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

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

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

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

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

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

## What Changed

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

## Verification

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

## Risks

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

## Model Used

- Claude (Anthropic) — Claude Fable 5, model ID `claude-fable-5`,
extended thinking enabled, running in Claude Code with agentic tool use.

1fe89eb8f8 Enforce durable external-wait liveness (#9373)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The heartbeat/recovery subsystem decides whether an agent run has a
durable continuation path after the process stops.
> - External waits need stricter semantics than local background
watchers: a killed local process is not durable, while a first-class
blocker/monitor/scheduled wake is.
> - Without that distinction, recovery can repeatedly treat
adapter-failed continuations as live work and obscure the real reason a
task stopped.
> - This pull request adds explicit durable external-wait liveness
handling and documents the expected execution semantics.
> - It also improves operator-visible recovery evidence so invalid
external-wait paths explain why they were rejected.
> - The benefit is clearer recovery behavior, fewer duplicate
continuation recoveries, and a safer contract for monitor-backed
external waits.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Refs #5978
- Related PRs: #4988, #7495, #8502

## What Changed

- Added durable external-wait liveness classification so
local/background watchers are not accepted as durable live paths after
the owning process exits.
- Preserved first-class blocker/monitor/scheduled wake paths as valid
external-wait continuations.
- Added backend regression coverage for killed watcher failure,
monitor-backed durable wait resumption, normal completion, blocker
behavior, and no duplicate recovery.
- Added adapter utility coverage for terminal cleanup behavior used by
local process adapters.
- Surfaced invalid external-wait recovery evidence in the recovery
action card and run ledger.
- Updated execution semantics documentation and the V1 implementation
contract.

## Verification

- `pnpm check:token-gates` passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `node scripts/run-vitest-stable.mjs --mode general --group
general-server` equivalent lane passed in CI-clean env: 238 files, 2164
tests passed, 1 skipped.
- `node scripts/run-vitest-stable.mjs --mode general --group
general-workspaces-a` passed in fully Paperclip-env-clean env: UI 305
files / 2430 tests; CLI 43 files / 230 tests.
- `node scripts/run-vitest-stable.mjs --mode general --group
general-workspaces-b` passed in fully Paperclip-env-clean env:
shared/db/adapters/plugin packages all green.
- `node scripts/run-vitest-stable.mjs --mode serialized` passed in fully
Paperclip-env-clean env: 107 serialized server suites green, including
84/84 heartbeat-process-recovery tests.
- `pnpm build` passed in fully Paperclip-env-clean env.

Notes: running `pnpm test:run` directly inside the Paperclip heartbeat
environment exposed local harness env contamination in existing tests
(`PAPERCLIP_CONFIG`, `PAPERCLIP_DB_BACKUP_DIR`, and
`PAPERCLIP_WORKTREE_START_POINT`). Re-running the same lanes with
inherited `PAPERCLIP_*` and port env removed produced the CI-equivalent
green results above.

## Risks

- Medium behavioral risk: this changes recovery classification for
stopped local external-wait processes, so adapters relying on unmanaged
background watchers must use blockers, monitors, scheduled wakes, or
explicit durable handoff instead.
- Low UI risk: recovery-card copy changes are covered by component tests
and Storybook screenshot QA.
- No database migration is included.

f3ca4d24bc fix: repair dirty/foreign-branch execution worktrees (#9297)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Execution workspaces are the bridge between Paperclip's control
plane and a local agent's checked-out repository state.
> - When a workspace is restored after a failed or interrupted run, the
recorded branch can disagree with the branch currently checked out on
disk.
> - A clean branch mismatch can be reconciled safely, but a dirty
mismatch needs a lossless path that does not discard uncommitted agent
work.
> - This pull request adds a quarantine-and-restore path that saves
dirty work to a rescue branch, restores the recorded branch, and exposes
the repair from the board UI and run page.
> - The benefit is that operators can recover wedged execution
workspaces without losing work or moving another live branch
unexpectedly.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this workspace-recovery failure, so
this PR includes the bug report inline.

**What happened**

A git worktree-backed execution workspace could become wedged when
Paperclip expected one branch but found a different checked-out branch
with dirty tracked or untracked files. The existing safe repair path
refused the restore, leaving the source task blocked with no lossless
one-click recovery path.

**Expected behavior**

Paperclip should preserve dirty work before restoring the recorded
workspace branch. If another live workspace claims the checked-out
branch, or an attached runtime service is active, the repair should
refuse with clear operator-facing evidence instead of risking work loss
or file contention.

**Steps to reproduce**

Create a git worktree execution workspace whose persisted branch name
differs from the checked-out branch, add dirty tracked or untracked
files in that worktree, then trigger workspace validation or use the
branch reconcile endpoint. Before this change, the dirty mismatch
remained blocked because Paperclip had no quarantine restore mode.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Observed on the pre-fix workspace-recovery implementation. Verified on
this PR head after rebasing onto current `master`.

**Deployment mode**

Local trusted development/worktree deployments using git worktree
execution workspaces and optional workspace runtime services.

## What Changed

- Added dirty-worktree quarantine repair that creates a rescue branch,
commits dirty tracked and untracked files there, restores the recorded
branch, writes audit comments/activity, and preserves the live foreign
branch ref.
- Added `quarantine_restore` branch reconcile API support,
recovery-action resolution, source-task wake behavior, execution-review
preservation, claimant refusal, runtime-service refusal, and coverage
for the non-transactional git ordering.
- Added board UI controls for the repair action in the recovery card
plus a compact failed-run workspace recovery surface that uses the same
reconcile handlers.
- Hardened Greptile follow-up cases by best-effort restoring the
recorded branch after a mid-sequence rescue commit failure and by
refusing quarantine restore while attached runtime services are active.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/execution-workspaces-service.test.ts -t
"quarantine_restore"`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts
-t "workspace dirty quarantine branch repair"`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-finalize-branch.test.ts -t
"repairs clean unrecorded branch drift|adopts unrecorded forward branch
drift"`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime-routes-authz.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- Earlier PR verification covered the route, service, heartbeat, UI
component, and run-page recovery surfaces; Cutter posted public preview
screenshots for the repair popover and run-page panel at
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/9297#issuecomment-4926934211.
- GitHub PR checks are green on
`dcac76b05f4cf6e1ee16544c2831d83c7857e475`.
- Greptile is 5/5 with zero annotations and no unresolved review threads
on `dcac76b05f4cf6e1ee16544c2831d83c7857e475`.

## Risks

- Moderate risk because the change intentionally runs git commands
against local worktrees; the implementation refuses dirty repair when
another claimant or active runtime service is detected and records
rescue refs for auditability.
- Compatibility / release-note callout for self-hosted operators:
existing instances that left `enableWorkspaceBranchReconcileForward`
unset now get automatic forward branch reconciliation during heartbeat
workspace recovery. Operators who want the previous advisory-only
behavior can set `experimental.enableWorkspaceBranchReconcileForward` to
`false`; dirty quarantine repair can likewise be disabled with
`experimental.enableWorkspaceDirtyQuarantineRepair: false`.
- If the git rescue succeeds but a later database write fails, the
worktree may already be restored while the recovery action remains open;
this ordering is documented in code because git side effects cannot
participate in the database transaction.
- UI risk is limited to the workspace recovery surfaces and covered by
component tests plus the existing Cutter visual preview.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5, with repository tool use,
shell execution, and local test execution. Earlier preserved commits on
this branch also show Claude Code / Claude Opus 4.8 assistance in their
commit metadata.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 4f5abf6007 feat(recovery-card): W7 reconcile-forward + break-glass actions
Adds the task-page recovery affordance for workspace branch divergence: reconcile-forward when ancestry is safe, and a break-glass override flow that requires explicit confirmation and a reason.

Includes client wiring for the existing reconcile-branch endpoint, issue-detail refresh after successful reconciliation, runtime-management gating for break-glass, and tests for action visibility, payloads, permission gating, and workspace-target selection.

696c694a58 feat(ui): recovery-card divergence diagnosis + one-click isolated re-issue
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents execute on isolated workspaces (git worktrees), each pinned
to a specific branch and commit at checkout time
> - When an agent's live checkout diverges from the recorded workspace
branch — either through a branch rename, a stale worktree, or a
concurrent git operation — Paperclip detects the mismatch and surfaces a
recovery card to the operator
> - But the existing recovery card showed a generic error with no
diagnostic context: it didn't display *which* branch was expected vs.
which was checked out, the commit SHAs involved, or whether the branches
share ancestry
> - Without that information operators cannot diagnose the root cause,
and the only recovery path was fully manual re-issue
> - This pull request extends `IssueRecoveryActionCard` for
`workspace_validation` / `git_worktree_branch_incoherence` recovery
kinds to render a divergence-diagnosis panel (expected branch, live
branch, short SHAs, ancestry-verdict badge, plain-language reason) and
adds a confirm-gated "Re-issue on isolated workspace" action that
creates a new task with `executionWorkspacePreference:
isolated_workspace` so the re-issued run cannot trip the same
branch-mismatch gate
> - The benefit is that operators can immediately see *why* a workspace
was declined and recover with a single click instead of having to
manually reconstruct the task

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #4757 (heartbeat re-wake doesn't reconcile working-tree HEAD
against ticket's expected branch — this PR surfaces the resulting
divergence to the operator and provides a one-click isolated re-issue
path)
Refs #8460 (workspace_validation_failed local-only project workspaces —
this PR extends the recovery card UI for this case)

**Subsystem affected:** ui/ — React + Vite board UI

**Problem or motivation:** When Paperclip records a workspace branch for
an agent run and the live checkout disagrees (diverged HEAD, renamed
branch, stale worktree), the issue recovery card surfaces a generic
`workspace_validation` error. The operator sees "run declined" but has
no visibility into the expected vs. actual branch, the relevant commit
SHAs, or whether the branches even share ancestry. There is no one-click
path to re-issue the task on a clean isolated workspace — the operator
must manually reconstruct the task from scratch.

**Proposed solution:** Extend `IssueRecoveryActionCard` to:
1. Render a divergence-diagnosis panel from the `recoveryEvidence`
field: expected branch, live branch, short SHAs for both, an
ancestry-verdict badge (`forward-only` / `diverged` / `ancestry
unknown`), and the server's `plainLanguageReason`.
2. Add Action 3 "Re-issue on isolated workspace" — a confirm-gated
button that calls `issuesApi.create` with `executionWorkspacePreference:
isolated_workspace` and `workspaceStrategy.baseRef` set to the live
branch (SHA fallback when detached). The current workspace is never
mutated.
3. Wire `onReissueIsolated` / `reissuePending` through `IssueChatThread`
→ `IssueDetail` so the operator sees an immediate success toast and is
navigated to the new task.

**Alternatives considered:** Showing divergence details only in a
tooltip (rejected — too easy to miss). Providing a "force-reset the
workspace" action (rejected — destructive, no audit trail, doesn't fix
stale-branch root cause). Isolated re-issue via isolated workspace was
the clearest safe path.

## What Changed

- `IssueRecoveryActionCard.tsx` — Added `DiagnosisPanel` sub-component
rendered for `workspace_validation` / `git_worktree_branch_incoherence`
recovery kinds: displays expected vs. live branch, short SHAs,
ancestry-verdict badge, and plain-language reason. Added Action 3
confirm-popover with `onReissueIsolated` callback and `reissuePending`
loading state. Kept existing Action 1 and Action 2 unchanged.
- `IssueChatThread.tsx` — Threaded `onReissueIsolated` and
`reissuePending` props down to `IssueRecoveryActionCard`.
- `IssueDetail.tsx` — Implemented `handleReissueIsolated`: calls
`issuesApi.create` with `executionWorkspacePreference:
isolated_workspace` + `workspaceStrategy.baseRef` derived from live
branch / SHA; shows a success toast and navigates to the new task on
completion.
- `IssueRecoveryActionCard.test.tsx` — Added 19 unit tests covering
diagnosis-panel rendering, verdict label rendering, base-ref derivation
(branch-first then detached-HEAD SHA fallback), and action gating.

## Verification

```bash
# Unit tests — 19/19 pass
pnpm vitest run ui/src/components/IssueRecoveryActionCard.test.tsx

# Typecheck — 0 new errors
pnpm typecheck
```

Manual browser validation deferred to QA — see Risks.

## Risks

- **Re-issue creates a new task** — the original task remains unchanged.
This is intentional (safe default), but operators should be aware both
tasks exist after re-issue.
- **Base-ref derivation falls back to the live HEAD SHA when detached.**
SHA-based worktrees are valid for isolated re-issue but may surprise
operators expecting a branch name.
- **Browser-level end-to-end validation not included here.** Toast,
navigation, and full create-flow are covered by integration QA in a
follow-up pass.
- **Low overall risk** — no new endpoints, no data mutations on existing
records, no PII or telemetry changes. Composes the existing
`issuesApi.create` endpoint; all new behavior is additive.

2e74d32871 PAP-10430: split Issue-to-Task copy migration (#7651)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The board UI is the operator surface where users create, assign,
monitor, and review work items.
> - The product language is moving toward "tasks" for user-facing work
items while the internal API and database still use "issues".
> - PR #7543 bundled this copy migration with broader
information-architecture work, which made the branch too large for
Greptile review.
> - This pull request peels the Issue-to-Task copy migration into a
smaller, independently reviewable change.
> - The benefit is clearer user-facing terminology, less agent confusion
via the Paperclip skill note, and a smaller PR that Greptile can review.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #7645
Refs #7543
Refs PAP-10430

This PR was split out of #7543 so the Issue-to-Task copy migration can
be reviewed separately and the remaining IA PR can fall under Greptile's
file limit.

## What Changed

- Preserves Scott Tong's original `PAP-57` copy-only commit, with author
and co-author credit intact, to rename user-facing "Issues" copy to
"Tasks" across the UI while keeping routes/API/internal symbols as
`issue`.
- Updates onboarding and release-smoke browser selectors from `Create &
Open Issue` to `Create & Open Task`.
- Adds a terminology note to `skills/paperclip/SKILL.md` clarifying that
task and issue refer to the same Paperclip work item.
- Resolves the only cherry-pick conflict by keeping current search
artifacts support and changing visible search copy to "tasks".

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build` passed.
- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/IssuesList.test.tsx ui/src/components/Sidebar.test.tsx
ui/src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx` passed: 4 files, 66 tests.
- `git diff --check origin/master...HEAD` passed.
- Diff is 80 files, below Greptile's 100-file limit.
- Before/after UI copy examples: "Issues" -> "Tasks", "New Issue" ->
"New Task", "Create & Open Issue" -> "Create & Open Task".

## Risks

- Medium copy-risk: this intentionally changes user-facing terminology
broadly while keeping internal issue identifiers and routes unchanged.
- Some docs and APIs still say `issue`; the skill note clarifies this so
agents do not treat task and issue as separate entities.
- Browser-level visual validation is expected from CI because this local
container is missing usable browser dependencies.

> For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and
discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

## Model Used

Scott Tong authored the original `PAP-57` copy migration, assisted by
Claude Opus 4.8 and Paperclip agents per the preserved commit metadata.
Codex / GPT-5-class coding agent with shell, GitHub CLI, and repository
access performed the PR split, conflict resolution, skill note, and
verification.

DottaandPaperclip 7428fb956f [codex] Guard git-sensitive adapter workspaces (#7644)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The affected subsystem is the heartbeat execution path that turns
issue assignment into adapter-backed work in a selected workspace.
> - PAP-10409 and sibling follow-ups failed before useful adapter output
because project/workspace identity became incoherent.
> - A project-workspace-linked child issue could keep
`projectWorkspaceId` / execution workspace state while losing
`projectId`, then a git-sensitive local adapter could fall through
toward an invalid fallback cwd.
> - Paperclip needs to treat coherent workspace identity as part of the
live-path contract, not only as post-failure cleanup.
> - This pull request documents that rule, repairs issue inheritance,
and blocks git-sensitive adapter launch before it can run from the wrong
cwd.
> - The benefit is a bounded recovery path: affected issues are repaired
explicitly, future malformed workspaces fail fast with a clear recovery
action, and the UI surfaces that reason.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #7646

Bug report fields:

- Summary: adapter-backed follow-up issues can fail before doing work
when issue creation/inheritance preserves workspace ids but drops
project identity.
- Affected issues: internal Paperclip issues PAP-10408 through
PAP-10412, especially PAP-10409.
- Steps to reproduce: create a project-scoped parent/follow-up tree
where a child issue keeps `projectWorkspaceId` or an inherited execution
workspace but has `projectId: null`, then launch a git-sensitive local
adapter such as `codex_local`.
- Expected behavior: Paperclip derives or preserves coherent project
identity during issue creation, and heartbeat refuses malformed
git-sensitive workspace launches with one clear recovery action.
- Actual behavior before this PR: the run could reach adapter bootstrap
with an incoherent workspace context and fail with git errors such as
`fatal: not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /srv)`.
- Root cause: child/follow-up issue inheritance preserved workspace
execution context without coherent project context. That let heartbeat
workspace resolution/adapter launch reach a fallback cwd instead of
refusing the malformed workspace state up front.

## What Changed

- Documented the adapter workspace-coherence live-path precondition in
`doc/execution-semantics.md`.
- Updated issue creation/inheritance so workspace-inheriting issues
preserve or derive project identity, while existing mismatch validation
still rejects incoherent project/workspace combinations.
- Added a heartbeat preflight guard for git-sensitive local adapters
that validates effective cwd, persisted workspace identity, project
workspace identity, and required git metadata before launch.
- Added `workspace_validation` recovery actions for this failure class
and ensured the source issue gets a visible, idempotent recovery
comment.
- Surfaced workspace-validation recovery state in issue rows, blocked
notices, and recovery action cards, including the manual-repair wake
policy label.
- Added focused regression coverage for issue inheritance, all heartbeat
workspace-validation guard branches, recovery display helpers, and UI
recovery components.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-session.test.ts`
  - Result: 1 test file passed, 68 tests passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/IssueRecoveryActionCard.test.tsx`
  - Result: 1 test file passed, 12 tests passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/IssueBlockedNotice.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueRecoveryActionCard.test.tsx`
  - Result: 2 test files passed, 18 tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
  - Result: passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-plugin-environment.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issues-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-workspace-session.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueBlockedNotice.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueRecoveryActionCard.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/recovery-display.test.ts`
- Result: 7 test files passed, 200 tests passed before the final
guard-branch additions; the changed server file was re-run above.
- UI coverage: `ui/storybook/stories/source-issue-recovery.stories.tsx`
contains rendered scenarios for the generic recovery chip,
workspace-validation recovery chip, blocked notice indicator, recovery
action card, and issue-row chip.
- Screenshot capture attempt: Storybook started successfully on
`http://127.0.0.1:6016/`, but screenshots could not be captured in this
runner because `agent-browser` launched an unusable Chrome binary and
Playwright Chromium failed on missing system library `libatk-1.0.so.0`;
the runner is non-root and lacks passwordless sudo for installing
browser dependencies.
- Hosted CI on final commit `969594e7` is green, including `verify`,
`Build`, `Typecheck + Release Registry`, `General tests (server)`,
workspace suites, serialized server suites, `Canary Dry Run`, and `e2e`.
- Roadmap checked: no duplicate roadmap item; this is a tightly scoped
reliability fix for existing heartbeat/workspace behavior.
- Duplicate PR search checked: no open PR matched `workspace coherence
adapter cwd`.

## Risks

- Medium risk: heartbeat launch is stricter for git-sensitive local
adapters and can now block malformed workspace states before adapter
execution.
- Mitigation: the guard is limited to local git-sensitive adapters and
records a source-scoped recovery action with structured evidence instead
of retrying indefinitely.
- Compatibility: valid project/workspace execution paths continue
normally; explicit project/workspace mismatches remain rejected.

DottaandPaperclip d734bd43d1 [codex] Roll up May 17 branch changes (#6210)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies, so agent
work needs visible ownership, recovery, and operator controls.
> - This local branch had accumulated several related control-plane
reliability and operator-experience fixes across recovery actions,
watchdog folding, model-profile defaults, mentions, markdown editing,
plugin launchers, and small UI polish.
> - The branch needed to be converted into a PR against the current
`origin/master` without losing dirty work or including lockfile/workflow
churn.
> - The safest standalone shape is a single rollup PR because the
recovery/server/UI files overlap heavily across the local commits and
splitting would create avoidable conflicts.
> - This pull request replays the local branch onto latest
`origin/master`, preserves the uncommitted work as logical commits, and
adds a Zod 4 validator compatibility fix found during verification.
> - The benefit is that the May 17 local branch can be reviewed and
merged as one coherent, conflict-free branch under the 100-file Greptile
limit.

## What Changed

- Rebased the local May 17 branch work onto current `origin/master` in a
dedicated worktree.
- Preserved and committed previously dirty changes for recovery retry
handling, plugin/sidebar launcher polish, and `.herenow` ignores.
- Added recovery-action behavior for returning source issues to `todo`
when retrying source-scoped recovery.
- Included the existing local recovery/liveness/watchdog fold, Codex
cheap-profile, markdown/mention, duplicate-agent, and UI polish commits
from the branch.
- Normalized shared validator `z.record(...)` schemas to explicit
string-key records for Zod 4 compatibility.
- Confirmed the PR has no `pnpm-lock.yaml` or `.github/workflows/*`
changes and stays below the 100-file Greptile limit.

## Verification

- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts`
- `npm run install` in
`node_modules/.pnpm/sqlite3@5.1.7/node_modules/sqlite3` to build the
local native sqlite3 binding after installing with scripts disabled
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts
packages/shared/src/project-mentions.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-model-profile.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-active-run-output-watchdog.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/plugin-local-folders.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueRecoveryActionCard.test.tsx
ui/src/components/Sidebar.test.tsx

ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownEditor.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/duplicate-agent-payload.test.ts
ui/src/pages/Routines.test.tsx`
- First pass: 13 files passed with 201 passing tests; 3 server files
failed before sqlite3 native binding was built.
- After rebuilding sqlite3:
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-model-profile.test.ts`,
`server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts`, and
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-active-run-output-watchdog.test.ts`
passed/loaded; embedded Postgres tests were skipped by the local host
guard.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`

## Risks

- Medium risk: this is a broad rollup PR across recovery semantics,
server tests, shared validators, and UI surfaces.
- Some embedded Postgres tests skipped locally due the host guard, so CI
should provide the stronger database-backed signal.
- UI changes were covered by component tests, but no browser screenshot
was captured in this PR creation pass.
- This branch may overlap with existing recovery/liveness PR work; merge
this PR independently or restack/close overlapping branches rather than
merging duplicate implementations together.

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent, tool-enabled local repository

DottaandPaperclip 0808b388ee [codex] Add source-scoped recovery actions (#5599)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is a control plane for autonomous AI companies, where work
must end with a clear disposition rather than ambiguous agent liveness.
> - Recovery currently detects stalled or missing-next-step issues, but
source issue recovery can become split across child recovery issues,
blockers, and comments.
> - That makes it harder for operators and agents to see who owns
recovery and what exact action is needed on the original issue.
> - Source-scoped recovery actions give the original issue a first-class
active recovery state with owner, evidence, wake policy, and resolution
outcome.
> - This pull request adds the recovery-action data model, backend
reconciliation and resolution APIs, and board UI indicators/actions.
> - The benefit is clearer stalled-work recovery without losing source
issue context or relying on comments as the liveness path.

## What Changed

- Added the `issue_recovery_actions` schema, shared
types/constants/validators, and an idempotent
`0084_issue_recovery_actions` migration ordered after current `master`
migrations.
- Updated stranded/missing-disposition recovery to create source-scoped
recovery actions, wake the recovery owner on the source issue, and avoid
locking the source issue for recovery-action wakes.
- Added API support for reading active recovery actions on issue
detail/list surfaces and resolving them with restored, blocked,
cancelled, or false-positive outcomes.
- Require blocked recovery resolutions to have an unresolved first-class
blocker, and removed the UI shortcut that could mark recovery blocked
without a blocker selection path.
- Surfaced recovery indicators/actions in the issue UI, blocker notices,
active run panels, issue rows, and Storybook coverage.
- Updated docs and focused tests for recovery semantics, ownership,
races, stale comments, and UI behavior.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueRecoveryActionCard.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueBlockedNotice.test.tsx ui/src/api/issues.test.ts`
— 5 files, 72 tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck` — passed, including
migration numbering check.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed.
- Follow-up verification after blocker-resolution guard: `pnpm exec
vitest run server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueRecoveryActionCard.test.tsx
ui/src/api/issues.test.ts` — 3 files, 27 tests passed.
- Follow-up `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed.
- Follow-up `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed.
- UI states are available in
`ui/storybook/stories/source-issue-recovery.stories.tsx`; screenshot
capture helper is `scripts/screenshot-recovery-card.cjs`.

## Risks

- Medium: recovery behavior changes from child recovery issue ownership
toward source-scoped actions, so operators may see stalled-work state in
new places.
- Migration risk is mitigated by using the next migration slot after
`master` and making the table/constraints/index creation idempotent for
anyone who previously applied the old branch-local
`0082_dizzy_master_mold` migration.
- Existing child recovery issue paths are still guarded for
already-created recovery issues, but new source-scoped flows should be
watched in CI and Greptile review.
