Devin Foley 6601014898 fix(release): reject promotion sources that predate their channel tooling (#11197)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The release subsystem promotes builds along canary → nightly → beta
→ stable, and each publish job checks out the promotion's source commit
and runs that tree's release tooling
> - The first beta dispatch failed with `unexpected argument: beta`: the
selected nightly's source predated the beta channel, so its `release.sh`
did not know the argument
> - The failure was clean (argument parsing, nothing published) but
cryptic, and the same trap waits for any promotion of a source older
than its target channel's tooling
> - This pull request makes the selection jobs reject such sources with
an actionable error and documents the property
> - The benefit is that a bootstrapping or old-source promotion fails in
seconds with instructions, instead of mid-publish with a parser error

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #11008 — the guard hardens the beta promotion flow introduced
there, after its first dispatch surfaced the gap described below.

**Subsystem affected**

Release automation: `.github/workflows/release.yml`, `doc/RELEASING.md`,
workflow wiring tests.

**Problem or motivation**

Run 31444045044 (first beta dispatch) failed in `publish_beta` with
`unexpected argument: beta`. Promotions deliberately build from the
pinned source commit, which means they also run that commit's
`scripts/release.sh` — and a source that predates the target channel's
introduction cannot publish it. Nothing guards this today; the error
surfaces deep in the publish job with no explanation.

**Proposed solution**

Guard at selection time: `select_nightly` requires the source canary's
`release.sh` to know the nightly channel, and `select_beta` requires the
source nightly's `release.sh` to know the beta channel. Each guard
literally matches the channel case arm and fails closed with a clear
message naming the remedy (promote a newer source). Document the
tooling-era property in `RELEASING.md` and pin the guards with a wiring
test.

## What Changed

- `.github/workflows/release.yml`: tooling-era guards in
`select_nightly` and `select_beta`
- `doc/RELEASING.md`: documents that promotions run the source commit's
release tooling
- `scripts/__tests__/release-verify-workflow.test.mjs`: wiring test
pinning both guards

## Verification

- Wiring tests: 5 pass
- Guard expressions exercised against real commits: accepts the
beta-capable merge commit of the beta-channel change, rejects a pre-beta
commit
- YAML parse of the workflow
- After merge: the next beta dispatch selects a beta-capable nightly and
passes the guard

## Risks

- Low. Selection-time check only; the guards match the channel case arm
literally and fail closed (with the same actionable message) if that
line is ever reformatted

Devin Foley 35aaaa0bd0 feat(server): preserve task timestamps and hierarchy through company import/export (#11193)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Company export/import moves a whole company — agents, tasks,
comments — between instances as a portable bundle
> - The bundle never carried task timestamps or parent links: the export
writes neither, the importer lets database defaults stamp "now", and
sub-tasks arrive flattened
> - Boards sort by recency, so every imported task showing "created just
now" collapses the task list into import order, and the task hierarchy
the user built is gone
> - This pull request adds created/updated/started/completed/cancelled
timestamps and a parent link to the bundle (schema v7), preserves them
end to end on import, and keeps comment imports from clobbering a
preserved updated time
> - The benefit is that an imported company reads like the company the
user left: same recency order, same task tree

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

After a company import, every task showed as created at import time.
Recency sorting collapsed to import order, and parent/child task nesting
disappeared. The user called out losing "the meaningful task hierarchy
and recency sorting". Cause: the export bundle has no fields for task
timestamps or parent links, the importer lets `defaultNow()` win on
insert, and the comment importer bumps every touched task's `updatedAt`
to now.

**Expected behavior**

An imported company preserves each task's
creation/update/start/completion times and its position in the task
tree, so sorting and nesting on the destination match the source.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. On a source instance, create tasks over several days, including
sub-tasks nested under parents.
2. Export the company and import it into another instance.
3. Every task shows the import moment as its creation/update time and
all tasks are top-level.

## What Changed

- Export writes
`createdAt`/`updatedAt`/`startedAt`/`completedAt`/`cancelledAt` (ISO,
only when set) and `parent: <taskSlug>` into each task's bundle
extension; a parent outside the export selection drops the edge with an
aggregate warning, mirroring the existing blocker-edge warning
(`server/src/services/company-portability.ts`).
- Bundle schema version 6 → 7. All new fields are optional: v5/v6
bundles import unchanged with a version-aware downlevel warning; bundles
newer than the board still fail closed.
- Manifest parsing validates the new timestamps like comment timestamps
(invalid → warn and ignore, never a hard failure); shared types and the
zod validator carry the new optional fields.
- Import resolves parent slugs to pre-generated destination ids, drops
self-references and cycles from tampered bundles with warnings, and
orders rows parents-first because the self-referencing FK is checked per
insert chunk.
- `importIssues` writes the preserved timestamps (falling back to insert
time when absent; `startedAt` stays null unless bundle-carried, per
#11191's semantics) and `parentId`.
- `addImportedComments` no longer blanket-bumps `updatedAt = now()`; it
takes `GREATEST(updated_at, newest imported comment createdAt)`, so a
preserved update time never regresses while unpreserved rows keep the
old behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability-import-batching.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/productivity-review-service.test.ts` — 102 passed,
1 pre-existing opt-in benchmark skip. Includes: full round-trip with
exact timestamp equality and a 3-deep parent chain against embedded
Postgres; v6 back-compat (defaults + warning); forward-compat rejection
(v8); cycle/self-reference/invalid-timestamp tampered-bundle handling;
comment-bump preserve-awareness in both directions.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` and `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/shared typecheck` — clean.

## Risks

- **Rollout ordering**: a board on the previous build (max schema v6)
refuses bundles exported by this build (stamped v7) — the existing
newer-than-supported rejection, working as designed. Cross-instance
moves need the importing board upgraded first. Called out here so
operators aren't surprised during the transition window.
- Parent edges from tampered bundles are dropped with warnings rather
than failing the import; blocker relations already behave this way.
- Timestamps are data-only; no destination schema migration.

Stacked on #11191 (its commit is included here) — merge #11191 first;
this PR then shows only the v7 changes.

Devin Foley 4c062a0eb2 fix(ui): stop coercing imported agents to the destination CEO adapter (#11192)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Company import lets an operator bring a package of agents into an
instance, and each agent declares which adapter runs it (Claude Code,
Codex, and so on)
> - The export and the server importer preserve each agent's adapter
faithfully, but the Import page seeds an adapter override for every
agent with the destination CEO's adapter before the user touches
anything
> - Every imported agent therefore arrives as the CEO's adapter (usually
Claude Code) even when the source package holds a mix, and the picker
shows the coerced value as if it were the source's, so nothing looks
wrong
> - This pull request makes the manifest adapter the default, sends
overrides only for agents the user actually changed, and replaces the
silent coercion with an explicit per-agent fallback warning when the
destination truly lacks the source adapter
> - The benefit is that a mixed Claude/Codex team imports as a mixed
Claude/Codex team, and any real adapter gap is visible instead of silent

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A user imported a company package whose agents were a mix of Claude Code
and Codex on the source instance. After the import, every agent was
configured as Claude Code. The import preview showed no sign that
anything had been changed. Cause: the Import page initializes its
adapter-override map by assigning every agent the destination CEO's
adapter type and sends that override for every agent, overriding the
manifest's per-agent adapter server-side. For imports into a new
company, the "CEO adapter" is read from whichever unrelated company is
currently selected.

**Expected behavior**

Imported agents keep the adapter declared in the package. An override is
sent only when the operator explicitly picks a different adapter, or
when the source adapter is not installed on the destination — and in
that case the page must say so per agent, not silently substitute.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. On a source instance, create a company with one Claude Code agent and
one Codex agent, and export it.
2. Import the package on another instance whose CEO uses Claude Code,
changing nothing in the import dialog.
3. Both agents arrive configured as Claude Code; the Codex identity is
gone.

## What Changed

- The preview no longer seeds adapter overrides; the override map starts
empty, and the picker displays each agent's manifest adapter
(`ui/src/pages/CompanyImport.tsx`).
- `buildFinalAdapterOverrides` sends an entry only when the effective
adapter differs from the manifest or the agent's adapter config was
edited — untouched agents flow through with no override.
- The page fetches the destination's installed adapters (existing
`adaptersApi.list()` client). When a manifest adapter is missing or
disabled on the destination, only that agent defaults to the CEO's
adapter, with a visible amber warning naming both adapters. If the
adapters request fails, the page fails open: manifest adapters are kept
and no coercion happens.
- Tests: untouched mixed-adapter import sends no overrides; a
user-changed agent sends exactly one; a missing destination adapter
produces the fallback plus rendered warning for that agent only; an
adapters-endpoint failure produces no coercion.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run ui/src/pages/CompanyImport.test.tsx` — 19 passed (15
pre-existing + 4 new).
- `pnpm --filter ./ui typecheck` (`tsc -b`) — clean.

## Risks

- Behavior change: users who previously relied on the silent conversion
(importing packages that reference adapters they don't have) now get an
explicit per-agent fallback with a warning — same outcome, visible. The
server's hard rejection of unknown adapter types remains the backstop
for API callers.
- UI-only change; no server or schema impact.

Devin Foley d816eb8095 fix(server): keep imported tasks quiescent under the productivity review sweep (#11191)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Company import brings a full company package — agents, tasks,
routines — into an instance, with `pauseAutomations` promising a quiet
landing
> - The pause covers the imported entities, but the destination's own
productivity-review sweep does not know the difference between imported
rows and live work
> - The importer stamps every imported in-progress task with `startedAt
= now()`, so six hours later the sweep's long-active check fires on
every one of them and floods the board with review tasks and agent
wakeups
> - This pull request stops fabricating `startedAt` on import and makes
the sweep skip tasks whose assignee agent is paused
> - The benefit is that an import lands quietly: no surprise review-task
storm, and paused teams stay paused until the operator activates them

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

After importing a company package with automations paused, a batch of
"productivity review" tasks appeared roughly six hours later — one for
every imported in-progress task — each with an owner-agent wakeup. The
user described it as jarring and wasteful. Cause: `importIssues`
fabricates `startedAt = now()` for imported in-progress rows, and
`reconcileProductivityReviews` considers any assigned in-progress task
without checking whether the assignee agent is paused, so its
long-active-duration evidence (6 h threshold) trips on the fabricated
timestamp.

**Expected behavior**

An import with paused automations must be quiescent: no destination
sweep should generate work from imported rows until the operator
unpauses the imported team. A paused agent must not accumulate review
tasks it cannot act on.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Import a company package containing tasks with status `in_progress`
assigned to agents, with "pause automations" enabled.
2. Wait for the productivity-review reconcile (runs at startup and on
the heartbeat scheduler tick) more than six hours after the import.
3. Observe one new review task plus an owner wakeup per imported
in-progress task.

## What Changed

- `importIssues` no longer fabricates `startedAt` for imported
`in_progress` rows; it inserts null (`server/src/services/issues.ts`).
Audited every consumer of `issues.startedAt` — all are null-tolerant,
and normal checkout/status-transition paths set the value when work
really starts.
- `reconcileProductivityReviews` skips candidates whose assignee agent
is `paused`, counting them as skipped
(`server/src/services/productivity-review.ts`). This is a general rule,
not import-specific: a paused agent cannot act on a review.
- Tests: paused-assignee candidate with an old `startedAt` creates no
review, and creates one after unpausing; imported in-progress issue
lands with null `startedAt` (embedded-Postgres import test); the
pre-existing long-active regression test still passes.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/productivity-review-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability-import-batching.test.ts` — 20
passed, 1 pre-existing opt-in benchmark skip.
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts` —
78 passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — clean.

## Risks

- Behavior change beyond imports: tasks assigned to paused agents no
longer receive productivity reviews anywhere. This is intended — the
review would target an agent that cannot respond — and reviews resume on
the first reconcile after unpausing.
- Imported in-progress tasks now carry no `startedAt` until real work
starts on the destination. The one sweep that read the fabricated value
is the one this PR quiets; all other consumers fall back safely (audit
in the commit body).
- Low risk otherwise: no schema change, no API shape change.

Devin Foley 8f7b8b3fda feat(release): add human-gated beta channel with stable soak enforcement (#11008)
> Follow-up to #11006 (merged): rebased onto master and ready for
review.

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The release subsystem now publishes canary (every master push),
nightly (scheduled, smoke-gated, added in #11006), and stable (manual)
> - There is still no human-approved release-candidate lane between
nightly and stable, and nothing enforces that a stable actually soaked
anywhere before shipping
> - Betas need a real approval gate, and stables need a soak policy that
is data, not prose
> - This pull request adds the beta channel: a manual promotion of a
chosen nightly behind the `npm-beta` environment gate, re-smoked after
publish, plus a stable preflight that enforces a 3-day beta soak with a
written-justification bypass
> - The benefit is a complete canary → nightly → beta → stable train
where every stable shipped as a beta first, and emergencies leave a
written trace

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Release automation: `scripts/release.sh`, `scripts/release-lib.sh`,
`.github/workflows/release.yml`, `.github/workflows/docker.yml`,
`.github/workflows/release-smoke.yml`.

**Problem or motivation**

After #11006 the project has canary and nightly prerelease lanes, but no
release-candidate lane. Stable promotion has no enforced soak: any ref
can ship as stable directly. There is no approval boundary for a
broader-audience prerelease, and no structured way to record why an
emergency release skipped validation.

**Proposed solution**

Add a `beta` channel: a manual dispatch that promotes a chosen nightly's
source commit, publishes behind the `npm-beta` GitHub environment
(required reviewers are the gate), re-smokes the published beta, and
tags `beta/vX`. Enforce in the stable path that the source commit
shipped as a beta at least 3 days earlier (measured from the beta's npm
publish time), with a `skip_soak_justification` input as the recorded
emergency bypass.

**Alternatives considered**

Codifying the soak policy in docs only. Rejected: an unenforced policy
decays; the preflight makes the policy executable while the
justification input keeps the emergency path usable and auditable.

## What Changed

- `scripts/release.sh` + `scripts/release-lib.sh`: `beta` channel —
requires HEAD to carry a `nightly/v*` tag, publishes the package set as
`YYYY.MDD.P-beta.N` under dist-tag `beta`, tags
`beta/vYYYY.MDD.P-beta.N`
- `.github/workflows/release.yml`:
- `channel: beta` dispatch path: `select_beta` resolves the newest (or
an explicit `source_version`) nightly and fails loudly on selection
problems; `publish_beta` runs behind the `npm-beta` environment, pushes
the tag, and dispatches `docker.yml`; `smoke_beta` re-runs the release
smoke suite against the exact published beta version
- stable path: new `preflight_stable` job enforces the 3-day beta soak
from the beta's npm publish time; `skip_soak_justification` bypasses
with the reason echoed into the job summary; dry runs report without
blocking
- `.github/workflows/docker.yml`: `beta/v*` tags publish `:beta` on both
images, with exact version stamping
- `.github/workflows/release-smoke.yml`: `beta` added to the dispatch
choice list
- Docs: `CHANNELS.md` beta entries; `RELEASING.md` beta lane, soak gate,
and failure playbook; `RELEASE-AUTOMATION-SETUP.md` `npm-beta`
environment setup, including the warning to create the environment
before the first beta dispatch (GitHub auto-creates unprotected
environments on first reference)
- Tests: beta version-counting coverage in
`scripts/release-registry-versions.test.mjs`; beta identity and
nightly-tag guard coverage in
`scripts/__tests__/release-dry-run-notes.test.mjs`

## Verification

- `node --test` on the two touched suites: 17 pass, including the 3 new
beta tests
- `bash -n` on both shell scripts and YAML parse of all three workflows
- After merge, in order: create the `npm-beta` environment, dispatch
`channel: beta` with `dry_run: true` to preview, then a real promotion
of a published nightly through the approval gate, then a stable dry-run
against a young beta to see the soak gate report

## Risks

- If the `npm-beta` environment does not exist when the first beta
dispatch runs, GitHub creates it with no protection rules and the beta
publishes without approval. Mitigated by documentation and by creating
the environment before merge (operator step)
- Until the first beta exists, every stable dispatch requires
`skip_soak_justification`. This is deliberate — the first beta ships
immediately after this merges — but it is a behavior change to the
stable dispatch
- The soak clock reads the beta's npm publish time from the registry; a
registry outage makes the preflight fall back to requiring justification
(fail-closed)

Devin Foley 5a0985f80a test(release-smoke): update onboarding spec for the mission-first wizard (#11190)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The release subsystem's nightly lane gates every nightly publish on
the release smoke suite, which drives real onboarding in a browser
against the published artifact
> - With the harness fixed (#11187, #11189), the gate reached the
Playwright suite for the first time in CI — and the spec still walks the
old onboarding wizard, so it fails at "Create your first agent" on every
current build
> - The wizard was redesigned to a mission-first five-step flow, and the
spec rotted silently because the suite never ran in CI before
> - This pull request rewrites the spec to drive the current wizard end
to end
> - The benefit is a smoke gate that actually tests today's product,
verified against a real published canary

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Release smoke testing:
`tests/release-smoke/docker-auth-onboarding.spec.ts`.

**Problem or motivation**

Nightly run 31431273139 failed in the smoke Playwright suite: the spec
expects the old wizard step "Create your first agent", but current
builds show the redesigned mission-first flow (front door → company →
mission → team lead → connect model → review). The page snapshot in the
run artifact shows the "Define your mission" step where the spec
expected the agent step. Both retries failed identically — this is
deterministic spec drift, not flake.

**Proposed solution**

Rewrite the spec for the current flow: fill the company name, define the
mission directly (confirming creates the company), name the team lead,
hire it through the adapter step — the adapter environment probe reports
unhealthy in the CLI-less smoke container by design and must not block
the hire — then launch to the dashboard. Assert the company, the
ceo-role agent, and the company goal through the API. The first-task and
assignment-run assertions are removed together with the wizard flow that
created them.

## What Changed

- `tests/release-smoke/docker-auth-onboarding.spec.ts`: rewritten for
the mission-first wizard; sign-in and wizard-opening helpers and the
company-name step are unchanged

## Verification

- Full local run against the real nightly candidate: launched the smoke
container for `paperclipai@2026.810.0-canary.3` via
`scripts/docker-onboard-smoke.sh` (with the #11189 bind fix), then ran
`pnpm run test:release-smoke` against it — 1 passed (4.5s)
- After merge: dispatch `release.yml` with `channel: nightly` to run the
full gate in CI

## Risks

- Low. Test-only change. The spec now asserts less about first-task
creation because the wizard no longer creates a first task; if a
first-run trigger returns to onboarding, the spec should grow that
assertion back

Devin Foley f94f6003c6 fix(release-smoke): pin the smoke container to the lan bind preset (#11189)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The release subsystem's nightly lane gates every nightly on the
release smoke suite, which boots the published artifact in a Docker
container and drives real onboarding
> - The gate kept failing even after the readiness budget fix (#11187),
and the new container-log dump revealed the server was healthy but
listening on 127.0.0.1 inside the container, unreachable through
Docker's port mapping
> - `onboard --yes` without an explicit `--bind` prefers trusted-local
quickstart defaults: it writes a loopback bind into the instance config
and ignores the deployment env vars the harness passes, and that config
outranks `HOST` at runtime
> - This pull request pins the smoke container to the `lan` bind preset
and adds a wiring test for it
> - The benefit is a working nightly gate, verified end to end against a
real published canary

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Release smoke testing: `docker/Dockerfile.onboard-smoke`,
`scripts/__tests__/release-verify-workflow.test.mjs`.

**Problem or motivation**

Nightly run 31428558684 failed in smoke with the server unreachable at
the mapped port for the full 420 second budget. The container logs
(captured thanks to #11187) show a fully booted server with `Bind
loopback (127.0.0.1)`. The harness sets `HOST=0.0.0.0` and the
deployment env vars, but `onboard --yes` without `--bind` deliberately
prefers trusted-local defaults, writes `bind: loopback` into the
instance config, and the config outranks `HOST` at runtime. A loopback
listener inside a container is invisible to the port mapping, so the
health check can never pass. This behavior predates the current stable,
so the harness was silently broken against every recent version — it
only surfaced now because the nightly lane is the suite's first CI
consumer.

**Proposed solution**

Pass `--bind lan` in the smoke container command (the flag is supported
by `latest` and canary alike; it selects the all-interfaces preset and
keeps the env-driven authenticated deployment), and pin the flag with a
wiring test so it cannot regress silently.

## What Changed

- `docker/Dockerfile.onboard-smoke`: the onboard command is now `onboard
--yes --bind lan --data-dir ...`, with a comment explaining why the flag
is load-bearing
- `scripts/__tests__/release-verify-workflow.test.mjs`: wiring test
asserting the smoke Dockerfile pins a non-loopback bind preset

## Verification

- Full local harness run against the real nightly candidate
`2026.810.0-canary.1`: container healthy, bind banner shows `lan
(0.0.0.0)`, authenticated bootstrap completed (admin created, bootstrap
invite accepted, board session verified), `/api/health` returns
`bootstrapStatus: ready`
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/release-verify-workflow.test.mjs`: 4
pass
- After merge: dispatch `release.yml` with `channel: nightly` to run the
gate end to end in CI

## Risks

- Low. The change only affects the smoke container. `--bind lan` inside
a container exposes the port to the container network only; reachability
from outside still goes through Docker's explicit port mapping

Devin Foley 30f6999cbe fix(release-smoke): configurable readiness timeout and diagnostics for slow containers (#11187)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The release subsystem's nightly lane (#11006) gates every nightly
publish on the release smoke suite, which boots the published artifact
in a Docker container
> - The suite's first CI execution failed at the health readiness check:
the harness hard-codes a 90 second budget, but a CI container
cold-installs paperclipai from npm and initializes embedded postgres
with no warm caches
> - When the timeout expired with the container still running, the
harness printed no container logs, so the failure gave no diagnostics
> - This pull request makes the readiness budget configurable, raises it
for CI, and dumps container logs on timeout
> - The benefit is that the nightly gate measures the artifact, not the
runner's cold caches, and a red smoke run is diagnosable from its logs

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Release smoke testing: `scripts/docker-onboard-smoke.sh`,
`.github/workflows/release-smoke.yml`.

**Problem or motivation**

Run 31426044332 (first forced nightly after #11006) failed in
`smoke_nightly` with `server did not become ready at
http://localhost:3232/api/health` after exactly 90 seconds. The
harness's readiness window is hard-coded to 90 attempts at 1 second.
Locally that works because the npm cache is warm; in CI the container
downloads the full package set and embedded postgres first. The timeout
path also printed no container logs when the container was still
running, so there was no way to see how far boot had progressed.

**Proposed solution**

Make the readiness budget an environment variable
(`SMOKE_READY_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`, default unchanged at 90 for local use),
set it to 420 in the CI workflow, and dump the last 150 container log
lines when the readiness check times out on a still-running container.

## What Changed

- `scripts/docker-onboard-smoke.sh`: `SMOKE_READY_TIMEOUT_SECONDS` env
var (default 90) replaces the hard-coded readiness budget; timeout with
a still-running container now prints the tail of `docker logs`
- `.github/workflows/release-smoke.yml`: sets
`SMOKE_READY_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=420` for CI runs

## Verification

- `bash -n` on the harness and YAML parse of the workflow
- The real proof is the next `channel: nightly` dispatch of
`release.yml`, which re-runs this suite in CI with the new budget

## Risks

- Low. The local default is unchanged; CI runs simply wait longer before
declaring failure, and a genuinely broken artifact still fails (with
logs now)

Devin Foley 5ca752dc81 fix(server): raise company import zip upload limit to 1 GB and make it operator-configurable (#11184)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Company import/export lets an operator move a full company package
between instances, with the Import page uploading the package as one
compressed `.zip`
> - The server caps that upload at 128 MB, and real company packages
with attachments now exceed it — imports fail at the preview step
> - The failure message tells the user to use the CLI folder import, but
that path posts inline JSON capped at 64 MB, so the advice is a dead end
for exactly these packages
> - This pull request raises the zip upload cap to a 1 GB default, makes
it operator-configurable through an environment variable, scales the
decompression-bomb guards from the cap in effect, and replaces the
misleading hint
> - The benefit is that large real-world company packages import
successfully, and operators with unusual needs can tune the cap without
a code change

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A company import fails at the preview step with `Preview failed: Import
package exceeds 134217728 bytes`. The package is a valid Paperclip
export. Its compressed size is larger than the 128 MB server cap (one
reported package is 257 MB). The error panel suggests the CLI folder
import, but that path sends the package as one inline JSON body capped
at 64 MB, so it also fails.

**Expected behavior**

A valid company package of realistic size imports successfully through
the Import page. If a package is too large, the error must state the
limit clearly and suggest a step that can work.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Export a company with enough attachments to make the compressed
package larger than 128 MB.
2. Open the Import page and upload the `.zip`.
3. Click "Preview import".
4. The preview fails with `Import package exceeds 134217728 bytes`.

**Deployment mode**

Reported from a managed deployment; the limit applies to all deployment
modes.

## What Changed

- Raise `PORTABLE_ZIP_UPLOAD_LIMIT_BYTES` from 128 MB to a 1 GB default
(`server/src/http/body-limits.ts`).
- Add the `PAPERCLIP_IMPORT_ZIP_MAX_BYTES` environment override. Invalid
or non-positive values fall back to the default.
- Scale the zip decompression-bomb guard from the configured cap at the
import route: the aggregate inflated ceiling is 4x the cap. The
per-entry ceiling stays at 512 MB because V8's string length limit
applies to an entry regardless (`server/src/routes/companies.ts`,
`packages/shared/src/portability-zip.ts`).
- Report the 422 limit error in MB instead of raw bytes.
- Replace the "use the CLI folder import for very large packages" hint
on preview failure with advice that works: re-export the package without
large attachments (`ui/src/pages/CompanyImport.tsx`).
- Update the stale comment in `ui/src/lib/import-preflight.ts` that made
the same CLI claim.
- Add tests for the new default, the env override, and the
invalid-override fallback.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/body-limits.test.ts
packages/shared/src/portability-zip.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability-import-batching.test.ts` — all
pass.
- `pnpm vitest run ui/src/pages/CompanyImport.test.tsx` — passes,
including the updated failure-panel copy assertion.
- `pnpm typecheck` — clean across the workspace.
- Manual: upload a `.zip` larger than the configured cap; the preview
fails with `Import package exceeds the 1024 MB upload limit` and the new
hint. A package between 128 MB and 1 GB now previews and imports.

## Risks

- Peak per-import memory rises with the cap: the upload is buffered in
memory and unzipped in one pass. A 1 GB compressed package can use
several GB transiently. Imports are instance-admin actions, so the
exposure is a deliberate operator action, not anonymous traffic.
Operators on small hosts can lower the cap with
`PAPERCLIP_IMPORT_ZIP_MAX_BYTES`.
- The aggregate bomb guard moves from a fixed 512 MB to 4x the
configured cap. It still bounds expansion far below what a decompression
bomb needs.
- No migration and no API shape change. The 422 message text changes; no
code matches on the old text.

Devin Foley f9173782cd feat(release): add smoke-gated nightly channel and lane-separated Docker tags (#11006)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The release subsystem publishes the `paperclipai` npm package set
and the Docker images on two lanes: canary on every master push, and
stable on manual promotion
> - There is no middle ground between those lanes. Users must track
every merge or wait weeks for a stable. Docker `:latest` also tracks
master, so Docker users have no stable image at all
> - A calm prerelease lane needs to exist, and it must never ship a
build that failed its checks
> - This pull request adds the nightly channel: a scheduled job that
selects the newest master commit with a green canary publish, runs the
full release smoke suite against that exact published canary, and only
then republishes it as the nightly. It also separates Docker tags by
lane, so `:latest` finally means stable
> - The benefit is that users can follow prereleases at a nightly
cadence with a smoke-tested guarantee, and Docker users get real
`:canary`, `:nightly`, and stable image tags

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Release automation: `scripts/release.sh`, `scripts/release-lib.sh`,
`.github/workflows/release.yml`, `.github/workflows/docker.yml`,
`.github/workflows/release-smoke.yml`.

**Problem or motivation**

The project publishes only `canary` (every master push) and `latest`
(manual stable). Users who want prereleases without per-merge churn have
no option. Docker has a second problem: master builds overwrite
`:latest`, and CI-published stables never produced Docker images,
because tags pushed with `GITHUB_TOKEN` do not fire the `v*` tag trigger
in `docker.yml`. No stable-versioned image exists in ghcr today.

**Proposed solution**

Add a `nightly` channel. A scheduled job selects the newest
canary-tagged master commit, smoke-tests that exact published canary,
and republishes the same commit as `YYYY.MDD.P-nightly.N` under the
`nightly` dist-tag. Separate Docker tags by lane (`:canary` for master,
`:nightly` for nightly tags, `:latest` plus version tags for stable tags
only), and have the release jobs dispatch `docker.yml` at the new tag so
lane images actually build.

**Alternatives considered**

Moving the `nightly` dist-tag to the existing canary version without a
republish. Rejected: the version string would say `canary` while the
user is on nightly, which breaks at-a-glance lane identification in bug
reports and `--version` output.

## What Changed

- `scripts/release-lib.sh`: channel-parameterized
`next_prerelease_version` and `prerelease_tag_name` helpers (canary
helpers delegate to them), a `require_channel_tag_at_head` guard, and
the no-provenance retry for Sigstore transparency-log duplicates now
covers the `nightly` dist-tag as well as `canary`
- `scripts/release.sh`: new `nightly` channel. It requires HEAD to carry
a `canary/v*` tag, publishes the full public package set as
`YYYY.MDD.P-nightly.N` under dist-tag `nightly`, and tags the source
commit `nightly/vYYYY.MDD.P-nightly.N`
- `.github/workflows/release.yml`: scheduled nightly chain (09:00 UTC) —
select candidate, smoke it via `release-smoke.yml`, publish on green
under the existing `npm-canary` environment, push the tag, dispatch
`docker.yml`. New `channel` dispatch input (default `stable`, so
existing stable dispatches are unchanged) with `nightly_source_version`
and `dry_run` support for forced runs. The stable path now also
dispatches `docker.yml` at the new `v*` tag
- `.github/workflows/docker.yml`: lane tag mapping for both image jobs —
master pushes publish `:canary` and no longer move `:latest`;
`nightly/v*` tags publish `:nightly`; only stable `v*` tags publish
`:latest` and the versioned tags. New `workflow_dispatch` trigger for
the release-job dispatches. Build-version stamping uses the exact
nightly version on nightly tag builds
- `.github/workflows/release-smoke.yml`: `nightly` added to the dispatch
choice list
- `doc/CHANNELS.md` (new): user-facing guide to the channels
- `doc/RELEASING.md`: nightly lane documentation, Docker tag mapping
table, and a nightly failure playbook
- `doc/RELEASE-AUTOMATION-SETUP.md`: note that nightly reuses
`npm-canary` and needs no npm trusted-publisher changes
- Tests: channel-parameterized version helper coverage in
`scripts/release-registry-versions.test.mjs`, and nightly flow coverage
(publish identity, notes not required, canary-tag guard) in
`scripts/__tests__/release-dry-run-notes.test.mjs`

## Verification

- `node --test` on the release script suites: 68 pass, including 6 new
tests. The only failure, `acpx-patch-packaging.test.mjs`, needs
installed `node_modules` and fails identically on a pristine checkout of
master in the same environment
- `bash -n` on both shell scripts and YAML parse of all three workflows
- Live fail-path check: `./scripts/release.sh nightly --print-version`
from a master tip with no canary tag fails with `HEAD has no canary/v*
tag`
- Live success-path check: the same command from the
`canary/v2026.806.0-canary.7` commit prints `2026.806.0-nightly.0`
- Live selection check: the candidate-selection shell logic run against
the real repository selects the commit of `canary/v2026.806.0-canary.7`,
which matches the current npm `canary` dist-tag exactly
- After merge: dispatch `release.yml` with `channel: nightly` and
`dry_run: true` to preview, then a real forced run to validate end to
end before the first scheduled run

## Risks

- Docker `:latest` changes meaning from "latest master build" to "latest
stable release". This is deliberate and will be announced. Users who
want the old behavior pull `:canary`. Until the first stable release
after this change, `:latest` stays at its current (master-built) image
- The nightly is a rebuild of the same source commit, not the
byte-identical canary artifact that was smoked. The lockfile pins
dependencies, and the publish path's registry-visibility and
clean-prefix install gates still run on the nightly artifacts
- All npm publishing must stay inside `release.yml` because npm trusted
publishing pins that workflow file per package. The nightly jobs were
added to `release.yml` for exactly that reason; this constraint is now
documented in `RELEASING.md`
- The stable-lane Docker dispatch fails gracefully (a warning with
manual instructions) when the source ref predates `docker.yml`'s
`workflow_dispatch` trigger

Devin Foley 75acc4650f feat(sandbox-providers): pre-fill environment form with default sizing and image values (#11004)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent runs execute inside sandbox environments. Sandbox provider
plugins (Daytona, Modal, exe.dev, and others) declare a JSON-Schema
`configSchema`. The Environment configuration form renders from that
schema.
> - The sizing and image fields open empty. Users must guess working
values. The Modal form cannot submit at all until the user types an app
name and an image by hand.
> - The form renderer already pre-fills every field that declares a
JSON-Schema `default`. The manifests do not use this mechanism for
sizing or image fields.
> - This pull request adds optional `default` values to the Daytona,
Modal, and exe.dev manifest schemas.
> - The benefit is a form that opens with known-good values. Users can
create a working environment without provider research.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Current behavior**

The Environment configuration form opens with empty sizing and image
fields for the Daytona, Modal, and exe.dev sandbox providers. Users must
find working values in provider documentation. Modal declares `appName`
and `image` as required with no default, so the form blocks submission
until the user invents both values.

**Proposed behavior**

The provider manifests declare JSON-Schema `default` values. The
existing form renderer pre-fills them:

- Daytona: CPU `4`, memory `4` GiB, disk `10` GiB, image
`daytonaio/sandbox:0.8.0`
- exe.dev: CPU `4`, memory `4GB`, disk `20GB`
- Modal: app name `paperclip`, image `node:22`

Secret-ref fields (API keys, tokens) get no defaults on purpose. The
form persists a raw string in a secret-ref field as a company secret on
save. A placeholder default would become a stored secret with a bogus
value. Each plugin test suite now guards this invariant.

**Reason and benefit**

New users can create a working sandbox environment without guessing. The
defaults stay optional: users can clear or change every value, and the
schema marks no new field as required. The Modal image default `node:22`
satisfies the sandbox runtime contract in `SANDBOX-REQUIREMENTS.md`
(`node`, `sh`, and `tar` on PATH).

**Subsystem affected**

Sandbox provider plugins (`packages/plugins/sandbox-providers/*`):
environment driver `configSchema` manifests.

**Breaking changes**

None. Defaults only seed the create-mode form. Saved environments keep
their stored config. E2B, Novita, Cloudflare, and Kubernetes manifests
do not change: E2B and Novita already default to their base templates,
and the Cloudflare bridge and Kubernetes cluster fields have no sensible
universal value.

## What Changed

- Add `default` values for `cpu`, `memory`, `disk`, and `image` in the
Daytona manifest. Trim the memory description to match.
- Add `default` values for `cpu`, `memory`, and `disk` in the exe.dev
manifest.
- Add `default` values for `appName` and `image` in the Modal manifest.
Extend the image description with the runtime-contract rationale.
- Add manifest tests in all three plugins: defaults match expected
values, defaults satisfy their own schema constraints, and no secret-ref
field declares a default.
- Bump plugin versions: daytona and modal `0.1.0` → `0.1.1`, exe-dev
`0.1.1` → `0.1.2`.

## Verification

- Run `pnpm test` in `packages/plugins/sandbox-providers/daytona`,
`.../modal`, and `.../exe-dev`. The new `* manifest form defaults`
suites pass.
- Run `./node_modules/.bin/tsc --noEmit` in each of the three packages.
Typecheck passes.
- Manual: rebuild the plugins (`pnpm build` in each package), let the
plugin dev-watcher refresh the manifest, then open Environments → New
environment. The Daytona form shows CPU 4, Memory 4, Disk 10, and image
`daytonaio/sandbox:0.8.0`. The Modal form shows `paperclip` and
`node:22`. The API key fields stay empty.
- Verified live on a local instance: the served `configSchema` in the
plugin registry carries the new defaults, and existing environments are
unchanged.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change touches only manifest schema metadata and tests.
No runtime code path changes.
- New environments created with untouched forms now request 4 CPU / 4
GiB / 10 GiB from Daytona instead of provider minimums. This can raise
cost per sandbox for users who previously saved empty fields.
- The Daytona image default pins `daytonaio/sandbox:0.8.0`. The default
needs a manual bump when Daytona ships new sandbox images.

00a24d7e8f ci: split general-server tests into five shards with refreshed durations (#10925)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The PR workflow runs the server vitest suite across sharded runners
because the suite is pinned to one worker.
> - In successful PR run 30930345729 (2026-08-04), shard `server (3/4)`
took 311 seconds of wall time and was the slowest check in the run.
> - The suite has grown to about 946 seconds of serial vitest time, but
the duration manifest was last sampled on 2026-08-01 at about 882
seconds.
> - This pull request refreshes the per-suite duration manifest from
that run's logs and splits the lane into five shards.
> - The benefit is a shorter PR critical path: each shard carries about
196 seconds of suite time, level with the other lanes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #10663 (previous split of this lane into four shards).
Related: #10923 splits the separate serialized-suites lane into five
shards. Both PRs touch `.github/workflows/pr.yml` in different matrix
blocks; whichever merges second needs a trivial rebase.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The `general-server` vitest lane runs in four shards with a duration
manifest sampled on 2026-08-01.

**Current behavior**

In PR run 30930345729, shard 3/4 ran for 311 seconds (273 seconds in the
test step) and was the longest check in the run. The suite now totals
about 946 seconds of serial vitest time.

**Proposed behavior**

Run the same suite set in five shards, balanced with a per-suite
duration manifest refreshed from that run's shard logs (279 suites
measured by diffing consecutive completion timestamps).

**Reason and benefit**

The refreshed LPT partition balances at about 196 seconds of suite time
per shard (about 240 seconds per job), level with the other PR lanes. No
test coverage is lost.

**Breaking changes**

None. The change only alters the CI partition size and the duration
manifest.

## What Changed

- Bump the `general-server` shard matrix in `.github/workflows/pr.yml`
from four to five shards.
- Refresh `scripts/general-server-shard-durations.json` from the
2026-08-04 run's shard logs.
- Update `SHARD_COUNT` in
`scripts/__tests__/run-vitest-stable-shard.test.mjs` to five.

## Verification

- `node --test scripts/__tests__/run-vitest-stable-shard.test.mjs` — 9/9
pass, including the complete non-overlapping partition proof and the
duration-balance check.
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/release-verify-workflow.test.mjs` — 2/2
pass.
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/e2e-shard.test.mjs` — 7/7 pass.
- A 5-way dry-run partition covers all suites exactly once with equal
projected weights.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change only alters CI partition size and duration
weights; the suite set is unchanged.
- One more runner is used per PR run for this lane.
- Stale duration weights degrade gracefully: suites missing from the
manifest get the median weight.

Devin FoleyandDevin Foley b6e58019f2 ci: split serialized tests into five shards (#10923)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip uses CI to keep control-plane changes safe and mergeable.
> - The PR workflow splits serialized server tests across isolated
runners.
> - A recent successful run spent 305 seconds in serialized shard 2/4.
> - That job was the slowest check in the run.
> - The four shards reported about 739 seconds of Vitest suite time.
> - This pull request adds a fifth serialized shard and keeps release
verification aligned.
> - The benefit is a shorter PR critical path with no loss of test
coverage.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The PR and release verification workflows run serialized server tests in
four shards.

**Current behavior**

Successful PR run 30876682788 spent 305 seconds in `Verify serialized
server suites (2/4)`. The test step used 256 seconds and made this job
the slowest check.

**Proposed behavior**

Run the same serialized suite set in five complete and non-overlapping
shards.

**Reason and benefit**

The measured suites reported about 739 seconds of total Vitest time.
Five runners reduce the expected average suite time from about 185
seconds to about 148 seconds before setup overhead.

**Breaking changes**

None. The change only alters CI partition size.

## What Changed

- Split serialized server tests into five shards in the PR workflow.
- Apply the same five-shard layout to release verification.
- Add a partition test that proves complete and non-overlapping
serialized coverage.
- Update release workflow coverage tests for five shards.

## Verification

- `node --test scripts/__tests__/run-vitest-stable-shard.test.mjs
scripts/__tests__/release-verify-workflow.test.mjs`
- `git diff --check`

## Risks

- Low risk. CI uses one additional runner for the serialized lane.
- Round-robin partition weights can still vary as suite timings change.

> This change does not overlap with planned core work in `ROADMAP.md`.
Related PR #10663 optimized the separate general-server lane.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, agentic coding with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution.

Devin Foley ffd62a4cbb fix(adapter-utils): carry the workspace origin remote into transported git workspaces (#10873)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - When an agent runs on a different host (sandbox or SSH), the adapter
transport copies the local git execution workspace to that host and
syncs changes back after the run
> - The transport materializes the remote copy with `git init` plus a
depth-1 or bundle fetch, so the copy has no `origin` remote and its head
reads as a parentless snapshot commit
> - An agent asked to publish its branch (push it, open a pull request)
sees "no remote, root snapshot" and must hand the publish step back to a
human operator, even when the branch base is a commit the upstream
remote already holds
> - This pull request carries the workspace's `origin` URL
(credential-scrubbed) onto the transported copy as metadata
> - The benefit is that branches produced in transported workspaces stay
publishable by any actor with credentials, while the transport itself
still never fetches or pushes

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. Description follows the enhancement template:

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The workspace transport in `@paperclipai/adapter-utils` already copies a
git workspace to the execution host and back. This change improves the
fidelity of that copy: the transported repo keeps the workspace's
`origin` remote instead of losing it.

**Subsystem affected**

Adapter utilities — the sandbox transport
(`withShallowGitWorkspaceClone` in
`packages/adapter-utils/src/git-workspace-sync.ts`) and the SSH
transport (`importGitWorkspaceToSsh` in
`packages/adapter-utils/src/ssh.ts`).

**Current behavior**

The transported copy is built with `git init` plus a depth-1 (sandbox)
or bundle (SSH) fetch. It has no remotes. `git remote -v` is empty and
the head commit reads as a root snapshot with no visible ancestry.
Agents and operators inside the execution host cannot fetch real
ancestry or push a branch, even when the branch base is a commit the
upstream remote already holds.

**Proposed behavior**

The transport reads the source workspace's `origin` URL, scrubs
credentials from it, and configures it on the transported copy. The
sandbox path adds the remote to the fresh clone. The SSH path sets or
adds the remote in the remote setup script, which also covers reused
workspace directories. A workspace with no `origin` transports exactly
as before.

**Reason and benefit**

A branch committed in a transported workspace becomes publishable in
place: the shallow boundary commit already exists on the remote, so a
push pack closes without full local ancestry (a new test locks in this
property). Fetching real ancestry also becomes possible for whoever
holds credentials. Without this, agents must describe their change in a
handoff document and a human must reconstruct the branch by hand.

**Breaking changes**

None. The URL copy is best-effort and metadata-only. The transport never
fetches from or pushes to the remote. The no-remote-git contract holds:
sync-back through the local cwd stays the only cross-run persistence
path, and `packages/adapters/AUTHORING.md` gains a paragraph that makes
the carried-remote nuance explicit.

## What Changed

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/git-workspace-sync.ts`: new
`sanitizeGitRemoteUrl` (strips http(s) userinfo, where tokens can be
embedded; scp-like/ssh forms and filesystem paths pass through) and
`readSanitizedOriginRemoteUrl`; `withShallowGitWorkspaceClone`
configures the scrubbed `origin` on the fresh clone, best-effort.
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/ssh.ts`: `importGitWorkspaceToSsh` sets or
adds the scrubbed `origin` in the remote setup script, non-fatal under
`set -e`.
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/git-workspace-sync.test.ts`: four new
integration cases (remote copied, credentials scrubbed, no-origin
unchanged, push from the shallow clone to an origin that holds the base
commit) plus `sanitizeGitRemoteUrl` unit tests.
- `packages/adapters/AUTHORING.md`: documents that a transported copy
may carry a credential-scrubbed `origin` as metadata, and why this does
not weaken the no-remote-git contract.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run packages/adapter-utils/src/git-workspace-sync.test.ts`
— 12/12 pass (4 new integration cases + sanitizer unit tests).
- `npx vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-managed-runtime.test.ts` — 24/24
pass.
- `npx vitest run packages/adapter-utils/src/ssh-fixture.test.ts` —
16/16 pass, including the `no-remote-git contract` case (a workspace
without `origin` still round-trips with no remote introduced at any
point).
- `node scripts/check-no-git-push.mjs` — passes; this change adds no
push or fetch to adapter/runtime code.
- `pnpm typecheck` in `packages/adapter-utils` — clean.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is additive metadata on the transported copy
only; failure to record the remote never fails the transport.
- Credential exposure is the real hazard and is handled: http(s)
userinfo is stripped before the URL leaves the host. Non-http forms
(scp-like, `ssh://`) carry no secret in the URL and pass through.
- A reused SSH workspace whose project `origin` changed now gets the
current URL via `set-url` instead of keeping a stale one.

Devin Foley f0b06d2de9 feat(claude): environment-aware test-environment probe and claude-local CI coverage (#10833)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The claude_local adapter runs Claude Code on sandbox execution
targets, and operators verify an agent's configuration with the
test-environment probe before running it
> - Real runs merge the selected environment's env vars (secret refs
included) under the agent's adapter config env, but the probe built its
config from the adapter config alone — so environment-level auth worked
in runs while the Test button reported missing auth, and a dropped
secret binding passed silently
> - The claude env-test hints also did not recognize
`CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` even though the CLI accepts it, and a hello
probe that hit the subscription usage limit reported a hard failure
although authentication worked
> - Separately, the claude-local package test suites were absent from
the CI project list, so two suites drifted broken without notice
> - This pull request makes the probe resolve the same layered env as a
real run, adds the missing auth hint, classifies usage-limit probe
results as a warning, repairs the drifted suites, and turns the
claude-local project on in CI
> - The benefit is a Test button that tells the truth about
environment-level configuration, and a test suite that actually gates
the claude-local adapter

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists; related open PRs: Refs #9488 (recognizes
CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN in environment checks — overlaps with the
auth-hint portion of this PR via a differently named check; it does not
cover the environment-envVars probe merge, the usage-limit
classification, or the CI coverage), Refs #9933 (live credential
validation in environment checks — complementary, no file-level conflict
with the route change).

The underlying problem, following the enhancement template:

**Current behavior**

The test-environment route builds the probe config from the agent's
adapterConfig only. Real runs merge the selected environment's envVars
under the agent env, so environment-level env vars (including auth such
as `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` or `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` bound as environment
secrets) work in runs while "Test environment" cannot see them, and a
missing secret binding passes silently. The claude env-test hints do not
recognize `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN`. A hello probe that hits the
subscription usage limit reports a hard `claude_hello_probe_failed`. The
claude-local package test suites do not run in CI, and two of them are
stale.

**Proposed behavior**

The probe resolves the selected environment's envVars
(environment-consumer secret bindings included) and merges them under
the agent config env with the run-path precedence; missing bindings
surface as an explicit error check that fails the test. The env-test
emits a `claude_oauth_token_configured` info check when that variable is
set. Usage-limit probe results classify as a
`claude_hello_probe_usage_limited` warning because auth works and only
the usage window is spent. The claude-local suites run in CI. Docs state
the resulting facts.

**Reason and benefit**

The Test button should tell the truth: it previously contradicted run
behavior for environment-level configuration and hid broken secret
bindings. Enabling the package suites in CI prevents further silent
drift — two suites were already broken on master without anyone
noticing.

**Breaking changes**

None. Runs are unchanged. The probe route only adds env layers and
checks; setups without environment envVars behave exactly as before.

## What Changed

- `server/src/routes/agents.ts`: the test-environment route resolves the
selected environment's envVars (forbidden keys stripped,
environment-consumer secret context) and merges them under the agent
adapterConfig env, mirroring `resolveExecutionRunAdapterConfig`
precedence. Missing secret bindings are skipped, reported as an
`environment_env_binding_missing` error check, and fail the test —
matching the `ConfigurationIncompleteFailure` a real dispatch would
raise.
- `packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/test.ts`: new
`claude_oauth_token_configured` info hint between the API-key warning
and the subscription fallback; hello-probe classification gains a
`claude_hello_probe_usage_limited` warning for provider-quota results
(previously a hard `claude_hello_probe_failed`).
- `scripts/run-vitest-stable.mjs`: add
`@paperclipai/adapter-claude-local` to `nonServerProjects` so CI runs
the package suites.
- `packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts`:
assert both runtime asset syncs (skills and mcp-config); the suite
predated the mcp-config asset.
- `packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/test.probe.test.ts`:
usage-limit fixture now expects the usage-limited warning; new fixture
covers the genuine transient path (529 overloaded); new tests cover the
token hint and API-key precedence.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-test-environment-routes.test.ts`: new
tests for the env merge (agent wins on conflict, forbidden key
filtered), missing-binding reporting, and the no-execution-target
fallback path.
- `docs/adapters/claude-local.md`, `docs/adapters/overview.md`: state
the auth-input facts (API key or oauth token wins over stored logins;
snapshot-owns-auth applies when neither is configured) and describe the
environment-aware Test behavior.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run --project @paperclipai/adapter-claude-local` — 131
tests pass (both drifted suites repaired; they fail on master today).
- `npx vitest run
server/src/__tests__/agent-test-environment-routes.test.ts` — 7 tests
pass.
- `node --test ./scripts/__tests__/run-vitest-stable-shard.test.mjs` —
passes with the added project.
- `pnpm typecheck` in `server/` and `packages/adapters/claude-local/` —
clean.

## Risks

- Low risk. The run path is untouched; the probe route change is
additive and inert when the environment has no envVars.
- The probe now performs environment-consumer secret resolution at test
time; access is authorized per binding exactly as at run time, and the
audit consumer is the environment (as before for adapter-config
resolution).
- Enabling the claude-local project in CI adds about 2 seconds of vitest
wall time to the general workspaces group and could surface future
regressions in that package — which is the point.

Devin Foley cb52f0b750 db: env-configurable client options; parallelize attention feed queries (#10795)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server stores all state in PostgreSQL through Drizzle and the
postgres.js driver
> - Self-hosted installs run Postgres on localhost, so per-query latency
is near zero; hosted installs often attach Postgres over a network,
sometimes through a transaction-mode pooler
> - The DB client passes no options to the driver, so operators cannot
disable prepared statements or tune the pool without a source edit, and
the deploy docs told them to edit `client.ts`
> - The attention feed also runs its related-data lookups one after
another, so its latency grows as queries × network round trip
> - This pull request adds optional environment configuration for the DB
client and batches the independent attention-feed lookups with
`Promise.all`
> - The benefit is that network-attached deployments get correct pooler
support and a much faster attention feed, while self-hosted behavior
does not change

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists for this; description follows the bug report
template:

**What happened?**

On deployments where PostgreSQL is network-attached (managed providers,
pooled endpoints), the attention feed endpoint is slow:
`attentionService.list()` awaits ~15–20 queries strictly in sequence, so
a 70ms round trip turns into more than one second of pure network wait
per call. Separately, connecting through a transaction-mode pooler
(pgbouncer, Supavisor port 6543, Neon `-pooler` hosts) requires
disabling prepared statements, and the only documented way was to
hand-edit `packages/db/src/client.ts` — which `doc/DATABASE.md` itself
tells operators not to do.

**Expected behavior**

The DB client is configurable from the environment (prepared statements,
pool size, timeouts) with driver defaults when unset, and hot read paths
do not multiply network latency by issuing independent queries
sequentially.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run the server with `DATABASE_URL` pointing at a Postgres instance
with ~70ms round-trip latency.
2. Open the attention feed (`GET /companies/:companyId/attention`) and
measure response time — it exceeds one second even with little data.
3. Try to connect through a transaction-mode pooler: there is no
supported configuration to disable prepared statements.

## What Changed

- `packages/db/src/client.ts`: `createDb` accepts a
`DatabaseClientOptions` argument and reads optional env config —
`DATABASE_PREPARED_STATEMENTS`, `DATABASE_POOL_MAX`,
`DATABASE_IDLE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`, `DATABASE_CONNECT_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`.
When nothing is set, no option is passed to the driver and behavior is
identical to the previous bare `postgres(url)`.
- `packages/db/src/client-options.test.ts` (new): env parsing and
driver-option mapping tests, including malformed-value rejection.
- `server/src/services/attention.ts`: the independent related-data
lookups in each feed section now run under `Promise.all` (issue
summary/image/plan-document maps, decision bundle titles, blocked-issue
maps, the newer-runs scan). Section order, item assembly, and query
shapes are unchanged.
- `doc/DATABASE.md` and `docs/deploy/database.md`: the edit-source
pooling instruction is replaced with the env toggle, plus a short
client-tuning reference.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db exec vitest run
src/client-options.test.ts` — 6 tests pass.
- `pnpm --filter server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/attention-service.test.ts` — 22 tests pass.
- `pnpm --filter server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/decisions-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/decision-training.test.ts` — 45 tests pass; this covers
the call path that runs `attentionService.list()` inside
`db.transaction`, where postgres.js serializes queries on the reserved
connection.
- `tsc` reports no errors in the changed files.

## Risks

- Low risk for self-hosted installs: with no env vars set,
`postgres(url, {})` receives an empty options object, which postgres.js
treats the same as no options — driver defaults throughout.
- The `Promise.all` batches only group queries that had no data
dependency on each other; on the transaction call path the driver still
executes them one at a time on the reserved connection, so transactional
semantics are unchanged.
- Malformed env values now fail fast at startup with a clear message
instead of being silently ignored; this is intentional and only affects

Devin Foley 2c90cf0f2c fix(server): serialize managed-checkout materialization and stop misattributing clone failures (#10723)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Repo-only project workspaces are materialized by a server-side
managed `git clone` into a per-project directory (#10720 added
credentials for private repos)
> - Two issues on the same project routinely wake seconds apart, and
both runs race the same clone target
> - The loser fails with "destination path already exists", and its
failure cleanup removes the directory out from under the winner's
in-progress clone — both runs then fail every round
> - This pull request serializes materialization per target directory
and makes the clone land atomically via a temp sibling + rename, so the
shared target is never partial and never removed
> - The benefit is that concurrent runs on the same project converge:
one clone happens, everyone adopts it, and unrelated failures no longer
blame the GitHub credential

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

With isolated workspaces enabled on a project whose only workspace is
repo-only, unblocking two issues at once produced lockstep mutual
destruction (observed live, two consecutive rounds): both runs called
the managed-checkout materialization concurrently; one clone created the
target directory, the other's `git clone` failed with `fatal:
destination path '…' already exists and is not an empty directory`, and
that run's failure cleanup deleted the directory while the first clone
was still writing into it (`fatal: could not set 'core…'`). Both runs
failed `workspace_validation_failed`; their staggered retries could race
again. The failure message also wrongly claimed the GitHub credential
"was rejected or lacks access" — the collision had nothing to do with
auth.

**Expected behavior**

Concurrent materializations of the same project checkout share one
clone; a completed checkout is never removed by a failing sibling; the
credential is only blamed for auth-shaped failures.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Project with a repo-only workspace (private repo, isolated workspaces
on).
2. Move two issues on that project to `todo` at the same time so both
runs start within seconds.
3. Both runs fail workspace validation with "destination path already
exists" / "could not set 'core…'" instead of one clone succeeding.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` (75f6256b76).

## What Changed

- `ensureManagedProjectWorkspace` serializes in-flight materializations
per target cwd (a module-level promise map): concurrent callers share
one attempt.
- The clone lands in a `<target>.clone-XXXXXX` temp sibling created with
`mkdtemp`, then moves into place with an atomic `rename`. Clone failure
removes only the temp directory; the shared target is never created
partially and never deleted. If the target appears between the emptiness
check and the rename (another process won), the completed checkout is
adopted instead of failing the run.
- `describeGitAuthFailure` attributes the GitHub credential only when
the error matches the auth-failure pattern; unrelated failures (path
collisions, network errors) no longer claim the token was rejected.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-managed-clone-credentials.test.ts
src/__tests__/git-credentials.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-session.test.ts` — 169 tests pass,
including new cases: concurrent materializations of the same checkout
succeed with one shared result and no temp litter; failed clones leave
neither target nor temp directories; an authenticated clone failing for
non-auth reasons does not blame the credential.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — clean.

## Risks

- Low risk. The serialization is in-process and keyed by exact target
path; the temp+rename pattern stays on the same filesystem (sibling
path) so the rename is atomic. Single-run behavior is byte-identical
apart from the temp-dir intermediate.
- The rename-conflict adoption path accepts a checkout another
materialization completed; the pre-existing `gitDirExists` adoption
semantics are unchanged.

Devin Foley 75f6256b76 fix(server): resolve duplicate scrubGitCredentialText declaration on master (#10722)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - #10719 and #10720 both hardened credential scrubbing for server-side
git operations
> - #10719 defined `scrubGitCredentialText` locally in `heartbeat.ts`;
#10720 imported the identical function from the new `git-credentials.ts`
> - The two merged cleanly textually, but together they leave
`heartbeat.ts` with an import that conflicts with a local declaration
(TS2440)
> - This pull request keeps the `git-credentials.ts` copy as canonical,
drops the heartbeat-local duplicate, and re-exports the import so
existing importers are unchanged
> - The benefit is that master typechecks, builds, and produces Docker
images again

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

After #10719 and #10720 merged, master fails typecheck, the server
build, and both Docker image builds with
`src/services/heartbeat.ts(76,3): error TS2440: Import declaration
conflicts with local declaration of 'scrubGitCredentialText'`. The
canary release run for e0c2448267 failed for the same reason, so no
`@paperclipai/db` canary carrying migrations 0201/0202 can publish.

**Expected behavior**

Master typechecks and builds; one canonical `scrubGitCredentialText`
lives in `git-credentials.ts`.

**Steps to reproduce**

`pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` on e0c2448267.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` (e0c2448267).

## What Changed

- Removed the heartbeat-local `scrubGitCredentialText` definition
(byte-identical to the `git-credentials.ts` copy).
- Re-exported the imported function from `heartbeat.ts` so existing
importers, including `heartbeat-workspace-session.test.ts`, keep
working.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — clean.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-session.test.ts
src/__tests__/git-credentials.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-managed-clone-credentials.test.ts` — 167 tests
pass.

## Risks

Low risk — deletes one of two identical implementations and preserves
the public import surface via a re-export.

Devin Foley e0c2448267 feat(server): authenticate server-side git clone and fetch with a company-secret GitHub token (#10720)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Repo-only project workspaces are materialized by a server-side `git
clone`, and isolated `git_worktree` runs refresh their base ref with
server-side `git fetch`
> - Both operations run outside the agent process with no credentials,
so private GitHub repositories can never be cloned or refreshed —
agent-scoped credential env bindings do not reach them
> - The company secret store already has a well-known GitHub token
convention (`GITHUB_TOKEN` / `GH_TOKEN` / `PAPERCLIP_GITHUB_TOKEN`,
consumed by the external-object provider for API reads), but nothing
server-side consults it for git
> - This pull request resolves that token per run and authenticates the
managed clone and every base-ref refresh with it through an ephemeral
credential helper
> - The benefit is that isolated workspaces work on private repositories
with one company secret, while public repositories and self-hosted
ambient git configuration keep working unchanged

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server workspace materialization (`server/src/services/heartbeat.ts`)
and execution-workspace realization
(`server/src/services/workspace-runtime.ts`).

**Problem or motivation**

A project workspace configured with only a private GitHub `repoUrl`
cannot be used for isolated `git_worktree` runs: the managed `git clone`
runs with a sanitized, credential-less environment, and plain git cannot
consume a bare token env variable without a credential helper. There is
no way to give the server a git credential — storing a `GH_TOKEN`
company secret has no effect on server-side git, and a credential-less
private clone hangs on a terminal prompt until the ten-minute clone
timeout. Base-ref refreshes (`git fetch`) during worktree realization
have the same gap.

**Proposed solution**

A `git-credentials` module resolves a token per run — company secret by
well-known name (`GITHUB_TOKEN`, `GH_TOKEN`, `PAPERCLIP_GITHUB_TOKEN`),
then `GITHUB_TOKEN`/`GH_TOKEN` in the server process environment for
self-hosted deployments, then none — and builds a git invocation that
authenticates via an inline credential helper. The token travels in an
env variable; it never appears in argv, URLs, or on disk. Only
`https://github.com` remotes are authenticated; everything else keeps
ambient behavior. The provider is a single factory seam so a future
brokered credential source can replace it without touching call sites.

**Alternatives considered**

- A GitHub OAuth "connect your account" flow: heavier product surface,
needs app registration and callback custody; out of scope for a server
credential and better served by a dedicated connector later. The
provider seam keeps that path open.
- `gh auth setup-git`: writes helper configuration to disk and requires
a global token env; rejected in favor of per-invocation config with no
persistent state.
- Embedding the token in the clone URL: leaks into argv, error messages,
and `.git/config`; rejected.

## What Changed

- New `server/src/services/git-credentials.ts`:
`createGitRemoteAuthProvider` (memoized per run, one secret resolution
and one audit event), `buildGitAuthInvocation` (helper-reset + inline
helper, `x-access-token` username, `GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT=0`),
`isGitHubHttpsRemoteUrl` host gating (rejects ssh/GHES/http/other
hosts/userinfo URLs), `describeGitAuthFailure`, and the canonical
`scrubGitCredentialText`. Secret resolutions pass a `system` consumer
access context so they are recorded as secret access events.
- `ensureManagedProjectWorkspace` (now exported) accepts an optional
auth provider; the clone env spreads the token after
`sanitizeRuntimeServiceBaseEnv` (which strips `PAPERCLIP_*`), always
sets `GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT=0`, distinguishes "credential rejected" from
"no credential configured — add a GITHUB_TOKEN or GH_TOKEN company
secret" in the error, and removes the partially created directory on
clone failure so a timeout-killed clone cannot be adopted as a broken
checkout by the next run.
- `refreshRemoteTrackingBaseRef` (now exported) captures the remote URL
it already looked up, asks the provider for an invocation, and
attributes failed authenticated fetches to the credential in a scrubbed
warning. The optional provider threads through `detectDefaultBranch`,
`resolveAuthoritativeBaseRef`, `inspectExecutionWorkspaceBaseDrift`,
`realizeExecutionWorkspace`, and
`ensurePersistedExecutionWorkspaceAvailable`; heartbeat builds one
provider per run for both the anchor-resolution clone path and workspace
realization/restore.
- `github-external-object-provider.ts` imports the shared secret-name
list; `isGitHubDotCom` is exported from `github-fetch.ts`.
- Docs: "Private repositories and repo-only project workspaces" section
in the execution-workspaces guide, cross-linked from the secrets deploy
doc.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/git-credentials.test.ts` —
resolution chain order and precedence, env fallback, memoization,
audited access context, host-gating matrix, invocation shape (token
absent from argv), scrubber, failure descriptions, and a real-git `git
credential fill` round trip that proves the helper executes and answers
with the env-carried token (no network).
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-managed-clone-credentials.test.ts` — clones
behave byte-identically with no provider or a null-returning provider
(local repos, no network), authenticated-failure errors name the
credential, non-auth failures do not mention credentials, partial clone
directories are removed, pre-existing non-git directories keep the
"Using it as-is" path, and the sanitizer spread order keeps the token
env alive.
- `cd server && npx vitest run src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts`
— new `refreshRemoteTrackingBaseRef` cases: provider offered the remote
URL and null keeps behavior identical; failed authenticated fetch
warning names the credential; unauthenticated failure warning stays
credential-free.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` is clean.
- Manual (optional, networked): store a `GH_TOKEN` company secret,
configure a repo-only project workspace pointing at a private GitHub
repository, run an isolated-workspace issue — the managed clone succeeds
and the worktree run proceeds.

## Risks

- Every new parameter is optional; with no provider the git invocations
are byte-identical to before. Public repos and ambient credential
helpers keep working whenever no token resolves.
- Precedence change when a token exists: a stored company secret now
wins over ambient helpers for `https://github.com` remotes (the helper
list is reset for that invocation). The rejected-credential error names
the secret so an operator can fix or remove it.
- `GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT=0` on the managed clone is the one always-on
change: a credential-less private clone now fails fast with a clear
message instead of hanging until the ten-minute timeout (it could only
ever "succeed" interactively on a TTY dev server).
- The token is scoped to the git process env for one invocation; it is
never written to agent env, run context, disk, or logs, and error text
is scrubbed of URL userinfo.
- No migrations, no image changes (git ships in the image).

Devin Foley 97590ff8c4 feat(dev): add pnpm dev:mobile and dev:both for prebuilt UI preview (#10718)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The board UI is a React SPA served by the paperclip server; the
standard local dev flow is `pnpm dev`, which runs vite in dev mode with
HMR and an unbundled module graph
> - The unbundled dev bundle is hundreds of MB of JS across many
requests, which is fine on a local machine but unusable from a phone or
tablet on slow/lossy links (airplane wifi, mobile data, distant tailnet
peers)
> - Contributors who want to iterate on the board from a mobile device
today have no supported way to preview a small production-shaped bundle
without stopping the dev server and running a one-off `vite preview`
with manual proxy plumbing
> - This pull request adds `pnpm dev:mobile` — build the UI and serve
`ui/dist` via `vite preview` on port 3101, with `/api` proxied to the
running dev server on 3100 — plus `pnpm dev:both` to run both flavors
together
> - The benefit is a supported second flavor of the dev server for
phones/tablets that runs alongside the normal one, without touching the
primary `pnpm dev` flow

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

ui/ — React + Vite board UI

**Problem or motivation**

The vite dev server serves an unbundled module graph, which is fine on
localhost but unusable from a phone or tablet on a slow link.
Contributors testing responsive behavior on mobile devices have no
supported way to serve a small production-shaped SPA against the running
dev API. Running `vite preview` directly does not work either — the
server's board mutation guard checks that the browser's Origin matches
the request Host, and a preview on a second port would fail every
mutation.

**Proposed solution**

Add two root scripts:

- `pnpm dev:mobile` — build `ui/dist` and serve it via `vite preview` on
port 3101, with `/api` proxied to the API server on 3100.
- `pnpm dev:both` — run `pnpm dev` and `pnpm dev:mobile` together in a
single terminal with prefixed output and shared signal handling.

The vite preview config binds `0.0.0.0`, sets `allowedHosts: true` so it
accepts arbitrary hostnames (LAN, tailnet, ngrok, etc.), and the shared
`/api` proxy forwards the client's original Host header as
`x-forwarded-host`. The paperclip server's mutation guard already
prefers `x-forwarded-host` over `host` when computing trusted origins,
so the browser's Origin becomes trusted automatically.

**Alternatives considered**

- Bespoke node proxy script — works but duplicates what vite preview
already does.
- Loosen the mutation guard to accept arbitrary origins — reduces
security for the primary server for the sake of a dev-only workflow.
- Second server config that binds a second port from the paperclip
server itself — much larger change and mixes runtime concerns with a
dev-tooling convenience.

## What Changed

- New `pnpm dev:mobile` script — build UI then run `vite preview` on
port 3101.
- New `pnpm dev:both` script — run `pnpm dev` and `pnpm dev:mobile`
together via `scripts/dev-both.mjs`, which prefixes each child's output,
propagates SIGINT/SIGTERM, and exits when either child exits.
- `ui/vite.config.ts` — add a `preview` block (port 3101, host
`0.0.0.0`, `allowedHosts: true`, shared `/api` proxy).
- New `ui/src/lib/vite-api-proxy.ts` — extracts the `/api` proxy factory
shared by dev and preview, and forwards the client Host as
`x-forwarded-host` (plus `x-forwarded-proto`).
- New unit test `ui/src/lib/vite-api-proxy.test.ts` covering the
header-injection behavior and the pass-through when no Host is present.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/lib/vite-api-proxy.test.ts` — 3 tests pass.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — clean.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build` — clean.
- Manual: ran `vite preview` against an echo listener and confirmed the
request arrives with `x-forwarded-host` set to the client Host header
and `x-forwarded-proto: http`. Then ran `pnpm dev:mobile` against the
live dev server and verified board mutations (mark issue read, resolve
recovery action, run routine) succeed from a second-port browser session
that previously 403'd.

## Risks

Low risk. Changes are limited to dev tooling — no runtime code paths, no
server changes, no schema/migrations. The `apiProxy` refactor is a no-op
behaviorally for the existing dev server (same target, same `ws: true`);
the only new behavior is the two `x-forwarded-*` headers, and the server
side already prefers those headers when trusting origins. `dev:mobile`
and `dev:both` are additive; existing `pnpm dev` is untouched.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 185515c97b fix(external-objects): refresh PR status labels (#10704)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The issue properties panel can show external objects such as GitHub
pull requests.
> - Those objects are resolved by external-object providers and then
displayed as compact status labels.
> - A GitHub pull request could remain in the fallback `unknown` state
and appear as `Not yet resolved`.
> - That label is confusing when the object is known but has not been
refreshed yet.
> - This pull request refreshes due external objects from the heartbeat
scheduler and improves the unknown-status copy.
> - The benefit is a properties panel that moves from pending refresh to
the real pull request state without a manual refresh.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this bug. I searched for related
public issues and pull requests using the terms `Not yet refreshed`,
`external objects refresh`, and `external PR status`, and did not find a
duplicate implementation.

**What happened?**

The issue properties panel could show a GitHub pull request as `Not yet
resolved` even when the referenced pull request was valid. The object
stayed stale unless a manual refresh path ran.

**Expected behavior**

A known external object should show pending-refresh copy while it waits
for provider data. When the scheduler refreshes it, the properties panel
should show the provider status such as open, merged, or closed.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create or view an issue that references a GitHub pull request.
2. Open the issue properties panel.
3. Observe the external object row before a manual refresh has run.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Current `master` before this pull request.

**Deployment mode**

Local dev and self-hosted server.

**Installation method**

Built from source.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Not adapter-specific.

**Database mode**

Not database-related.

**Access context**

Board view.

**Privacy checklist**

I reviewed this description and did not include logs, credentials,
private URLs, internal issue IDs, or PII.

## What Changed

- Added a heartbeat scheduler tick that refreshes due external objects
for active companies.
- Kept manual external-object refresh behavior on the same service path.
- Changed display copy so known provider objects use liveness labels
such as `Not yet refreshed`, while fresh unknown provider statuses show
`Status unavailable`.
- Added server and UI tests for scheduled refresh and label behavior.

## Verification

- `corepack pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/external-objects-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts
ui/src/components/ExternalObjectPill.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/external-objects.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server build`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build`

- `pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps`
- GitHub PR checks passed on head `0e7fcd30`
- Greptile reported 5/5 on head `0e7fcd30` with no unresolved review
threads

Notes:

- I ran recursive typecheck and build first. Both hit container resource
limits with exit 137 during concurrent package work, so I reran the
affected server and UI targets separately.
- An unrelated workspace-runtime auto-port test fails in this container
with a PID ownership mismatch. It is outside the files changed here.

## Risks

Low to medium risk.

The scheduler does more periodic external-object work, so the main risk
is extra provider refresh load. The implementation bounds the work to
active companies, due non-terminal objects, and 50 objects per company
per tick. The path also stays behind the external-objects experimental
setting.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5 Codex in the Codex execution environment, with shell and
GitHub CLI tool use. The runtime did not expose a more specific internal
model ID or context window.

Devin Foley 7a3815eb9a fix(heartbeat): surface the real cause when a git_worktree base cannot be materialized (#10719)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Heartbeat runs prepare an execution workspace for each issue; with
isolated workspaces (or low-trust runs), the `git_worktree` strategy
needs a real git checkout as its base
> - For repo-only project workspaces, the server materializes the
checkout with a managed `git clone`; when that clone fails, the resolver
drops the error and silently falls back to the agent home directory with
`source: "project_primary"`
> - The pre-dispatch guard then reports
`git_worktree_base_not_git_checkout`, which hides the real cause; if the
fallback directory happens to be a git checkout, the run silently builds
worktrees off the wrong repository
> - This pull request records materialization failures on the resolved
workspace, marks the fallback explicitly, and fails the guard with a
truthful `git_worktree_base_materialization_failed` reason that carries
the clone error
> - The benefit is that operators see the real cause (a failed clone) in
the run error, the blocked-issue comment, and the recovery next action,
instead of a misleading symptom

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An issue configured for isolated `git_worktree` execution on a project
whose only workspace is repo-only (a `repoUrl` with no local path) fails
every run with `workspace_validation_failed` and reason
`git_worktree_base_not_git_checkout`, pointing at the agent home
directory. The message does not mention that the managed `git clone` of
the project repository failed (for a private repository the clone can
never succeed without credentials). The recovery flow then blocks the
issue with the same misleading explanation. Run warnings claim "Project
workspace has no local cwd configured" even though the workspace is
configured and the clone failed.

**Expected behavior**

The run failure, the blocked-issue comment, and the recovery next action
should state the real cause: the project workspace checkout could not be
prepared, including the clone error, so the operator can repair the
repository URL, clone access, or configured local cwd. A fallback
directory that happens to be a git checkout must not let the run proceed
against the wrong repository.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a project whose primary workspace has a `repoUrl` pointing at
a private GitHub repository and no local path.
2. Enable the Isolated Workspaces experimental setting (or use a
low-trust run, which forces isolation).
3. Run any issue in that project.
4. The run fails with `git_worktree_base_not_git_checkout` on the agent
home directory; the clone failure appears nowhere.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` (bd86dbe41b).

## What Changed

- `resolveAnchorWorkspaceForRun` collects every failed project-workspace
materialization attempt (previously the error was dropped unless the row
was the preferred workspace) and returns two new fields on
`ResolvedWorkspaceForRun`: `baseCwdFallback` and
`materializationFailures`. The `source` label is unchanged because
session migration keys off `source === "project_primary"`.
- `assertGitWorktreeBaseWorkspaceReady` accepts the anchor facts and
fails with the new reason `git_worktree_base_materialization_failed` —
checked before the git-checkout probe, so a fallback directory that
happens to be a git repo can no longer host worktrees for the wrong
repository. The message carries the first scrubbed clone error and
remediation, and lands in `run.error`, the persisted
`workspaceValidation` payload, and the blocked-issue comment.
- New `scrubGitCredentialText` masks URL userinfo (a `repoUrl` can
legitimately embed credentials today) before errors reach warnings or
persisted payloads.
- Fallback warning assembly moved into the pure helper
`buildAnchorFallbackWorkspaceNotes`; a clone failure now produces
"Failed to prepare the project workspace checkout: …" instead of the
false "no local cwd configured", with the existing warning texts
preserved byte-for-byte when nothing failed to materialize.
- The workspace-validation recovery comment and the recovery service's
next action explain the new reason specifically.

## Verification

- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-session.test.ts` — new cases: the new
reason takes precedence over the git-checkout probe (fallback cwd is a
real git repo), payload carries the scrubbed failures, anchor-absent
legacy behavior unchanged, scrubber unit tests, and warning-assembly
unit tests that pin the existing texts.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-retry-scheduling.test.ts` — recovery surfaces
still pass.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` is clean.

## Risks

- Additive persisted-payload fields and a new reason string; recovery
reason handling falls through to generic text for unknown reasons, and
no UI consumes the `git_worktree_base_*` strings.
- Intentional behavior change: a repo-only project whose clone fails and
whose agent-home fallback happened to be a git checkout previously ran
in that unrelated repository; it now fails with the truthful reason. A
test locks this.
- Runs without isolated workspaces (the default) never reach the guard;
their fallback behavior is unchanged.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 799973f26a fix(ui): hide empty inbox search sections (#10700)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Inbox helps operators scan issues that need attention.
> - Inbox search can add supplemental sections for archived matches and
other matches.
> - The supplemental search section builder still sent empty sections
into the grouped render path.
> - That made the Archived and Other results dividers appear even when
those sections had no rows.
> - This pull request drops empty supplemental sections before
rendering.
> - The benefit is a cleaner near-empty inbox search view.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this report. Public GitHub search
found no duplicate or related open issues or pull requests for this
inbox search behavior.

**What happened?**

Inbox search could show Archived and Other results divider headers even
when those supplemental sections had no rows.

**Expected behavior**

Empty supplemental search sections should not render divider headers.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open the Inbox.
2. Search in a near-empty inbox with no archived matches and no
outside-inbox matches.
3. Observe that empty supplemental divider headers can appear.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` before this change.

**Deployment mode**

Built from source.

## What Changed

- Dropped empty supplemental inbox search sections before they reach the
grouped inbox render path.
- Added a unit regression test for empty Archived and Other results
sections.
- Refreshed the branch against current `master` to clear the merge
conflict.

## Verification

- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD` passed.
- Public diff is limited to `ui/src/lib/inbox.ts` and
`ui/src/lib/inbox.test.ts`.
- Local focused Vitest could not run in this execution checkout because
dependencies are not installed and `corepack pnpm exec vitest ...`
reports `Command "vitest" not found`.
- Pull request CI is green for typecheck, build, server tests, e2e,
security checks, policy checks, canary dry run, and aggregate verify.
- Greptile Review passed on commit `dc2e224` with confidence score 5/5
and no comments.

## Risks

Low risk. The Inbox change only filters empty supplemental search
sections. Normal inbox sections and non-empty archived or other search
results keep their current behavior.

> 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. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

Devin FoleyandCody bd86dbe41b fix(codex-local): detect server-visible Codex credentials in ACP environment test (#10703)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The codex-local adapter runs Codex agents through the ACP lane and
offers a "Test" button on the agent configuration page to validate the
environment
> - The environment test used its own ad-hoc credential probe, while
real dispatch uses the shared `evaluateCodexCredentialReadiness`
predicate in `codex-home.ts`
> - The two paths disagreed: a user with valid Codex subscription auth
in the shared, server-visible Codex home still saw "No Codex ACP
credentials were detected"
> - The old warning also suggested `codex login` without explaining that
a `/login` in a separate Codex or chat session does not authenticate the
Paperclip server process
> - This pull request makes `testCodexAcpEnvironment` use the same
shared readiness predicate as real dispatch and rewords the warning to
name the server credential boundary
> - The benefit is that the Test button now agrees with what dispatch
will actually do, and the warning tells the user exactly which process
needs the credentials

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this bug. Related credential-handling
work, not duplicates: Refs #10160 (classifies OpenAI invalid-key 401s at
dispatch time) and Refs #9598 (classifies Codex refresh auth failures).
Both cover dispatch-time failures; this PR fixes the pre-dispatch
environment test.

Description follows the bug report template:

**What happened?**

A user configured a Codex ACP agent and had already authenticated Codex
(subscription auth present in the shared Codex home visible to the
Paperclip server). Clicking "Test" on the agent configuration page still
reported:

`warn: No Codex ACP credentials were detected. Hint: Set OPENAI_API_KEY
or run codex login before starting a Codex ACP agent.`

**Expected behavior**

The environment test should detect the same credentials that real agent
dispatch would use. When shared managed Codex auth is available, the
test should pass with an informational check instead of warning. When
credentials really are missing, the warning should explain that the
Paperclip server process is the one that needs them.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run the Paperclip server as an OS user whose shared Codex home
contains valid subscription `auth.json` (no `OPENAI_API_KEY` in the
adapter env or server env).
2. Configure an agent with the codex-local adapter using the ACP engine.
3. Click "Test" on the agent configuration page.
4. Observe the `codex_acp_credentials_missing` warning even though
dispatch would succeed.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Codex

**Additional context**

The confusion was amplified by the hint: users had run `/login` in a
Codex chat session and assumed the server was authenticated. That login
lives in a different process and home directory, so the server never saw
it.

## What Changed

- `testCodexAcpEnvironment`
(packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/acp.ts) now calls the shared
`evaluateCodexCredentialReadiness` predicate from `codex-home.ts`
instead of a local ad-hoc `hasCodexNativeCredentials` probe, so the Test
button and real dispatch agree.
- An explicit empty `OPENAI_API_KEY` in the adapter config env no longer
falls through to the server environment key.
- An externally managed `CODEX_HOME` override is now reported as its own
informational check (`codex_acp_external_home_configured`).
- The `codex_acp_credentials_missing` warning now says the credentials
must be visible to the Paperclip server, and the hint explains that a
`/login` in a separate Codex or chat session does not authenticate the
server.
- Removed the now-unused `hasCodexNativeCredentials` helper.
- Added two regression tests: shared managed Codex auth is detected (no
false warning), and the missing-credentials warning carries the new
server-boundary wording.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclip/adapter-codex-local test --
src/server/acp.test.ts` — the two new tests cover the shared-home
detection branch and the new warning wording; the existing ACP lane
tests cover the API-key and remote-target branches.
- Manual: with subscription auth in the server-visible shared Codex home
and no `OPENAI_API_KEY`, the agent configuration Test now reports
`codex_acp_native_auth_detected` (info) instead of
`codex_acp_credentials_missing` (warn).

## Risks

- Low risk. The change only affects the environment test path, not
dispatch. The readiness predicate is the same one dispatch already uses,
so drift between the two paths is now structurally prevented.
- Behavioral shift: an explicit empty adapter `OPENAI_API_KEY` no longer
silently falls back to the server env key in the test result. This
matches dispatch behavior and is intentional.

## Model Used

- Implementation authored by OpenAI Codex (gpt-5.5) running through the
Codex ACP lane with tool use.
- PR preparation, rebase onto master, and review fix-up by Anthropic
Claude (Claude Code CLI agent, extended thinking, tool use).

Devin Foley 8b83d69e3c feat(heartbeat): serialize shared-workspace issue runs with bounded busy deferrals (#10699)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The heartbeat service dispatches agent runs, and issues in a project
can share one project workspace (one working tree on disk).
> - Two runs can execute in the same shared workspace at the same time.
Each run mutates the same uncommitted files and branches, and the runs
corrupt each other's state.
> - Multi-agent projects hit this as soon as two issues in one project
become active together, so the platform needs to serialize
shared-workspace execution instead of relying on luck.
> - This pull request adds a pre-dispatch gate: a run whose issue
targets a busy shared workspace is deferred with a bounded scheduled
retry instead of dispatched.
> - The benefit is that concurrent issue runs in one project take turns
in the shared working tree, while isolated-workspace runs and unrelated
workspaces stay fully parallel.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes #10645

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/heartbeat.ts`:
- New pre-dispatch gate in the run executor. Before adapter dispatch,
when the run's issue has a `projectWorkspaceId` and the effective
execution workspace mode is `shared_workspace`, the executor looks for a
holder: another `running` run whose context issue shares the same
project workspace. The gate covers every run shape that reaches adapter
dispatch with issue context — assignee execution runs, comment/mention
interaction wakes, and review-participant runs.
- When a holder exists, the run throws `WorkspaceBusyDeferral` instead
of dispatching. The outer catch recognizes the deferral: it cancels the
run with `errorCode: "workspace_busy"` (contention is not a failure),
cancels its wakeup, schedules a retry through the existing
`scheduleBoundedRetryForRun` primitive (`workspace_busy` reason, 60–120
s jittered delay), and returns the agent to idle. The issue execution
lock transfers to the scheduled retry run, so the issue keeps an active
execution path and stranded-issue recovery does not fire.
- An adapter never dispatches alongside a live holder: deferral has no
attempt ceiling, so a deferred run keeps rescheduling until the
workspace frees. Deadlock safety comes from holder liveness, not a
counter — a holder silent past
`ACTIVE_RUN_OUTPUT_SUSPICION_THRESHOLD_MS` (recovery's own "suspicious
silence" bar, 1 h) stops counting as a holder, so a zombie run can only
delay work, never park it forever, and recovery's silent-run escalation
is already reaping it in parallel. If no retry can be scheduled (agent
paused, issue reassigned), the deferral releases the issue execution
lock so the issue does not strand.
- Holder detection honors isolation: when the isolated-workspaces
experiment is enabled, holders whose issue settings select
`isolated_workspace` / `operator_branch` (or the legacy `isolated`
alias) are not counted, because they never touch the shared tree. A NULL
or `agent_default` mode counts as a holder — over-serializing is the
safe direction.
- Non-assignee deferrals survive replay: the deferral stamps
`workspaceBusyDeferredWhileAssignee` into the run context (inherited by
the scheduled retry), and both the retry promotion gate and the
claim-time staleness check exempt a non-assignee `workspace_busy` retry
from the reassignment cancellation — for such a retry an assignee
mismatch is the expected state, not a reassignment race. An assignee
run's retry keeps the full protection: if the issue is reassigned while
the retry pends, it still cancels with `issue_reassigned`.
- `server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-busy.test.ts` (new):
embedded-Postgres coverage of the full lifecycle plus unit coverage of
the delay window.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-busy.test.ts` — 10 tests:
- a run whose issue targets a busy shared workspace is cancelled with
`workspace_busy`, its adapter never executes, a `scheduled_retry` run
exists with the 60–120 s window, the issue execution lock points at the
retry run, the holder run is untouched, and the agent returns to idle;
- after the holder finishes, `promoteDueScheduledRetries` +
`resumeQueuedRuns` execute the retry run to success;
- a non-assignee comment-mention wake defers, does not touch the issue
execution lock, and its retry promotes, survives the claim-time
staleness check, and executes despite the assignee mismatch;
- an assignee retry is still cancelled with `issue_reassigned` when the
issue is reassigned while the retry pends;
- a holder issue with `executionWorkspaceSettings.mode =
"isolated_workspace"` does not cause deferral;
- a running run in a different project workspace does not cause
deferral;
- a holder silent past the staleness threshold does not cause deferral
(the run executes);
- a retry with ten prior deferrals still defers again — never dispatches
— while the holder is live;
- delay jitter stays inside the base-to-base-plus-jitter window and
clamps out-of-range random sources.
- `cd server && pnpm vitest run src/__tests__/heartbeat-` — full
heartbeat suite sweep.
- `cd server && pnpm run typecheck`.

## Risks

- Behavioral shift: shared-workspace runs that used to start immediately
now wait for the workspace to free. Against a long-running live holder
the wait is unbounded by design — the alternative is dispatching into a
held working tree, which is the corruption this PR removes. Every
deferral is visible in the run timeline (lifecycle event with the holder
run, issue, and attempt number), and the wake is parked, never dropped.
- A zombie holder (a `running` row whose process died) delays contending
runs by up to the 1 h staleness threshold before it stops counting.
Recovery's silent-run escalation targets the same run on the same clock,
so this window matches what the system already tolerates for silent
active runs.
- The holder check and the dispatch are not atomic; two runs that pass
the gate in the same instant can still race. The gate closes the common
window (a second run waking while the first is mid-execution); the
pre-existing sync-conflict handling remains the backstop for the rare
simultaneous start.
- No schema change, no API change, no new configuration.

Devin Foley 6008482aab fix(decisions): remove clock race from sweep-expiry tests (#10701)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The decisions service lets agents propose decisions with a TTL, and
a sweep expires them.
> - Four sweep tests create decisions that expire 5 ms in the future,
then race the service's own clock read.
> - On a loaded CI runner more than 5 ms routinely elapse before
validation, so `create` itself rejects the decision and the test fails
on unrelated PRs.
> - This pull request makes the expiry deterministic: create with a
comfortable future TTL, then move `expiresAt` into the past directly in
the store.
> - The benefit is that the decisions suite stops failing intermittently
and stops blocking unrelated PRs.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No open issue exists; the defect is described here following the bug
template.

**What happened?**

`decisions-service.test.ts` fails intermittently in CI with `expiresAt
must be within 30 days` in `bounds expiration work to the configured
batch size` and `falls back to the default sweep batch size for invalid
configuration`. The failure hits unrelated PRs — for example the `PR`
workflow runs for #10699 failed three times on this suite while the same
suite passes locally.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run `pnpm vitest run src/__tests__/decisions-service.test.ts` on a
machine under load (or add a ~10 ms delay inside
`decisionService.create` before the expiry validation).
2. The test builds `expiresAt: new Date(Date.now() + 5)`; by the time
`create` validates, `expiresAt.getTime() <= Date.now()` is true.
3. `create` throws `expiresAt must be within 30 days` (the past-expiry
branch of the validator) and the test fails before the sweep runs.

**Expected behavior**

The sweep tests exercise expiry deterministically and never depend on
fewer than 5 ms elapsing between two clock reads in different modules.

**Paperclip version**

master (`717684ad8f`); the tests landed with the decisions desk workflow
in #10672.

**Deployment mode**

Not deployment-specific — CI and local test runs.

## What Changed

- `server/src/__tests__/decisions-service.test.ts`: added two helpers —
`nearFutureExpiry()` (a 60 s TTL that passes validation with a wide
margin) and `expireDecisionNow(id)` (moves the stored `expiresAt` into
the past). The four affected tests create decisions with the future TTL,
force-expire them through the store, and drop the 10 ms sleeps. The
sweep observes the same expired state as before with no scheduler-timing
dependence.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm vitest run src/__tests__/decisions-service.test.ts`
— five consecutive local runs, 31/31 passing each.
- No production code changed; the diff is test-only.

## Risks

- Low risk: test-only change. The force-expire helper writes the store
directly, which is the same technique other TTL suites use to avoid
sleeping through real time.

Devin Foley 2ffebd4836 Test adapters in the environment a run would actually use (#10698)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents execute in environments — local, SSH, or sandboxes — resolved
at run time as agent environment → instance default → local
> - The Configuration page has a Test button that probes the adapter
(working directory, command, a model call) in the environment it will
run in
> - But the Test sent only the agent's own environment id, with no
instance-default fallback, so agents relying on the instance default
were probed on the Paperclip host instead
> - A sandbox image carrying an extra CLI then fails the Test with
"command not found" even though every real run would resolve to the
sandbox and succeed — the Test lies about a working setup
> - This pull request mirrors the run-time resolution in the Test call
via a small shared helper with tests
> - The benefit is that the Test button reports the truth about where
the agent actually runs

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing public issue — inline description following the bug report
template:

**What happened?**

With the instance default environment set to a sandbox (whose image
includes the adapter CLI) and an agent that leaves its environment unset
("use instance default"), the Configuration page's Test fails with
`command not found` for that CLI.

**Expected behavior**

The Test probes the environment a real run would use — here the
instance-default sandbox, where the CLI exists — and passes.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Set the instance default environment to a sandbox whose image carries
an adapter CLI not installed on the Paperclip host (e.g. `grok`).
2. Create a `grok_local` agent without selecting an environment.
3. Press Test on the agent's Configuration page → `command not found`,
while a real heartbeat run resolves to the sandbox and works.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on `sha-53bcf38-cloud`-era master; root-caused in
`ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.tsx` (`environmentId =
currentDefaultEnvironmentId || null`) versus the server's
`resolveExecutionWorkspaceEnvironmentId` (agent → instance default →
local).

## What Changed

- New `ui/src/lib/adapter-test-environment.ts`:
`resolveAdapterTestEnvironmentId` — agent environment first, else
instance default, else null (host probe) — documented as the mirror of
the server's run-time resolution.
- `AgentConfigForm` uses it in the Test mutation. The raw agent
environment id is now sent even when it points at the local environment:
the server already resolves the driver and probes the host for local, so
explicit-local behavior is unchanged, and the test-environment route's
remote paths (SSH/sandbox lease + custom-image template) engage exactly
as they do for the fallback environment.
- Tests pin the fallback (agent wins; instance default when agent unset;
null when neither).

Deliberately untouched: the onboarding wizard's adapter test still sends
no environment — during onboarding an instance default frequently
doesn't exist yet, and changing that flow deserves its own look.

## Verification

- `vitest run` on the new helper suite plus both `AgentConfigForm`
suites — 19 tests pass; `tsc` clean in `ui/`.
- Root cause verified against a live deployment: an agent with
`default_environment_id = NULL`, instance default = sandbox environment;
the Test posted `environmentId: null` and probed the host (no `Probing
inside environment: …` check in the result), which lacks the CLI that
the sandbox image carries.

## Risks

- Low. The change only widens which environment the Test probes,
matching run-time reality. Sandbox-backed tests boot a throwaway sandbox
(existing route behavior — lease, custom-image template,
archive-on-release), so Tests for instance-default-sandbox agents now
take sandbox-boot time instead of failing fast and wrongly.

## Model Used

Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`, extended thinking, via Claude Code
with tool use and code execution); diagnosis included live inspection of
a deployed instance's agent/environment configuration.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 8540ce2973 ci: shard general-server tests 4 ways (#10663)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Pull request CI must give contributors fast and stable feedback.
> - The `general-server` Vitest lane runs many single-worker server
suites.
> - A recent completed PR run showed this lane as the slowest completed
check.
> - Three shards still left one runner with the largest share of work.
> - This pull request splits that lane into four duration-balanced
shards.
> - The benefit is a shorter critical path for the same server test
coverage.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this CI maintenance change.

**Pre-submission checklist**

- I confirmed this improves existing behavior. It does not add a new
command, endpoint, or concept.
- I searched open public issues and pull requests for related CI
sharding work.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The pull request workflow's `general-server` Vitest lane.

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting. This affects GitHub Actions CI and the Vitest shard
duration manifest.

**Current behavior**

The `general-server` lane uses three shards. The server suites now total
about 880 seconds of serial Vitest wall time. The slowest shard was
about 313 seconds in the measured run.

**Proposed behavior**

The `general-server` lane uses four shards. Each shard receives about
220 seconds of predicted suite weight from the refreshed duration
manifest.

**Reason and benefit**

The slowest PR check controls how soon a reviewer can trust the PR. Four
balanced shards reduce the slowest `general-server` shard while keeping
the same suite selection rules.

**Breaking changes**

None. This only changes CI partitioning and duration data for existing
test suites.

**Additional context**

Related public searches found no exact open issue or pull request for
this `general-server` sharding change.

## What Changed

- Split the `general-server` CI matrix from three shards to four shards.
- Refreshed `scripts/general-server-shard-durations.json` with wall-time
weights from a recent completed PR run.

## Verification

- `node --test scripts/__tests__/run-vitest-stable-shard.test.mjs`
- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD`
- Dry-ran the four `general-server` shards locally during
implementation. The partition covers 300 unique suites with about 220.56
seconds of predicted weight per shard.
- Ran a local sensitive-data scan before push. It found only test
filenames that contain words such as `secret` or `token`, not credential
values.

## Risks

Low risk. The main risk is that the duration manifest becomes stale as
suite costs move. Missing suites fall back to the median weight, so the
lane still runs if the manifest is incomplete.

## Model Used

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

Devin Foley e4b0152ca3 fix(server): keep the agent invokable when a run fails on a workspace sync conflict (#10660)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents on the same project can share one `shared_workspace` clone,
and each sandbox run reconciles its git history back into it
> - When histories written by different runs genuinely diverge,
reconciliation can hit a real merge conflict — a property of the
*workspace*, not of whichever agent happened to run last
> - That agent nonetheless finalized into a sticky `error` state,
removing a healthy agent from rotation while the workspace stayed broken
— and on a shared workspace this serially knocks out every agent that
touches it
> - This pull request classifies workspace-reconciliation failure
signatures as workspace-scoped, so the run still fails with the full
message but the agent stays invokable
> - The benefit is that one bad workspace state no longer disables
agents one by one

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #10645 — this addresses the sticky-agent-error clause of that
issue. Workspace run serialization / per-agent worktrees remain tracked
there (design sketch on the issue).

## What Changed

- New exported `isWorkspaceSyncConflictFailure(message)` matching the
reconciliation failure signatures: `merge-tree` conflict ("Failed to
merge concurrent remote git histories"), integrate-retry exhaustion
("Failed to integrate concurrent remote git history"), and bundle
prerequisite failures ("did not send all necessary objects", "lacks
these prerequisite commits").
- Both run-failure finalization paths (adapter returned a failed result;
adapter threw) pass `keepIdleOnFailure` for these signatures — the same
mechanism already used for provider-quota failures — so the agent
finalizes to `idle` instead of `error`. The run itself still fails and
carries the full message; nothing about run reporting changes.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-session.test.ts` — new
signature matrix (4 positive signatures, negatives for unrelated adapter
failures and null/empty); 121 tests total.
- `cd server && pnpm run typecheck`.

## Risks

- Low. The only change is which failure families put the agent into
`error`; behavior for every other failure is untouched. A workspace
stuck in conflict still fails every run against it (visible on the runs
surface) — it just no longer takes agents down with it.

Devin Foley 592cade5a6 feat(server): trigger the push-capability preflight from the issue's stated PR deliverable (#10659)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Runs that must push to GitHub have a pre-dispatch credential
preflight (`push_write_credential_missing`) so the missing token
surfaces as a configuration-incomplete blocker instead of a late runtime
failure
> - The preflight only triggers when the issue mentions the GitHub PR
workflow *skill* — routine-created issues and agent-to-agent handoffs
rarely do, even when their text literally says "push the branch and open
a PR"
> - In practice the credential gap then surfaced only after
implementation and review were complete, stranding finished work
> - This pull request adds a conservative, verb-anchored text heuristic
over the issue title and description as a second preflight trigger
> - The benefit is that the credential ask reaches the human before any
work is burned

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes #10644 (completes the prevention set with #10648, #10650, #10658)

## What Changed

- `issueTextImpliesPrDeliverable(text)`: matches verb-anchored
deliverable statements — "open/create/raise/submit a (draft) pull
request/PR", "push … branch/remote/origin/upstream". Verb anchoring
deliberately ignores passing mentions ("the PR merged yesterday", "PR
feedback addressed").
- `requiresPushCapabilityPreflight` takes the issue's title+description
and ORs the text heuristic with the existing skill-mention trigger;
adapter-type and issue gating are unchanged. The run-dispatch call site
threads the already-loaded issue text — no extra query.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-session.test.ts` — new
heuristic matrix (4 positive, 6 negative including null/empty) and
preflight-by-text cases (text triggers, passing mention does not, no
issue → no preflight); 122 tests total.
- `cd server && pnpm run typecheck`.

## Risks

- A false positive turns into a configuration-incomplete blocker asking
for a GitHub token on an issue that didn't need one — the heuristic is
intentionally conservative (verb-anchored) to keep that rare, and the
blocker names the exact remediation.
- No behavior change for issues that neither mention the skill nor state
a PR deliverable.

Devin Foley ddbcf53e31 fix(server): refuse agent delegation cycles back to an open ancestor's creator (#10658)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents decompose work by creating child issues assigned to other
agents
> - When two agents each lack a capability the other assumed (e.g.
neither can push to GitHub), each can "resolve" its blocker by
delegating the same step to the other: A creates a child for B, B
creates a grandchild back for A
> - Nothing detects the cycle; the chain of blocked issues grows and no
signal reaches the human who could actually fix the capability gap
> - This pull request refuses agent-initiated child creation when the
child's assignee is the creator of a still-open ancestor in the same
chain — a mechanical, semantics-free cycle signal
> - The benefit is that the hot-potato dies at creation time with an
actionable error instead of growing a dead chain

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes #10642 (write-time counterpart: #10648 refuses assignment to
paused agents; the credential-gap *preflight* side is tracked separately
in #10644)

## What Changed

- `issueService.findOpenAncestorCreatedByAgent(parentIssueId, agentId,
{maxDepth})`: bounded walk up the parent chain looking for a still-open
(not done/cancelled) ancestor created by the given agent.
- Agent-initiated issue creation with a parent (both the
create-with-`parentId` route and `POST /issues/:id/children`) now
refuses with a structured 409 (`code: delegation_cycle`, naming the
ancestor) when the new child would be assigned to the agent that created
a still-open ancestor: that agent delegated the work into this chain, so
assigning it back is a cycle. The message states the alternatives —
complete the work, leave the child unassigned, or escalate to a board
operator.
- Deliberately unaffected: human actors (deliberate re-routing is their
call), closed ancestors (re-engaging the creator of finished work is
normal), and accepted-plan decomposition (its children come from a
human-approved plan).

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-assignee-invokability-routes.test.ts` — cycle
refused with 409 and no create call; the same child allowed when no open
ancestor matches; board actors never consult the guard.
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/issues-service.test.ts` — new
embedded-Postgres coverage: ancestor found through the chain, closed
ancestors ignored, depth bound honored (114 total).
- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-create-deduplication-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts` —
unchanged (79).
- `cd server && pnpm run typecheck`.

## Risks

- Low-to-moderate: a new 409 for a creation shape that previously
succeeded. The blocked shape (agent assigns new work to the creator of
an open ancestor) is the cycle signature; the legitimate "hand a subtask
to the parent's assignee" pattern is unaffected because it keys on
assignee, not creator. Watchdog and plan-decomposition flows are exempt
or unaffected as described.
- The walk adds at most `maxDepth` (10) single-row lookups per agent
child creation with an assignee.

Devin Foley 3dec88ce90 feat(agents): warn when an agent's escalation path routes to a paused manager (#10657)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents escalate work up the org chart (`reports_to`), and operators
pause agents — notably, instance imports pause every agent by default
> - A paused manager does not invalidate the chain (subordinates stay
invokable), so nothing surfaces when an operator unpauses workers but
leaves their manager paused
> - Escalations then dead-letter silently: agent-created issues assigned
to the paused manager sit in a queue nothing will ever run
> - This pull request computes paused ancestors in the existing
org-chain health model and surfaces a non-blocking warning on the agent
read models and detail page
> - The benefit is that the operator learns their escalation paths are
dead before work vanishes into them

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes #10647 (companion to #10648, which refuses agent-initiated
assignment to paused agents at write time — this PR makes the standing
hazard visible)

## What Changed

- `AgentOrgChainHealth` gains two additive, optional fields:
`pausedAncestors` (paused agents in the `reports_to` chain) and
`escalationWarning` (human-readable, only set when the agent itself can
work — a paused/terminated agent's escalation path is moot). Chain
validity, invokability, and assignability are byte-identical.
- No server route changes needed: the fields flow through every existing
agent read model (list, detail, org chart) since they ride the same
`getAgentWorkEligibility` computation.
- Agent detail page shows an amber "Escalation path is paused" banner
(same visual language as the invalid-chain banner, but non-blocking)
with the warning text naming the paused manager and the two remedies.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run packages/shared/src/agent-eligibility.test.ts` — 5
new cases: paused direct manager warns; paused grandparent through a
healthy manager warns; the agent itself paused → no warning (but
ancestors still reported); fully active chain → no warning, empty list;
terminated ancestor keeps the invalid-chain classification without
double-counting as paused.
- Full `@paperclipai/shared` suite (392 tests) and
`agent-eligibility-routes` (54) unchanged.
- `tsc --noEmit` in shared, server, and ui.

## Risks

- Low. Purely additive fields plus one UI banner; no behavior gates on
the new data.

Devin Foley a0dbe21045 fix(server): stand down recovery while an operator-cancelled run is the latest activity (#10656)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Operators can cancel a running agent from the board when a run is
unwanted — most acutely while cleaning up a runaway loop
> - The recovery machinery treats a cancelled run like any other
unsuccessful terminal run: the stranded-issue sweep classifies the issue
as stranded, creates a recovery action, and wakes the agent again
> - So cancelling runs to stop a loop *fed* the loop: each operator
cancel spawned a recovery action that re-woke the agent the operator had
just stopped
> - This pull request stamps board-initiated cancellations with operator
attribution and makes the sweep stand down while such a run is the
issue's latest activity
> - The benefit is that an operator's cancel is final until something
new happens, instead of being fought by automation

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes #10646

## What Changed

- `POST /heartbeat-runs/:runId/cancel` (board-only) now cancels with an
explicit reason ("Cancelled by a board operator") and stamps
`resultJson.cancelledByActorType: "user"` / `cancelledByUserId`.
- `reconcileStrandedAssignedIssues` gains an early stand-down: when the
issue's latest run is operator-cancelled (the new stamp, or the existing
`operator_interrupted` error code from interrupt-by-comment), the issue
is skipped entirely — no recovery action, no wake — and counted in a new
`operatorCancelExempted` result field. The exemption is inherently
self-limiting: any newer run or wake supersedes it because the gate only
looks at the *latest* run.
- System cancellations without operator attribution (lease expiry,
assignee changes, terminal-status cancels, pause holds) keep today's
recovery behavior unchanged.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts`
(embedded Postgres) — 3 new cases: a stamped operator cancel produces
zero recovery actions and zero wakes; an `operator_interrupted` cancel
likewise; an unattributed system cancel still flows into pre-existing
recovery (wake observed), proving the stand-down is scoped to operator
attribution.
- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-scheduled-retry-routes.test.ts` — unchanged
(109 tests).
- `cd server && pnpm run typecheck`.

## Risks

- Low. The only suppressed behavior is recovery of runs a human
explicitly cancelled from the board; everything else is byte-identical.
If an operator cancels and walks away, the issue stays quiet until any
new activity — which is the intent (the operator owns the next step).

Devin Foley 0f12721ee9 fix(server): let board users cancel issues with an active review stage (#10655)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server enforces an issue execution policy. It gates status
changes while a review or approval stage is active.
> - A board user could not cancel a task while an agent reviewer held
the active stage. The API returned "Only the active reviewer or approver
can advance the current execution stage".
> - Board users own the board. They must always be able to edit and
cancel any task.
> - This pull request adds a board override to the execution stage
transition. A board cancel clears the pending stage state and proceeds
instead of raising an error.
> - The benefit is that board users can always stop work, even while a
review is pending or the stored stage state has drifted.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this bug. Description follows
`bug_report.yml`:

**What happened?**

A board user set a task to `cancelled` while the task had an active
reviewer stage held by an agent. The PATCH failed with "Task Update
Failed... only the assigned approver or reviewer...". The same failure
occurred when the stored stage state had drifted: the server silently
forced the task back to `in_review` instead of honoring the cancel.

**Expected behavior**

A board user can always edit and cancel any task. A board cancel must
clear the pending review stage and apply the requested status.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a task assigned to agent A with agent B configured as reviewer
in the execution policy.
2. Let agent A hand the task off so the review stage becomes active.
3. As the board user, set the task status to Cancelled.
4. The update fails with the reviewer-only error.

Related work: #5487 touches the execution-policy approver UI. It does
not address the board cancel path.

## What Changed

- `server/src/routes/issues.ts`: the issue PATCH route now passes
`allowBoardOverride` when the actor is a board user.
- `server/src/services/issue-execution-policy.ts`: when
`allowBoardOverride` is set and the requested status is not `in_review`
or `in_progress`, the transition clears `executionState` and proceeds.
This applies both while a stage decision is pending and when the stage
state has drifted, so a board cancel is no longer rejected or silently
flipped back to `in_review`.
- Reviewer gating is unchanged for everyone else: a board user who is
the active participant still uses the normal approve / request-changes
flow, and non-participant agents still receive the 422 guard.
- Assignee-only board updates on an `in_review` task keep the stage
state coherent: reassigning to an eligible stage participant re-pends
the stage with them as the current participant, while reassigning to a
non-participant (or unassigning) dissolves the review back to
`in_progress` instead of persisting an `in_review` issue with no
execution state or an ineligible participant.
- New unit tests and route tests cover board cancellation of an active
review stage and of a drifted pending review, plus reviewer swap,
non-participant reassignment, and unassignment during an active review.

## Verification

- In `server/`: `pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/issue-execution-policy.test.ts
src/__tests__/issue-execution-policy-routes.test.ts` — 2 files, 73/73
tests pass on top of current `master`.
- In `server/`: `pnpm run typecheck` passes.

## Risks

- Low risk. The override branch runs only for board actors and only for
target statuses other than `in_review` and `in_progress`. Cancelling
clears `executionState`, so a later reopen starts from a fresh stage
state. Agent-facing flows and reviewer gating are unchanged.

Devin Foley ada47be764 fix(server): refuse agent-initiated issue assignment to paused agents (#10648)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents can create and assign issues to other agents, and commonly
escalate to their org-chart manager (`reports_to`) when they hit
something outside their authority
> - Issue assignment already refuses terminated and pending-approval
assignees, but accepts paused assignees from any actor
> - A paused agent never runs, so agent-initiated escalations to a
paused manager become invisible dead letters — accepted silently, never
picked up, never surfaced
> - This pull request refuses paused assignees when the assigning actor
is an agent, at the single normalization helper all four assignment
paths flow through
> - The benefit is that agent-routed work can no longer silently vanish
into a paused agent's queue

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes #10641

## What Changed

- `normalizeIssueAssigneeAgentReference` (used by issue create, both
child-create routes, and issue update) now throws a 409 when an
**agent** actor assigns to a **paused** agent, with a message naming the
alternatives: assign an invokable agent, leave the issue unassigned, or
escalate to a board operator.
- Board/user actors are unchanged and may still assign to paused agents
deliberately — the pause state is visible in the UI, and staging work
for a later unpause is a legitimate workflow. Terminated /
pending-approval / invalid-org-chain refusals are unchanged for all
actors.
- This matches the existing precedent for watchdogs ("Cannot assign
watchdog to an agent that is not invokable") using the same
conflict-error shape.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-assignee-invokability-routes.test.ts` — new
coverage: agent PATCH → paused assignee 409 (no update call), agent
child-create → paused assignee 409 (no create call), agent assignment to
an invokable agent still 200, board assignment to a paused agent still
200.
- Neighboring suites unchanged: `issue-update-comment-wakeup-routes`,
`issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes`,
`issue-create-deduplication-routes`, `issue-watchdogs-routes` (97
tests).
- `cd server && pnpm run typecheck`.

## Risks

- Low. The only behavior change is a new 409 for agent actors assigning
to paused agents — previously a silent dead-letter. Agents that relied
on this (escalation flows) now get an actionable error instead; human
workflows are untouched.

Devin Foley 27f8c8dbcf feat(server): cap agent review rounds and escalate exhausted reviews to the responsible human (#10650)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Execution policies let one agent implement and another review,
cycling through changes-requested → addressed rounds
> - Nothing bounds that cycle: no round counter, no escalation, no
termination signal — two agents can ping-pong indefinitely, especially
when the review's success criteria drift to something the implementer
cannot satisfy
> - On a real multi-agent instance this produced 6+ unattended rounds
(~8 runs) that continued even after the human had merged the PR under
review
> - This pull request counts consecutive agent-initiated
changes-requested rounds and, at a configurable cap, hands the
still-pending review to the responsible human instead of bouncing back
to the implementer
> - The benefit is that unattended review loops terminate in a human
decision instead of burning runs forever

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes #10643

## What Changed

- `IssueExecutionState.changesRequestedCount` (schema + type, default
0): consecutive agent-initiated changes-requested rounds on the current
stage. Carries through executor resubmissions, resets to 0 on approval,
and resets when a **human** makes the changes-requested decision — the
cap targets unattended agent↔agent ping-pong, never human review.
- `IssueExecutionPolicy.maxReviewRounds` (optional, 1–50, default null →
server default `DEFAULT_MAX_REVIEW_ROUNDS = 3`).
- At the cap, the transition records the reviewer's changes-requested
decision as usual but keeps the stage **pending** with the responsible
human (`responsibleUserId`, falling back to `createdByUserId`) as the
participant: the issue is assigned to that human and the pending review
surfaces through the existing attention/review UI. The human then
approves, requests changes (resetting the counter and handing back to
the implementer), or re-scopes.
- The escalated hold is sticky: transitions from anyone other than the
escalated human no longer re-select a configured agent participant for
the stage (which would have silently undone the escalation on the next
unrelated PATCH). The escalated human's own decisions flow through the
normal participant decision branch.
- Issues with no responsible human keep today's hand-back behavior; the
counter still accumulates so operators can see the churn.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/issue-execution-policy.test.ts`
— 8 new cases: round counting on hand-back, count carried through
resubmission, escalation at the default cap, sticky hold across
unrelated transitions, human changes-requested resets the counter, human
approval completes the stage, no-responsible-human fallback, and a
`maxReviewRounds: 1` policy override.
- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-execution-policy-routes.test.ts` and the full
`@paperclipai/shared` suite (387 tests) — schema additions are backward
compatible (both fields optional with defaults; persisted states without
the counter parse as 0).
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared exec tsc --noEmit` and `cd server
&& pnpm run typecheck`.

## Risks

- Behavior change: an agent-only review loop that previously ran forever
now escalates to a human after 3 agent rounds by default. Instances that
want longer loops can set `maxReviewRounds` per policy. Flows where a
human participates are unaffected (human decisions reset the counter).
- Escalation requires a `responsibleUserId`/`createdByUserId` on the
issue; without one, behavior is unchanged.
- Persisted execution states from before this change parse with
`changesRequestedCount: 0` — no migration needed.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 8444e5735c ci: pass e2e shard specs without separator (#10640)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip uses pull request CI to test changes before merge.
> - The e2e PR lane runs Playwright specs in a shard matrix.
> - Each shard builds a list of spec files for its matrix entry.
> - The workflow passed that list after a literal `--` separator.
> - Playwright did not receive the list as file filters.
> - This pull request removes the separator and adds a guard test.
> - The benefit is that each e2e shard runs only its assigned specs.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #10629.

**What happened?**

The e2e shard step used `pnpm run test:e2e -- $specs`. The shard spec
list was not applied as Playwright file filters.

**Expected behavior**

Each e2e shard should pass only its selected specs to Playwright.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Inspect `.github/workflows/pr.yml` at the merge commit for #10629.
2. Find the `e2e_shards` command that invokes `pnpm run test:e2e`.
3. See the literal `--` before `$specs`.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`86767951`

**Deployment mode**

GitHub Actions PR CI.

## What Changed

- Removed the literal `--` from the e2e shard `pnpm run test:e2e $specs`
invocation.
- Added a regression test that checks the workflow passes `$specs`
without that separator.

## Verification

- `node --test scripts/__tests__/e2e-shard.test.mjs`

## Risks

Low risk. This changes one CI command and one workflow guard test. The
main risk is shell argument handling in the workflow, and the guard now
covers the expected command shape.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5 through Codex. The run used shell and GitHub CLI tool
access. The runtime did not expose a context window size.

Devin FoleyandCody 8676795188 ci: split e2e PR lane into three shards (#10629)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The pull request workflow protects changes with a Playwright e2e
lane.
> - That lane already uses a weighted file partition so slow specs do
not cluster by test count.
> - Recent green PR runs showed the two e2e shard jobs were slower than
the next slow required lane.
> - The largest spec is indivisible, so a third shard lets that spec run
alone and lets the rest split by duration.
> - This pull request changes only the PR e2e shard matrix and the guard
test.
> - The benefit is a shorter expected PR critical path while the
required `e2e` aggregate check name stays stable.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #9923

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The `pull_request` workflow Playwright e2e lane.

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: GitHub Actions CI and test scripts.

**Current behavior**

The PR workflow runs the weighted Playwright e2e partition across two
jobs. Recent green runs showed those jobs as the slowest required
checks.

**Proposed behavior**

The PR workflow runs the same e2e spec set across three weighted jobs.
The aggregate required check stays named `e2e`.

**Reason and benefit**

The third shard lets the slow smoke-lab spec run alone while the rest of
the catalog stays balanced. This should shorten the PR critical path.
The win is bounded by fixed per-job setup time.

**Breaking changes**

None. The required aggregate check contract is preserved.

## What Changed

- Change the PR e2e shard matrix from two entries to three entries.
- Update the shard guard test to expect three shards.
- Floor the balance bound at the largest single spec weight.
- Assert that the workflow does not define more shard indexes than
`SHARD_COUNT`.

## Verification

- `node --test ./scripts/__tests__/e2e-shard.test.mjs` passes with 6
tests.
- The recorded-weight partition is complete and non-overlapping: 168.0s,
116.5s, and 114.4s.
- I checked `ROADMAP.md` and found no overlapping roadmap-level core
feature.
- I searched public GitHub PRs and issues for related e2e shard work. I
found related PR #9923 and no open duplicate for this branch or change.

## Risks

- This adds one extra GitHub Actions runner to the PR e2e lane.
- The wall-clock win is bounded by fixed per-job setup.
- Behavior risk is low because the aggregate required check remains
named `e2e`.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, tool-enabled coding agent in this repository. The
runtime did not expose the context-window size.

Devin Foley 6401f4f78c fix(sandbox): bundle git copy-back against the merge-base so diverged/reset workspaces still import (#10601)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - An agent that runs in a sandbox has its workspace copied back to the
host when the run ends, so its work persists — the copy-back ships a git
bundle of the sandbox's commits
> - The bundle is created as a thin delta, `git bundle create HEAD --not
<baseSha>`, which records `baseSha` (the host workspace HEAD captured at
export) as a prerequisite the host must already hold
> - That assumption breaks when the sandbox HEAD has diverged from
`baseSha`, or when a shared host workspace no longer holds `baseSha` at
import time — then `git fetch` on the host hard-fails and the entire run
is lost even though the agent finished its work
> - This pull request bundles against the merge-base of `baseSha` and
the sandbox HEAD (with a full-bundle fallback), which the host can
satisfy in those cases
> - The benefit is that copy-back no longer discards a completed run's
work over a base the host can't reconcile

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A sandbox agent run completed its work, then failed during workspace
finalize:

```
git -C <host workspace> fetch --force <git-delta.bundle> refs/…/export:refs/…/imported
error: Could not read <baseSha>
fatal: revision walk setup failed
error: git-delta.bundle did not send all necessary objects
```

The run is reported as `adapter_failed` even though the agent produced
output. The copy-back bundle names the host workspace's recorded HEAD
(`baseSha`) as a prerequisite, but the host cannot satisfy it.

**Steps to reproduce**

Two independent triggers, both reproduced in tests:
1. The sandbox's HEAD has diverged from `baseSha` — e.g. the sandbox
carries a local-only branch that forked from an older commit than the
host's current HEAD.
2. The shared host workspace no longer holds `baseSha` at import time
(it was reset / re-realized between export and import).

In either case `git fetch` of the thin bundle fails with a missing
prerequisite.

**Expected behavior**

Copy-back imports the sandbox's work as long as the host holds any
common ancestor, instead of hard-failing and discarding the run.

**Paperclip version**

Current `master`.

**Deployment mode**

Any deployment running agents in sandbox environments with workspace
sync (notably shared-workspace clones and custom images that carry a
local-ahead branch).

## What Changed

- `buildRemoteGitDeltaBundleScript` now computes `bundle_base = git
merge-base <baseSha> HEAD` and bundles `HEAD --not <bundle_base>`. The
merge-base is an ancestor of `baseSha`, so any host that holds `baseSha`
(or an ancestor of it — e.g. after a reset) can satisfy the
prerequisite, and the bundle stays a delta rather than a full-history
transfer.
- When `baseSha` is absent from the sandbox, or no merge-base exists, it
falls back to a full, self-contained bundle (no prerequisites) so the
import can always complete.
- The existing empty-bundle no-op (no new commits) and the ordinary
fast-forward path are unchanged; the `cat-file` base check no longer
aborts the script under `set -e`.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run packages/adapter-utils/src/git-workspace-sync.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-managed-runtime.test.ts` — new cases:
a diverged sandbox HEAD imports when the host holds only the merge-base
(not `baseSha`), and the full-bundle fallback imports into a host that
shares no history; existing thin-delta and empty-bundle cases still
pass.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils exec tsc --noEmit`.
- Standalone shell repro confirmed the old thin bundle fails with
"Repository lacks these prerequisite commits" in both trigger cases, and
the merge-base bundle imports successfully.

## Risks

- Low. For the common case (sandbox HEAD descends from `baseSha`) the
merge-base is `baseSha`, so the bundle is byte-for-byte the same delta
as before. The change only alters behavior when the old code would have
hard-failed.
- This makes the copy-back import succeed on a diverged base; the
subsequent reconciliation of divergent histories
(`integrateImportedGitHead`) is unchanged and still owns how the
imported head is merged into the host branch. Where a workspace's
history has genuinely diverged (e.g. a stale custom image carrying a
local-only branch), a clean re-clone/re-capture is still the right
operational fix — this change prevents work loss, it does not reconcile
intentional divergence.

## Model Used

Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`, Anthropic) via Claude Code — extended
thinking, agentic tool use (file edits, shell repro, vitest/tsc runs).
No other models involved.

Devin Foley ee9d907d01 fix(codex): do not inject a duplicate --skip-git-repo-check for sandbox runs (#10595)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A Codex agent runs `codex exec`, and the adapter assembles its
argument vector from the agent's config plus execution-context options
> - For sandbox execution the adapter injects `--skip-git-repo-check`,
because a headless remote workspace has no git trust prompt to answer
> - The adapter also appends the operator's `extraArgs` verbatim, so an
agent that already lists `--skip-git-repo-check` in its config gets the
flag twice on a sandbox run
> - `codex exec` rejects a repeated `--skip-git-repo-check` and exits
with code 2, which the adapter surfaces as `adapter_failed` before any
work runs
> - This pull request skips the sandbox injection when the operator's
args already carry the flag
> - The benefit is that a common, harmless-looking config no longer
crashes every sandbox run

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A `codex_local` agent configured with `extraArgs:
["--skip-git-repo-check"]` fails on every sandbox run:

```
error: the argument '--skip-git-repo-check' cannot be used multiple times

Usage: codex exec [OPTIONS] [PROMPT]
```

The adapter reports `stopReason: "adapter_failed"` (Codex exited with
code 2). The flag appears twice in the argv: once injected by the
adapter for sandbox execution, once from the operator's `extraArgs`.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Configure a `codex_local` agent with `extraArgs:
["--skip-git-repo-check"]` (or the legacy `args` field).
2. Point it at a sandbox environment.
3. Start a run — `codex exec` aborts immediately on the duplicate flag.

**Expected behavior**

The run launches with a single `--skip-git-repo-check`. An operator
listing the flag the adapter already injects should be a no-op, not a
hard failure.

**Paperclip version**

Current `master`.

**Deployment mode**

Any deployment running Codex agents in sandbox environments.

## What Changed

- `buildCodexExecArgs` no longer pushes the sandbox
`--skip-git-repo-check` when the resolved args (`extraArgs`, or the
legacy `args` fallback) already contain it. The operator's copy stands;
the argv carries the flag exactly once. Non-sandbox runs and configs
without the flag are unchanged.

## Verification

- `cd packages/adapters/codex-local && pnpm vitest run
src/server/codex-args.test.ts` — new cases: `extraArgs` already carrying
the flag (single occurrence), the legacy `args` field carrying it
(single occurrence), and the operator's flag preserved when the sandbox
injection is not requested. Existing "adds --skip-git-repo-check when
requested" case unchanged.
- `cd packages/adapters/codex-local && pnpm vitest run` — full package
suite (218 tests).
- `pnpm run typecheck` in the package.

## Risks

- Low. The change only suppresses a duplicate of a single, idempotent
flag; it never removes an operator-supplied argument and never adds one
that was not already going to be present.

## Model Used

thinking, agentic tool use (file edits, vitest/tsc runs). No other
models involved.

Devin Foley c0b875c46c fix(codex): let sandbox runs use the sandbox image's own Codex login (#10582)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Codex agents can run inside sandbox environments, and operators can
bake a Codex login into the sandbox image during interactive image setup
> - Two credential gates (the control plane's pre-dispatch
configuration-incomplete gate and the adapter's execute-time fail-fast)
required host-side Codex credentials — a usable `auth.json` in the
managed home or a configured `OPENAI_API_KEY` — regardless of where the
run executes
> - On managed cloud hosts a local Codex login never exists, so every
sandbox run of a Codex agent failed immediately with "configuration
incomplete: no Codex credentials available for managed home …", even
though the adapter's inbound auth merge already supports the image-login
case end to end
> - This pull request makes the execute-time gate probe the sandbox for
its own `~/.codex/auth.json` before failing, and exempts
sandbox-destined runs from the pre-dispatch host check
> - The benefit is that a sandbox image signed in to Codex is a
first-class credential source, matching what the auth-merge,
precedence-warning, and copy-back machinery were already built for

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Running a `codex_local` agent in a sandbox environment whose image
carries a Codex login failed instantly with `configuration incomplete:
no Codex credentials available for managed home "…/codex-home". Sign in
to Codex on the host with a ChatGPT subscription, or bind a per-agent
OPENAI_API_KEY secret for this agent.` The host has no Codex login and
never will on a managed cloud deployment; the sandbox's own login was
never consulted.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Configure a sandbox environment and capture a custom image after
signing in to Codex inside the interactive image setup.
2. Create a `codex_local` agent that uses that environment, on a host
with no Codex login and no `OPENAI_API_KEY` bound.
3. Start a run: it fails pre-dispatch with the configuration-incomplete
blocker above.

**Expected behavior**

The run launches and Codex authenticates with the sandbox image's own
login, the same way the adapter's host↔sandbox auth merge already keeps
the sandbox credential when the host ships none. A run should only fail
fast when neither the host, a bound `OPENAI_API_KEY`, nor the sandbox
has credentials.

**Paperclip version**

Current `master` (cloud image deployments).

**Deployment mode**

Managed cloud stacks (any deployment where the server host has no local
Codex login).

## What Changed

- Extracted the adapter's execute-time gate into
`assertCodexCredentialsLaunchable`: when host readiness fails and the
target is a sandbox, it probes `~/.codex/auth.json` in the sandbox (same
command the auth-precedence warning uses) and proceeds with a log line
naming the credential source; when the sandbox has no login either, the
error now names all three remediation options (sandbox image sign-in,
per-agent `OPENAI_API_KEY`, host sign-in). Non-sandbox targets keep
today's strict behavior byte-for-byte.
- The control plane's pre-dispatch gate in
`resolveExecutionRunAdapterConfig` now takes the selected environment's
driver and skips the host-credential check for sandbox-destined runs —
only the adapter can probe the sandbox once it is up, so the
execute-time gate is the authority there. Non-sandbox runs keep the
early, well-attributed configuration-incomplete blocker.
- The codex Test flow needed no change: it already seeds host
credentials only when they exist and otherwise leaves the sandbox's
`CODEX_HOME` alone; this aligns the run path with it.

## Verification

- `cd packages/adapters/codex-local && pnpm vitest run` — 210 tests,
including new gate cases: sandbox login present (proceeds + logs
source), sandbox and host both credential-less (fails with the extended
message), non-sandbox target (strict host requirement kept, no sandbox
probe), per-agent API key (no probe at all).
- `cd server && pnpm vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-project-env.test.ts
src/__tests__/codex-local-adapter-environment.test.ts` — includes the
new sandbox-exemption case next to the existing blocker tests.
- `pnpm run typecheck` in `server` and `packages/adapters/codex-local`.

## Risks

- Sandbox-destined misconfigurations (no credentials anywhere) now
surface at adapter execute time instead of pre-dispatch, so they read as
an adapter failure with a precise message rather than a
configuration-incomplete blocker. The trade-off is deliberate: the
sandbox must be up to know whether credentials exist, and the failure
message names the exact remediations.
- The sandbox probe adds one short (5s-capped) shell command to sandbox
runs whose host has no credentials; runs with host credentials or a
bound key are untouched.
- Self-hosted behavior is unchanged for local and SSH targets.

Devin Foley 90ead239a8 feat(ui/server): name cross-company environment secret refs instead of calling them missing (#10577)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Environment configs (sandbox providers, SSH) can bind stored company
secrets through `format: "secret-ref"` fields, picked in the environment
editor's secret picker
> - Environments are instance-scoped and shared by every company on an
instance, but the picker lists only the current company's secrets, so a
ref pointing at another company's secret renders as "Missing secret (…)"
in destructive styling
> - That state is indistinguishable from a genuinely deleted secret, so
operators "fix" a healthy binding by creating a duplicate secret in
their own company — the exact sequence that used to corrupt bindings
before #10576
> - This pull request adds an instance-gated metadata endpoint for an
environment's secret refs and teaches the picker to name a cross-company
secret and its owner honestly
> - The benefit is that operators can tell a healthy cross-company
binding from a broken one, and stop creating duplicate secrets

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**

In the environment editor, a secret-ref field that points at a secret
owned by a different company shows "Missing secret (22095402…)" in red,
with "The previously selected secret is no longer available. Pick
another or remove the binding." The binding is actually healthy — the
current company's picker just cannot list the other company's secrets.
Operators react by creating a duplicate secret and re-pointing the
field.

**Describe the solution you'd like**

The editor should know the referenced secret's name, status, and owning
company (metadata only, never the value) and present a cross-company ref
neutrally, a deleted secret as deleted, and only an unknown id as
missing.

Related: #10576 (fixes the binding corruption this UI state used to
trigger).

## What Changed

- New `GET /environments/:id/secret-refs` returns `{ refs: [{
configPath, secretId, name, status, companyId, companyName }] }` for the
environment's config-derived secret refs. Values are never returned. The
route sits behind `assertCanAccessInstanceEnvironments`, the same gate
as environment editing.
- New `secretService.describeSecretRefs` loads that metadata across
companies; unknown ids are omitted.
- `SecretBindingPicker` reads an optional `SecretRefHintsContext` (keyed
by secret id). With a hint, a ref the company list cannot show renders
as `NAME — Owning Company` with neutral styling and the note "Owned by
the … company. The binding keeps working; selecting a secret from this
list re-points it here." A hint with `status: "deleted"` reports the
secret as deleted. Without hints, behavior is byte-identical to before —
agent editors and other picker users are unaffected.
- `CompanyEnvironments` fetches descriptors for the environment being
edited and provides them through the context.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm vitest run src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/secrets-service.test.ts` — new endpoint happy path, agent
403 (descriptors never computed), and embedded-Postgres coverage proving
cross-company names resolve and unknown ids drop out.
- `cd ui && pnpm vitest run src/components/SecretBindingPicker.test.tsx
src/components/JsonSchemaForm.test.tsx
src/pages/CompanyEnvironments.test.tsx` — hinted cross-company
rendering, hinted deleted secret, and unchanged no-hint fallback.
- `pnpm run typecheck` in `server` and `ui`.
- Manual: edit an environment whose secret-ref field references another
company's secret; the field names the secret and its owning company
instead of "Missing secret".

## Risks

- The endpoint exposes secret names and company names across companies
to instance-level environment editors. Those actors already manage
instance-shared environments (and instance admins are implicit members
of every company), so this reveals no secret material and no new reach;
the service method documents that callers must sit behind an
instance-level gate.
- UI change is additive and context-gated; pickers without a provider
render exactly as before.

Devin Foley f51cba33fa fix(server): keep environment secret bindings consistent when re-pointing config secrets (#10576)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents can run inside environments (SSH boxes, sandbox providers); a
sandbox environment's config can reference stored company secrets (for
example a provider API key) through `format: "secret-ref"` fields
> - Environments are instance-scoped and shared by every company on an
instance, but `company_secret_bindings` rows are company-scoped, and the
environment routes synced config-derived bindings under one guessed
"context company" resolved from the environment's existing bindings
> - When a save re-pointed a secret-ref field at a secret owned by a
different company, the binding sync threw after the config row had
already been persisted: the config referenced the new secret, the
binding still pointed at the old one, every later lease acquisition
failed with `Secret is not bound to environment:<id> at apiKey`, and the
stale cross-company binding made every later save fail with a
company-context conflict — with no route-level way to recover
> - This pull request makes config-derived bindings follow the company
that owns each referenced secret, and makes the environment write and
its binding syncs atomic
> - The benefit is that environment saves can no longer strand an
environment in a half-updated state that breaks all of its runs

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #10577 (companion UX change: the editor state that nudges operators
into this sequence).

**What happened?**

Saving an environment whose secret-ref config field points at a secret
owned by a different company than the environment's existing binding
partially applied: the config row updated, the binding sync failed
server-side, and the environment was left referencing a secret it has no
binding for. Every run that leased the environment then failed with
`lease_acquire_failed: ... Secret is not bound to environment:<id> at
apiKey`, and every later save of the environment returned 409
`Environment secret bindings already use a different company context.` —
with no route-level way to recover.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. On an instance with two companies, create a sandbox environment from
company A with a picker-bound API-key secret owned by A (the binding
lands in A).
2. From company B, create a new secret and re-point the environment's
API-key field at it, then save.
3. The save persists the config but the binding sync throws, so no
binding for B's secret exists.
4. Run any agent that uses the environment, or try to save the
environment again.

**Expected behavior**

The save either fully applies (config and bindings consistent) or fully
fails. Re-pointing a config secret ref to a secret owned by another
company moves the binding with the secret.

**Paperclip version**

Reproduced on current `master` (also present on recent release images).

**Deployment mode**

Multi-company server deployment (any mode with more than one company on
the instance).

## What Changed

- New `secretService.replaceSecretRefsForInstanceTarget`: writes each
config-derived binding under the company that owns the referenced
secret, replaces all non-`env.*` bindings of the target across every
company, and validates every ref (secret exists, not deleted,
config-path and projection-class rules) before any row is written.
`env.*` env-var bindings stay company-scoped and untouched.
- The environment create and update routes now run the environment write
and its binding syncs inside one `db.transaction`, threading the
transaction through new optional executor seams on
`environmentService.create/update` and the existing `SecretBindingDb`
seam pattern, so an invalid ref rolls the whole save back instead of
leaving a half-updated environment.
- `resolveEnvironmentSecretContextCompanyId` no longer lets existing
bindings veto the caller's context (the 409s above); it now only picks
where new raw-pasted secrets are created and how env-var bindings and
probes resolve: explicit route/query company first, then the single
company the bindings live in, then the actor's company.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm vitest run src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/environment-instance-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/secrets-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/environment-custom-image-routes.test.ts` (165 tests,
includes new coverage below)
- New embedded-Postgres tests prove: a re-point moves the binding to the
new secret's company and deletes the stale row; refs across several
companies each bind under their own secret's company; an unknown secret
ref rejects without touching existing bindings; `env.*` rows survive
config-ref replacement.
- New route tests prove: a cross-company re-point that previously 409'd
now saves, with the update and binding replacement on the same
transaction executor; a failing ref surfaces as 422.
- `cd server && pnpm run typecheck`

## Risks

- Behavioral shift: environment saves no longer 409 on a company-context
mismatch between the caller and existing bindings; bindings follow the
referenced secret's company instead. Environment routes are
instance-admin gated, and instance admins already had access to every
company's secrets by passing the company explicitly, so this removes an
ordering trap rather than widening access.
- Runtime lease resolution is unchanged: a run still resolves
environment secrets under the run's own company, so an environment
referencing company B's secret still only leases for company B runs
(fail-closed as before).
- The delete route's per-company binding cleanup is unchanged.

Devin Foley ea0dd3917e build: make image layer caching actually hit (#10571)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Published container images are the deployable unit for self-hosted
and managed instances, so merge-to-image latency bounds every deploy
iteration
> - The docker workflow configures BuildKit caching, but builds still
ran ~12+ minutes essentially cold
> - Two causes: the most expensive layer (four CLI toolchains + apt) is
ordered after the always-changing app copy so it can never cache, and
the type=gha cache's 10GB repo cap means the two multi-arch mode=max
jobs evict each other
> - This pull request reorders the tool layer above the app copy (with a
weekly epoch so @latest tools keep advancing) and switches both jobs to
registry-backed cache in ghcr
> - The benefit is that warm builds shrink to roughly the app build +
push, targeting the sub-5-minute range together with the amd64-only
cloud variant

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

request template:

**Subsystem affected**

CI / release publishing (docker workflow, Dockerfile)

**Problem or motivation**

Despite `cache-from/cache-to` being configured, image builds run
effectively cold: (1) the production stage installs four CLI toolchains
+ apt packages *after* `COPY --from=build /app /app`, and since the app
copy changes every commit, that most-expensive layer rebuilds every
build, per arch; (2) the `type=gha` BuildKit cache is capped at 10GB per
repository, and two multi-arch `mode=max` jobs overflow and evict each
other's entries.

**Proposed solution**

Order the tool/OS layer before the app copy (it references nothing from
`/app`), refresh it weekly via a `CLI_TOOLS_CACHE_EPOCH` build arg so
the `@latest` tools don't freeze in the cache, and move both jobs to
registry-backed BuildKit cache (`:buildcache` / `:buildcache-cloud` refs
in ghcr, no size cap, separate refs so the parallel jobs don't clobber
each other).

**Alternatives considered**

Pinning CLI tool versions instead of the weekly epoch — more
deterministic, but adds a version-bump chore; the weekly epoch preserves
current freshness semantics with bounded staleness. Keeping type=gha
with `mode=min` — smaller cache but loses intermediate-stage reuse,
which is where most of the win is.

**Roadmap alignment**

Not on ROADMAP.md; CI/publishing speed improvement only.

## What Changed

- `Dockerfile`: the production stage's tool/OS `RUN` (npm --global CLIs,
apt, `/paperclip` setup) moves above `COPY --from=build /app /app`; new
`CLI_TOOLS_CACHE_EPOCH` arg consumed by that layer. The `cloud` stage is
unaffected — it only layers plugin dists on top of the finished
production stage.
- `.github/workflows/docker.yml`: both jobs stamp the ISO week into
`CLI_TOOLS_CACHE_EPOCH`, and both switch `cache-from/cache-to` from
`type=gha` to `type=registry` with per-job refs.
- Includes the one-line amd64-only cloud-variant commit from #10570 so
the two PRs can't conflict; if #10570 merges first, this PR rebases down
to a single commit automatically.

## Verification

- Image content is unchanged by layer reordering: the moved `RUN`
references nothing from `/app`, and Docker layer ordering only affects
caching, not the final filesystem (tool installs and app copy touch
disjoint paths).
- The cache ref is written only by this workflow — `docker.yml` runs on
master/tag pushes, never on PRs — so the workflow's existing "no shared
caches into build inputs" supply-chain stance is unchanged (BuildKit
layer cache was already accepted via type=gha; the registry backend has
the same writer trust).
- Runtime proof lands with the first two master builds after merge: the
first warms the cache, the second should show the tool layer and
deps/build stages as CACHED in the build log, with wall clock dropping
accordingly. I'll be watching those as part of managed-deploy work.

## Risks

- Low. Worst case the registry cache misses (cold-build behavior, same
as today). The weekly epoch means CLI tools update at most a week late
inside images; a release built mid-week ships the tools from that week's
first build. Cache refs add two small artifacts to ghcr.

Devin Foley ce40343b9c build: publish the cloud image variant for amd64 only (#10570)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Published container images are how both self-hosted users and
managed-deployment hosts run it
> - The repository publishes two variants: the self-hosted image and a
cloud variant for managed deployments
> - The cloud variant was built for amd64+arm64, but its only consumers
are managed-deployment hosts, which run amd64
> - The QEMU-emulated arm64 half dominates the build's wall clock,
delaying every merge-to-deployable-image cycle
> - This pull request drops arm64 from the cloud variant only, keeping
the self-hosted image multi-arch
> - The benefit is roughly halving the time from merge to a deployable
cloud image, with no change for any actual consumer

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing public issue — inline description following the feature
request template:

**Subsystem affected**

CI / release publishing (docker workflow)

**Problem or motivation**

The cloud image variant builds for `linux/amd64,linux/arm64`, but the
arm64 half runs under QEMU emulation and dominates the job's wall clock
— while no consumer of the cloud variant runs arm64 (managed-deployment
hosts are amd64). Every deploy iteration pays ~double the necessary
build time.

**Proposed solution**

Build the cloud variant amd64-only. The self-hosted image keeps
`amd64+arm64` so ARM users (Apple Silicon, ARM servers) are unaffected.

**Alternatives considered**

Keeping multi-arch but building arm64 on native arm64 runners with a
manifest merge — faster than QEMU and worth doing for the self-hosted
image if its build time becomes a pain point, but unnecessary complexity
for a variant with no arm64 consumers.

**Roadmap alignment**

Not on ROADMAP.md; CI/publishing speed improvement only.

## What Changed

- `.github/workflows/docker.yml`: the `build-and-push-cloud` job's
`platforms` is now `linux/amd64` (with a comment explaining why). The
self-hosted `build-and-push` job is untouched.

## Verification

- Build-config-only change; the workflow runs on merge to master. The
published `-cloud` manifest will be amd64-only, which its consumers
already pull.
- No test changes: nothing at runtime differs on any platform that
actually runs the image.

## Risks

- Low. If an arm64 consumer of the cloud variant ever appears (e.g.
local `docker run` on Apple Silicon for debugging), it would fall back
to emulation on the consumer's machine or need this reverted — a
one-line change. The self-hosted image's platform matrix is unchanged.

Devin Foley 521271ebb7 build: bake the build commit into published images (#10566)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Instances commonly run from published container images, and
operators need to observe which build a container actually serves
> - `/api/health` now reports the running build commit, and server-info
already falls back to `PAPERCLIP_BUILD_COMMIT` when git is unavailable
> - But published images carry no `.git` and never received
`PAPERCLIP_BUILD_COMMIT`, so containers report `commit: null` — verified
live against a current image
> - That leaves the new deployment-verification field inert exactly
where it matters most: containerized deploys
> - This pull request bakes the exact build commit into both image
variants at build time, mirroring how `PAPERCLIP_BUILD_VERSION` is
already stamped
> - The benefit is that containers report their true commit on
`/api/health`, so deploy tooling can verify a rollout actually shipped

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Companion to #10563 (which exposed the `commit` field on `/api/health`).
Inline description following the bug report template:

**What happened?**

A container from a published image responds to `GET /api/health` with
`"commit": null`. The image has no `.git` directory and the
`PAPERCLIP_BUILD_COMMIT` fallback that `server-info` supports is never
provided at build time, so git metadata resolves as unavailable.

**Expected behavior**

A container reports the commit it was built from, the same way it
already reports its build version via the baked
`PAPERCLIP_BUILD_VERSION`.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run any published image (e.g.
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip:sha-c4f6264-cloud`) and `curl
/api/health` — `commit` is `null` even though the build commit is known
at image-build time.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`sha-c4f6264-cloud` (first image containing #10563).

## What Changed

- `Dockerfile`: new `PAPERCLIP_BUILD_COMMIT` build arg, exported as an
ENV in the production stage (the `cloud` stage inherits it), directly
parallel to `PAPERCLIP_BUILD_VERSION`. Empty for local `docker build`,
which keeps the normal fallbacks.
- `.github/workflows/docker.yml`: both build jobs pass
`PAPERCLIP_BUILD_COMMIT=${{ github.sha }}`.

## Verification

- Reviewed the plumbing end-to-end: `build-commit.ts` reads
`PAPERCLIP_BUILD_COMMIT` (validated as a full SHA), `server-info.ts`
`readGitInfo` falls back to it when the git CLI fails, producing
`available: true, fullSha` — which `/api/health` surfaces as `commit`.
- Verified live that a current published image reports `commit: null`;
this change repairs that on the next build. Post-merge, the first master
image should report its commit — I'll be verifying that as part of
managed-deploy validation.
- No test changes: the fallback path is already covered by existing
server-info tests; this PR only supplies the env at image build.

## Risks

- Low. Two build-time stamps; no runtime code changes. A wrong SHA would
only mislabel the build (same failure mode `PAPERCLIP_BUILD_VERSION`
already carries), and `${{ github.sha }}` is the exact commit the
workflow builds.

running container's `/api/health`.

Devin Foley 51bb41c7e3 Expose the running build commit on the unauthenticated health response (#10563)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Instances run self-hosted or under hosting/deploy tooling, and
operators need to observe what build a server is actually running
> - `/api/health` carries the git SHA only inside `serverInfo`, which is
gated to board/agent actors — anonymous callers get a redacted body with
no version signal at all
> - Deploy tooling that manages instances from outside (fleet rollouts,
hosting providers, upgrade scripts) therefore cannot ground-truth that a
deploy actually shipped without holding credentials
> - A build commit is a plain git SHA of this public repository — it is
not a secret, and gating it buys no security while blocking legitimate
verification
> - This pull request surfaces the running build commit as a top-level
`commit` field on every `/api/health` response, including the redacted
anonymous one
> - The benefit is credential-free deploy verification: any operator or
tool can confirm which commit an instance serves, while the fuller
`serverInfo` block stays access-controlled as before

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing public issue — inline description following the feature
request template:

**Subsystem affected**

Server (API, runs, routes)

**Problem or motivation**

An anonymous `GET /api/health` returns a redacted body with no version
information; the running git SHA exists only in
`serverInfo.git.fullSha`, which requires a board/agent actor. External
deploy tooling (fleet rollouts, hosting providers, upgrade scripts)
therefore cannot verify that an instance is actually serving the build
it was just upgraded to — a rollout that silently keeps running the old
image is indistinguishable from a successful one at the health endpoint.

**Proposed solution**

Surface the running build commit as a top-level nullable `commit` field
on every `/api/health` response shape, including the redacted anonymous
one, while keeping the fuller `serverInfo` block access-controlled as
before. A build commit is a plain git SHA of this public repository —
exposing it costs nothing and enables credential-free deploy
verification, like the `version` endpoints on most server software.

**Alternatives considered**

Authenticating deploy tooling as a board actor to read `serverInfo` —
rejected: it forces credential plumbing into infrastructure that only
needs a public SHA, and adds a whole class of auth-misconfiguration
failure to deploy verification.

**Roadmap alignment**

Not on ROADMAP.md; a small operational observability improvement, no
overlap with planned core work.

## What Changed

- `server/src/routes/health.ts`: derive `commit` from the server info
snapshot (`serverInfo.git.fullSha` when git metadata is available, else
`null`) and include it as a top-level field on every `/api/health`
response shape — the redacted anonymous body, the full-details body, the
no-db body, and the 503 database-unreachable body.
- `serverInfo` itself remains gated to full-details responses exactly as
before; only the bare commit is newly public.
- `server/src/__tests__/health.test.ts`: updated exact-shape assertions
to include `commit`, and added an assertion that `commit` is `null` (not
omitted) when git metadata is unavailable. The redacted-response tests
now pin that anonymous callers receive the commit.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run src/__tests__/health.test.ts` in `server/` — 13 tests
pass, including the redacted-anonymous shapes (which now pin the
`commit` field) and the git-unavailable `null` case.
- `tsc -p server/tsconfig.json --noEmit` — clean.
- Manual: `curl -s https://<instance>/api/health` as an anonymous caller
returns `"commit": "<full sha>"` alongside the existing redacted fields.

## Risks

- **Version disclosure:** anonymous callers can now fingerprint the
exact running commit. This is a deliberate trade-off: the builds are of
a public repository (the SHA reveals no private code), the endpoint
already responds to anonymous callers, and the operational value —
verifying deploys actually shipped — outweighs the marginal
fingerprinting surface. Operators who consider this sensitive are
typically fronting `/api` with their own access controls already.
- Otherwise low risk: no behavioral change to any gated field, no schema
or API-surface removal; `commit: null` keeps the field shape stable when
git metadata is absent (e.g. non-git installs).

## Model Used

Claude Opus 4.8 (`claude-opus-4-8`, extended thinking, via Claude Code
with tool use and code execution) authored the change and tests;
finalized and PR'd under Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`).

Devin Foley dd1a7f5290 Ensure app-home ownership before the privilege drop, not only on remap (#10530)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The Docker image persists all instance state (project checkouts,
worktrees, run logs, uploads) under `PAPERCLIP_HOME`, and deployments
mount a volume there for durability
> - The entrypoint starts as root and drops privileges to the `node`
user, but it fixes `PAPERCLIP_HOME` ownership only when it remaps the
user's UID/GID
> - A freshly mounted volume arrives root-owned and shadows the image's
build-time `chown`, so a default-UID boot drops privileges onto an
unwritable home and the server crashes on its first `mkdir`
> - This pull request makes the entrypoint probe the home's ownership
and chown whenever it does not match the runtime user, before the
privilege drop
> - The benefit is that the image works out of the box on any
platform-managed volume, with the common already-correct boot staying
chown-free

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists — describing the bug inline (per the bug report
template).

**What happened?**
Running the image with a freshly created volume mounted at `/paperclip`
(a Docker named volume, a Kubernetes PV, or any platform-managed volume)
and the default `USER_UID`/`USER_GID` crashes on boot: `Error: EACCES:
permission denied, mkdir '/paperclip/instances/default/logs'`.

**Expected behavior**
The container boots and initializes its instance tree on the mounted
volume, exactly as it does when `/paperclip` is the image's own
(build-time chowned) directory.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. `docker volume create paperclip-data`
2. `docker run -v paperclip-data:/paperclip
ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip:<any current tag>`
3. Observe the EACCES crash on the first `mkdir` under `/paperclip`.

**Root cause**
`scripts/docker-entrypoint.sh` chowns `/paperclip` only inside its
UID/GID remap branch (`changed=1`). A fresh volume mount is root-owned
and shadows the image's build-time `chown node:node /paperclip`; with
the default 1000:1000 no remap happens, so no chown happens, and `gosu
node` drops onto an unwritable home.

**Paperclip version or commit:** reproduces on `master` and any
published image.
**Deployment mode:** any; observed on managed-cloud volume mounts and
reproducible with plain Docker named volumes.
**Installation method:** Docker image (`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip`).

**Related PRs (dedup search):** no open or merged PR touches the
entrypoint ownership logic; the entrypoint's privilege-handling tests
were added previously and this extends them. No duplicate found.

## What Changed

- `scripts/docker-entrypoint.sh`: the remap-conditional `chown` is
replaced by an ownership probe — after any UID/GID remap, the entrypoint
stats `PAPERCLIP_HOME` (default `/paperclip`) and runs `chown -R
node:node` only when the owner does not match the runtime user, before
`exec gosu node`. Covers fresh root-owned mounts and trees written under
a previous UID mapping; the already-correct boot performs no chown. The
unprivileged (non-root start) branch is unchanged.
- `server/src/__tests__/docker-entrypoint.test.ts`: `stat` stub added to
the harness; new cases for the fresh root-owned mount with default
UID/GID and for `PAPERCLIP_HOME`-relative probing; the remap case now
models the post-remap ownership mismatch.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/docker-entrypoint.test.ts` — 7
passed (5 existing behaviors unchanged, 2 new).
- Live on a managed deployment: a container that crash-looped with the
EACCES above boots cleanly once the home is chowned before the drop (the
same effect this entrypoint change produces; forced there by a UID remap
as an interim workaround).

## Risks

- Low. Behavior changes only for boots where `PAPERCLIP_HOME` exists
with mismatched ownership — exactly the boots that crash today. `chown
-R` on a large previously-mismatched tree adds one-time boot latency;
correctly-owned homes skip it entirely. Kubernetes restricted /
OpenShift non-root starts keep the existing exec-directly path
untouched.

Devin Foley 075951f6bd Fix import completion UX: inbox flood, false-failure message, stale company list (#10538)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Company Import/Export (#10507, hardened in #10523 and #10531) now
imports a large company end to end via an async job
> - A real 1,418-issue import succeeded, but three rough edges showed up
in that success
> - Imported issues flooded the inbox, a completed import surfaced a
false "failed" message after its in-memory result expired, and the new
company didn't appear in the switcher until a manual refresh
> - This pull request keeps imported issues out of the inbox, treats an
expired-but-completed import as success, and refreshes the company list
on completion
> - The benefit is that a successful import looks and feels successful,
and doesn't bury the user's inbox in historical tasks

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Refs #10507 / #10523 / #10531 (Import/Export and its hardening). No
open issue; three post-import bugs described above.

## What Changed

- **Imported issues no longer flood the inbox.** The inbox "mine" tab is
a query: an issue is "touched" if the user authored a comment on it, and
import re-attributes bundled user comments to the importing user — so
every imported issue appeared. Import now seeds a per-user
`issue_inbox_archives` row for each imported issue (via a batched
`issues.archiveImportedInbox`), the exact table the inbox visibility
query excludes. Gated on an actor user id, so agent/system imports and
normal issue creation are untouched; genuine new activity still
resurfaces the issue.
- **A completed import no longer shows a false failure.** The in-memory
job's terminal retention was 5 minutes, so a poll after that 404'd and
the UI showed "failed." Retention is extended to 60 minutes — the real
mitigation for a user who steps away during a long import.
`watchImportJob` additionally treats a *server-confirmed* success whose
full result is no longer retained (a `succeeded` status carrying only
the compact summary — a cloud tenant job, or a board job whose full
in-memory result aged out) as a soft success ("import completed — open
the company"), navigating by the summary's company id. A 404 while the
job is still being watched is *not* treated as success: a running job is
never dropped by the retention sweep, so its disappearance means a
restart mid-import that may not have finished, and it surfaces the
honest "may have restarted while the import ran" error. A first-poll 404
(the id never existed) is likewise a real error.
- **The imported company appears without a refresh.** `onSuccess` now
invalidates the companies/switcher query unconditionally (covering both
the full-result and expired-but-completed paths) and navigates by the
job's company id.

## Verification

- shared/server/ui typechecks clean; 15 UI tests in the touched spec
green, plus the embedded-Postgres import batching and portability-routes
suites.
- New tests: embedded-Postgres test that imported touched issues are
archived for the actor and excluded from the inbox query while a
normally-created issue still appears; job resolvable at the old window+1
and only 404s past 60 min; UI soft success on a server-confirmed
`succeeded` job without a retained full result (no error, list
invalidated, navigates by company id), a running-then-gone job → honest
error (restart mid-import), and a first-poll 404 → error.

## Risks

- Low and import-scoped: the inbox archive only affects imported issues
for the importing user; normal issue creation and non-user
(agent/system) imports are unchanged. Retention extension is a constant;
the async job store remains in-memory by design. A restart mid-import
still 404s and is surfaced honestly as a possible failure (never masked
as success); only a server-confirmed success whose full result has
expired is reported as a soft success.

## Model Used

- Implementation: Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`, Anthropic). Review
hardening (the confirmed-success narrowing): Claude Opus 4.8
(`claude-opus-4-8`, Anthropic). Both via the Claude Code CLI with
extended thinking + tool use; root-caused against the live import.

Devin Foley 5ec7ce76e5 Upload company import packages as compressed zip uploads (fix large-company imports through Cloud) (#10531)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Company Import (#10507, hardened in #10523) lets a user upload a
company package on the Import page
> - The page expanded the user's `.zip` into a files map and POSTed it
as ONE inline JSON body — ~40MB for a real company because attachment
blobs get base64-inflated
> - On Paperclip Cloud that body travels browser → harness proxy →
tenant, where it truncated in transit → body-parser 400 → the browser
saw "Failed to fetch", and nothing imported
> - Two compounding causes: the giant inline body itself, and the board
async opt-in riding an `x-paperclip-cloud-*` header that the Cloud
harness strips as anti-spoofing (so async never engaged and the import
held one fragile synchronous connection)
> - This pull request uploads the raw compressed `.zip` as a multipart
request (about a third the size, already compressed) parsed server-side
into the same bundle the importer consumes, and moves the async opt-in
to a proxy-safe `?async=1`
> - The benefit is that a large-company import actually completes
through Cloud: a small compressed upload, a real async job that survives
dropped connections

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Refs #10507 / #10523 (Import/Export and its hardening). No open issue;
problem described above (large-company browser import through a proxy:
inline JSON body truncates → 400 → "Failed to fetch"; async opt-in
header stripped by the front door → async never engages).

## What Changed

- **Multipart zip transport.** The Import page uploads the raw `File` as
`multipart/form-data` (field `package`, import options in a JSON `meta`
field); the server unzips it into `{ rootPath, files }` and runs the
exact existing preview/import logic. The `application/json` inline path
is byte-identical for CLI/programmatic callers. Bare `application/zip`
(meta via `?meta=`) is also accepted for programmatic use.
- **Shared node zip reader.** `packages/shared/src/portability-zip.ts`
(node-only subpath, not re-exported to the browser bundle — same pattern
as `portability-hash.ts`); the CLI's `zip.ts` becomes a thin re-export.
Identical codec (STORE + DEFLATE via `inflateRawSync`, rejects data
descriptors/zip64).
- **Proxy-safe async signal.** `wantsAsyncImport` = `?async=1` (board
browsers, survives the harness) OR the existing
`x-paperclip-cloud-async-import` header (cloud tenants, set
server-side). The UI async client now uses `?async=1`. Backward
compatible.
- **Size + preflight.** New `PORTABLE_ZIP_UPLOAD_LIMIT_BYTES = 128MB`;
the inline 56MB preflight no longer gates the zip path (it shows the
compressed size instead). Async submit/poll/resume, the duplicate-guard
fingerprint (now over the resolved bundle), pause-on-import,
progress/error panels, and activation all apply to the multipart path.
- OpenAPI documents json + multipart + zip bodies and the `async` query
param.

## Verification

- Full typecheck chain (shared, server, ui, cli) clean.
- 152 tests across 8 files: new `portability-zip.test.ts`
(STORE/DEFLATE/base64-blob byte-exact round-trip, truncation throws,
data-descriptor rejection); `company-portability-routes.test.ts` +7
(multipart import+preview equals the inline bundle; async multipart
202→poll→success; board async via `?async=1` with no cloud header;
cloud-tenant async via header; sync fallback with neither; truncated-zip
400, nothing imported); `CompanyImport.test.tsx` asserts the local zip
sends the raw File and the inline preflight no longer blocks;
`openapi-routes.test.ts` green.
- NOT yet measured: the end-to-end browser upload through the live Cloud
harness — verified on staging after deploy before closing out.

## Risks

- Import semantics unchanged — only transport changed; the JSON inline
path is byte-identical, the cloud-tenant header async path untouched.
Multipart parsing is server-side (memory-bound: a ~13MB zip → ~30MB
files map, fine on the server).
- The bare `application/zip` path is programmatic-only and covered by
content-type dispatch but not a dedicated route test (the multipart path
is).

## Model Used

extended thinking + tool use; root-caused against live logs/DB and the
harness proxy source.

afterward
> - Root cause of the slowness: importBundle inserted every issue,
comment, and document as a separate round-trip to a network Postgres —
an N+1-over-network pattern
> - This pull request hardens the whole import path: durable
progress/error UI, an async server-side job so imports survive dropped
connections (with a duplicate-submit guard), a fail-closed guard against

> - The benefit is that migrating a real, large company actually
completes, is legible while it runs, and can't half-import twice

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Refs #10507 (the Import/Export feature this hardens). Supersedes
#10513 (the progress/error-UI piece, folded in here). No open issue;
problem described above (large-company import: slow, connection-fragile,
silently duplicable, opaque UI).

## What Changed

- **Batched inserts (perf):** importBundle pre-generates entity ids in
JS and inserts in chunked multi-row statements, so children no longer
wait on parents' generated ids. A 1,418-issue import drops from ~15,600
insert statements to **82** (190×); benchmark below. Import semantics —
collision handling, pause-on-import,
label/blocker/monitor/attachment/embedded-asset handling, blob sha
verification — are unchanged (full portability suite green).
- **Async import jobs for board sessions:** the existing cloud-tenant
async job path opens to board sessions with per-actor job keys; the
import page submits, polls, and resumes watching after a reload or
dropped connection instead of holding one fragile request. A
non-terminal job blocks a duplicate submit (409 returns the running
job), preventing the double-import.
- **Fail-closed completeness guard:** an optional `expectedFileCount` on
inline imports; the server rejects (422 `import_payload_incomplete`) a
body carrying fewer files than declared, so a re-framed/short payload
fails loudly instead of half-importing.
- **Durable progress/error UI (was #10513):** persistent progress panels
with size-aware copy, persistent error panels with retry guidance, and
inline explanation when the preview button is disabled;
request-lifecycle guards so stale previews/imports can't publish or
detach.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r` typechecks (shared, server, ui) clean.
- `company-portability.test.ts` (76) +
`company-portability-routes.test.ts` (30) green — the import correctness
net — plus new `CompanyImport.test.tsx` async/resume/409 coverage and a
new batching regression test (a 50-issue import issues <50 issue-insert
statements; rows land unchanged).
- **Batching benchmark (embedded Postgres):** at 1,418 issues × 7
comments × 1 doc — 82 insert statements vs ~15,598 one-per-row (190×),
~1s wall-clock; a row-verifying run at that scale imports all 1,418
issues / 9,926 comments / 1,418 documents with unique identifiers and no
warnings (no rows dropped by chunking). Over a network DB the round-trip
reduction is the hours→minutes lever.
- What is NOT directly measured here: wall-clock against a real network
Postgres (that happens on a staging deploy); the local timing is
network-free.

## Risks

- Batching is the load-bearing change: it rewrites the import write
path. Mitigated by the unchanged 106-test correctness suite, a new
scale/row-integrity test, and per-writer transactions (a failure rolls
back its table group; not a single outer transaction across writers —
noted, correctness preserved).
- Async jobs are in-memory (lost on server restart → pollers 404 and can
resubmit); matches the pre-existing cloud-tenant job semantics.
- `expectedFileCount` is optional (older callers unaffected); over-count
is allowed, only under-count fails closed.

## Model Used

- Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`, Anthropic), Claude Code CLI,
extended thinking + tool use; implementation across Fable 5 subagents
with live diagnosis against a running instance.

Devin Foley 1c52f02d34 Let cloud tenant sessions reach companies they hold memberships in (#10524)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - On Paperclip Cloud, each stack authenticates its users to the tenant
app through trusted headers (`resolveCloudTenantActor`), which seed a
primary company for the stack
> - That actor was pinned to exactly one company — the seeded primary —
regardless of any other companies the user actually holds a membership
in
> - Companies created later (via the import flow, or company creation)
write real membership rows for the user, but the pinned actor ignored
them, so those companies showed up in listings yet returned "User does
not have access to this company" when opened
> - This pull request unions the pinned primary with the user's own
active membership rows, exactly as a locally authenticated session
already does
> - The benefit is that a Cloud user can reach every company they belong
to — most visibly, a company they just imported

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Refs #10507 (Import/Export — imported companies were unreachable on
Cloud stacks). No open issue; bug described above (companies visible in
listing but unreachable; expected: reachable when the user holds an
active membership).

## What Changed

- Extracted the session path's own active-membership query into
`loadActiveUserCompanyMemberships(db, userId)` (single-sourced; the
session path now calls it too).
- `resolveCloudTenantActor` unions its result with the pinned primary:
`companyIds = [primary, ...others]`, memberships likewise, primary
first. Strictly per-user; a membership-read failure degrades to
primary-only (mirrors the existing fail-closed owner-elevation pattern).
No change to owner instance-admin elevation, grant seeding, the stale
instance-admin purge, or trusted-header validation.
- Grants are seeded at membership creation across all flows (company
create, invite/join, import), not per request — so no extra seeding was
added here.

## Verification

- `@paperclipai/server` typecheck clean.
- `cloud-tenant-actor.test.ts` (+ union / other-user-excluded /
inactive-excluded / no-rows-identical cases),
`auth-session-route.test.ts` (route-level: trusted headers reach a
unioned company through `assertCompanyAccess`), plus agent-auth,
authz-company-access, cross-company-authz, portability-routes — 83 tests
green.

## Risks

- Low and tightly scoped: only widens a Cloud actor's reachable
companies to those it already holds active memberships in; users without
extra memberships, other users' rows, and owner elevation are all
unaffected. Read failure fails closed to primary-only.

Devin Foley 187a90b7bc Add opt-in in-flight run-log mirroring with graceful-shutdown flush (#10512)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The run-log store records each agent run's output and can mirror
completed logs to S3-compatible object storage
> - The mirror uploads only on finalize, so a server restart mid-run
loses the whole in-flight log
> - Deployments and crashes are routine on ephemeral hosts, and lost run
output makes failed runs impossible to debug
> - This pull request adds an opt-in throttled mirror for still-running
logs plus a graceful-shutdown flush
> - The benefit is that a restart mid-run keeps the log tail up to the
last mirror interval, and an orderly restart keeps everything

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists — describing the feature inline (per the feature
request template).

**Subsystem affected**
server/ — REST API & orchestration services

**Problem or motivation**
`RUN_LOG_S3_BUCKET` gives finished run logs durability, but the mirror
uploads only on finalize. A run that is still writing when the server
restarts leaves nothing in object storage. On hosts with ephemeral disks
the local file is gone too, so the run's output is lost end to end and
failed runs cannot be debugged.

**Proposed solution**
Mirror the in-flight log to the same object key on a throttled cadence
(`RUN_LOG_S3_INFLIGHT_MIRROR_SECONDS`), and flush dirty tails during
graceful shutdown. Keep it opt-in so existing deployments see zero new
upload traffic unless they ask for it.

**Alternatives considered**
Per-append uploads (rejected: one PUT per output chunk is hostile to S3
endpoints and run latency). Chunked part objects with read-time
stitching (rejected: complicates the read path, and S3 multipart minimum
part sizes do not fit small tails). Persistent volumes (rejected
upstream already: the data dir is deliberately an emptyDir in hardened
cloud_tenant deployments).

**Roadmap alignment**
Not on ROADMAP.md; extends the existing run-log durability mirror
without changing any default behavior.

**Additional context**
Ranged reads already serve partial objects like a live tail, so the read
path needs no change; finalize overwrites the mirror with the complete
file.

**Related PRs (dedup search):** the finalize-only S3 mirror landed
previously and this extends it; no duplicate or competing PR found for
in-flight run-log mirroring.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/run-log-store.ts`: new opt-in `inflightMirrorMs`
on the S3 options (`RUN_LOG_S3_INFLIGHT_MIRROR_SECONDS` env). When set,
appends schedule at most one upload of the current file per interval, to
the same key finalize uses. Ranged reads already serve that key, so a
partial object behaves like a live tail and needs no read-path change.
Finalize retires the in-flight bookkeeping and waits out an upload
already on the wire, so a stale partial can never overwrite a finalized
log. Upload failures warn, re-mark the tail dirty, and retry at most
once per interval.
- `server/src/services/run-log-store.ts`: new `flushInflightMirrors()`
on the store and a module-level `flushInFlightRunLogMirrors()` for the
shutdown path. Both are no-ops when the mirror is off.
- `server/src/index.ts`: graceful shutdown flushes dirty in-flight tails
after the heartbeat run drain, so runs the drain did not finalize
(timeouts, the hot-restart skip path) still persist their output.
- `server/src/services/run-log-store.test.ts`: five new tests —
off-by-default (no uploads before finalize), tail preserved after a wipe
without finalize, throttle coalescing with a single flush upload,
finalize superseding the in-flight mirror and retiring its timer, and
upload failures never breaking appends with recovery on the next flush.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run server/src/services/run-log-store.test.ts` — 13
passed (8 existing + 5 new).
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-run-log.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-active-run-output-watchdog.test.ts` — 21
passed (consumers of the store, unchanged behavior).
- `pnpm -C server run typecheck` — clean.
- Self-hosted behavior is unchanged unless
`RUN_LOG_S3_INFLIGHT_MIRROR_SECONDS` is set: with the variable unset
there are zero new uploads and the finalize-only mirroring is
byte-identical (asserted by the off-by-default test).

## Risks

- Low. The feature is opt-in; unset env preserves today's behavior
exactly. When enabled, worst case is one extra PUT per interval per
active run, and every upload is best-effort — a failing endpoint warns
and never breaks appends, finalization, or shutdown. The finalize path
awaits any in-flight upload before writing the complete file, closing
the only overwrite race the design introduces. Timers are `unref`ed so
the mirror never keeps the process alive.

Devin Foley 916c13501f Replace host-to-host Cloud Sync with full-fidelity company Import/Export (#10507)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A company accumulates real state — issues, labels, blockers,
documents, work products, monitors, attachments, agents, routines — and
people need to move that state between instances: self-hosted to cloud,
cloud back to self-hosted, or plain backups
> - The experimental, flag-gated Cloud Sync transport (#6548) tried to
solve this host-to-host: the source pushed into a receiver over HTTPS
with a cross-instance consent/token handshake, which required the
destination to be publicly reachable and broke for common self-hosted
topologies (plain-HTTP LAN/VPN origins); the receiver half never landed
upstream at all
> - Meanwhile the portability bundle and the existing export/import
pages already move companies offline with none of those networking
constraints — but silently dropped labels, blockers, issue documents,
work products, monitors, and every attachment
> - This pull request removes the host-to-host transport and makes
Import/Export the single data-movement path: the pages become
first-class company-settings destinations, exports declare exactly what
they do not carry, and bundle schemaVersion 6 now carries all of the
above, with attachments as content-addressed sha256 blobs verified
before a single row is written
> - The benefit is a migration and backup flow that works between any
two instances with no reachability requirements, no cross-instance auth,
and no silent data loss

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Refs #6548 — the original Cloud Sync sender this PR supersedes and
removes.
- Related, not duplicates: #1697 (goals in the portability manifest —
orthogonal field addition), #954 (an earlier import/export +
skill-visibility proposal predating the current portability bundle).
- No open issue describes this directly, so in brief (feature-request
shape): **Problem** — moving a company between instances silently lost
labels (imports with label references actually hard-failed), blocker
relations, issue documents, work products, monitor state, and all
attachments, and the alternative Cloud Sync transport required the
destination to be publicly reachable over HTTPS plus a consent
handshake, which failed for typical self-hosted setups. **Desired
behavior** — one Import/Export flow in company settings that produces a
portable bundle carrying all of that data, tells the operator up front
what it cannot carry, imports with automations paused, and offers real
one-click activation afterwards.

## What Changed

- New export fidelity report (`GET
/api/companies/:companyId/export/fidelity`) + an "Export fidelity" panel
on the Export page listing anything a bundle will not include (now only:
approvals, cost history, activity history)
- Imports accept `pauseAutomations`; imported agents and routines land
paused, the import result reports created routines, and the Import page
ends in an activation panel that actually resumes selected
agents/activates routines
- Export and Import pages promoted into the company-settings nav; the
Cloud Upstream wizard, ux-lab page, and API client removed; the old
settings route redirects to Export
- Host-to-host transport removed: upstream-sync/receiver-client routes
and services, CLI `cloud connect`/`cloud push` + keypair store, the
shared upstream transfer contract, and the `enableCloudSync` flag;
migration `0196` drops the two experimental `cloud_upstream_*` sender
tables
- Bundle schemaVersion 6: labels (definitions + per-task names, remapped
by name on import), blocker relations (`blockedBy` slugs,
cycle-tolerant), issue documents (`tasks/<slug>/documents/<key>.md`),
work products (system refs nulled), monitors (notes/scheduledBy
restored, imported un-armed)
- Attachments travel as content-addressed `blobs/<sha256>` entries
(deduped; comment-scoped attachments re-link via comment index); every
blob is hash-verified **before any write**, so a corrupted bundle cannot
leave a partially imported company; both zip codecs now round-trip
extensionless/binary entries byte-exactly; the Import page preflights
the inline body limit and offers continue-without-attachments
- v5 (and older) bundles still import, with an informational warning;
bundles newer than v6 are rejected cleanly
- Docs: board-operator import/export guide, CLI README, README/ROADMAP
updated

## Verification

- `pnpm -r` typechecks (shared, db incl. migration numbering/safety
checks, server, ui, cli) and `pnpm check:token-gates` — clean
- Vitest: full server + shared sweep 4,888 passed / 1 skipped, with the
only 3 failures being pre-existing on `master` (2×
heartbeat-workspace-branch-containment, 1× workspace-runtime auto-port;
reproduced identically with this change stashed); ui + cli suites green;
the embedded-Postgres export-fidelity suite applies the full migration
chain including the new `0196` against a fresh database
- Live end-to-end on a scratch instance: seeded a company with labels, a
blocker pair, an issue document, a work product, a monitor, an agent, a
routine, and two binary attachments (one comment-scoped) → export →
import into a fresh company → labels remapped to new ids, blocker edge
and document restored, monitor un-armed with notes intact, attachments
byte-identical (sha256-compared through the API), agents/routines paused
→ activation panel resumed them; a v5-shaped bundle imported with only
the info warning; flipping one byte in a blob made the import 422 with
**zero** rows created
- Reviewer repro: create a company with a labeled issue + attachment →
Settings → Export → download → Settings → Import on another
company/instance → watch the preview, apply with "start paused", then
activate

## Risks

- Migration `0196` drops
`cloud_upstream_connections`/`cloud_upstream_runs` — experimental tables
behind a default-off flag; their connection/run history is intentionally
discarded
- Breaking removals are all of experimental, flag-gated surface:
`/api/upstream-sync/*` + `/api/cloud-upstreams/*` routes, `paperclipai
cloud connect|push`, and the `enableCloudSync` flag (stale keys in
stored instance settings parse harmlessly)
- Import remains non-atomic on mid-apply errors generally (pre-existing
behavior); the new blob verification specifically moved ahead of all
writes so tampered bundles cannot create partial state
- GitHub-sourced imports do not fetch `blobs/*` and skip attachments
with a warning

## Model Used

- Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`, Anthropic), via Claude Code CLI with
extended thinking, tool use, and subagent orchestration; implementation
and review split across Fable 5 subagents, with live end-to-end
verification against a running instance

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 5c5366d0c1 fix(server): honor explicit plugin RPC timeouts (#10460)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Plugin workers connect Paperclip to external runtimes and sandbox
providers.
> - Some adapter heartbeats run a full sandbox session inside one
`environmentExecute` RPC.
> - The worker manager limited every RPC timeout to 15 minutes, even
when the caller gave a longer timeout.
> - This pull request keeps the normal default timeout behavior but
honors explicit caller timeouts.
> - The benefit is that long sandboxed agent sessions can continue past
15 minutes while other safety guards still bound hung work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this bug.

### Bug Report

Pre-submission checklist:
- Searched existing open and closed issues and did not find a duplicate.
- Confirmed the bug is reproducible on `master` from the current source
tree.
- Confirmed the error starts in Paperclip timeout handling, not in an
adapter provider or local configuration.

What happened?
- A sandbox-backed adapter heartbeat can run a full agent session inside
one `environmentExecute` plugin RPC.
- The plugin worker manager capped every RPC timeout at 15 minutes.
- The cap also applied when the caller passed a longer explicit timeout
for an execute-style call.
- A long sandbox command could fail before the adapter budget expired.

Expected behavior:
- Ordinary plugin RPC calls should keep the normal 30-second default
timeout.
- The default timeout path should still have a 15-minute maximum.
- A caller-supplied positive finite timeout should be honored, including
values above 15 minutes.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Use a plugin environment driver that calls `environmentExecute` with
an explicit timeout above 15 minutes.
2. Run a command that stays active longer than 15 minutes and remains
inside the adapter budget.
3. Observe that the worker manager times out the RPC at 15 minutes
before this fix.
4. Run the same path after this fix and observe that the explicit
timeout is used.

Paperclip version or commit:
- Reproduced from the current `master` line before this change.

Deployment mode:
- Local dev or self-hosted server with sandbox-backed execution.

Installation method:
- Built from source.

Agent adapter(s) involved:
- Codex.
- Custom or external plugin adapter.
- Core plugin worker timeout handling.

Database mode:
- Not database-related.

Access context:
- Agent execution context.

Node.js version:
- Not version-specific.

Operating system:
- Not OS-specific.

Relevant logs or output:
```shell
RPC call "environmentExecute" timed out after 900000ms
```

Relevant config:
- Not config-related.

Additional context:
- Execute-style sandbox calls already have adapter inactivity monitors,
platform silent-run checks, and provider command timeouts. This PR
removes the unintended worker-manager clamp only for explicit positive
finite caller timeouts.

Privacy checklist:
- Reviewed all pasted output for PII, user paths, API keys, tokens,
company names, and internal instance links.

Duplicate search:
- Searched open PRs and open issues in `paperclipai/paperclip` for
`environmentExecute timeout`, `MAX_RPC_TIMEOUT_MS`, and
`plugin-worker-manager timeout`.
- Searched the same terms in `HenkDz/paperclip`.
- Found no matching open PRs or issues.
- Compared this patch-id against my open PRs in `paperclipai/paperclip`;
no match was found.

## What Changed

- Added `resolveRpcCallTimeoutMs()` to keep explicit positive finite
timeouts intact.
- Kept the 15-minute maximum only for the default timeout path.
- Updated `callInternal()` to use the new resolver.
- Added unit tests for explicit long timeouts, default timeout clamping,
fractional values, and invalid explicit values.
- Clarified why notification invocation scopes still use the 15-minute
TTL.

## Verification

- `corepack pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `corepack pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk ensure-build-deps`
- `corepack pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/plugin-worker-manager.test.ts`
- `corepack pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsc --noEmit`
- `git diff --check 9574cad3e8 HEAD`
- GitHub PR checks on `bf7bfd0d`: all passing; Storybook visual
regression skipped by workflow.
- Greptile on `bf7bfd0d`: 5/5, no blocking failure remains; prior P2
thread resolved.

## Risks

Low risk. The change affects RPC timeout resolution in the plugin worker
manager. Ordinary plugin calls still use the 30-second default and the
default path is still capped at 15 minutes. Callers that pass explicit
long timeouts now own that budget. Adapter inactivity monitors and
platform silent-run safety checks still bound hung runs.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent, with shell and GitHub CLI tool
use.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this bug. Inline description per the
bug report template:

**What happened?**

A Grok Build (`grok_local`) agent was assigned a sandbox environment (a
Daytona provider). The UI allowed the assignment. Every run and
primary-model test then failed with the warning: `Adapter "grok_local"
is not allowed in "<environment>" environments.`

**Expected behavior**

An adapter that the environment selector offers for a sandbox
environment must also pass the runtime gate. The Grok Build run must
start in the sandbox.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a sandbox environment (for example, with a Daytona provider
plugin).
2. Create an agent that uses the `grok_local` adapter.
3. Set the agent's environment to the sandbox environment. The UI
accepts this.
4. Run the agent, or run the primary-model test. The run fails with the
adapter-not-allowed warning.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on `master` at `0edb742f8d`.

**Deployment mode**

Local instance with a remote sandbox provider plugin. The same gate also
applies to SSH environments.

## What Changed

- `resolveEnvironmentExecutionTarget` in
`server/src/services/environment-execution-target.ts` now gates the
sandbox path with the shared
`adapterSupportsRemoteManagedEnvironments()` helper. Before, it used a
hardcoded six-adapter list that did not include `grok_local`.
- The SSH path in the same file now uses the same shared helper.
- New regression tests in
`server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target.test.ts`: sandbox
target resolution for every remote-managed adapter (including
`grok_local`), SSH target resolution for `grok_local`, and the null path
for an adapter without remote-managed support.

## Verification

- Run `node_modules/.bin/vitest run
server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target.test.ts`. All 10 tests
pass, including the 3 new ones.
- Confirm `grok_local` is in the `REMOTE_MANAGED_ADAPTERS` set in
`packages/shared/src/environment-support.ts`. The resolver now reads the
same set.
- On a live local instance with this fix, a `grok_local` agent assigned
to a Daytona sandbox environment no longer produces the
adapter-not-allowed warning.

## Risks

Low risk. The change routes two hardcoded checks through existing shared
capability metadata. Behavior changes only where the lists had drifted:
`grok_local`, and any future adapter added to the shared set, can now
resolve sandbox and SSH execution targets. Adapters outside the shared
set still return `null`.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 78f8c6c3d4 Recover managed bundled plugin workers on demand (#10429)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Managed deployments can auto-provision bundled sandbox-provider
plugins so cloud or remote execution environments appear in the board UI
> - In a multi-service deployment, several server processes can share
one database and boot concurrently
> - A sibling process can create a bundled plugin row while the web
process sees it before it reaches `ready`
> - The web process correctly avoids clobbering the existing row, but
its startup `loadAll()` can miss the plugin and never start that worker
locally
> - The environments capabilities route then filters out the sandbox
provider because the plugin is ready in the database but not running in
the web process
> - This pull request adds a narrow managed-bundle recovery path that
lazily starts the missing worker when the capabilities route sees a
ready managed bundled plugin
> - The benefit is that the sandbox provider becomes visible after the
install finishes, without requiring a web-process restart

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- No public GitHub issue found for this exact deployment race.
- Related broad plugin runtime context: Refs #432.

Bug description:

- What happened: in a managed multi-service deployment with shared
database state and bundled plugin auto-install enabled, the API-serving
process can skip a plugin row while it is still `installed`, run startup
plugin loading before that row becomes `ready`, and then permanently
omit the sandbox provider from environment capabilities.
- Expected behavior: once the managed bundled plugin row reaches
`ready`, the API-serving process should be able to start the plugin
worker and include its sandbox provider without a restart.
- Steps to reproduce: boot a web process and a sibling worker process
concurrently; have the sibling create the bundled plugin row and
transition it to `ready` after the web process has already skipped
auto-install and run `loadAll()`.
- Deployment mode: managed multi-service deployment with shared database
state and `plugins.autoInstall` configured.

## What Changed

- Added a managed bundled plugin worker recovery helper that
single-flights lazy `loadSingle()` starts and only allows configured
managed bundled plugin keys.
- Passed the managed recovery hook into the environments capabilities
route.
- Updated `listReadyPluginEnvironmentDrivers()` to attempt bounded
recovery for ready managed bundled plugins whose worker is missing in
the current process, and only for plugins that actually declare a
`sandbox_provider` environment driver.
- Made request-time recovery use `loadSingle(id, { markErrorOnFailure:
false })` so a local activation failure in one process never transitions
the shared plugin row to `error` (a sibling process may be running the
plugin successfully).
- When error writes are suppressed and activation fails after the worker
was spawned, the loader now tears down the partially-registered local
runtime (scheduler registration, event subscriptions, agent tools,
worker process) instead of leaving a half-activated worker lingering;
the teardown steps are factored out of `unloadSingle()` into a shared
helper.
- A failed recovery attempt now discards the crashed/stopped handle it
left registered in the worker manager (a worker that dies during
initialize is killed without a scheduled restart), so later capability
requests can retry recovery instead of being blocked by the
handle-presence gate until a process restart. Handles in
starting/running/backoff states are left to the worker manager's own
lifecycle; recovery only ever starts when no handle existed, so no
pre-existing worker can be affected.
- Added a regression test suite covering the installed-to-ready race,
allowlist behavior, the driver-kind gate, existing worker handles,
concurrent single-flight recovery, bounded slow recovery attempts,
suppressed shared error-state writes, partial-runtime teardown on late
activation failure, and retry after a dead handle is discarded.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run
src/__tests__/plugin-environment-driver-ready-recovery.test.ts` (in
`server/`) passed: 10 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` passed.

## Risks

- Low risk for self-hosted single-process deployments because lazy
recovery is only wired when managed plugin auto-install config is
present; with no managed config the capabilities route takes the exact
pre-change code path.
- The capabilities route can wait briefly while attempting recovery; the
attempt is bounded and defaults to 2 seconds.
- Failed recovery keeps the prior behavior of omitting the provider
until a later successful worker start, and now also cleans up any
partially-started local worker so retries begin from a clean slate.

## Model Used

- Initial implementation: OpenAI GPT-5 via Codex local coding agent,
with repository tool use and command execution.
- Review-feedback follow-ups (driver-kind gate, partial-runtime
teardown, expanded regression tests): Claude Fable 5 (claude-fable-5)
via Claude Code, with repository tool use and command execution.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 4c8d92f086 fix(ui): leave agent detail after termination (#10451)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The agent detail page lets operators inspect one agent and run
lifecycle actions from that context
> - Terminated agents are removed from the normal active-agent surface,
so the current detail route may no longer be fetchable after termination
> - Before this change, terminating an agent from its detail page
invalidated agent queries while leaving the browser on the now-stale
detail route
> - That refetch could surface an "Agent not found" error even though
the terminate action itself succeeded
> - The shared action button already owns the terminate mutation, so it
can notify detail-page callers when termination succeeds
> - This pull request redirects the detail page back to the agents list
after a successful terminate action
> - The benefit is that operators land on a valid route and the Back
button does not return them to the stale terminated-agent detail route

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No direct public GitHub issue or PR was found for this detail-page
termination flow.

### What happened?

After terminating an agent from its detail page, the UI could remain on
that agent's detail route and show an "Agent not found" error after
query invalidation/refetch.

### Expected behavior

Once termination succeeds, the operator should leave the now-stale
detail page and land on a valid agents view.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Open a non-built-in agent detail page.
2. Use the overflow actions menu to terminate the agent.
3. Observe the post-termination route/error state.

### Paperclip version or commit

Current `master` before this PR.

### Deployment mode

Browser UI behavior, independent of a specific deployment mode.

Duplicate search: searched public GitHub issues and PRs for `agent not
found terminate`, `terminate agent detail`, and `Agent not found`; no
direct duplicate or viable in-flight PR was found.

## What Changed

- Added an optional `onTerminateSuccess` callback to
`AgentActionButtons`, fired only after the shared terminate mutation
succeeds.
- Wired `AgentDetail` to replace-navigate to `/agents/all` after
successful termination.
- Extended `AgentActionButtons` coverage for the terminate success path,
including API args, callback payload, and query invalidations.

## Verification

- `corepack pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/AgentActionButtons.test.tsx`
- `corepack pnpm check:token-gates`
- `git diff --check origin/master..HEAD`
- Local diff scan for obvious tokens, credential filenames, and email
addresses found no matches.

## Risks

Low risk. The new callback is optional, only fires for successful
terminate actions, and preserves existing behavior for other
`AgentActionButtons` callers.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent (`gpt-5`), tool use enabled for
repository inspection, editing, local verification, and GitHub CLI
operations. Context window details were not exposed by the runtime.

Devin Foley dc12197cce fix: prevent duplicate built-in agents and self-heal reconciliation (#10223)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Every company is auto-provisioned a set of built-in agents (e.g. the
Summarizer), and a startup reconciler keeps that set correct across
every company on boot.
> - Provisioning marks these agents with
`metadata.paperclipBuiltInAgent.key`, but nothing in the database
enforced one active agent per `(company, key)` —
`provision()`/`ensure()` did a check-then-insert with no guard.
> - Two concurrent server processes (e.g. a `tsx watch` double-boot)
could both read "no summarizer exists" and both insert, leaving a
company with duplicate built-in agents plus paired orphan pending
`hire_agent` approvals.
> - That data blemish then became a recurring outage: `findSingleAgent`
throws on >1 marked row, and because the throw escaped
`reconcileBuiltInAgentsOnStartup`'s sequential loop, **every company
after the affected one was silently skipped** on each boot — no
auto-provisioning, no default grants — until manual DB surgery.
> - This pull request closes the race at the database level and makes
reconciliation self-healing and fault-isolated.
> - The benefit is that concurrent provisioning can no longer create
duplicates, and even pre-existing duplicates are resolved automatically
instead of bricking startup reconciliation for unrelated companies.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- [x] I searched the GitHub PR list (open and recently closed) for
similar PRs and confirmed this is not a duplicate.

No public GitHub issue exists; describing the bug in-PR (bug-report
shape):

**What happened**

A dev instance booted with two concurrent server processes. Both ran
built-in agent provisioning for the same company at the same time, and
the check-then-insert in `provision()`/`ensure()`
(`server/src/services/built-in-agents.ts`) let both writers see "no
summarizer exists" and each create one — the company ended up with two
identical Summarizer agents (identical `paperclipBuiltInAgent` markers)
plus two paired pending `hire_agent` approvals.

From then on, **every** server boot logged:

```
ERROR: startup reconciliation of built-in agents failed
       Multiple built-in agents found for summarizer (built_in_agent_duplicate_instance)
```

because `findSingleAgent` throws on >1 marked row rather than resolving
the duplicate. Worse, `reconcileBuiltInAgentsOnStartup` loops companies
sequentially and the throw escaped the loop, so every company *after*
the affected one was silently skipped on every boot.

**Expected behavior**

1. Concurrent provisioning must not create duplicate built-in agents
(there was no DB uniqueness constraint on the marker key per company).
2. Reconciliation should be resilient: if duplicates exist anyway,
self-heal (keep the oldest row, terminate the newer dupe, cancel its
orphan pending `hire_agent` approval), and never let one bad company
abort reconciliation for the rest.

**Steps to reproduce**

- Race two `provision(companyId, "summarizer")` calls for a company with
board approval for new agents enabled (or simulate a double-boot); both
insert.
- Restart the server → startup reconciliation error fires, companies
later in the loop are never reconciled.

## What Changed

**Part 1 — stop creating duplicates**

- Migration `0192_built_in_agent_unique_marker` adds a **partial unique
index** on `(company_id, metadata->'paperclipBuiltInAgent'->>'key')`
where the marker exists and `status != 'terminated'`. It first resolves
any pre-existing duplicates (keep oldest by `created_at`, terminate
newer dupes, cancel their orphan pending `hire_agent` approvals, revoke
their API keys) so the index can be created on already-affected
instances.
- `provision()`/`ensure()` now catch the losing race's `23505` unique
violation (walking the driver's wrapped cause chain) and re-resolve to
the winning row instead of surfacing the error.

**Part 2 — resilient reconciliation**

- `findSingleAgent` self-heals: keeps the oldest marked row, terminates
the newer duplicates, and cancels each one's orphan pending `hire_agent`
approval (idempotent) instead of throwing.
- `reconcileBuiltInAgentsOnStartup` isolates per-company failures in
both loops so one bad company can't abort reconciliation for the rest;
it surfaces a `companyFailures` count in the startup log.
- Adds `approvalService.cancel()` for system-initiated cancellation of
an orphan approval.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db run check:migrations` → numbering +
safety checks pass.
- `packages/db` migration test (real embedded Postgres) — seeds
pre-index duplicate state, runs the migration, asserts dupes resolved +
index enforced: **1 passed**.
- `server` `built-in-agents.test.ts` — self-heal, concurrent races
(plain and board-gated), and startup
self-heal-without-aborting-later-companies: **34 passed**.

```
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db exec vitest run src/built-in-agent-unique-marker-migration.test.ts
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run src/__tests__/built-in-agents.test.ts
```

## Risks

- **Migration safety**: the migration mutates data (terminates duplicate
rows, cancels their orphan pending approvals, revokes their API keys)
before creating the index. It keeps the oldest row per `(company, key)`
and only touches non-terminated marked rows; the destructive step is
covered by the migration test and the safety-check baseline. On a clean
instance it is a no-op cleanup followed by `CREATE UNIQUE INDEX IF NOT
EXISTS`.
- Otherwise low risk: the unique index is partial (excludes terminated
rows, so re-provisioning after a termination stays possible), and the
conflict handling degrades gracefully to re-resolving the existing
winner.

Devin Foley 9f5af4ea5d fix(server): accept secret_ref binding objects in sandbox provider environment config (#10355)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents execute in environments; sandbox provider plugins (Daytona,
Modal, e2b, …) declare their config via a JSON schema, with credentials
marked `format: "secret-ref"`
> - The environments UI renders those fields with a secret picker that
submits `{ type: "secret_ref", secretId, version }` binding objects,
while the server-side environment config paths only understood raw
string values and bare secret-id strings
> - The binding object reached the plugin worker's
`environmentValidateConfig` untouched; plugins parse non-string config
values as absent, so saving or testing an environment with a
picker-bound secret always failed validation (e.g. "Daytona sandbox
environments require an API key in config or DAYTONA_API_KEY.", "Modal
sandbox environments require tokenId and tokenSecret.")
> - Worse, an environment first saved with raw pasted values becomes
uneditable: the stored value is a secret reference, the edit form
re-submits it as a binding object, and every subsequent save fails the
same way
> - This pull request canonicalizes binding objects to the bare secret
id before plugin validation, and teaches the persistence/runtime/probe
secret-ref resolvers to accept the object shape defensively
> - The benefit is that picker-bound secrets work for every
schema-driven sandbox provider — create, edit, and Test — with no plugin
changes required

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes #10105

The same failure reproduces with the Daytona provider: Settings →
Instance settings → Environments → New, driver sandbox, provider
daytona, bind Api Key to an existing secret via the picker → Save fails
with "Daytona sandbox environments require an API key in config or
DAYTONA_API_KEY."

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/json-schema-secret-refs.ts`: new
`parseSecretRefBindingObject()` that recognizes the `{ type:
"secret_ref", secretId, version? }` shape the secret picker submits
(version defaults to `"latest"`; malformed objects return null).
- `server/src/services/plugin-environment-driver.ts`:
`validatePluginSandboxProviderConfig()` now canonicalizes binding
objects at the driver schema's `format: "secret-ref"` paths to the bare
secret id (the persisted shape) before invoking the plugin worker's
`environmentValidateConfig`. Pinned numeric versions are rejected with a
clear 422, since sandbox provider references always resolve the latest
version — silently resolving a different version would be worse.
- `server/src/services/environment-config.ts`: the persistence, runtime,
and probe secret-ref resolvers plus `collectEnvironmentSecretRefs()`
accept the binding-object shape defensively, so any previously persisted
object-shaped refs (from providers whose validation tolerated them)
resolve instead of being silently skipped; the missing-companyId runtime
guard also now fails closed for object-shaped refs.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/json-schema-secret-refs.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/plugin-sandbox-provider-config-validation.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-config.test.ts` — 82 tests pass,
including new coverage: binding-object canonicalization before plugin
validation, pinned-version rejection, raw-string pass-through, and a
route-level create with a picker-submitted binding object persisting the
bare secret id without minting a duplicate secret.
- `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/environment-runtime.test.ts` — 24
tests pass against embedded Postgres, including a new test that persists
an object-shaped ref and verifies runtime resolution produces the
plaintext credential for the plugin worker.
- `pnpm typecheck` in `server/` — clean.

## Risks

- Low. The canonical persisted shape (bare secret-id string) is
unchanged, so existing saved environments and lease-resume fingerprints
are unaffected; raw pasted values and bare-id strings take exactly the
same code path as before.
- New behavior only triggers where a save/probe previously failed 422
(binding objects at secret-ref paths) or where an object-shaped ref was
previously skipped silently at runtime (now resolved, or failed closed
without a companyId).
- Pinned binding versions at sandbox-provider paths are now an explicit
422 instead of an accidental validation failure; no UI submits pinned
versions today (`allowVersionSelector={false}`).

Devin FoleyandPaperclip c274f10abc feat(server): computed owner instance-admin elevation for cloud-managed instances, behind platform floors (#10343)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Cloud-managed instances authenticate tenant users through a
trusted-header path (`resolveCloudTenantActor`) that deliberately never
grants `instance_admin`, so every tenant user is company-scoped
> - On a dedicated (single-owner) managed instance that leaves the
paying owner unable to administer their own instance: instance settings,
the environments admin surface, and the custom sandbox image flow are
all instance-admin gated (the environments UI can't even show the
provider/image of the platform sandbox because the restricted read view
blanks `config` entirely)
> - Re-granting the old blanket `instance_user_roles` row would repeat
the mistake the shared-pool hardening fixed: DB rows go stale, resurrect
via restores, and elevate through every auth path
> - This pull request elevates only the stack `owner`, computed per
request at the trusted-header boundary behind a new managed-tier feature
flag, and ships that elevation together with code floors on the
platform-owned surfaces an instance admin must not control on a managed
instance
> - The benefit is that dedicated-stack owners can administer their own
instance while platform credentials, execution policy, backups, and
runtime code-install stay platform-owned, and self-hosted behavior is
unchanged

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this change; the underlying issue is
described here following the feature-request template.

### Problem or motivation

- On cloud-managed instances, tenant users resolved from trusted headers
are always company-scoped. For dedicated instances with a single paying
owner, the owner cannot reach any instance-admin surface of their own
instance (instance settings, environments administration, custom image
setup), and the restricted environment read view hides even structural
fields like the sandbox provider and image.
- The previous hardening intentionally removed blanket elevation (and
purges stale `instance_user_roles` rows on every trusted-header
authentication). That protection must not regress for shared
multi-tenant pools.

### Proposed solution

- Owner-only, computed, flag-gated elevation plus code floors on
platform-owned surfaces, in one PR so the elevation can never ship
without the floors.

### Alternatives considered

- Re-inserting an `instance_user_roles` row for owners (the
pre-hardening model): rejected — DB rows go stale, survive restores, and
elevate through every auth path; #7525 removed exactly this.
- Widening only the environments read view without any elevation:
rejected — it fixes one screen but still leaves a dedicated-instance
owner unable to administer instance settings or custom images.
- Elevating additional stack roles (`member`/`admin`/`support`):
rejected — only the owner has an ownership claim over the whole
instance; other roles stay company-scoped.

### Roadmap alignment

- Extends the shipped "Cloud deployments" roadmap work (multi-tenant
isolation, company-scoped cloud tenants, managed-instance bootstrap)
without overlapping planned core items, and leaves self-hosted behavior
unchanged.

## What Changed

- **New feature key** `enableOwnerInstanceAdmin` (`packages/shared`):
boolean flag in `instanceExperimentalSettingsSchema`, catalog tier
`managed`, `cloudDefault: true`, `selfHostedDefault: false`. Inert on
self-hosted instances — the elevation path only exists behind the cloud
tenant trust token.
- **Computed elevation** (`server/src/middleware/auth.ts`):
`resolveCloudTenantActor` now returns `isInstanceAdmin: true` only when
the trusted-header stack role is `owner` **and** the flag is enabled.
The flag is resolved through the instance-settings service so the
managed-config overlay applies (the control plane can disable elevation
fleet-wide without touching tenant databases; a DB row edit or restore
cannot resurrect it). Resolution fails closed on settings read errors.
The `instance_user_roles` never-insert and the per-request stale-row
purge are byte-identical. `member`/`admin`/`support` stack roles stay
company-scoped.
- **Authorization guard split**
(`server/src/services/authorization.ts`): the blanket-allow now trusts
the actor's *computed* `isInstanceAdmin` flag (only the attested
resolver can set it for `cloud_tenant` actors) while keeping the
`instance_user_roles` DB lookup excluded for `cloud_tenant` — a stale or
hand-inserted role row still elevates nothing.
- **Floor F1 — platform environment credentials**
(`server/src/routes/environments.ts`): on cloud-managed instances,
platform-provisioned environment rows (`managedByPaperclip` marker, plus
the legacy managed-Kubernetes marker) use a single floored view for
every reader on all environment routes (list, get, create, update,
delete responses): `envVars` are never echoed and credential-shaped
`config` keys (reusing the managed-config
`SECRET_LIKE_CONFIG_KEY_PATTERN`) are dropped — for **all** actors
including instance admins — while structural config (provider, image,
template, region, …) and the managed markers stay visible. This also
fixes the environments UI for managed sandboxes, which previously lost
the provider/image entirely in the restricted view. The floor also
covers writes: `PATCH /environments/:id` and `DELETE /environments/:id`
on a platform-provisioned row are rejected (403,
`environment_platform_managed`) for every actor including instance
admins, and the guard binds to the persisted row's markers so a patch
cannot strip the managed marker to lift the floor. The one recovery path
is a metadata-only PATCH that solely clears the marker keys
(null/false), for rows stamped through the old unrestricted API before
the markers became reserved — and it never applies to a row whose slot
markers are live platform state: the single local row
(`environments_local_driver_idx`), which `ensureLocalEnvironment` adopts
and stamps on cloud-managed instances from every caller (company
creation, the heartbeat, run orchestration), and the single marked
sandbox row (`environments_managed_sandbox_idx`) while a managed-sandbox
bootstrap path is configured (managed-config `environments` section or
`PAPERCLIP_EXECUTION_MODE=kubernetes`) and the provisioner therefore
adopts and refreshes it on every boot. Clearing a live slot row's
markers would let the next write reclassify it as tenant-managed and
bypass the floor; conversely, when no sandbox provisioning path is
configured the platform holds no claim on any sandbox row, so a platform
marker there is stale by definition and the recovery patch applies.
Every marker outside a live slot is clearable, so no legacy row is ever
locked permanently. Custom-image setup and probes on the platform
sandbox stay available to instance admins — those are the owner-facing
flows this elevation exists for. The marker keys themselves are
reserved: client create/update payloads that set `managedByPaperclip` or
`managedKubernetesSandbox` are rejected (422,
`environment_platform_marker_reserved`) on cloud-managed instances, so a
tenant row can never be stamped platform-provisioned through the API and
self-locked behind the write floor (the provisioner writes markers at
the service layer, not through these routes). Tenant-created
environments are otherwise unaffected.
- **Floor F2 — executionMode**
(`server/src/routes/instance-settings.ts`): on cloud-managed instances,
`PATCH /instance/settings/general` rejects writes that would change
`executionMode` (403, `execution_mode_platform_managed`). Same-value
echoes pass so settings forms that submit the full general-settings
object keep working. The boot-time execution-policy bootstrap path is
untouched (it calls the service directly).
- **Floor F3 — manual database backups**
(`server/src/routes/instance-database-backups.ts`): floored off on
cloud-managed instances (403, `database_backups_platform_managed`);
backups are platform-owned there, and the result would also echo a
server-side filesystem path.
- **Floor F4 — adapter code install** (`server/src/routes/adapters.ts`):
`POST /adapters/install` and `POST /adapters/:type/reinstall` are
floored off on cloud-managed instances (403,
`adapter_install_platform_managed`). Adapter packages execute in the
server process, so a runtime install would let an instance admin read
the platform trust anchors out of the process environment. This mirrors
the existing bundled-only plugin install floor; adapter code on managed
instances comes bundled with the platform image.

## Instance-admin surface audit

Before widening who can hold `isInstanceAdmin`, every
instance-admin-gated surface in `server/src` was enumerated and reviewed
for whether its response or side effects could echo process environment
values or platform credentials (tenant trust token, JWT signing keys,
database connection strings, provider API keys): 29 distinct gate
definitions covering ~90+ call sites, in four groups — sole
instance-admin gates (12), instance-admin-or-company-permission gates
(10), response-shaping/scope-widening sites (6), and the central
`allow_instance_admin` short-circuit in the authorization service (58
`decide()` call sites).

Findings and dispositions:
- **Environment read/write responses** exposed platform sandbox
`envVars`/credential-shaped config to instance admins → closed by floor
F1.
- **Manual backup trigger** echoed a server filesystem path and triggers
a platform-owned operation → closed by floor F3.
- **Adapter install/reinstall** loads externally fetched code into the
server process (indirect, complete env exposure) → closed by floor F4.
The sibling plugin-install path already had a bundled-only floor on
managed instances and needed no change.
- **Token-minting surfaces** (gateway tokens, custom-image
terminal/connection tokens) mint credentials scoped to the instance's
own resources, not platform trust anchors → acceptable for an
owner-admin of a dedicated instance; unchanged.
- All remaining gated surfaces return ordinary instance-scoped business
data; none echo `process.env` or platform secrets directly. OAuth client
secrets are referenced by env-var *name* only; SSH private keys are
stored as secret refs before persistence and are not echoed.

Operational note for managed platforms: this model assumes the process
environment of a managed instance holds only that instance's own
credentials. Platform operators should keep provider credentials
per-instance (never fleet-shared) since an instance admin ultimately
controls in-process code on their own instance.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run server/src/middleware/cloud-tenant-actor.test.ts` —
resolver matrix: owner × flag on/off, flag via managed overlay
(on-over-DB-off and off-over-DB-on), member/admin/support × flag on,
no-token self-hosted, fail-closed settings read, purge still runs and no
role row is ever inserted (14 tests).
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/authorization-service.test.ts` —
computed flag elevates a `cloud_tenant` actor; a stale
`instance_user_roles` row still never does; `session` actors unchanged
(full suite, embedded Postgres).
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts` —
F1: no secret echo to admins on get/list, structural config visible to
restricted readers, platform-row PATCH/DELETE rejected for admins
(including a marker-stripping patch), marker-clear recovery allowed for
stale legacy rows and for a marked sandbox row when no provisioning path
is configured, but refused on the managed local row and on the sandbox
slot row under a managed-config `environments` entry or the forced
kubernetes execution mode, client marker-stamping creates/patches
rejected, tenant rows still readable and writable, self-hosted
read+write regression (60 tests).
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/environment-service.test.ts` —
`ensureLocalEnvironment` adopts a pre-existing local row on
cloud-managed instances (marker stamped, other metadata preserved,
idempotent — no rewrite on re-ensure) and leaves self-hosted rows
untouched (22 tests, embedded Postgres).
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/instance-database-backups-routes.test.ts` — F2
change-vs-echo matrix incl. self-hosted regression; F3 floor for both
admin shapes (32 tests).
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/adapter-routes-authz.test.ts` —
F4 floor; self-hosted install/reinstall behavior unchanged (existing
cases).
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/first-admin-claim.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/bootstrap-claim-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/managed-config.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/health.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-managed-overlay.test.ts
server/src/services/managed-environments.test.ts
server/src/services/execution-policy-bootstrap.test.ts` — first-admin
bootstrap gate and managed-config behavior unchanged (91 tests).
- `pnpm vitest run packages/shared/src/feature-catalog.test.ts` —
catalog/schema sync tests cover the new key (selfHostedDefault must
equal the schema default).
- `pnpm run typecheck` — all 31 workspace projects clean.

## Risks

- Self-hosted behavior is unchanged: every floor binds to
`isCloudManagedInstance()` (tenant trust token present), the new flag
defaults off with no elevation path, and regression tests pin the
self-hosted branches.
- The elevation is fail-closed and stateless: turning the flag off
(managed overlay or DB) de-elevates on the next request; there is no
role row to clean up and restores cannot resurrect elevation.
- On a cloud-managed instance a pre-existing unmarked local row is
adopted (stamped `managedByPaperclip`) by the next ensure and becomes
platform-owned — the intended managed-product semantic: the platform
owns the single local slot. Self-hosted instances are untouched.
- F1 widens restricted readers' view of platform-provisioned rows from
fully blanked `config`/`metadata` to structural-only `config` plus
markers. Platform-delivered config is guaranteed secret-free by the
managed-config contract (secret-shaped keys fail startup), and the floor
re-drops secret-shaped keys defensively.
- One extra instance-settings read per trusted-header request for
owner-role actors (the resolver already performs several queries per
request).

Devin Foley 273315a4d0 feat(server): provision managed sandbox environments from the managed config (#10324)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Hosted/managed deployments configure instances entirely from the
control plane: `PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG` already delivers feature flags
and `plugins.autoInstall` (bundled sandbox provider plugins), parsed
fail-closed at boot
> - A plugin alone is not usable for execution: runs need an
instance-level `driver: "sandbox"` environment row pointing at the
provider, and today only Kubernetes has a boot path for that
(`PAPERCLIP_EXECUTION_MODE` → `ensureKubernetesEnvironment`); every
other provider requires a manual product-API call the control plane
cannot make on a managed instance
> - Adding one `ensureXxxEnvironment` per provider would multiply
near-identical boot hooks and env-var surfaces
> - This pull request generalizes the existing Kubernetes machinery: the
managed-config document gains an optional `environments` section that
declares a sandbox environment for any bundled provider, ensured
idempotently at boot by a provider-agnostic service function (the
Kubernetes hook becomes a thin wrapper over it)
> - The benefit is that a managed fleet can provision any sandbox
provider (Daytona, Modal, E2B, …) purely from configuration — no
per-provider code, no manual API calls, no secrets in the document —
while self-hosted behavior is untouched

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. Refs #10157 (the cloud image variant that
bundles sandbox provider plugins — this PR is the configuration half
that makes an installed provider usable).

**Problem (feature-request shape):** on a managed instance the control
plane can auto-install a bundled sandbox provider plugin via
`PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG.plugins.autoInstall`, but cannot create the
environment row that makes the provider schedulable. The only boot-time
environment provisioning is Kubernetes-specific
(`PAPERCLIP_EXECUTION_MODE=kubernetes` + `PAPERCLIP_K8S_*`). A generic,
config-driven path is needed so any bundled provider can be provisioned
without per-plugin code or manual API calls.

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/managed-config.ts`: optional `environments`
top-level section — `[{ name, description?, provider, config? }]` —
validated fail-closed: unknown keys, more than one entry (the DB permits
exactly one Paperclip-managed sandbox row,
`environments_managed_sandbox_idx`), a `provider` not present in
`plugins.autoInstall`, `config.provider`, or secret-looking config keys
at any depth (`api_key`/`token`/`secret`/`password`/`credential`) all
refuse startup. Absent section ⇒ `environments: []`, so pre-section
documents keep booting newer builds.
- `server/src/services/environments.ts`: new provider-agnostic
`ensureManagedSandboxEnvironment({ name, description?, provider,
config?, extraMetadata? })` — idempotently owns the single managed
sandbox row: refreshes name/description/config each call, adopts the
slot across provider switches (dropping the stale
`managedKubernetesSandbox` marker), adopts a same-name unmanaged sandbox
row (stamping it managed) instead of colliding on
`environments_name_idx` every boot, and falls back to keeping the
current name if the desired name belongs to a different row.
`ensureKubernetesEnvironment` is now a thin wrapper that pins `provider:
"kubernetes"` and stamps the legacy marker.
- `server/src/services/managed-environments.ts` (new):
`applyManagedEnvironments` boot step — no-op for self-hosted/empty;
throws (fail startup) when `PAPERCLIP_EXECUTION_MODE` is also set, since
both would own the same managed sandbox row; otherwise ensures each
declared environment fail-safe per entry (log + continue boot, matching
bundled-plugin provisioning posture).
- `server/src/index.ts`: runs the new boot step right after the
execution-policy bootstrap, before the heartbeat resumes queued runs.
- `server/src/services/index.ts`: exports `applyManagedEnvironments` and
`ManagedEnvironmentSpec`.
- Secrets stay out of the document by construction: provider credentials
reach managed instances only as process env vars (each provider's
documented fallback, e.g. `DAYTONA_API_KEY` for the Daytona plugin).

## Verification

```sh
cd server
pnpm exec tsc --noEmit -p tsconfig.json
pnpm exec vitest run \
  src/__tests__/managed-config.test.ts \
  src/services/managed-environments.test.ts \
  src/services/execution-policy-bootstrap.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/environment-service.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/environment-instance-routes.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/plugin-install-guard.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/environment-execution-target.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/instance-settings-managed-overlay.test.ts \
  src/__tests__/bundled-plugins.test.ts
```

All pass locally (typecheck clean; environment-service suite runs
against embedded Postgres and exercises the refactored Kubernetes
wrapper plus the new generic ensure: create/refresh, provider switch,
unmanaged-row adoption, name-conflict fallback). New tests cover the
parser (12 cases incl. secret-key rejection at depth) and the boot step
(no-op, mutual exclusion, pass-through, fail-safe).

## Risks

- **Self-hosted: none intended.** Without `PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG`
nothing new executes; the `PAPERCLIP_EXECUTION_MODE=kubernetes` path is
regression-covered by the existing bootstrap/service/route suites (all
green).
- **Behavioral shift in `ensureKubernetesEnvironment` (deliberate):** it
now also refreshes `name`/`description` to their managed defaults each
boot (desired-state semantics, same as config today) and adopts a
`managedByPaperclip` sandbox row that lacks the Kubernetes marker —
previously that state made the ensure throw every boot.
- **New startup failure modes are all explicit misconfigurations**
(malformed section, provider not auto-installed, secret in config,
execution-mode conflict) and fail with precise errors; DB-side ensure
failures never block boot (fail-safe per entry, logged).
- No migrations; no API surface changes.

## Model Used

Devin FoleyandPaperclip d1b9448b57 fix(server): stamp the real build version into images instead of the package.json placeholder (#10257)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work; it ships as a Docker image that self-hosters and managed
deployments run.
> - The server resolves its own version at runtime in
`server/src/version.ts` (`resolveServerVersion()`), which feeds
analytics and the server debug panel.
> - That resolver derives the real version from `git describe`, and
falls back to `server/package.json`'s `version` when git isn't
available.
> - But `server/package.json`'s version is a static placeholder — CI
only stamps the real CalVer at publish, so in source it is never the
real version (currently `0.3.1`).
> - A Docker image has no `.git` (it's dockerignored), so `git describe`
can't run inside it. Every image therefore falls back to the placeholder
and reports `0.3.1` in analytics and the debug panel, regardless of
which commit it was built from.
> - This PR computes the real version once on the CI build runner (where
`.git` and tags exist), bakes it into the image, and has
`resolveServerVersion()` prefer that stamp when `git describe` is
unavailable.
> - The benefit: self-hosted and cloud images report their true version
instead of a misleading placeholder, with no change to dev checkouts,
`git describe`-based resolution, or local `docker build`.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists — describing the bug inline (per the bug report
template).

**What happened?**
Docker images built from `master` (and release tags) report the server
version as the `0.3.1` placeholder in analytics and the server debug
panel, instead of the real version of the commit the image was built
from.

**Expected behavior**
An image reports the real version of its build commit (e.g.
`2026.722.0+51.git.<sha>`), so operators can tell which build is
running.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Build the server Docker image from any `master` commit (the `Docker`
workflow, `production` target).
2. Run the image and open the server debug panel (or inspect the version
reported to analytics).
3. Observe the version is `0.3.1` rather than the commit's real version.

**Root cause**
`resolveServerVersion()` derives the real version from `git describe`,
but the image has no `.git` (dockerignored), so it falls back to
`server/package.json`'s `version` — a static placeholder CI only
replaces with the real CalVer at publish time. Nothing bakes the real
version into the image.

**Paperclip version or commit:** reproduces on `master` (`4c55f0d8`) and
any published image.
**Deployment mode:** self-hosted and managed (both the `production` and
`-cloud` images).
**Installation method:** Docker image (`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip`).

**Related PRs (dedup search):** #9103 (merged — added the `git
describe`-based source-install resolution this builds on) and #9637
(closed). Neither bakes a version into the image; this PR closes that
gap. No duplicate found.

## What Changed

- **`.github/workflows/docker.yml`** — checkout with full history + tags
(`fetch-depth: 0`), and a new `Compute build version` step that runs
`git describe --tags --match 'v*' --long --dirty` on the pristine runner
checkout. The result is passed as a `PAPERCLIP_BUILD_VERSION` build-arg
to both the `production` and `-cloud` image builds.
- **`Dockerfile`** — the `production` stage takes an `ARG
PAPERCLIP_BUILD_VERSION` (default empty) and bakes it into the runtime
`ENV`; the `cloud` stage inherits it via `FROM production`.
- **`server/src/build-version.ts`** (new) — `readBuildVersion()` /
`parseBuildVersion()`, mirroring `build-commit.ts`: reads
`PAPERCLIP_BUILD_VERSION` (or a `.paperclip-build-version` file) as a
single-token stamp.
- **`server/src/version.ts`** — `resolveServerVersion()` prefers the
baked build version when `git describe` is unavailable, parsing it with
the same rules as a live checkout (`parseGitDescribeVersion`), and
falling through to the existing `build-commit` stamp and package version
when unset. A live checkout's `git describe` still wins over any stamp.
- Tests for the new behavior and the precedence.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk ensure-build-deps && tsc
--noEmit` in `server/` — clean.
- `vitest run server/src/__tests__/version.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/build-version.test.ts` — **23 tests pass**,
covering: stamped version used when git describe fails, stamp parsed to
real CalVer, stamp preferred over the build-commit fallback, on-tag
stamp collapses to the release version, a pre-resolved stamp used
verbatim, and a live git describe still winning over a stamp.
- `git describe --tags --match 'v*' --long` for this commit →
`v2026.722.0-51-g<sha>`, which `resolveServerVersion()` reports as
`2026.722.0+51.git.<sha>` — no longer `0.3.1`.
- Not run locally: the full multi-arch image build (CI-only). The
workflow change is verified by inspection; the version is computed on
the pristine checkout before any lockfile refresh, so it carries no
spurious `-dirty`.

## Risks

Low. Additive and image-only:
- No runtime behavior changes for dev checkouts (git describe still
primary and wins over any stamp) or for local `docker build` (empty arg
→ server keeps its existing fallbacks).
- Not a breaking change; no schema or API surface. The stamp is
informational (version reporting only).
- `fetch-depth: 0` makes the release-image checkout fetch full
history/tags — a modest cost on a workflow that already runs at release
cadence with a 60-minute budget.
- Rollback: revert the commit; images simply return to reporting the
placeholder.

## Model Used

thinking, with tool use / code execution — agentic edits, `tsc` +
`vitest` runs, and a `git describe` resolution check.

Devin Foley 965a827ee7 feat(docker): publish a cloud image variant with built bundled plugins (#10157)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Managed (cloud-hosted) deployments configure instances through
`PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG`, including a `plugins.autoInstall` key list
that the boot-time installer resolves against the bundled plugin catalog
> - The installer requires each bundled plugin's `dist/manifest.js`
(`server/src/services/bundled-plugins.ts`), but the published image only
ships the sandbox providers' *source* — they are intentionally excluded
from the pnpm workspace, and the Dockerfile never builds them
> - Every managed auto-install therefore logs `bundled plugin bundle not
present; skipping auto-install` and no sandbox provider can be
provisioned through managed config
> - Baking built plugins into the single published image would fix it
but makes every self-hosted pull carry the providers' `node_modules` for
a managed-only mechanism
> - This pull request adds a `cloud` Dockerfile target extending
`production` with built bundled plugins — parameterized by build arg and
currently just `daytona` — published alongside the default image with a
`-cloud` tag suffix
> - The benefit is working plugin auto-provisioning for managed
deployments while the self-hosted image stays byte-identical and the
cloud variant only carries what is actually deployed

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Fixes #10158 (filed for this problem; no prior issue existed — searched
for duplicate/related PRs and issues around bundled plugins, docker
image variants, and auto-install). Summary: **What happened:** on a
managed instance with `plugins.autoInstall: ["daytona"]` delivered via
`PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG`, boot logs `bundled plugin bundle not
present; skipping auto-install` with `pluginPath:
/app/packages/plugins/sandbox-providers/daytona`, and the plugin is
never installed. **Expected:** the advertised bundled-catalog keys are
installable from the published image. **Why:** the image ships plugin
source without `dist/` — nothing in the Dockerfile builds the
workspace-excluded sandbox providers.

## What Changed

- `Dockerfile`: new `cloud-plugins` stage (based on `build`, so
devDependencies are available for `tsc`) that installs and builds each
provider named in the `CLOUD_BUNDLED_PLUGINS` build arg standalone
(`pnpm install --ignore-workspace --no-lockfile && pnpm build`, exactly
as the providers' READMEs prescribe), asserting `dist/manifest.js`
exists per plugin and failing loudly on unknown names; new `cloud` stage
= `production` + the built plugin tree. The arg defaults to `daytona` —
the only provider managed deployments auto-install today; every entry
adds its `node_modules` to the image, so the list grows only with actual
need (a one-line workflow change).
- `.github/workflows/docker.yml`: the existing build step is pinned to
`target: production` (without this, the new trailing stage would
silently become the default build target — this pin is what keeps the
self-hosted image identical); new metadata + build-push steps publish
the `cloud` target (with `CLOUD_BUNDLED_PLUGINS=daytona`) under the same
tag set with a `-cloud` suffix (`sha-<short>-cloud`, `latest-cloud`,
`<version>-cloud`), same schema labels, reusing the GHA layer cache

## Verification

- All seven sandbox providers build standalone from a clean checkout
with the exact commands the new stage runs, each producing
`dist/manifest.js` — so the current `daytona` default works and future
list additions are known-good
- The stage's shell loop was dry-run against the checkout (directory
existence + per-plugin assertion logic)
- Workflow YAML lints clean
- **Not run:** a full multi-arch `docker build` (no local docker
daemon). The `cloud` stage is additive and the default target is pinned,
so the risk is contained to the new build step; the first master build
after merge proves it end-to-end

## Risks

- Self-hosted behavior: unchanged. The default image build is pinned to
the `production` target, which produces the same layers as before this
change; the `cloud` stages run only for the new build step.
- The plugin installs in the `cloud-plugins` stage use `--no-lockfile`
(the providers are workspace-excluded and lockfile-less by design), so
plugin dependency resolution is not pinned at image-build time. This
mirrors the existing Plugins-page install path, which resolves from npm
at install time.
- CI cost: one additional build-push per master push. It reuses the
layer cache from the production build, so the marginal work is the
single plugin's build layers.
- An unknown name in `CLOUD_BUNDLED_PLUGINS`, or a provider that stops
producing `dist/manifest.js`, fails the cloud build loudly rather than
publishing a broken variant.

## Model Used

Claude (Anthropic), model ID `claude-fable-5[1m]` via Claude Code CLI —
extended thinking and tool use (code edits, standalone plugin build
verification, workflow lint).

## Checklist

them above
- [x] Self-hosted behavior unchanged (default build target pinned to

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 14f20be92b ci: harden Docker image build workflow against lockfile drift and runner disk exhaustion (#10142)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The Docker image publish workflow (`.github/workflows/docker.yml`)
builds and pushes the multi-arch `ghcr.io` image on every master push,
so users pulling the container get the latest code
> - The two newest master runs of that workflow failed, so no images
have been published past a recent master commit
> - The failures had two distinct causes: run
[30054330748](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/30054330748)
hit `ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH` (committed `pnpm-lock.yaml`
drifted from `patchedDependencies` in package metadata), and run
[30050197392](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/30050197392)
hit `no space left on device` during the multi-arch buildx export
> - This pull request hardens the publish job against both failure
modes: it refreshes the lockfile (lockfile-only, guarded) before the
build, and frees runner disk space before buildx setup
> - The benefit is that image publishing keeps working through routine
lockfile drift and the growing multi-arch build footprint, so `ghcr.io`
images stay current with master

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Refs #8286 — same class of Docker-build lockfile mismatch failure
- Refs #8827 — pnpm 9.15.x pin / lockfile regeneration discussion
- Note: the immediate lockfile drift on master was fixed by #10132; the
refresh step here prevents the *next* drift from breaking image
publishing again

## What Changed

- Added a pnpm + Node setup and a **"Refresh lockfile for Docker build
context"** step to the image job in `.github/workflows/docker.yml`: runs
`pnpm install --lockfile-only --ignore-scripts --no-frozen-lockfile`,
exits cleanly if nothing changed, and **fails the job if anything other
than `pnpm-lock.yaml` was modified** by the refresh
- Added a **"Free runner disk"** step (before buildx setup) that prunes
the pnpm store, apt caches, preinstalled toolchains
(`/usr/share/dotnet`, Android SDK, Swift, Boost, PowerShell, GHC,
CodeQL/PyPy/Ruby toolcache), and dangling Docker state, logging `df -h`
before/after
- No changes outside the workflow file (54 added lines, nothing removed)

## Verification

- Pulled the logs of both failed master runs and matched each failure to
the step that addresses it:
[30054330748](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/30054330748)
failed with `ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH`,
[30050197392](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/30050197392)
failed with `no space left on device` during the buildx export
- Confirmed pnpm `9.15.4` in the new setup step matches the repo
`packageManager` field and the version used in the Dockerfile, so the
refreshed lockfile is generated by the same pnpm the image build
consumes
- Validated the workflow YAML parses cleanly
- The workflow triggers on master pushes / manual dispatch; the
definitive check is the first master run after merge — reviewers can
also `workflow_dispatch` it from this branch if desired

## Risks

- The lockfile refresh runs with `--ignore-scripts` and a guard that
aborts on any non-lockfile change, so it cannot silently pull unexpected
code into the image; worst case it fails the job with a clear diff
- The published image could be built from a refreshed lockfile that
differs from the committed one when drift exists — that keeps publishing
alive but can mask drift on master, which still needs the committed
lockfile fixed (as #10132 did)
- Disk cleanup removes preinstalled toolchains only on the ephemeral
runner for this job; other jobs/workflows are unaffected
- Low risk overall: additive steps in a single workflow file

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic) — `claude-fable-5` (Claude Code agent harness,
extended thinking, tool use). Used to diagnose the failing CI runs from
logs, author the workflow changes, and prepare this PR.

Devin Foley 176a9e8230 fix(built-in-agents): allow first-time setup of a needs_setup built-in under board-approval policy (#10129)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Companies can require **board approval for new agents**; built-in
agents (e.g. the Reflection Coach / Briefs) are provisioned through the
`built-in-agents` service `provision()`
> - Some built-in agents are *auto-provisioned* as a hire that, once
approved, resolves to an idle agent row whose `adapterConfig` is still
empty — status `needs_setup`
> - When the board operator then opens that agent's setup dialog and
submits the adapter config, `provision()` saw
`adapterType`/`adapterConfig` on an already-existing row and classified
it as a **reconfiguration**, throwing a dead-end 409: *"Built-in agent
adapter changes require board approval before they can be applied."*
> - The operator *is* the board, so there was no one left to grant an
approval they already implicitly hold — setup could never be completed
> - This pull request treats first-time adapter setup of a `needs_setup`
built-in as the first-time configuration it actually is, applying it
directly while still gating genuine reconfiguration of a live agent
> - The benefit is the board can finish setting up an auto-provisioned
built-in agent without hitting an unsatisfiable approval wall

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

<!-- No public GitHub issue exists; describing the underlying bug in-PR
following the bug_report template. -->

**What happened?**

With "require board approval for new agents" enabled, completing the
adapter setup of an auto-provisioned but unconfigured built-in agent
(status `needs_setup`, e.g. the Reflection Coach) failed with a 409 —
*"Built-in agent adapter changes require board approval before they can
be applied."* — even for the board user. Because the operator *is* the
board, no additional approver existed, so setup was permanently blocked.
Root cause: in `builtInAgentService.provision()`, any request carrying
`adapterType`/`adapterConfig` against an existing row was treated as a
reconfiguration and gated, regardless of whether that row had ever
completed its initial adapter setup. An auto-provisioned hire resolves
to an idle row with an empty `adapterConfig` (`needs_setup`), so its
very first configuration was misclassified.

**Expected behavior**

The board can complete first-time setup of an already-sanctioned
built-in agent without a fresh approval, matching the behavior when
board approval is not required. Genuine reconfiguration of an
already-configured (`ready`/`paused`) agent should still require
approval.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. In a company with `requireBoardApprovalForNewAgents` enabled, have a
built-in agent auto-provisioned so its row exists but its adapter is
unconfigured (status `needs_setup`).
2. As the board user, open that agent's setup dialog and submit an
adapter type + config.
3. Observe the 409 "Built-in agent adapter changes require board
approval before they can be applied." with no way for the board to grant
the approval.

**Deployment mode**

Local single-instance / self-hosted (server `built-in-agents` service).

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/built-in-agents.ts`: In `provision()`, when the
existing built-in row has **not** yet completed adapter setup
(`!hasCompleteAdapterConfig(...)`, i.e. `needs_setup`), first-time
adapter configuration now applies directly via `ensure()` — the same
path used when board approval is not required. The hire that created the
row was already sanctioned, so no fresh approval is required.
- Reconfiguration of an already-configured (`ready`/`paused`) built-in
agent stays gated behind board approval exactly as before, and
`pending_approval` rows are handled before the new branch.
- `server/src/__tests__/built-in-agents.test.ts`: Added a regression
test — under `requireApproval: true`, completing first-time setup of a
`needs_setup` built-in returns `approval: null`, transitions the agent
to `ready`, and creates **no** approval row.

## Verification

```bash
cd server
npx vitest run src/__tests__/built-in-agents.test.ts
# Test Files  1 passed (1)
#       Tests  31 passed (31)
```

- New test `completes first-time setup of a needs_setup built-in without
a fresh board approval` passes.
- Full `built-in-agents.test.ts` suite (31 tests) passes, including
existing tests that assert genuine reconfiguration of a configured agent
**remains** gated.

## Risks

Low risk. The change narrows an over-broad approval gate: it only opens
the direct-apply path for rows that have never completed adapter setup
(`needs_setup`), determined by the existing `hasCompleteAdapterConfig`
predicate that already drives `deriveBuiltInAgentStatus`.
Already-configured (`ready`/`paused`) agents, and `pending_approval`
rows, are unaffected and still gated. No schema or migration changes.

Devin Foley 429792f1f3 fix(interactions): stop wedging confirmation accept on a terminal workspace_finalize (#10099)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - When an agent finishes work in an execution workspace, the board can
confirm the result through an issue-thread interaction (e.g. the
"Merged" / mark-done confirmation button on a `request_confirmation`).
> - That accept action is gated: it must not race a worktree sync-back
(`workspace_finalize`) that is still copying the agent's commits out of
the sandbox, or the board could act on a base that hasn't received them
yet.
> - The gate (`runWorkspaceIsFinalized`) treated the sync-back as
"settled" only when the latest `workspace_finalize` op was `succeeded` —
so a run whose finalize reached a terminal `failed` state, or died
leaving a stale `running` op, was treated as "still syncing" forever.
> - Users hit a permanent, misleading `... has not finished syncing its
workspace` error and could never click "Merged", even though nothing was
syncing and the run had long since ended.
> - This PR fixes the settle semantics so the gate blocks only while a
sync-back is genuinely pending or in flight, and treats any terminal (or
stale-orphaned) finalize as done.
> - The benefit is that a failed or abandoned sync-back no longer wedges
the human confirmation, while a genuinely in-flight sync-back on a live
run still blocks correctly.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this. Describing the bug in-PR (bug
report):

**What happened**

Clicking the "Merged" / mark-done confirmation at the bottom of an issue
thread returns an error that the workspace "has not finished syncing its
workspace" — but nothing is actually syncing, and the run that created
the interaction has already ended. The confirmation is permanently
stuck; the only workaround is to merge and mark the task done manually.

**Expected behavior**

Once the source run's worktree sync-back has finished — whether it
succeeded, failed, or was skipped — the confirmation should be
acceptable. The gate should block only while a sync-back is genuinely
still running on a live run.

**Steps to reproduce**

Have an agent run reach `workspace_finalize` and end without a
`succeeded` finalize (e.g. the sync-back fails, or the run process dies
mid-finalize leaving a `running` op). Then attempt to accept the
`request_confirmation` interaction it created → 409 "... has not
finished syncing its workspace" with no way to proceed.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on the current `master` line (server service); root cause is
in `runWorkspaceIsFinalized` in `server/src/services/issues.ts`.

**Deployment mode**

Local / self-hosted instance (server service).

**Root cause**

`runWorkspaceIsFinalized` returned `true` only when the latest
`workspace_finalize` operation was `succeeded`. A terminal `failed`
finalize (the sync-back ran and failed; it will not retry within that
run) and a `running` finalize left behind by a dead run both left the
gate closed forever.

## What Changed

- `runWorkspaceIsFinalized` (server/src/services/issues.ts) now treats a
sync-back as **settled** when the latest `workspace_finalize` op reached
any terminal status (`succeeded`, `failed`, or `skipped`), instead of
only `succeeded`.
- A `workspace_finalize` still marked `running` blocks only while its
owning run is alive; a `running` record left behind by a
terminal/missing run is treated as stale (settled), so a dead run can no
longer wedge the gate.
- Preserved existing behavior for the other cases: no operations
recorded at all → settled; earlier phases recorded but no
`workspace_finalize` yet → still blocks (the sync-back hasn't been
attempted).
- Extracted the run-liveness check into a shared exported helper
`heartbeatRunIsTerminalOrMissing` and reused it from the existing
`isTerminalOrMissingHeartbeatRun` closure (no behavior change there).
- Added a short comment at the confirmation-accept gate
(server/src/services/issue-thread-interactions.ts) documenting the
relaxed settle semantics.
- The dependency-readiness / blocker barrier
(`listPendingFinalizeBlockerIssueIds`) is deliberately left unchanged:
an automated dependent must not proceed onto a base that never received
a blocker's synced-back commits, so a failed finalize keeps that gate
closed. Only the human-driven confirmation accept is relaxed.
- Added regression tests for: failed finalize, stale `running` finalize
on a dead run, and a genuinely `running` finalize on a live run (must
still block).

## Verification

- `cd server && node_modules/.bin/vitest run
src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-service.test.ts -t "accept"` →
17 passed (includes the 3 new regression tests), 21 unrelated tests
skipped by the name filter.
- Manual reasoning walkthrough of `runWorkspaceIsFinalized` for each
op-history shape (no ops / earlier-phase-only / terminal finalize /
running-on-dead-run / running-on-live-run) confirms the intended
block-vs-settle outcome.

## Risks

- Low risk and narrowly scoped to the human confirmation-accept gate.
The only behavioral change is that a terminal (`failed`/`skipped`) or
stale-orphaned `running` finalize now settles the gate instead of
blocking forever.
- A genuinely in-flight sync-back on a live run still blocks (covered by
a regression test), so the accept cannot race commits that are actively
being synced back.
- The blocker/dependency barrier for automated dependents is unchanged,
so no dependent will be advanced onto a base missing a failed blocker's
commits.

## Model Used

- Provider/model: Claude (Anthropic), **Opus 4.8**, model ID
`claude-opus-4-8`, 1M context window.
- Capabilities used: extended thinking, tool use (repo inspection, local
test execution).

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 0ef3b320c7 Harden POST /plugins/install: canonicalize localPath for all instances; bundled-only floor for managed instances (#10067)
**Builds on** #10058 — managed detection keys off the *presence* of the
`PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG` env var that PR introduces, deliberately
never its parsed body.

**Summary.** Two layered hardenings of the plugin install route. (1) For
**all** instances: `localPath` installs previously skipped the
package-name validation entirely; the path is now null-byte-checked,
resolved absolute, `realpath`'d (collapsing `..` traversal and
symlinks), and required to be an existing directory before the loader
ever sees it. (2) For instances running under a managed hosting control
plane (detected by the *presence* of `PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG` —
deliberately never its body, so a corrupted document cannot widen the
surface): registry/npm installs return 403, and `localPath` installs
must canonicalize to inside the bundled plugin catalog root
(`packages/plugins`) — a positive allowlist enforced in code at the
route, independent of any flag value. Self-hosted behavior is otherwise
unchanged.

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The plugin system lets instance admins install plugins from a
registry or from a local filesystem path, and plugin installation is
code execution on the host
> - The `localPath` branch of `POST /plugins/install` skips the
validation applied to registry installs; the raw path reaches the plugin
loader without canonicalization
> - Separately, instances operated by a managed hosting control plane
must constrain installs to the bundled plugin catalog, because there the
host belongs to the operator, not the tenant
> - This pull request canonicalizes and validates `localPath` for all
instances, and adds a bundled-only install floor for managed instances
> - The benefit is a smaller install-route attack surface everywhere,
and a positive code-enforced allowlist where the operator owns the
machine

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists; `bug_report` template fields for the validation
gap this PR fixes:

- **What happened:** `POST /plugins/install` with `localPath` set
bypasses the package-name validation entirely; the un-canonicalized path
(relative segments, symlinks, no existence check) is handed straight to
the plugin loader.
- **Expected behavior:** path installs are validated like registry
installs — null-byte-checked, resolved absolute, `realpath`'d, and
required to be an existing directory before the loader sees them.
- **Steps to reproduce:** as an instance admin, call `POST
/plugins/install` with a `localPath` containing `..` traversal or a
symlink pointing outside any plugin directory; observe the loader
receives the raw path. Exploitability is bounded (the route already
requires instance admin), so this is hardening of an admin-only surface
rather than an open exploit.
- **Version:** current `master`.

The managed-instance bundled-only floor layered on top is new behavior
(motivation: on managed hosting, arbitrary plugin install is arbitrary
code execution on operator infrastructure), aligned with the in-progress
"Cloud deployments" milestone in `ROADMAP.md`.

## What Changed

- New `server/src/services/plugin-install-guard.ts` — three pure
primitives: managed detection (presence-based), path canonicalization
(null-byte check → absolute resolve → `realpath` → must be an existing
directory), and segment-based containment in the bundled plugin catalog
root.
- Route enforcement in `server/src/routes/plugins.ts`: npm/registry
installs return 403 on managed instances; `localPath` installs are
canonicalized on every instance and, on managed instances, must land
inside the bundled catalog root.
- The plugin loader now receives the canonical path instead of the raw
request string.

## Verification

- 15 guard unit tests
(`server/src/__tests__/plugin-install-guard.test.ts`): traversal,
symlink escape, null byte, file-vs-directory, string-prefix sibling
root.
- 13 route security tests
(`server/src/__tests__/plugin-install-route-security.test.ts`): 403
matrix on managed instances + self-hosted happy paths.
- 36 existing plugin route authz tests green
(`server/src/__tests__/plugin-routes-authz.test.ts`).
- Server `tsc --noEmit` clean.

```bash
cd server
pnpm vitest run src/__tests__/plugin-install-guard.test.ts src/__tests__/plugin-install-route-security.test.ts src/__tests__/plugin-routes-authz.test.ts
pnpm exec tsc --noEmit
```

## Risks

- Managed instances: npm/registry installs and out-of-catalog
`localPath` installs now return 403 — intended new behavior, enforced in
code rather than configuration.
- All instances: `localPath` installs that previously pointed at
nonexistent paths or non-directories now fail with 400 before reaching
the loader (previously the loader failed later, less safely). Symlinked
deployment layouts are handled by canonicalizing both sides of the
containment check.
- Self-hosted npm install path is unchanged. Low residual risk.

## Model Used

Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`), extended thinking, agentic tool use;
independently peer-reviewed by a second AI agent before push.

Devin Foley 04e070bf45 docs(skill): require agents to claim only monitors they actually scheduled (#10064)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work, and the shared `skills/paperclip/SKILL.md` is the behavioral
contract every managed agent follows each heartbeat.
> - Issue continuation between heartbeats depends on real, persisted
state: an issue only auto-resumes when it has a scheduled **issue
monitor** (`monitorNextCheckAt` + an execution-policy `monitor` block)
that the server's `tickDueIssueMonitors` scheduler polls and re-wakes
via `issue_monitor_due`.
> - A run/heartbeat is an ephemeral execution window — nothing keeps
"watching" after it exits — but the skill never said this, so agents
narrated a "watcher in this run" as if a live subscription existed.
> - That gap produced a concrete user-facing failure: an agent claimed
"a watcher in this run wakes me when CI + Greptile complete," then the
run ended with no monitor scheduled and nothing ever resumed, leaving
the user unsure whether a watcher existed at all.
> - This PR closes the gap by documenting what a monitor actually is and
adding hard rules so agents only claim a watcher they have actually
scheduled, describe it in checkable terms, and never imply a live
watcher on a task they mark `done`.
> - The benefit is that agent narration stays consistent with the
disposition guard and recovery classifier that already enforce these
paths in state, so users get accurate expectations about whether and
when a task will resume.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

This is a documentation-only change to a shared agent skill, so no code
issue is required. The underlying problem it addresses:

**Problem or motivation** — Agents were telling users that a "watcher in
this run" would wake them when external checks (CI, Greptile) finished,
when no persisted issue monitor had been scheduled. Because a heartbeat
is ephemeral, no such watcher exists after the run exits, so the task
silently never resumed and the user was left confused about what would
happen next.

**Proposed solution** — Document, in the shared skill, exactly what an
issue monitor is (durable `monitorNextCheckAt` + execution-policy
`monitor` block, polled by `tickDueIssueMonitors`, re-woken via
`issue_monitor_due`) and add rules that agents may only claim a
watcher/monitor after actually scheduling one, must describe it in
checkable terms (kind / next check / timeout / attempts), and must never
imply a live watcher on a task being marked `done`.

**Alternatives considered** — Enforcing purely in server state (the
disposition guard and recovery classifier already reject
`in_review`/parked issues without a real wake path). That enforcement
exists but does not stop an agent from *narrating* a non-existent
watcher in a comment; aligning the skill guidance with the existing
state enforcement is the missing piece.

## What Changed

- Added a **"Monitors and Watchers (say only what you actually
scheduled)"** subsection to `skills/paperclip/SKILL.md` explaining that
a watcher does not live inside a run, and that only a persisted issue
monitor can auto-resume an issue (with the concrete fields and the
`tickDueIssueMonitors` / `issue_monitor_due` polling path).
- Added three behavioral rules: only claim a monitor after scheduling
one (and how to schedule/confirm it via `PATCH /api/issues/{id}` and
`monitor/check-now`); describe monitors in checkable terms; never imply
a live watcher on a task marked `done`.
- Cross-referenced the rule from the **Critical Rules** list.
- Tightened the final-disposition checklist so `in_review` /
`in_progress` continuation requires a real, non-null
`monitorNextCheckAt` rather than a merely described one.

## Verification

- Docs-only change to `skills/paperclip/SKILL.md`; no code paths are
affected.
- Confirmed every identifier referenced in the new text is real in the
codebase: `monitorNextCheckAt`, `monitorScheduledBy`,
`executionPolicy.monitor`, `tickDueIssueMonitors`, and the
`issue_monitor_due` wake reason.
- Rendered the Markdown to confirm the new subsection and the Critical
Rules bullet display correctly and links resolve within the document.
- `git diff` confirms the change is limited to the single skill file (14
insertions, 2 deletions).

## Risks

Low risk. This is guidance text in a shared agent skill with no runtime
or schema impact. Worst case is stylistic wording that can be refined in
a follow-up; it cannot break builds, migrations, or behavior. It
strengthens (never loosens) the existing disposition guarantees.

## Model Used

Claude Opus 4.8 (model id `claude-opus-4-8`, 1M-context variant) running
in an agent harness with extended thinking and tool use (file edit,
shell, git, GitHub CLI).

Devin Foley 62e367c1b2 fix(ui): rewrite recovery and blocked-notice copy in plain language (#10065)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The issue-detail UI shows recovery cards and blocked/parked notices
when a task loses its next step — a run finished with no disposition, a
task is stranded, work is blocked behind other tasks, or an assigned
item sits in the backlog
> - That copy was written in the scheduler's internal vocabulary —
"Corrective wake queued", "Graph Liveness", "lost a live action path",
"the responsible" — which describes Paperclip's internals rather than
the user's situation
> - Users seeing these cards report having no idea what the card means
or what they are supposed to do
> - This pull request rewrites the user-facing copy in plain language
and adds explicit calls to action that match the options in the card's
Resolve menu
> - The benefit is that a non-expert operator can read a recovery or
blocked notice and immediately understand what happened and which action
to take next

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this; describing the problem here
(bug-report format):

- **What happened:** Recovery action cards and blocked notices render
internal jargon, e.g. the headline "Paperclip detected this task lost a
live action path. A recovery owner needs to act.", the chip "Corrective
wake queued", the kind label "Graph Liveness", and phrases like
"Comments still wake the responsible". Status values also appear as raw
code literals (`in_progress`, `todo`).
- **Expected behavior:** These notices should tell a normal user, in
plain language, what happened and what to do next (retry the task, mark
it done, send it for review, or record a blocker).
- **Impact:** Operators stall on tasks that only need a simple
disposition because the UI doesn't tell them that's what is being asked.

Related prior work: #9417 (merged) made the reopen-suppressed blocked
message explicit; this PR extends the same plain-language treatment to
the rest of the recovery and blocked-notice copy.

## What Changed

- Recovery card headlines for `missing_disposition`,
`stranded_assigned_issue`, and `issue_graph_liveness` now say what
Paperclip found and name the concrete next steps ("try the task again,
mark it done, or send it for review") matching the card's Resolve menu.
- The `issue_graph_liveness` kind label "Graph Liveness" is now "Task
Needs Next Step", and the "Wake" metadata row is now "Follow-up".
- Wake-policy chips describe actual behavior: "An agent will be asked to
choose the next step" (was "Corrective wake queued"), "Board will
decide", "Manual follow-up needed", "Repair needed before retry", "Check
scheduled".
- Blocked/waiting/parked notices say "the assignee" instead of "the
responsible" / "responsible agent", and "notify" instead of "wake".
- The still-needs-a-next-step notice drops raw `in_progress` code
literals and keeps a plain-language option list (mark done or cancelled,
send for review, record what is blocking it, delegate follow-up).
- Parked-backlog notice renders "To do / In progress" as plain labels
instead of code literals.
- Component tests updated to pin the new copy and the successful-run
example options.

## Verification

- `cd ui && npx vitest run
src/components/IssueRecoveryActionCard.test.tsx
src/components/IssueBlockedNotice.test.tsx
src/components/IssueAssignedBacklogNotice.test.tsx
src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx` — 4 files, 126 tests, all
passing.
- Copy-only review: the diff touches display strings, one label map
entry, and test assertions; no control flow, props, or identifiers
change.

## Risks

- Low risk — user-facing strings and test updates only. No behavior,
API, or schema changes. The only functional surface is that anything
keying off the displayed text (e.g. screenshots, external docs) will
show the new wording.

extended thinking enabled, running in Claude Code with agentic tool use.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 0f898f95af Render managed experimental settings as locked, with a 'Managed by Paperclip Cloud' badge (#10061)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The experimental settings page renders one interactive toggle per
feature from the settings API
> - On managed instances some values are enforced by the hosting control
plane, and the API now reports those keys as managed
> - Rendering enforced values as live toggles misleads users: the click
appears to work, and the value silently snaps back
> - This pull request renders managed keys as locked toggles with a
"Managed by Paperclip Cloud" badge and guards the handlers so no PATCH
can be emitted
> - The benefit is UI honesty on managed instances, with self-hosted
responses rendering exactly as before

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Builds on #10058 — renders the per-key `managedKeys` metadata #10058
adds to settings responses (typing shared from #10058 at rebase).

No public issue exists; `feature_request` template fields:

- **Problem or motivation:** on managed instances users see fully
interactive toggles for settings the control plane enforces; changes
appear to apply and never do, with no explanation.
- **Proposed solution:** disabled toggle + badge + guarded handler
driven by the settings response's managed-key metadata; the ~17 uniform
setting cards are extracted into one shared component with copy,
aria-labels, and patch payloads preserved verbatim.
- **Alternatives considered:** hiding managed settings entirely (users
lose sight of the effective value and why it is fixed); tooltip-only
hints on still-active toggles (doomed PATCHes are still emitted and
stripped server-side).
- **Roadmap alignment:** supports the in-progress "Cloud deployments"
milestone in `ROADMAP.md`.

## What Changed

- When the settings API reports a feature key as managed (`managedKeys`
from the managed-config overlay), the experimental settings page renders
that toggle disabled with a badge and a guarded handler, so a click can
never emit a PATCH. Previously, managed-instance users saw fully
interactive toggles they could never actually change. Self-hosted
responses (no `managedKeys`) render exactly as before.
- The ~17 copy-pasted uniform setting cards are extracted into one
`ExperimentalToggleCard` component with titles, descriptions, footnotes,
aria-labels, and patch payloads preserved verbatim; the two bespoke
cards get inline managed handling (the managed auto-recovery toggle also
cannot open its preview dialog).
- `ui/src/api/instanceSettings.ts` response typing now uses the shared
`InstanceExperimentalSettingsWithManaged` / `ManagedSettingMetadata`
types from #10058; `ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.tsx`
locked rendering + card extraction; tests.

## Verification

- 24 page tests (20 existing unmodified + 4 new: locked badge with no
PATCH while unmanaged keys stay editable; managed auto-recovery opens no
dialog; an open recovery preview closes with no PATCH when a refresh
marks auto-recovery managed; self-hosted unaffected): `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` clean

## Risks

- Low risk. UI-only change; no server or API behavior changes.
Self-hosted responses carry no `managedKeys`, so the page renders
exactly as before there. The card extraction preserves copy,
aria-labels, and patch payloads verbatim, covered by the 20 pre-existing
page tests passing unmodified.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip c4cdcc4826 Generalize bundled plugin provisioning: ensureBundledKubernetesPlugin → ensureBundledPlugins (#10063)
**Builds on** #10058 — reads `plugins.autoInstall` from the parsed
managed-config contract #10058 introduces (the interim
`readManagedPluginAutoInstall` shim is retired at rebase).

**Summary.** Boot-time bundled-plugin provisioning becomes
catalog-driven. A new bundled-plugin catalog lists the sandbox providers
shipped in-tree (keys like `kubernetes`, `daytona` → plugin key + path
under the catalog root). Managed instances read `plugins.autoInstall`
from `PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG`; unknown keys or paths escaping the
catalog root (symlinks resolved) **throw before listen** — a managed
instance refuses to start rather than boot half-provisioned.
Installation keeps today's mechanism: an in-process, fail-safe
`loader.installPlugin({ localPath })` under a system actor — no HTTP
route, no user, no role widening. Self-hosted boot is unchanged
(kubernetes bundle only, existing env override honored, install failures
still log-and-continue).

**Semantics.** A plugin already present in any non-uninstalled state is
skipped, so an operator-disabled plugin is never silently re-enabled;
managed mode reinstalls soft-uninstalled bundles (the control plane owns
provisioning); removal from the autoInstall list never auto-uninstalls.

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Sandbox-provider plugins ship in-tree, but boot-time provisioning is
hard-coded to exactly one of them (Kubernetes) via a bespoke function
> - On managed hosting, tenant users have no install privileges, so any
bundled plugin that is not provisioned at boot is unusable
> - Widening install routes or granting roles to fix that would trade a
provisioning gap for a security regression
> - This pull request generalizes the existing boot installer into a
catalog-driven `ensureBundledPlugins`, fed by `plugins.autoInstall` from
`PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG`
> - The benefit is that managed tenants get working bundled plugins out
of the box, through the same in-process, role-free mechanism the
codebase already trusts, while self-hosted boot is unchanged

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists; `feature_request` template fields:

- **Problem or motivation:** on managed instances tenant users cannot
install plugins (by design they never hold instance admin), so even
plugins shipped with the product are unusable; boot provisioning
currently knows only the Kubernetes bundle.
- **Proposed solution:** a bundled-plugin catalog plus
`ensureBundledPlugins(keys)` driven by the managed config; same
in-process `loader.installPlugin({ localPath })` under a system actor;
unknown keys or catalog-escaping paths fail startup; already-present
plugins are skipped so operator-disabled plugins are never silently
re-enabled.
- **Alternatives considered:** granting tenant users install privileges
(widens secrets/adapters/settings access to solve a one-button problem);
a separate non-admin install route for bundled plugins (new authz
surface; provisioning removes the need for any install action at all).
- **Roadmap alignment:** supports the in-progress "Cloud deployments"
milestone and builds on the shipped sandbox-provider milestone in
`ROADMAP.md`.

Refs #10058.

## What Changed

- New `server/src/services/bundled-plugins.ts`: the bundled-plugin
catalog, the fail-to-start resolver (`resolveBundledPluginInstalls`,
positive allowlist + catalog-root containment with symlinks resolved),
and the fail-safe installer (`ensureBundledPlugins`).
- `server/src/app.ts`: replaces the hard-coded
`ensureBundledKubernetesPlugin` boot hook with resolver + installer
wiring, with test hooks (`managedPluginAutoInstall`,
`bundledPluginCatalogRoot` options).
- `server/src/index.ts`: passes `plugins.autoInstall` from the single
fail-closed `PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG` startup parse (#10058) into
`createApp`; absent env means self-hosted and changes nothing.

## Verification

- 24 new tests in `server/src/__tests__/bundled-plugins.test.ts`
(catalog resolution, containment incl. symlink and `..` escapes,
skip/reinstall matrix, self-hosted invariants, installer error paths) —
all green.
- 85 adjacent startup/plugin-route/auto-build/managed-config tests green
(`managed-config`, `instance-settings-managed-overlay`,
`plugin-install-autobuild`, `plugin-routes-authz`,
`server-startup-feedback-export`).
- Server `tsc --noEmit` clean.

```bash
cd server
npx vitest run src/__tests__/bundled-plugins.test.ts
npx vitest run src/__tests__/managed-config.test.ts src/__tests__/instance-settings-managed-overlay.test.ts src/__tests__/plugin-install-autobuild.test.ts src/__tests__/plugin-routes-authz.test.ts src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts
npx tsc --noEmit
```

## Risks

- Managed instances with a malformed or unknown `plugins.autoInstall`
entry now **refuse to start** (fail closed, by design) instead of
booting half-provisioned; harness misconfiguration surfaces as a precise
startup error.
- Self-hosted behavior is unchanged (kubernetes bundle only,
`PAPERCLIP_KUBERNETES_PLUGIN_PATH` honored without containment, install
failures log-and-continue), so the default deployment path carries low
risk.
- No uninstall path exists in this module; removal from the autoInstall
list can leave a previously provisioned plugin installed (intentional v1
semantics, documented in code).

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 216d3d2680 Managed-instance config: fail-closed PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG parsing and read-time settings overlay (#10058)
**Builds on.** #10055 — the `catalogVersion` this config document pins
is the feature-catalog artifact #10055 emits.

**Summary.** Instances operated by a managed hosting control plane can
now receive instance configuration through a single environment
variable, `PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG` (versioned JSON: `mode`,
`catalogVersion`, `features`, `plugins.autoInstall`). When the variable
is absent the instance is self-hosted and nothing changes. When present,
parsing is strict and **fail-closed**: blank value, malformed JSON,
unknown feature key, a feature key this build's feature catalog does not
mark tier `managed`, missing required section, or unsupported version
refuses startup with a precise error — a typo that silently does nothing
is how a security control quietly fails. Managed feature values are
overlaid **at read time** inside the instance settings service (never
persisted), so a DB restore or manual row edit cannot resurrect a
disabled capability; responses expose per-key `managedKeys` metadata
(`managed: true`, `managedBy`) so clients can render locked state.

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Paperclip runs both self-hosted and under managed hosting, where an
operator's control plane owns instance configuration
> - Today instance feature settings live only in the tenant database; a
hosting control plane has no way to enforce a configuration that
tenant-side writes or restores cannot undo
> - Managed configuration will carry security posture, so delivery must
be atomic and parsing must fail closed — a typo that silently does
nothing is how a security control quietly fails
> - This pull request adds strict parsing of one
`PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG` env var and overlays its feature values at
read time inside the settings service, never persisting them
> - The benefit is a minimal, auditable managed-hosting contract: absent
var ⇒ self-hosted instances are byte-for-byte unchanged; present ⇒
deterministic, locked configuration surfaced to clients via per-key
managed metadata

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #966 — this PR delivers that issue's "managed config injection"
hook, via a strict env-var contract rather than the config-file path it
sketches; the issue's other hooks (identity header, health, usage
webhook, lifecycle, external secrets, IAM auth) are out of scope, so the
PR refs rather than closes it.

*Mechanism differs from #966's proposal, so the `feature_request` fields
are also filled in:*

- **Problem or motivation:** managed hosting deployments need to
centrally enable/disable instance features; DB-stored settings can be
edited, restored, or migrated back to permissive values, and nothing
marks a value as operator-enforced.
- **Proposed solution:** one versioned JSON env var; fail-closed parse
at startup; read-time overlay in the settings service (precedence:
managed value over stored value over schema default); `managedKeys`
metadata in settings responses so clients can render locked state.
- **Alternatives considered:** per-feature env vars (non-atomic across a
half-updated env set, unbounded env surface); seeding the DB at boot
(persisted values can be edited or restored over, and cannot express
"forced"); lenient warn-and-drop parsing (fails open — unacceptable for
a security-bearing control).
- **Roadmap alignment:** supports the in-progress "Cloud deployments"
milestone in `ROADMAP.md`.

## What Changed

- New `server/src/services/managed-config.ts` (pure parser over the env
record)
- Startup parse ordered before the first `instanceSettingsService`
construction in `server/src/index.ts`
- Read-time merge + `managedKeys` in the settings service
- Shared validator updates

## Verification

- 29 parser/overlay tests (fail-closed matrix incl. blank/whitespace
env, missing sections, catalog-tier mismatch, empty-section happy path):
`pnpm vitest run src/__tests__/managed-config.test.ts
src/__tests__/instance-settings-managed-overlay.test.ts` (from
`server/`)
- 40 existing settings route/service tests green: `pnpm vitest run
src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/instance-settings-service.test.ts` (from `server/`)
- 15 shared validator tests: `pnpm vitest run
src/validators/instance.test.ts` (from `packages/shared/`)
- Server `tsc --noEmit` clean: `pnpm typecheck` (from `server/`)

## Risks

- Self-hosted instances (no `PAPERCLIP_MANAGED_CONFIG` set) are
byte-for-byte unchanged — the parser only runs when the variable is
present.
- For managed instances, a malformed document now refuses startup by
design (fail-closed). This is an intentional behavioral guarantee, not a
regression: the control plane owns the variable and a precise startup
error is the contract.
- Overlay values are never persisted, so no migration or data-shape
risk.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip ad74fb5450 Add a feature catalog build artifact derived from the experimental settings schema (#10055)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Instances expose ~23 experimental feature settings, all declared in
one shared zod schema and toggled per instance
> - Deployment tooling and hosting control planes have no
machine-readable list of those feature keys for a given release — the
schema is only reachable from code that imports the package
> - Any external system that references feature keys therefore does so
as free text, and typos drift silently
> - This pull request derives a versioned `feature-catalog.json` build
artifact from the schema, with a compiler-checked metadata map so the
schema stays the single source of truth
> - The benefit is a stable contract external tooling can validate
feature-key references against, with zero runtime behavior change

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists; `feature_request` template fields:

**Problem or motivation:**
External deployment tooling cannot enumerate or validate an instance's
feature keys per release; free-text references fail silently when keys
are renamed or removed.

**Proposed solution:**
A metadata map keyed by the settings schema's own keys (compiler flags
drift) plus a build step emitting `feature-catalog.json` (keys, tiers,
defaults, `catalogVersion`) as a release artifact.

**Alternatives considered:**
A hand-maintained catalog file (drifts from the schema); serving the
schema from a runtime API (requires a running instance at validation
time — a build artifact works offline and pins to a release).

**Roadmap alignment:**
Supports the in-progress "Cloud deployments" milestone in `ROADMAP.md`.

## What Changed

Adds a metadata map (title, description, tier, cloud/self-hosted
defaults) keyed by the keys of `instanceExperimentalSettingsSchema`, so
the schema stays the single source of truth and the compiler flags any
drift. A new build step (`build:feature-catalog --version <v>`) emits
`feature-catalog.json` — all 23 feature keys, their tiers, and a
`catalogVersion` — as a release artifact that managed-hosting control
planes can validate feature-flag writes against. No runtime behavior
changes.

- New `packages/shared/src/feature-catalog.ts`: per-flag metadata map
keyed by a type derived from the settings schema
(adding/removing/renaming a flag without updating the map is a compile
error), plus `featureCatalogArtifactSchema` and
`buildFeatureCatalogArtifact`/`renderFeatureCatalogArtifact` for the
artifact
- New `scripts/generate-feature-catalog.ts` wired as `pnpm
build:feature-catalog --version <v>`
- `scripts/create-github-release.sh` generates the artifact and uploads
it as a GitHub Release asset (with a dry-run preview line)
- Tests in `packages/shared/src/feature-catalog.test.ts`

## Verification

- `vitest run packages/shared/src/feature-catalog.test.ts` — 9 tests:
schema-key coverage, drift detection, artifact shape
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`
- Artifact generation run end-to-end: `pnpm build:feature-catalog
--version 0.0.0-test` emits 23 keys with `catalogVersion`

## Risks

Low risk — no runtime behavior changes; the change is metadata, a build
script, and a release-artifact emission step only.

## Model Used

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 1944c86153 fix(ci): preserve required e2e check for sharded runs (#9923)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The pull request workflow is the main merge gate for changes to that
app.
> - The Playwright e2e lane is expensive because every spec shares one
isolated server and runs serially.
> - Splitting that lane across runners shortens the critical path, but
the public required-check contract still needs a check named exactly
`e2e`.
> - This pull request shards the real e2e work while preserving a fast
aggregate `e2e` job for branch protection.
> - The benefit is a faster PR workflow without making otherwise-good
PRs unmergeable because a legacy required check disappeared.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this CI follow-up.

Related prior CI work:

- Refs #8360
- Refs #9168
- Refs #9516

Bug report:

### What happened?

Sharding the PR e2e lane directly at the workflow job level changes the
emitted check names to shard-specific names, while existing branch
protection expects a check named exactly `e2e`.

### Expected behavior

The PR workflow should be able to run e2e specs across multiple runners
while still emitting a stable aggregate check named `e2e`.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Open a PR against `master`.
2. Run the PR workflow with the e2e lane split only as a matrix job.
3. Observe that the shard checks complete, but a required check named
exactly `e2e` never appears.

### Paperclip version or commit

Current `master`.

### Deployment mode

GitHub Actions pull request workflow.

## What Changed

- Added `scripts/e2e-shard.mjs`, which partitions default Playwright e2e
specs by recorded per-spec duration.
- Added `scripts/e2e-shard-durations.json` with measured e2e spec
durations so the slow smoke-lab spec does not dominate one runner.
- Split the PR workflow e2e lane into two `e2e_shards` matrix jobs and
added a fast aggregate job named exactly `e2e`.
- Added `scripts/__tests__/e2e-shard.test.mjs` to lock the shard
partition, ignored-spec sync, manifest coverage, and aggregate
required-check contract.

## Verification

- `node --test scripts/__tests__/e2e-shard.test.mjs`
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/run-vitest-stable-shard.test.mjs`
- `git diff --check upstream/master..HEAD`
- Searched GitHub for duplicate or related e2e-shard / required-check
PRs and issues before opening this PR; no direct duplicate was found.

## Risks

Low risk. The main risk is that the duration manifest can drift as specs
are added or runtimes change; missing specs fall back to the median
known duration, and the focused shard test catches empty, overlapping,
or badly imbalanced partitions.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5 via Codex CLI coding agent, with shell/tool execution and
repository inspection.

Devin Foley 2f42a4968d Treat cloud-managed instances as bootstrapped in the health gate (#9912)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Paperclip instances can be self-hosted, or provisioned and managed
by a cloud control plane that authenticates users through trusted
headers validated against `PAPERCLIP_CLOUD_TENANT_SERVER_TOKEN`
(`resolveCloudTenantActor`)
> - In `authenticated` deployment mode, the health route reports
`bootstrapStatus: bootstrap_pending` until at least one `instance_admin`
exists, and the UI locks everyone out at the "waiting on its first
admin" claim screen until then — correct for self-hosted instances,
where a human operator must claim the instance
> - But the cloud-tenant trust middleware, by deliberate security
hardening, never grants `instance_admin` and actively purges legacy
grants — so a cloud-managed instance can never leave
`bootstrap_pending`: the gate demands a role the middleware forbids
> - Every control-plane-provisioned instance is therefore permanently
locked at the claim screen even though its users and memberships exist
> - This pull request makes the gate cloud-aware: when the tenant server
token is configured, the instance is considered bootstrapped, because
the control plane owns identity and there is no operator claim step
> - The benefit is that cloud-managed instances become usable while
self-hosted behavior stays byte-for-byte identical, now pinned by a
previously missing regression test

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #2927 (introduced the browser-native first-admin bootstrap flow
this gate feeds). No existing public issue for the deadlock; inline
description per the bug report template:

- **What happened?**: an instance configured with
`PAPERCLIP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=authenticated` and
`PAPERCLIP_CLOUD_TENANT_SERVER_TOKEN` reports `bootstrapStatus:
bootstrap_pending` forever. All users — including ones created via the
trusted-header path with owner-level company membership — are locked out
at the "This Paperclip is waiting on its first admin" screen.
- **Expected behavior**: a control-plane-managed instance has no
first-admin claim step; users arriving with control-plane identity
should reach the app.
- **Steps to reproduce**:
1. Run the server with `PAPERCLIP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=authenticated` and a
`PAPERCLIP_CLOUD_TENANT_SERVER_TOKEN` set
2. Create users only through trusted cloud headers (the middleware
upserts them but never grants `instance_admin`, and purges any legacy
grants)
3. `GET /api/health` → `bootstrapStatus` stays `bootstrap_pending`; the
UI shows the claim screen for every visitor, and no supported path
exists to create the `instance_admin` the gate requires
- **Paperclip version or commit**: reproducible on `master` as of
2026-07-20; present since the cloud-tenant `instance_admin` purge
hardening landed.

## What Changed

- `server/src/middleware/auth.ts`: new exported
`isCloudManagedInstance()` predicate beside the trust middleware that
defines the tenant-token contract.
- `server/src/routes/health.ts`: the authenticated-mode first-admin gate
is skipped when the instance is cloud-managed; `bootstrapStatus` reports
`ready`.
- `server/src/__tests__/health.test.ts`: two new tests — authenticated
without the token → `bootstrap_pending` (previously untested regression
baseline), and with the token → `ready` despite zero instance admins.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run src/__tests__/health.test.ts` in `server/` — 13/13
- `pnpm vitest run src/middleware/cloud-tenant-actor.test.ts` — 6/6
- Manual: with the env vars from the repro steps set, `GET /api/health`
now returns `bootstrapStatus: "ready"`; without the token, behavior is
unchanged

## Risks

- None for self-hosted deployments: without the env var the gate is the
prior behavior, now pinned by the new regression test.
- For cloud-managed instances the claim screen and
`bootstrapInviteActive` flow no longer appear — intended; browser-based
claim was already disabled in that configuration.

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic) — model id `claude-fable-5`, via the Claude Code
CLI harness with tool use (shell, file edits, test execution). Diagnosis
and change agent-assisted, human-directed.

Devin Foley fa4f900d1a ci: label Docker images with their bundled schema migration set (#9908)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Paperclip publishes Docker images from this repo that self-hosters
and orchestration tooling deploy; the server refuses to start when its
database is missing any schema migration the build bundles
(`ensureMigrations`)
> - Anything that deploys these images therefore needs to know an
image's schema expectations *before* deploying it — today that requires
pulling the image or checking out the matching commit, both heavyweight
for tooling that just wants to answer "will this image boot against a
database migrated to N?"
> - Getting this wrong is expensive: an image ahead of the applied
schema crash-loops at startup and fails healthchecks after deployment
resources are already created
> - This pull request labels every published image with its bundled
migration set (last migration file and count), computed at build time
from `packages/db/src/migrations` in the same tree the image is built
from
> - The benefit is image/schema compatibility verification with two
cheap registry requests (manifest + config blob), no pull, and no drift
risk between label and image contents

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing public issue; inline description per the feature request
template:

- **Subsystem affected**: Docker image publishing
(`.github/workflows/docker.yml`), `packages/db` migrations
- **Problem or motivation**: deployment tooling cannot cheaply determine
which schema migrations a published image expects; the only options are
pulling the image or checking out the matching commit. Deploying an
image whose bundled migrations exceed the applied schema makes the
server refuse to start, so this check is needed *before* resources are
created.
- **Proposed solution**: OCI labels
(`io.github.paperclipai.schema.last-migration`,
`io.github.paperclipai.schema.migration-count`), computed from the
migrations directory at build time via the existing
`docker/metadata-action` step. Keys use org-based reverse-DNS (the
GitHub org) so the label contract survives product-domain migrations.
- **Alternatives considered**: a schema manifest published beside the
image (second artifact to keep in sync — rejected); encoding schema info
in tags (tags already carry semver/sha meaning — rejected).
- **Roadmap alignment**: checked `ROADMAP.md` — no overlap with planned
core work; this is build metadata only.

## What Changed

- `.github/workflows/docker.yml`: a `Compute schema migration labels`
step (`ls` + `sort` over `packages/db/src/migrations/*.sql`) feeding two
custom labels into the existing `docker/metadata-action` step.

## Verification

- Workflow YAML validated locally.
- The label-computation commands run against the current tree produce
`last=0181_decision_training_retention_policy.sql`, `count=180`.
- After merge, verify with: fetch the image config blob for a fresh
`sha-*` tag from ghcr and confirm both `io.github.paperclipai.schema.*`
labels are present.

## Risks

- Low. Labels are metadata only; no change to image contents. If the
migrations directory ever moves, the label step fails the workflow
loudly (`ls` exits non-zero) rather than publishing wrong labels.

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic) — model id `claude-fable-5`, via the Claude Code
CLI harness with tool use (shell, file edits). Change authored and
verified agent-assisted, human-directed.

Devin FoleyandClaude ce7dedf33d perf(ci): balance general-server test shards by recorded suite duration (#9516)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Its PR CI runs the general-server vitest lane pinned to
`maxWorkers=1` and sharded across 3 runners (introduced in #8360)
> - Suites were assigned to shards round-robin by sorted file index, so
shard test time was unbalanced: a recent PR run split 73s / 153s / 115s,
and the heaviest shard made "General tests (server 2/3)" the slowest
check in the whole workflow at 314s wall
> - The slowest shard sets the lane's wall time, so unbalanced
partitions waste the other two runners and stretch the PR critical path
> - This pull request replaces the round-robin assignment with a
deterministic longest-processing-time partition weighted by a checked-in
per-suite duration manifest
> - The benefit is near-even shard weights (projected 113s / 113s / 113s
with the current manifest), taking roughly 40s off the PR critical path
with no reduction in coverage

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Refs #8360 (introduced the 3-way general-server sharding this PR
rebalances)
- No public issue exists. Problem: the general-server test lane's
round-robin shard assignment ignores per-suite duration, so one shard
can carry multiple 30s+ suites while another finishes in half the time;
the slowest shard alone determines the check's wall time.

## What Changed

- `scripts/general-server-shard.mjs` (new): manifest loader and
deterministic LPT (longest-processing-time) partitioner; suites missing
from the manifest get the median recorded weight, and a missing or
malformed manifest degrades to uniform weights so the lane never fails
on stale data
- `scripts/general-server-shard-durations.json` (new): per-suite
duration manifest sampled from a real PR run (240 suites); the
`$comment` field documents how to regenerate it
- `scripts/run-vitest-stable.mjs`: both shard-selection sites (run and
`--dry-run`) now use the balanced partition instead of index round-robin
- `scripts/__tests__/run-vitest-stable-shard.test.mjs`: 6 new tests
covering skew-balance vs round-robin, determinism, median fallback for
unlisted suites, malformed-manifest degradation, manifest coverage of
the current suite set, and real-partition balance
- `server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-issue-rewake-throttle.test.ts`:
hardened the `afterEach` sweep — post-run bookkeeping (run-event
records, follow-up wake scheduling) can still insert rows briefly after
a run reaches a terminal status, and a late insert landing between the
`agent_wakeup_requests` and `agents` deletes failed teardown with a
foreign-key violation on the first CI attempt of this PR; the sweep now
retries so a late background write cannot take down the shard
- `release-verify.yml` shares the same runner script and inherits the
balancing with no workflow change

## Verification

- `node --test scripts/__tests__/run-vitest-stable-shard.test.mjs` — 9/9
pass (run against current master)
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/heartbeat-issue-rewake-throttle.test.ts`
— 6/6 pass against embedded Postgres with the hardened teardown
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/release-verify-workflow.test.mjs` — 2/2
pass
- `node scripts/run-vitest-stable.mjs --dry-run` with each shard flag
shows every suite assigned exactly once across the 3 shards, with
projected weights ~113s each

## Risks

- Low risk: partition changes which runner executes which suite, not
what runs; a completeness test asserts every suite is assigned to
exactly one shard
- The duration manifest will drift as suites are added/changed; unlisted
suites get the median weight and a coverage test flags when the manifest
covers less than half the suite set, so drift degrades balance
gracefully rather than breaking the lane

Devin FoleyandCody b49d178c46 fix(ui): experiments auto-recovery dialog leaves UI dimmed and locked after enabling (#9513)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Operators tune instance behavior through Settings → Experiments,
where experimental features are toggled on and off
> - The task graph liveness auto-recovery experiment shows a
confirmation dialog (preview of what would be recovered) before it is
enabled
> - After confirming with "Enable only" or "Enable and run", the
dialog's Radix overlay and the `pointer-events: none` body lock were
left behind, dimming the page and blocking all interaction until a
refresh
> - The dialog was unconditionally mounted and only closed inside the
mutation's `onSuccess`, so the overlay teardown depended on the mutation
outcome and could race or never happen
> - This pull request closes the dialog before the mutation fires in
both confirm flows, clears the pending preview alongside the open flag,
and mounts the dialog conditionally so its overlay fully unmounts
> - The benefit is that enabling an experiment behaves like every other
settings change: the dialog goes away, the page stays interactive, and
errors surface in the page-level error banner instead of a dead UI

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this bug; description follows the bug
report template. Refs #4587 (the PR that introduced the configurable
liveness auto-recovery controls this dialog belongs to).

**What happened?** In Settings → Experiments, toggling on "Task graph
liveness auto-recovery" and confirming via "Enable only" left the whole
UI dimmed and unclickable. The dialog content disappeared, but the modal
overlay and the `pointer-events: none` lock on `<body>` remained until a
full page refresh.

**Expected behavior:** Confirming (or dismissing) the auto-recovery
dialog should close it completely and return the page to a fully
interactive state, with the toggle reflecting the new setting.

**Steps to reproduce:**
1. Open Settings → Experiments.
2. Toggle on "Task graph liveness auto-recovery"; the confirmation
dialog with the recovery preview appears.
3. Click "Enable only".
4. The dialog content disappears but the page stays dimmed and nothing
is clickable; refreshing restores the UI and shows the setting was
applied.

**Paperclip version or commit:** master @ 634ae12 · **Deployment mode:**
local instance · **Area:** UI only
(`ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.tsx`).

## What Changed

- Added a `closeRecoveryPreview()` helper that resets both
`previewDialogOpen` and `pendingPreview` together, and used it
everywhere the dialog closes (confirm flows, run-mutation success, and
user dismissal).
- "Enable only" and "Enable and run" now close the dialog *before*
firing the mutation, so overlay teardown no longer depends on the
mutation outcome; mutation errors roll back the optimistic toggle and
surface in the existing page-level error banner.
- The `RecoveryPreviewDialog` is now conditionally mounted
(`previewDialogOpen ? <RecoveryPreviewDialog … /> : null`), guaranteeing
the Radix overlay and body pointer-events lock are fully removed when
closed.
- Added a regression test that walks the real flow — toggle on → preview
dialog appears → "Enable only" — and asserts the update payload, that
the dialog text and `[data-slot="dialog-overlay"]` element are gone, and
that the toggle reads enabled.

Credit: the implementation commit was authored by Cody — thanks! This PR
packages that fix for upstream review.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx` in
`ui/` — 17/17 tests pass, including the new regression test.
- Independently re-verified beyond the committed assertions: with a
temporary assertion (not committed), confirmed
`document.body.style.pointerEvents` is `none` while the dialog is open
and released after "Enable only" — the actual "can't interact with
anything" symptom, not just overlay DOM removal.
- Manual check: open Settings → Experiments, toggle the auto-recovery
feature, click "Enable only" — the dialog closes, the page stays
interactive, and the toggle shows enabled without a refresh.

## Risks

- Low risk: change is confined to one page component's dialog lifecycle;
no API, schema, or shared-package changes.
- Behavioral shift: the dialog now closes immediately on confirm instead
of staying open with a pending spinner until the mutation resolves.
Errors are still surfaced via the page-level error banner, and the
optimistic toggle rolls back on failure.

## Model Used

- Implementation commit authored by the AI coding agent "Cody"
(Anthropic Claude-based agent). Review, independent verification, and PR
preparation by Claude (Anthropic), model ID `claude-fable-5`, extended
thinking with tool use (code execution, test runs).

Devin Foley 49d1abc458 fix(ui): detail the env unsaved-changes banner and guard against draft loss (#9391)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Instance settings include an Environments section where operators
configure execution environments, each with an environment-variables
editor for run-time bindings
> - The editor showed a bare "Unsaved changes" banner that never said
which variables changed, sometimes appeared the moment a saved config
was opened (a lossy round-trip through the editor's emit rules made
clean values look dirty), and the environment form let you navigate away
without any confirmation, silently dropping the draft
> - Operators could not tell what was unsaved, distrusted the phantom
banner, and lost half-finished environment edits to a stray click — the
agent configuration page already confirms before discarding, so
environments behaved inconsistently
> - This pull request lists the new/edited/removed variable names under
the banner, normalizes both sides of the dirty comparison so saved
values no longer look dirty on open, and confirms before cancel, in-app
navigation, or tab unload while the form has unsaved changes
> - The benefit is that the banner is trustworthy and specific, and
unsaved environment edits can no longer be lost without an explicit
confirmation

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related (not fixed by this PR): #8930 introduced the current
environment-variables editor and its unsaved-changes banner; #9386 moved
environment create/edit from a modal to routed pages, which this PR's
navigation guard builds on.

No existing public issue for the defects themselves; described per the
bug report template:

**What happened?**

The environment-variables editor in Environments settings showed a bare
"Unsaved changes" banner with no indication of which variables changed.
For some saved configurations (names with surrounding whitespace,
incomplete secret references, duplicate names differing only by
whitespace) the banner appeared immediately on opening the edit form,
before any user input. Navigating away from the environment form —
cancel, an in-app link, or closing the tab — silently discarded the
draft with no confirmation.

**Expected behavior**

The banner should say which variables are new, edited, or removed; a
freshly opened saved configuration should show no banner; and leaving
the form with unsaved changes should require an explicit confirmation,
consistent with the agent configuration page.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Open Settings → Instance settings → Environments and edit an
environment whose saved config round-trips lossily (e.g. an env var name
stored with trailing whitespace) — the "Unsaved changes" banner appears
with no user edits.
2. Add or edit a variable — the banner gives no hint of what is unsaved.
3. With a dirty draft, click any in-app link or Cancel — the draft is
dropped with no confirmation.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted (local development instance), reproducible on `master`.

## What Changed

- The unsaved-changes banner in `EnvironmentVariablesEditor` now renders
a change summary line — `New: … · Edited: … · Removed: …` — showing up
to three names per group with a `+N more` overflow and the full list in
a `title` tooltip. A rename shows as one addition plus one removal.
- Dirty detection normalizes both the committed value and the draft
through the same rules the editor uses when emitting values (trimmed
names, incomplete secret refs dropped, last-writer-wins on trimmed
duplicates), so a saved config that round-trips lossily no longer shows
a phantom banner on first open.
- The editor exposes an `onDirtyChange` callback and warns via
`beforeunload` while its local draft is dirty.
- The environment create/edit page (`CompanyEnvironments`) tracks a
payload-level baseline fingerprint of the form as initialized and treats
the page as having unsaved changes when the current form differs from it
or the editor draft is dirty. While dirty it confirms ("Discard unsaved
environment changes?") on Cancel, intercepts same-origin in-app link
clicks, and warns on tab unload.

## Verification

- `node_modules/.bin/vitest run
ui/src/pages/CompanyEnvironments.test.tsx
ui/src/components/environment-variables-editor/EnvironmentVariablesEditor.test.tsx`
— 48 tests pass, including new coverage for: the change-summary banner
text, no phantom banner for lossy round-trip values, beforeunload only
while dirty, cancel confirmation on the edit page, and unload/link-click
warnings after edits are staged into the form.
- `tsc -b` in `ui/` passes.
- Manual: edit an environment, add/edit/remove variables, observe the
summary line; click Cancel or an in-app link and observe the
confirmation; save and observe navigation proceeds without prompting.

## Risks

- Low risk, UI-only. The click interceptor is scoped to same-origin
anchor navigation while the environment form page has unsaved changes
and is removed on cleanup; modified-key/middle-button clicks and
external links are left alone.
- The dirty-normalization intentionally ignores differences the editor
could never persist (incomplete secret refs, untrimmed duplicate names);
those were previously reported as unsaved changes that could not be
saved away.

## Model Used

- Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`, Anthropic) via Claude Code, with
extended thinking and tool use (code editing, test execution).

9cde4e128c feat: run ACP sessions in sandbox execution targets (#9390)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent adapters (Claude, Codex, Gemini) default to the ACP engine
lane, which needs a live bidirectional stdio session with the agent
process
> - Sandbox execution targets only exposed one-shot command execution,
so every ACP-capable adapter refused remote targets and fell back to the
CLI lane with a "supports only the local Paperclip host" warning
> - Running agents in sandboxes is a core deployment mode, and losing
ACP there means losing streaming updates, structured events, and
default-lane parity with local runs
> - This pull request adds a provider-agnostic process-session bridge
that relays the ACP stdio session into the sandbox over the existing
sandbox runner contract, and updates the adapters to use it
> - The benefit is that the default ACP lane now behaves the same on the
local host and in any sandbox provider, with CLI fallback reserved for
targets that genuinely cannot host a bidirectional session

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing public issue covers this; inline description following the
feature request template:

**Problem or motivation**

Configuring an ACP-capable adapter (e.g. Claude) with a sandbox
environment made every run fall back to the CLI lane with the warning
"Claude ACP currently supports only the local Paperclip host, but this
run targets a remote environment." The ACP engine only knew how to spawn
a local subprocess, while sandbox providers only expose one-shot command
execution — so there was no way to hold the bidirectional stdio session
ACP requires.

**Proposed solution**

Add a process-session bridge in `adapter-utils`: a local ACPX-spawnable
proxy script connects to a token-authenticated loopback TCP server,
which relays JSON-framed stdin/stdout/stderr events to and from a small
relay script executed inside the sandbox via the provider's ordinary
runner. Claude/Codex/Gemini adapters now treat sandbox targets with a
runner as ACP-capable, resolve agent commands against the remote target,
and fall back to CLI only when the sandbox exposes no bidirectional
path. The sandbox callback bridge injects a run-scoped API endpoint and
bridge token so the agent inside the sandbox can reach Paperclip
(including work-product handoffs) without ever receiving the host run
JWT.

**Alternatives considered**

A provider-specific lane was prototyped first: Daytona minting SSH
access metadata at lease time, converted into an SSH execution target.
It was dropped because it only worked for providers able to advertise
SSH, added per-provider surface area, and left every other sandbox
provider on the CLI fallback. The merged design rides the one-shot
runner contract all providers already implement; a regression test pins
that sandbox targets stay on the bridge lane even when lease metadata
advertises SSH access.

**Roadmap alignment**

Directly advances the "Cloud / Sandbox agents" roadmap item — agents
running in remote and sandboxed environments keep the same control-plane
behavior as local ones. No overlap with other planned core work.

## What Changed

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts`: new
`startAdapterExecutionTargetProcessSessionBridge()` plus helpers —
writes a token-authenticated local proxy script (spawnable by ACPX) and
a remote relay script synced into the sandbox, with a loopback TCP
server streaming JSON-framed stdio between them; events emitted before
the ACP client attaches are buffered so none are lost.
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/execute.ts`: the ACP engine
can execute against remote sandbox targets through the bridge instead of
requiring a local subprocess, including remote cwd/env shaping.
- `packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-callback-bridge.ts`:
sandbox-scoped API bridging extended to allow work-product handoffs; the
sandbox payload env carries a bridge token, never the host run JWT.
- `packages/adapters/claude-local`, `codex-local`, `gemini-local`
(`src/server/acp.ts`): default-lane selection no longer rejects all
remote targets; command resolution is remote-aware
(`ensureAdapterExecutionTargetCommandResolvable`,
`resolveAdapterExecutionTargetCwd`); the fallback reason is now scoped
to sandboxes that expose only one-shot execution.
- `server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target.test.ts`: pins that
sandbox targets resolve to the bridge lane, including when lease
metadata advertises SSH access.
- Non-sandbox remote targets (e.g. SSH) keep the CLI lane: the ACP
engine's remote transport is sandbox-only, so default-lane selection
falls back for those targets across all three adapters, and tests
covering CLI-specific remote behavior pin `engine: "cli"` explicitly.
- The bridge authenticates loopback connections before they can own the
session or receive buffered output (token required, idle unauthenticated
peers dropped), and remote event writes are serialized so the exit event
always lands after stdout/stderr have drained.
- Daytona plugin: formatting-only residue from the earlier iteration; no
functional change.

## Verification

- `vitest run` over the touched suites —
`packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/execute.test.ts`,
`packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target-sandbox.test.ts`,
`packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-callback-bridge.test.ts`, the three
adapter `acp.test.ts` files, and
`server/src/__tests__/environment-execution-target.test.ts` — 102 tests
pass.
- End to end: with a Claude agent configured on a Daytona sandbox
environment, the primary-model test now selects the default ACP lane (no
fallback warning), and the full round trip (wake → sandbox execution →
API bridge → comment post) was exercised twice from inside a live
sandbox.

## Risks

- Behavioral shift: adapters that previously always fell back to CLI on
sandbox targets now default to ACP there; `engine=cli` still pins the
CLI lane explicitly.
- The bridge relays stdio as JSON lines over loopback TCP guarded by a
per-session random token; the remote relay runs inside the sandbox under
the provider's runner. Providers with slow one-shot execution will see
higher session startup latency — the CLI fallback remains for genuinely
incapable targets.
- No schema or migration changes.

## Model Used

- Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`, Anthropic) — extended thinking
enabled, agentic tool use via the Claude Agent SDK harness;
implementation iterated with local Vitest verification.

0f9b1d399c fix(ui): make environment edit a routed page (#9386)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Instance settings include an Environments section where operators
configure sandbox/SSH/local execution environments, including
interactive custom-image setup sessions with a browser terminal
> - The environment create/edit form was rendered inside a modal dialog,
so pressing Escape anywhere — including inside the embedded SSH terminal
while capturing a snapshot — closed the whole modal and destroyed the
in-progress session
> - Environment editing is a heavyweight, long-lived flow; losing it to
a reflexive Escape keypress is destructive and surprising
> - This pull request converts environment create/edit from a modal into
routed standalone pages, so Escape no longer dismisses the form
> - The benefit is that terminal sessions and half-completed edits
survive Escape, and the flow gets shareable URLs and normal back/forward
navigation

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing public issue; described per the bug report template:

**What happened?**
While editing an environment's sandbox snapshot in the embedded SSH
terminal, pressing Escape (e.g. to exit a mode inside the terminal)
closed the entire environment edit modal, discarding the setup session
and any unsaved form state.

**Expected behavior**
Escape inside the terminal or form should not dismiss the environment
editor. A heavyweight flow like environment configuration should be a
standalone page where Escape behaves as expected within the focused
widget.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Open Instance settings → Environments and edit a sandbox environment
2. Start a custom image setup session and focus the browser terminal
3. Press Escape
4. The modal closes and the session context is lost

## What Changed

- Converted the environment create/edit dialog in
`CompanyEnvironments.tsx` into routed pages at
`/company/settings/instance/environments/new` and
`/company/settings/instance/environments/:environmentId/edit`
- Registered the new routes in `App.tsx` and wired breadcrumbs for the
list/create/edit states
- Form state now initializes from the route (create vs edit) instead of
dialog open/close state, and successful saves navigate back to the
environments list
- Updated `CompanyEnvironments.test.tsx` and `CompanySettings.test.tsx`
to render through a router with the new routes and assert against the
routed form page instead of a dialog

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run ui/src/pages/CompanyEnvironments.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/CompanySettings.test.tsx` — 22/22 passing
- `tsc --noEmit` on the `ui` package — clean
- Behavioral coverage: the updated tests exercise the routed create/edit
pages end to end (open edit via the list, interact with the
setup-session controls on the form page, save navigates back to the
list); with the form no longer in a dialog there is no Escape-close
handler to trigger

## Risks

- Low risk; UI-only routing change. Deep links into the old modal state
do not exist (the modal had no URL), so no redirects are needed
- The edit page resolves the environment from the route param; a
stale/unknown id falls back to the environments list

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic), model ID `claude-fable-5` (Fable 5), extended
thinking enabled, agentic tool use via Claude Code

Devin FoleyandPaperclip ac66fd65cb Fix Cody default model adapter test config (#9365)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent configuration includes adapter-specific model settings and a
built-in adapter test action so operators can verify runtime
configuration before saving changes.
> - Cody/Codex-style local adapters can use an adapter default model
when the user clears the explicit model field.
> - The adapter test path still passed an object containing `model:
undefined` in some create/edit flows, which is different from omitting
the model and can break default-model behavior.
> - The previous fix was reverted because it also included an unrelated
skill documentation edit.
> - This pull request reapplies only the UI default-model test-config
fix, with no doc or skill changes.
> - The benefit is that testing Cody/Codex adapter settings with the
default model follows the same contract as saving default model
settings: no explicit model key is sent.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Bug report:

- Summary: Testing a Cody/Codex local agent after selecting the default
model could send an adapter config with an undefined model value instead
of omitting the model key.
- Expected behavior: Clearing the model to use the adapter default
should test with `adapterConfig: {}` unless another model is explicitly
selected.
- Actual behavior: The UI test-config path could preserve `model:
undefined`, causing the adapter test to fail instead of exercising the
default model.
- Related PRs: Reapplies the UI-only portion of #9361 after #9363
reverted the original PR.

## What Changed

- Exported and reused `omitUndefinedEntries` so adapter test config
payloads drop undefined adapter config entries before calling the test
endpoint.
- Hardened the current model display value so create-mode values that
are nullish or non-string do not crash the model selector/test flow.
- Added render coverage for editing a Codex agent back to the default
model and for testing a create form with the default model.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.render.test.tsx`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- Confirmed `git diff origin/master --name-only` contains only:
  - `ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.render.test.tsx`
  - `ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.tsx`
  - `ui/src/lib/agent-config-patch.ts`

## Risks

Low risk. The change only removes `undefined` adapter config entries
from the UI adapter-test payload and adds focused render coverage.
Explicit model values and other adapter config fields are preserved.

Devin FoleyandClaude d1f6a6850a Fix agent detail URL after agent rename (#9340)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The agent detail page uses route references that can be based on an
agent's URL key.
> - Renaming an agent can change that URL key while the browser is still
on the old route.
> - After save or rollback, refetching the stale route reference can
render an "Agent not found" state even though the agent still exists.
> - This pull request redirects the detail page to the updated canonical
route when the saved agent's route reference changes.
> - The benefit is that agent renames keep users on the same
configuration workflow without landing on a stale URL.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Refs #1848
- Related public search performed for agent rename/not-found issues and
PRs; no closer in-flight PR was found.
- Bug context: after saving a renamed agent or rolling back to a
revision with a different name-derived URL key, the agent detail page
could continue using the old URL and show "Agent not found".

## What Changed

- Added a small route-sync helper that compares the previous and updated
agent route refs after mutations.
- Redirects the agent detail page with `replace: true` when a save or
rollback changes the canonical route ref.
- Removes the stale detail-query cache entry so the old route reference
is not refetched after a rename.

## Verification

- Local outgoing patch scan for common secrets, private paths/emails,
and internal issue/link references: no matches.
- `corepack pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `corepack pnpm --dir ui run typecheck`
- `corepack pnpm --dir ui exec vitest run
src/pages/AgentDetail.progress.test.ts src/App.test.tsx`
- `corepack pnpm check:token-gates`

## Risks

- Low risk: the redirect only runs when the updated agent resolves to a
different route ref than the current agent.
- If a future mutation response omits both URL key and name, the
existing route-ref fallback behavior still applies.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5 coding agent via the local Codex adapter, with
tool-assisted repository inspection, shell execution, and GitHub API
use.

Devin Foley 17dde9d3f2 fix(sandbox): keep custom-image snapshots applied to config tests, probes, and saves (#9385)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Sandbox environments can capture reusable custom images (provider
snapshots) so agents boot with pre-installed tools and CLI logins
> - The custom-image runtime fingerprint check included provider
secret-ref paths (e.g. the Daytona `apiKey`), while capture-time
fingerprinting excluded them, so any config carrying a credential never
matched its captured snapshot
> - As a result, agent config tests and environment probes silently
booted the provider base image instead of the snapshot, test sandboxes
were deleted before operators could inspect them, and any environment
save orphaned the snapshot without warning
> - The UI compounded the confusion by displaying an internal template
id that matches nothing in the provider dashboard
> - This pull request aligns runtime fingerprints with capture-time
exclusions, re-stamps fingerprints on saves that cannot affect the
snapshot (warning when they can), archives test/probe sandboxes instead
of deleting them, and surfaces the provider snapshot ref in the UI
> - The benefit is that custom images actually apply to config tests and
probes, survive unrelated config edits, and are debuggable against the
provider dashboard

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this; describing it in-PR per the bug
template. Related: Refs #9329 (saved-environment probe company context —
this branch carries an equivalent fix), Refs #8794 (introduced reusable
sandbox custom images).

**What happened?**

With a Daytona environment whose provider config stores the API key as a
secret reference and an active captured custom-image snapshot:

- Agent config tests and environment probes booted the provider base
image (`daytonaio/sandbox:0.8.0`) instead of the captured snapshot, so
CLI upgrades/logins baked into the snapshot were missing and the probe
reported "login required" and an outdated CLI.
- The environment card showed an internal template id (e.g.
`b5be03e1-ca5…`) that does not correspond to any snapshot name in the
provider dashboard, making the active image impossible to correlate.
- Test/probe sandboxes were deleted immediately after the run, so the
sandbox a test used could not be inspected afterwards.
- Saving the environment config (even fields unrelated to the image)
changed the stored fingerprint, silently detaching the snapshot with no
warning.

**Expected behavior**

Config tests and probes boot the captured snapshot when one is active;
the UI shows the provider-facing snapshot/template ref; test sandboxes
stay inspectable for a short window; unrelated config edits keep the
snapshot linked, and edits that genuinely invalidate it produce an
explicit warning.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Configure a sandbox environment on Daytona with the API key stored as
a company secret reference.
2. Capture a custom image snapshot from the environment page and mark it
active (e.g. after installing/logging into a CLI in the setup sandbox).
3. Run the agent config test or an environment probe: the sandbox boots
the base image, not the snapshot, and the sandbox is deleted immediately
after the test.
4. Save the environment config with an unrelated field change: the
snapshot silently stops applying.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at the merge-base of this branch.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted local instance (macOS, pnpm dev server) with the Daytona
sandbox provider plugin.

## What Changed

- Runtime custom-image fingerprint checks now exclude provider
secret-ref paths, matching capture-time exclusions, so configs carrying
credentials match their captured snapshots
(`environment-custom-image-runtime.ts`).
- Agent config tests and saved-environment probes force fresh,
non-reused sandboxes and pass company context so lease-backed probes can
resolve company secrets and boot the real snapshot
(`environment-probe.ts`, `routes/agents.ts`, `routes/environments.ts`).
- Test/probe sandboxes are released by archiving (stop + 60-minute
provider-side auto-delete) instead of immediate deletion, so operators
can inspect the exact sandbox a test used (Daytona plugin).
- On environment PATCH save, changes that cannot affect the captured
snapshot re-stamp the template's source fingerprint so the snapshot
stays linked; boot-source or provider-identity changes (new manifest
field `templateIdentityPaths`) mark the template detached and the save
response reports it (`environment-custom-images.ts`, shared plugin
types/validators).
- The custom-image overview exposes `activeTemplateMatchesConfig`; the
environments UI shows the provider snapshot/template ref (internal id
moved to a tooltip), warns via toast when a save detaches the snapshot,
and shows a persistent "Not in use" warning when the active template no
longer matches the saved config (`CompanyEnvironments.tsx`,
`api/environments.ts`).

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/environment-custom-images-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-probe.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/agent-test-environment-routes.test.ts` — server
coverage for fingerprint exclusions, re-stamp/detach on save, probe
company context, and fresh-sandbox test behavior.
- `pnpm vitest run
packages/plugins/sandbox-providers/daytona/src/plugin.test.ts` —
archive-on-release and snapshot ref handling.
- `pnpm vitest run ui/src/pages/CompanyEnvironments.test.tsx` — snapshot
ref display, detach toast, and "Not in use" warning.
- Manually verified end-to-end on a live self-hosted instance against
real Daytona: config test boots the captured snapshot (CLI login and
version persist), the test sandbox remains visible in the provider
dashboard as archived, and saving unrelated fields keeps the snapshot
applied.

## Risks

- Fingerprint exclusion widening: a provider credential rotation alone
no longer detaches a captured snapshot; that is the intended behavior
(the snapshot content does not depend on the credential), and
provider-identity fields (e.g. Daytona `apiUrl`) still detach via
`templateIdentityPaths`.
- Archived test sandboxes consume provider-side resources for up to
their auto-delete window instead of being freed immediately; bounded (60
minutes) and only for test/probe sandboxes.
- New optional manifest field `templateIdentityPaths` is
backward-compatible; providers that omit it keep current matching
behavior.

## Model Used

- Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`), extended thinking, agentic tool use
via Claude Code / Claude Agent SDK.

Devin FoleyandCody ebd62ca5ae Fix default model adapter test config (#9361)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The board UI lets operators create and edit agent adapter
configuration, including a primary model field and an adapter test
action.
> - For Cody and similar adapter forms, selecting the default model
means the model value is intentionally unset so the adapter can use its
default.
> - The adapter test path still allowed `model: undefined` to survive in
the generated adapter config, which could send an invalid test payload
instead of omitting the field.
> - This pull request normalizes create/edit adapter test config so
default-model selections omit `model` entirely.
> - The benefit is that testing an agent configured to use the adapter
default model exercises the same clean config shape that should be saved
and run.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue was found for this local UI bug, so the problem
is described inline.

Bug description:
- What happened: using the adapter test action after choosing the
default model could include `model: undefined` in adapter config and
surface a UI/runtime error instead of testing with the adapter default.
- Expected behavior: choosing the default model should omit the `model`
field from adapter config so the adapter default is used.
- Steps to reproduce: edit a Codex/Cody-style agent with a concrete
model, switch the model selector to Default, then run the adapter Test
action.
- Paperclip version/commit: current `master` before this PR.
- Deployment mode: board UI, deployment-mode independent.

## What Changed

- Sanitized adapter test config assembly so undefined adapter config
entries are omitted before the test request is sent.
- Made create-mode current model display resilient when the model is
unset for adapter defaults.
- Added regression coverage for editing an existing agent from a
concrete model back to Default and testing it.
- Added regression coverage for create-mode testing with an
unset/default model.
- Hardened the developer skill wording used by the existing server skill
utility contract test.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/components/AgentConfigForm.render.test.tsx`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/paperclip-skill-utils.test.ts`
- GitHub PR checks on this branch are green, including Typecheck +
Release Registry, Build, General tests, e2e, verify, security scans, and
Greptile Review.

## Risks

- Low risk: this only removes undefined values from adapter test config
payloads, which aligns with the existing persisted patch behavior.
- Low risk: default-model display now treats unset create-mode model
values as an empty string.
- No database, API schema, migration, auth, or adapter runtime contract
changes.

session. Exact context window size was not exposed by the runtime.

Devin Foley a4993a72a6 Fix live run streaming text readability (#9330)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The issue thread UI renders live agent output from adapter run logs
and transcript parsing.
> - Some adapter streams emit many small or repeated token chunks, and
live UI updates can expose partial words, duplicated slices, or
transient markdown placeholders.
> - That makes active run updates look like gibberish even when the
underlying agent output is valid.
> - The fix needs to preserve raw logs while making the live thread view
stable, readable, and ordered.
> - This pull request adds monotonic run-log sequencing, safer live
transcript dedupe/order handling, markdown placeholder hiding, and
readable live text stabilization.
> - The benefit is a live issue thread that updates smoothly without
showing confusing partial parser artifacts.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists yet, so this PR includes the bug details
inline.

### What happened?

Live run updates in the issue thread can show confusing repeated or
partial text while an adapter is streaming. The visible text appears to
lose parsing boundaries during active updates, especially with ACP-style
token deltas, so the live output can briefly render duplicated chunks,
incomplete words, or HTML-comment placeholders.

### Expected behavior

Live text should remain readable while preserving the underlying run
output for raw inspection.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Start a live agent run whose adapter emits small stdout token deltas.
2. Watch the issue thread while the run is still active.
3. Observe transient duplicated chunks, incomplete words, or markdown
placeholder artifacts in the live rendered text.

### Paperclip version or commit

Reproduced against current `master` before this PR branch.

### Deployment mode

Local dev issue-thread UI with live local adapter runs.

### Additional context

GitHub PR search for `live run streaming text markdown transcript` found
one broad merged PR, `#252` (“Dotta updates - sorry it's so large”), but
no targeted duplicate for this live streaming readability bug.

## What Changed

- Added per-run monotonic sequence numbers to persisted and live run-log
chunks.
- Dedupe and order live transcript chunks by sequence before falling
back to timestamp ordering.
- Hide markdown HTML comment placeholder text from rendered markdown
output.
- Smooth live issue-thread text updates so partial additions reveal at
readable word boundaries and sliding-window removals do not produce
gibberish.
- Added coverage for run-log ordering/deduping, markdown comment hiding,
live issue-thread stabilization, and Greptile-reviewed edge cases where
overlap rewrites could synthesize text or no-boundary additions could
stay hidden.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/lib/issue-chat-messages.test.ts src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx
src/components/transcript/useLiveRunTranscripts.test.tsx` passed before
the review fix: 3 files, 86 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/lib/issue-chat-messages.test.ts` passed after the review fix: 1
file, 30 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/lib/issue-chat-messages.test.ts
src/components/transcript/useLiveRunTranscripts.test.tsx` passed after
the final Greptile overlap fix: 2 files, 40 tests.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` passed.
- Local PII/secret scan of touched files found only expected code/test
words such as `secret`, `token`, and redaction-related strings; no
literal credentials found.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed after restoring declared dependencies with
`CI=1 pnpm install --frozen-lockfile` and running with a short `TMPDIR`
because `tsx` IPC sockets fail under the long sandbox temp path.
- `pnpm build` passed with existing Vite CSS/font/chunk warnings.
- GitHub PR checks passed on head
`4c052dfe86aecb5feb73504e6b48843f68fce813`: build, typecheck/release
registry, server and workspace test shards, serialized server suites,
e2e, canary dry run, policy, review, Socket, Superagent, Snyk, and
verify.
- Greptile review passed on head
`4c052dfe86aecb5feb73504e6b48843f68fce813` with confidence score 5/5 and
no blocking issues found.
- `pnpm test:run` failed in unrelated server workspace tests on this
macOS local environment:
- `server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-branch-containment.test.ts`:
two assertions compare `/tmp/...` with `/private/tmp/...`.
- `server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-worktree-suppression.test.ts`:
expected one heartbeat run but observed two, followed by cleanup fallout
in the full run.
- Isolated rerun of those two server suites reproduced the same three
failures.

## Risks

- Low product risk for the UI changes: the readable smoothing only
affects active live-run display stabilization, not stored comments or
raw run logs.
- Moderate verification risk: local full Vitest did not pass because of
unrelated server workspace tests. Targeted tests for this change,
typecheck, token gates, and build passed.
- Run-log sequence fields are optional for compatibility with older log
rows that do not include `seq`.

Devin Foley 05973b2073 Enable sandbox environments for Grok local adapter (#9338)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Local CLI adapters can run against Paperclip-managed execution
environments instead of only the host filesystem.
> - The environment picker and environment capability API derive sandbox
support from shared adapter capability lists.
> - The Grok Build adapter is implemented as a local CLI adapter, but it
was missing from those shared environment capability lists.
> - That made Grok agents look local-only even when sandbox environments
were configured.
> - This pull request registers `grok_local` in the shared adapter
constants and remote-managed environment support path.
> - The benefit is that Grok Build agents can select the same local,
SSH, and sandbox environment overrides as other local CLI adapters.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this bug. Inline bug report follows.

### Pre-submission checklist

- [x] I have searched existing open and closed issues and this is not a
duplicate.
- [x] I am on `master`.
- [x] I have confirmed the error originates in Paperclip itself, not in
the Grok adapter provider or local configuration.

### What happened?

When configuring a Grok Build local agent in the board UI, Paperclip did
not expose configured sandbox environments as selectable environment
overrides. The shared environment capability helper treated `grok_local`
as local-only because it was missing from the remote-managed local
adapter allowlist.

### Expected behavior

Grok Build should behave like other local CLI adapters: when
environments are enabled and a runnable sandbox environment exists, the
agent configuration form should show the environment override selector
and allow the sandbox to be selected.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Enable environments in instance experimental settings.
2. Configure at least one runnable sandbox environment.
3. Open the agent configuration form for a Grok Build local agent.
4. Observe that the sandbox environment is not offered as an override
before this fix.

### Paperclip version or commit

`master` before this PR.

### Deployment mode

Local dev (`pnpm dev`).

### Installation method

Built from source (`pnpm dev` / `pnpm build`).

### Agent adapter(s) involved

- Grok Build local adapter.
- Core bug in shared environment capability logic.

### Database mode

Not database-related.

### Access context

Board human operator.

### Relevant logs or output

No runtime error is emitted; the issue is a missing UI option caused by
shared capability metadata.

### Relevant config

No secret-bearing config required. Reproduction only needs environments
enabled and a runnable sandbox environment configured.

### Privacy checklist

- [x] I have reviewed all pasted output for PII, usernames, file paths,
API keys, tokens, company names, and redacted where necessary.

## What Changed

- Added `grok_local` to the shared built-in adapter type list.
- Added `grok_local` to the remote-managed adapter set used by
environment capability helpers.
- Added shared regression coverage for Grok local sandbox provider and
driver support.
- Added a UI render regression test that confirms Grok Build agents show
the environment override when a runnable sandbox exists.

## Verification

- `git diff --check`
- Changed-file secret scan with `rg` for common token/key patterns.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared exec vitest run
src/environment-support.test.ts`
- `pnpm --dir ui exec vitest run
src/components/AgentConfigForm.render.test.tsx`

## Risks

- Low risk. This expands environment support for an existing local
adapter to match the local CLI adapter behavior already used by Claude,
Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, Cursor, and Pi.
- Operators still need at least one configured runnable sandbox
environment before a Grok agent has a sandbox option to select.
- This PR was created from a Paperclip execution workspace branch whose
name is runtime-provided; the PR body intentionally avoids internal
issue identifiers or instance-local links.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip bc85b456a1 fix(ui): keep agent names visible on mobile agents index (#9236)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The Agents index (`ui/src/pages/Agents.tsx`) is the main roster
view, with both a list layout and an org-tree layout
> - On mobile viewports the roster could render rows with no visible
agent names because shrink-resistant trailing controls competed with the
fixed-width title cell
> - A roster where names are unreadable is unusable on phones, and the
org-tree view had a related narrow-width overflow risk for deeply
indented names
> - This pull request lets the list title flex below `xl`, hides
nonessential row controls on mobile, keeps Join/Leave reachable, and
truncates org-tree names safely
> - The result is a readable agents index on mobile while preserving
desktop meta-column alignment and truncation

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No existing public GitHub issue; describing the bug per the bug report
template:

**What happened?**

On a mobile-width viewport, the agents index showed rows where agent
names could become unreadable or disappear because trailing controls
consumed the available row width. In the org view, deeply indented names
could overflow the row.

**Expected behavior**

Agent names remain visible on every viewport, Join/Leave stays
reachable, and desktop rows continue to align and truncate as before.

**Steps to reproduce**

Open Paperclip in a browser at a narrow viewport, navigate to the Agents
index, and observe rows with long names or left-membership controls.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproducible on `master` prior to this fix.

**Deployment mode**

Local dev instance. The bug is viewport-width dependent, not
deployment-mode dependent.

## What Changed

- `EntityRow` now lets callers control title text, subtitle text, and
the meta spacer classes while keeping the default truncation behavior
unchanged.
- Agents list rows now use `flex-1 xl:flex-none xl:w-56`, so names get
mobile width while desktop meta columns keep their aligned fixed title
column.
- Long list-view names/subtitles wrap below `xl` but return to
truncation at `xl` and above.
- Join/Leave stays visible on mobile; run/status/star row controls stay
hidden on mobile to avoid squeezing names.
- Org-tree rows use `min-w-0 truncate`, so deep indentation shortens
names with an ellipsis instead of overflowing.
- Regression tests cover mobile name visibility, left-membership
dimming, responsive title/meta behavior, and mobile Join/Leave
reachability.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/components/EntityRow.test.tsx src/pages/Agents.test.tsx` — 2 files,
18 tests passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — all gates clean.
- `git diff --cached | rg -n "(AKIA|ASIA|SECRET|TOKEN|PASSWORD|PRIVATE
KEY|BEGIN RSA|BEGIN
OPENSSH|api[_-]?key|bearer|paperclip_api_key|DATABASE_URL|postgres://|sk-[A-Za-z0-9]|xox[baprs]-)"`
— no matches before push.

## Risks

- Low risk: UI-only change scoped to the agents index. The main behavior
change is that nonessential row controls remain hidden on mobile while
Join/Leave remains available there and all controls remain available on
larger screens/detail pages.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-5 via Codex (`codex_local` adapter), agentic code editing
and local/GitHub verification.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip eedc7ddef2 Make ACP the default engine for local adapters (#9238)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Adapter packages are the bridge between the control plane and local
agent harnesses such as Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI.
> - ACP support was concentrated in a separate `acpx_local` adapter,
which made ACP feel like a separate agent choice instead of an execution
capability of the harness adapters.
> - Claude, Codex, and Gemini now have ACP-capable harnesses, so the
native adapter should own ACP selection, fallback, config, transcript
parsing, and environment diagnostics.
> - The standalone ACPX adapter still needs a compatibility path for
existing rows, but it should not be offered as an active adapter for new
agents.
> - This pull request moves the shared ACP runtime into
`@paperclipai/acpx-engine`, wires Claude/Codex/Gemini local adapters to
prefer ACP when prerequisites are available, and retires `acpx_local` to
a tombstone.
> - The benefit is one adapter per harness, richer ACP transcripts by
default where possible, and a migration path for existing Claude/Codex
ACPX agents.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Closes #5932 — the broken default `acpx_local` Claude path is replaced
by native `claude_local` ACP support, existing Claude/Codex ACPX rows
migrate to native adapters, and new agents no longer choose the
standalone ACPX adapter.

Refs #4893 — original merged ACPX local adapter runtime that this PR
replaces with native per-harness ACP engines.
Refs #6590 — prior ACPX-Claude seamlessness work folded into the new
native Claude ACP path.
Refs #197 — related open generic ACP/Kiro adapter work; this PR does not
close it because Kiro/custom generic ACP remains a separate adapter
decision.
Refs #7018 — related Kimi-specific `acpx_local` shell failure; this PR
retires the built-in standalone adapter but does not add a native Kimi
adapter.
Refs #8864 — related ACPX prompt/API guidance PR; this PR moves runtime
guidance into the shared/native ACP engine path instead of the old
standalone adapter.
Refs #8881 — related `acpx_local` POSIX shell failure from the old
`acpx` pin; this PR updates ACP dependencies but does not claim
custom/OMP ACP support as a first-class native adapter.
Refs #8964 — related open `acpx_local` stderr cleanup PR; this PR makes
the old runtime path obsolete for new agents but keeps it as a
non-closing reference.

Problem description:

- The standalone `acpx_local` adapter duplicates Claude/Codex agent
choices that already have first-class local adapters.
- ACP should be an execution engine capability of each harness adapter
when the underlying harness supports ACP.
- Existing `acpx_local` agents should either migrate to native harness
adapters or fail with an explicit retirement message instead of silently
falling back to the process adapter.

## What Changed

- Added `@paperclipai/acpx-engine` as the shared ACP execution,
session-codec, CLI formatter, and UI parser package.
- Wired `claude_local`, `codex_local`, and `gemini_local` to auto-select
ACP by default when prerequisites pass, with `engine=cli` opt-out and
`engine=acp` strict mode.
- Added ACP config schema/UI fields, environment checks, session-codec
preservation, transcript parsing, and adapter capability metadata for
the native adapters.
- Retired `acpx_local` to a server tombstone, removed its
UI/package/runtime image surface, and added a migration for existing
Claude/Codex ACPX agents.
- Updated package manifests, lockfile, release tooling, docs, Kubernetes
sandbox defaults, and tests.

## Verification

- `corepack pnpm --filter @paperclipai/acpx-engine typecheck`

- `node --test scripts/bootstrap-npm-package.test.mjs
scripts/release-package-map.test.mjs
scripts/verify-release-registry-state.test.mjs`

Note: the server typecheck script calls `pnpm` internally; this dev
shell exposes pnpm through Corepack only, so I ran the two script steps
manually with `corepack pnpm`.

## Risks

- Migration changes existing `acpx_local` Claude/Codex agents to native
adapter types and clears old ACPX task sessions/runtime state.
- Custom ACP commands remain on the retired tombstone and will need a
separate future adapter/plugin path.
- ACP auto-selection depends on local Node and ACP server command
prerequisites; remote and unsupported environments fall back to CLI
unless `engine=acp` is explicit.
- `@paperclipai/acpx-engine` is a new public package and needs npm
trusted-publishing bootstrap before release automation can publish it.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip cc17f29e7e fix(timeouts): raise sandbox wall-clock backstop to 4h and make acpx_local timeouts self-describing (#9232)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent runs execute through adapters (e.g. `acpx_local`), which can
run locally, over SSH, or inside sandbox execution targets, each with a
wall-clock execution timeout
> - Sandbox-backed runs defaulted to a 30-minute wall-clock backstop
(`DEFAULT_REMOTE_SANDBOX_ADAPTER_TIMEOUT_SEC = 1800`), which kills
healthy long agent runs that are still making progress — long before the
recovery watchdog's 4h critical threshold would even consider them stuck
> - On top of that, `acpx_local` resolved its timeout directly from
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec` instead of the shared execution-target
resolver, and its timeout failures surfaced as a bare `Timed out after
Ns` — giving operators no clue which timer fired or which knob raises it
> - This pull request raises the sandbox backstop to 4h (aligned with
the recovery watchdog), routes `acpx_local` through the shared timeout
resolver, logs the effective timeout and its source at run start, and
makes every timeout error message self-describing
> - The benefit is that long-running sandbox agent runs no longer die at
30 minutes, and when a wall-clock timeout does fire, the run log states
exactly which timer fired and how to configure it

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #4535 (related: wall-clock execution timeouts killing agent runs
that are still making progress — that issue covers a different hardcoded
600s timer, but the operator pain is the same).

No exact public issue exists for this one, so describing it in-PR:

**Bug:** A long sandbox-backed `acpx_local` agent run was killed with a
bare `Timed out after 1800s` even though the agent was actively working.

- **What happened:** The run hit the 30-minute
`DEFAULT_REMOTE_SANDBOX_ADAPTER_TIMEOUT_SEC` backstop. `acpx_local`
never consulted the shared execution-target timeout resolution (it read
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec` directly, default 0), so on sandbox targets
the sandbox-provider default applied with no adapter-level say. The
resulting error named neither the timer that fired nor the knob that
controls it.
- **Expected:** Healthy long runs should not be killed by a 30-minute
wall-clock backstop when the recovery watchdog only treats runs as
critically stuck after 4h of output silence; and any timeout error
should say which timeout fired and how to raise it.
- **Impact:** Long, legitimate agent runs in sandboxes fail mid-work;
operators waste time reverse-engineering which of several timers
produced "Timed out after Ns".

## What Changed

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts`
- `DEFAULT_REMOTE_SANDBOX_ADAPTER_TIMEOUT_SEC` raised from `1_800` to
`14_400` (4h), with a comment explaining it intentionally matches the
recovery watchdog's `ACTIVE_RUN_OUTPUT_CRITICAL_THRESHOLD_MS` (4h) so
the adapter backstop never fires before the watchdog path.
Output-inactivity monitors remain the primary hang detectors.
- New `resolveAdapterExecutionTargetTimeout(target,
configuredTimeoutSec)` returns `{ timeoutSec, source }` where `source`
is `configured` / `sandbox_default` / `unlimited`. The existing
`resolveAdapterExecutionTargetTimeoutSec` is preserved as a thin
wrapper, so current callers are unaffected.
- New `formatAdapterExecutionTimeoutErrorMessage(resolution)` and
`formatAdapterExecutionTimeoutStartLogLine(resolution)` produce
self-describing messages that name the timer that fired and the
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec` knob that controls it.
- `packages/adapters/acpx-local/src/server/execute.ts`
- `buildRuntime` now resolves the wall-clock timeout through the shared
resolver: sandbox targets default to the 4h backstop, local/SSH keep the
historical "0 = no adapter timeout", and a configured
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec` always wins.
- The executor logs the effective timeout and its source at run start
(`[paperclip] Adapter execution timeout: …`), so a later timeout is
diagnosable from the run log alone.
- All three bare timeout messages (timer cancel reason, turn result
`errorMessage`, catch-path `messageOverride`) now use the
self-describing format.
- `packages/adapters/acpx-local/src/index.ts` — the adapter
configuration doc for `timeoutSec` states the sandbox default and that
the output-inactivity monitor remains the primary hang detector.
- Tests: `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target-sandbox.test.ts`
and `packages/adapters/acpx-local/src/server/execute.test.ts` (see
Verification).

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck` — passes
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-acpx-local typecheck` — passes
- `npx vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target-sandbox.test.ts
packages/adapters/acpx-local/src/server/execute.test.ts` — 2 files, 40
tests, all pass
- New/updated test coverage:
- sandbox default resolves to 4h (and the constant is asserted to be `4
* 60 * 60`)
- `resolveAdapterExecutionTargetTimeout` reports `configured` /
`sandbox_default` / `unlimited` sources with the correct precedence
(configured > sandbox default; local/SSH stay unlimited)
- exact wording of the self-describing error message and the
start-of-run log line
- `acpx_local` runtime picks up the sandbox default into `timeoutMs`,
keeps the unlimited local default, honors configured-over-default
precedence, emits the start-of-run log line, and surfaces the
self-describing `errorMessage`/cancel reason when the wall-clock timer
kills a turn

## Risks

- **Behavioral shift:** sandbox-backed adapter runs that previously hit
the 30-minute backstop now run up to 4h before the adapter kills them.
Genuinely hung runs are still caught much earlier by the adapters'
output-inactivity monitors and by the recovery watchdog; the wall-clock
timer is a last-resort kill switch. Operators who relied on the
30-minute default can restore it explicitly via
`adapterConfig.timeoutSec`.
- **Error-message consumers:** any tooling that pattern-matched the
exact `Timed out after Ns` string from `acpx_local` will see the new
self-describing message instead.
- No API or schema changes; `resolveAdapterExecutionTargetTimeoutSec`
keeps its exact signature and behavior (modulo the raised sandbox
default).

Devin FoleyandClaude e68ee09809 perf(release): batch npm registry version queries (#9202)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The release subsystem publishes the public workspace packages and
also powers release-related CI validation.
> - The release flow currently asks npm for package versions one package
at a time in multiple places.
> - That serial registry latency slows the PR Canary Dry Run path and
real release invocations even though the checks are independent.
> - This pull request batches npm registry version lookups with bounded
concurrency and reuses the result for version calculation.
> - The benefit is shorter non-build release-script time while
preserving the fresh target-version existence check before publishing.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- No public GitHub issue exists for this release-script performance
cleanup.

### Problem or motivation

Release validation spends avoidable time on repeated serial `npm view`
calls across the public package set. The slow path affects PR release
validation and real release invocations because version discovery waits
on independent registry reads one at a time.

### Proposed solution

Fetch package version maps concurrently with bounded parallelism, reuse
that map for stable/canary version calculation, and keep a fresh
parallel absence check for the target publish version.

### Alternatives considered

Keeping the existing serial shell loop is simpler, but it preserves the
CI latency cost. Caching the final target-version existence check was
rejected because release publish safety should still query npm freshly
before publishing.

### Roadmap alignment

This is a small release-tooling performance improvement. It does not
duplicate any planned core product work found in `ROADMAP.md`.

## What Changed

- Added `scripts/release-registry-versions.mjs` to fetch npm package
version maps and assert target-version absence with bounded parallelism.
- Updated `scripts/release.sh` to prefetch package versions once and to
batch the final target-version absence check.
- Updated `next_stable_version` and `next_canary_version` to use the
prefetched version map when present, with the existing per-package npm
fallback preserved.
- Added release-registry helper coverage and included it in `pnpm run
test:release-registry`.
- Hardened the release publish helper tests so their fake `pnpm`/`npm`
fixture PATH is preserved under non-login shell execution.

## Verification

- `node --test scripts/release-registry-versions.test.mjs`
- `pnpm run test:release-registry`
- `bash -n scripts/release.sh scripts/release-lib.sh`
- `git diff --check`
- Safety scan before push: searched changed files for common
key/token/password patterns and PII markers; only benign script-name
text matched (`secrets:migrate-inline-env`).
- Remote PR checks on the latest head passed, including `Typecheck +
Release Registry`, `Canary Dry Run`, build, tests, e2e, policy, security
scans, and commitperclip review.
- Greptile reviewed the latest head with Confidence Score 5/5 and no
blocking issues.

## Risks

- Low risk. The release version helpers keep their original npm fallback
when no prefetched version map is supplied.
- The existence check remains fresh and uncached before publish, but now
reports all matching package/version pairs from a parallel check.
- If npm has transient failures during the prefetch step, missing or
failed packages still map to an empty version list, matching the old
helper behavior.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip bdffd26ad3 fix(ui): pass company context to custom image setup (#9028)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Environment settings let board users configure sandbox execution
targets for agent runs
> - Sandbox custom-image setup is company-scoped because the backend
resolves provider secrets and access through company context
> - The browser UI already knows the selected company, but the
custom-image setup calls were not passing it to routes whose OpenAPI
contract includes `companyId`
> - In multi-company authenticated deployments, the backend cannot
safely infer company context and returns a `companyId query parameter is
required` error
> - This pull request passes the selected company id through the
custom-image overview, setup, rollback, and disable UI paths
> - The benefit is that custom-image setup works consistently in
multi-company instances while preserving backend company-boundary checks

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- No public issue is filed for this regression.
- Related prior work: #8911
- Bug summary: after the browser SSH terminal custom-image setup flow
shipped, opening custom-image setup in an authenticated multi-company
instance could show `companyId query parameter is required for
environment customImage setup` instead of starting the setup session.
- Expected behavior: the environment settings UI should send the
selected company context to company-scoped custom-image endpoints.
- Reproduction shape: run Paperclip in authenticated/private mode with
more than one company, open a sandbox environment's edit dialog, and use
the custom-image setup controls.

## What Changed

- Added company-id query construction for custom-image overview, setup,
rollback, and disable calls in the UI environment API wrapper.
- Passed the selected company id into the custom-image panel used by the
environment edit dialog.
- Updated the environment page tests so the regression fails if company
context is dropped again.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/pages/CompanyEnvironments.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `git diff --check`
- Also applied the same patch to a local dev checkout serving port 3100
and confirmed `/api/health` still returns `ok` after the dev watcher
reload.

## Risks

- Low risk: this only adds the selected company id to UI calls for
endpoints that already declare or require company context.
- If the selected company id is stale or invalid, the existing
server-side company access checks still reject the request.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex CLI using GPT-5, with tool-enabled repository inspection,
editing, shell command execution, and local test execution. Context
window size is not exposed in this environment.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip a328ec953a Fix inherited workspace reuse fallback (#8963)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent heartbeats provision execution workspaces before invoking
local or sandboxed adapters.
> - Some follow-up issues intentionally request `reuse_existing` so they
continue in an inherited execution workspace.
> - The heartbeat provisioning path treated missing or archived
workspace rows as if no explicit reuse request existed.
> - That could silently realize and persist a fresh project/default
workspace over an explicit inherited-workspace binding.
> - This pull request keys explicit reuse off the issue preference and
workspace id, then either restores that workspace or fails with a
structured workspace validation error.
> - The benefit is that intentional workspace inheritance remains
auditable and does not silently degrade into unrelated fallback
workspaces.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #8058
Refs #6036
Refs #2203

This fixes a narrower heartbeat provisioning bug around explicit
`reuse_existing` issue runs: if the target inherited execution workspace
is missing, archived, or fails restore, provisioning now reports the
reuse failure instead of replacing the issue's workspace binding with a
freshly realized fallback.

## What Changed

- Added explicit helpers for resolving workspace reuse requests and
deciding whether reuse should restore, refresh metadata, or keep prior
replacement-class drift visible.
- Changed heartbeat workspace provisioning so explicit `reuse_existing`
requests go through restore-or-fail behavior instead of falling back to
`realizeExecutionWorkspace` when the stored workspace row is
unavailable.
- Added structured `workspace_validation_failed` details for inherited
workspace reuse failures.
- Added regression coverage for replacement-class drift, restore errors,
missing rows, archived rows, and restore misses.

## Verification

- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk ensure-build-deps`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-session.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD`
- Scanned the branch diff and commit messages for credentials, tokens,
private URLs, PII-style values, and internal issue links before pushing;
no unsafe hits remained.

## Risks

- Explicit reuse requests whose stored workspace cannot be restored now
fail the run instead of opportunistically creating a replacement
workspace. That is intentional, but it may surface stale or archived
workspace rows as visible provisioning failures that require repair.
- Non-reuse workspace provisioning still uses the existing realization
path, so the behavior shift is scoped to issues that explicitly request
existing workspace reuse.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 85e36aaefb Show heartbeat progress in run logs (#8965)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The agent detail page is where operators inspect heartbeat runs and
watch live execution output.
> - Heartbeat runs can publish progress events while longer operations
are happening.
> - The live log viewer already appended streamed log and structured run
events, but it ignored progress events for the same run.
> - That made useful progress text invisible in the run log until
another event type arrived or the operator inspected other surfaces.
> - This pull request renders run progress events as system log lines in
the live agent run viewer.
> - The benefit is clearer live feedback during long-running heartbeat
operations without changing the backend event contract.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists, so this PR describes the issue inline
following the bug report template.

### What happened

The agent detail run log subscribed to company live events and handled
`heartbeat.run.log` plus structured `heartbeat.run.event` payloads, but
it ignored `heartbeat.run.progress` events for the active run.

### Expected behavior

When a heartbeat run emits a progress message, the active run log should
show that message immediately as operator-visible system output.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Open an agent detail page for a live heartbeat run.
2. Trigger a run operation that emits `heartbeat.run.progress` events
with a `message` and optional `phase`.
3. Watch the live log viewer.

Before this change, the progress event was ignored by the log viewer.
After this change, it appears as a system log line, prefixed by
`[phase]` when a phase is present.

### Paperclip version / deployment mode

Current `master`; local development and normal board UI deployments.

### Related work search

Searched public GitHub issues and PRs in `paperclipai/paperclip` for
`heartbeat.run.progress AgentDetail` and `run progress log viewer`; no
duplicate issue or PR was found.

## What Changed

- Added live handling for `heartbeat.run.progress` events in
`AgentDetail`'s run `LogViewer`.
- Render progress messages as `system` log lines for the matching run.
- Include the optional progress phase in the displayed line as `[phase]
message`.
- Prefer the event's `updatedAt` timestamp when provided, falling back
to the live event timestamp.
- Added a replay key for progress log lines so WebSocket reconnect
replay does not duplicate the same rendered progress line.
- Added focused formatter/key tests covering phased progress, unphased
progress, empty messages, and replay-key output.

### Visual output example

The rendered log text is covered by the new formatter test:

```text
[workspace] Syncing issue history
Preparing workspace
```

No layout or styling changes are included; this PR only makes existing
log-line UI receive one more live event type.

## Verification

- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile` — completed; emitted non-fatal
bin-link warnings for the unbuilt plugin SDK dev CLI.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/pages/AgentDetail.progress.test.ts
src/context/LiveUpdatesProvider.test.ts` — passed, 2 files / 26 tests.
- `git diff --check` — passed.
- Local sensitive-content scan over the PR diff using patterns for API
keys, tokens, secrets, passwords, auth headers, private keys,
localhost/private paths, internal ticket ids, agent links, and tailnet
markers — no findings.

## Risks

Low risk. This is a UI-only live-event handling change for an existing
event type. The replay guard is intentionally scoped to progress lines
and uses the rendered timestamp, stream, and chunk as the key, so
repeated progress events with distinct timestamps or messages still
appear.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip bcac517f3b Add browser SSH terminal for custom image setup (#8911)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Environment sandboxes already support custom image creation and
refresh through a temporary SSH setup session.
> - The existing workflow makes operators copy an SSH command into an
external terminal before they can install packages or make image
changes.
> - That extra context switch is slower, easier to get wrong, and less
integrated with the setup session Paperclip already tracks.
> - This pull request adds an embedded browser SSH terminal for custom
image setup, so operators can start working in the target sandbox
directly from the environment configuration flow.
> - The implementation uses short-lived websocket attachment tokens,
session-lifetime SSH host-key pinning, and server-managed terminal
cleanup so the feature fits the existing setup-session boundary.
> - The benefit is a smoother custom image creation and refresh
experience without asking users to leave Paperclip for routine sandbox
setup work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists.

### Subsystem affected

Cross-cutting: `server/` custom image setup APIs and websocket handling,
`ui/` environment configuration UI, and shared custom image contracts.

### Problem or motivation

Custom image creation and refresh require an operator to open a separate
SSH client, paste the command shown by Paperclip, perform setup work,
then return to the browser to finish the image flow. This is functional
but awkward for a setup process that already starts and tracks a
temporary sandbox session.

### Proposed solution

Embed an SSH terminal in the custom image setup UI. When a setup session
exposes an SSH payload, Paperclip should open a browser terminal backed
by a server-side websocket session, let the operator run setup commands
in-place, and then close the terminal when setup is finished, cancelled,
expired, or disconnected.

### Alternatives considered

- Keep the existing copy/paste SSH command workflow. This remains a
fallback, but it does not streamline the common path.
- Put SSH credentials directly into websocket URLs. This was avoided so
terminal authentication can happen in an explicit first websocket auth
frame rather than in logged URLs.
- Trust the SSH host blindly for every reconnect. This PR instead pins
the observed host-key fingerprint for the setup-session lifetime.

### Roadmap alignment

This fits the roadmap theme of making agent workspaces usable in more
remote and sandboxed environments while preserving Paperclip's
control-plane model.

### Additional context

Public GitHub search did not find a duplicate issue or PR for `custom
image terminal ssh` in `paperclipai/paperclip`.

## What Changed

- Added server-side terminal session tracking for custom image setup
sessions, including connect-token issuance, websocket attachment,
expiry, resize, input, and shutdown handling.
- Added an embedded browser terminal to the custom image creation and
refresh flow when a setup session provides SSH connection details.
- Moved terminal token authentication out of the websocket URL and into
the first websocket JSON auth frame.
- Added SSH host-key SHA-256 pinning for each terminal session and
documented the provider convention for username-embedded SSH
credentials.
- Updated the custom image environment API and UI so the setup terminal
can open, reconnect, show status, authenticate, resize, and remain
active for the setup-session lifetime once attached.
- Kept custom image setup routes company-scoped and closed active
terminal sessions on setup finish/cancel.
- Added focused unit/integration/UI coverage for token expiry,
setup-session expiry, websocket close paths, host-key pinning, and
terminal session lifecycle behavior.
- Removed the generated lockfile delta from the PR; CI owns temporary
lockfile regeneration for manifest-changing PRs.

import conflict, reran focused tests, server/UI typechecks, server/UI
builds, `pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps`, and `git diff --check`, scanned
the final diff for sensitive content, pushed `4b43558cc`, and confirmed
all remote checks plus Greptile 5/5 were green.
- PR metadata correction on July 3, 2026: changed the title/body framing
from bug-fix language to feature-request language. No source files
changed for this metadata-only update.

## Risks

- Moderate surface area because this adds websocket routing,
setup-session runtime state, package dependencies, and a new custom
image UI path.
- New websocket attachments still require valid short-lived tokens;
established terminal sessions remain bounded by setup-session expiry,
explicit finish/cancel, client close, or server shutdown.
- The terminal-session store is in-memory, so active terminal websocket
tokens and host-key pins do not survive server restarts.
- SSH host-key verification uses session-lifetime TOFU pinning because
the current provider payload does not expose a trusted host-key
fingerprint.
- The external SSH command remains important as a fallback if a browser,
proxy, or network environment cannot sustain the websocket terminal.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip c48feee190 Improve live agent feedback during sandboxed runs (#8915)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A core part of that experience is watching active agent runs without
dropping into raw logs first
> - Local and sandbox-backed adapters already record useful run output,
progress, and tool activity
> - But active issue threads could sit visually stale while the agent
was syncing workspaces, tailing sandbox output, or emitting incremental
tool-call updates
> - Operators need timely, human-readable progress while preserving the
raw transcript underneath
> - This pull request streams sandbox run-log progress into runtime
status, keeps visible issue threads refreshed, and folds repeated ACPX
tool updates into stable transcript cards
> - The benefit is that long-running agent work becomes easier to
supervise without changing the task/comment control-plane model

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this exact change.

Problem/motivation:

- During long-running sandboxed agent work, the issue UI can appear idle
even though the agent is actively syncing, running tools, or producing
incremental output.
- Operators need realtime feedback at the issue-thread layer, not only
after opening raw logs or waiting for the final heartbeat result.
- Related public context: #1808 previously added live-run status dots to
Projects; #4362 touches heartbeat wakeup behavior but is not a duplicate
of this runtime/UI feedback change.

## What Changed

- Added sandbox run-log streaming support and defaulted sandbox-capable
local adapters into the richer live-feedback path.
- Surfaced environment/sandbox sync progress through heartbeat runtime
status with bounded, redacted snippets.
- Added live issue-thread cache patching so visible active runs update
as progress events arrive.
- Folded repeated ACPX `tool_call` updates into one transcript card
instead of stacking duplicate cards.
- Updated adapter docs and added focused regression coverage for sandbox
log streaming, runtime status, ACPX parsing, live updates, transcript
rendering, and issue chat messages.

## Verification

- GitHub PR workflow on head `8397953e7b41ccd42e5d9457ee7e4dfb996e4ec5`:
`verify`, build, typecheck/release-registry, e2e, general shards,
serialized server shards, and canary dry run passed.
- Greptile Review on head `8397953e7b41ccd42e5d9457ee7e4dfb996e4ec5`:
Confidence Score 5/5, no unresolved review threads.

## Risks

- Live issue-thread cache patching could miss an edge case for a route
shape not covered by tests.
- Surfacing active-run snippets needs continued care around redaction;
this PR keeps snippets bounded and adds redaction-focused coverage.
- More frequent active-run UI refreshes could expose performance issues
on very large issue threads, though updates are scoped to visible
run/query caches.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5 via Codex, operating as a tool-enabled coding agent with
shell, git, and repository-editing capabilities. Context window size is
not exposed in this runtime.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip bf982c8c83 Normalize adapter display labels (#8913)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Adapter names are part of the board-facing agent setup and
management experience.
> - The product now treats adapters as harnesses, while execution
environments are modeled separately.
> - Several built-in adapter labels still carried legacy local wording
from the older harness-by-environment model.
> - That wording makes the UI noisier and implies a distinction users no
longer need to reason about.
> - This pull request normalizes adapter display labels while keeping
persisted adapter type identifiers unchanged.
> - The benefit is clearer adapter selection and management copy without
a database migration.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue was found for this exact cleanup.

Related public PRs:

- Supersedes #8910, an earlier branch for the same cleanup that did not
include the later docs/gateway/Cursor alignment.
- Refs #8819, which is related display-registry work for external
multi-segment adapter labels, but not a duplicate of this built-in label
cleanup.

Feature request details:

- Subsystem affected: Cross-cutting (`ui/`, `packages/adapters`, and
docs).
- Problem or motivation: user-facing adapter names include legacy local
qualifiers even though adapters map to harnesses and environments are
first-class elsewhere.
- Proposed solution: remove the legacy local wording from built-in
display labels, keep machine-readable adapter type ids unchanged, and
keep gateway disambiguation where it is useful.
- Alternatives considered: changing persisted adapter type ids was ruled
out because it would create migration and compatibility risk; one-off UI
replacements were ruled out because the display registry is already the
correct central label boundary.
- Roadmap alignment: this is small adapter UX polish, not a new
roadmap-level core feature.

## What Changed

- Updated the adapter display registry so known adapter labels are final
and no built-in local adapter renders a legacy local suffix.
- Preserved clean derived labels for unknown plugin local types while
keeping gateway disambiguation for unknown gateway types.
- Updated `AdapterManager` to prefer registry labels when the server
reports raw adapter type ids for built-ins.
- Removed legacy local wording from built-in adapter metadata labels in
UI and adapter packages.
- Aligned Cursor adapter metadata with the central display registry
label.
- Updated adapter docs and Storybook fixtures to match the new display
names.
- Added focused registry coverage for built-in labels and unknown plugin
suffix behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm check:tokens`
- `git diff --check origin/master...fix/adapter-display-labels`
- Patch-addition scan for added secrets, private paths, and internal
links: no matches.
- GitHub duplicate search for open adapter-label/local-suffix issues and
PRs; #8910 was identified as the older superseded public PR.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/adapters/adapter-display-registry.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- Stale-label scan found no remaining user-facing display-label
suffixes; remaining local wording is operational/test terminology such
as adapter ids, docs about running locally, and test descriptions.

## Risks

Low risk. The change is display-label and documentation focused, and
adapter type ids remain unchanged. The main risk is ambiguous gateway
naming, mitigated by keeping explicit gateway labels where variants need
disambiguation.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5 via Codex, tool-enabled coding agent in a local repository
workspace. Context window size is not exposed by this environment.
