DottaandPaperclip cfc3e6805c fix(runtime): retain only journal authority evidence
Project ordinary semantic outputs and unused event headers away while preserving completion, process, and warm-transition authority. Account retained JSON bytes rather than discarded parser work, and open proof inputs without blocking on special files.

DottaandPaperclip 640dee1802 fix(runner): acquire reusable leases when switching to warm sessions (#14187)
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip coordinates agent work across task turns.
> - Warm runners need reusable sandbox leases.
> - Lease acquisition read only the environment reuse setting.
> - Startup then read the agent's new warm setting and rejected the
ephemeral lease.
> - This fix requests reuse before acquisition, with provider checks
intact.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**What happened?**
Switching an existing native runner task from per-turn to warm fails
with `runner_warm_environment_requires_reusable_lease`. Environment
`reuseLease` defaults to false. Acquisition therefore creates an
ephemeral lease, and capability narrowing correctly denies reuse.

**Expected behavior**
Changing lifecycle between turns requests a compatible lease without
replacing the task workspace or changing the shared environment.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a native runner task with inherited lifecycle and environment
reuse disabled.
2. Change the agent from per-turn to warm.
3. Continue the task on a reusable-capable sandbox provider.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Reproduced on `a6c4e7a`. Related: #12904 established warm workspace
continuity; this fixes the earlier lease-selection mismatch.

## What Changed
- Pass agent settings into acquisition and derive a run-scoped reuse
request.
- Respect explicit environment lifecycle overrides; leave other adapters
unchanged.
- Keep provider capability, ownership, cleanup and restore gates intact.
- Add orchestration and database-backed transition tests; document the
contract.

## Verification
- Red: three new assertions failed before the fix.
- Green: 156 tests pass in environment-run-orchestrator,
environment-runtime, native-sandbox-lifecycle, and
environment-execution-target-capabilities.
- Database-backed regression proves ephemeral → reusable → resumed
lease, same workspace, and unchanged stored environment. Provider RPCs
are mocked, not live Daytona.
- `git diff --check` passes.
- Latest-head CI passes typecheck, build, tests, runner checks, E2E, and
canary dry run. Greptile: 5/5; no open threads.
- Recovery uses the persisted lifecycle. Direct regression: red before,
six cases green after. CI runs the added Vitest cases.
- Full local checks were unavailable (missing dependencies and earlier
memory limits).

## Risks
Warm mode now requests retained resources despite an environment's
default `reuseLease:false`. Existing idle timeout and cleanup still
apply. Unsupported providers remain denied. No migration, credential
[REDACTED], or shared-environment mutation.

## Model Used
OpenAI Codex agent; reasoning, code editing and test execution. Exact
model ID and context size were not exposed to this run.

DottaandPaperclip f2ed0b65c4 fix(runner): enable API tools by default (#14186)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The native runner exposes tools for company tasks.
> - API search and call tools cover operations without a dedicated tool.
> - The current default hides these tools unless an operator sets an
environment variable.
> - This pull request enables the tools when that variable is absent.
> - Operators can still disable the tools or restrict them to selected
companies.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13003, which added the guarded API tools.

**What happened?**
The native runner does not advertise `search_api` or `call_api` with the
default server configuration.

**Expected behavior**
The tools are available without a special environment variable. Existing
authorization checks still apply.

**Steps to reproduce**
Remove `PAPERCLIP_RUNNER_API_TOOLS_ENABLED` and
`PAPERCLIP_RUNNER_API_TOOLS_COMPANY_IDS`. Create a normal runner
authority. Inspect its tool definitions.

**Paperclip version or commit**
a6c4e7a.

## What Changed

- Enable API tools when the server flag is absent.
- Keep explicit disable, invalid-value rejection, company restrictions,
and binding restrictions.
- Test default tool definitions and run HTTP integration tests without
the enabling flag.
- Update operator and hiring documentation. The existing shared gate
also controls `hire_agent`.
- Use the same policy in the E2E evidence summary so an unset flag is
not reported as disabled.
- Isolate default-availability tests from operator environment
variables.

## Verification

- Red test: two new rollout policy assertions failed before the fix.
- Focused policy, authority, and HTTP tests: 3 files passed; 41 tests
passed, 2 skipped. The two runnerd transport cases require a Rust-built
binary absent from this workspace.
- Command: `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/native-runtime/runner-api-rollout.test.ts
server/src/services/native-runtime/paperclip-runner-tool-authority.test.ts
server/src/services/native-runtime/runner-api.integration.test.ts`.
- Attempted `pnpm -r typecheck`: blocked by missing `cargo` in this
workspace.
- Attempted `pnpm build`: terminated at the 4 GiB memory limit.
- Attempted `pnpm test:run`: stopped after memory pressure to run
focused tests alone.
- Repeated the 41 passing focused tests with an inherited disabled flag
and a foreign-company restriction; test isolation passed.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`: 44 files and 543 tests passed.
- `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck` exceeded the workspace memory limit,
including a retry with bounded Go memory settings.
- CI results will be recorded before handoff.

## Risks

- More native runs can discover API tools and the existing `hire_agent`
tool by default.
- The change does not remove company, run, mode, credential, lifecycle,
or approval checks.
- Explicit operator restrictions still take precedence. No database
migration is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex agent. The runtime does not expose the exact model ID or
context-window size. Used reasoning, repository tools, shell execution,
and tests.

a6c4e7a8d1 fix(heartbeat): cancel obsolete execution continuations before dispatch (#13761)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A comment can queue execution before the task changes state.
> - The task may be completed, cancelled, deleted, or reassigned before
setup checks ownership.
> - The ownership guard must prevent that obsolete execution from
starting.
> - This pull request records that guard outcome as cancellation and
settles the wake request.
> - Missing history and authorization errors remain failures that
operators can investigate.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A comment can queue a run just before a user marks its task Done. The
ownership guard stops setup before adapter dispatch, but the run becomes
a setup failure and can put the agent into an error state.

**Expected behavior**

Cancel obsolete work when the typed task ownership guard rejects it.
Keep genuine setup errors visible. Do not change the task's terminal
state or current owner.

**Steps to reproduce**

Queue a task continuation, then mark the task Done or Cancelled before
continuation setup. The run should settle as cancelled without invoking
the adapter. Deleting or reassigning the task must also prevent
dispatch. Missing source history or explicit user authorization must
still fail.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Refreshed against master `b2e9e82f053af14777fd68e8834fff6bb64c84c4`.
Related: #13546 covers lost issue-lock claims, and #13888 covers
persisted continuation decisions and retry budgets. This change handles
the final continuation ownership guard during setup.

Thanks to @MrBlackTongue for the original typed cancellation
implementation and regression coverage. This update preserves the
contributor's commits, resolves the master conflict, and narrows
cancellation to task ownership invalidation.

## What Changed

- Add a typed `StaleExecutionContinuationError` for
`continuation_task_ownership_changed`.
- Use existing cancellation settlement for that typed guard, including
the run, wake request, issue execution ownership, and agent state.
Suppress immediate recovery of obsolete work.
- Preserve failure classification for missing source context, missing
user authorization, and untyped errors, including an untyped error with
identical text.
- Cover Done and Cancelled tasks with real database checks. Retain
company and assignment guard coverage. Verify cancellation performs no
adapter dispatch or automatic replay.
- Document the cancellation event and its error classification in the
run-log guide.

## Verification

Current head: `b875486e81`.

- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
server/src/services/execution-continuation.test.ts --maxWorkers=1
--no-file-parallelism -t 'authorized continuation context|obsolete
continuation setup|untyped continuation setup failures'`: 17 passed; 316
unrelated tests excluded by the name filter.
- `pnpm test:run`: local full run is still finishing. It is not a clean
pass: the observed failures are three company-skills cache checks
(`EACCES` while renaming read-only cache directories on macOS), one
tool-access assertion, and one comment-wake timeout. The three cache
failures reproduce in isolation in unchanged code. The tool-access check
passes in isolation, and the entire comment-wake file passes (29 tests),
including explicit feedback after completion. Final full-run totals will
be added when available.
-
[CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36282532652):
all gates green on this head. An unchanged Runner workspace-diff test
initially returned no diff; an isolated check passed, and the failed job
plus its dependent gate passed on retry with no code change. Original
failed job: 108517010989.
- Greptile: 5/5 on the full current head, with no unresolved review
threads. Branch is current with master and conflict-free.
- Diff check and local secret/PII scan passed. No customer data or
private deployment identifiers are included.

## Risks

The classification change is limited to the typed ownership guard. A
task with missing history remains a failure rather than being treated as
an expected cancellation. Existing company, task-owner, terminal-state,
and authorization checks still prevent dispatch. Cancellation retains
its specific reason in the run log and does not grant a retry. No
schema, dependency, or API changes; no migration is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 via Codex assisted investigation, implementation, code
review, and test execution. The exact serving model identifier and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip b2e9e82f05 fix: stop remote Grok runs before continuing queued messages (#14100)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The execution service owns each run and saves messages sent while it
runs.
> - Interrupt must stop the current executor before it delivers those
messages.
> - Remote Grok commands did not register the host cancellation control.
> - A cancelled task run could still write Done and prevent queue
recovery.
> - This pull request connects remote cancellation and revokes cancelled
run writes.
> - Saved input can use the existing queue admission rules after
verified cleanup.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Interrupting a queued message marked a remote Grok run cancelled before
its sandbox stopped. The old run could still post a reply and mark the
task Done. Its saved follow-up remained deferred behind execution
recovery.

**Expected behavior**

Stop revokes run write authority and waits for verified termination.
Saved messages remain durable and enter one successor through normal
admission after cleanup.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a task with `grok_local` in a remote sandbox.
2. Send a follow-up and use Interrupt while the command runs.
3. Let the old command attempt a task status update after cancellation.
4. Observe the task disposition and the saved message queue.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The gap is present in master at `d3e0f0a238`.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated server with a Daytona sandbox.

Related work: #14028 and #14046 handle bounded continuation. #13291
covers infrastructure interruption and verified remote cleanup. #13332
addresses atomic recovery holds. This change handles direct Grok
operator cancellation and stale task writes.

## What Changed

- Register remote Grok cancellation before preparation. Keep command
ownership until the host confirms sandbox termination.
- Reuse the sandbox cancellation boundary for the direct CLI invocation.
Reject fresh attempts after cancellation and preserve workspace restore
failure evidence.
- Reject writes from cancelled task JWTs and runs with a pending stop.
Preserve diagnostic reads and existing conversation error codes.
- Recheck run authority under a database lock before task updates and
interaction responses commit.
- Preserve authorized handoffs that stop their own run. Only the
server-issued stop receipt for that request permits the final task
update.
- Add tests for hung commands, unverified stops, early cancellation,
copy-back failures, late Done, late interaction responses, authorized
handoffs, exact lease receipts, and one queue successor across
concurrent restart sweeps.
- Document the cancellation and write-authority contract.

## Verification

- Targeted adapter, cancellation-boundary, authentication,
queued-message, interaction-service, and activity-route tests passed.
The expanded run passed 214 tests; one new test had an incomplete
fixture. After correcting the fixture, all 8 selected follow-up cases
passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed on
`179c86caf1bf0d89914a503d46e24af7e4b8c557`.
- `pnpm build`: passed on the same commit.
- `pnpm test:run`: the general-server group completed with 13,521
passed, 99 skipped, and 18 failed tests. It then stopped, so the
remaining local groups did not run. Five Slack, email, and wake-batching
failures passed on focused reruns after correcting the local
environment. The remaining 13 failures reproduce as `EACCES` on rename
in unchanged skill-cache code on macOS. Two custom-image suite setup
hooks also failed to start embedded PostgreSQL after the machine
exhausted shared-memory slots; all 31 tests in that file passed on rerun
after the local resource issue was resolved. CI covers all test groups.
- CI: 53 checks passed and 2 were skipped on the latest commit,
including the aggregate verification gate. The last server shard passed
on its single rerun after a preview-server startup timeout. The affected
file also passed locally with 28 passed and 3 skipped.
- Greptile: 5/5 on the latest commit. Both review threads are resolved.
- No live deployment or staging task mutation has been performed.

## Risks

- Stopping the sandbox can prevent file copy-back. The result preserves
workspace restore failure evidence; termination does not imply restored
files.
- If provider termination fails, the adapter keeps ownership of its
outstanding command and does not acknowledge Stop.
- The write restriction now applies to ordinary cancelled tasks. Reads
remain allowed. Task and interaction checks add a shared run-row lock to
agent mutations. An exact server-issued receipt permits the task request
that stopped its own run to complete its handoff.
- Existing terminal tasks are not reopened automatically. An operator
must correct a historical late Done before its saved queue can continue.
- No schema migration or UI change.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 96bf004a79 fix: use persisted state for lifecycle continuation and retry budgets (#13888)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Its control plane decides when a task can continue, wait, stop, or
complete.
> - Legacy continuation could change when an agent changed its wording
without changing task state.
> - Shared attempt counts also let repair and infrastructure retries
affect each other's limits.
> - This pull request uses persisted state and separate, bounded
allowances for these decisions.
> - If automatic repair stops, the task explains what happened and
offers a guarded retry.
> - Paired tests and real-provider evaluations verify that Stop,
approvals, ownership, and spending limits remain authoritative.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related work: Refs #13761, Refs #11126, Refs #13610. These cover
obsolete continuation dispatch and retry storms. Open and closed issues
and PRs were searched for related lifecycle, continuation, and retry
work.

**What happened?**
Legacy continuation depended on English wording and progress heuristics.
Repair, failure retry, and productive continuation could consume shared
counts. When bounded repair stopped, the task showed a technical
recovery message without a clear next action.

**Expected behavior**
Persisted disposition and owned execution paths determine the next
action. Missing disposition prompts bounded agent repair. Explicit work
mode determines planning mode. Narrative changes and raw activity counts
cannot replenish allowances. An exhausted repair shows a readable
notice. An explicit retry checks current controls and preserves the
assigned agent.

**Steps to reproduce**
Run `pnpm test:lifecycle-baseline`. The paired probes keep structured
state constant while varying completion, planning, blocker, and progress
prose. Run the explicit `lifecycle-baseline` and
`continuation-accounting` Product E2E suites for real-provider coverage.
In Storybook, open **Design previews / Recovery notice** to inspect the
production component's normal, pending, acknowledged, unavailable,
failure, and mobile states.

## What Changed

- Hide the image attachment button, icon, and drop/paste hint in answer
composers. Image paste and drop support remains available.
- Merge current master and retain both browser regression sets. Use a
production-stamped service worker in the offline recovery browser
fixture.
- Share one state-based legacy continuation decision across immediate,
delayed, and recovered dispatch. Bind bounded repairs to their source
run and episode.
- Remove title and description wording from work-mode authority. Agents
can still write requested plans in execution mode.
- Persist separate failure-retry and productive-continuation counters.
Disposition repair and resource waits cannot consume or reset those
allowances.
- Validate delayed repair identity, then recheck current gates before
provider dispatch. Fence native startup cancellation.
- Show **Agent needs attention**, a plain-language explanation, **Retry
agent**, and expandable details in both task interfaces. Report request
progress, acknowledgement, and errors inline.
- Store typed recovery notice metadata. Recognize older active notices
only through exact stored action and run IDs. Notice text never grants
retry authority.
- Use the existing recovery-action endpoint for retry. Recheck current
action, status, owner, agent availability, dependencies, active runs,
pending questions and confirmations, approvals, pause controls, and
budget. Duplicate requests do not wake twice.
- Add component, page, route, database, contract, and Storybook
coverage. Keep the scenario inventory and executable evals here.
Historical reports and snapshots live in the [commit-pinned
paperclip-evals
archive](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-evals/blob/ce3e5afcd4a1184650f586a2b5b8be5874c66c8b/experiments/2026-09-lifecycle-authority/README.md).
- Preserve unsaved project fields while the same project URL changes to
its canonical alias. Do not reuse data across projects or companies.
This separate fix addresses the repeated repository-editor browser
failure without changing the browser test.
- Keep the development service worker from intercepting Vite module
reloads. Update the connection-intent browser fixture to record progress
and completion through the agent API.

## Verification

Merge preparation on September 25, commit
`c1e8e4b7ddd9fbc4913ed55ce21b8e12906c2f97`:

- Merged master `bd2030932` and resolved the browser test-list conflict
by keeping both sets of regressions.
- Deterministic lifecycle baseline: 1,090/1,090 assertions passed; no
failures, skips, or missing selected evidence. Unit 423, runner 184,
database integration 397, grading 86.
- Browser support: 17/17 passed. The offline recovery test first failed
with an unstamped development worker, then passed with the production
stamp. Its assertions are unchanged.
- Focused interaction UI and offline fallback tests: 19/19 passed.
Verified the custom-answer composer in Storybook: no attachment controls
or hint; entering an answer enables Next.
- Recursive typecheck, production build, token gates, and diff checks
passed. The worktree is clean. No new real-provider campaign was run.
- Current CI and review: [Current PR CI
passed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36166011243):
55 successful checks and two optional Storybook skips. Greptile scored
this exact commit 5/5. Hiding the question attachment controls is an
intentional UI change; paste/drop remains available.

Earlier recovery UI verification, commit
`21be0fec0e90e86b6d662b8ee4831847cd041cdb`:

- Recursive typecheck, production build, token gates, and diff checks
passed.
- Focused UI coverage: 338 tests passed across six suites (336 before
the interaction guard, with the two affected suites rerun at 149 passed
after it). Covers both task interfaces, the real page mutation,
pending/error acknowledgement, stale state, and unavailable controls.
- Recovery database integration: 352 tests passed before the interaction
guard. The complete recovery-action and mutation-route suites passed 181
tests after it. The two new pending question/confirmation regressions
failed before the fix and passed afterward, including
resolved-interaction controls. Shared validator suite: 31 passed. E2E
catalog suites: 34 passed.
- Browser inspection passed for light/dark themes, mobile layout,
expandable details, pending retry, acknowledgement, failure, and
disabled retry. Storybook renders the production component; its request
is simulated.
- The broad local run hit two chat callback-order wait failures and was
stopped after all CI unit/database/runner shards passed. Both local
failures passed when rerun without the competing full-suite process.
- CI exposed a repeated project-repository draft-loss race during
canonical redirects. A new unit regression failed before the fix; all
nine project-page tests now pass, including controls for other projects
and companies. Both unchanged repository browser tests passed against a
fresh local server. UI typecheck, production UI build, and token gates
passed after this fix.
- [Earlier PR CI
passed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36072486798)
on `21be0fec0e90e86b6d662b8ee4831847cd041cdb`: 55 successful checks, two
optional Storybook skips, and no failed or pending checks. The
repository browser shard passed with the production fix. Greptile is 5/5
on this exact commit with no unresolved review threads. The PR is
mergeable.

Historical, source-qualified lifecycle evidence:

- Lifecycle baseline: 1,074 assertions. Native session coverage: 447
tests. Product E2E support: 515 tests. Browser support: 11 tests. Full
earlier verification is retained in the archive.
- [Real-provider campaign: 8/8 passed, zero
retries](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-35881382080-1/index.html),
source `e88d210417280140b44a36449027290adcb1aeaa`. Evidence and cleanup
checks passed. This includes deliberately exhausted repair cases that
correctly remain blocked; it does not mean every task finished Done.
This campaign predates the recovery UI change.
- Archive migration verified all 16 original JSON files byte-for-byte
and all 24 checksum entries. App tests do not need private archive
access. [Archive PR
#27](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-evals/pull/27) is merged.

## Risks

- Agents that omit durable disposition receive at most two repair
attempts by default. Prose-only completion exposes missing state rather
than silently changing scheduling.
- A retry is an explicit board action. The server rechecks current
controls. A successful response confirms the task returned to To do; it
does not claim that the provider has already started.
- Existing notice metadata remains valid. Only older active notices with
matching structured evidence receive the new UI. Historical notices
without that evidence keep their existing rendering. No schema migration
is required.
- Old run records require conservative retry accounting. Tests cover old
counters, alternating retry lanes, restarts, and exhausted repairs.
- Historical snapshots require private `paperclip-evals` access. The app
index retains public campaign links. Live campaigns qualify specific
sources and scenarios; no new real-provider campaign has run for the
recovery UI commit.

> This fixes existing lifecycle and recovery behavior and does not
duplicate planned core work.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex assisted implementation, reasoning, code
execution, and review. The exact serving model ID and context window are
not exposed in this task. Historical real-provider evaluations used
Codex model `gpt-5.6-sol`, separately from the implementation assistant.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 6bc830b62b fix(recovery): escalate an issue whose interrupted run has spent its retry budget (#14046)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The stranded-issue sweeper is what puts an assigned issue back on a
live path when its run dies.
> - A failed or interrupted run gets a bounded transient retry; when
that budget is spent, the retry scheduler queues nothing and reports the
exhaustion.
> - The sweeper treated that "nothing queued" like every other "nothing
queued" and skipped the issue, on every tick, forever: `in_progress`, no
run, no path, no notice.
> - Three server restarts in a row (a deploy storm) are enough to spend
the budget, so this is reachable in ordinary operation.
> - This pull request makes the sweeper escalate a spent budget to a
board-owned recovery action, the same visible `blocked` state its other
dead ends use.
> - The benefit is that no issue can sit assigned and silent after its
retries run out.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing issue found. Related work: #14028 (this branch's
predecessor: queue drain-time wakes, retry interrupted corrective runs)
fixed two neighbouring gaps but not this one.

**What happened?**

A routine-created issue's run was interrupted by a graceful server
shutdown, and both bounded transient retries were interrupted by the
next two shutdowns. The retry scheduler logged "Bounded retry exhausted
after 2 scheduled attempts; no further automatic retry will be queued"
and stopped. On every tick after that, `reconcileStrandedAssignedIssues`
reached the generic continuation lane, `enqueueStrandedIssueRecovery`
delegated to `scheduleRecoveryRetry`, which returned null (exhausted),
and the sweeper counted the issue as `skipped`. The issue stayed
`in_progress` with no run, no recovery action, and no comment for hours
until a person woke the agent by hand. The same hole exists in the
assigned-`todo` dispatch lane.

**Expected behavior**

When the transient retry budget for an interrupted or failed run is
spent, the sweeper should treat it as the dead end it is: escalate the
issue to `blocked` with a board-owned recovery action and a notice,
exactly as it does when a continuation retry chain or an assignment
retry chain is exhausted. Leaving the budget spent across restarts is
correct and unchanged; leaving the issue silent is not.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Assign an agent using a conversation adapter (its interrupted runs
carry `conversationContinuation`, so legacy reconciliation does not
terminalize them) an issue and let a run start.
2. Interrupt the run with a graceful shutdown, let the transient retry
start, interrupt it, and repeat once more so `scheduledRetryAttempt`
reaches 2.
3. Run the stranded-issue sweep. Before this change: `skipped` every
tick, issue `in_progress`, no run, no recovery action. After:
`escalated`, issue `blocked`, one active board-owned
`issue_recovery_actions` row, a "No live execution path" notice.

**Paperclip version or commit**

master at bd6caf51bb (2026-09-25).

**Deployment mode**

Managed cloud instance restarted by fleet deploys; the code path is the
same for any operator whose server restarts more often than the retry
budget allows.

## What Changed

- `recoveryService` gains an optional `transientRetryBudgetSpent(run)`
dependency; `heartbeatService` wires it as
`executionFailureRetryCount(run) >=
BOUNDED_TRANSIENT_HEARTBEAT_RETRY_MAX_ATTEMPTS`, the same check
`scheduleBoundedRetryForRun` applies.
- `enqueueStrandedIssueRecovery` takes an optional `outcome`
out-parameter and sets `retryExhausted` when the failed predecessor's
retry returned nothing **because** the budget is spent. A null return
without it still means another authority owns the run (native runtime,
legacy reconciliation) and the caller leaves it alone; the deliberate
"failure recovery cannot fall through into the continuation queue" rule
is unchanged.
- The generic `in_progress` continuation lane and the assigned-`todo`
dispatch lane escalate on `retryExhausted` via
`escalateStrandedAssignedIssue` with a "No live execution path" notice
(danger tone), which creates the board-owned source-scoped recovery
action and moves the issue to `blocked`. Every other
`enqueueStrandedIssueRecovery` caller is unchanged.
- Tests (`heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts`): an `in_progress` issue
with a spent budget escalates (blocked, one active board-owned action,
notice, no successor run, idempotent on the next sweep); an interrupted
run with budget remaining still gets its transient retry; an assigned
`todo` issue with a spent dispatch budget escalates. The existing guard
"does not reset an exhausted incident budget on server restart" keeps
its no-successor-run assertion and now expects the board escalation
instead of nothing, with a comment on why.

## Verification

```
pnpm -r --filter './packages/**' build
cd server
npx vitest run src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts \
  src/services/recovery/successful-run-handoff.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/heartbeat-task-drain-admission-release.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/attention-service.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/heartbeat-comment-wake-batching.test.ts
npx tsc --noEmit -p tsconfig.json
```

Live reproduction: the exact stuck state (issue `in_progress`, latest
run `interrupted` with `scheduledRetryAttempt` 2, the "Bounded retry
exhausted" lifecycle event, sweeper `skipped` every tick) was observed
on a managed instance running current master before this change was
written.

## Risks

- Behavior change is limited to runs whose transient budget is already
spent, which previously produced no action at all. Nothing new is
retried; the change only adds the escalation, so no retry loop can be
introduced.
- The board-owned action spawns no run. Resolving it (restore to the
owner) re-dispatches through the existing recovery-action routes, the
same flow as every other stranded escalation.
- Native-runtime and legacy-reconciliation predecessors are untouched:
they return before the exhaustion check.

## Model Used

Claude (Anthropic) — `claude-fable-5-1`, extended thinking, tool use
(Claude Code CLI). The incident diagnosis and the choice to escalate
rather than re-dispatch were steered by the maintainer.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 5b09d66183 fix(heartbeat): keep drain-time wakes queued and retry interrupted disposition handoffs (#14028)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The server's heartbeat scheduler queues, admits, and recovers agent
runs.
> - A control plane arms an instance task drain before it restarts the
process, so no new run starts mid-restart.
> - Two recovery paths treated that transient hold as a permanent
verdict: a wake that arrived during a drain was written as `skipped` and
never replayed, and a corrective disposition run that the restart
interrupted counted as an exhausted attempt, so the issue went to
`blocked`.
> - Both outcomes leave an assigned issue with no run and no path until
a person notices.
> - This pull request keeps drain-time wakes in the durable queue and
gives an interrupted corrective run the same bounded transient retry any
interrupted run gets.
> - The benefit is that a graceful restart never strands or blocks an
issue by itself.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing issue found. I searched open PRs that touch the task drain
(#13527 adds opt-in termination of active runs; #13965 handles deferred
wakes after a stale cancellation). Neither replays drain-time wakes or
changes the corrective-handoff escalation.

**What happened?**

1. An operator accepted a plan confirmation while the instance was in a
task drain (a control plane armed it before a deploy restart).
`enqueueWakeup` wrote the assignee's continuation wake with `status:
"skipped"` and `heartbeatSkip.reason: "task_drain"`. The drain is
process-local and cleared on the restart seconds later, but nothing
replays skipped wakes. The issue stayed in `todo` with no run for 20
hours until a person retried it by hand. The stranded-issue sweeper did
not help: a `todo` issue whose latest run succeeded is treated as
deliberately handed back.
2. On another issue, the watchdog correctly raised
`successful_run_missing_state` and queued the single corrective handoff
run. A graceful server shutdown (the same deploy restart) interrupted
that run with `server_shutdown_interrupted`. On the next boot,
`reconcileStrandedAssignedIssues` saw a corrective run at
`handoffAttempt >= maxHandoffAttempts` and escalated the issue to
`blocked` with a board-owned `missing_disposition` recovery action. The
agent never got to finish one corrective attempt.

**Expected behavior**

A task drain holds admission, not the request. A wake that arrives
during a drain must run once the drain lifts or the process restarts. An
interrupted corrective run is not evidence that the agent could not
choose a disposition; it should be retried like any interrupted run, and
escalate only when that retry budget is spent or a finished attempt
still leaves no disposition.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Assign an agent an issue and `POST /api/instance/task-drain` with a
Cloud control assertion (or call `startTaskDrain({})` in a test).
2. Trigger any wake for that agent (assignment, comment, or an accepted
`request_confirmation`).
3. Observe the `agent_wakeup_requests` row: `status = skipped`, `reason
= heartbeat.scheduling_suppressed`, `payload.heartbeatSkip.reason =
task_drain`. Stop the drain or restart: no run is ever created for that
wake.
4. For the second case: let a `finish_successful_run_handoff` run be
interrupted by SIGTERM during a graceful shutdown, then boot. The issue
moves to `blocked` on the startup sweep without any retry.

**Paperclip version or commit**

master at e2f1a66aa7 (2026-09-25).

**Deployment mode**

Managed cloud instance behind a control plane that arms task drains
before deploy restarts; the code paths are the same for any operator who
uses the drain endpoint.

## What Changed

- `enqueueWakeup` no longer writes a wake as `skipped` when the only
suppression is `task_drain`. The wake and its queued run land in the
durable queue; `startNextQueuedRunForAgent` and `executeRun` already
refuse to admit work while the drain is active, and the boot-time
`resumeQueuedRuns` pass picks it up after the restart.
`worktree_instance` and `database_restore_in_progress` suppression still
write `skipped`: those holds are not transient restarts.
- `reconcileStrandedAssignedIssues`: when the latest run is a corrective
successful-run handoff at its attempt cap **and** that run is
`interrupted`, the sweeper schedules the bounded transient retry (via
`enqueueStrandedIssueRecovery` → `scheduleRecoveryRetry`) instead of
escalating. The retry keeps the handoff context, so it is still the
corrective run. If the retry budget is spent, or a finished attempt
still leaves no disposition, escalation proceeds exactly as before.
Failed corrective runs (adapter or provider failures) are unchanged:
they still escalate immediately.
- New sweep counter `successfulRunHandoffRetried`, included in the
startup and periodic recovery log lines.
- Tests: `heartbeat-task-drain-admission-release.test.ts` gains a case
that a wake during a drain is queued, held while the drain is active
(quiescence still reports true), and runs to completion once the drain
lifts. `heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts` gains two cases: an
interrupted corrective run is retried with its handoff context and the
issue stays `in_progress`; an interrupted corrective run with a spent
transient budget escalates to `blocked` with the usual recovery action
evidence.

## Verification

```
pnpm -r --filter './packages/**' build
cd server
npx vitest run src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts            # 296 passed
npx vitest run src/__tests__/heartbeat-task-drain-admission-release.test.ts \

npx tsc --noEmit -p tsconfig.json                                           # clean
```

Live reproduction of the first defect: after this change was written, a
board wake issued against a draining managed instance (running current
master) was again recorded as `skipped` with `heartbeatSkip.reason =
task_drain`, which is the exact row the new test asserts no longer
appears.

## Risks

- A wake that lands during a drain now waits in the queue instead of
being dropped. `getTaskDrainStatus().pendingWakes` counts only in-flight
enqueue promises, so quiescence is unchanged and a control plane waiting
for the drain is not held longer. If a drain is stopped without a
restart, the queued run starts on the next scheduler tick.
- The interrupted-handoff retry reuses the existing transient retry
budget (two attempts) and the existing `hasActiveExecutionPath` skip, so
a sweep cannot double-schedule. Native-runtime corrective runs still
return `null` from the recovery enqueue and escalate as before.
- Self-hosted instances that never call the drain endpoint see no change
on the first path; the second path only changes behavior for corrective
runs interrupted by a graceful shutdown.

## Model Used

Claude (Anthropic) — `claude-fable-5-1`, extended thinking, tool use
(Claude Code CLI). Human-directed: diagnosis of the two production
incidents, the fix design, and review were steered by the maintainer.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip e2f1a66aa7 feat: support default-hidden experimental settings (#13980)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane for AI-agent companies.
> - Operators can hide settings that their users must not change.
> - The server shares the effective restrictions with the UI and
settings API.
> - An explicit list must change whenever a new experimental flag is
added.
> - This pull request adds a wildcard with named exceptions to the
existing setting.
> - Core applies the policy to its current catalog, so new flags stay
hidden automatically.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #11823 introduced settings visibility. #13907 added workspace
isolation visibility. I searched related PRs and issues and found no
duplicate wildcard implementation.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Operator control of experimental setting visibility through
`PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS`.

**Subsystem affected**

Shared settings policy and its existing server health and mutation
consumers.

**Current behavior**

Operators must name every hidden experimental toggle. A new Core flag
can become visible until the operator updates that list.

**Proposed behavior**

`instance.experimental.*` hides current and future experimental toggles.
Entries such as `!instance.experimental.enableEnvironments` leave named
controls available. Explicit hidden keys and the hidden parent page take
precedence over exceptions.

**Reason and benefit**

Operators can maintain a short list of allowed controls instead of a
second copy of Core's full feature catalog.

**Breaking changes**

Existing explicit lists and unset configuration keep their behavior. The
new syntax is opt-in. Older images ignore it, so operators must retain
explicit restrictions until those images are upgraded. Visibility does
not change feature values.

## What Changed

- Expand the wildcard into concrete catalog keys in the shared parser.
- Limit exceptions to known experimental controls and preserve explicit
restrictions in either input order.
- Test a synthetic future catalog addition, duplicate and invalid
entries, API rejection, same-value echoes, and the effective health
payload.
- Document the syntax and the transition for deployments with mixed
image versions.

## Verification

- Targeted parser, future-catalog, health, and settings-route tests
pass: 95 tests across four files.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passes, including Rust checks, with the installed
Cargo directory on PATH.
- `pnpm build` passes.
- All current-head CI gates pass, including the full test shards, Rust,
build, browser E2E, and canary dry run:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36083292578. One
unchanged runtime-exposure cold-start test passed on its first retry.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` did not pass on macOS/Node 25: the
first server group reported 13,356 passed, 18 failed, and 99 skipped,
with six failed files (including two failed suite setups). Failures were
in unchanged runtime/company skill cache, chat/email connector fixtures,
embedded-Postgres setup, and workspace cleanup tests. A standalone
filesystem probe reproduced the read-only-directory rename permission
failure. Missing connector fixture paths, database startup failures, and
two integration assertions also occurred; the remaining local groups
were not reached after this group failed. The corresponding CI lanes all
pass. These local failures are not claimed as fixed by this PR.
- Browser suites were not run because this changes the shared policy,
not UI rendering or browser workflows. Health payload and route tests
cover the shared UI/API contract.

## Risks

A malformed exception remains hidden and is reported as unknown.
Exceptions cannot override an explicit hidden toggle or parent page.
Older images ignore wildcard syntax; keep their explicit list during a
mixed-version rollout. No schema or feature-value changes are included.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. The exact runtime variant and context-window size are not
exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 1dbffb4c04 fix(daytona): clean up sandbox allocation after create failure (#13979)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their execution environments.
> - The Daytona provider creates sandboxes before it returns a lease.
> - Daytona can allocate a sandbox, then time out while waiting for it
to start.
> - The SDK throws without returning the allocated sandbox handle.
> - Paperclip previously lost the resource identity and could leave a
running sandbox behind.
> - This pull request keeps an exact creation identity and deletes a
matching failed allocation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #13882. Searches for Daytona create cleanup and orphan fixes
found no duplicate for this path.

**What happened?**

In [Grok qualification campaign
36080870743](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36080870743),
Daytona sandbox creation exceeded 300 seconds. No native runner or
provider session started. The SDK threw, but an ownership-filtered
provider lookup found the allocated sandbox still running. The
disposable resource was then deleted separately. The original attempt
and its failure remain retained.

**Expected behavior**

A failed create must retain enough identity to clean up an allocated
sandbox. Cleanup must never delete another attempt's resource. If the
provider cannot confirm cleanup during sandbox lease acquisition, the
host must retain a durable cleanup record and retry the exact owned
allocation after restart.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Have Daytona allocate a sandbox for an environment acquisition.
2. Make the SDK throw while waiting for startup, before it returns the
sandbox handle.
3. Before this fix, acquisition fails without deleting the allocated
sandbox.
4. The regression tests reproduce this failure and verify exact-owner
deletion.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Observed at `1b0551bb7c8de3c54f4bee64dbe2c88328b3645e`. The same
creation path exists on master; this fix starts from `efce9356b`.

## What Changed

- Assign each cold create a unique provider name and creation-attempt
label.
- On create failure, look up that exact name and verify every ownership
label before deletion.
- Wait for provider deletion with bounded lookup and deletion calls.
- Preserve the original create error after successful cleanup. Report
both errors and the provider name when cleanup cannot be confirmed.
- Treat a missing lookup after an uncertain create as unconfirmed
cleanup: a delayed provider request might still create the sandbox.
- Transfer only validated ownership fields through the acquire-lease RPC
error; provider exceptions and arbitrary error data are not serialized.
- Persist a pending-cleanup lease before the host retries deletion.
Reuse the existing cleanup sweep and durable spool, retaining the
original environment scope after its row is deleted.
- Fence retries by company, environment, run, provider account, unique
creation name, and every ownership label. Missing provisional-name
lookups remain unresolved.
- Journal an ownership-verified provider ID before host-driven deletion.
Its absence then confirms cleanup after a lost deletion reply or final
database update; failed journal writes block deletion.
- Keep ownership labels separate from the mutable input Daytona modifies
during create.
- Report confirmed host-side deletion accurately while still rejecting
the failed acquisition.
- Add protocol, malformed-evidence, cross-scope denial,
controller-restart, and deleted-environment regressions alongside the
original bounded cleanup tests.

## Verification

- SDK suite: 92 passed. Daytona plugin suite: 277 passed; six opt-in
live tests skipped. Environment-runtime suite: 103 passed, then all four
focused observation/recovery variants passed after adding a
foreign-observation case. SDK and provider TypeScript checks and `git
diff --check` pass.
- Regressions failed before the respective fixes: missing durable
ownership, misleading successful-cleanup message, and SDK mutation of
the ownership labels.
- Controlled real-Daytona proof at
`d2ac1c95b32ca64daf039c0427137657f351c0e0`: create a real sandbox;
inject an SDK failure and a failed immediate lookup; persist the
validated ownership envelope; have a child journal the observed provider
ID before deleting; deliberately drop its successful deletion receipt;
reconcile absence from another fresh process and confirm it with a
separate provider read. Passed, with no manual cleanup and zero model
calls. The live proof uses an owner-only envelope file; actual host
database/spool recovery is tested separately in the environment-runtime
suite.
- The preceding controlled attempt failed because the real SDK mutated
the labels object. That failure is retained. The harness deleted its
exact owned sandbox, and a fresh lookup confirmed absence. The fix
copies the SDK input labels separately from the ownership snapshot.
- [Repository
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36095925399)
passes on this exact head, with a clean 5/5 review. The unchanged Cursor
remote-command test passed its one bounded rerun after a 10-second
timeout; the same test had already passed on the combined tree. The
original failure is retained. Earlier `199f0852` CI and
immediate-deletion proof are retained, without being promoted to the new
source.
- Combined-source verification uses temporary PR #13990 against the Grok
feature branch. No Docker or Rust build runs on the developer laptop.

## Risks

Creation failures now add up to ten seconds for lookup and fifteen
seconds for deletion confirmation. The SDK still owns the initial
creation timeout. If a request materializes only after the failed
lookup, its durable pending record remains eligible for later cleanup; a
never-observed creation name is never reported deleted from a 404. A
previously observed provider ID can be reconciled as deleted. The host
and SDK must be deployed together. Durable handoff applies to
plugin-backed sandbox lease acquisition used by heartbeat and runner
login. Probe and custom-image interactive setup retain immediate cleanup
and explicit failure reporting, but do not use this lease-recovery path.
A worker crash before delivering the failure envelope still cannot be
recovered through this mechanism. A cleanup error never returns a lease.
Successful creation behavior is unchanged except for the provider name
and ownership label.

DottaandPaperclip c96c751f39 fix(heartbeat): claim task ownership with queued runs (#13973)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their tasks.
> - The scheduler can start several runs for one agent.
> - Each task still needs one execution owner.
> - Task creation and recovery can queue assignments for the same task.
> - The scheduler previously marked both runs running before starting
either executor.
> - This change claims the run and task ownership in one transaction.
> - Tasks with different IDs retain concurrent execution.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13882. Related queue work: #11830 and #13965; those address
different admission and cancellation paths.

**What happened?**

The Grok subscription Product campaign exposed two assignment runs for
one task. Task creation and periodic recovery started runs within 200
ms. Both acquired Daytona sandboxes. One failed before provider work
with `paperclip_runner_attachment_staging_not_authorized` because the
other owned the task. Fixture cleanup then found an active session. The
original failed result is retained in [campaign
36071063537](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36071063537).

**Expected behavior**

Only the task execution owner may start provider setup. Competing queued
work must wait. Different tasks may use the agent's available slots.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Set an agent's concurrent run limit to two.
2. Queue task-creation and recovery assignment runs for the same task.
3. Resume the queue while holding adapter execution open.
4. Before this fix, both runs become running. Only one has the task
execution lock.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master `8781f06a8` and in the Grok campaign at `4196a4cd`.

## What Changed

- Use the same company-scoped task ownership gate for assignments,
direct comments, and queued comments.
- Leave competing work queued while another live run owns the task.
Transfer a terminal pointer only after the tracked executor and durable
environment leases/finalization settle, including cleanup on another
controller.
- Commit the running state and task execution owner together.
- Preserve the dedicated review path and the native replacement checkout
guard.
- Add sixteen database regressions for assignment/comment orderings,
unrelated concurrent tasks, and cross-controller cleanup fences.

## Verification

- Live subscription Product E2E planning passed on its first attempt in
both Daytona (351,197 ms) and local execution (268,883 ms), with 6/6
matchers and cleanup passing in each, on combined source
`1b0551bb7c8de3c54f4bee64dbe2c88328b3645e`
([campaign](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36080870743)).
The local screenshots and persisted state show the same plan revised,
the first approval rejected, the revised approval accepted, and one
completion. The full campaign remains unqualified because of a separate
startup retry and EC2 Spot interruption.
- The new same-task regression failed before the fix: two running rows
instead of one.
- All seven focused concurrency cases passed. Three comment cases failed
before the shared gate was added. Five cross-controller cleanup cases
failed before the durable gate was added. A warm-retention regression
also failed before its successful release receipt was admitted;
missing/failed receipts and a different retention policy stay blocked.
- `node ../node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-stale-queue-invalidation.test.ts` from `server`:
48 passed. Native cleanup admission adds one passing test; task-drain
release adds two. Total focused checks: 51 passed.
- `git diff --check`: passed.
- Current-head
[CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36078495577)
passes repository typecheck, tests, Rust checks, build, and browser
suites. The unrelated repository-form browser shard passed one bounded
rerun without assertion or code changes; its original navigation failure
remains retained. No local Docker or Rust build was used.
- The failed test's exact two sandboxes were checked: one was already
absent; the other was deleted after its company, environment, and run
labels matched.

## Risks

The claim transaction adds a task row lock. It follows task-before-run
lock order. A competing run stays queued until the current owner
releases the task. The change does not alter attachment authorization,
provider permissions, schemas, or public APIs. Review is 5/5 with all
threads resolved on `23c0d13b6`. All CI checks pass on that exact head.
Live Grok requalification will use the combined runner and scheduler
source.

### Live regression verification

The Daytona plan/revise/accept lifecycle in [Grok campaign
36080870743](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36080870743)
passed on its first attempt at combined source
`1b0551bb7c8de3c54f4bee64dbe2c88328b3645e`, in 351,197 ms, with all six
outcome matchers and cleanup passing. The earlier competing-run failure
remains retained. This is one live planning result; the complete Grok
matrix and repeated qualification are separate gates, and this campaign
also has separately retained infrastructure failures.

DottaandPaperclip 8781f06a87 feat(connections): enable MCP aggregators by default (#13964)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip helps people manage AI agents for work.
> - Connections let those agents use external services with explicit
access rules.
> - Zapier, Arcade, Composio Connect, and Executor already have setup
and runtime support.
> - Their experimental switch still blocks discovery and setup by
default.
> - This pull request removes those gates and the Settings toggle.
> - Users can connect these providers without enabling an experiment.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13755. Refs #13941.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Apps browsing, inline setup, and agent connection search for the four
MCP aggregators.

**Current behavior**
An instance must enable the MCP aggregators experiment before users or
agents can start setup.

**Proposed behavior**
All four providers are available by default on local and managed
instances. Old stored and managed values still parse but cannot disable
them.

## What Changed

- Remove the aggregator gates from Apps, inline setup, server setup, and
agent search.
- Remove the Settings toggle and its UI hook.
- Retain the old setting key only for upgrade compatibility. Normalize
it to true and ignore managed overrides, as Apps already does.
- Replace opt-in fixtures with default-on coverage. Test old false
values, all four setup flows, provider choice, and the removed toggle.
- Update current connector guidance and remove the opt-in from the
runner acceptance fixture.

## Verification

- 306 focused tests passed across eight files: shared remote MCP
contracts; server remote MCP lifecycle, aggregator fallback, settings
normalization, and managed overlay; UI Apps browsing, setup, and
experimental settings.
- Server and UI TypeScript checks passed.
- UI token gates and `git diff --check` passed.
- The full local suite was not run, per the maintainer's instruction.
All 54 CI checks passed; two checks were skipped. One unrelated
workspace-preview readiness timeout passed on one failed-shard retry.
- The setup fixtures use simulated MCP responses. This change does not
claim new live provider acceptance.

## Risks

- Existing instances now show all four providers, even if the old flag
was false. This is intentional.
- External provider choice, credentials, company isolation, agent
grants, and tool policies still apply. Showing a connector does not
authorize an external account.
- No data migration is required. The compatibility key keeps old managed
configuration documents valid.
- Historical Zapier live acceptance remains incomplete in the existing
evidence report. The maintainer explicitly requested the default-on
rollout for all four existing providers; the report records that scoped
exception.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 (`gpt-6-astra`) through Codex, with reasoning, repository
tools, and test execution. The context window size is not exposed in
this session.

DottaandPaperclip aa8fc86331 feat(connections): prefer native apps and ask users to choose external providers (#13941)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections give agents governed access to external services.
> - Native connections should remain the first choice for a supported
app.
> - Other apps may be available through an external MCP provider.
> - The user must know which external provider handles the connection
and choose it before setup.
> - This pull request adds ranked alternatives and server-authored
instructions to connection search.
> - Agents can follow the returned instructions while Paperclip
validates saved choices and access.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #13879, which fixed inline MCP provider setup. This PR adds
discovery and provider selection on top of that work.

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: shared connection contracts, server search and intent
services, native runtime, CLI, inline setup UI, and evals.

**Problem or motivation**

An agent cannot offer a clear external-provider choice when Paperclip
has no native connection for an app. Adding provider-specific branches
to the core prompt would make those instructions harder to maintain.

**Proposed solution**

Prefer a native connection. Otherwise return verified alternatives in
Composio, Arcade, Executor, Zapier order. Include an external-service
disclosure, a question with None, and the next instruction in the search
result. Validate the saved human choice before creating a selected
fallback setup card. Reuse existing provider accounts and verify
underlying app access separately.

**Alternatives considered**

Do not silently choose a provider. Do not claim that broad execution
tools prove support for every app. Reuse existing questions and
connection intents rather than add another connection model.

**Roadmap alignment**

Extends the existing MCP Tool Gateway & Apps and Agent evals & feedback
capabilities. The MCP aggregators experiment remains the gate. No
duplicate provider-routing PR was found in the public search.

## What Changed

- Add a dated support index and authorized cached-tool evidence for
external routes.
- Return provider questions and next-step instructions from
`connections_search`.
- Preserve pending choices and declines across continuation. Validate
company, task, agent, human, app, and current route eligibility.
- Carry the selected app into new setup and account reuse, validate
explicit provider requests against persisted human messages, and
distinguish provider readiness from app authorization.
- Sync native, MCP, REST, and CLI contracts. Keep core agent
instructions provider-neutral.
- Add production-component Storybooks, focused database tests, and three
real-agent browser eval cases.
- Record the plan, observed failures, fixes, passing evidence, and
acceptance limits.

## Verification

- Latest head `586f0e6cd`: 54 checks passed, 2 skipped; Greptile 5/5 and
all review threads resolved.

- After rebasing on master `18dac1e1e`: 64 focused shared, validator,
route-contract, and database tests passed; server typecheck passed.
- Embedded-browser test drive on the rebased head: native Jira card,
HubSpot external-provider question, Arcade account reuse, one actual MCP
read against a local synthetic fixture, reload persistence, and None
preventing further calls. A real OpenAI-backed agent performed discovery
and continuation.
- UX observation: the agent initially combined mutually exclusive
request fields; the server rejected it and the agent recovered without
changing access. This extra retry remains visible in the transcript.
- After rebase: 23 focused eval grader/catalog tests, affected
TypeScript checks, token gates, production UI build, and Storybook build
passed. Full local tests are intentionally excluded at the maintainer's
request.
- Before rebase: four browser/real-agent attempts passed: native Jira,
None, and reuse of the second provider on two Codex profiles.
- Browser evals used an isolated deterministic MCP fixture through the
real Paperclip gateway. They do not prove production compatibility with
all four providers.
- Review `Apps / Connections / Provider choice` in Storybook. Choose
Arcade, continue through Access, and verify the app name,
external-service disclosure, and URL configuration.
- The detailed verification report is
`doc/connections/2026-09-23-aggregator-routing-verification.md`.

## Risks

- The public support index is finite and can age. Account capability and
app authorization still require verification after selection.
- Existing installed-tool permissions remain in effect. Provider choice
is not a new execution permission boundary. An early Mini attempt
skipped search; clearer provider-neutral instructions made the targeted
rerun pass. This is not a measured reliability rate.
- Explicit requests skip provider confirmation only when a clear
persisted human message or saved provider choice supports them. Other
phrasing falls back to confirmation; the agent query alone is not
consent. These routes do not add tool permissions.
- No database migration or legacy Composio broker is added.
Real-provider acceptance remains separate from fixture proof.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser tools. The exact deployment variant and
context-window size are not exposed in this session. Product evals
separately used the repository's primary Codex and Codex Mini profiles;
those agents supplied test behavior, not independent provider
compatibility proof.

DottaandPaperclip 18dac1e1ef feat(connections): add experimental memory providers and remote MCP access (#13942)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Connections give agents governed access to external tools.
> - Agents need durable memory across tasks and execution environments.
> - Mem0, Zep, Supermemory, Cognee, and Honcho provide hosted memory
tools.
> - This pull request adds their setup flows behind an experimental
toggle.
> - It also delivers assigned MCP tools through the native remote Codex
runner.
> - Operators can connect a provider once and use the same governed
tools locally or in Daytona.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

The Apps catalog lacks a complete set of memory providers. Remote native
Codex agents also need access to assigned managed MCP tools without
receiving provider credentials.

**Proposed solution**

Add five memory connectors behind the disabled-by-default Experimental
memory connectors setting. Use the existing connection setup and
permissions UI. Default their tools to Allowed. Preserve company
boundaries, operator permission changes, provider scopes, and audit
attribution.

**Alternatives considered**

Direct provider credentials in each sandbox would duplicate setup and
bypass the managed gateway. The remote runner instead uses its existing
protocol channel to call the gateway on the server.

**Roadmap alignment**

This maintainer-requested experiment supports the Memory / Knowledge and
Connected Apps roadmap areas. It adds provider connections without
introducing a separate memory UI. Related connector authoring
documentation is tracked in #13692; no duplicate memory-provider
implementation was found.

## What Changed

- Add provider definitions, official branding, and the experimental
setting for all five providers.
- Use OAuth for Zep and Supermemory, API credentials for Mem0 and
Honcho, and a bundled Cloud API bridge for Cognee with no runtime
downloads or subprocesses.
- Default memory tools to Allowed and classify destructive actions
explicitly.
- Fix personal remote credential resolution and propagate provider tool
errors.
- Relay assigned managed MCP tools to remote native Codex through the
runner protocol. Recheck current authority for each call and rotate
stale tool contracts.
- Add 21 Storybook states and complete OAuth walkthrough fixtures.
- Document provider research, sanitized tool inventory, and live local
and Daytona proof.

## Verification

- Passed workspace typecheck: `pnpm -r typecheck`.
- Passed production build: `pnpm build`.
- Full local `pnpm test:run`: 13,273 passed, with failures from
process/readiness timeouts under parallel load. Reran all 16 affected
suites with one worker: 456 passed, leaving two macOS `/var` versus
`/private/var` path assertions. Both passed with `TMPDIR=/private/tmp`.
No test failures remain unverified. Latest-head remote CI passes all 54
checks (two optional Storybook jobs skipped). Greptile is 5/5 with no
unresolved findings.
- Latest Cognee gateway regression: 71 passed, including public
deployment without a runtime host and immediate recovery after a
provider error. Bundled bridge tests: 25 passed.
- Browser setup and real agent tasks exercised all five providers. Mem0,
Cognee, Zep, and Honcho have successful store/retrieve proof.
- Supermemory now has scoped read/write consent. Local storage and real
Daytona write, document read, and semantic recall passed; indexing
completion was verified before claiming success.
- All five providers were exercised through a real Daytona sandbox and
its native runner MCP relay. Provider credentials remained on the
server. The final bundled Cognee bridge also passed a fresh Daytona
store/recall run. All disposable sandboxes were removed and verified
absent after testing.
- Storybook is rebuilt and contains the experimental toggle, catalog,
setup, permissions, and error states. The Zep and Supermemory access
steps advance correctly.

## Risks

- Provider OAuth scopes and plan limits remain independent of Paperclip
tool permissions. An Allowed tool can still be rejected by the provider.
- Providers can queue memory indexing; save acceptance does not prove
that semantic recall is ready.
- Remote tool contracts must stay synchronized with current connection
authority. Regression tests cover revocation and stale contracts.
- This change has no database migration. Existing connections remain
usable when the experimental catalog toggle is disabled.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 Astra (`gpt-6-astra`), with reasoning, repository
edits, code execution, and browser automation. The exact context window
size is not exposed in this session. Live acceptance agents used
`gpt-5.6-sol`.
