DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 347d21fcbd test(runner-e2e): scope each agent's sandbox to its own run's saved state (#20253)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The runner E2E chat evals run real agents against a local Paperclip
instance on a CI host
> - PR #20044 hides the eval harness from local native agents with a
Linux Landlock domain around each runnerd launch
> - That domain is the same for every run in an attempt, so an eval
agent can still read another run's saved state
> - Recent chat-eval runs show agents that read other runs' OpenCode
session databases, another run's run log, the instance `pg_wal`,
`control-plane-state.json`, and `/proc/<pid>/cmdline` of harness
processes
> - This pull request scopes each runnerd launch to its own run and
moves the selected case id off the command line
> - The benefit is that an eval agent cannot learn about the case or
other runs from files outside its own run

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #20044

**What happened**

In local native OpenCode chat-eval cells, worker agents read files that
belong to other runs or to the harness:

- other runs' OpenCode sqlite session databases under
`runtime/paperclip-runner/durable-sessions/` (a status-cards run)
- `/proc/<pid>/cmdline` of harness processes, which shows harness paths
and the case id (`routines.pause-owned`)
- another run's run-log ndjson, and a listing of the instance
`db/pg_wal` (`routines.pause-owned`)
- a listing of `control-plane-state.json`
(`runs-adapters.list-model-options`)

The Landlock sandbox from #20044 hides only the harness (`tests/`, the
Git store, private attempt directories). All runnerd launches share one
hidden set, so the instance's per-run directories stay readable.

**Expected behavior**

An agent process sees only its own run's durable session, OpenCode
session and provider trace. Other runs' sessions, run logs and traces,
the instance database files, secrets and the shared control-plane state
in the attempt instance are denied. The case id is not on any harness
command line.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Dispatch a local native OpenCode chat-features cell that has two
agents (for example a status-cards case).
2. In the worker's shell, run `ls
<instance>/runtime/paperclip-runner/durable-sessions/*/` and `ls
<instance>/db/pg_wal`.
3. Run `cat /proc/<launcher pid>/cmdline`.
4. Before this change, all three succeed and show other runs' files and
`--id chat-features...`.

## What Changed

- `agent-filesystem-sandbox.py`: new `--expose PATH` option. It grants a
path beneath a hidden directory. Landlock does not check traversal, so
the run uses its own entry while the parent stays unlistable. The helper
refuses a missing exposure, an exposure outside every hidden path, or
one that would reveal a hidden path. It fails the launch unless every
exposed path is readable.
- `agent-filesystem-sandbox.ts`: the launcher passes the instance root
in the sandbox configuration. `runnerdLaunchSandbox` adds per-launch
hidden paths: `durable-sessions/`, `runner/`, `control-plane/`,
`opencode/` under `runtime/paperclip-runner/`, and `data/run-logs/`,
`data/provider-traces/`, `data/backups/`, `db/`, `secrets/`. It exposes
only the launch's own durable-session directory (from `--state-dir`),
Codex runner state directory, OpenCode session directory (from
`--session-id`, named as the OpenCode driver names it) and provider
trace file.
- The wrapper creates the exposed entries, and the shared instance
directories that the product creates on first use, before runnerd
starts. It logs the run-scoped hidden and exposed paths for each launch.
- New `probeRunScopedSandbox`: at server start, a sandboxed shell runs
against a fixture instance. Another run's session, OpenCode database,
runner state, run log, trace, `pg_wal`, secrets, control-plane state and
the server's `/proc/<pid>/environ` must be denied. The run's own
session, OpenCode directory, ACPX directory and trace must be writable.
In CI any failure stops the attempt. The result goes to `server.log`.
- `selectors.ts` and `launch.ts`: the launcher reads the selected cell
from `PAPERCLIP_RUNNER_E2E_SELECTED_ID` and removes it from its
environment.
- `runner-full-stack-e2e.yml` (Run paid cell) and
`chat-catalog-testops-case.yml`: pass the cell in that variable instead
of `--id`. A target branch that does not read the variable still gets
`--id`.
- `SECURITY.md`: documents the run scope, the `/proc` limit and what
stays readable.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run --config tests/runner-e2e/vitest.config.ts
tests/runner-e2e/agent-filesystem-sandbox.test.ts
tests/runner-e2e/workflow-security.test.ts
tests/runner-e2e/manual-private-workflow.test.ts
tests/runner-e2e/private-trust-workflow-security.test.ts` passes on
macOS. The Landlock host tests (including the new fixture-instance probe
test) run only on Linux CI.
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p tests/runner-e2e` shows no errors in the changed
files.
- Paid run
[42611358428](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42611358428):
`chat-features.runner-opencode.local.agents.change-manager` on the same
commit applied to `chat-eval/master-candidate` (fca4bb7ce3). Result:
passed. In `server.log` the setup probe reports `failures: []` and
`run:otherDurableSession`, `run:durableSessionListing`,
`run:otherRunnerState`, `run:controlPlaneState`,
`run:otherOpencodeSession`, `run:otherRunLog`, `run:databaseWal`,
`run:secrets`, `run:otherProviderTrace` and `run:harnessEnviron` all
`denied`; `run:ownDurableSession`, `run:ownOpencodeSession`,
`run:acpxRuntime` and `run:ownProviderTrace` `allowed`;
`run:harnessCmdline` `allowed` (recorded, Landlock limit). The runnerd
launch line lists the nine run-scoped hidden instance paths and exposes
only its own durable-session and OpenCode session directories. The agent
finished the case inside that sandbox.

## Risks

- A sandboxed runnerd cannot create new direct entries in the instance
root, `runtime/`, `runtime/paperclip-runner/` or `data/`. The wrapper
creates the known ones first (`acpx`, `companies`, `projects`,
`workspaces`, `runtime-context-assets`, `skills`,
`runtime/provider-packs`). A provider that creates a different new
directory there fails in a sandboxed local cell. The paid run covers
OpenCode only. ACPX cells keep their runtime directory readable.
- A run still reads its own session's control-plane state, and other
agents' homes and task workspaces in the same instance.
- Landlock cannot hide `/proc/<pid>/cmdline`. Harness paths stay visible
there. Only the case id moves to the environment. Scheduled multi-cell
campaigns still pass `--id`.
- Harness-only change. No product code changes.

## Model Used

DottaandPaperclip 0fd82e386e feat(evals): stream completed chat catalog results to TestOps (#18647)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage AI agents and inspect their work.
> - The chat catalog uses real Product E2E cases and reports their
original grades to TestOps.
> - The current report matrix waits for every selected worker.
> - A large selection can hide completed results for hours.
> - Each case can use the existing private reader and safe exporter
after its own worker ends.
> - This PR gives each case a separate upload and readback job, then
verifies final coverage without another upload.
> - People can inspect completed cases while the rest of the selection
runs.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18542, #18625.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The existing chat catalog reports results to TestOps only after all
selected workers finish.

**Current behavior**

One slow case holds back the report and upload jobs for all other cases.

**Proposed behavior**

Each finished case gets its own protected reader, safe projection,
upload and backend verification. The final job checks the whole
selection through read-only requests. It does not upload results again.

**Reason and benefit**

A person can inspect a completed grade and its safe evidence receipts
while other cases run. This changes future runs. It does not change an
in-flight run.

## What Changed

- Add one same-commit reusable workflow with separate worker,
private-reader and TestOps-upload jobs. Each job uses only its own
protected environment. Callers pass empty named secret placeholders and
do not inherit secrets.
- Reuse the original exporter and grade checks. Freeze each case's three
Allure JSON files once. Allow known sibling results during per-case
readback. Keep final exact selection coverage.
- Submit each bundle at most once. Reconcile uncertain responses by
readback. Retain only closed publication, failure and upload-intent
receipts. A rerun attempt still fails the existing attempt-one admission
guard.
- Preserve failed original grades, failed cleanup and missing evidence.
No missing original can become a passing result.
- Keep external-input cases in the serial lane. Small native-only
selections allow two cases at once. Small mixed selections allow one
native and one external case. Larger selections retain eight native
cases and one external case.
- Add source, privacy and failure controls to the existing unit roster.
Document the reporting flow and runner-group admission requirement.
- Fix an existing corruption-test fixture that could write the same byte
back to a random IV. Read and flip one bit instead. Keep the storage
rejection and unpublished-plaintext assertions unchanged.

## Verification

- 152 focused Node controls pass across the shared client, API,
selection, CLI and streaming tests. The retained parent controls show
the missing multipart and partial-readback behavior, plus the small
external-selection error before its fix.
- The focused workflow security control passes. Actionlint passes for
both workflows. Changed JavaScript files pass syntax checks. Git diff
checks pass.
- Local controls use synthetic data and mocked HTTP. They make no
provider call and do not start an app, database or native build.
- Previous head `b51406df` passed PR CI (48 jobs pass and one is
skipped). The review-driven test-only successor `0c65cc21` then failed
one unchanged snapshot-storage corruption test, plus the final CI
summary. The latest head includes its narrow fixture repair. Its first
CI attempt separately hit runner shutdown/lost-communication failures,
two setup/timeouts and a heartbeat-cancel cleanup HTTP 500/lock timeout;
those observations are retained without claiming their underlying cause.
One same-head failed-and-cancelled-only recovery now passes at
`bf9c3e8f`: 48 jobs pass and one is skipped, including required `ci /
verify` and `ci / e2e`. All 31 already-passing jobs retained their
original execution records; all 15 recovered leaves and both dependent
summaries passed. The first attempt remains recorded; the recovery does
not establish the underlying causes of those failures. A small AWS run
after delivery must prove that one case and both attachments are visible
before another original case ends. That live proof is pending; local
controls do not prove vendor ingestion or environment-secret resolution.
- Retained earlier fixture-calibration failures remain recorded. The
final integrated Node control run is green. A deterministic Node
crypto/filesystem control also reproduces the no-op corruption mutation
with a valid IV byte equal to `X`, then passes after flipping that byte.
This control uses no app or database. The failing CI byte was not
captured, so the exact historical byte remains unknown.

## Risks

- The called workflow needs its exact master ref in the existing
selected-workflow runner group. No IAM role change is needed.
- Environment-only secrets must resolve in the called jobs. The caller
passes no actual model or reporting key. The small live proof must
confirm this behavior.
- TestOps does not document an idempotency key for this upload route. An
uncertain write is never resent automatically. If readback cannot verify
it, the workflow fails with retained closed receipts.
- The existing job run can already be marked finished by the selection
watch. The live proof must record its actual stage and prove subsequent
uploads are accepted. This PR does not reopen, stop or close that job
run.
- Backend ingestion does not prove that an already-open TestOps page
refreshes automatically.
- The corruption-test repair changes no production storage or
cryptography. New-head AWS CI must qualify the existing database-backed
owner test.
- Each case adds short protected reader and upload jobs. The app source,
original case clocks, graders, model, budgets, raw-evidence privacy
boundary and zero eval retries stay unchanged. The versioned stream
concurrency group serializes new streaming runs; an old immutable batch
run can continue in its original group.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol`, with tool use and code execution. The session does
not expose a context-window size. Independent source peers used the same
model family.
