhook secret follows its own file's convention: a label
that reads "Webhook secret copied", matching the manifest buttons beside
it.
- The 51 sites that already had feedback are untouched. Converting them
would be a large diff with no visible change.
- `clipboard-usage.test.ts` gains a static check, sibling to the one
that already keeps copies on the shared helper. It fails if a new copy
site ships with no affordance.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run ui/src/lib/use-copy-action.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/clipboard-usage.test.ts ui/src/lib/clipboard.test.ts
ui/src/components/AdapterLoginChrome.test.tsx` — 18 tests pass.
- The new hook tests cover the three cases that matter: no confirmation
while the write is still in flight, a failure state on a rejected write,
and a return to rest after the reset delay. The toast hook is covered
for both tones.
- `npx vitest run ui/src/pages/apps/AppsConnect.test.tsx
ui/src/components/task-chat ui/src/components/RunnerInspector.test.tsx
ui/src/components/DocumentAnnotation` — the suites over the touched
components pass.
- `npx tsc -b ui` — clean.

## Risks

Low. Each change is additive at its own call site and the copy path
itself is unchanged. The static check is the only part that touches
future contributors: it is one assertion, and its pattern list is easy
to extend or drop.

DottaandPaperclip 1fa36be353 fix(ui): use HTTP-safe clipboard copy everywhere (#10875)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators often open self-hosted Paperclip over plain HTTP on a LAN
or private network.
> - Browser Clipboard API writes are not reliable in that insecure
context.
> - Paperclip already has one shared helper with a legacy copy fallback,
but many current copy actions bypass it.
> - This pull request routes every core UI copy action and the
first-party workspace-diff plugin through the shared helper.
> - The benefit is consistent copy behavior on HTTPS, localhost, and
plain-HTTP private deployments.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #3529.

This change supersedes the stale prior attempt in #3531. Current master
has more copy surfaces and a first-party plugin UI bridge that the prior
branch does not cover.

## What Changed

- Replaced direct Clipboard API writes and duplicate fallback
implementations across the current core UI with `copyTextToClipboard`.
- Added an HTTP-safe clipboard function to the plugin UI SDK and wired
the host bridge to the same implementation.
- Migrated the first-party workspace-diff plugin to the plugin SDK
clipboard function.
- Added unit coverage for native rejection fallback and plugin host
delegation.
- Added a source-level regression test that rejects new direct clipboard
writes outside the shared implementation.
- Documented the plugin UI clipboard function.

## Verification

- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm exec vitest run ...` for 14 affected suites: 164
tests passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run tests/ui-clipboard.test.ts` in
`packages/plugins/sdk`: 1 test passed.
- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm -r typecheck`: passed for 31 workspace projects.
- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm test:run`: passed.
- `NODE_ENV=production pnpm build`: passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: passed with all gates clean.

## Risks

Low risk. Secure contexts still use the modern Clipboard API. Plain HTTP
and rejected modern writes use the existing `execCommand("copy")`
fallback. That API is deprecated, but it is the compatibility path
required for insecure contexts. The change has no schema, API, or visual
design effect.

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

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, `gpt-5.6-sol`. The runtime did not expose a context-window
size. Reasoning, tool use, repository editing, test execution, and
GitHub CLI access were enabled.

scotttongandClaude Fable 5 c185e64b77 feat(ui): chat-style task view behind an experimental flag (#10606)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators spend most of their time on the issue detail page. They
talk to the assigned agent there through comments.
> - The current page reads as a ticket form. The thread sits below
properties, the composer sits mid-page, and live agent activity renders
as dense transcript logs.
> - Talking to an agent is a conversation. A chat-first layout matches
that mental model better than a ticket form.
> - A layout change this large must not disrupt current users. It needs
a safe opt-in path and full parity with the existing thread features.
> - This pull request adds a chat-style task view behind a new
"Chat-Style Tasks" experiment toggle. The flag is off by default and the
existing page is unchanged when it is off.
> - The benefit is a focused, readable conversation with the agent: live
tool activity folds into compact summaries, the composer stays at the
bottom, and properties, plan, and artifacts move into header tabs.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #49 (chat with agents is a much-wanted feature).

Related PRs found in the dedup search:
- #4489 — an earlier, closed attempt to promote the conversation to the
primary surface on issue detail. This PR is a fresh, flag-gated take on
the same goal.
- #8837 — an open PR that proposes a two-column task layout. It
restructures the same page but keeps the ticket paradigm; this PR is
orthogonal because it is opt-in and chat-first.

**Subsystem affected**

UI (issue detail page).

**Problem or motivation**

The issue detail page presents agent conversations as a ticket:
properties first, thread below, composer in the middle of the page, and
raw transcript noise during live runs. Users who mainly converse with
their agents must scroll past chrome to follow the conversation, and
live activity is hard to read.

**Proposed solution**

An opt-in chat-style view of the issue detail page, gated by a new
"Chat-Style Tasks" experiment toggle in Settings → Experimental. With
the flag on, the thread fills the center pane, the composer docks to the
bottom of the viewport, Properties / Plan / Artifacts become header
tabs, live turns show a status pill with the current tool action and
elapsed time, and settled turns collapse to a "Worked · N tools" summary
that expands into per-tool rows. With the flag off, nothing changes.

**Alternatives considered**

Restyling the existing layout in place (rejected: too disruptive without
an opt-out), and a separate chat page beside the issue page (rejected:
splits the task's single source of truth). A per-request lab page
(`/task-chat-lab`, dev-only) was kept for design iteration instead.

**Roadmap alignment**

ROADMAP.md "CEO Chat" wants lighter conversations that still resolve to
real work objects. This PR keeps the core task-and-comments model — it
only changes presentation, opt-in — so it does not duplicate that
planned work.

## What Changed

- New `enableTaskChatRedesign` instance setting, exposed as a
"Chat-Style Tasks" experiment card in Settings → Experimental (shared
feature catalog, validators, server instance-settings service, and UI
settings page).
- New `ui/src/components/task-chat/` component family: chat thread with
turn grouping, agent reply bubbles, live status pill, collapsible turn
summaries with per-tool rows, plan tab with a sticky CTA action bar,
inline interaction cards, per-request mode chips, and a bottom-docked
composer.
- A shared tool taxonomy (`tool-taxonomy.ts`) maps tool names to verbs
and icons; the status pill, tool rows, and the classic transcript view
all use it.
- A transcript adapter converts stored run logs into chat turns; it
dedupes tool-call updates by `toolUseId` so tool counts match the
expanded rows, and it keeps a tool row's first real name when later
generic updates arrive.
- Composer: posts on Cmd/Ctrl+Enter, supports image paste with
object-URL thumbnail previews (revoked on clear/unmount), and uploads
through the issue attachments route.
- `IssueDetail.tsx`: with the flag on, pane tabs move to the header bar,
the header is not sticky, and the chat fills the center; with the flag
off, the previous layout renders unchanged.
- Motion tokens for the new animations live in `ui/src/index.css` with a
`motion-tokens.ts` catalog and a test that keeps the two in sync (the
catalog now also covers the shared enter/exit/swap tokens that the
decision/quicklook block declares).
- A dev-only `/task-chat-lab` page with fixtures and a tweak panel for
motion tuning.

## Verification

- `pnpm typecheck` — clean across the workspace.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — 3/3 CLEAN.
- `cd ui && pnpm vitest run` — 3,344 of 3,345 tests pass locally. The
one failure is `IssueProperties.test.tsx` monitor-row time formatting,
which is timezone-sensitive: it also fails on unmodified `origin/master`
in a non-UTC timezone and passes with `TZ=UTC`. It is not related to
this change.
- `cd server && pnpm vitest run
src/__tests__/instance-settings-service.test.ts` — 21/21 pass (covers
the new setting).
- Manual: start the dev server, open Settings → Experimental, enable
"Chat-Style Tasks", and open any issue. The thread fills the page, the
composer docks to the bottom, and Properties / Plan / Artifacts appear
as header tabs. Assign an agent and comment to watch a live run: the
status pill shows the current tool action with elapsed time, and the
finished turn folds into a "Worked · N tools" summary. Disable the
toggle and confirm the classic page is unchanged.
- Visual snapshot baselines are intentionally not updated: per
`doc/design/DECISION-SHEET.md`, "Per-change snapshot verification
demoted to dormant (Jul 13 2026)".

## Risks

- The flag-off path goes through the same `IssueDetail.tsx` file, so a
regression there would affect current users. Mitigation: the classic
markup renders through the same components as before behind explicit
flag conditionals, and the full UI suite passes.
- The transcript adapter interprets stored run-log formats, including
legacy entries without `toolUseId`. Malformed logs degrade to generic
tool rows rather than crashing.
- The new view changes no server behavior other than one additive
instance setting; it is additive and default-off. Overall risk with the
flag off is low.

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic), model id `claude-fable-5` (Claude Fable 5),
extended thinking enabled, agentic tool use (file editing, shell, test
execution) via Claude Code / Claude Agent SDK.
