4d0847c4ca fix(server): settle external conversations from committed work (#17772)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/6/changes/paperclip/6
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and the tasks that they execute.
> - External conversations must become idle after an authorized response
is published and all related work is complete.
> - Native replay and stranded-task recovery still discover this
settlement work through recurring scans.
> - A new deadline worker must preserve response ordering, monitor
handoffs, and unfinished work.
> - This pull request gives settlement one shared readiness predicate
and activates its worker from committed changes.
> - Existing rows provide recovery truth. No new table or per-feature
timer is added.
> - The benefit is a settlement worker that becomes quiet and resumes
when relevant work changes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17758. This is slice 56. Slice 55 has merged. Related: #17606
(chat milestones), #17663 (bounded run reads), #17665 (monitor proof),
and #13809 (answered Slack conversation lifecycle). The provider
applicability remains Slack and Speko-owned conversations. This does not
extend Telegram settlement from #16559.

**What happened?**

Conversation settlement depended on periodic native replay and generic
task recovery. An exhausted monitor also cleared its schedule before
recovery admission. During that gap, an answered conversation could look
finished. Failed or deferred admission lost the monitor schedule.

**Expected behavior**

Relevant committed changes activate settlement. The worker uses the
owning service's evidence and becomes quiet when no settlement is owed.
Monitor recovery stays pending until admission, and restart does not
admit an already accepted recovery twice.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create an active external conversation with a successful run and an
authorized published response.
2. Keep execution, approval, a goal, or a monitor pending. Let the
settlement worker become quiet.
3. Resolve that prerequisite through its owning service. Verify that the
conversation settles without another periodic sweep.
4. Delay or fail exhausted-monitor recovery admission. Verify that the
monitor remains pending and the conversation cannot settle during the
handoff.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Accepted production source: `50f4432ed88537b8d522cf1dce24c33588db0bac`.
Parent #17758 merged as `8ac5a128e66fb672e88106412f76cf278599bfc4`. The
publication adopts that actual squash through a normal merge with an
unchanged complete child tree.

## What Changed

- Preserve quiet after coarse company-only maintenance hints. The shared
inbound-notice and response-availability helpers keep settlement enabled
by default. Only the milestone dispatcher suppresses their duplicate
settlement fanout. Its scoped issue-review signal and the explicit
company-authority signal still wake real work. Four database cases prove
both quiet and real company-wide producer delivery.
- Preserve source-generation checks for chat handoff,
task-before-comment locking, issue-scoped decision invalidation, and
current conversation event columns from master.
- Track initial external conversation settlement through shutdown
without blocking HTTP readiness on endpoint or task locks.

- Reuse the real queue's coalesced recovery receipt after restart,
without admitting the same monitor recovery again.

- Share the existing conversation readiness predicate between bounded
discovery and locked settlement. Preserve current provider policy,
run/publication proof, company boundaries, and endpoint-to-issue lock
order.
- Register a scoped deadline worker through the delivery coordinator.
Preserve startup, restore/worktree suppression, drain/resume, failure
recovery, and joined shutdown.
- Extend existing review, milestone, wake-notice, and finalization
signals. Add notifications at independent issue, comment, goal, session,
and wake-receipt unblocks.
- Keep monitor owner recovery pending until guarded admission. Reuse an
accepted receipt for the same monitor schedule after restart, even when
its limit reason changes; retain compatibility with legacy receipt keys.
Commit board escalation and its monitor clear together.
- Delegate periodic native settlement while preserving resource
callbacks. Keep direct/manual defaults and preserve generic recovery
ordering with a read-only readiness guard.
- Add the producer and lifecycle audit in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-external-conversation-settlement-sleep.md` and
update the stack ledger.

## Verification

Accepted production source: `50f4432ed88537b8d522cf1dce24c33588db0bac`.
Publication head: `b256bb52647affd9f5279ea8c40f48bbe40f031f`.
The complete accepted child tree stays unchanged when adopting merged
parent #17758. This publication adds only the audit document.

- **3,129 distinct cases in 37 complete server files pass**, plus **18
selected chat-response cases** (3,147 selected cases). The other 1,796
chat cases were not run locally. Full settlement, queue, scheduling,
run-state, goals, interactions, task Retry, decision targets, status
reassessment, workspace, process recovery, and review consumers are
covered.
- **Preserved failure:** the first 35-file command passed 2,445 cases
and timed out one restored-work handoff at its existing 15-second limit.
That aggregate command failed. The unchanged full 89-case actions file
then passed on a fresh fixture; the affected case took 22 ms. Root cause
was not established. No timeout or assertion changed. The 34 other files
passed originally. Distinct counts exclude duplicate actions passes.
Fresh CI remains a separate gate.
- **Indirect wake regression:** the original unconditional baseline
failed two quiet checks. Guards alone left the chat case failing with
three candidate queries. The final controlled indirect baseline fails
one of four cases; the repair passes all four with the same test hash.
Positive controls preserve real company-only producers.
- **Source and fixture controls:** all 38 selected test files restore to
their exact committed hashes after fixture imports. Fresh PostgreSQL 17
fixtures use 413 migrations. All five manual merge resolutions preserve
current authority, locking, and event-column contracts.
- **Static checks pass:** database build; server typecheck and build;
module boundaries; migration order; Copilot profile identity. Runner
packages equal the accepted parent byte for byte. No new Runner/package
qualification is claimed.
- [Current integration and wake
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/b256bb52647affd9f5279ea8c40f48bbe40f031f/doc/plans/2026-10-26-external-conversation-settlement-sleep.md#current-master-integration-and-indirect-wake-audit-2026-10-29).
Latest-head CI and exact-head Greptile 5/5 must pass before merge.

<details><summary>Earlier revision verification and preserved failure
history</summary>

Receiver failure fairness: a controlled 1,100 ms batch reproduced a
30-second delay for healthy due receivers. The worker now supplies its
existing per-item deadline through `nextRunAtOnError`. All 20 receiver
lifecycle tests pass on the owner and combined tip
`31c12f1d68ff4a51e06fc2be2abf2c2aee9f9d3a`; server production
typechecking passes on the owner. The failed receiver retains its own
backoff, and settled receivers return to zero recurring SQL. The
five-second assertion budget is unchanged. See [the owning
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/83204a67880d980cfbea3771cee19a3cda0022b7/doc/plans/2026-10-25-chat-receiver-discovery-sleep-audit.md#healthy-receiver-progress-after-a-slow-failed-batch).
Current-head CI and review remain required.

Approved delegated Test-tab calls now evaluate caller and target
policies in the existing claim transaction. Real HTTP regressions first
showed a missing caller charge and shared-limit self-rejection. All 78
connection-management cases and 92 gateway cases now pass on the owning
branch, along with server production typechecking. All 78
connection-management cases also pass at combined tip
`d25f830db89c1623bff3547bfc68015c1c66e0cf`. The three new cases cover
shared charges, separate charges, rollback on denial, duplicate
approval, and rejection of a later authorized call. Intermediate
counter/identity fixture failures and a reused-database Slack collision
are recorded in [the owning
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/ef9ae5767430d0093efc736ae0b303ba5afaae65/doc/idle-approved-tool-recovery.md#delegated-test-tab-admission-after-policy-changes).
The earlier combined checks below remain evidence for their stated
revisions. Current-head CI and review remain required.

Inherited voice-cleanup verification: the controlled slow-provider
regression and all 13 lifecycle tests passed on its owner and combined
tip `ab22d8ed0c09028315607414b83b375e5cc0a60a`. That repair changed only
the fixture clock advancement and its audit note.

Current head: `83204a67880d980cfbea3771cee19a3cda0022b7`. This remains a
single-duty PR stacked on #17758.

- Integrated pinned master `8548173fc9efdc0fa07644fb92dcc0b6851a95e5`
with normal merges. Every branch passed generated-schema checks and its
target-branch migration-order gate. Existing SQL is unchanged; the 25
stack migrations follow master’s new migration.
- Duty-specific producer coverage, lifecycle tests, and earlier failure
records:
[2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/d6d8e4ffa6b330ebf4647aec997ee2dde6abc321/doc/plans/2026-10-24-recurring-server-sleep-stack.md),
[2026-10-26-external-conversation-settlement-sleep.md](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/d6d8e4ffa6b330ebf4647aec997ee2dde6abc321/doc/plans/2026-10-26-external-conversation-settlement-sleep.md).
- Combined tip `51e6cbe67979b55b340ea9f0f434c5b5c682ccd6`: **355
startup/cancellation/recovery/dispatch/preservation tests**, **75
connection-management tests**, and production server typechecking pass.
These combined checks do not mean every intermediate PR independently
ran the full repository suite.
- Real master-to-stack database upgrade passes: **379 unchanged prior
migration receipts plus 25 new migrations**, with the gateway
responsibility fixture preserved.
- Owning-branch checks: 84 runner installation/settlement cases plus
runner typechecking and generated TypeScript/Rust profile agreement; 253
GitHub review workflow cases. Stop-attribution and held-worker readiness
regressions failed before their fixes.
- Failure accounting: the initial combined run passed 349 cases and
failed six idle assertions in a reused preservation database containing
old cancelled runs. Repeating the combined command with a fresh
preservation database passed. Earlier invalid project selection, merge
import/type errors, and the interrupted full local suite are not counted
as passing checks.
- **Latest-head CI and review remain required.** Prior CI findings
include GitHub idle observation, route teardown, attention cleanup,
touch-picker E2E, workspace health, and voice-cleanup timing; local
passes do not erase those failures. No full local repository-suite,
deployed sleep, fleet cost, or live Copilot qualification claim is made.


</details>

## Risks

- Signals cover supported in-process writers. They do not supply change
capture for independent SQL or other replicas.
- Real company-wide changes can inspect active candidates. Coarse
maintenance hints do not activate settlement. Configured idle and
retained history must remain quiet.
- Monitor receipt binding and admission order must preserve company,
agent, issue, and exact schedule identity. Current parent handoff locks
and source-generation checks remain intact.
- The local restored-work timeout is retained above. A fresh full-file
pass does not establish its cause; latest-head CI must also pass.
- Generic recovery and Muse/resource duties remain separate slices. This
does not make the whole server idle. Existing Cloud sleep blockers
remain. No deployed sleep, database suspension, external alarm coverage,
fleet cost, or live provider qualification claim is made.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, code execution, PostgreSQL
tests, and GitHub tools. The exact runtime model identifier and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

df6156c2e3 fix(server): wake native status reassessment from committed changes (#17709)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents, tasks and their durable native results.
> - Changed evidence, task authority or review retirement can require a
new status assessment.
> - Periodic orphan recovery repeatedly reads history to find these
changes.
> - This change gives reassessment an owner driven by committed changes
and saved deadlines.
> - Existing result, assessment, decision and task rows remain durable
truth.
> - The status committer still verifies current sources and authority
before writing.
> - Settled or insufficient evidence becomes quiet until a supported
producer changes it.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17702 (merged), #17679 and #17680. This is slice 50, now based on
master. It owns native status reassessment; workspace settlement,
retained sessions and other orphan duties remain separate.

**What happened?**

Periodic recovery repeatedly inspects completed native results. Removing
that scan without complete writer coverage or current authority checks
could strand new evidence or commit an old result over newer work.

**Expected behavior**

Reassess from existing durable facts after relevant outer transactions
commit. Retain real retry/lease deadlines and restart/drain recovery.
Preserve current authority, quality-review and supersession checks. Make
no recurring SQL when work is settled or dormant.

**Steps to reproduce**

Complete a native result awaiting evidence or review, leave it idle,
then approve a real work product or retire the selected automatic
review. Its saved result should advance once when authorized, or record
the existing nonterminal business gate, without a periodic scan.

## What Changed

- Extract reassessment and its pure status policy from finalization
recovery into their owning modules. Add a scoped worker using the
existing delivery coordinator and scheduler; no queue table or migration
is added.
- Retain the three durable discovery triggers: changed work-product
history, authoritative task status/version, or retirement of the
selected automatic completion review. Preserve selected-source,
ownership, effects, retry and lease fences under the existing committer.
- Notify from actual task/work-product, claim release, approval,
interaction, OAuth, event evidence and workspace-settlement owners
before their transaction writes. Keep provider calls outside short
transactions and nested writes behind outer commit.
- Scope ordinary milestone/finalization/coalesced-input wakes to an
issue/run. Keep genuine company authority restoration explicit. Real
Photon and coalescer regressions cover all three response/status queues.
- Move the current parent's required quality policy into the owner and
apply it to every reassessment that could complete a task. An unmet
review records the existing in-progress decision and next action,
avoiding an operational retry loop. Preserve conversation/session reset
locks and the workspace omission-barrier signal.
- Skip reassessment in periodic recovery while preserving
explicit/startup recovery and the historical supersession guard before
independent workspace work. Document the source contract, producer
inventory, failures and qualifications in the linked audit.

## Verification

- Broad source `9fddb3f0b1157df32b64fb1f22e9d6e9624470e8` passes **2731
distinct cases in 28 complete files**, with no skips: 2458
producer/owner/authority/workspace/quality cases in 394.43 seconds and
all 273 governed-response cases in 53.74 seconds. Nineteen dedicated
fresh PostgreSQL 17 databases migrate through 0413; eighteen
embedded-only invocations preserve fresh-per-call isolation through the
existing recovery helper. All 22 temporary imports restore exactly and
all 28 hashes match.
- Final runtime source `5ea3b0fd016bf7e63ba82a7044825a46a0cd2082` passes
**1211 cases in five complete affected files** in 108.23 seconds after
the narrowly reproduced evidence-trigger fix: all 43 worker, 145 corpus,
32 finalization-recovery, 968 native-session and 23 quality-review
cases. Four fresh databases plus the quality helper's own fresh fixture
use PostgreSQL 17. Its one adapted import restores exactly; all five
hashes match. The other 27 broad-run test files are unchanged. These
qualifications are source-scoped and not cumulatively double-counted.
- Required/optional real regressions reproduce retry loops on
retired-review and evidence-approval paths before repair; both become
SQL quiet afterward with unchanged assertions/time limits. Controlled
removal of only ordinary scope guards reproduces two coarse-hint SQL
failures; exact guard restoration passes. Real producer, outer
transaction, claim, authority, 103-item backlog, retry and drain cases
pass. Photon transport is mocked; callbacks, locks and observed SQL are
real.
- Normal merges preserve 12661 parent/unrelated entries, 35 owned
entries and 21 automatic shared results, with five original conflicts
reviewed explicitly. The parent's actual squash reconciliation preserves
the entire held child tree. The final quality fix changes only its owner
and tests. Fourteen added comments are removed with identical nontrivia
tokens; no directives are removed and the final comment check is empty.
- Database build, server types/build, boundaries and exact-head
migration order pass. The database tree is identical to merged #17702:
no new SQL, queue table or snapshot is generated. Earlier benchmarks,
host limitations, failed assertions and their repairs remain in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-native-status-reassessment-sleep-audit.md` and
`doc/idle-native-status-reassessment.md`.
- This qualifies targeted external PostgreSQL behavior, not embedded
bootstrap on the semaphore-exhausted host, a full local repository
suite, deployed sleep or measured fleet savings. Fresh exact-head CI and
review remain required.

## Risks

- Notifications retain the process-local supported-writer contract.
Independent SQL writers and uncoordinated replicas are not covered by a
new transport.
- Reassessment competes with current authority changes. Existing
row/source locks and retries remain required; arbitrary missing
identities have no row to lock, so this is not a general predicate-lock
guarantee.
- Discovery pages 100 rows but retains outstanding candidates in memory.
It remains proportional to backlog size, and cancellation occurs between
queries.
- Other orphan/workspace/session duties and Cloud sleep eligibility
remain unchanged. Missing supported producer coverage could strand
dormant work, so the producer audit and real callback/transaction tests
remain part of acceptance.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, shell
execution and PostgreSQL tests. The runtime does not expose a more
specific serving snapshot or context-window size.

79ce86630a fix(server): schedule governed review response recovery (#17702)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents, tasks and their external chat responses.
> - A completed chat turn can owe a response while an earlier review
gate remains pending.
> - Periodic recovery revisits that response history even when no work
can advance.
> - This change uses the existing delivery coordinator and saved retry
deadlines.
> - Approval, interaction and authority changes wake the affected issue
or run after commit.
> - The existing presentation owner verifies the durable result and
current authority.
> - Settled and dormant history becomes quiet without losing future
eligible responses.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17696 (merged) and #15625. This is slice 49, now based on master.
It owns governed-review response presentation. Accepted responses and
pending decision effects keep their existing owners.

**What happened?**

Native finalization recovery repeatedly inspects committed review
responses. Removing the scan without covering approval, interaction,
task-policy and authority changes would strand responses that become
eligible later.

**Expected behavior**

Recover an owed response once from existing durable facts. Enforce
authority at publication, wake after relevant outer transactions commit,
retain real retry deadlines and restart/drain recovery, and stop
recurring SQL when no response can advance.

**Steps to reproduce**

Complete an external chat turn while an earlier completion review
remains pending. Block its response behind an approval or interaction,
then resolve that blocker. The response must appear once without a
periodic scan or resolving the original review gate.

## What Changed

- Add a scoped governed-review worker using the existing coordinator,
finalizations, decisions and comment receipts. No queue table or
transaction wrapper is added.
- Keep recovery and publication policy in the native finalizer. Preserve
binding, source/session authority, ownership, deadline and
deleted-comment fences; match coordinator-before-issue lock ordering.
- Notify through actual approval, interaction, OAuth, task-policy and
lifecycle producers before their owned writes. Serialize approval
resolution with task linking so a concurrent link retains its wake.
Nested transactions still settle at outer commit.
- Scope ordinary milestones, finalization and coalesced input to their
issue/run. Use the explicit company authority boundary for genuine
global restoration, including membership changes. Both response workers
share this boundary.
- Register under maintenance and drain gates, disable the two periodic
repair entrances, and retain fresh finalization and explicit recovery.
Add the concurrent 0413 comment-receipt index and migration
registration; retain five snapshots.
- Preserve the producer inventory, source qualifications and earlier
failures in the owner audit. Retain a real Photon regression proving
routine ownership assertions stay quiet and concurrent authority
restoration wakes each worker once.

## Verification

- Scoped repair source `2341714720b5c273f0ce011b48345af0ef39227f` passes
**2053 distinct cases**: 1703 in 15 complete producer/authority/recovery
files, including all 273 governed-response cases and 95 wake-queue
adapter cases, plus 350 selected chat cases. Another 1463 chat cases are
outside that selection. Thirteen fresh PostgreSQL 17 fixtures migrate
through unchanged 0413; the one temporary queue-fixture import restores
exactly. All sixteen captured hashes match.
- Two actual repeated coarse-hint SQL regressions fail before repair and
pass afterward. Actual membership restoration passes before and after.
The same assertions and time limits prove dormant work stays quiet and
real authority restoration still publishes once. Real coalesced input
covers both queues after commit.
- Combined source `586f5674cd9798b33cd22437255e0480b5726d20`, including
independent master #18129, passes **1297 distinct cases**: 1093 in five
complete server files, 185 in five runner files, 14 Node protocol cases
and five UI registry cases. This includes the complete 22-case Photon
file for both response workers. The external Photon transport is mocked;
Paperclip callbacks, transaction fences and observed SQL are real. The
earlier and combined case counts are separate, with no cumulative
double-counting.
- A normal merge retains both complete owned and independent master
binary patches. All twelve new-context hashes and sixteen earlier repair
hashes match. Three dedicated fresh 0413 fixtures plus the live-event
helper's own fresh database use PostgreSQL 17 without source
adaptations. Database build, server types/build, boundaries, full-SHA
migration order and generated TS/Rust profiles pass. The new inherited
Runner vendor inputs rebuild successfully.
- Database bytes remain identical to the previously qualified 0413
source. The recorded populated 0412-to0413 upgrade retains all 411 prior
receipts and 38 companies, appends one receipt and none on replay; the
index is valid and ready. The earlier 2828-case acceptance, CLI journey,
setup failures and their repairs retain their recorded source scope in
`doc/plans/2026-10-26-governed-review-response-sleep-audit.md`.
- Parent #17696 merged with 58 clean checks, Greptile 5/5 and Ponytail
5/5. Its Photon warning was disproved by real callback/SQL evidence and
the security check became successful. This PR still requires its own
fresh exact-head CI and review gates. No deployed sleep, external alarm
or fleet savings claim is made.

## Risks

- Notifications use the existing process-local writer contract.
Independent SQL writers and uncoordinated replicas are outside its
coverage.
- Genuine startup and company authority reconstruction remain
proportional to the owed backlog. Queries page 100 rows, but discovery
accumulates the candidates; this is not a constant-cost global
operation.
- Current publication authorization, durable binding, ownership and lock
ordering remain mandatory. The worker does not resolve the original
review gate.
- The concurrent index uses existing migration replay handling. Other
recovery duties and Cloud sleep eligibility remain separate.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, shell
execution and PostgreSQL tests. The runtime does not expose a more
specific serving snapshot or context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 94a780286f fix(server): schedule tool health from committed changes and deadlines (#17554)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI-agent work and its connected tools.
> - Idle hosted instances need their database and network activity to
stop.
> - The maintenance tick queries tool connections even when no health
check is due.
> - Existing connection rows already contain eligibility and the last
health observation.
> - This pull request reconstructs health deadlines and refreshes them
after committed changes.
> - The shared coordinator preserves retries, drain, and shutdown
without another private timer.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The aggregate maintenance tick scans connection health every 30 seconds.
Empty instances and connections with fresh health observations still
cause SQL activity.

**Expected behavior**

No eligible connection means no recurring health SQL. Eligible
connections retain the existing 15-minute proactive check. Configuration
changes and health observations update the schedule after commit.

**Steps to reproduce**

Start a server with heartbeat scheduling enabled and no tool
connections. Let startup finish and observe two maintenance ticks. The
old code repeats the health inventory query. The new startup regression
verifies that those ticks do not invoke the health inventory.

**Paperclip version or commit**

This branch includes merged parent #17518 and master
`96727b3cfefb61f85ffe1fbc29a9b6dd6837efe8`. The 47 changed paths belong
to the single tool-connection health duty. No database file differs from
master.

Related: #14638 covers runtime-auth exclusions. #15448, #15325, and
#11910 concern MCP failure classification. This PR preserves those
provider policies and does not replace their work.

## What Changed

- Keep the GitHub error-projection unit fixture at the health-write
boundary and verify the real transaction path in the PostgreSQL
health-worker suite.

- Add a health schedule owned by tool access. Read lean eligibility
fields and saved observation timestamps.
- Register health work with the existing coordinator. Refresh only dirty
connection/application/company scopes using bounded inventory pages,
check due connections in fair company batches, continue concrete due
backlog after one second, and retain failures with backoff.
- Notify before supported eligibility and observation writes in their
owning transactions. Cover API/gallery setup, OAuth, catalog/gateway
observations, email, voice, access removal, deletion, and settings.
- Commit connection creation with grant, binding, and runtime-slot SQL
before its wake. Keep provider calls outside the new transactions.
- Keep provider-to-transport mapping in the chat catalog. SDK-only chat
changes do not wake health work.
- Replace aggregate health scans, retain the public manual sweep, and
document the producer audit and remaining sleep limits.
- Keep metadata-only example and Smoke Lab installs scoped. Lock and
re-read application type before publishing a real eligibility change.
- Keep failed inventory reads on their own retry deadline while healthy
due batches continue.
- Apply fixture migrations before using external disposable databases in
all six producer suites.

## Verification

Published head: `8c1d293d1ae2b7db753ab20f5a2a2edec1fb0a62`. Fresh CI and
reviews are required for this exact head.

- **623 distinct targeted cases pass.** The final four complete health,
fair-batching, GitHub health recovery, and startup suites pass 80 cases
after the retry fix. Five complete producer suites pass 543 cases: tool
access 469, access 18, email 45, GitHub events four, and Smoke Lab
seven. The earlier 26 health cases are part of this total, not
additional cases.
- The six producer suites first passed against separate, initially empty
PostgreSQL 17 databases at `acbf262843`. They apply their own
migrations. The subsequent repair changes only the health worker and its
regression; its complete final consumer suites pass on that integrated
parent. Server typecheck and build pass with the final repair.
- **Installer amplification:** five real installs with 205 unrelated
connections reproduced 1,035 example rows and 1,045 Smoke Lab rows.
Repeated metadata installs now load only changed fixture connections.
The same cases restore an excluded application through each installer
and require all 205 unrelated IDs to re-enter the schedule.
- **Concurrent eligibility:** a real PostgreSQL lock-wait case requires
the installer to notify after a concurrent type change. A mutation that
retains the lock but uses the old lookup fails the settled-hint
assertion; original source was restored byte for byte.
- **Retry isolation:** the failing baseline read one unavailable company
three times while another company's 60 due checks drained. Final tests
require one initial read, at least 30 seconds between failed reads,
prompt healthy progress, eventual recovery, and SQL quiet after
settlement.
- Real-service producer coverage includes AgentMail activation/pause,
GitHub installation changes, and member access removal. Lifecycle
coverage includes outer commit/rollback, startup reconstruction,
drain/resume, failure, and shutdown.
- Failure history and exact evidence scope: [health
acceptance](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/8c1d293d1ae2b7db753ab20f5a2a2edec1fb0a62/doc/idle-tool-connection-health.md#acceptance-follow-up-after-the-plugin-parent-merged-october-27),
[producer
audit](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/8c1d293d1ae2b7db753ab20f5a2a2edec1fb0a62/doc/plans/2026-10-24-tool-connection-health-sleep-audit.md).
Prior remote failures and earlier 706-case evidence remain historical.
Startup tests emitted listener-count warnings; all assertions passed. No
full local repository-suite, deployed sleep, fleet savings, or live
provider qualification claim is made.

## Risks

- Supported live writers must use the transaction signals. Independent
SQL writers and other replicas need their own wake integration.
- Configured eligible connections still have a real proactive health
obligation. This does not prove Cloud alarm coverage or host/database
suspension.
- Existing manual probes and catalog operations can overlap. This
migration does not introduce a credential-version CAS or change provider
failure policy.
- Voice remains eligible under the previous health policy. Its generic
probe can still report an unsupported transport; changing that behavior
is separate work.
- No database migration, new table, workflow, or lockfile change. This
PR includes its merged parent and current inspected master; later stack
PRs and all current-head acceptance gates remain separate.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 0c9d10d695 feat(connections): complete saved setup guidance and coverage maps (#17739)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Product and agent access maps describe the same capability IDs.
> - Agent connection management changes the callable operations and
permission boundaries.
> - Reviewers need an operation inventory that distinguishes API access,
human handoffs, and fixture evidence.
> - This pull request adds saved setup screens and updates the maps for
#17737.
> - The benefit is that users and contributors can inspect the coverage
and remaining boundaries.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Product and permission documentation, saved authentication setup UI and
consent metadata, and product/agent access maps.

**Problem or motivation**

The current maps describe board-only management paths. They need to
match delegated connection management and distinguish administration
from ordinary tool execution.

**Proposed solution**

Record route operations, required grants, responsible-user limits,
transport, saved authentication handoffs, provider-fixture evidence, and
explicit local-operator boundaries for every connection family.

**Roadmap alignment**

This is the documentation companion to #17737. It covers existing
Connected Apps, governed MCP gateways, chat channels, and
personal/shared AI accounts. It uses existing server setup operations
and adds their saved handoffs to the existing UI.

## What Changed

- Show saved AI sign-in and connection setup handoffs in the existing
UI.
- Open GitHub import and rotation links at the required human step.
Resume a committed rotation after reload without asking for another
secret.
- Restore saved Google service choices for the addressed user while
preserving newer consent. Successful direct/cloud consent records its
own timestamp, independently of refresh or lease writes; existing
refresh paths preserve it.
- Update product, implementation, and permission-default documentation.
- Reconcile app permissions, connection setup, chat channels,
profiles/gateways, and model account coverage.
- Use matching capability IDs in the product and agent access maps.
- Label source-reviewed operations separately from fixture-tested
operations and live provider setup.

- Preserve catalog creator attribution under the responsible user, with
the actual agent still recorded. This follow-up moved from the
implementation to keep both reviews below 100 files. This companion now
changes 38 files, including the preserved Vercel personal-credential and
OAuth callback attribution follow-ups alongside consent and catalog
ownership.

- Name the addressed-human browser-session and consent step for Slack
managed authorization and installation. Preserve source-only evidence
for those individual operations.

## Verification

- Current companion head: `04d40cdd605452d91cf4931476eb292a210825af`,
including implementation `2ecd6451d0` and master `ea727dc3c2`, 38 files.
All intended companion files survive: 35 are byte-identical to the
previous companion; two chat maps and qualification add current
evidence. Exact-head Superagent passed and Paperclip Review supplied an
actual neutral5/5 assessment with no findings and explicit
no-independent-runtime/live/current-CI verification limits. Exact-head
Greptile also completed at5/5 with no findings; both formerly failed
shards and their verification aggregate passed on attempt2; full
exact-head Linux CI workflow40446969603 completed SUCCESS. All current
checks and statuses are terminal clean, with no unresolved findings.
This PR remains dependent on #17737 and needs fresh checks after its
required post-squash replay. The preceding 605 head’s reviews are
historical after this update. Older b0ea Linux workflow success after
its single rerun also remains historical.
- Earlier preserved-stack verification passed **2,165 tests**: 70
assembled-server actual-auth scenarios, 27 OpenAPI contracts, 2,022
native API tests and 46 saved GitHub wizard cases in fresh PostgreSQL.
The parent also passed **141 existing gateway/policy tests**. Workspace
typecheck/build, maps and token gates passed. The initial typecheck IPC
denial and all material intermediate regressions remain in the
qualification record; no full local sweep or live provider setup is
claimed.
- Operation maps now cover issuer/target gateway policy intersection and
post-approval revocation, bounded activity pagination through
private-only windows, and native local-login encrypted receipts. The
companion preserves the Vercel OAuth callback ownership change with its
existing credential ownership follow-up.

- Parent CI has one retained connection-intent e2e failure from a
periodic-recovery timing race. GitHub refused the first job-rerun
attempt while its workflow was nonterminal. Once completed, the single
failed-job rerun was accepted as attempt 2 and passed, including the
full parent Linux workflow.

- Companion Linux server shard 4/12 retained a cleanup-idleness timeout
in `login-cleanup-work.test.ts` (active work was still 1 after its
five-second wait). The same unchanged cleanup suite passed all 16 cases
in the parent Linux job 121950185096 and all 16 cases locally against a
fresh disposable PostgreSQL database. Relevant cleanup/reaper/scheduling
runtime code is unchanged. The single unchanged-code failed-job rerun
was accepted as **attempt 2** on the previous `b0ea3c940f` head
(workflow 40431671705). The failed shard and complete Linux workflow
passed on attempt 2; no additional unchanged-code rerun was used for
this failure. The first local attempt failed the existing dedicated
`_test` database-name guard before running tests; the correctly named
fixture passed without weakening the guard.

- **Earlier 82 GitHub UI tests passed**. All three new replacement cases
were red before the fix. A confirmed unchanged generation preserves the
earlier copy; a changed or unreadable generation blocks copying and
reconnecting. An explicit status check can restore the copy when it is
still current. All earlier import, rotation, verification, and retry
states remain covered.
- The complete stack passed **82 API/OpenAPI tests** in fresh
PostgreSQL, including 55 scenarios with real agent keys, run JWTs, human
sessions, production defaults, persistence, and deterministic providers.
The parent also passed **60 Copilot installation tests**, preserving
published v62 and binding combined guidance as v63.
- **Earlier 10 focused Google/OAuth tests passed**: eight picker cases
and two local-HTTP protocol cases proving consent metadata survives
concurrent token refresh. The refresh and legacy UI cases were red
before the fix. These protocol fixtures use the existing injected board
actor and do not count as agent-authenticated proof.
- Workspace typecheck/build passed after the consent change; normal
migration generation reported no SQL changes for the additive JSON
metadata. The parent's latest caller-authorization correction passed
server typecheck/build. Map validation and token gates passed. Maps
cover 35 areas and 192 capability IDs. The specification names migration
`0380_broken_aqueduct.sql`.
- The test-call operation maps now record the full caller/target tool
access decision (profiles, policies, and explicit grants), credential
identity for every auth label, approval, and rate checks. The
profile-only precondition was removed after the new permitted-access
cases failed; those cases and the no-auth identity regression now pass.
Saved test status requires its originating principal and current
linked-task access; actual key/JWT privacy-denial evidence is recorded.
- Tool-connection activity is now operation-verified: 100 events over
two tasks require two capability decisions and at most two run captures
(previously 100/102), preserve private-event filtering, and deny the
next request after audit revocation. The regression was red before the
fix.
- Cloud enrollment creation and callback entries now name
instance-administrator and company/principal checks. The callback is a
browser return with HTML or a 303 redirect. Status reads retain their
separate board-actor rule.
- Operation maps identify the API, transport, authorization, evidence,
and human/operator boundaries. Structural checks do not establish live
provider behavior. Earlier failures and fixture corrections remain in
`doc/plans/2026-10-13-connection-api-parity.md`.
- An earlier companion head (`26edbe17`) received an actual Paperclip
Review assessment of 5/5 with no actionable findings, published with
neutral status. That review did not run tests or confirm CI, and it is
historical for this new head. The prior incomplete execution result is
not counted as a passed assessment. Fresh review remains pending. The
duplicate enrollment findings have explanatory replies and are resolved.
- The latest implementation correction passed all 55 actual-auth
scenarios and 27 OpenAPI contracts (separate commands). It repairs
unavailable old credential material, preserves fresh import versus
configured reconnect links, and distinguishes credential field
sets/completion modes in handoff keys. The new fresh-link and collision
cases were red before the fix. All 41 GitHub wizard tests now pass,
including filling the fresh saved handoff and asserting App import
rather than reconnect; UI typecheck, maps and token gates also pass.
Qualification retains the earlier failures and an incorrect OpenAPI
filename that selected only the integration module before the correct
separate contract run.
- Configured GitHub credential-entry links carry canonical requested
fields and all/any mode. The form displays and submits those values
through human reconnect while retaining other saved credentials. Two
webhook/client-secret cases were red before the fix; combined all/any
and legacy-link cases also pass. The current UI fixes the old bf760912
baseline referenced by the duplicate main review finding.
- After merging master baec3abd67 and regenerating migration0380, the
complete stack passed **128 tests** (55 actual-auth, 27 OpenAPI and 46
GitHub wizard cases), workspace typecheck/build, maps and token gates.
Eight current Google UI cases also passed. The two local-HTTP OAuth
cases could not initialize embedded PostgreSQL in this fresh attempt, so
that attempt is not a protocol pass; the earlier ten-case evidence is
historical and fresh Linux CI remains required.
- The reproduced Linux automatic-Slack challenge failure is fixed by
retaining verification only for the same signing fingerprint and
callback URL; all eight neighboring provider compatibility cases pass.
Qualification also retains the uncommitted GitHub field variant that
failed initial-secret compatibility before the extension was narrowed to
reconnect, and the first unmigrated external-database diagnostic.
Upstream 0379 remains intact; normal generation/pruning produced
additive/idempotent 0380, with repeated application verified.
- Both PRs must ship together. The user authorized merging when checks
pass. Merge #17737 first, replay only this companion's changes onto
master, retarget this PR, and require fresh current-head CI and review
before its squash merge.

- The updated maps distinguish authorized bot-token/API-key setup from
human verification-key entry and forbid generic channel secret-reference
replacement. Actual key/JWT security baselines were red before both
guards; all 82 API/OpenAPI cases, eight native receipt protections, and
49 policy-service tests now pass. The qualification record preserves the
initial lifecycle/fixture/union-assertion diagnostics and the preceding
Linux CI assertion failures. Maps pass on this updated stack. Fresh
exact-head CI and reviews remain required.

- The parent now preserves a per-field credential-change boundary before
retiring saved credential-entry cards. Old health, unchanged entry,
unrelated repair and retries cannot bypass it. Current authority is
checked before and inside credential persistence; a real provider-time
revocation regression was red before the fix. Final 82 API/OpenAPI
tests, four neighboring lifecycle cases, and server typecheck/build
pass. Maps pass, and qualification retains the hidden-metadata fixture
failure and the measured minute-boundary rate-test failure. Production
rate behavior is unchanged; only the relevant test Date clock is fixed.

- After the current master/parent refresh, all **341 affected UI
cases**, combined workspace typecheck/build, maps and token gates pass.
The updated parent also passed **97 actual-auth/OpenAPI cases**, **141
gateway/policy cases** and **61 profile installation cases**. Published
upstream Copilotv62/v63 remain unchanged; combined guidance is now v64
(`sha256:22e31f95ef972bcead98a4a707c9f33433558fd111e390e027a2bbb4346e112a`).
Qualification retains the initial source-identity failure and fixture
port/migration setup failures. No full local sweep, fresh local OAuth
protocol run or live acceptance is claimed; fresh Linux CI must qualify
this successor.

- Latest review follow-up: the parent fixes caller-policy bypass in
Slack tests/invitations and premature identity-handoff completion. The
maps now name caller/target Block/Ask/rate intersection, one charge for
a shared bucket, and the addressed human’s exact current identity link.
Parent verification passes all **99 actual-auth/OpenAPI tests**,
typecheck and build. The preserved combined companion passes the four
focused tests (including twelve Slack policy/recipient combinations and
the actual human OAuth confirmation path), workspace typecheck/build and
maps. The 50 embedded-PG continuation cases were skipped locally because
their database could not start; fresh Linux CI remains required. All
material red/intermediate results and corrected-fixture evidence are
retained in the qualification record.

- Current `04d40cdd60` CI workflow40446969603 retained two new failures:
server1/12 `workspace-runtime.test.ts` could not reach a fixture
subprocess’s health endpoint within its ten-second readiness window
(job122001926052), and chat2/3 `wakes Slack session sync from
publication commit and leaves settled action queues quiet` observed one
select after its idle predicate (job122001925936). Both same cases
passed in parent `2ecd6451d0` Linux jobs122001920494/122001920581. The
runtime and queue implementations are unchanged by this companion. Both
failing cases also pass unchanged locally: two real-subprocess runtime
readiness/reuse tests and the exact Slack quietness assertion against a
fresh migrated PostgreSQL database. Logs:
`/tmp/parity-04d-server1-failure.log`,
`/tmp/parity-04d-chat2-failure.log`,
`/tmp/parity-2ecd-server1-green.log`,
`/tmp/parity-2ecd-chat2-green.log`,
`/tmp/parity-04d-runtime-qualified.log`,
`/tmp/parity-04d-chat-quiet-qualified.log`. The single standard
unchanged-code failed-job rerun was **accepted as attempt2** on the
unchanged exact head at `2026-10-27T04:24:30.513973+00:00` after the
workflow completed. Both new failure retry allowances are now
**consumed**; both failed shards and the complete Linux workflow have
now passed on attempt2, including the verification aggregate. No
additional unchanged-code rerun will be requested for either failure. No
timing, assertion, idle-work guard or policy was weakened. If either
case fails again, investigate/fix rather than rerun again. The older
5b/b0ea rerun allowances remain consumed and separate.

## Risks

- Saved handoff links depend on the API changes in #17737, including the
nonsecret credential-generation metadata. Both PRs must ship together.
- A map can overstate operation coverage. Entries identify their
evidence and retain human authentication and trusted-host limits.
- Structural map checks do not prove live provider behavior.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, and code
execution. The runtime does not expose a more specific deployment ID or
context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 13709b4c7a feat(connections): let agents configure connections within delegated authority (#17737)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections provide governed tools, chat channels, model accounts,
and gateways.
> - Several management routes require a human board actor even when an
agent has the required grant.
> - Default agents must configure these resources within the responsible
user's authority.
> - This pull request adds a shared authorization path to the existing
REST and native API surface.
> - Human authentication, execution approvals, and local host boundaries
remain enforced.
> - The benefit is that a standard agent can complete authorized setup
with a bounded human handoff.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server authorization, connection services, shared contracts, native API
discovery, database schema.

**Problem or motivation**

Connection administration is available in the web app but often
unavailable to agents. Agent grants, responsible-user authority,
credential ownership, and actor attribution need separate checks.
Opening gateway-token creation also requires preserving the issuing
agent's delegated authority during token use.

**Proposed solution**

Use the existing authorization evaluator for every connection family.
Enforce current responsible-user authority, effective trust, grant
scope, resource visibility, and target-agent access. Keep existing agent
grants unchanged. Expose authorized configuration through default
`search_api` and `call_api`. Save human authentication steps and let
agents continue after completion.

**Roadmap alignment**

This change completes the API access path for the existing Connected
Apps, Personal & Shared AI Accounts, and governed MCP Gateway
capabilities in `ROADMAP.md`. It follows the maintainer's requested
design. Related work: #11899 enforces connection execution access and
creator/manager rules; this PR extends agent management across
connection families. It does not replace that execution-policy work.

## What Changed

- Add shared connection management context and mandatory
responsible-user, trust, scope, and target checks.
- Allow authorized agents to configure tool, chat/email, GitHub/Slack,
AI, profile, and gateway resources through existing routes.
- Preserve human credential ownership and record the actual agent,
responsible user, and run or key in audit data.
- Preserve saved browser authentication handoffs and callback session
checks.
- Bind agent-issued durable gateway tokens to their responsible user and
recheck delegated authority at use.
- Add explicit REST transport and management capability metadata,
built-in guidance, and sensitive-response handling.
- Intersect caller and endpoint-agent Slack test/invitation policies,
including independent and shared rates. Require the addressed human’s
current endpoint identity link before completing identity handoffs.
- Add production-authenticated integration scenarios. Companion #17739
contains the saved setup UI (including the required human
import/rotation step), product and permission documentation,
catalog/Vercel credential and callback ownership, and operation maps to
keep each review below 100 files. Both PRs must ship together; merge
this implementation first, then its companion.

## Verification

- Current implementation head:
`2ecd6451d0d0c8d82121a4e3fa4ce94c5befbbd6`, including master
`ea727dc3c2`, 99 files. The latest follow-up fixes the two valid
findings from the preceding f9 review. Exact-head Greptile has completed
at5/5 with no findings and Superagent passed. Full exact-head Linux CI
workflow40446606056 completed SUCCESS; only the queued external
Paperclip Review remains pending; earlier Linux passes do not qualify
this successor.
- Latest preserved-stack verification passed **2,165 tests** in fresh
PostgreSQL: **70 actual-auth scenarios**, 27 OpenAPI contracts, 2,022
native API tests and 46 saved GitHub wizard cases. **141 existing
gateway/policy acceptance tests** also passed. Workspace
typecheck/build, maps and token gates passed. The first workspace
typecheck was blocked by sandbox tsx IPC permissions; its authorized
rerun passed. This is focused local evidence; the full Linux CI matrix
is still required.
- Issuer/target gateway policy regressions were red before the fix. Both
decisions now intersect, including Block/Ask first/rates, same
credential identity and current token/user/agent authority after
approval. Invocations retain their token and actual requesting agent;
deleted tokens fail closed. Thirteen actual-auth cases cover revocation,
narrowed scope, approvals, shared rates and board compatibility.
Intermediate missing-token attribution, review-context and
implicit-session actor failures remain in the qualification record; all
final cases pass.
- Activity pagination now retains a bounded cursor across private-only
windows. The actual-JWT regression reaches three older readable events
after 27 private ones without exposing private details. A native
device-login regression was red for plaintext receipts; local check and
test-call results now use existing protected-response handling. The
passing actual-auth case proves encrypted persistence, exact replay,
redacted history and no response asset.

- Previous-head `5b55195593` Linux CI initially failed e2e shard 4/8 in
the existing connection-intent continuation test: periodic recovery
queued a repair at 01:21:47, the scripted journey completed the task at
01:21:48, and the extra queued run was cancelled at 01:21:49 because the
task was terminal. The assertion selected that latest cancelled run.
GitHub refused the first attempt while the workflow was nonterminal.
After completion, the single evidence-supported failed-job rerun was
accepted as **attempt 2** on the same head (workflow 40431202466). The
failed shard and final E2E aggregate passed on attempt 2, and the
complete Linux workflow for that head is successful. The original
failure remains part of qualification. No additional unchanged-code
rerun will be used for this failure.

- Companion CI also has an unchanged login-cleanup idleness timeout,
retained in its qualification record. That same 16-case suite passed in
this parent Linux run and a fresh local database. Both preceding
workflows passed after their single failed-job reruns as attempt 2; the
original failures remain recorded. No additional unchanged-code rerun
was used.

- Migration `0380_broken_aqueduct.sql` was regenerated through the
repository workflow after master took 0379 for project Git
authorization. It adds the responsible-user column with `IF NOT EXISTS`,
preserves upstream migrations, and satisfies snapshot retention and
migration safety checks.
- Upstream published Copilot v62 and v63 identities remain byte-for-byte
unchanged. The combined guidance is now v64, digest
`sha256:22e31f95ef972bcead98a4a707c9f33433558fd111e390e027a2bbb4346e112a`.
The normal shared TypeScript/Rust identity check and **61 Copilot
installation tests passed**. The old source-identity assertion first
failed against unchanged published v63; regenerating a new v64 preserves
the published release.
- Workspace `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build`, map validation, and UI
token gates passed on the final combined stack after the upstream merge.
Node 24.22.1 / pnpm 9.15.4 were used.
- **Earlier 82 API/OpenAPI tests passed** in fresh PostgreSQL 18: 55
assembled-server scenarios and 27 contracts. They use real persistent
agent keys, run JWTs, human sessions, production defaults, and
deterministic provider fixtures. No actor injection establishes access.
- The new email regression was red before per-account scope filtering.
The Arcade regression was red before human ownership and inventory-key
fixes; it also verifies actual-agent audit identity and a human-session
inventory read. The activity regression measured **200 authorization
checks before the fix and one afterward** for the same one-item page.
- **82 GitHub UI tests passed**, including all three new
failed-replacement regressions that were red before their fix. The UI
preserves an earlier copy only after confirming its committed
generation. Changed or unreadable results block copying and reconnecting
until reconciled. Human-only secret responses now include their
nonsecret committed generation.
- Private test status now rechecks the originating principal and linked
task, including mandatory agent/responsible-user privacy. Cross-agent
tests require the full caller tool access decision and the same
credential identity, regardless of auth label; caller and target
policies/approvals and rate limits apply before execution and after
human approval. A profile-only precondition was found to reject valid
allow-policy and scoped-grant access and has been removed. Both
permitted-access cases and a no-auth-label identity regression were red
before the correction; caller-specific Block still prevents provider
execution. The private-status regression was also red before its fix.
- The tool-activity regression measured 100 capability decisions and 102
run captures on a 100-event page before the fix. It now uses two task
decisions and at most two captures while retaining the same 50 visible
events, private-event filtering, and 403 after audit-grant revocation.
The regression was red before request-context reuse and task-decision
sharing; final server typecheck/build also pass.
- Generic chat configure/reconnect now hands agent-supplied verification
credentials to the addressed human before provider work or vault
changes. Actual key/JWT regressions were red for Slack signing-key
replacement and generic channel secret-reference rebinding. They now
prove unchanged refs and vaulted signing value, human setup, permitted
agent bot-token repair, and governed test messages. All 82 API/OpenAPI
cases pass in fresh PostgreSQL. Eight native receipt protections and
final server typecheck/build also pass.
- The preceding review found that old healthy state could retire a
credential-entry card before a human changed anything. The actual-JWT
regression was red. Saved field generations now change only with
protected values and commit with refs plus a verification fence; retries
retain the baseline. Old health, bot-token repair and unchanged entry
stay pending. New signing verification and current authority permit
continuation. A separate red race proved that user revocation during
provider authentication could return 403 after refs changed; authority
is now checked before persistence and inside the credential transaction.
The final 82 API/OpenAPI cases, four neighboring real-database
Slack/GitHub lifecycle cases, and final server typecheck/build pass.
- A preceding full run crossed a rate-window boundary. Database rows
prove one consumed slot at 23:35 and another at 23:36 for the same
policy/bucket. Only Date is frozen in the rate test cases; transport and
asynchronous timers remain real. Production rate behavior is unchanged,
and the final full run passes. An intermediate fixture failure that
overwrote hidden generation metadata with an API projection is retained
in the qualification record.
- Linux CI on an earlier head found two rate-admission assertions that
omitted the newly persisted bucket key. The failures were reproduced
locally; both assertions now verify the exact actor/tool bucket and all
49 policy-service tests pass. The companion qualification record retains
the initial and intermediate failures. Catalog creator attribution is
preserved in the companion to keep this implementation review at 99
files.
- The latest review reproduced three regressions before repair: complete
human replacements failed on unavailable old signing secrets, fresh
GitHub links incorrectly selected reconnect, and different
credential-entry requests shared an idempotency key. Each old protected
ref now has a narrow known-unavailable fallback; unexpected resolver
failures and company/scope violations still abort. Fresh imports keep
their credential form, configured endpoints keep reconnect, and
canonical field sets/completion modes distinguish handoffs while
matching retries retain their baseline. All 55 actual-auth scenarios and
27 separately run OpenAPI contracts pass, as do server typecheck/build.
Companion #17739 also passes all 41 wizard tests including actual
fresh-form submission, UI typecheck, maps and token gates. Earlier red
results and a mistyped OpenAPI filename are retained in qualification.
- The configured GitHub handoff regression was red in the
browser-component tests and actual-auth link/persistence tests. Saved
links now name requested fields and all/any completion mode; the
companion form submits those supplied fields through reconnect and
retains other saved credentials. Webhook/client-secret reconnect remains
human-only; first-setup secret restrictions remain. All 46 wizard tests
pass, including combined modes and legacy links. A duplicate review
referenced the older companion bf760912; the current form is already
fixed, linked in the reply, and its thread is resolved.
- Linux CI on bf760912 failed automatic Slack provisioning because vault
persistence cleared an already verified manifest-update challenge. The
same regression was reproduced locally. The provider-owned helper now
preserves proof only for the current signing fingerprint and callback
URL. Eight existing compatibility cases pass, including this case and
initial GitHub secret rejection. The first uncommitted GitHub-field
variant also failed that initial boundary and was narrowed to reconnect;
both failures remain in qualification.
- The upstream merge conflicted only in generated migration metadata.
Upstream 0379 is preserved, normal generation/pruning produced 0380, and
two repeated applications of the idempotent additive SQL passed. The
final combined stack passed **128 tests** (55 actual-auth, 27 OpenAPI
and 46 wizard cases) in fresh PostgreSQL. Eight Google UI cases also
pass; the two protocol cases could not initialize embedded PostgreSQL in
this fresh local attempt. Their earlier passing evidence remains
historical; fresh Linux CI must execute them. Vercel personal credential
attribution is preserved in companion #17739 with its other
ownership/consent follow-ups, keeping this PR at 99 files.
- The suite covers fresh defaults, restricted users/agents, scopes,
personal isolation, token revocation, human handoffs, callback replay,
execution approvals, authorized self-targeted policy changes,
self-approval denial, and current authority before commit. Reproduce API
checks with `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/connection-management.integration.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts`, using a fresh database
through `PAPERCLIP_CONNECTION_MANAGEMENT_TEST_DATABASE_URL` or the
default embedded test database.
- Companion #17739 also records consent separately from token refresh so
saved Google choices survive refresh. Its eight service-picker and two
local-HTTP OAuth tests pass; both new UI cases were red before the fix.
Normal migration generation confirms no SQL change is needed for the
additive JSON metadata.
- The integration module shares one assembled server, authentication
factory, and provider lifecycle to preserve the
HTTP-to-vault-to-task-continuation proof. A reused external database
caused a Slack fixture identity conflict; the fresh final run passed.
Earlier fixture/transport and contract-update failures remain in the
companion qualification record.
- The broad local `pnpm test:run` attempt remains blocked by macOS
embedded PostgreSQL's host semaphore limit. It is not a clean pass. The
fresh Linux CI matrix must complete. Provider fixtures do not prove live
setup or an empirical LLM success rate.
- A current-head completed Paperclip assessment is not yet recorded. Its
earlier external recovery boundary has not been bypassed, and no
incomplete assessment is reported as passing. The user authorized both
merges when checks pass; merge this implementation first, then replay,
retarget, and requalify companion #17739 against the squash-merged
master.

- After the master refresh, local workspace typecheck/build, **97
actual-auth/OpenAPI cases** and **141 gateway/policy cases** pass. The
original fixed database port was occupied; Docker assigned a free
localhost port. The first neighbor setup command could not resolve root
`tsx`, leaving its schema uninitialized; the built database package
migrated the separate fixture and all unchanged cases passed. Both setup
failures are retained in qualification. Fresh Linux CI remains required;
no full local test-sweep pass is claimed.

- The f9 Greptile review scored **2/5** for two reproduced findings:
Slack test sends skipped the caller’s tool policy, and healthy App
credentials completed an unconfirmed identity handoff. Both are fixed in
this head and have resolved evidence threads
([Slack](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/17737#discussion_r4384927765),
[identity](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/17737#discussion_r4384927895)).
Actual key/JWT cases cover twelve Slack caller/target/recipient
combinations; the human-session GitHub OAuth callback alone remains
pending until explicit confirmation. All **99 API/OpenAPI tests** (72
actual-auth + 27 contracts), workspace typecheck and build pass. On the
combined companion, all four focused cases (including the twelve Slack
combinations), typecheck/build and maps also pass. The continuation
suite’s 50 embedded-PG cases were skipped because its database could not
start locally; fresh Linux CI must run them. Initial fixture
credential-collision and audit-projection assertion failures are
retained with the red reproductions in the companion qualification
record. No full local sweep or live consent is claimed.

## Risks

- The maintainer explicitly confirmed authorized policy administration,
including self-targeted changes that loosen controls. These writes
require management grants and the responsible user’s current authority.
Agents cannot approve their own governed action requests or edit their
own principal permission grants. The actual-auth regression exercises
both permitted administration and those denials.
- This is a broad authorization change. Incorrect scope or owner
resolution could deny permitted setup or expose another user's
resources. Integration cases cover both permitted and denied requests
with actual authentication.
- The additive nullable gateway-token column does not infer identities
for legacy clients or backfill agent grants. Legacy agent tokens without
a responsible user fail closed.
- Provider fixtures test supported setup and callback contracts. They do
not prove live provider availability.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, and code
execution. The runtime does not expose a more specific deployment ID or
context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip ba9e6e4bc5 refactor(tools): isolate authorization lifecycle (#17162)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Browser authorization binds a consenting identity to a company
connection.
> - Direct OAuth, managed-cloud claims and Vercel authorization have
different state and persistence rules.
> - Keeping all of them in the general tool service obscures those rules
and their cleanup owners.
> - This pull request separates state, initiation, provider completion
and explicit identity promotion.
> - The benefit is reviewable authorization flows with their existing
authority checks and ordering preserved.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Depends on #17161. Earlier stack: #17144 → #17146 → #17147 → #17155 →
#17157 → #17159 → #17161 → this PR.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Maintenance of browser authorization and credential-sharing lifecycle.

**Current behavior**

The 12,019-line service combines provider callbacks, actor-bound states,
authorization URLs and personal-to-company credential promotion.

**Proposed behavior**

Separate owners handle authorization state, start, direct/cloud/Vercel
callbacks, catalog completion and explicit access finalization. Shared
setup policy and identity checks have typed APIs used by the coordinator
and authorization owners.

**Reason and benefit**

The entry point falls to 8,997 lines, a reduction of 3,022.
Provider-specific state consumption and durable-write rules are visible
in their own modules.

## What Changed

- Extract authorization flows and their constraints; the largest new
module is 700 lines.
- Preserve direct/Vercel terminal state consumption and managed-cloud
retryability until claim persistence commits.
- Keep membership and grant locks, secret transaction clients,
interaction resolution and catalog ordering unchanged.
- Keep partial secret acquisition and cleanup together in access
finalization.
- Give shared organization-grant persistence, personal identity checks,
setup policy and response projections named owners.

## Verification

- All 470 public service and real local HTTP/PostgreSQL OAuth cases pass
before and after extraction.
- Coverage includes same-actor state binding, replay/denial, scope
selection, membership revocation, provider failures, refresh concurrency
and persisted usable credentials.
- Server typecheck, module-boundary gate and whitespace checks pass.
- All 182 pre-existing function/method bodies match by normalized syntax
comparison.
- The completed stack passes 525 targeted cases, full repository
typecheck and build. The earlier interrupted local full suite remains
unverified; all current-head CI gates pass; Greptile is 5/5 with no open
review threads.

- Original CI failure retained: [server shard
1/12](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39710536789/job/119600621627),
`workspace-runtime.test.ts` case “replaces a reused Paperclip dev
runtime whose 2xx health payload is unhealthy”. The fixture failed its
initial health readiness with `ECONNREFUSED` after 97 probes / 10
seconds. The fixture and runtime implementation are unchanged and do not
import this service. The isolated case passes without changing its
timeout or assertions. One retry of only that shard passed at the same
commit. All CI gates are now green; the original failure remains
recorded here.

## Risks

- Provider flows intentionally consume authorization state at different
points. This extraction preserves each flow rather than sharing its
completion algorithm.
- Promotion must remove partially created secrets on failure and retire
source secrets only after persistence. Both phases remain in the same
owner with unchanged ordering.
- Local HTTP fixtures prove assembled application behavior, not live
third-party qualification.
- No schema, public API or authorization policy change is intended.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 4fdef9457f refactor(tools): isolate credential ownership (#17161)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections need durable credentials that survive authorization and
token rotation.
> - Storage, registration, refresh coordination and credential selection
lived in the general tool service.
> - Each has a different ownership boundary: secrets, process-wide
registration, database leases and per-service refresh work.
> - This pull request gives those responsibilities named modules and
passes their narrow capabilities to consumers.
> - The benefit is visible credential ownership while retaining current
concurrency and failure behavior.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Depends on #17159. Earlier stack: #17144 → #17146 → #17147 → #17155 →
#17157 → #17159 → this PR.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Maintenance of OAuth credential persistence, refresh and provider
credential access.

**Current behavior**

The 14,877-line service owns registration flights, refresh leases,
secret writes and provider selection alongside app setup.

**Proposed behavior**

Dedicated owners handle credential storage, client registration, refresh
leases, connection/grant refresh, GitHub continuity and Vercel
credential access. Credential selection composes those owners.
Authorization callbacks remain in the coordinator for the next
extraction.

**Reason and benefit**

The entry point falls to 12,019 lines, a reduction of 2,858. Lease
acquisition and cleanup can be reviewed together, independently of
callback completion.

## What Changed

- Extract credential owners and shared single-flight/connection-link
primitives. The largest new module is 650 lines.
- Preserve process-wide client-registration flights, per-service refresh
maps and GitHub sweep state.
- Preserve live cloud-connector lookup, options and environment reads;
use the existing secret client and transaction-scoped clients.
- Extend the real local HTTP/PostgreSQL OAuth fixture with concurrent
refresh across two service instances and authenticated use of rotated
credentials.

## Verification

- The two extended HTTP integration cases pass before extraction for
public and client-secret-basic clients.
- After extraction, all 470 public service and HTTP integration cases
pass, including refresh failure, abandoned leases, secret redaction and
membership revocation cases. The fixture was then strengthened after
review: a second expiry must use the persisted rotated refresh token,
and the provider rejects the old token. Both cases pass before and after
extraction; server typecheck also passes.
- Server typecheck, module-boundary gate and diff whitespace checks
pass.
- All 233 pre-existing function/method bodies match by normalized syntax
comparison.
- Full typecheck/build will run at the stack handoff. The earlier
interrupted local full suite remains unverified; all current-head CI
gates pass, with Greptile 5/5 and no open review findings.

- Prior-head CI failure retained: run 39708550066, general server shard
2/12, `native-session-executor.test.ts` case “preserves a real listening
process and its marker when a health RPC times out” raised
`runner_remote_process_identity_unavailable` /
`process_identity_changed`. Both the fixture and runner implementation
are unchanged. The isolated case passes without changing assertions or
timeouts. The fresh full CI run passes for the test-only review fix; the
prior failure remains recorded here.

## Risks

- Changing state lifetime could permit duplicate refreshes or
registrations. Existing concurrency cases and the real HTTP fixture
exercise these paths.
- A transaction-scoped secret write must stay inside its authority lock.
Function bodies, await ordering and client arguments are preserved.
- The fixture proves assembled local HTTP/database behavior, not live
third-party qualification.
- No schema, public API, policy or scheduling change is intended.

DottaandPaperclip 4413bb262f refactor(tools): isolate OAuth protocol boundaries (#17147)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their access to external tools.
> - Tool connections use OAuth to obtain credentials from remote
providers.
> - The tool-access service mixed provider protocol parsing with
database and secret writes.
> - This made protocol changes hard to review without reading the full
coordinator.
> - This PR gives discovery, endpoint policy, and client exchange
explicit owners.
> - The coordinator keeps authorization, leases, persistence, and audit
decisions.
> - A real local provider fixture checks the boundary through public
routes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The ownership of OAuth discovery, registration, token exchange, and
client metadata.

**Current behavior**

The tool-access service contains over 20,000 lines. Provider responses,
endpoint policy, and stateful operations share the same closure.

**Proposed behavior**

Small protocol modules accept settings and named request capabilities.
They return normalized results. The service owns durable state and
existing public exports. This is part 3 of the stack: #17144, then
#17146, then this PR. It targets #17146's branch. Review only this PR's
diff.

## What Changed

- Extract endpoint policy, metadata parsing/discovery,
registration/token exchange, provider error normalization, and the
public client metadata document.
- Validate remote registration responses in the protocol module. Return
client material to the coordinator for secret and connection writes.
- Remove the unused raw provider response from the internal token
result. Keep every consumed field.
- Preserve process-wide registration single-flight, service-local maps,
refresh leases, membership checks, callback checks, and transaction
ownership.
- Reuse connection-method URL normalization. Keep the endpoint setting
and clock callbacks live.
- Add a real local HTTP OAuth/MCP route fixture for public and
Basic-authenticated clients.
- Reduce `tool-access.ts` from 20,917 lines / 808,777 bytes to 19,293
lines / 749,158 bytes. The seven OAuth modules total 1,697 lines; the
largest has 582 lines. The stack removes 2,232 lines from the original
service.
- Record the next profile-resolution and token-broker boundaries in the
dated plan.

## Verification

- Baseline: 466 service cases and 80 protocol/provider-policy cases
pass. The new two-case HTTP fixture passes before moving production
code.
- After: `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-oauth-protocol.integration.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/tool-access-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/remote-mcp-connectors.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/remote-http-rebinding.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/oauth-client-metadata.test.ts` — 508 tests pass
with one worker and disposable PostgreSQL.
- The fixture drives connect, metadata discovery, DCR, PKCE code
exchange, callback, catalog review, and finish. It checks persisted
active state, secret references, issuer/auth-method binding, and
wire-level authentication.
- `pnpm -r --workspace-concurrency=2 typecheck` passes. The sandbox-only
attempt could not open a local IPC socket; the same command passed with
local process permissions.
- `node scripts/check-module-boundaries.mjs` and `git diff --check`
pass.
- AST comparison confirms 37 moved bodies are unchanged. Registration
protocol and persistence statements match their original halves. Token
exchange only drops its unused raw result. Preflight uses explicit
defaults and a clock callback.
- Initial fixture authoring used a nonexistent catalog enabled field;
the corrected assertion checks persisted status and reviewer identity.
An initial typecheck found optional defaults at the new boundary; the
caller now passes its already-validated defaults.
- Final-stack local verification: `pnpm -r --workspace-concurrency=2
typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass. Remote CI is green at
`3dc46c132408556ecb31038a9b9621ac20aacefc`. Greptile is 5/5 with no
actionable findings or open inline threads.

- Full local-suite limitation: `pnpm test:run` was interrupted after 79
minutes during the serial general-server phase, after CI had completed
the full test matrix. Before interruption, it flagged the unchanged
`company-search-service.test.ts` suite (26 database cases skipped). One
isolated rerun passed all 28 cases without code changes. The original
log and a pre-interruption copy are preserved. The original failure
cause was not reproduced. The full local suite and its later groups are
not claimed as passed; the complete CI matrix is green on this stack.

## Risks

- OAuth endpoint checks and issuer/resource binding are security
boundaries. Existing denial, redirect, scope, DCR, secret-redaction, and
refresh tests cover the preserved paths.
- A moved closure could capture stale policy or split
registration/refresh ownership. The new modules hold no mutable state.
Policy is read through the existing callback, and state stays in the
service.
- The local fixture proves real HTTP and database behavior. It does not
claim a live third-party provider sign-in.
- No schema, API, authorization policy, or persisted-data migration
changes are intended.

## Model Used

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