Nicky LeachandPaperclip 79b2bf78dd Create agent records when onboarding names are submitted (#17005)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Core onboarding selects an agent and connects its provider account.
> - The current flow creates the agent record after authentication.
> - Setup needs a stable agent identity as soon as the user submits its
name.
> - This PR saves a paused setup record on name submission and finishes
the hire on that same record.
> - The existing sandbox authentication and approval paths continue to
apply.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Core agent lifecycle, shared validators, and onboarding UI.

**Current behavior**

Onboarding creates the database record at the final hire step. Earlier
authentication and saved setup have no agent record.

**Proposed behavior**

Create a paused agent with a setup hold when the user submits its name.
Do this before adapter selection or authentication. Update that same
record after adapter selection. Reuse its ID on retries and saved setup.
Finish that record through the existing hire path.

**Reason and benefit**

Give setup a stable identity without coupling this refactor to computer
provisioning or a new execution backend.

**Breaking changes**

Incomplete setup now leaves an inactive agent record. Existing clients
can still create and hire agents without the new optional fields. The
sandbox authentication flow and API key support remain in place.

**Additional context**

Requested Core-only refactor. Related work: #15422 changes runner
defaults. This PR preserves those choices. No duplicate early-record
refactor was found in the issue and PR search.

## What Changed

- Save the agent when the user submits its name in both onboarding entry
points. Use a provisional adapter until the user chooses one. Reopen
name-only drafts at adapter selection.
- Add retry-safe setup creation and same-record hire completion. Keep
approval checks at final hire.
- Save and restore setup configuration in both onboarding entry points.
Show Finish setup for paused setup agents.
- Restrict setup changes to authorized board users. Block generic resume
until setup finishes.
- Add lifecycle, authorization, connection, and UI coverage. Update the
specification and feature maps.

## Verification

- Latest focused server run: 126 lifecycle and AI-connection tests
passed after the Apex fixes. An earlier broader run passed 301
lifecycle, instruction, adapter-validation, and AI-connection tests.
Earlier authentication, retry, cross-company, and direct-create
regressions also passed.
- Name-save verification: 336 tests across the wizard, naming dialog,
New agent, action-button, and wizard-step suites passed. Coverage
includes retry identity, repeated submission, closing during a save,
saved-model restoration, and a disabled process adapter.
- Shared, server, and UI TypeScript checks passed. The latest UI package
check and direct server TypeScript check passed. The server package
preparation command could not finish locally because Cargo is
unavailable; full build preparation runs in CI. Map checks, token gates,
and `git diff --check` passed; each pushed diff was scanned for
credentials and PII.
- All six onboarding browser tests passed together with installed Chrome
against a fresh throwaway instance after the Apex fixes. They include
numbered duplicate names, first-time Copilot without a connected
account, and Grok’s saved model. They verify early persistence in both
entry points, closing and reopening a name-only draft, same-record
adapter selection, sandbox sign-in, login reload, and failed-connection
gating. Provider responses are simulated; Core persistence is real.
- Regression coverage includes incomplete Copilot creation versus final
validation, Kimi settings through redacted responses, stale local
drafts, company switches during creation, saved environments, and
provider changes with personal/shared old bindings.
- Apex found five name-only setup gaps: numbered names, early Copilot
account validation, the Grok model default, same-name draft ownership,
and provisional runner restoration. The fixes preserve server names,
defer implicit account binding until hire, set Grok’s model, avoid
name-based reuse of unfinished records, and restore Auto for pending
adapter choices. UI, database, and browser regressions cover these
cases.
- Standard Greptile found a Grok provider mismatch in the new adapter
save. The save now uses ACPX with the Grok profile. Both the 129-test
dialog/setup run and a real-API browser regression passed after the fix.
The first browser attempt stopped on an ambiguous empty-roster button
selector; it now scopes the click to the toolbar.
- Moving the save point exposed a saved-model reset and timing
assumptions in the same-name and portal fixtures. The source choice now
preserves the restored model, and tests cover same-name recovery without
a second hire.
- Initial CI exposed direct-create compatibility, concurrent setup
effects, fixture assumptions, and a missing-fields assumption in the
provider-validation guard. These were fixed and verified locally. Review
findings were addressed with authorization, recovery,
credential-persistence, and restored-configuration regressions.
- The final desktop capture passed after host resource cleanup. A repeat
first failed before Core started because macOS had exhausted
shared-memory IDs. Standalone PostgreSQL initialization reproduced the
same error. Releasing only unattached control segments from this task’s
stopped test databases allowed the unchanged revision to pass. No Core
or system setting changed.
- Local database tests required port access outside the sandbox. Missing
declared development dependencies were supplied outside the branch. No
live provider sign-in was tested locally.
- [Full monorepo
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39522434236)
is green on `82b82fec189a172a885d4dd565ae2f4a18c73efc`. Standard
Greptile scored 5/5 with zero new comments (check `118969424903`). The
subsequent Apex review also scored 5/5 with zero new comments (check
`118972866331`) on that same commit. All review threads are resolved.
- The separate Superagent Security scan returned neutral/inconclusive
because its pinned merge-base checkout failed or timed out. GitHub
returned 404 for check and suite rerun requests. This is not a
successful security scan; the CI workflow and other security checks
passed.

## Risks

- Users can leave inactive setup records behind, including after name
submission alone. These records cannot run until hire completes.
- Setup completion touches hiring and approval boundaries. Tests cover
retries, company isolation, creator permissions, and approval snapshots.
- An uncertain credential-save result retains its new secret reference
for retry. A confirmed client rejection removes only credentials staged
by that attempt.
- No schema migration or VM provisioning change is required.
Agent-computer integration is out of scope.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with repository search, code editing, and
tool execution. The exact deployment ID and context window are not
exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 45b67f1d93 feat: default new Apple Silicon Claude agents to Paperclip Runner (#15993)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets users choose an agent harness and account.
> - The server resolves the runner for new agents.
> - Claude still needs the same ordinary native-default journey as
Codex.
> - Existing agents must retain their runner, model and account.
> - This PR defaults new Apple Silicon Claude agents to Paperclip Runner
with Opus 5.5.
> - Users can connect and work without a runner override.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15683. This PR depends on #15994 and precedes #15997. Related
scope: #15422, #13978 and #15224.

## What Changed

- Resolve new Apple Silicon Claude agents to `paperclip_runner`,
`provider: acpx`, `acpxAgent: claude`. Keep explicit Legacy, models,
provider routing and saved execution.
- Use `claude-opus-5-5` for ordinary Claude defaults and retain explicit
overrides.
- Reuse existing API-key/subscription connections, credential storage
and checks. Generalize the shared Advanced runner control with Claude
branding.
- Carry configured effort into the shared v9 contract. Preserve
compatible permissions, instructions, skills, timeouts and session
behavior. Require Legacy for unsupported settings.
- Qualify a new immutable managed Claude target at explicit Connect
through the existing permission-gated probe. Use fresh scoped discovery
for test and hire. Discard stale results and require an explicit Connect
after settings change.
- Retain merged Codex onboarding recovery, auth preparation,
import/effort corrections and Grok Bot gates.
- Check the Claude first-task wizard's saved default directly. Update
configuration/runtime documentation and exact Opus 5.5 accounting.

- Align hire fixtures with the merged host-environment restriction.
Native agent-authenticated hires cannot inject host env settings; both
creation endpoints verify that no extra agent is saved.

## Verification

- Updated onto master `9179d8dcc3e908c217fde4f63c9d08ccf8132eeb` through
#15994. Native input v9 carries effort while preserving v7 home modes
and v8 Muse. Codex defaults remain unchanged.
- Focused local verification passed 285 server tests, 323 UI tests, 124
setup/registry tests, and two v9 permission-pin transport cases. Direct
server/UI TypeScript checks passed. An initial 30-second hook timeout
was resolved by serial verification with a longer hook budget: all 122
credential/permission cases and 232 snapshot/environment cases pass.
Direct server TypeScript checking also passes.
- Ordinary web creation with the experiment disabled saved native
Claude, Opus 5.5 and High effort without runner/model overrides. The
actual product task and follow-up both succeeded on integrated source
`b2c9fe43f9cd3bc5dd9d22552da0148845ba71a4` with the cloud-built daemon
from `04e0202ca81387b17cbe7fd094a8338648356fe9`. The final master
reconciliation also changes shared runtime source. Historical proof
retains its source identity; a final-source cloud qualification is
running before refreshing the preview daemon.
- Both actual browser downloads were checked: v1 has three sections/six
checkboxes (451 bytes); v2 preserves the original body and adds two
Rollback checks (612 bytes). The original attachment stayed
byte-identical. The follow-up records session resume and the same
provider session. Total estimated API usage: $0.518432800, with no
pending/unpriced usage in the successful fixture.
- Fixed the live-discovered setup incompatibility: native API-key
validation no longer depends on the global Legacy Claude CLI. The
existing provider endpoint verifies the key without a paid prompt;
subscription/custom routing probes remain intact.
- Fixed security review's native-hire credential redirection:
agent-supplied URLs, proxy/launch settings and other host environment
controls are rejected before inheritance. Native credential references
remain supported and partial edits use the saved harness. Added
create/hire/update regression coverage.
- Current-head cloud CI is green. All three stack PRs have fresh
Greptile 5/5 reviews and zero unresolved review threads. Required
typecheck, test and build gates ran in cloud CI; Docker work stayed
remote. Earlier failed checks remain in their original runs.
- Docker and native release builds ran in cloud infrastructure. An
inadvertent local Rust prerequisite was stopped; no local Docker build
was run.

- The final master merge preserves task-loading, permission,
skill-retention and OpenRouter changes. Pi uses a fresh combined profile
27, preserving both historical profile-24 declarations; Copilot remains
profile 22. Focused protocol checks passed 155 cases (one skipped), the
updated Pi attestation check passed 18 (one skipped), and 91
evaluation/catalog checks passed.

- Latest-application manual continuation passed in 37.942 seconds on
`695e5c005a85bddc8711d3fcddcaf6b7e1fb64d0`, with High effort, native
Opus 5.5, Anthropic API attribution, the same resumed Claude session, an
independently checked 635-byte file and persisted Done status. It uses
the earlier verified Mac daemon; the preceding-source package
qualification passed at `dca62c7aeb4b45f0dd91a8e18d386a16a2658ef8`. That
package run predates the small TypeScript startup fix and is not
relabeled as qualification for it.
- Upgrade limitation: changed compiled sidecar identity rejected old
durable launch state and recovery hit session-open bounds before
eventually resuming. That attempt was operator-cancelled and retained;
the successful manual continuation does not qualify seamless upgrades.

- Local latency profile, Opus 5.5/High unchanged: three alternating
real-ACP loopback samples per variant reduce median provider-ready time
from 5.081s to 4.034s. The matched real API task startup improves from
5.533s to 4.348s, but total reply time changes from 17.933s to 20.221s
because agent work varies. This establishes a startup saving of about
one second, not a consistent total-reply speedup. A real candidate
follow-up passed in 20.146s and resumed the same saved session. The
loopback fixture makes no external model requests; failed initial probes
remain retained.
- The startup change passes 107 focused runtime/effort/lease tests, 53
profile checks (one skipped), TypeScript checking and the
TypeScript-only runtime build. Native hire fixture checks pass 70 tests;
their first local run retained a socket-hangup failure and stale
OpenCode expectation, both accounted for before the passing rerun.
Broader required checks run in cloud CI.

## Risks

- Missing packages, authentication rejection, unsupported settings and
unavailable models must fail explicitly. Existing agents retain saved
execution; explicit runner changes use existing revision/session
invalidation.
- Subscription follow-up remains unverified; remaining live acceptance
uses API keys per human steering. Historical accounting holds and the
separate $50 ceiling remain intact.
- The subscription acceptance limit remains explicit for review. No
Claude database migration is introduced.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip ccbfefef5f test(ui): retire 33 duplicate executions and share render setup (#16072)

5acf56658b feat(onboarding): first task opens as a chat with a chief of staff (#13068)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Onboarding ends by handing a new user to their first agent on a
seeded first task
> - Today the wizard asks for a mission up front, the UI composes what
the agent is told, and the agent starts running before the user says
anything
> - New users get a cold, ticket-shaped start, and nobody can edit the
agent's brief or persona without a code change
> - This pull request makes the first task a short chat: a four-step
wizard, a chief-of-staff persona, a greeting plus a two-option opening
card, server-owned markdown texts, and no run until the user answers
> - It also gives question cards one consistent action row (Cancel /
Skip / Next), makes agent hires idempotent within a run, and turns the
Paperclip Runner flag on by default for self-hosted instances
> - The benefit is a first run the user steers, with texts a board
operator can edit as markdown

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this change. The feature request
fields follow.

Related PRs and issues:

- Refs #11043 — an earlier draft of the first-task onboarding
experience. This PR supersedes it.
- Refs #11280 — a report about the onboarding first-task route test.
This PR extends that test file.

### Subsystem affected

Onboarding wizard, the seeded first task and its texts, task-chat
question cards, agent hiring, and the instance experimental settings.

### Problem or motivation

The onboarding wizard collects a mission through two extra steps and a
questionnaire. The UI then composes the first agent's instructions and
the first task description from those answers. The first task wakes the
agent at once, so the agent runs and posts before the user types a word.
Board operators cannot change the greeting, the brief, or the persona
without editing TypeScript. Question cards in chat behave differently
per adapter, and a single-select pick submits on click. A misread hire
response could create a duplicate agent that the creating agent cannot
remove.

### Proposed solution

Reduce the wizard to four steps and stop the UI from authoring agent
texts. Move the greeting, the brief, the chief-of-staff persona, and the
opening question into markdown and JSON files that the server loads at
runtime. Seed the persona onto the first agent through an explicit hire
marker. Do not wake the first task until the user answers the opening
card or types. Give every question card the same Cancel / Skip / Next
actions. Add an experimental toggle that switches the single-task
proposal between one confirmation card and a plan document with a
checkbox card. Make agent hires idempotent within a run.

### Alternatives considered

- Keep the mission questionnaire and feed it into the brief. Rejected:
the agent asks better questions in chat, and the wizard gets shorter.
- Keep the first task open-ended with a plain composer. Rejected: a
two-option card gives the user a clear first move.
- Derive the plan-document behaviour from the user's intent only.
Rejected in favour of an explicit experimental toggle so operators can
choose.
- Key the "pick does not submit" behaviour off the presence of a submit
label. Rejected: several adapters set a submit label on single-select
cards, and their cards would change behaviour.

### Roadmap alignment

`ROADMAP.md` lists no planned core work on onboarding or the first task.
This change refines the existing flow and does not duplicate planned
work.

## What Changed

- Wizard: four steps (Name your organization, Create your first agent,
Connect a model, Review). The front door and both mission steps are
removed with their state and saved-progress keys. The UI no longer
composes the first agent's instructions or the first task description.
- Server-owned texts: the greeting, the brief with two proposal
variants, the chief-of-staff persona, the opening question, and a README
live in `server/src/onboarding-assets/first-task/` and load at runtime.
The create route stores the assembled brief and ignores any client
description.
- Persona seed: an `onboardingFirstAgent` marker on the hire lets the
server seed the chief-of-staff persona over the first agent's entry
file. Board-authored hires only. The persona tells the agent the hire
response shape and to list agents before it acts on an unclear result.
- No auto-run: the first task does not queue an assignment wake. The
stranded-assignment reconciler leaves it idle until a user comment or an
answered card exists.
- Opening card: the server seeds an `ask_user_questions` card right
after the greeting with two options: "Interview me and propose a plan
and an agent team to execute it." and "I have a task in mind" with free
text. Answering wakes the agent.
- Experimental toggle `enableFirstTaskPlanProposal` (default off): the
single-task proposal is one confirmation card, or a plan document plus a
checkbox card when on.
- Question cards: every `ask_user_questions` card renders Cancel, Skip,
and Next (the submit label on the last question). Skip hides on required
questions. Picking an option no longer advances or submits by itself.
- Wizard guards: the dashboard's agentless offer ignores a cached empty
agent list while a refetch is in flight. The hire step adopts an agent
that already carries the typed name instead of hiring "Name 2".
- Agent hires are idempotent within a run: a retry of the identical
request under the same run id returns the existing agent with `200` and
`idempotent: true`. The fingerprint covers the whole validated request,
so a corrected payload is a new hire. Lookup, create, and activity
record run under one lock per company and run, so overlapping retries
cannot both create.
- The Paperclip Runner experimental flag defaults to on for self-hosted
instances. Cloud keeps its declared default: a managed instance whose
tenant row and managed overlay omit the flag resolves it to off.
- Question cards: a send that finds an earlier required answer missing
returns to that question with a message instead of failing silently.
- The two onboarding e2e specs follow the new wizard: the front door and
growth intake shots are gone, and the planning-mode spec dismisses the
opening card before it reads the composer.
- Docs: `docs/board-operator/editing-first-task-texts.md` explains how
to edit the texts and the toggle.

## Verification

Commands, run from the repo root:

```
pnpm -r --filter './packages/*' --filter '!@paperclipai/paperclip-runner' build
pnpm --filter ./packages/shared typecheck
pnpm --filter ./ui typecheck
pnpm --filter ./server exec tsc --noEmit
pnpm check:token-gates
pnpm --filter ./ui exec vitest run OnboardingWizard onboarding QuestionForm InteractionCard ProtocolCard TaskChatComposer Dashboard feature
PAPERCLIP_IN_WORKTREE=false pnpm --filter ./server exec vitest run onboarding-first-task heartbeat-process-recovery agent-hire-idempotency instance-settings agent-skills-routes issue-onboarding onboarding-greeting --testTimeout=90000
```

Results on this branch:

- Typecheck is clean for shared, ui, and server.
- Token gates: 4 of 4 clean.
- UI: 344 tests pass across 23 files.
- Server: all suites pass. The first test in `agent-skills-routes` has
its own 10 s cap and needs about 15 s on my laptop for the app cold
start. It passes with a longer cap. This PR does not change that cap.

Manual steps on a dev instance:

1. Open `/onboarding`. Confirm four steps: Name your organization,
Create your first agent, Connect a model, Review.
2. Finish the wizard. Confirm the first task shows the chief-of-staff
greeting and the opening card with two options. Confirm no run starts.
3. Pick "Interview me…". Confirm no run starts. Press Continue. Confirm
a run starts and an interview card of 3–4 questions arrives.
4. On a fresh organization, pick "I have a task in mind", type a task,
and press Continue. Confirm a proposal arrives as one confirmation card.
5. Turn on Settings → Experimental → "First task: propose with a plan
document" and repeat step 4. Confirm a plan document and a checkbox card
arrive.
6. Visit the dashboard after the hire. Confirm the wizard does not
reopen and one agent exists.
7. Open any question card. Confirm Cancel returns the plain composer
with the card still pending, Skip advances an optional question, and
Next moves to the next question.

## Risks

- `pnpm dev` now builds the runner daemon because the Paperclip Runner
flag is on by default. Developers without a Rust toolchain must set
`PAPERCLIP_RUNNER_BINARY` or turn the flag off. Self-hosted instances
that never set the flag now let qualified agents use the runner.
- The wizard drops the mission steps and their saved-progress keys. A
user who is mid-wizard on an older build restarts at step 1 after an
upgrade. Existing organizations are not touched.
- The first task no longer runs on its own. A user who neither answers
the card nor types sees no agent activity. This is intended.
- The persona seed applies only to hires that carry the marker from the
wizard. API hires are unchanged.
- Hire idempotency is scoped to one run id and to the exact request.
Retries across runs, or with a changed payload, still create a second
agent. The lock is per server process, which matches how an instance
serves its API.
- Single-select question cards no longer submit on pick. Users of
adapters that relied on that behaviour now press Next.
- No database migrations.

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic) through Claude Code. `claude-fable-5-1` with
extended thinking, tool use, and code execution wrote most commits.
`claude-opus-4-8` wrote the toggle, texts, wizard, and idempotency
commits, as the `Co-Authored-By` trailers show.

Tonio 1a74719309 feat(onboarding): the connect step signs in from its own button (#12801)
Connect starts the sign-in; the card that appears is the sign-in rather
than an offer of one; success advances to Review rather than reporting
itself. The two logins end in different places and the button says which:
Claude submits a code back here, so it spins on "Connecting"; OpenAI
finishes in another tab, so it stays a still, disabled Next until the
poll lands.

AdapterLoginPanel grows autoStart / onCancel / onConnected / chrome
rather than a second implementation — the session start, both polls, the
server deadline, the one-shot completion read and the unmount release are
the parts onboarding needs unchanged. Every prop is off by default, so
the agent form and the new-agent page render what they did before.

Claude's code auto-submits on the paste, not on every change:
isValidBrowserCode accepts any printable ASCII from one character up, so
a value-driven submit fired on the first keystroke of anyone who typed.

Also orders the OpenAI card and the settings displayed-code panel
code-above-link, with the instruction worded to match, and releases the
displayed-code session on unmount so an abandoned login stops holding the
one-per-owner reservation.

TonioandClaude Fable 5 141c5b1340 feat(onboarding): Figma pass over the tenant arc (#12726)
Takes the four tenant onboarding steps to the design, and makes the model
choice explicit.

**Nothing is preselected on the connect step.** It arrived with a source
already chosen, which made the row read as a confirmation rather than a
question and let a customer pass the step having touched none of it. The
step now opens unanswered and cannot advance until a source is selected in
the visible row.

Two defects fell out of that, both found by Greptile in review:

- A saved draft can name an adapter the row does not show — one the registry
  dropped, or one in the advanced list. The gate asked `sourcePicked`, which
  only means "a draft named something", so Next stayed live on a step that
  had visibly asked nothing and would hire against the hidden name. It now
  asks `sourceSelected`, read off the visible row, and the snap that replaces
  an unofferable adapter clears the pick rather than presenting its
  replacement as chosen.
- Cmd+Enter bypassed that gate entirely, because the condition was written
  out twice and drifted. Both paths now ask one predicate.

Also: selection is a fill rather than a border; the input canvas opens only
for a chosen source; the close control is gone from every step (nothing
downstream of the connect step works until a model is connected); the arc
draws to the design's 424px column with a filled 44px name field; the CTA
reads "Next" through the arc and "Get started" at the end; the login spinner
reads "Preparing..."; the OAuth panels number their fields and show the URL
above the code.

Storybook: the arc stories waited for a button named "Connect" and had been
silently rendering the wrong step since the CTA was renamed. They now wait on
the destination heading. Three e2e specs had the same fault and now select a
source before advancing.

One test was removed rather than replaced — `hydrates again when the same
company comes back through onboarding` drove the close control, and three
substitutes each passed against a wizard with the behaviour deleted. The
reason is recorded where it stood.

Known and not fixed here: SidebarCompanyMenu opens the wizard at step 1 for
"create a new organization", and with no exit an existing user who changes
their mind is trapped.

TonioandClaude Fable 5 889f5853f9 Onboarding: count the whole walk on a cloud tenant (#12706)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A cloud customer meets it as one walk that crosses two applications:
Cloud names the organization, then hands off to the tenant for the
agent, the model and the review
> - The tenant's progress strip counted only its own three steps, so the
count restarted at the crossing — four dots on the naming screen, then
three beginning again at one
> - The strip that spans the whole walk already existed and simply was
not chosen on that path, which made the walk read as two products rather
than one
> - This pull request picks the four-step strip when the run came from
Cloud, so the count runs 1, 2, 3, 4 straight through
> - The benefit is that the hand-off stops announcing itself

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The onboarding progress strip on a cloud tenant. It restarted its count
at the hand-off from Cloud, so a customer went from "1 of 4" to "1 of 3"
mid-walk.

**Subsystem affected**
Tenant onboarding wizard — `ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.tsx`.

**Current behavior**
`showsAgentArcStepper` is `isAgentArcStep && entryStep >= 3`. Every run
entering on the agent step gets the three-step strip, including a cloud
tenant whose organization was named one screen earlier in Cloud.

**Proposed behavior**
A cloud tenant gets the four-step strip, positioned 2, 3 and 4. A
self-hosted run entering on the same step keeps three.

**Reason and benefit**
The count describes the walk the customer is on rather than the half of
it this application happens to render.

**Breaking changes**
None. No API or schema change; the self-hosted path is unchanged.

## What Changed

- Adds `enteredFromCloud`, read from `enableManagedSandboxOnly` — the
cloud-tenant shape the connect step already resolves its login
environment through.
- Excludes that case from `showsAgentArcStepper`, so it falls to the
existing four-step strip. `ONBOARDING_STEP_LABELS` and
`onboardingStepPositionFor` already produce 2, 3 and 4; neither needed
changing.
- Widens the experimental-settings query from step 4 to steps 3–5, so
the strip can read it on every step of the arc.
- Adds tests for both strip lengths.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run src/components src/adapters storybook` in `ui/` —
2309 tests pass.
- `pnpm typecheck` in `ui/` — clean.
- Storybook, `Onboarding/Agent arc`: its fixture is cloud-shaped, so the
three steps now announce "Step 2 of 4", "Step 3 of 4" and "Step 4 of 4"
with four dots.
- The two new tests fail without the change — the cloud case reports
`expected 'Step 1 of 3' to be 'Step 2 of 4'`.

## Risks

- **The two runs entering on the agent step are genuinely different, and
only one signal separates them.** A cloud tenant walked a naming screen
in Cloud; a self-hosted company with no agents walked nothing before
this. Getting it backwards would either restart the count or credit a
step nobody walked. Both directions are now tested, which they were not
before — the suite covered `agentArcStepFor` but nothing asserted which
strip renders.
- `enableManagedSandboxOnly` is being read as a proxy for "came from
Cloud". It is the same signal the connect step already trusts for its
environment, so this does not introduce a new dependency, but it is
inference rather than a fact passed at the hand-off. If the step count
ever needs to vary, Cloud should seed the position explicitly instead.
- The widened query means the value can be unresolved on first paint,
and the strip briefly renders three dots before settling to four. The
query key is shared and usually already cached, so this is rare rather
than routine — worth watching on staging, and the fix if it shows is to
hold the strip until the value resolves.
- Cosmetic only. Nothing here changes which steps run, what they
collect, or where the walk goes.

DottaandPaperclip dda4dff645 fix(onboarding): restore browser launch and gate canaries (#12667)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The onboarding command starts the local server and opens the
first-run wizard.
> - Interactive onboarding stopped opening the browser by default.
> - Organization creation could also succeed in the API while the wizard
stayed on the name step.
> - The npm canary workflow did not prove that the published package
could complete this path.
> - This pull request repairs the startup and organization transitions
and adds an exact-version canary smoke gate.
> - The benefit is a quickstart that works for users and is tested after
each canary publish.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #12557 covers a separate final-route onboarding handoff.

**What happened?**

Interactive `paperclipai onboard` runs did not open the onboarding page.
The organization API request could succeed while a same-company context
update caused the wizard to stay on the organization step. The canary
release lane did not test the exact published npm package through this
path.

**Expected behavior**

Interactive onboarding must open the browser once. A successful
organization request must advance to the first-agent step when the
surrounding context adopts the same organization. Each published canary
must install in a clean environment and reach the model connection step.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run `npx paperclipai@canary onboard --data-dir "$(mktemp -d
/tmp/paperclip-canary.XXXXXX)"` in an interactive terminal.
2. Enter an organization name while the company context refreshes from
the create response.
3. Observe that the browser does not open or that the wizard can remain
on the organization step after the API creates it.
4. Inspect the canary release lane and observe that no post-publish
onboarding test runs against the exact npm version.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The issue reproduced with `2026.901.0-canary.8` and the source state
before this pull request.

**Deployment mode**

Local trusted quickstart with embedded PostgreSQL. The install source
can be npm or a source checkout.

## What Changed

- Open the browser once for interactive foreground onboarding.
- Preserve explicit browser opt-outs and restore the prior environment
value after startup.
- Accept a same-company context update after organization creation and
reject a different-company takeover with an explicit error.
- Export the exact canary version from the publish job.
- Install and test that exact npm version in a clean Playwright smoke
job through the "Connect a model" step.
- Upload server logs, traces, screenshots, and the Playwright report
when the canary smoke fails.
- Document the interactive default and headless opt-outs.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run cli/src/__tests__/onboard.test.ts
ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.step.test.tsx --reporter=dot` passes
with 37 tests.
- `node --test scripts/__tests__/release-verify-workflow.test.mjs`
passes with 9 tests.
- `pnpm exec playwright test --config tests/e2e/playwright.config.ts
tests/e2e/onboarding.spec.ts` passes with 2 tests.
- `PAPERCLIPAI_VERSION=2026.901.0-canary.8 pnpm run
test:canary-onboarding-smoke` passes against the published npm package.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` passes.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passes.
- `pnpm build` passes.
- A fresh interactive source run opens the browser and reaches "Connect
a model" after organization and agent naming.

## Risks

- Low risk. Automatic browser opening only applies to interactive
foreground onboarding.
- `PAPERCLIP_NO_BROWSER=1` and `PAPERCLIP_OPEN_ON_LISTEN=false` keep
headless runs silent.
- A different organization context still blocks the pending create
transition.
- The canary package is immutable before the smoke runs. A smoke failure
leaves the package published but makes the release workflow red.
- This change does not modify REST APIs, database schemas, or shared
data types.

deployment snapshot or context-window size. The model used reasoning,
browser automation, repository tools, shell commands, code editing, and
test execution.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip d9449e636e feat(onboarding): sign in to an agent provider during onboarding (#12440)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - New organizations create their first agent through the onboarding
wizard
> - The wizard does not show provider sign-in when a host credential is
absent or unknown
> - The create step also gives unclear feedback when the provider needs
authentication
> - This pull request adds a safe auth signal and a provider sign-in
step for sandbox drivers
> - The benefit is a clearer onboarding path with no token or account
data in the signal

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting (server API, shared types, and UI)

**Problem or motivation**

The onboarding wizard can fail when the selected provider needs
authentication. It does not tell the person how to complete sign-in.

**Proposed solution**

Add a status-only provider auth signal. Show the sign-in panel for
sandbox drivers when the signal says `absent` or `unknown`. Apply a
stored Claude login to the new agent and block creation when the adapter
test reports missing authentication.

**Alternatives considered**

The wizard could hide the sign-in panel when the signal read fails. This
would hide a needed action, so this pull request shows the panel when
the signal is unknown.

**Roadmap alignment**

The change supports the roadmap goal for scoped and audited credential
bindings.

**Additional context**

The auth signal returns only `present`, `absent`, or `unknown`. It never
returns a token, identifier, or account name.

## What Changed

- Add `GET /api/companies/:companyId/adapters/:type/auth-signal` with
company and permission checks.
- Add shared auth-signal types and the UI query path.
- Apply a stored Claude login by reference without reading its token.
- Show the provider sign-in panel only for sandbox drivers with
interactive terminal support.
- Block agent creation when the provider test reports missing
authentication.
- Add route, wizard, and end-to-end test coverage.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test adapter-auth-signal-routes`
passes 50 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui test OnboardingWizard` passes 69 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec tsc --noEmit` exits with code 0.
- The `e2e_shards` lane runs `tests/e2e/onboarding.spec.ts`.

## Risks

The route reads a host-local readiness signal. It returns `unknown` on
read errors and never exposes credential data. The UI may add a sign-in
step when the signal is unavailable.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-5, extended reasoning, tool use, and code execution.
The exact context window was not provided.

TonioandClaude Opus 5 eb86fcd498 The agent, drawn as itself (#12274)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A new customer's first session ends in the tenant's agent arc:
create an agent, connect a model, review
> - Walking it turned up questions the arc had no business asking — a
role picker using a vocabulary the customer has not been given, a model
picker asking them to judge models they have not met — and chrome
restating what they had just watched happen
> - Each one costs a first-session customer attention at the exact
moment they are deciding what this product is
> - This pull request cuts the arc to what it must ask, and draws the
agent as itself so the arc has a visible subject
> - The benefit is three steps that each ask one thing, ending on an
agent that is visibly ready

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. The changes come from walking the sign-up arc
end to end.

**What happened:**
The agent step asks for a role from a fixed enum before asking for a
name. The model step shows two "Recommended" badges (on both options),
an "Adapter type" eyebrow, and a model picker. The review step lists a
three-row checklist of work the customer just performed. The progress
strip is a full-width segmented bar.

**Expected behavior:**
The agent step asks for a name. The model step offers the two harnesses
and hides the rest behind advanced settings. The review step says the
agent is ready. The strip counts three discrete steps.

**Steps to reproduce:**
1. Sign up and enter the tenant wizard on the agent arc.
2. Observe the role select above the optional name field.
3. Continue to the model step: both options carry a "Recommended" badge,
and a model picker sits below.
4. Continue to review: a checklist restates the organization name,
agent, and model.

**Additional context:**
The brand pill assets (`pill-1-dormant.svg`, `pill-1-alive.svg`) are
transcribed verbatim into a component rather than approximated. The role
removal exposed a latent silent-failure path — see Risks.

## What Changed

- `PillGuy` renders the brand pill in two states; the arc holds one
instance, dormant through create and connect, alive on review.
- The agent step asks for a name only. The name is required; the role
picker is gone.
- `DEFAULT_AGENT_ROLE` (`general`) backs every onboarding hire, and
`agentRole` now defaults to it rather than empty.
- The model step drops both "Recommended" badges, the "Adapter type"
eyebrow, and the model picker; "More Agent Adapter Types" becomes
"Advanced settings"; the sub-line becomes "Paperclip works with your
existing subscription or API keys."
- The review step drops its checklist; the heading becomes "Let's get
started..." with "[name] is ready to work!".
- The progress strip renders three left-aligned dots at the previous
gap.
- Five e2e specs and both wizard unit suites migrate off
`#onboarding-agent-role`.

## Verification

Run the tenant suite:

```
cd ui && npx vitest run
```

- 4398 tests pass across 474 files; `npx tsc --noEmit` clean.
- Walked live in a local instance: agent step (dots, dormant pill, name
placeholder), model step (no badges/eyebrow/picker, "Advanced
settings"), review (pill alive, new copy, no checklist).
- The retargeted role test asserts the hire payload carries `role:
"general"` and the typed name — it is the test that catches the silent
failure below.

## Risks

- **A latent silent failure, now closed.** `handleGiveHeartbeat` returns
early when `agentRole` is empty. With the picker removed and no default,
Connect would have hired nobody and shown no error. The default closes
it; the guard stays for any future path that clears the role.
- **Behavioral change:** every onboarding hire is filed as `general`
rather than a chosen role. The role remains editable in the app.
- **Behavioral change:** the model is no longer chosen during
onboarding. Every adapter offered here resolves its own default in
`buildAdapterConfig`, and the model is changeable later.
- **Assets:** the pill carries its own gradient fills and does not
follow the theme. That is deliberate — the agent looks like itself on
either ground.

TonioandClaude Opus 5 3ff636bc48 Drop the mission step from the wizard arc (#11935)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - New customers arrive through an onboarding arc that spans Paperclip
Cloud and the tenant app
> - Cloud's naming screen stopped asking for the company mission, but
the tenant wizard still decided its first step by asking whether the
company had one
> - Every Cloud-created company therefore looked mission-less on
arrival, so every walk detoured through a "Define your mission" screen
the design had already removed
> - This pull request removes that step from the arc, and makes step 1
create the company itself
> - The benefit is a shorter arc that matches the design, and a
three-step progress strip that now counts the steps that exist

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. The problem was found by walking staging end to
end.

**What happened:**
A new customer signs in, names their organization, and waits for it to
build. The tenant wizard then asks "Define your mission" before it asks
for the first agent. Cloud no longer collects a mission, so this screen
appears for every new customer.

**Expected behavior:**
The wizard asks for the first agent, the model, and a review. The
progress strip counts three steps.

**Actual behavior:**
The wizard asks for the mission first. The progress strip counts five
segments, because the run does not enter on the agent arc.

**Additional context:**
Three merged pull requests built the mission-based step choice this
change removes: #11352, #11416 and #11429. The mission is now collected
later, inside the tenant app, so onboarding does not ask for it at all.

## What Changed

- `onboardingStepForCompany` always returns the agent step. The
`companyHasMission` parameter is removed, because it cannot change the
answer.
- `resolveRouteOnboardingOptions` no longer accepts `companyHasMission`.
- The dashboard no longer waits for the goal lookup before it opens the
wizard. That wait only chose a step, and the step is now fixed.
- Step 1 creates the company in a new `handleCreateCompany`. Company
creation used to sit at the end of `handleConfirmMission`.
- No company goal is written during onboarding.
- The three-step strip now shows on the agent, model and review steps,
because every Cloud-first run enters on the arc.
- The full-length bar drops its second segment. No run can fill it.
- The grow path keeps its step 2 questionnaire. Only the create path
skips ahead.
- Back from the agent step goes to the screen the run came from.
- Four end-to-end specs no longer drive the wizard through the mission
step.

## Verification

Run the tenant test suite:

```
cd ui && npx vitest run
```

- 4356 tests pass. 471 files pass.
- `npx tsc --noEmit` reports no errors.
- Fault injection: forcing `skipsMissionStep` to `true` fails the grow
questionnaire test. Removing the Back rule fails the Back test. Both
tests fail on the exact defect they guard.
- The three-step strip is asserted by an existing test. It checks `Step
1 of 3` and `aria-label="Create your first agent"`.

Manual check on staging after the paired Cloud change:

1. Open a new incognito window.
2. Sign in with a new account.
3. Name the organization.
4. Confirm the wizard shows "Create your first agent" and "Step 1 of 3".

## Risks

- **Behavioral change.** Onboarding no longer writes a company goal. An
agent hired during onboarding starts without a seeded mission. This is
intended. The mission moves to the tenant app.
- **Dead code.** `ONBOARDING_MISSION_STEP` and the mission screen stay
in the codebase, but nothing in the app opens them. They wait for the
surface that collects the mission later.
- **Grow path.** The grow path is unchanged, but it shares step 2 with
the removed screen. New tests cover it.
- **Superseded work.** #11352, #11416 and #11429 tuned the mission-based
step choice. This change removes the branch they tuned.

TonioandClaude Opus 5 3d366ba15f Rebuild the onboarding agent arc on the prototype's step design (#11905)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The onboarding wizard in `ui/` hires that first agent. It runs three
steps: create the agent, connect a model, and review
> - A standalone prototype holds the agreed design for these steps.
#10786 ported that prototype, but #11067 reverted it in full because the
port deleted `OnboardingWizard.tsx` while four pull requests were
editing that file
> - Those four pull requests have since merged. The revert said the port
can "re-land incrementally", and this is that re-land
> - This pull request takes the presentational layer from the prototype
only. It keeps master's wizard as the source of behaviour, so the eight
onboarding fixes merged since the revert stay in place
> - The benefit is that the three agent steps match the agreed design,
and no merged fix is lost to get there

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #10786 — the first attempt to land this design.
Refs #11067 — the revert that asked for it to re-land in smaller steps.

No public issue exists for the re-land. The problem is described below.

**Subsystem affected**

The `ui` package. The change touches the onboarding wizard, the agent
capsule,
and one Storybook story. It adds four small presentational components
under
`ui/src/components/onboarding/`.

**Current behavior**

The wizard's agent steps do not match the prototype. Each step shows a
small
heading beside an icon, above a form. The agent capsule sits below that
heading and does not animate. The agent gets a name but no role, so
every
first agent is created as `ceo`.

The wizard also shows a five-segment progress bar on these steps. A
walker who
enters on the agent step cannot reach the first two segments, so two of
the
five can never be filled.

**Proposed behavior**

The three steps use the prototype's card, its centred display heading,
and its
footer. One capsule sits above the heading and stays mounted across all
three
steps, so it reads as one object being built rather than three screens
that
each show their own.

A three-segment strip counts these steps for a walker who enters on
them. The
full-length bar stays for a walker who starts at step one, so that count
never
restarts partway.

The agent step gains a role. The options come from the agent role enum,
not
from the prototype's mock list.

**Reason and benefit**

The design is agreed and already built once. Re-landing it
presentation-first
keeps the behaviour that master gained after the revert.

Sourcing roles from the enum matters. The prototype offers "Coder",
which is
not a valid role — the enum uses `engineer` — so a walker who picked it
would
fail validation at hire time.

**Breaking changes**

None. The wizard keeps its routes, its draft format, and its hire call.
The
draft gains one optional field, `agentRole`. A draft saved before this
change
loads without it and falls back to the default.

## What Changed

- Add `ui/src/components/onboarding/`: `Stepper`, `OnboardingCard`,
`OnboardingHeading`, `FooterNav`, `AgentPreview`, and shared motion
constants
- Rebuild wizard steps 3–5 on those parts: one card, the capsule above a
  centred heading, and one footer
- Hold one `AgentCapsule` across the three steps. It springs in once,
then
  morphs from dashed slot to traced outline to filled
- Add `strokeDraw` to `AgentCapsule`. It traces the outline instead of
  cross-fading it. The dashed layer holds until the trace ends
- Add a role select to the agent step. Choosing a role fills the name,
unless
  the walker typed one
- Show one progress indicator per run, not two
- Label strip segments by destination, not by number
- Add `motion` to the `ui` package
- Add a Storybook story for the strip and the capsule states

## Verification

Run the tests:

```
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec tsc -p tsconfig.json --noEmit
```

4235 tests pass. The typecheck is clean.

To see the steps, start the app and open `/<PREFIX>/onboarding` for a
company
that has a company-level goal. The wizard opens on the agent step. Step
three
requires a hire.

Three absence assertions were checked by fault injection. Each one fails
when
the old behaviour returns:

- put the step counter back, and the "shows no step counter" test fails
- default `strokeDraw` to true, and the cross-fade test fails
- restore the timer gate on the strip, and the indicator test fails

## Risks

Low to medium.

`motion` is one new dependency in `ui`. #11067 gave dependency weight as
one
of three reasons to revert #10786, so this branch carries the smallest
set
that works. `motion` drives the step transitions and the capsule
choreography,
and three files import it.

An earlier revision of this branch also added `three` and
`@types/three`. Both
are removed. They existed for the 3D backdrop, which belongs to the auth
and
welcome screens rather than to these three steps, so nothing on this
branch
imported them.

The role select changes what the wizard sends. Before this change every
first
agent was hired as `ceo`. Now the walker chooses. The values come from
the
enum, so the server accepts all of them.

Steps 1 and 2 keep the older design. They do not run on the Cloud-first
path,
where the company already exists.

## Model Used

Claude Opus 5 (`claude-opus-5`), with extended thinking, tool use, and
code
execution. Used for the code, the tests, and this description.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 5bc6031f79 fix(server,ui,claude-local): verify auth on the adapter Test lane and enforce managed-sandbox tenant binding (#11810)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Adapter Test checks whether an agent adapter can run with its
configured environment, and every local-driver adapter (Claude, Codex,
Gemini, OpenCode, Pi, Cursor, etc.) shares this Test route and its UI
resolution logic
> - The Claude ACP Test lane could report pass without checking local or
remote authentication, and the shared Test route and UI had gaps in
environment binding, probe safety, and managed-sandbox resolution that
affect every adapter that uses the Test button, not only Claude
> - This pull request verifies authentication on every Claude ACP
target, and closes the shared Test-route/UI gaps: tenant-binding on the
route, a managed-sandbox-only redirect that matches the real run path,
and a three-tier environment resolution in the UI
> - The benefit is a truthful Test result with safer probe execution and
tenant isolation, for Claude specifically and for every other local
adapter that shares this Test surface

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The Claude ACP Test lane returned `status: "pass"` without checking
authentication for some local and non-sandbox targets. Separately, the
shared `/companies/:companyId/adapters/:type/test-environment` route —
used by every local-driver adapter, not only Claude — accepted a foreign
environment id, and its UI resolution did not mirror the server's
managed-sandbox-only redirect.

**Expected behavior**

The Test lane checks the resolved credential and hello probe for every
Claude ACP target. The shared adapter Test route rejects a foreign
environment before it reveals environment details or starts a lease, for
any adapter type. The Test's environment resolution (UI and server)
matches the real run's three-tier resolution, including the
managed-sandbox-only redirect.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run the Claude ACP Test lane against a local target without a valid
credential.
2. Run the adapter Test route with an environment id from another
company (any adapter type).
3. Observe the pass result on step 1, or the missing tenant-binding
rejection on step 2.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`933749e01f74e82ce5d315c071be534d04e01158`

**Deployment mode**

Local dev (`pnpm dev`) and server route tests.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Claude Code directly (the ACP auth-verification work). The
tenant-binding guard, managed-sandbox-only redirect, and UI three-tier
resolution apply to the shared adapter Test route and affect every
local-driver adapter (Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, Pi, Cursor, etc.), not
only Claude — see "What Changed" below for the split between Claude-only
and shared changes.

**Database mode**

Not database-related.

**Access context**

Both board and agent paths use the affected Test surface, for every
local-driver adapter.

**Additional context**

Two commits that were previously bundled into this PR — a
`plugin-worker-manager` duplex-channel frame-bound fix and a
`workspace-runtime` exit-persist crash fix — are unrelated to the
adapter Test lane and have been split out into their own PRs: #11860 and
#11861.

## What Changed

Claude-only (`packages/adapters/claude-local`):

- Verify `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` and run the hello probe for every
Claude ACP target.
- Keep `adapter_auth_missing` sandbox-only and report missing
non-sandbox credentials as a warning.
- Add a deny-by-default probe environment builder for the ACP and CLI
local probes.
- Log only fixed probe context and allowlisted classifications.
- Seed the host OAuth token into the hello probe environment.

Shared, cross-adapter (`server/src/routes/agents.ts`,
`ui/src/lib/adapter-test-environment.ts`,
`ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.tsx`,
`ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.tsx`):

- Add a company-binding guard and a binding assertion for the generic
`/companies/:companyId/adapters/:type/test-environment` route, so a
foreign-company environment id is rejected before any secret resolution
or sandbox lease, for every adapter type.
- Resolve all three server environment tiers (agent default, instance
default, local default) in the UI, and add the managed-sandbox-only
redirect so the Test probes the same target a real run would use.
- Enforce onboarding Test results: block hire on a failed environment
test.

- Add regression tests for authentication, tenant binding, probe safety,
diagnostics, and UI resolution.

## Verification

- Adapter suites pass for the Claude local server probe, remote, ACP,
auth, probe environment, and config paths.
- Server route tests pass, including the five tenant-binding cases.
- UI adapter Test environment resolver tests pass for all three
resolution tiers.
- Adapter package `tsc --noEmit` exits 0.
- Full CI must pass on this pull request.

## Risks

The probe environment now denies caller variables by default. A required
variable that is not on the allowlist could stop a probe from starting.
The route now rejects foreign environment ids with a fixed 403 response.
The managed-sandbox-only redirect changes where the Test (and the login
affordance) probes for every local-driver adapter under that policy, not
only Claude — operators running other local adapters under
managed-sandbox-only will see their Test target move from local to the
managed sandbox, matching what real runs already do. The change limits
secret and diagnostic exposure.

## Model Used

Original implementation: OpenAI Codex, GPT-5; exact context window not
exposed in that run; tool use and code execution.

This revision (commit split and title/description correction): Claude,
Sonnet 5 (claude-sonnet-5). The original title and description described
this PR as Claude-only; review found it also changes the shared adapter
Test route and UI resolution used by every local-driver adapter, and
carried two unrelated server fixes. Claude split those two commits into
#11860 and #11861 via `git rebase --onto` (verified byte-identical to
the original tree minus those commits) and rewrote this description to
reflect the actual scope. No functional code in this PR was authored by
Claude.

6542ad1f4d fix(onboarding): carry an existing company's mission into the wizard (#11416)
Ports the substance of #11259, which predated the recent onboarding work and
was still open. One of the parts it solves is a regression #11352 introduced.

A company that already has its mission opens on the agent step, which is the
point of #11352. What that missed is that the mission field is filled only by
the step being skipped, and that the field is not decoration:
`composeCeoInstructions` seeds the lead agent's instructions from it, and the
Review checklist reads it. So every Cloud-seeded company hired its lead agent
with no Mission line at all, having been routed there precisely *because* it
had a mission. Before #11352 those companies dead-ended on the mission step; a
dead end became a quiet data loss, which is worse, because it completes.

`selectExistingCompanyMission` reads the company's own goal back into the shape
the mission field holds, and the wizard hydrates from it - only when the field
is empty, so a customer editing their mission is never overwritten by the
stored copy. The marker recording that hydration travels with the field it
describes, cleared wherever `companyGoal` is.

`isExistingCompanyMissionUnresolved` holds the hire while that read is
outstanding, counting an in-flight refetch over cached goals as unresolved.
That is the rule #11382 settled on a day earlier for a different consumer -
`isFetching`, not `isLoading`, because retained data is not an answer to the
question being asked now. #11259 had it first, on 11 August.

`canGoBackFromOnboardingStep` and `canJumpToOnboardingStep` bound how far back
a run can walk by the step it entered on. The Back button already applied that
rule inline; the progress bar applied only the "already completed" half, so a
run holding a company could still jump to step 1 - the step whose job is to
create one. The entry step is captured once, when the wizard opens, for the
same reason the step itself is.

`planMissionPersistence` came with them and turned out to be required rather
than tidying. Hydration sets `createdCompanyGoalId` from the company's existing
goal, and confirming the mission read that id as "already written" and skipped
the write, discarding the customer's edit. That skip was safe only while the id
could arrive one way - by writing. A goal in hand now means update it.

Each piece was checked by removing it and confirming a specific case fails.
The hydration case asserts on `saveInstructionsFile`'s content, the actual
consumer, rather than on the mission textarea, because the entry path never
renders that field and the navigation bound now prevents reaching it. One
caveat recorded rather than smoothed over: the reopen case fails only when
both marker-clears are removed, since `reset()` also clears the company id and
the next introduction routes through `clearCompanyScopedState`. They are kept
as one invariant rather than one guard plus a coincidence.

ui typecheck clean; full ui suite 4004 pass. Two failures remain, in
IssueProperties and StatusCards/format; both are date-dependent, both
reproduce on master with these changes stashed, and neither file is touched
here.

TonioandClaude Opus 5 d95340b0b8 feat(ui): send a company with no agent into onboarding, at the right step (#11352)
A company with no agent cannot do anything: no runs, no tasks, nothing to
show. The dashboard says so in a banner with a link, which asks the customer
to notice a problem the product can fix for them. It is worse for a company
created by Paperclip Cloud: Cloud creates the company before the tenant
boots, so the companyless redirect never runs, and the customer arrives on an
empty dashboard straight out of a signup flow that already asked for a
mission.

The dashboard now opens onboarding when the agent list has loaded and is
empty, and onboarding opens on the agent step when the company already has
its mission — read from the company-level goal the seed writes, under the
query key the launch path already uses, so it shares a cache entry rather
than adding a fetch.

The step is decided once. `initialStep` is derived from the company list and
the goal list, so it changes on any retry, refetch or cache invalidation. An
effect that took it as a dependency called `setStep` on every one of those
and moved a customer who was already mid-flow. Gating the input only narrowed
that window; it could not close it. The step now belongs to the request that
opened the wizard: the effect reads it through a ref and is keyed on the
wizard opening or the company changing. `createdCompanyIdRef` beside it
already used this pattern for the same reason.

That exposed a path nothing had ever taken. A company reached the mission
step only by creating itself on step 1, so opening an existing company there
found code that had never run: `companyName` is only typed on step 1, and
both ways forward require it, so the step could not be completed at all; and
confirming advanced without writing anything, so the mission the customer
typed was discarded. Both fixed, and the write now reconciles against the
goal list rather than adding a second company goal, since the mission lookup
fails open and can send a company that has one back to that step.

Company-scoped state now stays with its company. `clearCompanyScopedState`
runs when the route replaces a company and when it withdraws one — the same
event, and clearing half of it left a goal id that made the next company skip
a mission it had never given. `stillTheSameCompany` guards all five async
writes, after the server work rather than before it, so a company switch
mid-flight cannot hand the new company the old one's goal, project, issue or
agent, and cannot leave a hired agent without its instructions file. The
keyboard path honours `loading` like every button already did.
`claimOnboardingOffer` makes onboarding an offer that stays declined for the
visit.

Route ownership is now recorded whenever the route names a company, including
one the wizard already holds. This changes a documented rule deliberately:
without it a self-created company was never withdrawn, so `/onboarding` would
show "create a company" while still holding the previous one and write the
customer's new mission into it.

Tested at the seam, because every defect on this branch lived between a value
and its consumer and the predicate tests passed at every stage.
`OnboardingWizard.step.test.tsx` renders the real wizard against the real
resolver and the real mission hook across 18 cases, and each was
fault-injected against the code it replaces rather than trusted on a green
run. That caught a case that passed against the broken code, and a race in
one of the guards.

ui typecheck clean; full ui suite 3923 pass, with one timezone-dependent
IssueProperties failure present on this branch's base in a file this change
does not touch. All CI gates green; Greptile 5/5.
