Devin FoleyandPaperclip da062a3971 Dispatch scheduled work from saved deadlines
Routine and issue-monitor work can wait for a heartbeat scan even when
the app wakes before a saved deadline. Register independent deadline
workers with the existing delivery coordinator and notify them after
producer transactions settle. Preserve the interval recovery scan,
execution checks, atomic claims, and idle/standby/shutdown gates.

Parse each cron expression once per next-run search to avoid repeating
that work for every minute of a sparse schedule.

Verified focused scheduler, routine, SQL eligibility, and notification
tests, workspace typecheck, and full build. Full-suite and real local
dispatch acceptance are tracked in the PR before final readiness.

DottaandPaperclip 59a70dc9e2 fix(workspaces): expire reproducible Git files and restore exact commits (#16457)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their task workspaces.
> - Isolated Git worktrees and private repository copies remain on the
host after tasks finish.
> - These files can fill the disk even when every commit is available
upstream.
> - Cleanup must retain unique files, local Git state, live work, and
recovery data.
> - This pull request records and verifies an exact-commit restoration
recipe before expiration.
> - Normal reopening restores that commit even after upstream advances.
> - The benefit is lower host disk use while finished tasks remain
available for later work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #10285 and #2022. Follows #16433 for skill-cache expiration.
Related #11936 provides separate host-local cleanup tooling; this change
extends the existing company-scoped lifecycle worker and normal
workspace reopening. ROADMAP.md does not specify a competing
implementation.

## What Changed

- Add opt-in expiration for verified Paperclip-owned Git worktrees after
their whole task tree has been done or cancelled for 24 hours.
- Preserve active and scheduled runs, previews, pending reopening,
unresolved recovery, dirty files, unknown ignored files, and unsupported
or unique Git state.
- Verify an authenticated fetch in a fresh object store. Save repository
identity, exact commit, branch, and ownership before any deletion.
- Rename eligible files into recorded managed trash. Resume interrupted
cleanup under source and lifecycle locks.
- Expire private base clones only after consumer, file, reference,
reflog, and object checks pass. Preserve shared project base clones.
- Rebuild missing bases and worktrees through normal reopening at the
recorded commit. Return an explicit retryable error when repository
access fails.
- Add independent workspace/base switches, dry-run reports,
reclaimed-byte counts, and operational documentation. No table, public
API, UI, or recovery-retention change.

## Verification

- Real local bare remote plus Postgres: create at A, advance upstream to
B, expire the worktree and private base, reopen at A, then make and
retain a subsequent commit.
- Final lifecycle suite: all 20 tests passed in 46.41 seconds at
`d72947a2e45be5d0c912debb03c46b15863b4798`. Review fixes cover
second-cycle expiration, newer-branch recovery, normal preparation after
restoration, branch adoption, and Git administration path controls.
Eleven existing branch reconciliation controls also passed. Covers
unique files and Git state, live descendants, scheduled runs, recovery,
previews, unauthorized access, upstream failure, concurrent reopening,
interrupted deletion, shared bases, and nested private worktrees.
- Final guard regressions: 3 affected tests passed. Existing
workspace/runtime/preparation/source controls: 328 tests passed in
238.69 seconds.
- Full repository typecheck and build passed locally. The full local
test attempt did not pass: initial native-session cases hit macOS
Postgres shared-memory exhaustion, source changes invalidated two
discovery cases, and the checkout disappeared near the end. The
final-code retry of the remaining skill and unrelated controls passed
all 103 tests. All checks passed on this exact head, including
typecheck, general and serialized tests, Runner checks, build, canary
dry-run, browser E2E, and security scans. Greptile reviewed the head at
5/5 with all findings resolved.
- Fixed a blocking CI policy false positive for
`docker-compose-secrets.test.mjs`. The test still rejects GitHub secret
expressions, including dot, bracket, and multiline forms. Its full
15-test suite passes.
- Map validation and `git diff --check` passed.
- Staging dry-run inspection, measured reclamation, and ordinary product
acceptance remain pending. No live acceptance is claimed.

## Risks

- Git restoration depends on continued upstream availability and
credentials. Cleanup skips unverified commits; restoration never
substitutes the default branch.
- File deletion requires multiple conservative proofs. Unknown or
unsupported state is retained and can limit reclamation.
- Source and lifecycle locks serialize preparation, reopening, and
expiration. Remote verification has a deadline but can delay work on the
same source.
- Start with both expiration switches disabled. When enabled, dry-run
remains the default. Rollback disables further deletion while retaining
restoration support.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip cda77edc60 perf(server): stop readiness waiting on startup housekeeping (#16329)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - On restart, `/api/health` reports `starting` until startup recovery
finishes, and deploy tooling waits for `ok`
> - After heartbeat recovery, readiness also waits for housekeeping that
every scheduler tick repeats and that serving requests does not need
> - #16330 added OpenTelemetry spans for the main startup phases; native
recovery and orphan reaping are the slow ones, and both run the native
finalization reconciliation pass, which has no inner breakdown
> - This pull request stops readiness waiting on that housekeeping, and
records the phases of slow reconciliation passes as spans
> - The benefit is faster readiness on every restart, and traces that
show where a slow reconciliation pass spends its time

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Builds on #16330, which records `controller.startup.<phase>` spans.
Related to #16328.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Server readiness time after a restart, and diagnosis of slow native
recovery.

**Current behavior**
- After heartbeat recovery, readiness waits for the custom-image setup
cleanup, tool connection health (remote MCP checks), decision expiry,
the adapter and setup-token login reapers, environment lease cleanup
(provider calls) and the retention sweep. Each also runs on every
scheduler tick. On one instance they added 11–28 s to every measured
restart. A throw in any of them fails startup.
- On the same instance, native recovery took from 33 s to 11.5 min and
orphan reaping from 30 s to 4 min across restarts in one hour. Both run
the native finalization reconciliation pass. The #16330 spans time each
step as a whole, but not the phases inside that pass.

**Proposed behavior**
- The housekeeping steps run after readiness. The scheduler interval
still starts after them.
- With an OTLP endpoint, a reconciliation pass of at least one second
records a span with one child span per phase.

**Reason and benefit**
Readiness depends only on what serving requests and run recovery need.
Slow reconciliation passes become attributable to a phase in the
existing traces, without adding trace volume for the periodic pass.

**Breaking changes**
None. A failed housekeeping step no longer fails startup; it is logged
and the next step runs.

## What Changed

- `server/src/index.ts`: moves the housekeeping steps into
`runStartupHousekeeping`, which runs after readiness under
`trackHeartbeatSchedulerWork` (idle sleep and shutdown wait for it).
Each step catches and logs its own failure (`startup housekeeping step
failed`). The heartbeat scheduler interval starts when housekeeping
finishes, unless the scheduler was stopped, so the reapers still finish
before the first timer tick.
- New
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-reconciliation-timing.ts`:
records the phase boundaries of one pass. When the pass took at least
one second and an OTLP endpoint is configured, it emits a
`controller.native_reconciliation` root span
(`paperclip.native-reconciliation`) with child spans
`legacy_workspace_exports`, `obsolete_policy_reviews`,
`automatic_completion_reviews`, `candidate_scan` and `candidates`, using
the recorded start and end times. It records `scoped` and the candidate
count only. A failed pass marks the pass span and the running phase.
Tracing failures are swallowed.
- `native-finalization-reconciler.ts`: the exported function wraps the
pass in that timing and finishes it in `finally`, so failed passes are
recorded; the original error is rethrown.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: what readiness waits for, and the
housekeeping order. `doc/observability.md`: the reconciliation spans.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-reconciliation-timing.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/native-finalization-reconciler-timing.test.ts
src/startup-recovery-timing.test.ts` (in `server/`): 52 passed. New
tests:
- Readiness is `ready` while a housekeeping step hangs, and the
heartbeat interval starts only after the step settles.
- A failed housekeeping step is logged, and the scheduler still starts
after the remaining steps.
- Span timing: nothing for a fast pass or without an endpoint; a slow
pass emits the pass span and one child per phase with the recorded
times; a failed pass marks the running phase and the pass; a failing
tracer does not throw.
- The reconciler records its phases and a failed outcome when a pass
throws, and rethrows.
- Three existing startup tests settle housekeeping before they read the
scheduler interval or the setup cleanup.
- `pnpm exec vitest run src/services/native-runtime`: 4,399 passed.
- `pnpm typecheck` in `server/`: passed.

## Risks

- Housekeeping now runs concurrently with the first requests and with
`waitForExternalAdapters`. None of these steps is needed to serve
requests, and each one also runs on every scheduler tick.
- Readiness is reported earlier; the heartbeat timer starts at the same
point relative to housekeeping as before.
- The new spans exist only with an OTLP endpoint and only for passes of
at least one second.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip aec80cbc8c fix(server): keep workspace compaction out of the startup sweep (#16328)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - When the server starts, `/api/health` answers "starting" until
startup recovery finishes, and deploy tooling waits for "ok"
> - Startup recovery waits for the first sweep of the terminal-workspace
worker
> - #16304 added workspace compaction to that sweep. Compaction walks
worktrees, runs Git, and deletes dependency trees, and it re-checks
every eligible workspace after a restart
> - Compaction is never needed to serve requests, so it should not delay
readiness
> - This pull request skips compaction in the startup sweep only; later
sweeps compact as before
> - The benefit is that a compaction backlog cannot make a restart
slower

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Follow-up to #16304.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Server startup time after #16304.

**Current behavior**
`await terminalWorkspaceWorker.ready` blocks the readiness flip until
the first terminal-workspace sweep ends. That sweep compacts every
eligible workspace in its page. The per-cycle compaction memo is in
memory, so after each restart every eligible workspace is walked and
checked with Git again, and any directories found are deleted before the
sweep ends.

**Proposed behavior**
The first sweep skips compaction. Pending compactions keep their
deadlines, so the worker wakes and a later sweep compacts them.

**Reason and benefit**
Readiness depends only on work that is needed to serve requests. On one
measured instance the first sweep took 5–8 s with compaction; with a
larger backlog, compaction could add seconds per workspace.

**Breaking changes**
None. Compaction happens one sweep later after a restart.

## What Changed

- `sweepTerminalWorkspaces(limit, signal, { compact })`: `compact:
false` skips compaction for that sweep and keeps each pending compaction
deadline.
- `registerTerminalWorkspaceWork` passes `compact: false` to its first
sweep (the one readiness waits for) and `compact: true` after that.
- `server/src/index.ts` forwards the option through the logging wrapper.
- `doc/DEVELOPING.md`: the compaction section says the startup sweep
never compacts.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run src/__tests__/terminal-workspace-work.test.ts
src/__tests__/execution-workspace-compaction.test.ts
src/__tests__/workspace-compaction.test.ts` (in `server/`): 35 passed.
- New: the worker passes `compact: false` only to the startup sweep and
`compact: true` to the next one.
- New: a sweep with `compact: false` leaves the files in place, the
compaction deadline stays due, and the next sweep compacts.
- `pnpm typecheck` in `server/`: passed.

## Risks

- Low risk. After a restart, compaction runs a few seconds later than
before. Archive behavior does not change.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), 1M context, through Claude Code
with tool use (shell, file edits, test runs).

DottaandPaperclip ebceb2a744 trace(server): time workspace, native setup and startup recovery (#16330)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their work.
> - The controller prepares workspaces before it starts a Runner.
> - A slow run can spend 30–80 seconds inside the combined workspace phase.
> - Startup recovery can also delay queued work for minutes.
> - Native runs also have gaps before Runner startup and after the provider result.
> - Existing traces do not identify the awaited steps inside those intervals.
> - This change adds closed timing boundaries around the existing operations.
> - Operators can locate the wait without changing execution or exposing content.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Operator-configured OpenTelemetry diagnosis of controller preparation and startup recovery. Related: #16178, #16236 and #16285 introduced the existing preparation timing and sampling contract. #16306 and #16312 reduce separate configuration and copyback work.

**Current behavior**

The workspace interval combines source resolution, trust checks, provisioning, database persistence, binding and repository admission. Startup awaits accounting and native recovery before queued work resumes, but neither has a separate duration. Native backend setup and post-turn cleanup also contain unmeasured awaits. CPU profiles and a fast database probe cannot identify which await is slow.

**Proposed behavior**

Record workspace steps and native controller setup and cleanup with the existing hashed run ID. Record startup phases as independent, operator-sampled root spans without custom attributes. Keep the same operation order, results, failures and authorization.

**Reason and benefit**

These boundaries distinguish source work, database writes, repository admission and restart recovery. This is a diagnosis change. It does not claim a response-time improvement or a solved latency budget.

## What Changed

- Add 14 closed workspace step names around 16 existing awaits. Repeated updates and bindings produce separate spans.
- Time startup tool reviews, gateway sessions, delivery-worker readiness, accounting, plugin readiness, native recovery, hot restart, orphan reaping, retries, queued work and goal recovery.
- Time native GitHub setup, wake binding, backend construction, connector assignments, MCP discovery, tool authority, companion selection and binary resolution. Time selected post-turn GitHub, coordinator and instruction cleanup awaits.
- Move preparation timing to a pure shared module. Keep the existing heartbeat import as an alias. Both heartbeat and native timing skip tracer lookup when the endpoint is unset or blank, including when another library registered a provider.
- Tracing lookup, callback, status and end faults cannot repeat work or replace its value or error.
- Add real PostgreSQL workspace timing coverage and silent no-op/fault controls. Update the tracing contract and paired run maps.
- Keep span attributes closed. Startup spans add none; workspace steps use only the existing run hash. No commands, paths, returned records or exception messages are recorded.

## Verification

- Diagnostic-gap baseline: the new real workspace test fails against the unchanged workspace implementation because the expected step spans are absent. It passes with the wrappers.
- Final affected coverage: **804 distinct cases pass** across seven complete suites: 698 native-executor cases, 39 real PostgreSQL workspace cases, 61 timing/context/startup cases, and six execution-configuration integration cases. The final native and unit invocations pass with no selected skips. The workspace suite passed in the initial six-file invocation on the same final workspace source.
- Preserve the initial six-file attempt as failed: **7 failed and 789 passed**. All seven errors occurred during embedded PostgreSQL startup. The log reports local macOS shared-memory exhaustion. A fresh 15-case database group passes, followed by the complete 698-case native suite. These runs overlap; do not add their counts.
- The new native timing assertion fails against unchanged native code because the expected spans are absent. It passes with the wrappers and retains the credential-isolation assertions.
- Full `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed on the final production source. Earlier nullable-closure errors are fixed with erased assertions inside existing guards. The failed attempts remain recorded.
- Normalized AST comparison: removing only timing wrappers, timing imports/local handles and erased assertions restores the original workspace, startup and native executor programs. This checks call order and policy expressions; it is not live acceptance.
- The expanded head first failed two configuration integration assertions because their test providers had no endpoint. Configure the endpoint explicitly in those two tracing tests, and restore it after each test. All six cases then pass with the original credential cleanup, redaction and exact span assertions. Production is unchanged by this repair.
- The first PR head failed one unchanged attachment test at its 15-second deadline in CI. The complete 32-case attachment suite passes locally with that deadline. Do not label the failed CI attempt green. The expanded head needs fresh full CI.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs`: passed, 35 areas and 176 capability IDs. `node scripts/storybook-catalog.mjs`: 283 files and 2,728 stories. Structural checks only; no browser, play or Storybook build claim.
- `git diff --check`: passed. No added prose comments, lockfile changes or new 1,000-line crossings.
- A duplicate full local test run was not started. Fresh exact-head full CI and E2E pass on `15a683bb2419960f611584f8c07cdcfc9ce3af0b`. All 56 check runs are successful or optional skipped. Superagent and legacy Snyk pass. Completed Apex review is 5/5 on this same head, with zero unresolved review threads.

Commands:

```sh
pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server --maxWorkers=1 --fileParallelism=false server/src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts server/src/services/execution-preparation-timing.test.ts server/src/startup-recovery-timing.test.ts server/src/services/heartbeat/preparation-timing.test.ts server/src/services/heartbeat/preparation-timing-context.test.ts server/src/services/heartbeat/workspace-preparation.test.ts
pnpm -r typecheck
pnpm build
node scripts/check-maps.mjs
node scripts/storybook-catalog.mjs
```

## Risks

- Configured operators receive more spans. They still follow the configured sampler and exporter.
- Startup spans measure the awaited phase, including remaining readiness waits. They do not measure earlier worker construction or a provider turn.
- Workspace and native setup intervals overlap their containing phases. Do not add them to the parent duration. Native timing covers named awaits, not every statement or every error path.
- These spans are not yet deployed or tested against a live latency run. No first-party Telemetry event, run-log write, schema or API changes are included.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 5b29b9062e fix(server): compact finished task worktrees and shorten the reaper cooldown (#16304)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Each task can run in its own isolated Git worktree, and each
worktree installs its own dependencies
> - The terminal-workspace reaper removes a worktree only when the task
tree is finished, the delivery is merged, the files are clean, and a
7-day cooldown has passed
> - A recurring task that runs every hour keeps a week of worktrees, and
each worktree holds gigabytes of `node_modules`. A finished task with no
merged pull request, or with leftover agent files, keeps its worktree
forever
> - On a busy instance this fills the disk in days, and a larger volume
only delays the next failure
> - This pull request adds compaction: one hour after a task tree
finishes, the reaper removes regenerable directories from the worktree
and keeps the workspace, the branch, and all source changes
> - The benefit is that finished tasks stop holding gigabytes of disk,
and no work is lost because a resumed task regenerates the files when
its workspace is provisioned again

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #2022 (retention for workspace cleanup). Related: #11936 and #14608
add external reclaim scripts (a scheduled tool and a disk-guard step).
This pull request does the reclaim inside the server's
terminal-workspace reaper instead. That way it uses the reaper's
lifecycle lock, issue-tree checks, and live-run checks, and needs no
extra scheduler.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Disk retention of execution workspaces after their tasks finish.

**Current behavior**
A finished task keeps its full worktree, including installed
dependencies and build output, for at least 7 days. If the delivery is
not merged, or the worktree has uncommitted or untracked files, the
reaper never removes it. On one instance, an hourly recurring task
created about 22 worktrees per day at about 3 GB each (about 2.8 GB of
that was `node_modules`). Together with finished tasks that had no
merged pull request, they filled a 100 GB volume in about two days.

**Proposed behavior**
One hour after a task tree becomes terminal, the reaper removes
regenerable directories (installed dependencies, build output, tool
caches) from the worktree. It keeps the worktree, the branch, the
commits, and every tracked, untracked, or other ignored file. When the
task resumes, the existing reuse path runs the provision step, which
reinstalls the dependencies. Clean, merged worktrees are archived after
1 day instead of 7.

**Reason and benefit**
Most of a finished worktree's size is regenerable. Compaction removes
that part without the risk of deleting work, so it can apply to
workspaces that the reaper must keep (no merged pull request, leftover
files). The shorter cooldown limits the cost of the source checkouts
that stay.

**Breaking changes**
None. The default archive cooldown changes from 7 days to 1 day.
`PAPERCLIP_WORKSPACE_REAPER_COOLDOWN_DAYS` still overrides it.
`PAPERCLIP_WORKSPACE_COMPACTION_ENABLED=false` turns compaction off.

## What Changed

- New `server/src/services/workspace-compaction.ts`:
- Finds directories with a regenerable name (`node_modules`, `dist`,
`build`, `coverage`, `storybook-static`, `target`, `.cache`, `.next`,
`.nuxt`, `.parcel-cache`, `.svelte-kit`, `.turbo`, `.vite`).
- Keeps only the directories that the repository's own `.gitignore`
files ignore and that hold no tracked file. A negated pattern
(`!build/`), a global excludes file, and `.git/info/exclude` do not
count. Each candidate is checked per path, so dependencies below an
ignored parent (`vendor/tool/node_modules`) are found.
- Searches inside a regenerable-named directory that does not qualify
(for example a tracked `build/`), so its ignored dependencies still go.
- Never enters `.git` or `.paperclip` (the worktree instance data), and
never follows a symlink.
- Each Git read has a 60-second deadline and stops when the sweep is
aborted.
- Moves the directories into `.paperclip-compaction-trash` beside the
worktree with a same-filesystem rename, and can restore them.
- `sweepTerminalWorkspaces` compacts each terminal workspace once per
terminal cycle, after the compaction delay and before the archive
cooldown check:
- Only isolated linked Git worktrees qualify. A shared workspace, a
project's main checkout, or a row whose `.git` is a directory is never
compacted.
- The move runs inside a transaction that holds the workspace lifecycle
lock. The guard checks a fresh row and the same lifecycle generation. It
also checks that the issue tree is terminal, that no queued or running
run works on the tree or the workspace (by checkout or execution run, or
by run context), and that no runtime service runs from the workspace.
- The guard runs before the move and again after it. If the second check
fails (for example, the task reopened or a run started), the directories
move back. Otherwise the trash is deleted.
- The worker wakes at the compaction deadline, not only at the archive
deadline.
- Stale trash from an interrupted compaction or a failed delete is
purged by later sweeps. The sweep checks each worktree parent at most
every 30 minutes, whether or not anything is left to compact.
- New counters `compacted` and `compactionFailed` in the sweep result.
The activity log gets an `execution_workspace.regenerable_files_removed`
entry with the removed paths.
- Config: new `PAPERCLIP_WORKSPACE_COMPACTION_DELAY_HOURS` (default `1`)
and `PAPERCLIP_WORKSPACE_COMPACTION_ENABLED`. The default for
`PAPERCLIP_WORKSPACE_REAPER_COOLDOWN_DAYS` changes from `7` to `1`. Both
new keys are added to the run-failure diagnostics allowlists.
- Docs: `doc/DEVELOPING.md` documents the new variables and has a new
"Terminal workspace compaction" section. `doc/SPEC-implementation.md`
describes compaction.
- `execution-workspaces.ts` was already above 1,000 lines. The
file-system logic is in the new module. Only the guarded orchestration,
which uses the existing lifecycle lock and run predicates, is in the
service.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run src/__tests__/workspace-compaction.test.ts
src/__tests__/execution-workspace-compaction.test.ts` (in `server/`): 27
passed. `workspace-reaper-cooldown-config.test.ts`: passed.
- Unit tests: directory selection (ignored, untracked, regenerable name
only, `.env` and local data kept, tracked `coverage` kept, `.paperclip`
skipped, symlinks not followed), nested candidates under a source
`build/` and under an ignored `vendor/`, a negated `!build/` kept,
global and `info/exclude` rules ignored, glob characters in names,
abort, main checkout vs linked worktree, move and restore, restore that
keeps a recreated directory, and stale-trash purge.
  - Embedded Postgres tests:
- A no-PR, unmerged, dirty workspace is compacted. HEAD, the branch ref,
`git status --porcelain --untracked-files=all`, untracked notes, `.env`,
local data, and `.paperclip` data stay the same, and the row stays
active.
    - A delivered workspace inside the cooldown is compacted.
    - The delay is respected, and the worker wakes at the delay.
- An active checkout run, a queued run found through its context, an
unfinished child issue, and a running runtime service all block
compaction.
- The task reopens during the move: the files are restored and
unchanged.
    - A run starts during the move: the files are restored.
    - A shared workspace and a main checkout are never compacted.
- Compaction runs once per terminal cycle and again after a later cycle.
    - Disabled compaction does nothing.
- End to end: `realizeExecutionWorkspace` creates a worktree, the sweep
compacts it, and a second `realizeExecutionWorkspace` reuses the same
worktree. The provision command regenerates `node_modules`, and the
untracked notes and the unmerged commit are still present.
- Leftover trash is purged when the workspace has nothing left to
compact.
- Mutation checks: when the post-move guard is disabled, both race tests
fail. Without the negation fix or the repository-only source fix, their
tests fail.
- `pnpm exec vitest run` for `execution-workspaces-service.test.ts`,
`terminal-workspace-work.test.ts`, `execution-workspace-reopen.test.ts`,
`server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts`, and
`workspace-runtime.test.ts`: 335 passed. Two `workspace-runtime.test.ts`
cases fail locally with and without this change (`does not diagnose a
missing remote branch as a rejected credential`, `rejects explicit main
on a master-only remote ...`). They also fail on unmodified `master` on
the same machine, so the cause is the local Git environment.
- `pnpm typecheck` in `server/`: passed. `pnpm check:module-boundaries`:
passed.

## Risks

- A repository can keep something that is not regenerable in an ignored
`dist`, `build`, `target`, or `.cache` directory. Compaction removes it.
The fixed name list, the ignore check, and the tracked-file check limit
this. `PAPERCLIP_WORKSPACE_COMPACTION_ENABLED=false` turns compaction
off.
- A repository without a provision command does not get dependencies
back automatically. This is the same state as a new worktree for that
repository, where the agent already installs them.
- A resumed task pays for a dependency install again. This happens only
for tasks that finished more than an hour earlier.
- The shorter default cooldown removes clean, merged worktrees after 1
day instead of 7. An operator who wants the old hold can set
`PAPERCLIP_WORKSPACE_REAPER_COOLDOWN_DAYS=7`.
- Self-hosted instances get the same behavior. There is no schema
change.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), 1M context, through Claude Code
with tool use (shell, file edits, test runs). A separate Claude agent
read the reaper code during the diagnosis.

DottaandPaperclip 7c016c049b perf(workspaces): wake terminal cleanup from committed changes (#16282)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use execution workspaces to retain their files and Git
branches.
> - A reaper closes eligible workspaces after their task tree is
terminal.
> - The reaper scanned every heartbeat tick and read Git before cheap
eligibility checks.
> - Permanent scans also query idle databases when no cleanup work
exists.
> - This pull request wakes cleanup after transaction settlement and
restores bounded work at startup.
> - The benefit is fewer scans while fresh cleanup guards continue to
protect retained work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related work: Refs #13619, Refs #11753. Those PRs bound scans or back
off unchanged candidates. This PR uses the transaction work coordinator
to remove the permanent reaper tick. It overlaps their early
terminal-state filtering but does not change their runtime restart
behavior or introduce a second Git scheduler cache.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Terminal workspace cleanup and Git inspection for workspace detail
reads.

**Subsystem affected**

Server orchestration, execution workspaces, and idle sleep admission.

**Current behavior**

The heartbeat tick scans workspace candidates every thirty seconds. It
runs Git before rejecting nonterminal trees, cooldowns, and active runs.
Display inspections expire after five seconds.

**Proposed behavior**

Recover workspace rows in bounded startup pages. Wake after relevant
issue, workspace, and pull-request work-product transactions settle.
Schedule the terminal tree cooldown or a five-minute eligibility retry.
Back off unchanged candidates across unrelated wakes, and invalidate
their backoff after relevant committed changes. Park empty and
nonterminal-only lanes. Reuse display inspections for thirty seconds.
Read fresh Git before destructive cleanup.

**Reason and benefit**

Avoid recurring database and Git work when no cleanup is possible.
Retain transaction admission holds, restart recovery, and fresh deletion
checks. Retention eligibility can wait for the next host wake; active
and failed recovery work still blocks sleep.

**Breaking changes**

No schema or API shape changes. Display Git state can lag by thirty
seconds. Cleanup eligibility retries can take five minutes.

## What Changed

- Add a terminal-workspace worker to the existing transaction work
coordinator and scheduler.
- Signal relevant writes before mutation on the owning transaction.
Outer transaction settlement wakes cleanup.
- Derive cooldown deadlines from the full company-scoped terminal task
tree. Continue bounded recovery pages without a permanent sweep.
- Bound unchanged candidate inspections to five minutes, retain at most
256 entries, and invalidate affected entries with scoped transaction
hints. Repeated wakes preserve the earliest inspection deadline.
- Collect deadlines from task trees already read by bounded pages.
Restore the cursor after a failed page and rescan commits received
during a rotation.
- Check terminal state, cooldown, and active runs before Git. Preserve
lifecycle locks, generation fences, and fresh final checks.
- Keep failed or incomplete recovery visible to idle admission. Preserve
the passive retention exception.
- Extend the bounded display cache to thirty seconds and document the
scheduling and wake limits.

## Verification

- Focused workspace, coordinator, cache, and local sleep suites: 111
tests passed with real local PostgreSQL and Git worktrees where
applicable.
- Final worker, display cache, and local sleep suites: 28 tests passed.
- The regressions prove three ineligible workspaces invoke zero Git
scans, cached clean display state cannot remove new untracked files, and
real producer notifications wait for outer transaction settlement.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed locally. Map and
module-boundary checks passed.
- Work-product and sleep-safety suites: 221 tests passed. Reopen and
issue-tree control suites: 46 tests passed. Final backoff, workspace,
worker, and work-product suites: 87 tests passed.
- Final workspace and worker suites: 81 tests passed. Deadline selection
performs zero database reads. A failed full page retries its unread
terminal workspace before recovery can park.
- Full CI coverage passed on head `2c397970f7`: general tests,
serialized server suites, runner verification, E2E shards, typecheck,
build, and the final verification gate. The duplicate serial local `pnpm
test:run` was stopped after full CI coverage passed; it is not reported
as a completed local pass.
- Greptile: 5/5 with both findings resolved. The security scan also
passed. No failing or pending PR checks remain.

## Risks

- Display state can be stale for thirty seconds. Destructive guards
bypass the display cache.
- Undelivered or otherwise ineligible terminal work retries after five
minutes instead of each heartbeat tick.
- Transaction signals cover the owning `createDb` scope. Direct SQL and
independent server processes require startup recovery.
- Local cooldown timers are maintenance hints. They do not establish an
external wake alarm or whole-instance sleep safety. Existing blockers
remain in force; failed bounded recovery keeps the host awake.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6, model ID `gpt-6`, through Codex. Reasoning, repository
inspection, shell execution, and browser tools assisted the change. The
runtime does not expose the context-window size.

9cc979116e fix(server): stop reporting queries that outlive the database shutdown (#16243)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The server reports unexpected route errors to Sentry through the
shared error handler.
> - An orderly shutdown drains the HTTP listener, and then it ends the
database pool.
> - `server.close()` completes when the sockets close. A route handler
whose client disconnected, or whose socket the drain timeout closed, can
still run.
> - The next query of that handler fails with postgres.js
`CONNECTION_ENDED`, because this process ended the pool. The error
handler reports this as a 500 crash.
> - This pull request marks the pool as closing just before it ends. The
error handler then skips the error sinks for that one error code during
shutdown.
> - Public MCP calls run in their own internal Express app, so the flag
is also shared with that app.
> - The benefit is that a normal restart does not create false Sentry
crash reports. Real errors are still reported.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists. This is the bug description.

**What happened?**

A staging server restarted. During the restart, `GET
/api/companies/:companyId/heartbeat-runs` failed in the per-row run
privacy check (`canActorReadHeartbeatRun`). The error was `Failed query:
select "id" from "issues" ...`. Its cause was `write CONNECTION_ENDED
<host>:5432`. postgres.js raises this code only for a query that starts
after the process called `sql.end()`. The error handler sent the error
to Sentry as a crash.

**Expected behavior**

A query that runs after the shutdown ends the pool is an expected part
of the shutdown. The server must not report it as a crash. If the
response is still open, the server answers `503`. The server must
continue to report all other errors.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start the server, and send a slow request (for example, a large
heartbeat run list).
2. Close the client connection, or let the 5 second drain timeout close
it, while the handler still runs.
3. Send SIGTERM. The shutdown drains HTTP and ends the pool.
4. The handler's next query fails with `CONNECTION_ENDED`. Before this
change, the error goes to Sentry.

## What Changed

- `server/src/database-retry.ts`: Add `isEndedDbPoolError`. It finds the
postgres.js `CONNECTION_ENDED` code anywhere in the error `cause` chain.
`isTransientDbConnectionError` now uses the same chain walk. Its
behavior does not change.
- `server/src/index.ts`: The orderly shutdown sets
`app.locals.paperclipDatabaseClosing = true` immediately before it ends
the database pools.
- `server/src/middleware/error-handler.ts`: When the flag is set and the
error is `CONNECTION_ENDED`, the handler answers `503 { error: "Server
is shutting down" }`, or it ends the response if the headers are already
sent. It does not call Sentry or crash telemetry. This follows the
existing client-abort (`ECONNRESET`) case.
- `server/src/services/public-mcp/capabilities.ts` and
`server/src/app.ts`: `createMcpApiDispatch` takes the main app's locals.
Each per-call dispatch app reads `paperclipDatabaseClosing` through a
live getter, so a public MCP call that outlives the pool is handled the
same way (Greptile review finding).
- `server/src/__tests__/error-handler.test.ts`: Add tests for the 503
path, the headers-sent path, `CONNECTION_ENDED` outside shutdown (still
reported), and `CONNECTION_CLOSED` during shutdown (still reported).
- `server/src/__tests__/public-mcp-dispatch-shutdown.test.ts`: Send an
ended-pool error through the real MCP dispatch, both during shutdown
(503, not reported) and outside shutdown (reported).

## Verification

- `cd server && vitest run
src/__tests__/public-mcp-dispatch-shutdown.test.ts
src/__tests__/error-handler.test.ts
src/__tests__/cloud-tenant-transient-db-retry.test.ts`: 25 tests pass.
- With only the error-handler change reverted, the two new error-handler
shutdown tests fail. With only the dispatch change reverted, the MCP
shutdown test fails. The negative-control tests pass in both cases.
- I could not run the full `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm test:run`, and
`pnpm build` locally, or `public-mcp.test.ts`, which needs built
workspace packages. The sandbox has a 4 GB memory limit. CI runs the
full gates.

## Risks

- Low risk. The skip applies only to `CONNECTION_ENDED`, and only after
the shutdown starts to end the pools. postgres.js raises that code only
for a pool that this process ended. Network and database failures
(`CONNECTION_CLOSED`, `CONNECTION_DESTROYED`, and others) are still
reported.
- `CONNECTION_ENDED` outside shutdown (for example, a dedicated client
used after it ended) is still reported as a crash.
- The MCP dispatch app gets only the shutdown flag from the main app's
locals. It does not get any other locals.
- No schema, API contract, or UI change.

## Model Used

Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`) in Claude Code, with tool
use (repository inspection, shell, test execution) and the Sentry and
GitHub connectors.

DottaandPaperclip a7dd5284b5 feat: add company fast-response acknowledgements (#15748)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Human messages start agent work through task, chat, and
external-channel intake.
> - Agent startup can delay the first visible response.
> - A small direct model call can acknowledge the request while normal
work starts.
> - This response must remain separate from evidence that the agent
answered or completed work.
> - This pull request adds optional company-wide fast responses with
durable receipts, access checks, and cost accounting.
> - Users receive prompt acknowledgement without changing the agent
execution path.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: database, shared contracts, server orchestration,
connections, and UI.

**Problem or motivation**

Users can wait for an agent to start before they receive a contextual
response. Generic progress messages do not confirm what the user asked.
An acknowledgement must not falsely complete work or satisfy an
unanswered turn.

**Proposed solution**

Add a disabled-by-default experimental fast-response model using an
existing shared API connection. Generate one short acknowledgement for
each accepted human turn. Use the existing agent identity and external
publication outboxes. Retain platform provenance and account for the
inference independently.

**Alternatives considered**

Running the acknowledgement through the agent runtime adds startup
latency. Restricting implementation to OpenRouter leaves other existing
API connections unsupported. This change supports all existing API
connections and uses OpenRouter for live verification.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends existing agent communication and connection settings.
ROADMAP.md and open pull requests were checked. No duplicate
fast-response implementation was found. The maintainer supplied the
feature plan directly.

## What Changed

- Add Experimental fast responses to instance settings. Keep the feature
off by default. Enforce the flag at intake, dispatch, and publication.
- Move Decision model and Fast response setup to company Settings →
Connections when the experiment is enabled. Place Connections below
Environments. Separate the model sections with clear headings and a
divider. Keep Decision model in General when the experiment is off.
Route Costs setup links to the available settings page.
- Make the acknowledgement prompt a multiline template string. Ask for a
brief, positive response in the user’s language.

- Add settings, connection/model selection, sponsorship, fixed-sample
testing, and Costs history.
- Add a Vercel AI SDK text service for existing native, routed, Bedrock,
and local API connections.
- Add durable per-turn requests, a bounded worker, a three-second
admission deadline, and one inference attempt.
- Integrate task creation, task and agent chat, steering, queued
follow-ups, experimental board chat, shared chat intake, and email.
- Preserve receipt provenance and exclude receipts from completion,
recovery, interaction resolution, and agent wakeups.
- Recheck authorization, source validity, real replies, budgets, and
destination binding before publication. Preserve accounting for
suppressed or uncertain outcomes.
- Add provider contracts, database race tests, channel outbox tests, UI
tests, Stories, and documentation. Keep decision-model execution
unchanged.

## Verification

- Local `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and UI token gates pass after
rebase. The UI typecheck and build also pass after the final navigation
fixes. All 37 focused navigation tests pass. The first full local `pnpm
test:run` invocation reported seven chat failures. All seven passed in
isolated reruns after fixture updates and host cleanup. This invocation
was stopped after the full final-head CI suite passed.
- Initial local database tests hit macOS shared-memory exhaustion. A
diagnostic confirmed `shmget: No space left on device` with the system
limit of 32 IDs. Three abandoned, unattached PostgreSQL IPC headers were
reclaimed. The isolated rerun passed all 31 fast-response and channel
tests. The two additional Slack regression cases also passed in a
separate rerun. No active database was stopped.
- UI token gates pass. Provider contract tests cover all supported API
connection types. Fast-response tests cover uniqueness, authorization,
budgets, expiry, cancellation, restart, real-reply races, and the
experimental flag.
- The test drive verified that disabling the experiment hides
Connections and redirects its direct URL. Enabling it restores the saved
OpenRouter setup. After restart on the final commit, the OpenRouter
settings sample returned “Sure, I’ll take care of fixing the border
around the settings panel.” in 428 ms. It used 260 input and 31 output
tokens and recorded $0.0000576 in reported cost.
- Earlier live OpenRouter verification produced a receipt in 1.013
seconds for a new task. The real agent then supplied its substantive
answer. A separate settings test took 1.34 seconds, used 246 input and
23 output tokens, and recorded $0.0000361.
- Live Slack verification on final commit
`24016fa525961ebc7a4acffdc5019ce123970549` passed for a fresh initial
task and a follow-up in a disposable bot DM. The initial acknowledgement
appeared 2.405 seconds after the Slack message and 1.413 seconds after
durable acceptance; the follow-up appeared in 2.322 seconds and 1.160
seconds respectively. The recorded generation/settlement durations were
898 ms and 697 ms. The initial call used 291 input / 39 output tokens
and cost $0.00006705; the follow-up used 281 / 47 and cost $0.00007035.
- The Slack acknowledgements retained the assigned agent identity and
`origin: fast_response`, source-turn references, and no fabricated run
ID. A status snapshot after the initial receipt showed the task still
`in_progress` with its real execution run. The agent then read the CSV
fixture and correctly reported two ready items, two blockers, and their
owners. Both replies stayed in the originating DM, and no duplicate
generic working message followed the delivered contextual
acknowledgements. The `new` command started a fresh conversation session
without generating a fast response.
- An earlier eligible Slack turn generated a response but suppressed
publication. Its reported cost was retained, generic progress remained,
and the real agent completed the requested result. This is recorded
separately from the two delivered acknowledgements; the history did not
expose a precise suppression reason.
- Slack verification used real signed provider events, the existing
intake/publication paths, and a user-approved temporary webhook-only
HTTPS tunnel. Subscriptions were limited to direct-message events. The
test bot was paused and the tunnel stopped afterward. Live
channel/group-thread and GitHub journeys remain unverified; their mocked
tests cover intake, destination binding, publication, and continued
underlying work.
- Greptile reviewed final commit
`24016fa525961ebc7a4acffdc5019ce123970549` at 5/5. Both new review
findings are fixed and all threads are resolved. [Final-head CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38060015730)
passed. This includes grouped server/chat/workspace tests, serialized
suites, runner checks, browser journeys, typecheck, build, release
registry, policy, and the canary dry run.
- Manual check: enable Experimental fast responses. Open company
Settings → Connections. Select a shared API connection and model. Save
and use Test response. Submit a task message and confirm that its
receipt does not complete the task.

## Risks

- The migration adds receipt and configuration tables plus accounting
references. It uses idempotent statements and follows the current
migration sequence.
- A slow provider, authorization change, or real-agent reply can
suppress an acknowledgement. Existing progress feedback remains
available.
- Unknown provider billing retains a reservation until reconciliation.
External deliveries with uncertain outcomes must not be blindly
repeated.
- Live Slack initial-task and follow-up DM journeys pass. Live Slack
channel/group-thread and GitHub journeys remain unverified. The PR
remains a draft and records these gaps. Final-head repository CI and
automated review pass.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser interaction. The runtime does not expose an exact
model snapshot ID or context-window size; these are not asserted.

DottaandPaperclip 835a022936 perf(server): wake delivery queues from transaction-aware work signals (#15625)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI-agent work and its delivery to users and
agents.
> - Five delivery queues scan the database even when empty.
> - Each queue already has durable rows; empty polling wastes idle
hosting capacity.
> - Producers can register intent inside their existing database
transaction.
> - Central transaction tracking can wake consumers after the outer
commit without extra caller wrappers.
> - A lost response needs reconciliation against PostgreSQL before an
empty queue is safe to leave idle.
> - This change uses one scheduler for outstanding work and lets
settled, empty queues go quiet.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Supersedes the closed #15614. Related idle-safety work: #15522 and
#15599.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Delivery scheduling for feedback exports, chat completions, connection
continuations, question answers, and tool-action receipts.

**Current behavior**

Feedback scans every five seconds. Four delivery queues scan on the
heartbeat interval, normally 30 seconds. Startup and some event paths
also scan them.

**Proposed behavior**

Each producer awaits one intent registration before its queue write. The
existing `createDb` transaction boundary tracks nested savepoints and
wakes the consumer after outer settlement. Startup scans restore durable
work. Pending rows, failures, and unresolved transactions retain retry
deadlines. Empty, settled queues have no timer or recurring scan.

**Reason and benefit**

Normal delivery starts after commit. Central tracking removes
caller-specific post-commit plumbing. PostgreSQL transaction status
resolves lost responses without new tables or a permanent uncertainty
latch.

**Breaking changes**

No API or schema changes. The notification scope is one DB owner and its
dedicated child pools. Direct SQL, separate roots, and other processes
require an explicit wake/recovery integration. This path requires
PostgreSQL 14+ transaction-information functions; embedded PostgreSQL
uses 18.

## What Changed

- Add one named-deadline scheduler and app-owned coordinator for five
existing queues.
- Instrument `createDb().transaction()` centrally, including nested
savepoints. Dedicated child connections share their owner's signal
scope.
- Register work before the five queue insert paths. The first
registration obtains the outer XID; unrelated transactions issue no
extra SQL. Tool receipt insertion gains a small transaction around its
existing insert.
- Query `pg_xact_status` only for rejected, tracked transactions. Probe
before scanning the queue. Retain the idle hold while PostgreSQL still
reports an in-progress transaction or the probe fails. Release it after
settlement and reconciliation.
- Remove unconditional delivery recovery scans and caller-specific
completion post-commit actions. Retain the existing task-scoped
completion activity fast path and durable claims.
- Coalesce wakes without postponing an earlier deadline. Retry
outstanding rows and failures; suppress dispatch during idle drain while
allowing transaction and queue reconciliation; suppress both during warm
standby. Cancel deadlines and await active delivery sweeps on shutdown.
- Serialize feedback flushes. Vote routes return after saving. Uploads
have a 30-second deadline and shutdown cancellation; unfinished exports
remain recoverable.
- Document the writer contract and update the dated sleep inventory.

## Verification

- Final head: `a4609956841107ad60c4cb50fe2acb05636b1363`.
- Passed: all final-head hosted checks, with 54 successes and two
intentional skips. The full test matrix, typecheck, build, canary, and
aggregate verification passed in [run
37940948440](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37940948440).
- Passed: Greptile 5/5 on the same head, with a successful check run and
zero unresolved review threads. The branch is mergeable.
- Passed locally after the final rebase: 50 coordinator, scheduler, and
startup tests; server typecheck; server build.
- Passed locally before the final import-only rebase: repo-wide
typecheck and build; 237 PostgreSQL producer/delivery and database
signal tests; feedback, native-question, and idle-safety regression
tests.
- Real PostgreSQL tests hold transactions open after an injected client
response loss, then commit or abort. They verify that an empty scan
cannot clear an in-progress transaction. Another test terminates a real
backend and verifies recovery without replay.
- Coordinator tests cover an hour with no empty-queue timers,
pending/error retries, worker replacement, concurrent writes,
earliest-deadline preservation, rollback during idle drain, committed
work during drain, standby, and shutdown.
- Local `pnpm test:run` was started and stopped after embedded
PostgreSQL startup failures appeared. It did not finish and is not
reported as a pass. Later local database reruns had skipped suites;
those skips are not claimed as verification. The earlier PostgreSQL
tests did execute and pass, and the final hosted full matrix passed.

## Risks

- One XID query is added per transaction that registers delivery work.
Nested transactions share that ID. Registration must be awaited before
writing; new enqueue paths must follow this contract.
- Work signals are local to a DB owner and its dedicated child pools.
Independent roots, direct SQL, or other processes are not observed.
Startup scans recover already committed rows, but do not fence late
transactions from a previous process. Cross-process ownership and
database failover require separate work.
- A database outage or genuinely unresolved transaction keeps an idle
hold until status can be reconciled. No timer clears uncertainty by
assumption.
- These changes remove five empty polling loops. They do not implement
whole-instance sleep, database teardown, or an external waker. The
earliest deadline covers only the registered queues.
- Waiting tool reviews retain their existing retry cadence until their
receipts can be delivered.
- Feedback vote responses no longer wait for the remote upload. Sharing
consent and the saved vote response are unchanged.
- Real hosting-provider sleep and cost savings have not been measured.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. Used reasoning, repository inspection, code
editing, and command execution. The runtime did not expose the exact
model revision or context window.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 9b624a110e fix: checkpoint database backups before idle sleep (#15629)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip coordinates agent work and preserves company state.
> - Hosted instances can stop compute when admission and all work
sources are quiet.
> - The periodic database backup timer currently blocks every automatic
sleep.
> - Disabling backups would remove recovery points.
> - This change offers an explicit final-backup checkpoint before sleep.
> - A verified archive and restart marker preserve recovery while
compute is stopped.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An otherwise idle instance with automatic backups enabled always reports
background work. Operators cannot reclaim idle compute without disabling
those backups. The work inventory also queries the database before
checking known local blockers.

**Expected behavior**

An operator can enable checkpoint mode. The server may authorize sleep
only after all other work is quiet and a fresh backup is verified under
the same owned hold. Backups resume on restart with the existing
retention policy.

**Steps to reproduce**

Acquire a bounded idle drain on an instance with no application work and
automatic backups enabled. Read its owned idle safety report. It reports
present even when all other work is clear. With this change and
`PAPERCLIP_DB_BACKUP_IDLE_CHECKPOINT_ENABLED=1`, a successful final
backup can permit sleep; backup failures still refuse it.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced from master at 4265cb3a2b.

**Deployment mode**

Hosted single-process instances with persistent backup storage and
serialized sleep/wake operations.

Searched open backup and sleep PRs and issues. Related: #15522 and
#15599 establish owned idle holds and plugin drains. #15358 proposes
general backup health/retention validation; this change verifies only
opted-in sleep checkpoints and their restart catch-up.

## What Changed

- Add an off-by-default checkpoint flag. Keep automatic backups enabled.
- Reject known local blockers before database work.
- Finish a new backup during each owned safety check, including final
revalidation.
- Verify the complete gzip archive and sync its file and directory
before pruning older recovery points.
- Use unique checkpoint filenames so repeated checks cannot replace an
earlier verified archive.
- Keep backup work counted through dump, validation and persistence.
Changed owners, expired holds, concurrent work and errors refuse sleep.
- Persist a restart marker before the dump. Attempt a fresh backup on
restart before idle eligibility, then resume the normal timer. Only a
verified fresh backup clears the marker.
- Restrict managed checkpoint reads to verified Cloud control actors.
Tenant instance-admin elevation does not grant backup authority.
- Keep archive verification outside engine fallback so failures retain
their original cause.
- Document that recurring duplicate archives pause while asleep. The
final checkpoint and historical archives remain on persistent storage;
retention does not prune while asleep.

## Verification

- Focused idle, spool, backup and route checks: 137 tests passed,
including restoration into a separate PostgreSQL database.
- Backup library and checkpoint tests: 15 passed, including rejection
before historical backups can be pruned.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed. Follow-up server
typecheck and database build cover the verification callback.
- Review follow-up: 51 backup/restore/startup tests, 122 route/safety
tests, 32 signed-control tests, and server typecheck passed. Startup
cases exercise both flag states and retry after failure. The final
test-cleanup adjustment passes all 35 startup tests.
- The full local run hit four ancestor-directory skill-fixture failures
and one tool-route failure. All five passed from an isolated checkout at
949210 (3 targeted chat/tool checks and the complete 39-test email
suite). The redundant local run was stopped after final-head hosted CI
passed. No full local pass is claimed.
- Added-line secret/private-reference review and `git diff --check`
passed.
- [Final-head hosted
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37853380365)
passed, including typecheck, build, all general and serialized test
shards, all eight E2E shards and the canary dry run. Apex is 5/5 on
5b1de388ef, with no new findings and all review threads resolved. The
branch is conflict-free. Live staging activation awaits merge and a
canonical image; no production configuration or deployment changed.

## Risks

- The flag defaults off. This is for a single process whose host
controls every writer and preserves its backup volume across sleep.
Independent database writers require a different backup owner.
- Safety reads perform a backup only after a valid owned drain and all
other checks pass. Slow backups can outlive the caller timeout; they
remain counted until their work settles and cannot authorize sleep after
hold expiry.
- Initial and final reads each take a fresh backup. Hosts must allow
sufficient request time while retaining shutdown headroom.
- Retention settings are unchanged. Sleeping instances stop producing
duplicate hourly archives and retain their last checkpoint. Filesystem
data, encryption keys and off-provider disaster recovery remain separate
responsibilities.
- No schema migration. Disable the checkpoint flag to restore the
blanket backup blocker; automatic backups and an existing restart marker
remain active.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6. Used reasoning, repository inspection, code editing
and command execution. The runtime did not expose an exact model
revision or context-window size.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 3367b75ccc fix: fence accepted work and cleanup before idle sleep (#15522)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A host can stop an idle instance to reduce unused compute.
> - Zero active runs do not prove that requests, saved work, or cleanup
are complete.
> - A client can disconnect while its request still writes, and failed
cleanup can remain only in memory or on disk.
> - This pull request holds new admission and checks accepted work,
cleanup, and persisted work under an owned drain.
> - The host gets an empty report only while those checks remain valid.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13413. That companion PR uses the same owned-hold vocabulary for
runtime services. This PR covers HTTP requests, scheduler work,
accounting, cleanup, and the instance work inventory. It does not
include the preview gateway changes.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The instance task-drain API reports process counters. It does not prove
that a host can safely stop the instance for idle sleep.

**Current behavior**

A quiet run set can coexist with an unfinished request, cleanup after a
completed run, future work, or a failed accounting write.

**Proposed behavior**

Provide a bounded owned idle hold. Block new ingress, track accepted
handler promises, inspect durable and local work, and return `none` only
when the same hold stays quiet through the checks. Keep normal
deployment drains compatible.

**Reason and benefit**

Hosts can identify eligible idle instances without treating a disconnect
or failed cleanup write as completed work.

## What Changed

- Add `purpose: "idle"`, a bounded TTL, unique owners, and owner-checked
release to task drain. Existing holds cannot be replaced by another API
request.
- Gate HTTP ingress before parsers, auth, webhooks, and MCP. Gate new
WebSocket upgrades. Track async handlers in nested Express routers and
error middleware until they settle, even after the response or client
disconnect.
- Count accepted live-event WebSocket authentication through settlement,
even after disconnects. Count detached built-in agent, managed-home and
runtime-service startup reconciliation after readiness.
- Keep health and control mutations tracked. Count control-request
authentication separately from the read-only report, including
concurrent user/company/membership writes.
- Pause new scheduler admissions during idle holds. Count work already
in flight, including database backups, and reject scans whose work
generation changes. Periodic backups block sleep without a host wake
schedule.
- Inspect accounting and orphan-cleanup spool directories without
skipping temporary or malformed entries. Retain orphan tokens through
queue splices, flush failures, and buffer overflow. Keep failed usage
capture counted until its database failure fence is written.
- Check persisted work across companies in a bounded read-only
transaction. Include deferred agent-file cleanup and saved watchdogs
whose watched issues are complete. Enabled plugins and unsupported
retained work remain blockers.
- Require the exact idle owner and completed startup tracking before
returning an empty report. Keep reports free of tenant details.
- Document the hosting protocol, retry behavior, conservative blockers,
and the remaining external provider-stop race.

## Verification

- Current head: `8d9a599b732c2047b8c671d4799065d7c90a3567`, rebased on
master `941a3fa991aeb97eb1ac390c65b7973b5f6de1ad`. Both heartbeat helper
extractions are preserved. GitHub confirms no merge conflicts.
- Focused heartbeat renderer/run-log, drain, control-auth, admission,
route and PostgreSQL inventory checks: 234 tests passed in 10 suites
after the rebase.
- The POST task-drain contract includes the expected `409` conflict
response. The 84 OpenAPI and instance-settings route tests and server
typecheck passed after that final documentation fix.
- Final accepted-upgrade/startup regression run: 104 tests passed in
five suites, including success and failure after readiness or
disconnect. Final server typecheck also passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile` and the PR diff secret scan passed.
No dependency or lockfile changes are added by this PR.
- The prior verification covered HTTP disconnects and early responses,
async error handlers, concurrent authentication writes, signed
bootstrap, saved watchdogs, backup promises, orphan cleanup, spools and
failed accounting fences. Those tests passed.
- The last full local `pnpm test:run` stopped in the general-server
phase with 16,658 passing tests and five skill/connector fixture
failures caused by an ancestor workspace skill directory. That full
local run preceded this rebase and has not been repeated for the import
conflict. Full current-head CI passed: 53 successful checks and two
conditional skips, with no failures.
- All eight review findings are fixed and their threads resolved,
including accepted upgrade authentication, detached startup writes and
the POST conflict contract. Current-head Apex review is 5/5 with no new
findings; all eight review threads remain resolved.
- No live provider stop or production change was performed.

## Risks

- The hosting controller must use the owned protocol and hold external
admission through its final validation and provider stop. A legacy drain
cannot authorize idle sleep. During an idle hold, new requests receive
503 with `Retry-After: 1`; the host must handle queueing or retry before
enabling this path.
- This is a single-process protocol. An unexpected restart after the
last validation can race an external provider stop. The host must
serialize deploy/wake/sleep operations and bind the validation to the
instance it stops. Multiple replicas need shared fencing.
- Some retained state conservatively prevents sleep, including every
enabled plugin. This PR does not promise that every inactive instance
becomes eligible.
- The HTTP adapter uses Express 5 router layers. Real Express tests
cover nested routes, errors and disconnects. New routes must register
before tracking is installed. Detached work must have durable state or
explicit work tracking.
- Unrecoverable in-memory cleanup debt keeps the instance awake until
reconciliation. This change does not make such debt survive an unplanned
process crash. No schema migration or provider configuration change is
included.

and code execution. The exact deployment variant/model ID and context
window are not exposed in this session.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 202c2d307e fix(server): leave unclaimed warm Cloud databases idle (#15314)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work performed by AI agents.
> - Managed deployments prepare empty applications before an owner
claims them.
> - Those applications start database pollers even though no company can
have work.
> - Health probes also query SQL, so idle databases cannot remain
suspended.
> - This pull request adds an explicit standby marker for empty,
unclaimed Cloud apps.
> - The existing signed, durable claim resumes normal processing without
restarting the app.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An empty, unclaimed warm application runs recurring chat, email, plugin,
heartbeat, cleanup, and reconciliation queries. Its health route also
opens the database. This prevents idle database compute from suspending.

**Expected behavior**

An explicitly marked unclaimed application should keep its HTTP process
and sandbox provider plugins ready while leaving the database idle. A
successful signed claim should resume normal API behavior and background
processing. Claimed and self-hosted instances should keep their current
behavior.

**Steps to reproduce**

Start an empty Cloud-managed application and leave it unclaimed. Observe
database activity while repeatedly requesting `/api/health`. Before this
change, periodic queries continue without company data.

Related: #15153 reduces allocation during chat polling. This change
suppresses polling only for explicitly marked, empty, unclaimed Cloud
apps.

## What Changed

- Add `PAPERCLIP_CLOUD_WARM_STANDBY=1`. Check company emptiness once
after restoring the persisted Cloud runtime identity. Missing Cloud
configuration, existing data, or a persisted claim leaves normal
processing active.
- Gate recurring database pollers with an in-memory predicate. Keep
startup preparation and sandbox provider plugin loading intact.
- Serve unclaimed health probes without session or database reads and
report `warmStandby: true`. Serve standby pages/assets directly from the
UI router, bypassing session, bearer, tenant, and dynamic handlers.
Refuse API requests and all WebSocket upgrades before authentication can
query SQL or seed company data.
- Exit standby after the existing signed identity assertion commits.
Normal timers resume at their next tick; a restart restores the claim
even with stale provider variables.
- Document the marker, readiness semantics, rollout checks, and
rollback.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed. A final server typecheck also passed after
adding tests.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- Focused standby, signed claim, restart, health, static/Vite routing,
hostname, HMR, and live-events suites: 72 passed after the review fixes.
Includes real HTTP upgrade admission before/after claim.
- `pnpm test:run` was attempted locally; both superseded runs were
stopped after encountering checkout/platform failures. A clean-checkout
rerun eliminated ancestor skill-directory lookup failures. The
company-skills/runtime-cache families encounter macOS
read-only-directory rename failures (`EACCES`); all three company-skills
failures reproduce on unmodified base `bf14f803d5`. The initial full run
also reported one native runner API test failure; an isolated comparison
on both revisions was blocked by local embedded PostgreSQL startup
failures. The full [Linux CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37423263993)
passed on final commit `5016c415ea`, including all server and workspace
test shards, browser suites, typecheck, build, and release canary. This
is not a claim that the full local suite passed.
- Isolated full server with local PostgreSQL: after startup and
connection expiry, 70 health probes, 70 page requests carrying valid
synthetic tenant credentials, and 70 rejected WebSocket upgrades over 70
seconds observed zero app database connections. The signed claim
completed in 62 ms and normal polling resumed (475 database transactions
over 12 seconds). Restart with stale provider variables restored the
durable claim. The latency is local-only, not a provider wake
measurement.
- Apex review: **5/5** on `5016c415ea`, both earlier threads resolved,
no open recommendations.
- No live-provider test or production deployment was performed. An
actual database suspension/resume canary remains required before
enabling the control-plane switch.

## Risks

- Standby health reports HTTP readiness rather than current database
connectivity. The signed claim still requires a durable database write;
claimed health checks retain the SQL probe and 503 failure behavior.
- Pollers resume at their usual intervals. A suspended database may add
claim latency. Validate the real provider before enabling the marker.
- Startup preparation and sandbox plugins remain loaded. New plugins or
background loops must respect the same standby contract.
- The marker is off by default. Remove it or set it to `0` and restart
to roll back. No schema migration or claimed-workspace inactivity policy
changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The exact serving snapshot and configured
context-window size are not exposed in this session. Assistance included
source review, TypeScript changes, command execution, and PostgreSQL
tests.

cad26c6bfb fix(tool-gateway): bound MCP discovery memory and concurrency (#14864)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents discover governed tools through the MCP gateway.
> - A listing repeated policy and full run-row reads for each catalog
tool.
> - Parallel listings multiplied those allocations during run startup.
> - One 900-tool baseline listing used 11,489 queries and about 1.7 GiB
of extra heap in a fixture.
> - This pull request shares reads within a listing and bounds whole
listings across the process.
> - The benefit is lower discovery memory use while execution still
checks current policy.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13115. Its on-demand target change affects the same listing loop.

**What happened?**

MCP discovery repeated roughly 13 reads per tool. Full run snapshots and
repeated connection configurations caused large allocations. Per-listing
bounds alone did not limit concurrent listings across gateways.

**Expected behavior**

Discovery reads shared inputs once per listing. The process bounds
active and queued listings. Catalog payload size and policy evaluation
still grow with the catalog. Tool execution checks current access rules.

**Steps to reproduce**

Create a company with a remote MCP connection, 900 catalog tools, large
schemas, and a large run snapshot. Send concurrent tools/list requests
using a run-bound gateway token. Run the committed benchmark for a
deterministic reproduction.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Baseline: f2e0f19630. Measured on Node
26.4.0 on macOS.

## What Changed

- Keep Michael Nguyen's per-listing policy cache, scalar policy reads,
16-decision bound, and catalog/connection split under repeatable read.
- Admit two whole listings per process and queue at most 32. Return 503
with tool_discovery_busy when full.
- Propagate disconnects to discovery. Stop scheduling new reads and
drain started reads before freeing the slot.
- Project context IDs in gateway authentication and GitHub runtime
discovery. Avoid loading task descriptions and results.
- Keep discovery audit counts and a SHA-256 digest instead of the full
name list. Retain access and activity audit records.
- Sweep expired named gateway tokens at startup and on the existing
scheduler. Delete at most 500 per pass. Add an idempotent expiry-index
migration. Resolve audit token references atomically so cleanup cannot
break admitted requests.
- Return GET 405 with Allow: POST on stateless MCP gateway and
runtime-tools endpoints. Keep runtime-tools authentication.
- Add red-green regressions, HTTP concurrency and policy-revocation
coverage, and browser approval assertions.
- Commit the benchmark harness, raw results, and resource-bound
documentation.

## Verification

- Baseline listing regressions failed with 722 queries for 50 tools and
6,422 for 500. The connection-row duplication regression also failed.
- Follow-up regressions failed before the fixes for full snapshot reads,
abandoned listings, full name-list audits, and expired tokens.
- Listing and scheduler tests: 14 pass. Existing gateway/policy suites
passed after preserving the cleanup return contract.
- Two HTTP journeys pass: initialize, GET/SSE rejection, 16 concurrent
500-tool listings, provider call, policy revocation, and denied retry.
Token cleanup during provider dispatch also completes successfully and
blocks subsequent requests.
- pnpm test:e2e tests/e2e/mcp-user-stories.spec.ts --grep
'@mcp-runnable': 8 pass. The approval journey clicks Allow once in the
browser. Review screenshots wait for loaded content.
- pnpm -r typecheck: passes. pnpm build: passes.
- The general server group completed with 14,755 passes and 18 failures.
The 17 startup mock failures were fixed; all 21 startup tests pass on
rerun. The one Discord timing failure passed on the unchanged baseline
and on rerun (74 tests). UI and CLI groups pass 7,632 tests. Shared and
skill groups pass 853 tests. The remaining database and adapter groups
pass 3,010 tests with one worker after a macOS shared-memory limit
interrupted a parallel run. All 149 serialized route files pass (2,762
tests).
- At 900 tools, one listing falls from 11,489 to 36 queries and from
about 1.7 GiB to 37 MiB of extra heap. Sixteen concurrent listings used
169–187 MiB of extra heap. Four connections used 39 queries per listing.
- Latest-head verification: 54 successful checks and two expected skips
on 5c0793090c. Fresh Greptile review: 5/5
with no unresolved threads.
- Reproduce with server/scripts/benchmark-tool-gateway-listing.ts. See
doc/mcp-discovery-performance.md and
doc/benchmarks/2026-10-01-mcp-discovery.json.

## Risks

- The process-wide FIFO queue can increase discovery latency. Excess
callers must retry 503 responses.
- Cancellation applies to discovery. Started database reads finish
before their slot is released.
- Audit consumers must use visibleToolCount and visibleToolsHash instead
of visibleTools.
- The expiry index can briefly lock the token table during migration.
Sweeps preserve unexpired and non-expiring tokens.
- Measurements use isolated fixtures and deterministic providers. They
do not establish a production heap limit or affected installation count.
Rate-limit reads remain uncached.

## Model Used

- Original listing optimization: Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5
(claude-opus-5-5), Claude Code, extended thinking and tool use, as
recorded by the original author.
- Follow-up fixes and verification: OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with shell
execution, file edits, database fixtures, and browser tests. The exact
serving model ID and context window are not exposed in this session.

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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

**What happened?**

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

**Expected behavior**

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

**Steps to reproduce**

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

**Paperclip version or commit**

master at e2f1a66aa7 (2026-09-25).

**Deployment mode**

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

  src/__tests__/attention-service.test.ts                                    # 226 passed
npx tsc --noEmit -p tsconfig.json                                           # clean
```

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

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

Nicky LeachandPaperclip c276d3fdc3 feat(observability): report terminal run failures to Sentry (#13446)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The server records the state of each agent run.
> - Terminal run failures need clear error tracking for operators.
> - The server did not report terminal `failed` or `timed_out`
transitions to Sentry.
> - This pull request reports each genuine terminal failure transition
with safe diagnostic data.
> - The benefit is faster diagnosis without changing run control flow or
exposing credentials.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The server wrote terminal run failures but did not report them to
Sentry. Operators could not see these failures in error tracking.

**Expected behavior**

The server should report each genuine transition to `failed` or
`timed_out` to Sentry.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run an agent task that reaches a terminal failure state.
2. Inspect the Sentry events for the server.
3. Observe that the terminal run failure has no matching Sentry event.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The change targets the current `master` branch.

No public GitHub issue or pull request covers this change.

## What Changed

- Add `captureRunFailure()` as a fail-open Sentry entry point.
- Add `reportRunFailure()` to filter status, resolve the adapter, redact
text, and report the failure.
- Call `reportRunFailure()` beside each of the eight terminal status
writers.
- Report six diagnostic values: the instance host, task identifier, run
identifier, error message, error code, and agent adapter.
- Group events by error code and agent adapter while keeping the
redacted message in the event.
- Report only genuine transitions and avoid duplicate finalization
events.
- Keep Sentry failures outside run control flow.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/services/__tests__/run-failure-report.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/run-failure-sentry.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/native-session-resumption.test.ts`
- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/services/execution-control-reconciliation.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- The full continuous-integration suite must run on this pull request.

## Risks

- The report path can add diagnostic events when Sentry is configured.
- The report path returns without action when Sentry is not configured.
- Redaction runs before length limits and before the event leaves the
process.
- The change has no migration and no schema change.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, tool use and code review support. The exact context
window and reasoning configuration are not exposed by the runtime.

DottaandPaperclip 728f7185f6 feat: add native in-app announcements with persistent dismissal (#13403)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Self-hosted boards need a way to show occasional product
announcements.
> - An app release should not be required to publish or withdraw a card.
> - Native card controls keep publishing consistent; the hero can use a
static image or isolated HTML/CSS animation.
> - This pull request renders a validated JSON feed with native
components.
> - It stores dismissals per account on each instance, so a closed card
stays closed across companies and browsers.
> - Named staging feeds let authors test content before production
publication.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Board application shell, announcement delivery, and user preferences.

**Problem or motivation**

Operators need a small, optional announcement card. Users need reliable
dismissal state. Authors need to test remote content without changing
the production feed.

**Proposed solution**

Add one non-modal AnnouncementWell. Fetch validated JSON and
content-addressed media through the instance server. Keep card controls
native, with optional sandboxed HTML/CSS animation in the hero. Use
stable announcement IDs for dismissal, an explicit empty manifest and
quiet 404 handling. Provide a staged publishing helper and isolated
test-drive guide.

**Alternatives considered**

Hosting the entire card as a page would move navigation and dismissal
into remote content. This change limits HTML to a scriptless, isolated
visual hero and keeps controls native. Browser-only storage would lose
dismissals across browsers, so the instance stores account preferences.

**Roadmap alignment**

ROADMAP.md has no overlapping announcement feature. A GitHub title
search found no related announcement pull requests. This work implements
a maintainer-requested feature.

## What Changed

- Add shared feed types, strict validation of every object, supported
routes, expiration and version checks.
- Add a board-only current-feed API, constrained media proxy, and
idempotent dismissal API. Store the first dismissal and its company
audit entry in one transaction.
- Cache upstream data for one hour. Use conditional requests, request
deduplication, response limits, public destination checks, and a
three-second deadline. Treat a remote 404 as an empty feed with a
fifteen-minute retry cooldown.
- Keep announcement visibility stable when focus moves to browser chrome
or another app pane; only tab visibility starts a return check.
- Add a responsive native announcement card. Respect onboarding, dialogs
and toast placement. Sync pending dismissals across tabs and retry after
reconnect or return.
- Add idempotent migrations for dismissals and validated publication
IDs, design-guide examples, static and animated Storybook examples, and
focused tests. The publication registry supports offline retries without
accepting caller-invented IDs.
- Add HTML/CSS animated heroes with static posters, automatic playback,
reduced-motion handling, strict DOMPurify validation, an empty iframe
sandbox and CSP that blocks scripts/network resources.
- Add validated staging publication, content-addressed assets, an empty
production manifest, preview fixtures, and authoring/operator
documentation.

## Verification

- The preceding implementation passed 98 targeted
shared/server/publisher/route/OpenAPI/UI tests and 127 tests including
the master rebase. The playback-control removal passes all 21
announcement UI tests, covering the rendered sandbox, fallback, reduced
motion, dismissal and slow/stale state lookups. The preceding
shared/server tests cover HTML validation and response sandbox headers.
- The playback-control removal passes UI typecheck, production UI build,
Storybook build and token gates locally. Browser verification confirms
the animated card has only its dismiss button and two links, with no
page errors. The full canonical CI matrix passed on current head
`00e416431edb610861599d50490270bbd0f3c6b6`: 32 successful checks and two
optional Storybook deployment checks skipped. This run needed no
retries. Greptile reviewed this same head at 5/5 with no outstanding
findings.
- The local canonical general-server run passed 12,063 tests before
reporting embedded-PostgreSQL startup failures in an unrelated fixture.
All 31 tests in that fixture passed across isolated retries. The UI
group passed 6,219 tests and other workspace groups passed 3,201; two
CLI database-startup failures also passed individually. Serialized
server suites were verified by the full CI matrix rather than repeating
them locally. No source changes were needed for these environment
failures.
- The real S3/CloudFront staging manifest and both media asset headers
were verified. Production remains empty/unpublished. The guide
distinguishes the preview host's disabled edge cache from production
cache requirements.
- In the isolated test-drive, the animation visibly moves without
playback controls. A 390×844 browser viewport keeps the card above
navigation. Reduced motion makes no animation request. Both themes
render correctly and browser page errors are empty. Browser fault
injection verified that scripts cannot execute and CSS cannot make
network requests; a missing animation leaves its poster and controls.
- Refresh leaves the animated card visible. Closing it persists after
reload and the API returns null. Earlier live checks verified dismissal
across browsers, company-relative CTA navigation, modal
deferral/restoration, and new-ID eligibility after restarting the same
database.
- The deployed empty feed and a real remote 404 return HTTP 200 with
null from the board API, with a usable dashboard and no announcement
popup or browser warnings.
- Authoring documentation covers staging, animated HTML constraints,
test-drive, withdrawal, ID reuse and cache-refresh steps.

## Risks

- Animation supports self-contained visual HTML/CSS and inline SVG,
without JavaScript or external resources. A static image is required.
Older builds that do not recognize the optional animation field quietly
hide that unsupported feed.
- The default feed makes an outbound request from an instance when a
board is used. Operators can disable it. Requests contain no account
IDs, company data, cookies or interaction events.
- Feed publication and withdrawal can take about 65 minutes to reach
returning users because of CDN and instance caches. Expiration also
removes visible cards locally.
- Dismissals follow an account within one instance. No-login instances
share the existing local-board identity. Separate installations do not
share state.
- Both tables are additive. A unique key prevents duplicate dismissals;
the transaction prevents duplicate first-dismissal audit entries. The
publication registry retains only validated IDs. AGENTS.md and the
implementation spec document the required exception to company scope for
these instance-level records.
- Publication was limited to separate public staging prefixes on the
existing preview host. Production remains empty/unpublished. No AWS
policies or infrastructure were changed.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The exact runtime model ID and
context-window size are not exposed in this session. Capabilities used:
reasoning, code editing, shell execution, tests, browser interaction,

DottaandPaperclip 422287eecd fix: preserve runner recovery, warm sessions, and task outcomes (#13338)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The native runner connects task messages, provider execution, and
task outcomes.
> - First-time user tests exposed gaps in recovery, completion
permissions, message delivery, and Stop behavior.
> - These gaps left usable output hidden, completed work waiting for
bookkeeping, or safe work unable to continue.
> - This pull request fixes the shared lifecycle and receipt paths while
preserving process ownership and action checks.
> - Users can continue work with accurate task state and durable
messages.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A stopped local Codex execution could remain blocked even after its
processes had stopped and its complete transcript proved that no
external action needed replay. Claude under Conservative permissions
could fail to call task completion tools. Recovery could reuse an
assistant item ID and overwrite prior output. A delivered comment could
remain marked uncertain after navigation. Stop could look like Pause or
a new recovery incident. Workspace contention could look like
cancellation. A direct reply reopening Done could enter a clarification
loop.

**Expected behavior**

Recover automatically only with verified termination and complete action
receipts. Preserve answers and messages. Keep task completion available
under Conservative permissions without broad tool access. Show crashes
as Blocked, actual human decisions as In Review, and ordinary workspace
contention as waiting. Stop the current response and allow a new
direction.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create ordinary response tasks with local Codex and Claude Code, then
send follow-up messages through the task composer.
2. Interrupt a disposable local Codex runner during text-only work.
Verify automatic continuation and retained output.
3. Stop a response, send a new request, answer a clarification, and
reopen completed work with another message.
4. Navigate or reload while a comment submission is pending. Confirm the
exact persisted request receipt settles it without removing newer draft
text.
5. Run two tasks in a shared Daytona workspace. Confirm waiting does not
appear as failure.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Initial acceptance baseline: `c9021c6721f91e2c74bd9fee9d3fd41c999d17b7`.
Current integration base: `6cef9743c`. Both operator-interruption and
workspace-waiting guards are preserved; native restart and legacy
permission rules remain documented.

**Deployment mode**

An isolated source-built test-drive instance, with real local Codex and
Claude Code providers and disposable Daytona environments.

Related work: #13314, #13316, #13327, #13344, #13239, #13254, #13163.
This PR addresses additional failures from ordinary task journeys,
including controller restart handoff and repeated warm sandbox setup.
Historical task status reconciliation is excluded.

## What Changed

- Persist runner ownership immediately at spawn and resume an explicitly
adopted runner even when the controller crashed before the first driver
checkpoint. Detach the controller safely across graceful restarts,
including session startup. Prevent an old finalizer from suspending or
signaling an adopted runner. Checkpoint idle warm sessions before
shutdown. Preserve the same run and queued follow-up messages.
- Scope saved legacy queue successor checks to the queue owner while
preserving ordinary task locks, operator identity, assignment gates, and
exactly-once delivery.
- Preserve managed Codex credential files when an old session is
detached for restart; normal owned cleanup still copies refreshed auth
back and removes the scoped copy.
- Reuse the bound warm shared sandbox and fully verify an existing
staged provider pack before using it. This avoids repeated uploads when
the pack is already valid.
- Add a narrow local Codex replacement path with stopped-process proof,
a closed transcript inventory, exact completion receipts, and
fresh-session lineage. Preserve no-replay holds when evidence is
incomplete. Recovery may clear only the same run's recorded Blocked
status version; manual re-blocking and dependency changes invalidate
that receipt, while queued comments do not. Later blocks stop scheduled,
queued, and final dispatch; queued/final checks re-read dependencies
even when the task status stays In Progress.
- Permit only task delivery and human-input tools through the isolated
Claude runner's exact task bridge.
- Scope assistant item identity to the provider turn and ignore only
authority-free Codex skill-change notifications during startup.
- Reconcile composer submissions by client request ID across response
loss, navigation, and reload. Retain text typed during delivery.
- Keep acknowledged run-only Stop neutral and show workspace contention
as waiting. Project exhausted native failures as Blocked.
- Restore the guarded task-page retry action for failed legacy runs,
including the server-supported explicit new-attempt path for stopped
conversation adapters. Preserve native/process recovery holds and avoid
promising Retry while a decision or execution gate hides it.
- Refresh delivered artifacts and handle direct user replies that reopen
completed work without a clarification loop.
- Check the embedded PostgreSQL PID, data directory, and actual port
before connecting or migrating.
- Document accepted behavior and add focused regressions at lifecycle,
route, transcript, and UI boundaries.

## Verification

- Final head `fece606ac2` passes the complete GitHub CI matrix: **34
green checks, two expected Storybook skips, no failures or pending
checks**, including `ci / verify`, `ci / e2e`, full runner verification,
typecheck, build, every server/workspace shard, and all browser shards.
[CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34727183287).
Greptile is **5/5 with no open findings**. The final two commits only
refine test fixtures; both affected suites pass 24/24 locally and in CI,
with server typecheck green.
- Complete local Vitest coverage uses the canonical groups/shards: all
635 general server suites, all 145 serialized suites, and all workspace
packages. The aggregate began on `0a8001c18` while the final queue fix
arrived: 23,903 passed, five failed, 87 skipped. The five
port/socket/timing failures passed unchanged in follow-ups (60 tests in
the exposure/file suites and 412 tests covering the serialized failures
and unrun tails). The final queue/operator-identity suites separately
passed 52/52. This is aggregate coverage plus explicit reruns, not a
pristine single-command final-head run.
- After integration with current master,
queue/operator-identity/continuation suites passed 162/162 and affected
UI suites passed 140/140. ACP Stop/continuation and legacy
task/Inbox/message browser suites passed 9/9, including both task
recovery Retry and thread Try again, automatic saved-message delivery,
exactly one new run, Done, and retained output after reload. The default
process Stop/Pause/Resume browser case passed (the native-provider case
is opt-in and skipped by default). The complete Board attachment/receipt
browser suite passed 11/11 on a disposable instance, covering both
composers, exact receipts after lost responses, no replay, bound
attachments, and newer drafts after reload.
- Blocking-intent regressions cover pre-existing Blocked, a mismatched
run/cause, an explicit manual re-block, changed dependencies, a queued
comment after failure, and a block arriving between scheduling and
provider dispatch. The negative cases reproduced before the fix. All 478
affected executor/recovery/dispatch tests passed; both database suites
ran separately after availability-probe skips in the first combined
command. The final late-dependency check passed all 143 affected
recovery/dispatch tests (zero skips) after two new negative cases
reproduced the bug.
- Focused runtime regressions cover awaited runner ownership
publication, authenticated adoption before the first checkpoint,
old-finalizer detachment, idle and busy warm-session shutdown, rejected
checkpoint propagation, provider-pack verification, and managed-Codex
credential preservation. Four managed credential detachment cases
reproduced the bug before the fix; normal owned cleanup still succeeds
exactly once.
- Live local Claude: SIGKILL 2.6 seconds into startup recovered the same
run automatically in 53 seconds, then a normal follow-up completed in 24
seconds. SIGTERM 2.5 seconds into startup preserved the same run (54
seconds) and its queued follow-up (21 seconds). Answers remained visible
and the task reached Done.
- Live Claude Daytona: a warm follow-up retained its sandbox and fell
from 121 seconds to 44 seconds. A separate cold turn took 127 seconds;
after controller shutdown and checkpointing, its follow-up completed in
33 seconds with the same sandbox, workspace, native session, and runner.
Both answers remained visible and the task was Done.
- Other live journeys covered task completion and follow-up with local
and Daytona Codex, local Codex crash recovery, Stop then new direction,
clarification response, live artifact refresh, and shared-workspace
waiting.
- Validation limits: the opt-in native composer Stop/Pause→subtree
Resume fixture exposes terminal/result ordering and subtree-cancellation
attribution bugs that can leave a child task blocked; that new finding
is assigned to a separate follow-up and is not claimed fixed here.
Default CI skips this optional native-provider fixture. Managed-Codex
credential handoff and the queue-agent integration use automated
regression evidence. Cold custom provider-pack uploads still add startup
latency.

## Risks

- Automatic replacement remains deliberately narrow: local Codex,
verified stopped identities, unchanged retained state, and a complete
text/completion-only turn. Unknown actions, partial history, or changed
ownership remain blocked.
- Claude completion permission handling changes an upstream package
patch. The exact isolated task bridge must remain pinned; unrelated
tools keep their existing permissions.
- New task failure projection changes user-visible status. No historical
status backfill or database migration is included.
- This is a broad lifecycle fix across server and UI. Live proof covers
graceful local Claude restart during startup and idle Claude Daytona
session recovery across controller shutdown. Live abrupt SIGKILL during
local Claude startup also recovered the same run. Unknown ownership or
missing action evidence still blocks reuse. Cold custom provider-pack
uploads still add startup latency; this change avoids unnecessary repeat
uploads.

OpenAI GPT-6 (Codex), with reasoning, code execution, browser
automation, and tool use. The exact hosted model ID and context window

DottaandPaperclip 47ded8bf97 feat: manage AI runtime credentials through Connections (#13247)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent runs need credentials for a specific provider and sign-in
method.
> - Connections already owns accounts, grants, and access permissions.
> - AI authentication should use those same boundaries.
> - This pull request adds the storage, API, adoption, and runtime
foundation.
> - Legacy agents keep their authentication until they explicitly adopt
a managed connection.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**
AI credentials are configured separately from Connections. Agents cannot
consistently reuse a responsible user's account or a permitted shared
account.

**Proposed solution**
Manage AI accounts with the existing Connections grants and permissions.
Keep model and harness selection independent from credential selection.
Preserve legacy authentication until validated adoption.

**Alternatives considered**
A separate credential registry would duplicate ownership and access
policy. Automatic fallback would risk using the wrong account.

**Roadmap alignment**
This extends the shipped Apps, multi-user, secrets, and agent-runtime
capabilities. The maintainer requested the feature and reviewed the UI.
Related groundwork: #11899 (connection permissions), #10910 (connection
wizard), #11692 (Claude subscription profiles), and #11854 (Codex
account rotation).

## What Changed

- Add AI-purpose/runtime-auth contracts and an additive, idempotent
migration.
- Add Claude, OpenAI, OpenRouter, and Grok provider capabilities and
catalog entries.
- Store credentials on grants. Resolve responsible-user defaults or
explicit permitted grants.
- Isolate managed credentials and provider sessions across accounts.
Block missing credentials without ambient fallback.
- Keep imported legacy secrets unchanged during reconnect. Use
independent local Codex/Grok sign-in attempts for rotating credentials.
- Add authorization, migration, concurrent refresh, retry, cancellation,
and legacy-compatibility tests.

This is part 1 of a two-PR stack. The app UI follows in #13248. Merge
the foundation first.

## Verification

- Updated against master `04e364236`, preserving upstream provider login
and connector workflows.
- Full workspace typecheck, production build, Storybook build, and token
gates passed on the integrated branch. Final local-login changes passed
59 focused tests; new-agent and inbox regression suites passed 63 tests.
- Browser checks verified automatic local Claude account detection,
resumable Codex login commands, retry, focus restoration, and
desktop/phone layouts. Commands create their isolated directory before
invoking the CLI.
- All current-head CI checks passed on `2a996560a`, including all
server/workspace tests, browser shards, runner verification, typecheck,
build, and canary dry run. Greptile reviewed that commit at 5/5 with no
unresolved threads. Earlier local full-suite attempts hit the Mac
PostgreSQL shared-memory limit; the complete suites passed in CI.
- Renumbered the additive AI migration to `0276` after upstream
migrations and regenerated its snapshot. Existing legacy agents retain
their configuration.
- Added local login status checks, owner-scoped retry, managed OpenCode
remote homes, credential-aware model discovery, and task
connection-repair delivery.

## Risks

- Managed credential failures intentionally block execution. They do not
restore legacy fallback.
- Preview-era copied Codex/Grok subscriptions require independent
reconnect.
- The integrated branch has live provider acceptance coverage. This
update verifies local Claude detection and Codex API-key task repair; it
does not add a new subscription authorization/refresh or Daytona stress
pass.
- Runtime-auth connections must stay excluded from tool and channel
handling.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser testing. The exact runtime model identifier and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 9031516a7e fix: recover legacy Daytona startup failures from task and inbox (#13272)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Legacy conversation adapters can run in Daytona sandboxes.
> - A server restart during provisioning can occur before the invocation
event exists.
> - Recovery then lacks the old adapter identity and leaves a hold that
ordinary user retries cannot clear.
> - A remote launch can also fail when its host relay looks for Node in
the sandbox PATH.
> - This pull request records the adapter at claim time and restores
explicit user continuation after verified cleanup.
> - Users can recover from the task or inbox while the failed run and
uncertain action history remain intact.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13237, #13239, #13254. Those changes cover recorded conversation
runs, native user continuation, and explicit remote Stop. This change
covers legacy failure before `adapter.invoke` and exact task/inbox
Retry.

Refs #9771 for overlapping generated-command quoting. This change also
supplies the absolute host Node executable. Refs #13163 and #13264 for
the separate native restart and retained-workspace work.

**What happened?**
A legacy Daytona run interrupted during provisioning became
`process_lost` without an invocation event. Recovery preserved an
execution hold, and Retry or a new task reply could not resume it.
Cleanup could also run before the Daytona plugin was ready. On a macOS
host, a subsequent ACP relay launch failed with `env: node: No such file
or directory` because the remote launch environment did not contain the
host Node path.

**Expected behavior**
An interrupted conversation can continue after its previous execution
stops. Explicit Retry and new user replies should start a fresh turn
with the task history. Cleanup failures must remain visible and
recoverable. The host relay must use the host Node executable.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Use a legacy Claude adapter with a Daytona environment.
2. Interrupt the server after it acquires the sandbox lease and before
it records `adapter.invoke`.
3. Restart and inspect the task hold.
4. Retry from the task or inbox, or send a new task reply.
5. Confirm the old sandbox has stopped and one new response arrives.

**Paperclip version or commit**
Reproduced from master at `3bafac12f796fbea02e609e1074a9639f872e9c4`.
The branch is rebased on `51b0e01ea`, including #13261 and #13270.

**Deployment mode**
Built from source on macOS with a real Daytona sandbox and the legacy
Claude ACP adapter.

## What Changed

- Count new browser specs with the scheduler's median duration in the
shard-balance check. This fixes a false policy failure after new specs
arrive from both branches. The balance threshold is unchanged.

- Persist server-owned adapter identity in the queued-to-running claim
before provisioning starts.
- Wait for provider plugin startup before restart cleanup. Keep failed
cleanup leases as active ownership blockers.
- Admit exact board retries and new user comments after verified
termination. Retain the old run, task history, approvals, and unknown
action outcomes.
- Adopt repeated Retry requests. Permit one scoped cleanup attempt per
explicit user Retry after the automatic limit, with an activity record.
A later user Retry can recover after a transient provider failure;
automatic attempts remain capped.
- Resume replies deferred during cleanup, including historical legacy
startup failures.
- Launch the host ACP relay through the absolute host Node executable.
- Add a task-level Retry button and return actionable blockers when
retry admission is refused.
- Add database regressions and three browser recovery journeys. Exclude
installed third-party dependency skills from the shipped-skill audit.

## Verification

- Current head: `d23c84181`, rebased on `51b0e01ea`. Conflict resolution
retains the saved-message recovery, local stop receipts, and wait
reasons from #13270 alongside exact legacy Retry support.
- Real Daytona: interrupted the server after lease acquisition and
before adapter invocation. Restart cleanup confirmed provider
termination. Task Retry cleared a seeded historical hold and a real
Claude agent returned `Recovery verified.` in the task. Removed the
disposable sandbox and environment after testing.
- All three browser recovery journeys passed again after the final
rebase. Task Retry, Inbox Retry, and a new reply each produced one fresh
successor, completed the task, preserved the failed run, and retained
the answer after reload.
- All 29 e2e/server shard-partition tests passed. The balance check now
uses the scheduler's median fallback for unmeasured specs, with the same
balance threshold.
- Server typecheck passed after rebuilding the generated runner
dependencies. The combined recovery/route run passed 136 of 137 tests.
Its remaining route test timed out during the first cold module import
at its explicit 10-second limit; an isolated rerun reproduced that
timeout and passed the other 51 route cases. The complete CI suite
passed on this head. The same route file passed all 52 cases in CI,
including the first cold import in 7.5 seconds.
- Before the final rebase, recursive typecheck, full build, UI token
gates, 132 targeted server tests, and the complete [CI
workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34650004085)
passed. The subsequent CI failure was the shard-balance accounting
mismatch fixed here.
- Greptile reviewed `d23c84181` at 5/5 with no outstanding actionable
findings. The complete [current CI
workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34653327949)
passed on attempt 2. All test, typecheck, build, and canary jobs passed
on the first attempt. Docker setup timed out fetching BuildKit from
Docker Hub; retrying that job and its dependent aggregate succeeded.

## Risks

- Recovery admission changes executable authority. Company, task, agent,
user, approvals, process ownership, and provider termination checks
remain required.
- Explicit continuation starts a fresh conversation with history. It
does not certify unknown external action outcomes or rerun
non-conversation adapters automatically.
- Changing task status alone does not clear an execution hold. The task
now offers an explicit Retry action.
- Historical adapter claims and invocation events take precedence over
current agent settings. Known process or webhook runs retain their hold.
Pre-upgrade rows with no adapter evidence may receive only a new
explicit user turn after termination proof; they do not become eligible
for automatic replay.
- No schema migration or sandbox-image change is required. This branch
has not been deployed to production.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with repository inspection, code execution,
browser automation, and test execution. The exact deployment model ID
and context window are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 3bafac12f7 refactor: remove automatic productivity reviews (#13263)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Its recovery loop keeps assigned work moving after execution
failures.
> - Productivity review used run counts, comment counts, and elapsed
time to create management tasks.
> - Infrastructure failures could satisfy those rules and create more
tasks without evidence that the source work needed management review.
> - This pull request removes that detector and its continuation holds.
> - Bounded recovery, budgets, explicit blockers, and normal review
stages remain in place.
> - Existing task records stay readable and unchanged.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #5897. That request describes unwanted automatic productivity
reviews and asks to preserve existing tasks. This change retires the
feature instead of adding another configuration switch.

Related prior approaches: Refs #9191, Refs #12489. Those changes
excluded infrastructure failures or bounded review creation. This
removal replaces the detector rather than tuning its thresholds.

## What Changed

- Delete the scheduled detector, automatic task creation, evidence
refresh, and productivity continuation holds.
- Remove computed productivity fields, special attention items, badges,
and Storybook fixtures.
- Retain historical origin values, decision compatibility, and recovery
recursion exclusions. Add no migration and change no existing task data.
- Update the execution contract. Replace feature tests with regressions
for legacy task reads, ordinary attention, and bounded continuation in
the presence of an old review.

## Verification

- Targeted attention, issue-route, startup, and UI tests: 4 files and
101 tests passed.
- Updated issue-route and UI tests: 2 files and 61 tests passed.
- Bounded continuation regression: 2 cases passed, including a legacy
review plus pre-dispatch cancellation churn.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: all four gates passed.
- `git diff --check`: passed.
- `pnpm build-storybook`: passed.
- Greptile: 5/5 on `a5a612eea`, with no actionable findings.
- Scheduler and historical recovery regressions: 2 files and 28 tests
passed.
- Repository `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`: passed.
- The complete `pnpm test:run` suite passed across the CI server,
serialized-server, and workspace shards on `a5a612eea`. Stopped the
duplicate local monolithic run after the full CI suite passed; no
completed local full-suite result is claimed. The targeted local suites
above passed.
- CI serialized shard 5 initially hit a 10-second timeout in the first
interaction-route test. The complete file passed locally (78 tests),
then the single CI rerun passed.
- All CI gates are green, including the build and end-to-end suites.
- A local merge check against current `master` (`ce09ea40b`) completed
without conflicts.

## Risks

- API responses no longer include the computed `productivityReview`
field. Consumers must stop using it.
- The scheduler no longer creates management work from elapsed time, run
counts, or missing comments. This is the intended behavior change.
- Existing review tasks and explicit dependencies remain in place.
Historical origins still prevent recursive recovery treatment. No task
cleanup or data migration occurs.
- The native review handoff repair is separate from this removal.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 889947c238 feat: add experimental native chat connectors (#13038)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - People also ask agents for work in their existing chat tools.
> - Each external conversation needs one task and a current authorized
source.
> - Retries, Stop, and provider failures must not duplicate work or
expose private data.
> - The first chat PR establishes the opt-in provider and data
contracts.
> - This PR adds experimental channel integration and its durable
control plane.
> - Users can request work from connected channels and inspect delivery
in Paperclip.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13100 and #13092. This is the second of exactly two chat PRs.
Foundation #13100 is merged and changed 143 files. Runner prerequisite
#13092 is also merged. This PR changes 400 files against master, below
the 500-file review limit. It contains no wireframe images or HTML
galleries.

## What Changed

- Add native Slack, GitHub, Microsoft Teams, Telegram, and Discord chat
connections. Keep chat disabled unless the operator enables experimental
chat connectors. Preserve the production GitHub tool connection and its
normal setup path.
- Bind each provider bot identity to one immutable Paperclip agent. Bind
each admitted external conversation to one task. Paperclip owns tasks,
runs, permissions, and audit records.
- Add durable admission, per-conversation queues, questions, task
controls, progress, final replies, images, files, and delivery receipts.
Board comments remain internal unless explicitly sent to the channel.
- Check current identity, provider reach, resource access, credentials,
runtime generation, and exact source before provider effects. Keep
private responses private. Never send raw reasoning, private logs,
credentials, or tool arguments.
- Hold uncertain sends for explicit audited resolution. Make Board
Send-to-channel atomic and idempotent. Keep reconnect and setup
credentials in Paperclip secret storage.
- Preserve current native-runner authority across retries, lost
acknowledgements, and recovery. Keep immutable input and completion
contracts separate from newer user input. Receipt reconciliation cannot
launch a provider.
- Reconcile chat close/new ordering and provider-effect lock order.
Audit resource access changes in the same transaction. Submit only the
selected resource from each UI toggle so stale pages cannot undo
unrelated access changes.
- Drain Codex stdout before certifying process exit. Bound the drain
with the existing shutdown grace. Preserve observed terminal authority
without treating an undrained process as successful or reusable.
- Incorporate master `018ca5da` with its ACP Stop, mobile task layout,
runner packaging, and official lock changes. Preserve dedicated
chat-answer continuations in both directions when ordinary queued
comments are adopted after Stop.
- Fence late adapter readiness behind an earlier Stop for the same run.
Preserve verified cleanup for registered adapters. Handle single Stop,
agent pause, duplicate Stops, and failure release without creating a
false cancellation receipt.
- Incorporate master's `6dd48cad4` wake-queue extraction. Preserve exact
failed-chat retry authorization and lineage, retired question-source
suppression, and the block on generic recovery that would discard the
admitted source. Fresh deferred input retains its separate promotion
path.
- Incorporate master `2a05b5ed3` and its queue-admission extraction,
simplified transaction ports, and separate runner CI job. Preserve exact
durable receipts, actor separation, and dedicated-answer isolation
through the new module. A failed receipt insert rolls back the
accompanying deferred-wake merge.

## Verification

Current head: `afe19299d06253cb628eb398e91d1200ea9f412a`, incorporating
master `2a05b5ed3457ea33efd6895520447d1d97fe98d8`. The conflicts are
resolved. This successor fixes two test-harness boundaries exposed by
CI: per-case route-module preparation and actual durable-save completion
before intentional runner termination. Production code and all existing
test/turn deadlines are unchanged. [Exact-head Greptile
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/13038#issuecomment-5587250594)
is **5/5**, completed September 10 at 13:20:55 UTC, with no actionable
findings or open review threads. [Fresh exact-head
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34481724341)
passes **all 24 jobs**, including Build and both required aggregates.
Normal exact-head guarded merge was attempted and rejected by the
remaining branch approval policy: CODEOWNER review is required and no
human approval is present. Normal **squash auto-merge is enabled** as of
September 10 at 13:36:26 UTC. Requested CODEOWNERS have been notified;
no approval bypass or self-approval was used. Earlier-head results below
remain historical evidence, not qualification of this successor.

- Final exact-head Linux evidence: 995/995 chat integration cases; 36/36
agent-skills routes; 35/35 runner live-session cases, including real
process kill/resume; 1948 runner Vitest cases with three existing
benchmark/platform guards; 870/870 API-authority cases; and 104 browser
cases with four existing optional skips. Rust, conformance/replay, full
repository build, typecheck, canary, all server/workspace shards, and
both required aggregates pass with normal CI concurrency. Earlier failed
attempts remain recorded below.

- Latest test-only qualification: 141/141
route/permissions/authentication cases pass in separate cold forks, with
plain server types and independent review clear. The real-runner suite
passes 35/35, with plain runner types and independent review clear. A
controlled premature-save acknowledgement fails as expected; matching
ownership/effect/process evidence, rejected saves, real turn outcome,
test abort, and pre-kill liveness are covered. No local reproduction of
the original CI scheduling failure is claimed. The preceding [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34479680858)
passes 21/24 jobs, including all 995 Linux chat cases and browser
aggregate (104 passed, four existing optional skips); only Build, the
skills serialized shard, and the required verification aggregate fail.
Its exact-head Greptile review was 5/5. Both failed job logs are
retained.

- Final fixture qualification: all eight focused Discord cases and all
995 chat integration cases pass. The exact modal statement/PID is
observed before taking the real connection lock; the test then proves
its actual blocking relationship before mutation. Original SQL
execution, provider behavior, negative assertions, and 1s/15s timeouts
remain unchanged. Independent review is clear and test/production hashes
remain frozen. The preceding [CI
attempt](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34477184777)
passed 22 jobs, including Build/runner, typecheck, canary, all other
test shards, and browser aggregate (104 passed, four existing optional
skips); the two fixture failures and failed verification aggregate
remain recorded, not relabeled as a pass.

- Current queue-module composition: 308/308 recovery/batching/queue/Stop
tests; 995/995 full chat integration; 89/89 module tests, including real
PostgreSQL receipt-insert rollback; 24/24 workflow/module-boundary
tests; plain server and UI types. All four actual local process/ACP
browser paths pass in 1.4 minutes. Fresh databases, no skips or retries,
stable reviewed source hashes. The initial boundary failure is retained;
its no-op service wrapper was removed without changing recovery context
or weakening the check. An exploratory standalone test-directory
typecheck fails because its new upstream transformation config is not a
standalone typechecking project; standard CI/build does not invoke it,
and no configuration was weakened to suppress those diagnostics.

- The preceding head `e02a63d462ce5d47433b0aeb632bb6fd20aab1ba` passed
[all 24 CI
jobs](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34436462958)
and exact-head Greptile review at 5/5. Required CODEOWNER review
prevented its normal merge before master advanced again.

- Final extracted-module composition: 307/307 recovery, batching, queue
and Stop-control tests; 995/995 full chat integration; 49/49 module
tests including eight PostgreSQL adapter cases; and 19/19 issue-update
tests. Plain server types pass. All four actual local process/ACP
browser paths pass in 1.3 minutes. Fresh databases, no skips or retries
in these cohorts, frozen source hashes, and independent review clear.

- The preceding head `3e4e1c1c` passes [all PR CI
jobs](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/34415826820),
including Build and required `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`. Both the
original Rust failure and the previously load-sensitive lineage fixture
pass with unchanged Linux concurrency. Master advanced afterward and
required this reconciliation.
- Final master composition: 448/448 focused UI tests, 186/186 adapter
tests, 24/24 queue/control tests, and 11/11 packaging tests. Plain UI,
server, shared, and adapter types pass. Token gates and diff checks
pass. Independent server and UI reviews are clear.
- Stop-registration regression: both real-service cases fail against
exact `a95` source and pass with the fix. The full corrected
recovery/control suite passes 265/265. Duplicate-owner and failed-Stop
controls also pass. Plain server types pass. The readiness barrier
prevents provider startup without adding an acknowledgment to an already
terminal run.
- Final qualification strengthens terminal-field equality and repeats
both affected cases successfully on a fresh database. All four actual
local process/ACP browser paths pass again in 1.3 minutes, without skips
or retries. The final screenshot shows Cancelled, a paused subtree,
retained input, and no error toast.
- Two new actual-service regressions fail before the merge fix. They
prove that queued-comment adoption could consume a dedicated chat answer
or add unrelated input to that answer. The fixed four-case cohort
passes, including ordinary upstream continuation and adapter Stop
controls. Full recovery passes 257/257. All four actual local
process/ACP Stop browser flows pass in 1.4 minutes, without skips or
retries, on a fresh database.
- The unchanged runner artifact was qualified with 171/171 transport
tests, 870/870 API-authority tests, conformance 1/1, and replay 11/11.
Six controlled reader tests prove the exit/drain repair. Its local
serial Rust workspace passed 546 top-level cases plus two invoked
helpers; the later passing Linux CI supplies default-concurrency
evidence.
- Prior exact-source full chat integration passes 995/995. Settings
regressions cover concurrent stale pages, 501 destinations, pending
state, rejected updates, and explicit retry. These deterministic tests
do not prove live provider behavior.
- Retained failed attempts and their causes are in the [qualification
log](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/afe19299d06253cb628eb398e91d1200ea9f412a/doc/plans/chat-adapters/2026-09-08-chat-queue-and-webhook-repair.md).
The first merge adapter run timed out while macOS slept for 290 seconds.
Its unchanged repeat passed with a temporary sleep guard. No assertion,
deadline, or CI gate was weakened.

Review commands include `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest
run src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
src/__tests__/issue-queued-comments-routes.test.ts` and `pnpm exec
playwright test --config tests/e2e/playwright.config.ts
tests/e2e/acp-stop-continuation.spec.ts`. Database suites require fresh
disposable databases. See the [browser
runbook](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/afe19299d06253cb628eb398e91d1200ea9f412a/doc/plans/chat-adapters/2026-09-04-chat-adapters-browser-e2e-runbook.md)
for provider setup and separate live acceptance steps.

## Risks

- This remains experimental. Deterministic tests and bounded live
evidence do not establish every provider feature, tenant, permission
layout, or media shape. Teams work-tenant qualification is still open.
- Failed and uncertain provider effects remain visible and can require
operator action. A transport receipt does not prove recipient
visibility.
- Native controller and runner artifacts must remain compatible.
Preserve lease ownership, terminal authority, source binding, and
quarantine during future changes.
- Access and audit rows commit together, but activity notifications
remain best-effort. This is not a new durable event outbox.
- The PR operation does not deploy a live server, replace its runner, or
change provider permissions. Remaining live qualification is documented
in the [temporary
handoff](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/afe19299d06253cb628eb398e91d1200ea9f412a/doc/plans/chat-adapters/2026-09-08-open-qualification-followups.md).

DottaandPaperclip e095b84dab feat(connections): connect services from native task feeds (#13058)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents use connections to reach external services.
> - A fresh native task can have no service tools installed.
> - The agent needs a way to discover services and ask the responsible
person for access.
> - This pull request brings the existing connection-intent flow into
native task execution.
> - The person can connect from the task, and the agent can continue
with updated tools.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Native runner tool authority, connection intents, task interactions, and
shared connection setup.

**Problem or motivation**

A task that needs an unconnected service cannot finish its work. Leaving
the task to configure access also loses context. A resolved request must
survive a restart and resume the correct agent once.

**Proposed solution**

Expose connection discovery and access requests as server-owned native
tools. Render a durable task card and use the shared setup dialog.
Persist outcome delivery and start a fresh provider session after access
is ready.

**Alternatives considered**

Sending the person to the Connections page adds navigation and does not
solve continuation. Polling for authorization consumes runs and can
create duplicate requests.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing connection-intent runtime and setup
experience. It reuses the shared access model and the native runner.

Related: #12345, #12347. The service-slug fix in #12906 is related but
separate. Companion evaluation PR:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-evals/pull/21.

## What Changed

- Expose `connections_search` and `connection_request` with server-bound
company, task, agent, and responsible user. Preserve the legacy entry
points.
- Discover catalog services and authorized custom connections. Check
installation, identity, health, and executable permissions before
reporting ready.
- Keep pending cards through ordinary messages. Reuse requests and
retire stale ownership. Put Connect at the right of Not now.
- Reuse the shared setup flow in a task dialog. Keep access additive and
default to the requesting agent. Recover from cancelled or blocked OAuth
windows with a new-tab fallback.
- Persist outcome delivery with an idempotent wake key. Resume in a
fresh session and recheck ownership before dispatch.
- Add native browser fixtures, offline Storybook states, server
contracts, and evaluation fixtures. Update guidance and documentation.

## Verification

- `pnpm build`: passed after replaying the change on current master.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build-storybook`: passed.
- New continuation-policy regression cases: 16 passed.
- Docker-backed PostgreSQL regressions passed for requester-only OAuth
access, assignment-only expiry, terminal expiry, and credential-free
setup metadata.
- Shared setup and task-card UI tests: 121 passed, including configured
MCP reconnect URL recovery and preserving user edits across refetch.
- Storybook browser checks: all 119 passed on the latest reconnect fix.
- `pnpm test:run`: 4,734 tests passed in the first server group, but
embedded PostgreSQL startup failures and resulting cleanup errors
prevented a complete local pass. All Linux CI lanes passed on the latest
reviewed commit. One external-object route test returned an unexplained
500 on the first run; it passed twice locally and the failed shard
passed on retry without code changes.
- Earlier feature-checkout evidence: three deterministic native browser
journeys passed, including restart delivery and an actual fixture tool
result. Legacy scripted coverage also passed. All 59 added stories were
inspected in light and dark themes.
- Live Notion testing recorded successful provider reads. The manual
test used a local-trusted instance. It does not prove
authenticated/cloud deployment or every provider journey.
- Native browser rerun reached the embedded PostgreSQL startup limit
before bootstrap, so the latest checkout’s full native browser journey
remains unverified. Both OAuth page/task regression cases passed against
isolated Docker-backed PostgreSQL 17. They verify no premature task
access, requester-only completion, additive retries, and reconnect
preservation.
- Applied both new migrations twice to isolated PostgreSQL 17. Foreign
keys remained intact, duplicate active delivery keys were rejected, and
failed delivery records did not block retries.

Reviewer path: start a fresh test drive, enable the native runner, use
an agent that can perform work directly, and ask it to summarize a
Notion page. Connect from the card, then verify the resumed provider
call and source-linked answer. The default test-drive CEO is instructed
to delegate, so it can introduce an unrelated hiring step.

## Risks

- Two additive migrations create durable deliveries and a partial unique
wake index. They are idempotent. The wake index can require a
maintenance window on large tables because migrations run in a
transaction.
- OAuth and continuation cross asynchronous boundaries. Tests cover
ownership changes, retries, additive access, and restart delivery; live
provider behavior still varies.
- The latest requester-scope fix has not yet been exercised through live
OAuth. GitHub, API-key, authenticated-user, and all recovery journeys
are not claimed as verified.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6-based Codex assisted with implementation, tests, and review
using tools and code execution. The runtime does not expose the exact
model version, context window, or reasoning setting. Live evaluation
used `gpt-5.6-luna`; manual native testing used `gpt-5.6-sol`.

Jannes StubbemannandClaude Fable 5.1 023e640a7e fix(db): reap idle pool connections, name the pool, and end it on shutdown (#12956)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The server keeps one postgres.js pool (`packages/db/src/client.ts`,
`createDb`) for every query it runs. #10795 made the pool tunable from
the environment, but the defaults stayed at the driver defaults: an idle
connection never closes, the pool reports itself as `postgres.js`, and
no code path ever calls `sql.end()`.
> - On a hosted Paperclip deployment the server entered a restart loop
(a bundled plugin failure that #12953 describes made every run fail, and
the pool saturated). Each generation opened its ten connections, died,
and left the backends open on the PostgreSQL side until TCP keepalive
reaped them hours later. After about 20 generations the backends
exceeded `max_connections`, and every later boot died on its first
bootstrap query with `sorry, too many clients already`, before
`server.listen()`. The loop could not heal itself. #9555 describes the
same shape on a launchd-supervised self-hosted install.
> - Three properties of the pool combine to make this possible: idle
connections are never reaped, the pool is never ended on any exit path,
and an operator cannot even find the leaked backends in
`pg_stat_activity` because they carry the generic driver name.
> - This pull request gives the pool a 60 second idle timeout and the
`paperclip` application name by default, exposes `max_lifetime` and
`application_name` through the same `DATABASE_*` environment contract
that #10795 introduced, and ends the pool on the orderly SIGINT/SIGTERM
path and on the fail-loud startup path.
> - The benefit is that a restarting or crash-looping server releases
its backends instead of accumulating them, and an operator can see and
count Paperclip's connections.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Refs #9555 — database connection pool leak causes an infinite restart
loop under load. This PR closes the "pool never ends, idle connections
never close" part of that report.
- Refs #12953 — hosted outage report. The pool exhaustion is the second
half of that incident; the first half (a stuck sandbox provider plugin)
has its own PR.
- Related prior PRs: #9597 and #8780 both propose hard-coded
`idle_timeout` / `max_lifetime` values in `createDb`. Both predate
#10795 (merged), which made these options environment-driven; this PR
builds on the merged shape and adds the shutdown `end()` that neither
covers. #4006 and #7481 are closed earlier attempts in the same area.

## What Changed

- `packages/db/src/client.ts`
- New `resolveDatabaseClientOptions()` applies Paperclip defaults on top
of the environment: `idleTimeoutSeconds` defaults to 60
(`DEFAULT_DATABASE_IDLE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`) and `applicationName` to
`paperclip` (`DEFAULT_DATABASE_APPLICATION_NAME`). `createDb` uses it
for both the environment path and explicit options.
- `DATABASE_IDLE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS` now accepts `0` to restore the driver
default (keep idle connections open). Negative or non-integer values
still throw.
- New environment variables: `DATABASE_MAX_LIFETIME_SECONDS` (positive
integer, maps to `max_lifetime`) and `DATABASE_APPLICATION_NAME`
(non-empty string, maps to `connection.application_name`).
  - `postgresJsOptions()` maps the two new options.
- `server/src/shutdown.ts`
- `finalizeServerShutdown` gains two optional ordered steps:
`closeHttpListener` runs first, before the application services stop;
`closeDatabase` runs after the application services and before the
embedded PostgreSQL stop. A failure in either is logged and does not
stop the teardown. Final order: listener → application services →
database pool → embedded PostgreSQL → instrumentation → Sentry.
- New `closeHttpListenerForShutdown()`: stops accepting requests, closes
idle keep-alive sockets, waits up to 5 s for open connections, then
closes whatever is left. Requests still in flight are drained while
every service is available, and none can reach a route after
`sql.end()`, on the signal path and the programmatic path alike (the
programmatic path's later `server.close` finds the listener closed and
skips).
- `server/src/app.ts`: the app shutdown hook (`shutdownAppServices`) now
stops the plugin job scheduler, whose tick queries the database, so a
programmatic `shutdown()` leaves no timer running against the ended
pool.
- `server/src/index.ts`
- `startServer()` is now a thin wrapper around the boot sequence. When
the boot sequence throws after the pool exists, the wrapper ends the
pool (and the separate migration pool, when configured) before it
rethrows. This covers the `process.exit(1)` path in the main module and
the CLI `paperclip run` path alike.
- The orderly shutdown passes the same `closeDatabaseClients` to
`finalizeServerShutdown`.
- `endDatabaseClient` tolerates a client without `$client` (test
doubles) and uses a 5 second end timeout.
- Docs: `docs/deploy/database.md` gets a "Connection Pool Settings"
table with every `DATABASE_*` pool variable, its default and its effect;
`doc/DATABASE.md` lists the two new variables.
- Tests
- `packages/db/src/client-options.test.ts`: parsing of the new
variables, `0` for the idle timeout, rejection of malformed values,
driver option mapping, and the `resolveDatabaseClientOptions` defaults.
- `packages/db/src/client.test.ts` (embedded PostgreSQL):
`createDb(url)` reports `application_name = paperclip` for its own
backend, and a pool with `idleTimeoutSeconds: 1` has zero backends in
`pg_stat_activity` after the timeout.
- `server/src/shutdown.test.ts`: the listener closes before the
application services, and the database close runs between the
application services and the embedded PostgreSQL stop; a failing
database close is logged while the teardown still finishes;
`closeHttpListenerForShutdown` closes idle sockets and resolves on
close, force-closes after the grace period, and is a no-op when the
listener was never bound.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck` — passes (`check:migrations`
+ `tsc --noEmit`).
- `cd server && pnpm typecheck` — passes.
- `cd packages/db && pnpm exec vitest run src/client-options.test.ts
src/client.test.ts src/client-teardown-registry.test.ts` — 9 + 18 + 3
tests pass (the `client.test.ts` cases need embedded PostgreSQL; the new
one waits up to 10 s for the idle reap and passed in about 3 s).
- `cd server && pnpm exec vitest run src/shutdown.test.ts
src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts
src/__tests__/bootstrap-claim-routes.test.ts` — 34 + 11 tests pass. The
startup-feedback suite exercises `startServer()` with a mocked
`createDb`, which is why `endDatabaseClient` tolerates a client without
`$client`.
- Manual check for a reviewer: start the server against any PostgreSQL,
then run `SELECT application_name, state, count(*) FROM pg_stat_activity
GROUP BY 1, 2;`. Paperclip's backends now show `paperclip`. Leave the
server idle for more than 60 s and the idle backends disappear. Send
SIGTERM and the backends close before the process exits.

## Risks

- Behavior change with no environment set: idle pooled connections now
close after 60 s. The next query after an idle period pays a reconnect
(single-digit milliseconds on a local socket). postgres.js reconnects
transparently. Set `DATABASE_IDLE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=0` to keep the
previous behavior.
- `application_name` changes from `postgres.js` to `paperclip`. Anything
that filtered `pg_stat_activity` on the old name would need an update;
nothing in this repo does.
- The HTTP listener now closes at the start of the final teardown (after
the heartbeat run drain, which still needs the API for running agents).
The pool close runs after the application services. A late query from a
timer that survived the service shutdown would fail with a driver
"connection ended" error instead of running; the known database-backed
timer (the plugin job scheduler) is now stopped in the service shutdown.
- The listener drain adds at most 5 s to a shutdown while long-lived
connections (for example WebSocket clients) are open; after that they
are closed forcibly.
- `startServer()` is split into a wrapper and the boot sequence. The
exported signature and return type are unchanged.
- No migration, no schema change.

## Model Used

- Claude Fable 5.1 (`claude-fable-5-1`) via Claude Code, extended
thinking, tool use (file edits, shell, test runs). The change was
produced with the model and reviewed by the submitting human.

DottaandPaperclip 0ffc091473 feat(connections): add durable GitHub identities and webhooks (#12843)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents need source control access for repository work
> - A shared token cannot preserve the responsible person's identity or
an agent's dedicated identity
> - GitHub App tokens also need durable refresh, repository access
checks, and webhook delivery
> - Paperclip already has managed connections, encrypted grants, run
secret leases, and merge-confirmation behavior
> - This pull request extends those systems with GitHub identities
instead of adding a parallel credential system
> - The benefit is durable GitHub access with explicit identity,
repository, runtime, and webhook boundaries

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue describes this connection change. This
description follows the feature request template.

**Subsystem affected**

Connected Apps, connection grants, secret resolution, native Git runtime
setup, webhook processing, and the Apps UI.

**Problem or motivation**

Users need to connect GitHub once and let agents use the correct GitHub
identity. A run should use a dedicated agent account when one exists.
Otherwise, it should use the responsible person's account. The
connection must survive token expiry, repository access changes, and
temporary instance downtime.

**Proposed solution**

Add user-owned and agent-owned GitHub grants to the existing connection
model. Resolve one identity for MCP, Git, `gh`, health checks, and
webhook bindings. Store provider tokens in the existing encrypted secret
system. Refresh expiring token pairs under the existing lease and
compare-and-swap path. Register signed Cloud webhook bindings and
process normalized pull request and installation events through a
durable local inbox.

**Alternatives considered**

An organization-wide GitHub token would lose person and agent
attribution. Environment variables alone would bypass the managed
connection and grant model. A new GitHub-only credential store would
duplicate the existing secret and access systems. GitHub App
installation tokens and private-key custody remain outside this first
version.

**Roadmap alignment**

This change implements the Connected Apps direction. It also extends the
shipped MCP Tool Gateway, per-agent secret access, and
action-attribution systems. It does not add a repository catalog. The
open repository catalog work in
[#11234](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/11234) is related
and complementary.

## What Changed

- Added agent-owned connection grants and a per-agent credential policy
with company and subject constraints.
- Added a managed GitHub App method while keeping the personal access
token method as an advanced fallback.
- Added durable access-token and refresh-token handling with proactive
rotation and one automatic recovery after a provider `401`.
- Added GitHub identity and installation summaries without storing
repository-name lists.
- Added signed Cloud webhook binding, event lease, acknowledgement,
local idempotency, pull request merge processing, and installation
access handling.
- Added one identity resolver for MCP, native Git, `gh`, checkout,
health checks, and webhook bindings.
- Added a class-3 run projection for `GH_TOKEN`, `GITHUB_TOKEN`, a
`github.com`-only credential helper, SSH-to-HTTPS rewrite, and GitHub
noreply commit attribution.
- Added personal and dedicated-agent setup choices plus identity,
repository, continuity, and webhook status in the Apps UI.
- Added schema migrations, tests, and connection documentation.

## Verification

- The current head is fully green in GitHub CI, including build,
typecheck, all serialized/general server shards, all browser shards,
policy, canary dry run, review, and security checks.
- Live staging proof completed with a non-expiring GitHub App user
token, selected-repository installation, repository add/remove refresh,
managed MCP, native `gh`, HTTPS clone/push/delete, GitHub noreply commit
attribution, signed merged-PR webhook acceptance, durable
Cloud-to-instance delivery, and installation-access event processing.
Temporary branches and temporary repository access were removed
afterward.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed before and after the rebase onto
`origin/master`.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- The focused connector suite passed 285 tests after the rebase.
- The full stable suite passed 5,790 tests and failed 22 tests across 8
general server files. The failures reproduced as shared-runner
environment issues. They included `/tmp` versus `/private/tmp`, closed
database connections, and invalid high ephemeral ports. The focused
connection tests pass in isolation.

## Risks

- Migrations add agent grant subjects and a durable connection-event
inbox. Migration numbering and safety checks pass.
- A raw GitHub user token enters the agent process for Git and `gh`.
Per-tool Ask-first controls cannot limit those shell operations. The UI
warns users about this boundary.
- GitHub App user tokens can be non-expiring. Paperclip performs a
continuity check every 30 days, but provider revocation still requires a
reconnect.
- The webhook path accepts only signed and bounded payloads. It stores a
minimal normalized record and no raw provider payload.
- GitHub repository permissions remain authoritative. Removed access can
make a cached repository count temporarily stale, but runtime access
fails immediately.

Dotta 7b094724e6 fix(runner): recover native sessions across restarts (#12845)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Paperclip Runner keeps durable run and provider state outside
one server process.
> - A server restart can leave that runner alive or can interrupt it
after a provider checkpoint.
> - The old startup path used handoff intent and PID evidence, but it
did not reconstruct native ownership.
> - That gap could block the issue, create a replacement run, or start
duplicate provider work.
> - This pull request adds durable same-run recovery for coordinated and
uncoordinated restarts.
> - The benefit is exact recovery of the run, runner, session, provider,
steering, and finalization state.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #9628. That pull request added earlier local-adapter hot-restart
work. This change adds native PRP authority reconstruction and same-run
provider resume.

Refs #10935. That pull request handles missing hot-restart snapshots.
This change also supports hard restarts with no snapshot.

Refs #11624. That pull request prevents unsafe retry after an adopted
legacy process exits. This change reconciles native terminal evidence
before provider recovery.

Refs #12070. That pull request improves process liveness checks. This
change also binds recovery to a process-start fingerprint and fails
closed on ambiguity.

**What happened?**

The server could record hot-restart intent, but startup did not rebuild
native runner ownership. A live runner could not re-register its PRP
authority. A dead runner could not resume the exact native and provider
session on the same heartbeat run. Generic recovery could then block the
issue or create replacement work.

**Expected behavior**

A live native runner must reconnect with the same PID and logical
identities. A dead runner must resume the same durable session and
heartbeat run with only a new operating-system PID. A proposed or
terminal result must finalize once before any provider turn starts.
Ambiguous process or session evidence must stay blocked without a signal
or duplicate spawn.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a Paperclip Runner heartbeat and wait for an active provider
turn.
2. Restart only the Paperclip server, with or without a hot-restart
marker.
3. Observe that the old startup path does not reconstruct the native
control-plane authority.
4. Kill both the server and runner after a provider checkpoint.
5. Observe that the old path cannot resume the exact native session on
the original heartbeat run.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The defect was reproduced from commit
`1991f31fd53e7f7794d5c2e4b93be384ade2b41d`. This branch is rebased onto
the current `master`.

**Deployment mode**

Local development and self-hosted server deployments that use the local
Paperclip Runner.

## What Changed

- Added correlated hot-restart requests and version-compatible native
handoff fields.
- Added controller boot identity, process-start identity, controller
generation, recovery state, request id, and bounded history to the
native finalization ledger.
- Added transactional recovery claims for live-runner reattach,
dead-runner resume, and incomplete bootstrap.
- Added fail-closed ownership takeover rules and process identity
validation.
- Added live runner adoption to the local runner transport without a
duplicate spawn.
- Added same-run provider checkpoint resume and legacy retry-row
compatibility.
- Reconciled proposed and terminal results before runner or provider
recovery.
- Bound the HTTP and PRP listener before startup recovery and delayed
scheduling and generic reapers until classification completes.
- Added restart-aware health diagnostics, run-log recovery transitions,
durable runner diagnostics, and bounded shutdown finalizer draining.
- Moved restart-survivable diagnostics into runner-owned, pre-redacted
bounded writes; raw stdout and stderr are never persisted.
- Added process-start fencing for controller, runner, and provider PIDs;
startup classifies every candidate without an implicit cap.
- Added crash-recoverable, contention-safe development restart-request
coordination and failed-startup listener cleanup.
- Added a credential-free real-process restart suite for eight restart,
scale, and identity scenarios.
- Documented native restart operation, persistence, diagnostics, and
verification.

## Verification

- The documented native restart commands passed. They ran eight
real-process/database recovery scenarios and the live runner adoption
transport test.
- Native executor tests passed: 111 tests.
- Heartbeat recovery tests passed: 124 tests.
- Hot restart, health, and shutdown tests passed: 52 tests.
- The broader affected server suite passed: 350 tests.
- Focused native recovery and startup tests passed: 49 tests.
- Runner transport and control-plane tests passed: 63 tests.
- Runner-owned diagnostic tests passed for write-time bounding,
credential redaction, private file modes, and raw stream
non-persistence.
- Development restart coordination tests passed: 11 tests.
- Database migration checks and the partial-application/replay
regression test passed.
- Server, database, and Paperclip Runner typechecks passed.
- `git diff --check` passed.
- Full Paperclip PR CI passed, including build, canary, all five general
server shards, all five serialized server shards, all three browser E2E
shards, workspace suites, and release-registry verification.
- Greptile completed at 5/5 with no outstanding findings,
recommendations, follow-ups, or open review threads.

## Risks

- Moderate risk. This changes startup ordering and ownership transfer
for active native runs.
- The migration adds nullable columns and does not rewrite existing
rows.
- Recovery fails closed when process or durable session identity is
incomplete or contradictory.
- The first implementation supports the local Paperclip Runner. Remote
targets keep their existing behavior.
- The real-process suite covers cleanup and asserts that no runner or
provider process survives each test.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex with GPT-5. The runtime did not expose a more specific
model revision or context-window size. Repository editing, shell
execution, database tests, and real-process test execution were enabled.

Devin Foley 174e35a144 fix(server): stop paging Sentry for supervised boot races in managed cloud (#12772)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The server refuses to boot when its database is not migrated, or
when an authenticated public deployment has no `DATABASE_URL`. These
refusals are deliberate and correct.
> - In managed cloud, a supervisor creates each stack, migrates its
fresh database, applies configuration, and restarts the app. The app
container often boots before those steps finish.
> - Each early boot hits one of the two refusals, exits, and captures
the refusal to Sentry. One fleet build batch produces hundreds of
identical expected events. Real errors get buried.
> - This pull request classifies exactly those two refusals as expected
transients when `PAPERCLIP_CLOUD_API_ORIGIN` marks a supervised
deployment, and skips only the Sentry capture for them.
> - The benefit is a clean error signal: expected provisioning noise
stops, and every real failure still reports.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A managed-cloud stack boots its app container before the supervisor
migrates the empty database or finishes applying configuration. The
container refuses to start, crash-loops briefly, and converges after the
supervisor restarts it. Every refused boot sends an error event to
Sentry. A batch of new stacks produces hundreds of these expected
events.

**Expected behavior**

The refusal logs and exits nonzero, so the supervisor can act. Sentry
receives no event for an expected provisioning transient. Sentry still
receives events for real failures: schema drift, malformed
configuration, and every refusal outside managed cloud.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Set `PAPERCLIP_MIGRATION_AUTO_APPLY=false`,
`PAPERCLIP_MIGRATION_PROMPT=never`, `SENTRY_DSN`, and
`PAPERCLIP_CLOUD_API_ORIGIN`.
2. Point `DATABASE_URL` at an empty database and start the server.
3. The server refuses to start. Before this change it also captures the
refusal to Sentry on every boot.

**Deployment mode**

Authenticated public (managed cloud).

## What Changed

- New `server/src/startup-refusals.ts`: a `StartupRefusalError` class
for refusals whose remedy belongs to the deployment supervisor,
`migrationRefusalError()` to classify a pending-migrations refusal (zero
applied migrations = never migrated = supervised transient; any applied
history = drift = plain always-reported `Error`), and
`shouldReportStartupFailure()` for the capture decision.
- `server/src/index.ts`: the pending-migrations refusal uses the
classifier; the missing-`DATABASE_URL` refusal under the
authenticated-public contract becomes a `StartupRefusalError` (the
malformed-URL refusal stays a plain `Error`); the startup crash handler
consults `shouldReportStartupFailure()` before `captureException`.
Logging and the nonzero exit are unchanged.
- New `server/src/__tests__/startup-refusals.test.ts` covering the
classification and decision matrix, including the unchanged self-hosted
paths.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run src/__tests__/startup-refusals.test.ts` — 7 passed.
- Review the decision matrix in the test file: refusals report when
`PAPERCLIP_CLOUD_API_ORIGIN` is absent or blank; non-refusal errors and
non-`Error` throwables always report; drift always reports.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change only skips a Sentry capture in one narrow,
marker-gated case. Boot behavior, logging, and the exit code do not
change.
- Self-hosted deployments do not set `PAPERCLIP_CLOUD_API_ORIGIN`, so
their reporting is unchanged, and the tests pin that.
- A supervised deployment with a genuinely stuck migration runner loses
per-boot Sentry events for that stack. The supervisor's own health
checks and monitoring own that signal, and the container logs still
carry the refusal.

DottaandPaperclip 141f202e40 Clean up experimental settings features (#12681)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app that people use to manage AI agents
for work.
> - Instance settings control optional product features and developer
tools.
> - The experimental settings page mixed active experiments, internal
tools, and old recovery controls.
> - Some workspace links also used the selected company instead of the
workspace owner.
> - These problems made settings hard to scan and could send users to
the wrong company route.
> - This pull request removes old controls, groups developer settings,
and resolves workspace links from workspace data.
> - The benefit is a smaller settings surface and correct workspace
navigation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

This improves the instance experimental settings page, task watchdog
controls, dependency wake recovery, and execution workspace routes.

**Current behavior**

The settings page shows old recovery controls and mixes product
experiments with internal developer settings. Task watchdogs require an
extra feature flag. Some direct workspace links use the current company
prefix instead of the company that owns the workspace.

**Proposed behavior**

Remove the old task recovery experiment and its unused API surface. Make
task watchdog controls available without the removed flag. Put worktree
execution and managed environment controls in the developer section.
Resolve direct workspace links from the workspace owner and reject a
company prefix that does not own the workspace.

**Reason and benefit**

The smaller settings page is easier to understand. The server keeps only
the dependency wake backstop that it still uses. Workspace links open
under the correct company route.

**Breaking changes**

This removes the experimental issue graph recovery preview and run
endpoints. It also removes the task watchdog feature flag. Task watchdog
data and dependency wake behavior remain available.

## What Changed

- Removed the old task watchdog and issue graph recovery feature flags.
- Removed the old issue graph recovery preview, run controls, API
contracts, and unused recovery implementation.
- Kept resolved dependency wakes as the scheduler backstop.
- Grouped product experiments and Paperclip developer settings on the
instance settings page.
- Made task watchdog controls available without an extra experimental
flag.
- Added owner-aware redirects and company checks for execution workspace
routes.
- Hid the false stopped-state badge while a workspace has no active
runtime state.
- Updated focused server and UI tests for the new behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- `pnpm test:run` completed with 5,620 passing tests and four failures
in unchanged workspace runtime port tests. The same four failures repeat
when the two files run alone.
- The complete GitHub CI matrix passed, including all server, serialized
server, build, canary, and end-to-end jobs.

## Risks

- Clients that call the removed experimental recovery endpoints must
stop calling them.
- The route checks depend on workspace detail access. An unknown or
cross-company workspace returns the global not-found page.
- There are no database migrations, lockfile changes, workflow changes,
or design image changes.

Dotta bc9ba7cd26 feat(runner): project native runs into task threads (#12321)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The experimental Paperclip Runner can execute a guarded Codex run
and persist provider-neutral events.
> - The task page still reads direct-adapter transcripts and cannot
present those native events.
> - Structured runner questions must also use the existing task
interaction experience.
> - Runtime selection must use the persisted run mode, not an adapter
name or a current feature flag.
> - This pull request projects native events and questions into the
existing task thread.
> - Direct adapters keep their existing transcript, composer,
interaction, and finalization paths.
> - The benefit is a complete native Codex task thread without a
behavior change for existing adapters.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #12202. This pull request replaces that stale implementation on
current `master`.

**What happened?**

The server persists native runner events and structured input requests.
The task page only consumes direct-adapter transcripts. A native run
therefore cannot present a complete transcript, usage, or question flow
through the normal task experience.

**Expected behavior**

Native runs project persisted provider-neutral events into the existing
task thread. Native structured questions use the existing interaction
card. Direct adapters retain their current behavior.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Enable the experimental runner.
2. Start a native Codex run that emits progress, usage, a structured
question, and a final reply.
3. Open the task page.
4. Observe that the direct-adapter transcript path cannot project the
native event records.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`master` at `67f9867bc`.

## What Changed

- Add the canonical structured-question validator and shared contract
exports.
- Materialize native input requests as existing task interactions.
- Validate native answers and deliver them through the durable
question-response receipt.
- Resume the original PRP request with an idempotent `request.resolve`
command.
- Project native messages, tool activity, cumulative usage, and final
replies into the existing transcript model.
- Propagate persisted `runtimeMode` to the task page and select native
handling only for `runtimeMode: "native"`.
- Expire pending interactions through the shared issue service on every
terminal transition, including decisions, stalled reviews, tree control,
and pipeline retry cleanup.
- Queue native run cancellation while a transaction is open and execute
it only after the owning transaction commits.
- Keep nonterminal and non-runner issue paths on their existing service
call shapes and behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed, including the
Rust runner release build and protocol/catalog drift gates.
- Focused native-thread and lifecycle suites — 18 files and 481 tests
passed during review.
- `issue-execution-policy-routes.test.ts` — 19/19 passed after the final
transactional-queue expectation update.
- `issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts` — 87/87 passed in the
final isolated compatibility rerun.
- GitHub Actions — policy, build, canary, typecheck/release registry, 5
serialized server shards, 8 general-test shards, 3 browser shards, and
both aggregate gates passed on `7793f3193`.
- Security — Snyk, Socket Project Report, Socket PR Alerts, and
Superagent passed.
- Greptile — 5/5 on `7793f3193`; all actionable review threads resolved.
- `git diff --check` — passed.
- Diff against `master`: 44 files.

## Compatibility Boundary

- Native transcript polling only runs when the persisted run reports
`runtimeMode: "native"`.
- Missing or legacy runtime modes continue through
`useLiveRunTranscripts`.
- Legacy questions keep the existing optional free-text choice.
- Native closed select sets can suppress that legacy fallback.
- Terminal cleanup uses the same issue service for native and legacy
interactions; only a bound native question schedules a native run
cancellation.
- Native cancellation happens after transaction commit, so failed or
rolled-back writes do not cancel a still-valid run.
- The durable delivery service checks the original native request before
it considers a continuation run.
- This pull request adds no migration, dependency, workflow, manifest,
or lockfile change.

## Risks

The main risk is routing a direct-adapter task through native handling
or changing terminal issue behavior. The implementation selects the
native path only from persisted runtime facts, retains the existing
nonterminal call shape, and schedules native cancellation only for a
validated bound native question after commit. Focused and
repository-wide tests cover both paths. Native requests remain bound to
the company, issue, run, and agent; answers are validated, durable, and
idempotent across reconnects.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5 family. The client does not expose the exact
deployment ID or context window. Agentic reasoning, tool use, and code
execution were enabled.

DottaandPaperclip b51112798f feat(apps): improve gateway and workspace connection UX (#12340)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - App connections must work in both the operator UI and agent tool
gateway.
> - The first stack layer adds secure remote connections.
> - Operators still need clear setup, test, and recovery states.
> - This pull request adds the gateway behavior and the workspace
connection experience.
> - The benefit is a connection flow that is easier to understand and
recover.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #11965

This is stack 2 of 11. It depends on stack 1 and replaces another
reviewable part of #11965.

## What Changed

- Improve remote tool gateway connection behavior.
- Add clearer app setup, test, and recovery states.
- Add focused server and UI tests for the new paths.
- Keep the diff isolated from later identity and catalog work.
- Stabilize DNS-pinned remote HTTP protocol fixtures and the
managed-runtime public-origin fixture for this independently tested
layer.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts` (150 passed)
- `pnpm test:run`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- `pnpm build`

## Risks

- Gateway errors now surface through new user-facing states.
- A stale connection can require a new setup attempt.
- The change does not add a database migration.
- The injected HTTP transport and public URL are test-only fixtures;
production DNS pinning and runtime behavior are unchanged.

> I checked `ROADMAP.md`. This stack continues the existing app
connection work from #11965 and does not duplicate another planned item.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip a20a4944ec feat: add Grok device login to the sandbox login panel (#12469)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Paperclip uses adapters to connect agents and model providers to its
control plane
> - The sandbox login panel supports displayed-code login for selected
adapters
> - Grok users need the same login path and a private credential home
for later runs
> - This pull request adds Grok support to the shared device-login path
and preserves the existing Codex path
> - The benefit is one secure login flow for both adapters with
company-scoped credential storage

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Agent or provider**

Grok Local needs displayed-code login support in the sandbox login
panel.

**Why this adapter is useful**

This change lets users sign in to Grok from the sandbox login panel. It
also gives later Grok runs access to the stored credential.

**How the agent is invoked**

The Grok local adapter uses its login command through the shared
displayed-code login flow. Later runs receive the managed home through
`GROK_HOME`.

**Additional context**

The change uses adapter-scoped login lifecycle handling. It stores the
credential in a company-scoped directory with mode `0700`, and it stores
the credential file with mode `0600`.

## What Changed

- Rename the shared device-login modules to adapter-neutral names.
- Scope the shared login lifecycle to a closed adapter set.
- Return the device-login URL that the provider prints.
- Add the Grok prompt parser, login command, capability, and login panel
entry.
- Store the Grok credential in a private, company-scoped home directory.
- Pass `GROK_HOME` to later Grok runs.
- Add tests for the Grok adapter, the Daytona sandbox provider, the
server login path, and the user interface.

## Verification

- Run `pnpm vitest run
packages/adapters/grok-local/src/server/adapter-auth-promotion.test.ts`.
- Run the Grok adapter package suite.
- Run the Daytona sandbox provider suite.
- Run the server device-login suites.
- Run the user interface suite.
- Confirm the full CI suite passes.

## Risks

The change extends shared login lifecycle code to another adapter. A
regression could affect Codex login. The credential path uses explicit
`chmod` calls to keep the directory at mode `0700` and the file at mode
`0600`.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5. The runtime used tool calls and code review
support. The runtime did not provide a context-window value.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 64b7dce0ad refactor(adapter-utils): replace the process-wide byte ledger with route-local byte bounds (#12465)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The adapter layer carries sandbox requests to host processes.
> - The HTTP/2 bridge used one process-wide byte ledger for all routes.
> - One busy route could exhaust that shared budget and move another
route to file transport.
> - This pull request gives each host retention site a fixed byte bound
and limits concurrent HTTP/2 streams.
> - The benefit is local protection: one route cannot consume the byte
budget of another route.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The HTTP/2 bridge used one aggregate byte ledger for retained bytes
across all routes. A busy route could exhaust the shared budget and
force an unrelated route to use file transport.

**Expected behavior**

Each route should protect its own retained bytes. A reset on one HTTP/2
stream should cancel only that stream's host forward.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start the HTTP/2 bridge with multiple sandbox routes.
2. Send enough retained data through one route to reach the aggregate
byte limit.
3. Send a request through a sibling route.
4. Observe that the sibling route can fall back to file transport
because the first route used the shared ledger.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`47639e227e78e3c5e0dd1a3c0e2d792fe86895a3`

**Deployment mode**

Built from source with the adapter-utils and server test suites.

## What Changed

- Bound each host retention site with a fixed local byte limit.
- Limited concurrent live HTTP/2 streams with one built-in stream limit.
- Bound each host forward and response-body read to its own HTTP/2
stream lifetime.
- Removed the process-wide byte ledger, its environment override, its
metrics, and its file-transport fallbacks.
- Added tests for the stream limit, host body budget, and sibling-stream
cancellation.

## Verification

- Run `pnpm vitest run --project adapter-utils`.
- Confirm that 996 adapter-utils tests pass.
- Confirm that `test_live_forward_work_never_passes_the_stream_limit`
passes.
- Confirm that `test_the_host_body_budget_matches_the_stream_limit`
passes.
- Confirm that the sibling-stream cancellation test passes.
- Run `pnpm tsc --noEmit`.
- Confirm that all pull request checks pass.

## Risks

The bridge no longer uses a process-wide byte ledger. A local bound or
stream limit that is too low can reject or delay valid work. The tests
cover the new limits and stream cancellation behavior.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5 Codex. Runtime model ID: GPT-5. The model used code
execution and repository tools. The runtime does not expose the context
window size.

Devin Foley 8f195c2f49 Let operators supply defaults for selected instance settings (#12285)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Hosting operators (a managed cloud, an internal shared server) tune
the settings surface with `PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS`, but hiding a
control never changes its value
> - An instance whose stored feedback-sharing preference is still the
schema default ("prompt") keeps prompting users even when the operator
hid the control, leaving them no way to answer
> - More generally, operators have no supported way to change what a
setting defaults to without patching code
> - This pull request adds `PAPERCLIP_SETTING_DEFAULTS`, a generic
operator-supplied read-time default overlay for registry-listed general
settings
> - The benefit is that any hosting operator can pair "hide the control"
with "default the value", while explicit user choices and self-hosted
stock behavior stay untouched

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists; following the enhancement template:

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Hosting operators need to supply the default value of selected instance
settings (first: `feedbackDataSharingPreference`) via configuration,
without patching code and without a hard-coded, opinionated constant in
the product.

**Subsystem affected**
Server (instance-settings service, feedback service, boot) and
`packages/shared` (settings schemas).

**Current behavior**
Setting defaults are fixed in the shared zod schemas.
`PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS` can hide the feedback-sharing control and
floor writes, but the stored value stays "prompt", so issue-chat
surfaces keep prompting with no way to answer.

**Proposed behavior**
`PAPERCLIP_SETTING_DEFAULTS` takes a JSON object validated against a
shared registry of defaultable fields. The operator value substitutes
for the schema default at read time: a field whose effective value is
still the schema default resolves to the operator value; an explicit
non-default user choice always wins. Never persisted; unsetting the
variable restores stock behavior. Malformed JSON or an invalid value for
a known field refuses startup (fail closed); unknown field names warn
and are ignored (mixed-version fleet safe).

**Reason and benefit**
Any hosting operator can pair "hide the control" with "default the
value" without forking the product. Explicit user choices and
self-hosted stock behavior stay untouched.

**Breaking changes**
None. With the variable unset, every read path is byte-identical to
before.

## What Changed

- New `packages/shared/src/setting-defaults.ts`:
`SETTING_DEFAULTS_ENV_KEY`, `DEFAULTABLE_GENERAL_SETTINGS` registry
(currently `feedbackDataSharingPreference`), `parseSettingDefaults`
(fail-closed for policy content, warn-ignore unknown fields),
`applyOperatorGeneralDefaults` (pure read-time overlay),
`stripOperatorGeneralEchoes` (persist-time echo strip, see below),
re-exported from the package index.
- New `server/src/services/setting-defaults.ts`: parse-once accessor
mirroring `settings-visibility.ts`.
- `server/src/services/instance-settings.ts`: `toGeneralView` applies
the overlay in `get`/`getGeneral`/update responses; persisted writes
never carry operator values. Because general-settings writes materialize
every field, a stored schema-default value is treated as unchosen —
deliberate, documented, and covered by tests.
- `server/src/services/feedback.ts`: the preference-persistence branch
now checks the effective (overlaid) preference, so a stray prompt answer
cannot overwrite an operator default; its local normalize fallback now
returns full schema defaults.
- `server/src/index.ts`: boot-time fail-fast parse with a log line
naming the defaulted settings, mirroring the managed-config posture.
- The hidden-settings write floor (`assertNoHiddenSettingChanges`) keeps
comparing against effective values, so clients echoing a full GET
response keep working. To keep the overlay strictly read-time,
`updateGeneral` strips such echoes at persist time: a write of the
operator value over a field whose stored value is still the schema
default (unchosen) maps back to the schema default, so an echo cannot
promote the operator value into an explicit stored choice and later
changes to (or removal of) `PAPERCLIP_SETTING_DEFAULTS` still take
effect. A write of any other value, or over an explicit stored choice,
persists as given.
- Docs: `PAPERCLIP_SETTING_DEFAULTS` row + "Operator setting defaults"
section in `docs/deploy/environment-variables.md`.
- Tests: `packages/shared/src/setting-defaults.test.ts` (parse matrix,
overlay precedence, echo-strip matrix, immutability) and
`server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-operator-defaults.test.ts`
(accessor, substitution, explicit-choice wins, unset identity,
never-persisted, full-GET echo stays unchosen, explicit non-default
write persists).

## Verification

- `npx vitest run packages/shared/src/setting-defaults.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-operator-defaults.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-managed-overlay.test.ts` — 33
tests passing.
- `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-service.test.ts` — 57 passing;
`npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/feedback-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-feedback-routes.test.ts` — 18 passing.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` and `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck` — clean.

## Risks

- Low. With the variable unset every read path is byte-identical to
before (identity overlay, covered by tests). The overlay is read-time
only and never persisted, so no migration and no data risk. Fail-closed
parsing means a bad policy value is a loud boot failure rather than
silent drift — consistent with the existing managed-config contract.

Claude (Anthropic), model id `claude-fable-5`, extended thinking,
agentic tool use via Claude Code.

Dotta 67f9867bc6 fix(interactions): deliver question answers durably (#12307)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents can pause a task and ask the user structured questions.
> - The answer is durable in the issue interaction, but delivery to the
next run is not durable.
> - A process restart can therefore leave an answered interaction
without a continuation attempt.
> - Native runners also need a provider-neutral question contract before
the task page can consume native events safely.
> - This pull request adds a content-free delivery outbox and an
optional native steering seam.
> - Direct adapters keep their existing heartbeat continuation path.
> - The benefit is reliable answer delivery without changing runtime
selection or task-page behavior.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #12202. This pull request replaces the question-delivery foundation
from that stale task-thread pull request. The task-thread projection
will follow in a smaller pull request.

**What happened?**

Question answers were stored in the issue interaction. The server then
made one in-memory continuation wake. A server stop between those
operations could leave the answer stored but not delivered. The combined
native task-thread pull request also made this behavior hard to review
separately from UI changes.

**Expected behavior**

The answer and its delivery receipt must commit in one transaction. The
server must retry pending receipts after a restart. Existing direct
adapters must keep the current wake path. A native runtime may use the
optional steering seam, but this pull request does not enable native
steering in production.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create an `ask_user_questions` interaction.
2. Answer the interaction.
3. Stop the server before the continuation wake completes.
4. Start the server again.
5. On current master, no durable record tells the server to retry the
answer delivery.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Current `master` at `4d82f5eae`.

## What Changed

- Add the `issue_question_response_deliveries` table and migration.
- Store only routing state, a correlation ID, and a payload digest in
the delivery row. The answer remains in the existing interaction result.
- Commit an answered interaction and its pending delivery row in one
transaction.
- Add bounded claims, retry recovery, cumulative terminal state, and
content-free activity records.
- Keep every built-in direct adapter and external adapter on the
existing heartbeat wake path.
- Add an optional native steering seam. No production caller supplies
that seam in this pull request.
- Retain the provider-neutral `paperclip.question_set.v1` presentation
on recovered interactions.
- Run delivery immediately after an answer and sweep pending rows at
startup and on the existing server interval.
- Add focused database, service, route, startup, adapter-matrix, digest,
and duplicate-delivery tests.

## Compatibility Boundary

- This pull request does not change adapter selection.
- This pull request does not start runnerd.
- This pull request does not create native run records.
- Direct adapters never call the native steering seam.
- The existing interaction result stays authoritative for answer
content.
- The migration is additive and does not rewrite existing rows.
- This pull request has no UI, dependency, workflow, package-manager, or
lockfile changes.
- The diff has 19 files.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/question-response-delivery.test.ts
server/src/services/issue-thread-interactions.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interaction-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts` — 4 files
and 120 tests passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` — passed for all applicable workspaces. This
includes Cargo format and check, protocol drift checks, and migration
safety.
- `pnpm build` — passed. This includes the Rust release binary, server
build, and UI production build.
- `git diff --check` — passed.
- Secret patterns were not present in the changed text files.
- The repository token gates currently report violations from unchanged
files on `master`. This pull request does not change those files.

## Risks

The main risk is routing a direct-adapter answer into a native session.
The service checks the persisted runtime mode, and the adapter matrix
proves that all direct adapters use only the existing wake path. The new
table is additive. It has foreign keys, unique correlation constraints,
bounded attempts, and status checks. Activity records omit question and
answer content.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5 family. The client does not expose the exact
deployment ID or context window. Agentic reasoning, tool use, and code
execution were enabled.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 8f1e3cfe24 feat(observability): add opt-in Sentry error monitoring for the server and the browser (#12190)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The server and the browser need clear error reports when an operator
enables external monitoring.
> - Paperclip already uses an opt-in OpenTelemetry pattern for server
traces.
> - Sentry can provide error reports for both runtime paths when the
operator sets one data source name.
> - This pull request adds one opt-in Sentry gate for the server and the
browser.
> - The benefit is faster diagnosis while the default setup sends no
Sentry data.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What is improved?**

Paperclip gains optional error monitoring for server and browser
failures.

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting (server, UI, and shared authentication data).

**Current behavior**

Paperclip has no built-in Sentry error capture for server failures or
browser boundary failures. Operators must inspect local logs and browser
tools.

**Proposed behavior**

When the operator sets `SENTRY_DSN`, the server and authenticated
browser use the same Sentry project. When the variable is absent, both
paths stay inactive. The server loads Sentry dynamically and fails open
when the optional package is absent.

**Reason and benefit**

Operators can inspect runtime errors in one Sentry project. The default
setup remains local and sends no monitoring data.

**Breaking changes**

None when `SENTRY_DSN` remains unset. Authenticated session responses
add the optional `sentryDsn` field.

**Additional context**

The implementation uses built-in Sentry privacy options. It disables
default HTTP context and breadcrumb integrations and keeps
`sendDefaultPii` false.

## What Changed

- Add an opt-in server Sentry gate with dynamic package loading and
fail-open behavior.
- Add the Sentry data source name to the authenticated session response.
- Add an authenticated browser Sentry gate and React error boundary
capture.
- Add tests for server, browser, route, and application error paths.
- Document activation, installation, privacy settings, capture behavior,
and operator controls.

## Verification

- Run `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/sentry.test.ts`.
- Run `npx vitest run ui/src/lib/sentry.test.ts`.
- Run `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/auth-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/shutdown.test.ts`.
- Confirm that the full continuous integration suite passes on this pull
request.
- Leave `SENTRY_DSN` unset and confirm that the server and browser gates
stay inactive.
- Set `SENTRY_DSN` and install the optional Sentry packages before a
manual capture check.

## Risks

The operator controls the Sentry project and accepts the data risk when
the operator enables the feature. Error objects can contain messages,
stacks, or cause chains with private values. The default configuration
sends no data because the feature stays off without `SENTRY_DSN`. A
missing optional server package does not stop server boot.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, with tool use, repository inspection, GitHub CLI
operations, and code review support.

Dotta 9964b034bb feat(runner): add hidden server PRP coordinator (#12176)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Paperclip Runner needs a narrow server trust boundary before an
adapter can start it.
> - The package has durable runner transport, but the server does not
host or authorize that transport.
> - Native persistence exists, but no writer connects PRP events to
those records.
> - A direct adapter must not enter this path by accident.
> - This pull request adds a hidden, run-bound PRP server coordinator.
> - The benefit is a recoverable server boundary that remains
unavailable to normal execution.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #11962

Refs #12129

Refs #12169

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting. The change affects the runner package and server
orchestration.

**Problem or motivation**

The server cannot authenticate runnerd, commit PRP events before ACK,
authorize semantic tools, or enter native finalization from a durable
runner result. The application must have this hidden boundary before a
guarded adapter can use the runner.

**Proposed solution**

Add an authenticated PRP WebSocket authority and register it only for
one exact persisted native Codex run. Bind each connection and event to
the company, issue, agent, run, runner, session, turn, item, and
verified runner identity. Commit each event before its cumulative ACK.
Project only authorized same-task read tools. Rebuild the accepted
result and finalization record from durable result and terminal events.

**Alternatives considered**

The server could expose a broad runner API key or route semantic calls
through existing adapter endpoints. Those options grant too much
authority and weaken replay recovery. The server could also add the
user-facing adapter in this pull request. That option would mix rollout
selection with the transport trust boundary and make legacy
compatibility harder to review.

**Roadmap alignment**

This work supports the shipped enforced-outcomes, governed-tool, and
self-healing-run milestones. It does not add a new roadmap surface.

## What Changed

- Add the durable PRP server authority with one-use bootstrap tickets,
reconnect leases, encrypted frames, bounded state, cumulative ACKs, and
idempotent commands.
- Add `/api/runner/v1/connect/:runId`. Derive its `ws://` or `wss://`
URL from the configured Paperclip API URL.
- Register one authority only after the coordinator verifies the
complete native Codex run binding.
- Commit validated PRP events to `heartbeat_run_events` before ACK.
Reject source gaps and conflicting replays.
- Rebuild accepted results and finalization records from durable result
and terminal events. Enforce finalization owner leases and retry times.
- Project five same-task read operations. Recheck run, agent, task, and
company authority for each call.
- Keep the route hidden. No adapter selects this coordinator, and no
code starts runnerd.
- Vendor the compiled runner TypeScript runtime into the server package
while keeping the workspace package development-only for the server.
- Document the package, database writer, run-log payload, and credential
exclusions.

## Verification

- Run `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner check:all`. All
TypeScript protocol checks and 69 Vitest tests pass, including
commit-before-ACK crash recovery. All 43 Rust unit tests and 13 Rust
integration tests pass. Conformance and replay parity pass.
- Run the focused server WebSocket, coordinator, package-build, and
startup-wiring suites. All 26 tests pass, including a clean-checkout
reproduction with the runner `dist` directory absent.
- Run `pnpm -r typecheck`.
- Run `pnpm test:run`.
- Run `pnpm build`.
- Confirm that the diff contains 19 files. Confirm that it contains no
workflow or `pnpm-lock.yaml` change.

## Risks

- The server installs the WebSocket route at startup. An unregistered or
malformed run path fails closed and creates no native record.
- Bootstrap tickets are one use. The private state directory uses mode
`0700`, and the state file uses mode `0600`. The file stores derived
authentication verifiers and never stores raw tickets or lease tokens.
- The journal has explicit frame, command, event-window, and file-size
bounds. A bound violation closes the runner connection or rejects the
command.
- A runner event reaches the database before its ACK. A crash between
event commit and ACK causes a byte-equivalent replay, not a second
logical effect.
- The coordinator accepts only an existing queued or running native
Codex row with exact company, task, agent, runner, session, and
completion-contract ownership.
- Existing direct adapters do not call this service. They keep their
current execution, transcript, result, and finalization paths.
- The server has no production dependency on the private runner package.
Its build copies the compiled runtime into `server/dist`; the workspace

Nicky LeachandPaperclip d1573244b5 refactor: disambiguate the Telemetry and Observability data paths (#12128)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Paperclip records first-party events, OpenTelemetry data, and local
run-log events
> - The code and documents used one term for these three data paths
> - This naming made the required review level unclear
> - This pull request names each data path in the module names,
documents, and code comments
> - The benefit is a clear review rule without a runtime change

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Issue type**

Unclear or confusing.

**Where is the issue?**

`packages/shared/src/telemetry/README.md`, `doc/observability.md`,
`doc/run-log-events.md`, and the duplex instrumentation modules.

**What's wrong?**

The repository used Telemetry for first-party events, OpenTelemetry
data, and local run-log events. This usage made the data path and review
level unclear.

**Suggested fix**

Use Telemetry only for Paperclip first-party events. Use Observability
for OpenTelemetry data. Use the run log for rows in
`heartbeat_run_events`.

Related public pull requests: #8476 and #9672.

## What Changed

- Rename the duplex instrumentation modules and identifiers from
`Telemetry` to `Observability`.
- Move the Observability and run-log contracts out of the Telemetry
README.
- Add `doc/observability.md` and `doc/run-log-events.md` as the
canonical documents.
- Add a file-path review rule to `AGENTS.md`.
- Correct the remaining code comments that name the wrong data path.
- Keep all event names, payloads, database records, spans, configuration
keys, environment variables, and runtime paths unchanged.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run packages/shared/src/telemetry/readme-contract.test.ts`
passes.
- `npx vitest run packages/adapter-utils/src/published-exports.test.ts`
passes.
- `npx vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/acpx-engine/startup-timing.test.ts` passes
with 42 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck` passes.
- `pnpm --filter server typecheck` passes.
- The old module name does not remain in TypeScript or JSON files,
except for the intentional publication guard.
- CI and Greptile checks remain pending after PR creation.

## Risks

- The old duplex module subpath no longer has a compatibility shim. The
board accepted this intentional hard break.
- The new duplex module subpath stays blocked from package publication.
- The change has no runtime effect. The main risk is an incorrect
document or module reference.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5 Codex, exact model ID `gpt-5`, with tool use and code
review support.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 05b35d4669 feat(duplex): bound aggregate duplex route resource consumption with a process-owned byte ledger (#12003)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip runs AI agents through adapters and sandboxed execution
targets.
> - Duplex routes retain bytes across route data, broker messages,
decoder buffers, and readiness replay.
> - Per-route limits bound each route but do not bound the total
retained bytes across many routes.
> - A process-owned ledger must charge each retained buffer before
allocation and release the charge during cleanup.
> - This pull request adds the aggregate ledger, connects it to host and
sandbox duplex paths, and adds route coverage.
> - The benefit is a fail-closed process-wide byte limit that keeps
concurrent duplex work within a safe resource budget.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

This change affects packages/adapter-utils and server duplex
orchestration.

**Problem or motivation**

Many routes can each stay below their per-route limits while their
combined retained bytes exceed a safe process budget.

**Proposed solution**

Add a process-owned aggregate byte ledger. Charge route data, broker
bytes, decoder buffers, and readiness replay bytes before allocation.
Release each charge during cleanup. Use a separate sandbox_process
decoder cap for the in-sandbox path.

**Alternatives considered**

Keep only per-route limits. This does not bound the combined process
use. Set a fixed limit at one call site. This misses retained bytes in
other duplex paths.

**Roadmap alignment**

This is a tightly scoped reliability and resource-safety improvement. It
does not duplicate a roadmap feature.

**Additional context**

The aggregate ceiling uses a safe 256 MiB default. An invalid override
falls back to that default and reports the rejected value.

## What Changed

- Add a process-owned aggregate byte ledger for duplex route resource
use.
- Charge and release route data, broker forward and response bytes,
decoder buffers, and readiness replay bytes.
- Bound host-to-worker pending writes and standard input transport
bytes.
- Add a separate decoder cap for the sandbox_process path.
- Make invalid aggregate-ceiling overrides fall back to the safe default
without host startup failure.
- Add adapter-utils and server tests for charging, release, rejection,
cleanup, and many-route aggregate limits.

## Verification

- pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils exec tsc --noEmit
- pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsc --noEmit
- Run the focused adapter-utils duplex ledger and execution-target
tests.
- Run the server aggregate-ledger route test.
- Confirm all required pull request checks pass on this branch.

## Risks

The ledger touches several duplex buffer paths. A missed release could
reduce later capacity until process restart. The tests cover charge,
release, rejection, cleanup, and route aggregation. The change uses a
safe default when configuration input is invalid.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5 Codex. The runtime model ID and context window are not
exposed to this task. The model used tool calls, shell commands, and
code review workflow support.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 38d8f37172 fix(build): enforce Node 24 across Paperclip (#11792)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Paperclip runs across the CLI, server, adapters, plugins, CI, and
container images.
> - These surfaces declared different Node.js versions from 20 through
24.
> - A newer `@types/node` major can expose APIs that the supported
runtime does not provide.
> - Node.js 20 is no longer a suitable project baseline, and Node.js 24
is the current LTS line.
> - This pull request sets Node.js 24.11.0 as one repository-wide
baseline, adds a drift check, and gives users actionable startup
guidance when their runtime is too old.
> - The benefit is one clear runtime contract for development, release,
installation, and published packages.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #2734

Refs #11727

Refs #739

## What Changed

- Require Node.js 24.11.0 or newer in all 42 package manifests and
runtime checks.
- Use Node.js 24 in GitHub Actions, Docker images, smoke images, sandbox
setup, portable installs, and esbuild targets.
- Align every direct `@types/node` declaration on `^24.0.0`.
- Prevent Dependabot from opening major `@types/node` upgrades without a
matching runtime decision.
- Add `.nvmrc` and a CI policy check for Node version drift.
- Update ACP version gates, tests, and user documentation for the new
minimum.
- Print a non-blocking warning on CLI and server startup when Node is
unsupported, with remediation through a version manager or the
documented downloaded `install.sh` workflow.
- Deduplicate that warning when `paperclipai run` boots the CLI and
server in the same process.

## Verification

- `node scripts/check-node-version-policy.mjs`
- `node --check scripts/check-node-version-policy.mjs`
- `node --check cli/esbuild.config.mjs`
- `node --check scripts/generate-npm-package-json.mjs`
- `bash -n scripts/install.sh scripts/test-install-sh-docker.sh
scripts/e2e-install-lifecycle.sh`
- Parsed all 42 package manifests and confirmed `engines.node` is
`>=24.11.0`.
- `git diff --check`
- `vitest run
packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-install-command.test.ts` passed with
3 tests.
- `vitest run cli/src/node-version.test.ts` passed with 4 tests.
- Directly exercised the shared warning helper for unsupported-version
messaging and same-process deduplication.
- The focused exe.dev suite could not resolve the locally unbuilt plugin
SDK from this isolated worktree. A full offline workspace install was
also blocked because the package-manager signature verifier requires
registry access. The full suite was not run locally; draft CI performs a
clean install and evaluates the wider impact.

## Risks

- This is a breaking runtime change for users, plugins, and deployments
that still use Node.js 20 or 22.
- Published workspace packages will now produce an engine warning or
failure in strict package managers on older Node.js releases.
- Node.js 24 can reveal dependency, native module, Playwright, or agent
CLI compatibility issues in CI.
- The bootstrap installer now installs Node.js 24 when the current
runtime is older than 24.11.0.
- The portable sandbox fallback is pinned to Node.js 24.11.0 and depends
on that upstream tarball remaining available.
- Unsupported runtimes continue booting after a warning, so a later
incompatibility can still fail at its point of use.
- The CLI and server share the warning policy through the published
`@paperclipai/shared` package; packaging checks must keep that subpath
export available.
- This PR does not commit `pnpm-lock.yaml` because repository policy
assigns lockfile generation to CI.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip e0b64529b3 feat(auth): normalize agent login in the sandbox onto one session table and a capability contract (#11730)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Sandbox agents need a safe login path for each supported adapter
> - Codex device login and Claude setup-token login used separate
session stores and route logic
> - Separate stores made session lookup, expiry, and login capability
checks harder to keep consistent
> - This pull request unifies both flows on one session table and one
capability contract
> - The benefit is one company-scoped login model with public session
identifiers and shared lifecycle rules

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting (multiple of the above)

**Problem or motivation**

Codex and Claude sandbox login used separate session stores and
different route paths. This split increased the risk of inconsistent
company scoping, session lookup, and cleanup.

**Proposed solution**

Use `adapter_auth_sessions` for both login flows. Use public session
identifiers for API access. Select login behavior from projected adapter
capability data. Share the route spine, lease arguments, runner
lifecycle, and reaper rules.

**Alternatives considered**

Keep two session tables and add matching fixes to both routes. This
keeps duplicate logic and does not provide one capability contract, so
this pull request uses shared infrastructure.

**Roadmap alignment**

This change supports the shipped Cloud / Sandbox agents milestone in
`ROADMAP.md`.

## What Changed

- Unify Codex device login and Claude setup-token login on
`adapter_auth_sessions`.
- Return and look up sessions with company-scoped public session
identifiers.
- Enforce one active session for each company, owner, and adapter.
- Share the login route spine, sandbox lease arguments, runner
lifecycle, and missing-auth check.
- Add a standalone setup-token reaper with adapter-specific row
selection.
- Add optional login capability projection for adapters and drive route
and UI selection from that data.
- Rename the provider flag to `supportsLoginPty` and validate its
deprecated alias.
- Remove the old Claude setup-token session table and add the required
migrations.

## Verification

- Server typecheck passed with `tsc`.
- Database typecheck passed.
- UI typecheck passed with `tsc -b`.
- Codex login service and route suites passed.
- Setup-token session, route, and reaper suites passed.
- Adapter session schema, plugin validator, capability projection, UI
render, and Daytona suites passed.
- GitHub Actions must confirm the complete CI gate after pull request
creation.

## Risks

- The migrations remove short-lived in-flight login rows during
deployment. A login that spans the migration can continue until its
provider lease expires.
- The Codex credential store remains company-scoped. A cross-owner
credential race remains a documented, board-accepted risk.
- API clients that use internal session row identifiers no longer work.
The API accepts only public session identifiers.

## Model Used

Codex, GPT-5, exact runtime model ID not exposed in this handoff, large
context window, reasoning, and repository tool use. The implementing
engineer produced the code with AI assistance.
