DottaandPaperclip 98d17da1e2 Fix native monitor dispatch and finalization recovery (#16975)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Native runs persist their results and workspace before they release
execution.
> - A task monitor must wait for that settlement before it starts the
next run.
> - The scheduler checked provider status but did not check unfinished
finalization.
> - A timer could dispatch too early, then its old finalizer could no
longer find the consumed schedule.
> - This pull request delays dispatch and reconciles prior delivery from
server records.
> - The task can continue without repeating the provider turn or
removing a newer run's ownership.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A native run saved a yielded monitor result while workspace finalization
needed recovery. Its timer dispatched after the provider stopped. The
follow-up failed because the earlier run still held workspace recovery.
The old finalizer then retried `monitor_wait_authority_lost`
indefinitely.

**Expected behavior**

Timer dispatch waits for native finalization. If an older timer already
dispatched, the finalizer uses its saved scheduling receipt and admitted
successor to settle the old result. It preserves current task state and
ownership.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Schedule a task monitor from a native run and save a yielded result.
2. Leave native finalization retryable after the provider reaches a
terminal state.
3. Let the monitor become due. Before this change, the scheduler
consumes it.
4. Restore workspace persistence and retry the old finalizer. Before
this change, the missing schedule leaves it retryable.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced against master `34be1b831bcaba070264ae8d214ceffe6a8f9eab`.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted server built from source, with PostgreSQL and the native
runner. Related recent recovery work: #16962 and #16963. No duplicate
repair found for this failure.

## What Changed

- Scheduled and manual monitor dispatch wait for unfinished native
finalization. If the monitor expires during workspace recovery, the
accepted result can settle into the persisted schedule, and the
scheduler then applies its existing expiry policy. New monitor-wait
results still require an unexpired, unexhausted schedule.
- A narrow reader joins the run's server-issued monitor receipt to its
durable wake and admitted successor.
- The finalizer and locked status commit verify that evidence and
preserve current task ownership. They do not create another wake.
- Monitor delivery participates in assessment identity, so recovery can
replace a prior error decision without violating the decision ledger's
uniqueness constraints.
- PostgreSQL regressions cover saved-result replay, active successors,
wrong task or agent, missing receipts, unadmitted wakes, ownership
races, and failed workspace persistence.
- The execution contract and verification maps describe the recovery
boundary.

## Verification

- Red: the saved monitor regression remained `retryable_failure` instead
of `committed` on unpatched code.
- Red: the scheduler admitted a wake while terminal-run finalization
remained retryable.
- Red/green: two PostgreSQL cases reproduce timeout during workspace
recovery for scheduled and manual checks. Before the review repair, both
remain `retryable_failure` with `monitor_wait_authority_lost`.
Afterward, both commit, apply board escalation once, preserve the saved
result, and enqueue zero provider wakes. New completion still rejects
the expired schedule.
- Typecheck: `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- Build: `pnpm build` passed.
- Maps: `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` passed.
- Review: Greptile 5/5 and Ponytail Paperclip Review 5/5 on the current
head, with no unresolved findings. Both reviews are static; execution
evidence is recorded separately above and below.
- Linux staging: the original repair passed 170 tests across monitor
integration, scheduling, status arbitration, and workspace finalization.
The expanded suite passes all 172 tests, including both new timeout
regressions.
- Live acceptance: deployed the original repair to the authorized Linux
ARM64 self-hosted instance. The stranded saved result finalized
automatically; the original task then completed through normal
admission, with its final answer persisted after browser reload. The
other original task was already complete and its external delivery was
verified without repeating it.
- The initial Mac regression run passed 68 tests, but three suites
failed during embedded PostgreSQL startup. A subsequent focused run
confirmed the host had exhausted its PostgreSQL semaphore allowance.
Linux verification uses isolated databases; the local failure logs
remain preserved.
- The local full test suite is not claimed as passed. It is blocked by
the same PostgreSQL startup limitation; full-suite CI passed on head
`8bc29d1b7783446f397b858e558083570a96bb66`
([run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39447913466)).

## Risks

- A delivery match must not grant new execution authority. The lookup
requires the original run's server receipt and a matching company,
agent, task, wake, and admitted successor. The locked commit rejects
old-run checkout ownership and permits no status effects.
- Workspace persistence must succeed before settlement. Its existing
failure path remains effective.
- The scheduler waits while a native finalizer is unfinished. Workspace
recovery must settle before dispatch; elapsed monitor limits transfer to
the existing scheduler recovery policy instead of stranding the result.
Neither settlement path renews a deadline or changes budget, approval,
pause, or provider authority.
- No schema, migration, credential, or provider configuration change.

DottaandPaperclip b928c6698f fix(heartbeat): explain deferred monitor dispatch (#16891)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - One-shot task monitors request future work through the normal
heartbeat queue.
> - Queue admission can hold execution until recovery or ownership is
reconciled.
> - The scheduler retained those monitor schedules but recorded no
monitor diagnostic.
> - Agents could repeatedly reschedule the same blocked check without
seeing why it did not run.
> - This pull request records safe deferral and failure activity while
retaining all execution gates.
> - Agents and operators can inspect the actual blocker and use its
existing recovery path.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #15556 handles transient monitor client errors. #14590 handles
parked monitor wakes. This change records the diagnosis when queue
admission defers or fails; it does not change their admission or monitor
consumption policies.

**What happened?**

A due monitor on a task with an unresolved execution-recovery hold was
claimed, passed to queue admission, and released without monitor
activity. The saved monitor continued to look scheduled. Unexpected
dispatch errors had the same audit gap. Repeated rearming could not
clear the recovery hold.

**Expected behavior**

Keep the monitor and the recovery hold. Record the reason that prevented
its wake. Do not execute uncertain work or consume an attempt. Limit
repeated identical diagnostics. If audit storage fails, release the
claim so a later tick can retry.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Schedule a due monitor on an agent-owned task in progress.
2. Add an active recovery action for an interrupted legacy execution.
3. Run the monitor scheduler twice. No provider may start while the hold
remains.
4. Before this fix, neither attempt writes monitor deferral activity.
5. Resolve the hold through its existing recovery path. The saved
monitor can then request one wake.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on master 5739a53f5f with real PostgreSQL and the assembled
heartbeat service.

**Deployment mode**

Built from source. This affects the server monitor scheduler.

## What Changed

- Pass the existing execution blocker cause to the monitor scheduler
through a server-owned diagnostic callback.
- Record issue.monitor_deferred for held admission and
issue.monitor_dispatch_failed for unexpected admission failures.
- Keep activity to known reason codes and allowlisted blocker causes. Do
not copy raw provider messages.
- Fence claim release and activity against replacement, reassignment,
completion and competing scheduler instances.
- Limit identical activity for one schedule and cause to one record per
five minutes.
- Keep claim release functional when diagnostic storage fails.
- Update execution documentation and the task verification maps.

## Verification

- Red: explains held monitor dispatch without replaying uncertain
execution failed because it expected one deferral activity row and
received none. The fixture used the real queue, persisted source run and
recovery action.
- Red: records bounded dispatch failure diagnostics while retaining the
schedule failed because no failure activity was recorded.
- Green: both regressions pass after the fix. The held-source test
proves no successor while held, no monitor attempt consumed, and one
wake after explicit hold resolution.
- Passed: all 43 tests in heartbeat/scheduling.test.ts and
issue-monitor-scheduler.test.ts, with at most two workers.
- Additional coverage uses real PostgreSQL for diagnostic rate limits,
replacement races and an audit-insert trigger failure. Audit failure
must not retain the monitor claim. Private error and unknown blocker
text do not reach activity.
- Passed: node scripts/check-maps.mjs and git diff --check.
- Greptile: 5/5 with no actionable issues on
1d0aec738c.
- Latest-head checks: 55 successful, two skipped, and one neutral. No
check remains pending or failed. The branch has no merge conflict.
Paperclip Review ended neutral because its agent did not return a
complete assessment; it is not counted as a validated review pass.
- The dependency added on deferral is one bounded recent activity query
and at most one audit insert. Successful admission adds no new database
read. Existing queue authority checks still decide admission.
- The process fixtures validate queue admission and persisted state.
They log workspace setup errors after admission; this report does not
claim a live provider turn succeeded or that an existing deployment was
repaired.
- Passed: pnpm --dir server exec tsc --noEmit. The wrapper typecheck was
stopped because it started a redundant cold native Runner build. Full
repository checks run in PR CI; no local full-suite or full-build pass
is claimed.

## Risks

- Audit work must not strand a monitor. The storage-failure regression
verifies that rollback is followed by a claim-fenced release.
- Recovery holds still require their current reconciliation path. This
change makes their effect visible and does not bypass ownership, budget,
pause, Stop or company checks.
- Activity can be stale after a later repair, so each entry includes the
checked time and the exact saved deadline. A replacement cannot inherit
an old dispatch diagnostic.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, tool use and code execution.
The exact runtime model suffix and context window are not exposed to
this session.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 35b3345033 fix(server): support issue monitor deadlines in idle sleep reports (#16325)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for companies and AI agents.
> - Hosted workspaces can sleep when their required work has a safe wake
path.
> - The current idle check treats every open issue as background work.
> - Backlog, unassigned and human-waiting records can therefore keep an
idle process running.
> - Future automated monitors still need their saved check time and
execution claims.
> - This PR adds a signed host capability for passive issues and
verified monitor deadlines.
> - The host can save one alarm for the earliest required routine or
monitor time.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A quiet workspace with a backlog or unassigned todo issue reports
background work as present. A future issue monitor also prevents sleep
even when the host can save a durable wake alarm.

**Expected behavior**

Proven passive records can sleep. A validated future monitor can sleep
only after the host saves its alarm and validates the same owned report.
Active, unknown and unresolved work stays awake.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a quiet workspace with an unassigned todo issue and no other
work.
2. Acquire a bounded, signed Cloud idle hold.
3. Request the routine-only safety report with `scheduledWake=1`. The
issue blocks sleep.
4. Request the new capability with `scheduledWake=2`. A passive issue
can now report no work.
5. Add a valid future monitor to an assigned in-progress issue. The
second capability returns its saved deadline for host acknowledgement.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Base: `c30fb7d2b75ea30f72d63656b2a7cfff7fe0929d`.

**Deployment mode**

Cloud-managed authenticated instance. Local scheduling remains in the
existing scheduler.

Related protocol:
[#16215](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/16215). Open
scheduler and monitor PRs were checked for overlap. This change leaves
monitor admission, dispatch and quota recovery with their existing
owners. The roadmap already includes scheduled work; this is a focused
idle-safety extension.

## What Changed

- Add signed scheduling capability `2`; capability `1` retains the
routine-only rules.
- Allow untouched onboarding prompts with idle assignees to sleep using
the same awaiting-user predicate as recovery; typing, answering the
opening card or a prior run removes the exemption.
- Inspect passive issue state and future monitors in the same bounded,
read-only snapshot as other work.
- Check ownership, company scope, known states, claims, policy/deadline
agreement, attempts, timeout and dependency repair.
- Combine routine and monitor deadlines into a known proof kind and
catalog generation.
- Preserve other sleep blockers, including task watchdogs,
conversations, live runs, external credentials and recovery.
- Update the protected route, OpenAPI contract, documentation and
PostgreSQL regression tests.

## Verification

- Full workspace typecheck and build passed. Final server typecheck and
full build passed after the final guards.
- Initial safety, scheduling, protected-route and control-authentication
checks: 326 tests passed.
- Final safety and heartbeat scheduling checks: 253 tests passed.
Includes reporting a future deadline, restoring scheduling from
PostgreSQL and one dispatch across competing schedulers.
- Local general server checks: 20,260 passed; UI: 8,460 passed; CLI: 534
passed, including isolated reruns of two embedded-PostgreSQL startup
failures. All remaining workspace groups and 158 serialized suites
passed. The suite was completed in groups after the isolated
infrastructure retries; the final onboarding change also passed the
focused 674-test recovery/safety run. Earlier unchanged Git fixtures
failed under Xcode's system `init.defaultBranch=main`, reproduced on the
clean base and passed with a test-scoped fixture default; no source or
machine configuration was changed.
- Rebased issue, protected-route and scheduler checks: 115 tests passed;
server typecheck passed.
- The expanded change passed 674 idle-safety, scheduling and recovery
regression tests, including six onboarding admission/invalidation cases.
Final server typecheck and build passed.
- Current-head Apex is 5/5 with no unresolved threads. All 54
current-head checks passed, with two expected skips. Four jobs were
interrupted by runner shutdowns or lost communication on their first
attempts; their targeted reruns passed. Live hosting qualification
awaits the verified master release and matching host capability.

## Risks

This intentionally covers a limited set of passive states and valid
future monitors. Assigned active tasks without a proved waiting path,
unknown states, claimed monitors and quota recovery still block sleep.
It does not make every open issue safe to sleep.

A matching host must recognize `routines_and_issue_monitors`,
acknowledge the durable alarm and revalidate the exact owner, generation
and deadline before stopping. The report alone grants no stop authority.
Older hosts retain capability `1`. Independent database writers remain
outside the admission contract. Existing scheduler claims and execution
authority are unchanged. No schema migration is required.

Roll back host negotiation to capability `1` to restore conservative
admission, while retaining alarm delivery until outstanding alarms have
been handled.

DottaandPaperclip 65965f0d3a refactor(heartbeat): extract scheduling and monitor recovery (#15717)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The heartbeat service schedules and runs agent work.
> - Previous refactors moved queue admission, recovery, and run control
into separate modules.
> - Timer ticks, issue monitors, and session-goal recovery still occupy
more than 1,100 lines in the main service.
> - This pull request moves that scheduling code into one module with
explicit dependencies.
> - This makes scheduling easier to review and test before we split the
execution pipeline.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15685, the merged run-control extraction. A search found no
duplicate open scheduling extraction.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Maintenance and testing of heartbeat scheduling.

**Current behavior**

The main heartbeat service contains 10,473 lines. Scheduling shares a
file with the execution pipeline.

**Proposed behavior**

Move scheduling into `server/src/services/heartbeat/scheduling.ts`. Keep
the same public methods, admission rules, database claims, and execution
behavior. The main file falls to 9,330 lines.

**Reason and benefit**

Give timer ticks, issue-monitor recovery, and session-goal recovery one
clear module boundary.

**Breaking changes**

None intended. Existing heartbeat exports and method signatures remain
available.

## What Changed

- Add `createHeartbeatScheduling` with 11 explicit dependencies.
Construction does not query the database or start timers.
- Move timer ticks, issue-monitor dispatch and recovery, and
session-goal recovery into the new module.
- Keep queue admission, heartbeat policy parsing, and atomic timer
claims in `queue.ts`.
- Share the unchanged goal-control parser and issue-link formatter with
their existing callers.
- Add 20 focused tests. Document the module boundary in
`doc/DEVELOPING.md`.

## Verification

- 122 tests pass across 11 files: 20 new scheduler tests, 52 existing
scheduling integration tests, and 50 adjacent queue, goal,
native-selection, and task-drain tests.
- New database tests cover cross-instance monitor claims, replacement
schedules, deferred and failed admission, native ownership, archived
companies, timer claim loss, worktree cutoffs, agent eligibility, goal
recovery keys, pending-action deduplication, and invalid-action
persistence.
- AST comparison confirms 20 unchanged function bodies, unchanged
remaining service statements, unchanged `executeRun`, and all 140 public
exports preserved.
- Workspace typecheck (`pnpm -r typecheck`) and build (`pnpm build`)
pass. Greptile is 5/5 on commit
`89a1a3b3aa428949eba349af5c1618391f97a19c`. All CI checks pass on that
commit. The full test suite runs in CI; local verification was targeted.
- The first CI attempt hit a 15-second timeout in the first test of
unchanged `plugin-scoped-api-routes.test.ts`. All nine tests pass
locally in 6.6 seconds. That shard passed on its one retry without code
changes.
- Run the new tests with `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/heartbeat/scheduling.test.ts --maxWorkers=1`.

## Risks

- Incorrect wiring could bypass suppression, duplicate a monitor wake,
or lose a replacement schedule. Database tests cover these boundaries
and existing integration tests still call the public heartbeat service.
- This PR moves the current behavior without changing scheduling policy,
schema, provider execution, or cancellation ownership.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, code editing, and command
execution. The session does not expose the exact model variant or
context window size.
