Dotta eb7c7b083a Recover Muse verification after contact, restart and access restoration (#19909)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work under company access
rules.
> - Muse readiness uses a saved connection, receiver contact and an
authenticated challenge reply.
> - A failed challenge write could leave a saved contact with no later
recovery trigger.
> - A server restart or restored access must recover that contact under
current authority.
> - This pull request uses the existing delivery coordinator and saved
Muse state for recovery.
> - It keeps the normal receiver schedule, authorization checks and real
deadlines.
> - It lets eligible verification recover and lets idle verification
stop work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The first Muse receiver contact could persist while readiness challenge
creation failed. The contact then had no durable retry or startup
recovery path. Later membership, lifecycle or feature restoration could
also leave pending verification without a notice.

**Expected behavior**

Retry a temporary failure through the existing worker. Recover pending
contact after restart. Recheck the current company, agent, operator,
credential and binding generation before issuing a challenge. Stop
verification work while it is ineligible or complete. Do not revive
revoked credentials.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Use the normal invitation and OAuth registration, PKCE and token
flow.
2. Send one receiver contact and let its normal persistence schedule
run.
3. Fail the first readiness challenge operation before it commits.
4. Observe whether the existing worker retries without another contact
or a manual Verify action.
5. Restart the App with a new database owner. Check that it creates one
usable challenge from the saved contact.

**Paperclip version or commit**

The causal baseline test used the unchanged production implementation at
`90148317b2a447794ff29a4acae5648ad11a9770` plus its normal fixture. The
accepted positive test used `9d383041028776ad8469ac4af3fe14ba6c369425`.
The initial published head was
`fe518c9b72504daf6374225987f24d45bc7bcf75`. The lease/auth correction
was locally qualified at `cfd515a207416097fe8b586277d70c4fd4a679fa`. The
current candidate is `6efe722e7eb1e22acd466125c7b4a627611d0273`; its
added Cloud actor fixture correction passed the full normal owning
program and all 35 tests. Its current normal build, lifecycle owner
controls, healthy-wait and restoration measurements are described below.
Earlier results below are bound to their stated revisions.

Related public changes: Refs #19819 for original-principal
authentication. Refs #19750 for the transaction-owned external feature
read. These are related foundations, not duplicate fixes. The current
Muse title and head-branch searches found no duplicate
contact-verification recovery PR. Related maintenance work is #17000 and
terminal assignment settlement is #17793.

## What Changed

- Add a typed, exact-binding verification notice through the existing
Muse delivery queue.
- Register the first-contact notice before its durable write in the same
transaction.
- Recover pending contact from saved state at startup. Retry temporary
failures through the existing scheduler.
- Recheck current feature, lifecycle, credential and access state after
commit. Park unavailable authority without recurring verification scans.
- Add narrowly scoped notices to the existing access, lifecycle,
configuration, company, budget and settings write owners.
- Save a healthy lifecycle verification wait in the existing operation
JSONB. Keep generic unresolved-work and error retries unchanged.
- Commit authenticated confirmation and its lifecycle recheck in one
transaction. Retain a raced recheck under the active lease, and recover
saved waits once at startup.
- Retain a committed lifecycle recheck while an expired attempt still
owns the row, so its late wait cannot park accepted confirmation.
Replacement claims keep their existing owner fence and fresh fact read.
- Keep the receiver gap, persistence and per-segment contact limits
unchanged.
- Add real App OAuth, failure, retry, restart, challenge and quiet
evidence. Add two normal-route restoration tests.
- Document recovery, reconnect requirements and the existing
connected-receiver sleep restriction.

## Verification

- Causal baseline: the real invitation and OAuth flow saved one contact.
The first challenge operation failed. The normal test failed because it
observed one verification attempt instead of a retry. No setup or
cleanup failure was counted as this regression.
- At `9d383041`: normal own Shared/SDK, DB with migration 0441 assets,
Runner TypeScript core and surfaces, module boundaries, and all seven
normal App programs passed. One new redundant role comparison first
failed typecheck; that diagnostic remains recorded and the corrected
full App gate passed.
- At `9d383041`: all 17 maintenance component tests passed with zero
skips. All original deadline, rollback, drain, terminal settlement and
startup controls remain.
- At `9d383041`: the one normal App case passed. Real OAuth authorized
one receiver signal. A retry occurred about 5.01 seconds after the first
failure. A new Db/App owner created one challenge, advanced revision 2
to 3, and accepted authenticated confirmation and mailbox ACK. Query
instrumentation had an active positive control. All measured query,
callback, session and verifier counters stayed equal across the
unchanged scheduled 15-second quiet window. Token revocation and
old-token/signal rejection passed.
- Known App, worker, HTTP and database owners closed without cleanup
errors. The tests used bounded local PostgreSQL and HTTP fixtures. They
did not call a live Muse model.
- Current integrated semantics: the full normal App driver completed all
programs. Only a new test callback had two undefined-value diagnostics.
An explicit defined-value guard corrected that test. The full 416-root
owning program then passed with empty diagnostics. A separate collector
incorrectly required an explicit child `noEmit` field; the normal
inherited setting was verified without repeating the compiler. The
original failures remain recorded.
- The first restoration run failed both cases. Permission parking
recorded 120 main-pool queries without more verifier calls. The
lifecycle counter recorded two denials without their exact scope. These
observations remain unexplained at the individual-query/call level.
Source separately shows a lifecycle readiness retry every two seconds
while the real external reply is absent.
- At `fe518c9b`: normal Shared/SDK and DB producers, module policy, all
seven full App programs, and all 33 pure diagnostic controls passed. The
lifecycle owner file passed all 19 cases, including both
confirmation/park orders, rollback, duplicate notices, startup recovery
and authority controls.
- At `fe518c9b`: the normal OAuth failure/retry/new-Db reconstruction
case passed. Its new healthy-wait window measured 15,002 ms with
unchanged total activity before genuine confirmation; the existing ready
quiet and revocation checks also passed.
- At `fe518c9b`: both normal restoration tests passed in Vitest.
Ordinary viewer-to-operator restoration and Pause/Resume recovered the
same binding, grant and single contact; each committed one challenge and
advanced revision 2 to 3. All six parked, restored and revoked/disabled
quiet windows measured at least 15 seconds with active positive read
controls and unchanged total queries, callbacks, sessions and verifier
calls. Both cleanups passed.
- The restoration wrapper still recorded failure: it required lifetime
lifecycle denial count zero, whereas the measured count was one before
the parked quiet window. The reviewed fixture explicitly permits a
current-authority denial from an earlier observation and requires no
committed challenge before restoration. Precise denial timing relative
to Pause was not serialized. The original wrapper failure is retained;
no rerun or retrospective explanation of the earlier failures is
claimed.
- Review exposed an expired-lease race. The added real-store baseline
test failed after the late defer restored `waitingForSignal`; no setup
or timeout was counted as the regression. On `cfd515a`, the whole
lifecycle owner file passed all 20 tests, including that case. The full
normal production declaration program (1067 roots), verification program
(662), and auth owning program (405) passed; all 1942 declarations
remained byte-identical.
- The original remote auth-session shard failed three tests because
their partial query adapters lacked the new binding query's
join/order/limit chain. A fixture-only correction preserved the real
notifier and existing authorization assertions. All 12 auth-session
tests passed locally.
- Complete remote inspection also found 33 failures in the 35-test Cloud
actor fixture with the same missing `innerJoin` method and downstream
incomplete-auth assertions. Its original full log and exact synthetic
Source comparison are retained. At `6efe722e`, the three-line fixture
adapter repair passed the complete normal 662-root test program and the
whole 35-test file with zero failures or skips. All existing lock,
authorization, settings, debounce and unfinished-auth assertions remain.
- The earlier healthy/restoration quiet measurements remain bound to
`fe518c9b`. Those steady 15-second windows did not exercise a
still-owned attempt passing its 120-second lease. The targeted
expired-owner regression qualifies that new boundary; it is not a fresh
measurement of the earlier windows.
- The initial `fe518c9b` remote gates failed the auth fixtures and
reported a Greptile 4/5 P1. The aggregate failure reported the
underlying shard. Those actual causes were fixed and qualified above.
- Current `6efe722e` remote gates completed with **57 successful checks
and three explicit skips**. The full latest edited Greptile summary is
**5/5**, explicitly reviews this exact head, and has no new finding. The
original P1 thread is resolved. All general, inline and nested review
pages were read.
- One current-head CI attempt timed out after 30 seconds in the Runner
evidence/privacy file, with 6,864 passes and one failure. That file and
its transitive inputs are byte-identical to the CI base. A separate
local diagnostic preserved every assertion and the original timeout, ran
the full normal Runner test project and the entire 41-case file, and
passed all 41 with zero skips. Its private bounded timing records
measured the target body at 74 ms. The diagnostic was then removed,
restoring the exact original test. This is local recovery evidence; the
original CI stalled await was not recorded and its cause remains
**unproven**.
- One retry of only the failed jobs on the unchanged head passed the
Runner support suite and dependent aggregate verification. The complete
second attempt and original failure logs are preserved. No test,
timeout, privacy guard or product code was weakened. This result does
not turn the original timeout into an explained failure or a diagnosed
flake.
- Full recursive typecheck, full `test:run` and a full release build
were not repeated locally. The normal full App programs, focused
producers and tests above passed, and the required current-head remote
gates passed. Final review is against the exact unchanged head; local
quiet remains separate from deployed suspension.

Reviewer commands use the normal project entry points: `node
server/scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs`, the whole
`server/src/services/muse-maintenance.test.ts` file, and both normal App
PostgreSQL files. PostgreSQL fixtures require explicit owned
fixture/admin URLs and normal migrations before imports. Run the files
serially with one worker. The private controller retains exact Source,
output, worker and owner-closure receipts.

## Risks

- Missing or early producer notices could lose a restoration trigger.
Notices stay in the transaction that commits the write. The worker
checks current authority after commit.
- A stale notice must not grant access. Binding generation, current
membership, company, agent and credential checks remain authoritative.
Revoked credentials require reconnecting.
- The change adds no table, migration, alternate task queue or periodic
verification scan. It adds two optional fields to existing lifecycle
operation JSONB. Generic pending/error deadlines, setup holds and manual
repair remain obligations.
- Confirmation can race with an active verification attempt. The park
compare-and-set must retain the durable recheck. Startup recovery uses a
fixed cutoff and keyset pages; it must not become another recurring
scan. Wrong company, stale version, pause and revoked credentials must
stay fenced.
- The connected receiver still has its documented tenant-sleep
restriction. Worker quiet is not proof of deployed suspension or
external wake.
- The normal challenge reply is sent by an authenticated protocol
fixture. Live Muse background replies, cost/usage, full Muse lifecycle
and full hosted Dot behavior remain unqualified. Partial Dot profile ACK
and unsigned-device cutover stay withheld.
- Restoration coverage for the additional company, budget, configuration
and feature producers remains a separate qualification obligation. This
pull request does not mark the whole hosted area complete.

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` authored the implementation and tests with local
code and tool use. A GPT-6-based Codex coordinator reviewed the changes
and owns integration. Its exact underlying model ID is not exposed.
Context window sizes are unavailable. No context size is inferred.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 adb7633d7b fix(status-cards): give agents the person's restore route when archiving a card (#19903)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Status cards are saved summaries of company work. People and agents
can archive and restore them.
> - A person asked a chat agent to archive a card "to reuse it next
quarter". The agent archived it correctly.
> - The archive response had no board route, and the PATCH operation had
no description. The completion guidance tells agents not to guess
routes.
> - So the agent told the person to restore the card "by clearing
`archived`". That is an API instruction, not a route a person can use.
> - This pull request gives single-card responses an `href` to the
Status page and documents archive and restore on the PATCH operation.
> - The benefit is that an agent can give the person a usable link and a
true account of restore, which starts a fresh summary.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**
A chat agent archived a status card. Its reply told the person to
restore the card by clearing `archived` on the card. It gave no link to
the place where a person restores it.

**Expected behavior**
The reply links the card on the Status page, where a person can show
archived cards and click Restore. It also says that restore starts a
fresh summary.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Enable status cards and create a card as an agent.
2. Ask the CEO agent in chat to archive the card for later reuse.
3. Read the reply. It has no usable restore route, because `PATCH
/api/status-cards/{id}` returns no `href` and has no description.

## What Changed

- `POST /api/companies/{companyId}/status-cards`, `GET
/api/status-cards/{id}` and `PATCH /api/status-cards/{id}` now return
`href`, the company-scoped Status page route for the card.
- The shared `statusCardSchema` has an optional `href` field.
- The `PATCH /api/status-cards/{id}` OpenAPI operation has a
description. It says that archive keeps the card and its history, that a
person restores it on the Status page with the returned `href`, and that
restore starts a fresh full summary.
- The create route reads the company issue prefix before it creates the
card. A failed link lookup can not delete a card whose compile task is
queued.
- Regression tests cover the `href` on the archive and get responses,
the new PATCH description, and a failed prefix read on create (no card
and no task are left).

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/status-cards.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts` (71 tests pass). The new
create-route test fails on the first commit and passes on the fix.
- End to end: the chat eval `status-cards.archive-card` runs with this
change on an eval branch. The result is in the eval report for that
case.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change adds one optional response field and one
description. List responses do not change. The UI ignores the new field.
- Each single-card response does one more small company read for the
issue prefix. On create, this read occurs before the card exists, so its
failure leaves nothing behind.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 0f19eb39d3 fix(chat): link the profile of an agent chat acted on (#19893)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent Chat lets a person ask the CEO agent to act on other agents,
for example to resume a paused agent
> - The chat guidance tells the agent how to link tasks, but it does not
tell the agent how to link an agent profile
> - In a chat eval, the CEO resumed Morgan and reported the result, but
the reply had no link to Morgan
> - The person then has no direct route to check the saved availability
of the agent
> - This pull request adds one guidance sentence for agent profile links
> - The benefit is that a reply about an agent gives the person a link
to that agent

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A person asked the chat agent: "Resume Morgan so they can pick up their
work." The agent resumed Morgan through the API and reported the new
status. The reply did not link Morgan's profile. The chat guidance gives
only the task-link template (`/<prefix>/issues/<identifier>`), so the
agent had no route for an agent.

**Expected behavior**
When a reply is about a specific agent, the reply links that agent's
profile at `/<prefix>/agents/<urlKey or id>`. The link is a plain
profile link. It is not an `agent://` mention, because a mention
notifies the agent.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Pause an agent named Morgan.
2. In Agent Chat with the CEO, send "Resume Morgan so they can pick up
their work."
3. Read the reply. It reports the resume but has no link to Morgan.

Refs #19889 (adds the run-link template in the same guidance; this
change merges cleanly with it).

## What Changed

- `server/src/services/agent-conversations.ts`: add one sentence to the
chat directive. It tells chat to link an affected agent's profile at
`/<prefix>/agents/<urlKey or id>`, and to use `agent://` only to notify
an agent.
- `server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: add a regression
test that checks the directive and the built task prompt contain the
profile-link guidance.

## Verification

- `cd server && pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts -t "chat prompt policy"`
passes (7 tests).
- The new test fails on `origin/master`, because the directive does not
contain the sentence.
- The route exists in `ui/src/App.tsx` (`agents/:agentId`), and the UI
accepts a url key or an id.
- End to end: the `agents.resume-agent` chat eval runs with this change
on its case branch.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change adds prompt text only. No API, schema, or UI
behavior changes.
- The prompt becomes one sentence longer.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), agentic coding with
tool use (shell, file edit), extended reasoning.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 29b6411660 fix(chat): give chat replies the approval route (#19892)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agent Chat lets a person ask their agent about company state, such
as "What decisions are waiting on me?"
> - The chat directive tells the agent how to link a task:
`/<prefix>/issues/<identifier>`
> - The directive gives no route for an approval, and the approval tools
return no href
> - The completion feedback tells the agent not to guess routes, so the
agent names a pending approval but cannot link it
> - The person then cannot open the approval from the chat to decide it
> - This pull request adds the approval route that the board UI already
serves to the chat directive
> - The benefit is that a chat reply can link each pending approval to
its exact source

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In the Agent Chat eval `inbox-search.show-decisions`, the person asked
"What decisions are waiting on me?". The agent found the pending hire
approval and listed it. It did not link it. Its recorded reasoning said
that it had no known href for approvals and that it must not invent
URLs. Task sources in the same reply had working links.

**Expected behavior**
The reply links the pending approval, so the person can open it and
decide it.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a pending `hire_agent` approval in a company.
2. In Agent Chat, ask "What decisions are waiting on me?".
3. See that the reply names the approval but gives no link to it.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at the base of this branch.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Not adapter-specific (core bug). The chat directive is shared by all
runners.

## What Changed

- `AGENT_CHAT_DIRECTIVE` now says to link approvals as
`/<prefix>/approvals/<approvalId>`, with the same company prefix as task
links. The board UI serves this route (`approvals/:approvalId` in
`ui/src/App.tsx`).
- Added a regression test that the directive gives routes for both tasks
and approvals and keeps the "never invent a hostname" rule.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts` passes (41 tests). The
new test fails without the directive change.
- End to end: the change is cherry-picked onto the eval branch
`chat-eval/case-show-decisions` and run in the Runner Full-Stack E2E
workflow for
`chat-features.runner-opencode.local.inbox-search.show-decisions`.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change adds one sentence to the chat prompt. It does not
change routes, permissions or tool results.
- The prompt becomes slightly longer for every chat turn.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip ee556a266d perf(storage): upload workspace snapshots in parallel verified parts (#19917)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - With remote (sandbox) execution, every agent turn ends by saving the
workspace: capture an archive, encrypt it, upload it to object storage,
and verify it.
> - On a busy S3-backed instance, the upload step is the slowest part of
a save. A 1.5 GB workspace can hold a run open for minutes after the
agent finished.
> - The upload step reads the archive several times, uploads through one
stream with 4 parts in flight, and then downloads the whole object again
to verify it.
> - Parts that use the stream path share one process-wide 32 MiB buffer
window, so saves that run at the same time slow each other down.
> - This pull request uploads parts in parallel straight from the
encrypted file, lets the backend verify every part with Content-MD5, and
replaces the full read-back with a size check for those verified
uploads.
> - The benefit is faster saves, a smaller run-finalization window, and
no interference between concurrent saves.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
Remote workspace snapshot upload (`uploadWorkspaceSnapshot`) to
S3-compatible storage.

**Subsystem affected**
Server storage (`server/src/storage/*`) and remote workspace snapshot
storage.

**Current behavior**
For one save, the upload step:
1. hashes the archive;
2. reads the archive again to encrypt it into a temporary file;
3. hashes the encrypted file;
4. uploads it as one stream with 4 parts in flight;
5. downloads the whole object to verify it.

On one hosted instance over 7 days (724 saves, median 731 MB), the
upload step ran at a median of 6.5 MB/s. With no other save running it
reached 11–14 MB/s. With six or more saves at the same time it fell to
4.4 MB/s. From the same region and with the same part settings, a plain
client reached 31 MB/s to the same kind of bucket.

**Proposed behavior**
Upload parts in parallel from byte ranges of the encrypted file, with
Content-MD5 on each part. Confirm only the stored size after a verified
upload. Digest the archive in the same pass that encrypts it.

**Reason and benefit**
Saves finish faster and hold their run open for less time. Concurrent
saves no longer serialize on the shared buffer window. A transient part
failure is retried from disk instead of failing the whole save.

**Breaking changes**
None. `StorageProvider.putObject` may now return a receipt. Providers
that return nothing keep the current behavior, including the full
read-back.

Related: none found.

## What Changed

- `storage/types.ts`, `storage/service.ts`: an upload can name its
`sourceFile`, a private file whose bytes are exactly the body.
`putObject` may return `{ integrity: "server_verified_md5" }`, and
`putFile` passes it through as `PutFileResult.integrity`.
- `storage/s3-multipart.ts`: new `putS3MultipartFile`.
- Each part reads its own byte range of the file. Up to 8 parts upload
at once, with no shared buffer window.
  - Each part carries the Content-MD5 of its range.
  - A failed part is resent from disk, up to 3 attempts.
- The first part that runs out of attempts stops its siblings. The
multipart upload is aborted only after every part settles.
- A source file whose size differs from the declared length is refused
before any request.
- `storage/s3-provider.ts`:
- A `sourceFile` larger than 16 MiB uses `putS3MultipartFile`. A smaller
one uses one PUT with Content-MD5.
- These requests use a second client with `requestChecksumCalculation:
"WHEN_REQUIRED"`, so bodies are plain and the backend verifies
Content-MD5 directly. The default client wraps bodies in aws-chunked
framing with a CRC32 trailer.
  - Other uploads are unchanged.
- `services/remote-workspace-snapshot-storage.ts`:
- Encryption digests the plaintext in the same read. An unchanged file
identity (dev, inode, size, mtime, ctime) across that read replaces the
separate digest pass. A change still fails with `archive_changed` before
any upload.
- The encrypted file is still digested from disk, so the recorded hash
covers the exact bytes that the parts read.
- The upload passes `sourceFile`. When the provider reports
`server_verified_md5`, a HEAD confirms the stored size instead of
downloading the object.
  - The full read-back stays for:
    - other providers (local disk);
    - recovery of earlier attempts;
    - the caller that keeps a verified archive file.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`: exit 0.
- `vitest run src/__tests__/storage-s3-multipart.test.ts
src/services/remote-workspace-snapshot-storage.test.ts`: 59 passed. New
tests:
- every part carries the Content-MD5 of its range, and 8 parts are in
flight;
  - a failed part is resent and the upload completes;
- a part that keeps failing aborts the upload only after in-flight
siblings settle;
  - a size mismatch is refused before any request;
- a small file goes as one PUT with Content-MD5, through a real HTTP
server;
- the read-back is skipped only for a server-verified upload, and the
snapshot still restores;
  - the read-back stays when the caller keeps the read-back file;
  - a stored size mismatch is rejected;
  - an archive that changes during encryption is rejected before upload.
- With the source change reverted, the three new snapshot tests fail.
- Real S3-compatible bucket (a Railway bucket, run from a workstation):
- A 3 MiB single PUT stored exactly: HEAD size, ETag and read-back
SHA-256 all matched.
  - A 96 MiB, 13-part upload stored exactly, with the same checks.
  - A part with a wrong Content-MD5 was rejected with `BadDigest`.
- The same backend stored a wrong `x-amz-checksum-sha256` without
checking it. That is why this change uses Content-MD5.
- Measured from a container in the app's region, 1 GiB with the app's
settings (8 MiB parts, 4 in flight), to the same kind of bucket: 31
MB/s. With 16 in flight: 69 MB/s.
- 77 storage-related suites: the only failures are the same 19 that fail
on unmodified `master` in this checkout. They are in 4 files: missing
bundled connector skills and an unbuilt local runner daemon.

## Risks

- Integrity now depends on the backend enforcing Content-MD5 for file
uploads. AWS S3 and the tested S3-compatible backend enforce it. A
backend that ignores Content-MD5 would accept corrupted parts without a
read-back. A later restore still fails closed: AES-GCM authentication
and the plaintext SHA-256 are checked on load.
- Up to 8 parallel part requests per save, instead of 4 shared ones.
Memory per part is a 64 KiB stream buffer.
- Archive-change detection now uses file identity instead of a second
digest. The archive lives in a private temporary directory that the
capture step creates.
- Medium risk overall: the change is limited to file-sourced S3 uploads
and the snapshot verify step.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 fc6e1b0346 perf(native): keep local Codex and OpenCode runners warm by default (#19888)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - When someone messages an agent, the turn must start fast. Time to
first token (TTFT) is a first-class metric.
> - The Phase 0 baseline (#19846) found that every local turn launches a
new runner and loads the provider session again, because `per_turn` is
the default lifecycle. That made a follow-up message slower than a new
task.
> - Warm runners keep the runner and provider session alive between
runs. #19874 fixed the defect that broke warm OpenCode follow-ups, and
#19879 bounds an idle warm runner whose controller dies.
> - This pull request makes warm the default for local Codex and
OpenCode agents, and migrates existing agents that only carried the old
creation default.
> - The benefit: follow-up TTFT p50 drops from 12.0 s to 4.7 s (Codex)
and from 21.7 s to 4.2 s (OpenCode), with no new restart-chaos failures.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19846 (TTFT baseline), #19852 (startup sub-spans), #19874 (warm
completion contract), #19879 (warm reconnect grace).

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The default runner lifecycle for native agents, and how a follow-up
message starts.

**Current behavior**
Agent creation writes `lifecycleMode: "per_turn"` into every native
agent. Every follow-up launches a new runner and restores the provider
session: 4.2 s (Codex) and 16.3 s (OpenCode) at p50 before the turn
starts.

**Proposed behavior**
New native agents store no lifecycle. On a local target, an unset
lifecycle resolves to `warm` with the default 5-minute idle window for
Codex and OpenCode. Other harnesses, remote targets and managed
providers without warm support stay `per_turn`. An explicit choice
always wins. Migration 0443 clears the stored creation default from
existing agents, except where an edit set "Turn by turn" explicitly.

**Reason and benefit**
Measured locally (`doc/plans/2026-11-07-warm-follow-up-ttft.md`). Warm
follow-ups are 2.6–5× faster for Codex and OpenCode, and restart
recovery latency is equal or lower.

## What Changed

- `native-lifecycle.ts`: an unset `agentMode` resolves to warm (5-minute
idle window) for local `codex_app_server` and `opencode_server` agents.
`runtime-selection.ts` passes `localTarget`. Explicit `per_turn` or
`warm` wins. An admitted session keeps its persisted policy. ACPX Claude
stays `per_turn`: it relaunches its provider process on every follow-up
by design, so warm did not shorten its follow-up (10.7 s warm vs 10.5 s
per_turn).
- Creation and configuration writes no longer store `lifecycleMode:
"per_turn"` for Codex, Claude or OpenCode. This covers
`normalizePaperclipRunnerAdapterConfig` (runs on every create and
update), `paperclipRunnerTransitionConfig` (switching to the native
runner), `agent-runner-selection.ts`, `codex-local` `build-config.ts`,
and the simplified new-agent setup (`paperclipRunnerCreationLifecycle`
in `@paperclipai/shared`). Grok, Pi and Cursor keep their explicit
value.
- Agent form: the Runner lifecycle field shows the unset state as
"Automatic". "Turn by turn" and "Warm session" remain.
- Migration `0443_native_warm_follow_up_default.sql`: clears
`lifecycleMode = 'per_turn'` from native Codex, OpenCode and Claude
agents unless `agent_config_revisions` shows an edit that set it to
`per_turn`. Each migrated agent gets an `agent.updated` activity entry
with the old value (`actor_id =
migration:native-warm-follow-up-default`). Creation records no revision,
so a "Turn by turn" pick made at creation cannot be told apart from the
old default. The product owner approved migrating those agents. Claude
agents follow the default, which is `per_turn` today.
- Restart chaos harness and TTFT driver: `--lifecycle
per_turn|warm|default` (saved in the wave plan). `default` removes the
catalog's pinned lifecycle, so a wave exercises the real default path.
- Docs: `doc/DEVELOPING.md` "Runner lifecycle default", and the results
in `doc/plans/2026-11-07-warm-follow-up-ttft.md`, which also documents
baseline finding 4 (Claude's resumed turn-start gap is ACPX's per-turn
process generation, not the provider).

## Verification

- `server`: `native-lifecycle.test.ts` (new default cases: local Codex
and OpenCode warm, Claude, remote, unknown target, unmeasured harness,
managed Claude, admitted per-turn session, explicit choices, non-native
adapter), `agent-runner-selection.test.ts`, `runtime-selection.test.ts`
(335 pass).
- `packages/db`: `native-warm-follow-up-default-migration.test.ts` on
embedded Postgres. Default agents are cleared, the explicit edit is
kept, other harnesses and legacy adapters are untouched, audit rows are
written once, and a rerun is a no-op. Without the explicit-edit filter
the test fails. `check:migrations` passes.
- `codex-local` `build-config.test.ts` (65), `ui`
`config-fields.test.tsx` (40), restart-chaos unit tests (134), `tsc
--noEmit` for `server`.
- `adapter-utils` `paperclip-runner-lifecycle-default.test.ts`:
configuration writes and adapter conversion store no lifecycle for
Codex, OpenCode and Claude, keep `per_turn` for the others, and preserve
explicit choices. It fails without the fix.
- End-to-end default check on this branch (`ttft-baseline.ts --lifecycle
default`, codex and opencode, 2 samples): the agents read back with no
stored lifecycle, and every follow-up reused the runner and provider
session (no `runner.process.launch`). Follow-up TTFT was 3.6–4.8 s. This
check found the per-write `per_turn` injection fixed here.
- Restart chaos (codex and opencode, A1/B1/B5, K1/K2/K6, seed 4242), 8/8
PASS each with no open signatures: forced warm, forced per_turn, and
`--lifecycle default` on this branch (agents created without a
lifecycle).
- `pnpm verify` selects broader CI (harness config is a global input),
so required CI supplies the broad coverage.

## Risks

- Behavior change: local Codex and OpenCode agents keep a runner and
provider process for up to 5 minutes after a run. Instance sleep waits
for that idle window. The process is reaped by the idle timer, by
graceful shutdown, or by the #19879 reconnect grace if its controller
dies.
- Migration: agents whose "Turn by turn" was chosen at creation become
Automatic. The activity entry records the old value; choosing "Turn by
turn" restores it.
- Previous-release story (`rules/upgrade-safe-run-state.mdc`): a task
session keeps the lifecycle policy it was admitted with, so sessions
saved before this change stay `per_turn`. New sessions get the default.
No run, checkpoint or launch state changes shape.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 988a4b6749 feat(recovery): ownable-kind registry and report-only ownership reconciler (#19861)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A control-plane restart leaves in-progress records owned by dead
processes, and about 31 per-subsystem proofs decide when to release them
> - The durable ownership plan (section C) asks for one registry of
ownable record kinds and one reconciler
> - Phase 1 must measure first: how many in-progress records exist, who
owns them, and which invariants they break, with no behavior change
> - This pull request registers 46 kinds from the Phase 0 inventory's
section C and adds a report-only pass to the existing native
finalization reconciler
> - The benefit is per-kind invariant-violation counts from chaos waves
and staging. That data unlocks Phase 2 (moving kinds onto one settle
path) and the removal of the company-wide admission gate

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19831 (plan, section C and Phase 1). Refs #19846 (Phase 0
inventory, section C). Stacked on #19853 (the prover) and #19851 (one
process identity).

**Problem**
No single place lists the control plane's in-progress records or checks
the plan's invariants. Each subsystem releases its own records by its
own rules, so nobody can count how many records break "owned", "settled"
or "visible next action".

**Expected behavior**
One report-only pass lists every registered kind, classifies each owner
as gone, alive or unprovable, and records each invariant violation once.
It changes no record and stays quiet when nothing is in progress.

**Impact**
Phase 2 moves kinds onto the shared settle path in the order these
counts show. Phase 3 removes the admission gate once the I3 data exists.

## What Changed

- New `server/src/services/recovery/ownership-registry.ts`: 46
`OwnableKind` entries (`id`, `obligation`, `storage`, `listInProgress`,
`settle: null`, `invariantChecks`). Each record names its owner as a
process stamp, a fence token, a run, an operator, or none. The
skill-cache lock is registered with a named coverage gap because its
lock files live in per-skill roots.
- New `server/src/services/recovery/ownership-invariant-report.ts`: one
pass classifies every owner with `proveOwnerGone` (or the owning run's
status), then runs:
  - I1 owned: an in-progress record with no owner;
- I2 settled: an owner proven gone on two consecutive passes while the
record is still in progress;
- I3 admission independence: terminal runs whose accounting outlives the
10 min closure, which hold company admission;
- I4 exactly-once intents: wake requests ended `skipped`/`failed` on a
temporary refusal (heuristic until section E);
- I7 visible next action: an agent-assigned `in_progress` issue with no
live run, no pending wake and no open recovery action for 5 min.
- I5, I6 and I8 are reported as named coverage gaps; I8 comes in the
speed-budget PR.
- Violations are written once per process to the activity log as
`recovery.invariant_violation` (`actorId: ownership-reconciler`,
`details.mode: report_only`), insert-only with no live-event or plugin
fan-out. Nothing goes to Telemetry (AGENTS.md §5.7).
- `native-finalization-reconciler.ts`:
`registerOwnershipReconciliationWork` runs the pass in the shared
delivery-work scheduler (new queue `ownership-invariant-report`). There
is no second loop.
- `index.ts` registers it after residual recovery and does not await its
first pass, so readiness is not delayed.

### Sleep-aware trigger (rules/sleep-aware-background-work.mdc)

- **Trigger:** one pass at registration (startup reconstruction from
durable truth). After that, a settled `active-execution-recovery`
signal, which run lifecycle, controller renewal and process-evidence
writes already emit. Signals are coalesced to at most one pass per 30 s.
No producer gained a write.
- **Pending predicate and next deadline:** a 30 s follow-up only while
the last pass saw a changing in-progress set, or an owner proven gone
that needs the second I2 pass.
- **Quiet:** an empty set or the same stuck set twice sets no deadline.
The test asserts `nextWakeAt() === null` after an idle pass.
- **Turn path:** the pass never runs before `turn.start`. Stamps read
only cached identity.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/ownership-reconciliation-report.test.ts`
(embedded Postgres, in `server/`): 4 tests pass:
  - every kind is registered once with no settle path;
- verdicts per class: alive (this process's claim), gone (lease of a
failed run), unprovable (no owner; another PID space);
- each rule fires on its fixture, and I2 fires only on the second pass;
- every touched table is byte-identical before and after (report-only);
- activity rows are written once per violation, and none are written
with `record: false`;
- the worker is quiet when idle and schedules a follow-up only while
records change.
- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/delivery-work-coordinator.test.ts
src/services/owner-proof.test.ts
src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts`: pass.
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p server`: no errors.

## Risks

- No record changes, so no settle risk. The risk is load: one pass runs
about 46 small indexed or `limit 201` queries, at most once per 30 s
while runs are active, and none when idle.
- I4 matches refusal text with a heuristic. It can over- or under-count
until section E gives wake requests closed terminal reasons. It is
labelled as such in the code.
- Violations dedupe per process, so a restart writes a still-open
violation again (once per boot). Chaos reports count distinct `(rule,
entityId)`.
- Previous-release story (`rules/upgrade-safe-run-state.mdc`): no
persisted run state changes. The pass reads rows of any age, and a
missing field classifies as unprovable.
- `heartbeat_runs` and `native_run_finalizations` record no host or PID
space, so foreign-boot owners there classify as unprovable
(`missing_identity`). This is the inventory's finding 2, and the report
makes it countable.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 25273aa69b fix(onboarding): start the agent when the opening question is answered (#19886)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A new company starts with an onboarding first task. The task opens
with a greeting and an opening question card that the assignee agent
posts.
> - Onboarding does not wake the agent when it creates the task. The
user's answer must start the agent.
> - When the user clicks an answer, run dispatch cancels the agent's run
0.4 seconds later with `issue_not_in_progress`. Answer continuations
only start on `in_progress` or `in_review` tasks, and the onboarding
task is still `todo`.
> - The user sees nothing until an unrelated bounded retry starts the
agent about two minutes later. This is the first thing every new user
does.
> - This pull request lets an answer start a `todo` task when the task
has never started and no run asked the question.
> - The benefit is that the agent starts immediately after the first
answer. The protection for parked tasks does not change.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
I created a new company and clicked an option on the onboarding opening
question ("What would you like to do?"). The agent's run was cancelled
immediately with `issue_not_in_progress`: "Cancelled because
resolved-interaction continuation issue is no longer in_progress
(current status: todo) before the queued run could start". The task
stayed in `todo`. About two minutes later, a `transient_failure` bounded
retry of the cancelled run started the agent through the normal checkout
path.

**Expected behavior**
The agent starts as soon as the user answers the opening question.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a new company and hire the first agent through onboarding.
2. Open the onboarding first task.
3. Click an option on the opening question card and submit.
4. Look at the agent's runs. The first run is `cancelled` with
`issue_not_in_progress`.

**Paperclip version or commit**
`master` at `86bc3db6938`. The same code is on `00ad9503fe3`.

**Relevant logs or output**
```
heartbeat_runs: status=cancelled error_code=issue_not_in_progress
  "Cancelled because resolved-interaction continuation issue is no longer in_progress (current status: todo) before the queued run could start"
two minutes later: "Scheduled bounded retry 1/2" (retryReason transient_failure)
```

Related: #13068 added the onboarding opening question. #13318 made
answer continuations require `in_progress` or `in_review`.

## What Changed

- New `server/src/services/unstarted-task-question-answer.ts`.
`isUnstartedTaskQuestionAnswer` returns true only when all of these are
true:
- the interaction is an answered question (`ask_user_questions`, status
`answered`) on this task, and it has no `sourceRunId` (no run asked it);
  - the task is `todo`;
  - the task's `startedAt` is null.
It reads only server-owned rows. `startedAt` is never cleared, so a task
that started and was later moved back to `todo` does not match.
- `run-dispatch/adapters/postgres.ts`: the staleness facts include
`isUnstartedTaskQuestionAnswer`. The adapter reads it under the issue
lock, and only for a resolved-interaction continuation on a `todo` task.
- `run-dispatch/domain/policy.ts`: `decideQueuedRunStaleness` lets such
a continuation start from `todo`. The other answer continuations still
require `in_progress` or `in_review`.
- `services/heartbeat.ts`: the final continuation checkout adds `todo`
to the expected statuses only for the same case. The task then moves to
`in_progress` in the same guarded update.

## Verification

- `heartbeat-stale-queue-invalidation.test.ts` (embedded Postgres):
- New test: an answer to a question that no run asked, on a
never-started `todo` task, starts the assignee. The task moves to
`in_progress` under the run's execution lock. With the fix reverted,
this test fails with the reported error (`cancelled`,
`issue_not_in_progress`).
- New test: three regression cases stay cancelled with
`issue_not_in_progress`:
    - an answer on a task that started and was moved back to `todo`;
    - an answer to a question that an agent run asked;
    - a rejected confirmation that no run asked.
    Without the kind and status check, the confirmation case fails.
- `policy.test.ts`: the new fact allows `todo`. The same fact on a
`backlog` task is still cancelled.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`: exit 0.
- `npx vitest run` on these suites: 8 files, 497 tests passed.
  - stale-queue invalidation
  - run-dispatch policy
  - onboarding first-task routes
  - onboarding first-task admission
  - question-response delivery
  - issue-thread interaction routes
  - heartbeat retry scheduling
  - legacy continuation authority

## Risks

- Low risk. The change only affects answer continuations on `todo` tasks
that have never started, where the question has no source run. All other
continuations behave as before.
- The exception is not limited to the onboarding card. Any answered
question that no run asked, on a never-started `todo` task, can now
start the assignee. This matches what a plain comment wake does on a
`todo` task. Confirmations and other interaction kinds keep the existing
rule. For example, rejecting a confirmation that no run asked still does
not start the task.
- The final checkout does one extra indexed read. It only runs for
resolved-interaction continuations on `todo` tasks.
- I did not find which component scheduled the two-minute
`transient_failure` retry. After this change, onboarding does not depend
on that retry.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 f439150cb3 fix(recovery): limit the null-host owner fallback to single-host servers and record each use (#19883)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - #19868 and #19871 made restart recovery judge a recorded pid only in
the PID space that recorded it
> - Rows saved before those host columns existed have no recorded host.
They kept the previous local dead-pid proof, so in-flight native runs
would not be stranded at upgrade
> - On an ephemeral (multi-host) server that fallback is unsafe: the row
may have been written on another host
> - This pull request limits the fallback to single-host servers,
records every use, and gives ephemeral servers a working board action
> - The benefit is that single-host upgrades still recover on their own,
multi-host servers never accept a cross-host proof, and the next release
can remove the fallback with evidence

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Bug description**
After #19868 and #19871, a `native_run_finalizations` row with
`controller_host_hash = null`, or a run with `process_host_hash = null`,
still accepted "the pid is dead here" as proof on every server. That
includes an ephemeral server, where the row may come from another host.
Nothing recorded how often the fallback was used, so it had no safe
removal path.

**Expected behavior**
- Single-host server: the fallback applies for one release, and each use
writes a `legacy_host_unknown_dead_pid_proof` activity-log entry.
- Ephemeral server (`PAPERCLIP_EPHEMERAL_SERVER=true`): the row is
unprovable, and the board has an action to confirm the previous server
stopped.
- A mismatched host is always unprovable.

Refs #19868, #19871, #19846

## What Changed

- `native-restart-recovery.ts` `evaluateNativeControllerTakeover`:
- A coordinator row with `controllerHostHash: null` returns
`controller_host_unrecorded` when `ephemeralServerEnabled()` is true.
- Otherwise a pid proof from that row carries `legacyHostFallback:
true`.
- `operator_attested` is accepted as proof
(`operator_attested_controller_stopped`).
  - Receipt-built owners, which have no host key, are unchanged.
- New `recordLegacyHostFallbackProof` writes the activity-log entry. It
is not a run-log event: run events are progress evidence for restart
recovery's crash-loop credit, and the record must not change any
recovery decision. It is called from restart recovery, the
dead-controller result-lease release, native retirement, and remote
warm-session recovery.
- New `native-controller-host-recovery.ts`:
- `requestNativeControllerStopConfirmation` (board-owned
`native_controller_host_unverified` recovery action, idempotent, never
displaces another active action).
- `confirmNativeControllerStopped`. It verifies the exact recorded
controller and stamps `operator_attested` with compare-and-set. It then
resolves the action, wakes live-run recovery, and logs
`issue.native_controller_stop_confirmed`.
- Route `POST /issues/:id/recovery-actions/confirm-controller-stopped`.
It is board-only and requires `runtime:confirm_owner_stop`. Generic
`restored`/`false_positive` resolution of this cause is refused. A
shared `confirmNativeControllerStoppedSchema` validates the body.
- UI: `WorkspaceExportRecovery` reuses the "Confirm the previous server
stopped" control for this cause, and the generic recovery card hides it.
Adds the `issuesApi.confirmControllerStopped` client call.
- `recovery/service.ts` orphan reaper: a null `process_host_hash` is
judged only when not ephemeral. A successful use records the entry
best-effort, after the terminal write. On an ephemeral server the run is
left to its existing Stop control.
- `ephemeralServerEnabled` moves to a leaf `ephemeral-server-mode.ts`
(re-exported by `ephemeral-server-contract.ts`). Importing the contract
module from recovery code created an import cycle in the runner child
process.
- The new route is registered in OpenAPI.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: documents the host rule and the
one-release sunset.

## Verification

- `native-restart-recovery.test.ts`: null host on a single-host server
is released with the flag. Null host on an ephemeral server is
unprovable. A mismatched host is unprovable in both modes. An attested
controller is accepted. Receipt owners are unchanged.
- New `native-controller-host-recovery.test.ts` (embedded Postgres):
  - The fallback writes the activity-log entry and no run event.
  - Ephemeral mode creates exactly one board action.
  - A wrong run id is refused.
- Confirmation stamps the attestation, after which takeover is allowed.
The action resolves and the activity is logged. A second confirmation is
refused.
- `recovery-stale-issue-lock-sweep.test.ts`: on a single-host server a
null host is terminalized and records one event. On an ephemeral server
it is left alone with no event. The existing audit-failure case still
clears the lock.
- `WorkspaceExportRecovery.control.test.tsx`: the controller
confirmation posts to `confirmControllerStopped` and never to the
copyback endpoint.
- Locally: these suites plus `remote-warm-session-recovery`,
`native-controller-recovery.integration` and
`native-startup-cleanup-recovery` (136 passed), and after the CI fixes
`native-runner-restart-preparation` and `native-runner-restart-recovery`
integration, `openapi-routes` and the suites above (256 passed); the UI
recovery suites (52 passed); `node scripts/typecheck-layers.mjs` with no
errors in the touched files; `pnpm check:token-gates` clean.

## Risks

- Previous-release story: no schema change. Null-host rows saved by
earlier releases recover as before on single-host servers, now with an
event, and wait for the board on ephemeral servers. The next release
removes the fallback; the event count shows whether any rows remain.
- On an ephemeral server, a null-host orphaned run process is not reaped
automatically. The operator uses Stop. That is the intended "unprovable"
outcome.
- A board confirmation is an attestation. It applies only to the exact
recorded controller (boot id + pid) and only while the host is still
unrecorded.

DottaandPaperclip 5a70999306 Add a versioned online workspace migration command (#19882)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip preserves the files and recovery state produced by its
agents.
> - Canonical online migration can preserve selected local workspaces
while unrelated work continues.
> - Operators sometimes need a newer migration owner before the serving
web process can take that release.
> - The existing packaged maintenance entry requires stopped writers.
> - This pull request adds a finite online entry from one coherent
reviewed release tree.
> - The entry delegates capture and publication to the existing owners
and keeps tool and serving identities separate.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19854, #19855 and #19872. The duplicate search found related owner
fixes and no separate versioned online entry.

**What happened?**

The finite online workspace importer was available as a library in the
serving image. The packaged all-phase migration entry required
maintenance mode.

**Expected behavior**

Run the reviewed online owner from a separate complete release tree
without replacing the web process, stopping unrelated work or changing
its release policy.

**Deployment mode**

A managed instance with its original local volume, database, existing
encryption key and shared S3 storage.

## What Changed

- Add strict inspect, single, cohort and exact single-journal resume
requests with explicit company, workspace, deadline and concurrency
bounds.
- Verify the private tool root and its own build stamp separately from
the serving source commit and deployment.
- Reuse the nonmutating full migration-manifest inspector and require
the additive controller host-identity column before publication.
- Hydrate existing configuration and key bindings, then use the original
ESM database pool and canonical storage, source locks and migration
owners.
- Keep multi-member inspection with the optional canonical cohort
preflight in a read-only transaction with denied storage. Releases
without that owner refuse cohort operations; single import and resume
remain available.
- Register the optional runtime bundle entry and document the supported
full-tree source mode, resource admission and reconciliation.
- Add hash-bound old-writer/reader compatibility and encrypted restore
tests.

## Verification

Final local revision: `c9345b72f27aee1158047dccd0b1060f9a0be6df`, on
master `fbe689938c3bf8c5849d2cd56b9da90029db9389`, macOS arm64 with Node
24.22.2.

- Entry and runtime packaging: **34/34 PASS**.
- Real PostgreSQL/filesystem compatibility: **6/6 PASS**, disposable
database wrapper exit 0 and cleanup complete. The frozen old source lock
owner contends with the new entry; unrelated work proceeds. The old
authority and snapshot readers decrypt and restore newly published
bytes.
- Pending and uploaded journal cases use the unchanged old persisted
format and preserve operation/snapshot IDs through resume.
- Full layered server source and test typecheck: **PASS**.
- Module boundaries and `git diff --check`: **PASS**.
- Actual source-mode module import under Node 24 succeeds without
starting the application.
- A separate temporary full-old-producer fixture did not get past module
setup: 90 seconds under Vitest and a 15-second direct Node control.
Neither is counted as an executed old-producer test or a product
failure. The smaller frozen old-writer/reader proof and old-format
journal cases are the local evidence.
- Hosted resume of the actual saved operation and Linux artifact
qualification remain operational acceptance gates. This PR does not
claim those ran.
- Review regression: a real successful import returned a null operation
ID (genuine RED). The repaired entry binds the exact returned snapshot
to its succeeded migration journal after commit (GREEN). Committed or
superseded snapshots are accepted; a missing readback requires
reconciliation rather than a blind retry.
- Final affected check: **40/40 PASS** across the entry, packaging and
actual PostgreSQL compatibility suites; wrapper exit 0 and cleanup
complete. Full layered typecheck and boundaries pass after the
user-requested rebase and current Runner rebuild.
- A second real postcommit database-read fault also has genuine
RED/GREEN proof. The succeeded journal, saved authority and original
bytes remain intact, and every readback error now preserves the
reconcile-required warning.
- Final-head [CI run
42404116001](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42404116001):
**PASS**, with all 59 check contexts terminal (55 success and 4
intentional skips). Fresh Greptile review is **5/5** on
`c9345b72f27aee1158047dccd0b1060f9a0be6df`, with no unresolved threads;
check and thread pagination are complete.

## Risks

- The tool must come from one authenticated complete release tree with
its own dependencies. A copied bundle chunk can retain old absolute
paths and is not a portable release.
- Concurrency is not resource admission. The operator must check memory,
CPU and scratch headroom and start with one import or two cohort
members.
- Schema must be prepared by the existing schema owner. This entry never
applies DDL.
- Cancellation awaits the canonical owner. An SSH interruption does not
prove the process stopped; durable journals must be reconciled before
retry.
- The entry preserves remote obligations and source files. It does not
prove enrollment readiness or zero-downtime operation.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools and code
execution. The exact serving snapshot and context-window size are not
exposed to this agent.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 5a20fca9f7 fix(recovery): judge an orphaned run's pid only in the PID space that recorded it (#19871)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The orphan reaper (`terminalizeOrphanedRunningRun`) ends a `running`
run whose recorded process is gone
> - It judged "gone" with `kill(pid, 0)` on the local host, wherever the
process actually ran: another host, another PID namespace, or a sandbox
> - So a run whose process is alive elsewhere could be terminalized
while it still works
> - #19868 fixed the same gap for native coordinator takeover and the
runtime-control sweep. This pull request finishes finding 2 for the
reaper
> - The benefit is that a dead local pid never proves an owner on
another host is gone

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Bug description**
The Phase 0 ownership inventory (finding 2) names the orphan reaper
`terminalizeOrphanedRunningRun` (`recovery/service.ts`) as a proof that
accepts "the pid is dead here" for a process anywhere. `heartbeat_runs`
recorded `process_pid` with no PID space, and a sandbox pid could
collide with a local one.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. A run records `process_pid` on host A, or in a sandbox.
2. On host B, that pid number is not alive.
3. B's stale-lock sweep terminalizes the run as `orphaned_running_run`.

**Expected behavior**
The process-death authority applies only in the PID space that recorded
the pid. Issue-terminal authority is unchanged.

Refs #19846, follows #19868

## What Changed

- Migration `0442`: add nullable `heartbeat_runs.process_host_hash`.
- `heartbeat/run-lifecycle.ts` `persistHeartbeatRunProcessMetadata`, the
one writer of `process_pid`, stores `currentProcessSpaceHash()` for a
local pid and `"remote"` for a sandbox pid.
- `recovery/service.ts`: the process-death authority runs only when
`process_host_hash` is null (rows saved before this column, for one
release) or `sameProcessSpace` matches.
- Tests: the reaper leaves a dead pid alone for another host, a sandbox,
and an unreadable space, and terminalizes it in this space. The writer
stamps local and remote pids.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run
src/__tests__/recovery-stale-issue-lock-sweep.test.ts`: 46 passed.
- Red before the fix: with the old `recovery/service.ts`, the three
cross-space cases fail (the run is terminalized). Green after.
- `pnpm db:generate` produced `0442_low_salo.sql` (one `ADD COLUMN`),
and the snapshot set was pruned to five. `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db
check:migrations` passed. Server `tsc --noEmit` shows no errors in the
changed files.

## Risks

- Previous-release story: runs saved with `process_host_hash = null`
keep the previous local proof for this release. That matches #19868,
because stranding in-flight runs at upgrade would be a restart failure.
New rows are strict.
- A run whose process really lived on another host now stays `running`
until issue-terminal authority, its controller lease, or another owner
settles it.
- No new I/O before `turn.start`. The hash is computed at module load,
and the stamp rides the existing process-metadata update.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 00ad9503fe feat(commentary): agents read only their own commentary unless granted commentary:view (#19842)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents can submit complaints and suggestions as commentary, and
people with commentary access read them on the Commentary page
> - When a person asks an agent in chat what agents have been
complaining about, the agent cannot read commentary and gets "Board
access required"
> - That response does not say where a person can see it, so the agent
can name the feed but cannot link it
> - Product rule: an agent cannot read other agents' commentary unless
it holds `commentary:view`, which is off by default; it may read its own
> - This pull request implements that rule and adds a remediation to the
denial naming the human page for the agent's own company
> - The benefit is a clear permission boundary and a working link for
the person instead of a dead end

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In the `activity.agent-feedback` chat eval, the agent correctly said it
could not read agent commentary and that only the person could open it,
but it gave no link, because the denial named no page.

**Expected behavior**
An agent denied a commentary read learns which page a person with
commentary access can open.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. As an agent, call `GET /api/companies/{companyId}/agent-commentary`.
2. Before this change, the 403 body is only `{ "error": "Board access
required" }`.

## What Changed

- `server/src/routes/agent-commentary.ts`:
- An agent with the `commentary:view` grant reads all commentary its
task access allows. The grant is not among the default agent grants.
- Without the grant, an agent may read its own entries: `?agentId=<its
own id>` on the list, or its own entry by ID.
- Without the grant, listing all commentary, filtering by another agent,
or reading another agent's entry returns 403 "Board access required".
The response's `remediation` names `/<issuePrefix>/activity/commentary`
for the agent's own company.
- A request for another company still fails on company access first,
with no page path.
- Board reads are unchanged: `commentary:view` for the user, plus task
read conditions.
- `agent-commentary.integration.test.ts`: one test covers the full-list
and other-agent denials with the page path, own-list and own-entry
reads, the cross-company denial, the grant allowing a full list, and
that `commentary:view` is not a default agent grant.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/agent-commentary.integration.test.ts` in
`server`: 21 tests passed.
- The new test fails against the previous route.
- Negative control: with the previous route, the new test fails.
- Related commentary tests: `agent-commentary-reader`,
`agent-commentary-helper`, `commentary-permission-migration` passed.
`agent-commentary-skills` fails the same way with and without this
change (a missing skill file in a temporary directory locally).
- The chat eval rerun with this change is recorded in #19614.

## Risks

- Agents can now read their own commentary when they ask for it
explicitly; before, every agent read was denied.
- The denial's status code and message are unchanged; a `remediation`
string is added for same-company agents.
- There is no UI yet for granting `commentary:view` to an agent.
- An agent learns the company's issue prefix, which it already sees in
task identifiers.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 05e3309740 fix(accounting): settle a failed usage capture as unpriced at the closure bound (#19857)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Every finished run settles its usage into the cost ledger. Until it
settles, budget admission makes new company work wait
> - When usage capture fails (`accountingCaptureFailed=true`),
accounting skips the run forever. It is also not "recovering", so it
counts in `waitingRunCount`
> - So one failed capture holds new company work until the UTC budget
month rolls over
> - This pull request bounds that wait with the existing accounting
closure timeout. It then settles the run's known usage as unpriced, with
provenance that names the capture failure
> - The benefit is that admission recovers by itself, while unknown
spend stays visible and still counts under a blocking unpriced-usage
policy

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Bug description**
The Phase 0 ownership inventory (finding 3) found that runs with
`accountingCaptureFailed=true` are excluded from accounting
(`run-cost-accounting.ts` `actionableRunAccounting` and
`accountRunCost`). They are also excluded from "recovering" in
`budget-exposure.ts`, so they count as waiting until the month window
rolls over. Nothing else releases them.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Finish a run whose usage capture failed (for example, a fence write
failure or usage after a source handoff).
2. Wait any length of time and run `reconcileRunCosts`.
3. The run stays `costAccountingPending`, and `getInvocationBlock` keeps
holding new company work.

**Expected behavior**
After a bounded wait, the run settles with its known usage marked
unpriced, and held work resumes. A blocking unpriced-usage policy still
treats the run as unknown spend.

Refs #19846

## What Changed

- `run-cost-accounting.ts`: new `captureFailureBoundPassed`. It applies
to a terminal capture-failed run whose native coordinator (if any)
settled, after `ACCOUNTING_CLOSURE_TIMEOUT_MS`. This is the same bound
used for missing closure evidence.
- `actionableRunAccounting` selects these runs, and
`readCostAccountingWork` schedules a wake at their bound. A past bound
never schedules a wake, as before.
- `accountRunCost`: a capture-failed run is never treated as
pre-provider work. Before the bound it stays pending. After the bound it
settles through the existing lost-receipt path as `receiptUnavailable` +
`closureTimedOut`: known cost becomes a lower-bound estimate, otherwise
the charge is unpriced, and the run gets `accountingClosureTimedOut:
true`.
- Provenance evidence and the `cost.accounting_closure_timed_out`
activity say that the usage capture failed (`details.captureFailed:
true`).
- Tests: three new cases in `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`.
`cost-data-quality.test.ts` now pins both sides of the bound for a board
retry.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run
src/__tests__/closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`: 54 passed.
- `npx vitest run src/services/run-cost-accounting.test.ts
src/__tests__/idle-accounting-work.test.ts
src/__tests__/cost-data-quality.test.ts`: 40 passed.
- Red before the fix: with the old `run-cost-accounting.ts`, all 3 new
capture-failure cases fail. The run never settles, nothing schedules a
wake, and work stays held. Green after.
- Hard stop: "keeps a settled capture failure under the blocking
unpriced-usage policy" shows that a blocking policy still blocks after
settlement. Real observed spend (`budgetExposure`) counts toward the
hard stop before and after.
- Server `tsc --noEmit` shows no errors in the changed files.

## Risks

- Behavior change: capture-failed runs no longer stay pending forever.
The 2026-10-28 Cursor runner plan recorded "capture failures remain
pending" as an interim rule. This PR keeps them pending through the
closure bound and then settles them as unknown spend, never as free. A
complete receipt that arrives later still reconciles through
late-receipt handling.
- A board retry of a capture-failed run past the bound now settles it.
Before the bound it is still refused.
- Previous-release story: no persisted shape changes. Existing
capture-failed rows past the bound settle on the next reconcile pass.
That can release work that was held, and under a blocking policy it
records unknown spend that blocks.
- No new waits or I/O before `turn.start`. This is background accounting
only.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 51c352ec2e fix(skills): release a runtime skill-cache lock whose holder provably exited (#19849)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Before a run starts, the server builds a read-only cache of each
company skill under a cross-process file lock
> - The lock records only a pid and a hostname, so a crash leaves a lock
that nothing can release
> - If the holder pid is dead on the same host, the next run fails and
asks for manual cleanup. If the host name differs, the next run waits 60
s and then fails
> - This is on the turn path, so one crash during a skill build breaks
later runs that use that skill
> - This pull request records the shared controller process identity in
the lock and releases the lock at once when `controllerProcessExited`
proves the holder is gone
> - The benefit is that a crash during a skill build no longer blocks
later runs, and the release never relies on lock age or another host

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Bug description**
The Phase 0 ownership inventory (finding 4) lists the runtime
skill-cache lock (`runtime-skill-cache.ts`) as a record that nothing
releases automatically. When a publisher crashes while it holds
`<skillId>.lock`, every later preparation of that skill fails.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a skill cache build, then kill the server process while it
holds the lock.
2. Restart and start a run that uses the same skill.
3. Preparation fails with "Runtime skill cache publisher exited; remove
its stale publication lock before retrying". For a holder whose host
name differs, it fails after 60 s with "publisher is busy".

**Expected behavior**
A lock whose holder has provably exited is released, and the build
continues without waiting. A holder that cannot be proven gone is still
waited for.

Refs #19846

## What Changed

- `controller-process-identity.ts`: add
`currentControllerProcessStamp()`. It returns this process's identity
with no I/O, so the turn path gets no new wait.
- `runtime-skill-cache.ts`: the lock owner file now also stores
`controller` (boot id, pid, PID-space hash, start time if already
known). `pid` and `host` stay so older readers still work.
- New `runtimeSkillCacheLockHolderExited`: true only when
`controllerProcessExited` proves the holder gone. Another host or PID
namespace, an unknown space, a legacy lock without `controller`, a live
pid, and this process all return false.
- On proof, waiters race for one exclusive claim named by the stale
holder's unique token (`<lock>.released-<token>`). Only the winner
unlinks the lock, and only while it still has the stale inode. The claim
is kept, so a late waiter does nothing. The waiter then retries the link
right away instead of after the 20 ms poll.
- A live holder is re-proved at most once a second.
`controllerProcessExited` skips the start-time probe (`ps` on macOS)
when no start time was recorded.
- The busy error now names the lock path. The same-host "publisher
exited" hard failure is removed.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/runtime-skill-cache.test.ts
src/services/controller-process-identity.test.ts`: 28 passed, rebased on
master after #19848.
- New case "takes over a release claim whose claimer exited before
removing the stale lock" covers the second Greptile finding.
- New case "never removes a newer lock for a waiter that read a stale
one late" covers the Greptile P1.
- New case "releases a publication lock at once when its holder provably
exited". On the old code it fails with "Runtime skill cache publisher
exited; remove its stale publication lock before retrying". On the new
code it builds in well under 5 s and leaves no lock.
- New case "never treats age, another host, or a legacy holder as
proof": a different host hash, a legacy `{pid, host}` lock, a live pid,
this process, and malformed content all stay held.
- Server `tsc --noEmit` shows no errors in the changed files.

## Risks

- Previous-release story: a lock written by the previous release has no
`controller` field. It is unprovable. The waiter waits 60 s and fails as
before, and the error now names the path to remove. A new lock still
carries `pid` and `host`, so a previous-release reader behaves as
before.
- Lock release race: while a stale lock exists, only the single claim
winner can remove it, and the inode check cannot match a newer lock
because the stale holder's owner file stays and pins that inode. A claim
whose claimer crashed is itself released by the same proof (depth
bounded at 2).
- Each released lock leaves one small claim file and the dead holder's
owner file next to it.
- No new I/O before `turn.start`. The stamp is synchronous. The proof
runs only when the lock is contended.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 738058553f fix(recovery): resume a continuation that never launched its runner in its own sandbox (#19850)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A chat follow-up on a remote native task runs as a continuation: it
starts from its predecessor's saved provider session and, for a warm
session, copies the predecessor's runner process identity onto the new
run
> - When the continuation fails before it asks for a runner of its own,
its due same-run retry sees a recorded process identity and reattaches
to "this run's" runner. That runner never existed, so reattachment
always fails with `native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch` and the task
is blocked
> - On staging, 34 OpenCode runs on 31 tasks failed this way in one
evening. Each first attempt failed while staging its provider pack,
recorded no runner start, and kept its own sandbox lease active
> - This pull request proves that shape from durable state, retires the
inherited identity, and resumes the run the way its failed attempt ran,
in its own retained sandbox
> - The benefit is that these retries recover automatically, without a
second sandbox and without the unsaved-work hold, while every run that
may hold its own provider work keeps verified reattachment

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19839, Refs #19399, Refs #19755, Refs #19779, Refs #19827

**What happened?**
A remote OpenCode chat continuation failed during provider-pack staging.
The run had no runner start event, no process identity event, no
controller checkpoint, and no provider event of its own. Its saved
session (no active turn, no pending request) and its process identity
were inherited from the previous run. Its failure detail recorded
`providerEventsExist: false`, and its own sandbox lease stayed active.
The due same-run retry chose `reattach_remote_runner` because a process
identity was recorded. Reattachment failed with
`native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch`, and the run ended in
`native_continuation_requires_reconciliation`.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Continue a warm remote native session so the new run inherits the
predecessor's runner process identity and saved session.
2. Fail the new run with a retryable error before it requests a runner
(for example during provider-pack staging).
3. Let the same-run retry become due. Recovery requests
`reattach_remote_runner`, and reattachment fails.

**Expected behavior**
The retry resumes the run the way its failed attempt ran, in the same
sandbox, and continues the inherited provider session. A run with any
provider work, runner start, or controller checkpoint of its own keeps
verified reattachment.

## What Changed

- New
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-inherited-runner-retry.ts`:
- `retireInheritedRemoteRunnerIdentity` locks the issue, the
coordinator, then the run (the same order as same-run resumption). It
retires the recorded process identity only when all of these hold: the
coordinator is a result-less, unowned `exact_checkpoint_resume` retry
with `providerEventsExist: false`; the run has no runner start, process
identity, adapter invocation, tool start, runner event, controller
checkpoint, provider event or provider session of its own; the saved
session has no active turn and no pending runtime request; and a settled
predecessor of the same native session recorded the exact same process
identity (PID, group, start time).
- It records `nativeInheritedRunnerRetirement` on the run profile, with
the run's own sandbox location when that lease is still active, and an
`inherited_runner_never_launched` lifecycle event.
- `readInheritedRunnerRetainedSandbox` returns that sandbox only while
it still matches the run's saved remote location.
- `heartbeat/recovery.ts`: a due remote retry calls the retirement
first. It returns `retired`, `not_applicable` or `transient`. A retired
run (including one a concurrent sweep already retired) goes to the
ordinary same-run resume (`claimNativeSessionResumptions`), with every
existing admission gate. A lock timeout or database error is
`transient`: the sweep defers the run and checks again, and never falls
back to reattachment. Any other run keeps verified reattachment.
- `heartbeat/workspace-preparation.ts`: an ordinary same-run resume with
a retired inherited runner acquires its retained sandbox through the
existing exact-lease path (`reattachRemoteLease`), which validates and
resumes that lease and never acquires a replacement. It acquires as an
ordinary resume does only when the exact-lease failure proves the
sandbox is unusable (`stage=environment_acquire|environment_resume`,
`field=lease|lease_status|lease_expired|provider_lease_id`). Any other
failure, such as a scope mismatch on a live lease, is kept and acquires
nothing.
- New `server/src/services/retained-sandbox-absent-error.ts`: a sandbox
provider's resume reply with no provider lease and `expired: true` (the
reply Daytona and other providers send when the sandbox is gone) now
throws `RetainedSandboxAbsentError`. Every other mismatched reply keeps
the existing error. The exact-lease reattachment in
`environment-run-orchestrator.ts` maps it to
`native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch: stage=environment_resume
field=lease_expired`, so the same-run resume above acquires as an
ordinary resume when the provider has removed the retained sandbox. A
transient resume failure is not treated as absence and never acquires
another sandbox.
- `native-restart-recovery.ts` exports the existing
`hasNativeExecutionStartEvidence` so both paths use one definition of
"execution reached a runner".
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` documents the rule.

## Previous-release state

- No schema change. The new profile field is additive.
- A run saved by an older release without `providerEventsExist`, without
a native session ID, or without a matching predecessor keeps verified
reattachment. That path is unchanged. When it loses its runner, it still
requests the user's Retry once (#19399).
- A run that an older release left with its own runner start, controller
checkpoint or provider event keeps verified reattachment, because its
outcome may be ambiguous.
- A profile without the new marker never changes acquisition.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run server/src/services/heartbeat/recovery.test.ts -t
"never launched its own runner|keeps verified reattachment"` (embedded
PostgreSQL):
- Staging shape (inherited session and process identity, no runner start
of its own, saved remote workspace, active own lease, recorded PID).
Before the fix: fails, because recovery requested reattachment. After
the fix: passes. The PID fields are cleared, the marker names the
predecessor and the retained lease, `executeRun` is called once with a
plain `nativeLeaseOwner` claim, the run still has exactly one (active)
lease, and no process is signalled.
- Negatives, passing before and after: a provider turn of its own, a
runner start of its own, a controller checkpoint of its own, no matching
predecessor, a pending runtime request in the saved session, and a
failure detail without `providerEventsExist`. Each keeps verified
reattachment and gets no marker.
- `npx vitest run
server/src/services/heartbeat/workspace-preparation.test.ts -t "retained
sandbox|retired inherited"`:
- A retired inherited runner acquires its retained sandbox with
`reattachRemoteLease`. Before: fails. After: passes.
- When the retained sandbox is gone, it acquires as an ordinary resume.
Before: fails. After: passes.
- Without the marker, acquisition is unchanged (passes before and
after).
- A `nativeWorkspaceSync` reference also resumes its retained sandbox. A
live lease's `lease_scope` failure is kept and acquires nothing.
- `recovery.test.ts` also covers a second retirement call (returns
`retired`, one event) and a held issue lock (defers; no reattachment, no
dispatch, PID kept).
- `environment-runtime.test.ts`: on exact resume, only a provider reply
with no lease and `expired: true` (with or without a workspace sentinel
mismatch) is `RetainedSandboxAbsentError`; a different lease or a reply
without `expired` keeps the existing error.
`environment-run-orchestrator.test.ts`: confirmed absence becomes
`stage=environment_resume field=lease_expired` and acquires nothing.
- Affected suites pass locally: `recovery.test.ts`,
`workspace-preparation.test.ts`,
`heartbeat-native-remote-failure-retention.test.ts`,
`workspace-recovery-retry-copyback.test.ts`,
`native-runner-restart-recovery.integration.test.ts`. `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck` passes.

## Risks

- **No second executor.** The rule applies only when this run never
requested a runner, so no runner of this run exists. The predecessor
must be settled, and its identity is matched exactly. The resume then
takes the normal same-run claim, which holds the issue lock and
admission gates.
- **No repeated side effects.** The run has no provider event, turn or
tool start of its own. A saved session with a pending runtime request or
an active turn keeps verified reattachment. The resumed provider session
goes through the existing provider recovery, which refuses a pending
side-effecting call with a permanent, named code.
- **Bounded.** The retirement takes effect once per run, because
afterwards the run has no recorded identity. A contended retirement
waits for the next sweep. Further failures use the existing
three-attempt provider budget.
- I did not run a live Daytona sandbox, or a full preparation through a
real sandbox plugin, through this path. The orchestrator's exact-lease
checks are covered by its own unit tests. The evidence is recovery and
preparation tests on a real database with the staging run shape.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 68db7ed9e3 fix(recovery): never accept a dead local pid as proof for an owner on another host (#19868)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - After a restart, recovery decides that an in-progress record's owner
is gone and takes it over
> - Two of those proofs use `kill(pid, 0)` on the local host. A pid that
is dead here says nothing about a process on another host or in another
PID namespace
> - So a controller or runtime-control owner that is still alive
elsewhere can be taken over while it still runs
> - This pull request records the owner's PID space (the existing
`controller-process-identity` host hash) and judges a pid only in that
same space
> - The benefit is that a different host is never proof. Those records
follow their existing lease or TTL instead

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Bug description**
The Phase 0 ownership inventory (finding 2) found three proofs that
accept "the pid is dead here" as proof for an owner on another host:
`evaluateNativeControllerTakeover` (`native_run_finalizations` has no
host column), the runtime-control sweep (`workspace-operations.ts`), and
the orphan reaper `terminalizeOrphanedRunningRun`. Only
`controllerProcessExited` checked the host.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Run two control-plane processes on different hosts, or in different
PID namespaces, against one database.
2. Let host A own a native finalization lease or a runtime-control
operation.
3. On host B, run restart recovery. If A's pid number is not alive on B,
B takes over the live owner.

**Expected behavior**
An owner whose PID space differs from this process's, or cannot be read,
is unprovable. Its record waits for its lease, fence, or TTL.

Refs #19846

## What Changed

- Migration `0441`: add nullable
`native_run_finalizations.controller_host_hash`.
- `controller-process-identity.ts`: export `currentProcessSpaceHash()`
and `sameProcessSpace()`. An unreadable space is stored as `"unknown"`,
which never matches.
- `native-restart-recovery.ts`: `currentNativeControllerIdentity`
carries `hostHash`, which both coordinator claim writes
(`native-restart-recovery.ts`, `native-session-executor.ts`) store.
`evaluateNativeControllerTakeover` returns `controller_host_unprovable`
before any pid probe when the recorded space is not this one.
`native-dead-controller-result-lease.ts` selects the column.
- `workspace-operations.ts`: runtime-control owner stamps record
`hostHash`. `ownerProcessProvenGone` requires the same PID space (EPERM
= alive), otherwise the existing staleness TTL applies.
- Not in this PR: the orphan reaper `terminalizeOrphanedRunningRun`.
`heartbeat_runs` has no host for `process_pid`, and its writers are
spread across legacy and native paths. It follows as a separate PR with
its own column.

## Verification

- `npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-restart-recovery.test.ts
src/__tests__/workspace-runtime-control-recovery.test.ts`: 55 passed.
New cases cover another host and an unreadable space (dead and recycled
pid) for takeover, plus another host, unreadable space, and legacy stamp
for the sweep. The sweep cases also confirm that the TTL still reclaims
after the heartbeat lapses.
- Red before the fix: the 5 new cases fail on the old code. Green after.
- `native-controller-recovery.integration.test.ts`,
`native-failed-run-owner-release.test.ts`,
`native-startup-cleanup-recovery.test.ts`: 71 passed.
- `pnpm db:generate` produced `0441_lucky_chameleon.sql` (one `ADD
COLUMN`) and pruned to five snapshots. `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db
check:migrations` passed. Server `tsc --noEmit` shows no errors in the
changed files.

## Risks

- Previous-release story: `native_run_finalizations` rows saved before
this column have `controller_host_hash = null`. They keep the previous
local dead-pid proof for this release. Making them unprovable would
leave every native run in flight at the upgrade in `awaiting_evidence`
with no TTL, because local takeovers have no lease fallback. Rows
written by this release onward are strict. Runtime-control stamps
without `hostHash` are strict now, because that path has a staleness
TTL.
- Owners built from other receipts (workspace finalization owner,
workspace stop proof) pass no host and keep the previous behavior. Track
2's shared `OwnerStamp` should absorb them.
- A new row on a host that really moved (redeploy onto a new machine)
waits for its lease or an operator instead of being taken over by pid.
That is the intended "different host is never proof" rule.
- No new I/O before `turn.start`. The hash is computed once at module
load.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 a9ac2e2039 feat(native): split local runner startup into stage, launch and session-load spans (#19852)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - When a person messages an agent, the agent must start its turn fast.
Time to first token (TTFT) and agent boot are first-class metrics.
> - The Phase 0 baseline (#19846) found that local runner startup costs
1.6–17 s at p50 and up to 50 s at p95. It is the largest part of TTFT.
> - The run log records that startup as one span
(`runner.session.bootstrap` or `runner.session.resume`). We cannot see
if the time goes to staging, to the `paperclip-runnerd` process launch,
or to the provider session load.
> - This pull request splits local runner startup into three sub-spans
in the run log.
> - The benefit: the follow-up work to cut follow-up-turn TTFT can
measure each step before and after.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19846 (TTFT baseline, finding 1 and gap "No sub-spans exist inside
local runner startup"). Refs #19838.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**
The run-log performance spans for local native runner startup.

**Current behavior**
The local path records one `runner.session.bootstrap` or
`runner.session.resume` span that covers runtime staging, the runner
process launch and the provider handshake together. The remote path
already records `runner.runtime.stage` and `runner.process.launch`; the
local path does not.

**Proposed behavior**
The local path records three sequential child spans of
`runner.session.startup`: `runner.runtime.stage`,
`runner.process.launch` and `provider.session.load`.

**Reason and benefit**
The TTFT work needs to know which step dominates before it changes the
runner lifecycle. Without these spans, a change to warm runner reuse
cannot show which cost it removes.

## What Changed

- `RunnerdCodexTransport` has a new optional `onStartupStep` callback.
`#start` and `#resume` time three milestones and call it synchronously.
A failing callback never changes startup. A nested startup (exact
adoption from `thread/start`) keeps the outer clock.
- `runner.runtime.stage`: launch preparation before the runner process
exists.
- `runner.process.launch`: spawn until runnerd accepts the run
(`run.prepare`, or the recovery attachment on resume). An adopted live
runner records no launch. This keeps the existing meaning in
`summarizeStartupReuse`: a launch span means a fresh runner.
- `provider.session.load`: `session.open` (or the recovery probe) until
the provider identity is confirmed.
- `recordNativeRunnerStartupStep` (`native-run-trace.ts`) records each
step as a `run.performance.span` row with `mode` and `target: "local"`.
It uses `trace.defer`, so the run-log write never delays `turn.start`.
- The native executor passes the callback only for a local target.
Remote launchers keep their own spans, so there are no duplicates.
- `redaction.ts`: allowlist `runner.process.launch` and
`provider.session.load` as native span names.
- `doc/run-log-events.md`: new section "Local runner startup sub-steps".

Data path (AGENTS.md §5.7): run log only, plus Observability spans when
an operator sets an OTLP endpoint. The attributes (`mode`, `target`,
`outcome`) are already in the closed span-attribute allowlist. No
Telemetry change.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner exec vitest run
src/live/runnerd-codex-transport-startup-steps.test.ts`: a real runnerd
and the fake Codex fixture. Bootstrap and a cold resume each report
stage, launch and session load in order, with `ok` outcomes and no
overlap. A throwing sink does not change startup.
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/native-run-trace.test.ts
src/__tests__/redaction.test.ts`: the rows have the correct parent,
offsets, durations and failed level. A stalled run-log sink does not
block the caller. The rows settle before
`task.provider_session.measured`. The names survive redaction.
- The existing `runnerd-codex-transport*` suites pass (412 tests). Under
host load (load average 16–27), the first full run had 7 timing failures
in suites that do not set the callback. Each failing file passed when I
ran it again alone. `runnerd-codex-transport-settlement` passed 3/3 for
the failing case alone.
- `tsc --noEmit` passes for `packages/paperclip-runner` and `server`.

## Risks

- Low risk. Without `onStartupStep`, the transport behaves as before:
the clock is not created and each milestone call is an optional-chain
no-op.
- More run-log rows: three per local runner startup.
- The step boundaries are controller-side observations.
`runner.process.launch` includes the runnerd authentication and the
`run.prepare` acknowledgement, not only the OS spawn.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 e7936fb1ad fix(heartbeat): gate process-loss retries on the shared failure budget (#19856)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - When a server restart loses a run's process, the orphan reaper
decides whether to retry the run
> - `doc/execution-semantics.md` says process loss uses the shared
durable failure retry counter, and `enqueueProcessLossRetry` already
schedules against that budget
> - The reaper still guards on `processLossRetryCount < 1`, but nothing
has written that column since the move to the shared budget, so the
guard does nothing
> - So an exhausted chain still says "retrying once" and skips the
interaction continuation path, and a legacy row with a non-zero counter
is refused a retry it is owed
> - This pull request replaces the dead guard with
`failedRunRetryBudgetSpent`, the budget that the retry actually spends
> - The benefit is one restart budget, read and written in one place,
with honest run messages

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Bug description**
The Phase 0 ownership inventory (finding 5) found that
`processLossRetryCount` has no writer and that its only reader is the
reaper guard at `heartbeat/recovery.ts:2675`. The guard always passes
for new rows. For rows written by earlier releases, it refuses a retry
even when the shared failure budget has room.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Seed a legacy run that a restart stopped before adapter dispatch.
Spend its whole failure retry budget
(`executionRetryAccounting.failureRetries = max`).
2. Run `reapOrphanedRuns()`.
3. The run fails with "Process lost -- server may have restarted;
retrying once", but no retry is scheduled.

**Expected behavior**
An exhausted budget gives no promise of a retry. A legacy counter value
does not block a retry that the shared budget allows.

Refs #19846

## What Changed

- `heartbeat/recovery.ts`: `shouldRetry` now checks
`!failedRunRetryBudgetSpent(run)` instead of `processLossRetryCount <
1`. When the budget is spent, the reaper falls through to
`scheduleInteractionContinuationInfrastructureRetryIfEligible`, which is
what the old guard intended.
- `packages/db/src/schema/heartbeat_runs.ts`: a comment marks
`process_loss_retry_count` as legacy. There is no schema or migration
change.
- Tests: the three cases that used `processLossRetryCount: 1` to mean
"retry already spent" now spend the real failure budget. Two new cases
cover a legacy counter (a retry is still scheduled) and a spent budget
(no "retrying once", `retryEligible: false`, no retry run).

## Verification

- `npx vitest run src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts -t
"process-loss|failure budget|bypass unknown process outcomes|immediate
terminal-run cleanup|paused-tree work|restart stopped before adapter
dispatch|reached adapter dispatch"`: 7 passed.
- Red before the fix: with the old `recovery.ts`, both new cases fail.
Green after.
- Server `tsc --noEmit` shows no errors in the changed files.
- The full `heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts` file (419 cases) stalled
locally at 0% CPU after about 15 minutes. That run was on a worktree
whose package builds were stale at first. I ran the focused subset
instead, and required CI runs the full file.

## Risks

- Low risk. The retry decision now follows the same budget that
`enqueueProcessLossRetry` already enforced. A run with budget left
behaves as before.
- Previous-release story: rows saved with `process_loss_retry_count > 0`
are no longer refused for that reason alone. The shared failure budget,
which earlier releases also wrote, bounds them. The column stays, so
earlier-release readers (`queue.ts` startup resume) keep working.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 84908d176b fix(recovery): name the failed check in native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch (#19839)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Remote native runs execute in a sandbox, and recovery can reattach a
run to its original sandbox runner
> - Reattachment checks the saved lease, workspace, and runner identity
in five places. Each failed check throws the same bare
`native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch`
> - On staging, 34 OpenCode runs on 31 tasks failed with this bare error
in one evening. The run records could not show which check failed, so
the cause could not be confirmed from the run alone
> - This pull request makes every producer name the failed step and
field with closed values
> - The benefit is that an operator and the next investigation can see
which reattachment check failed, without new logging or identifiers in
the error

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19399, Refs #19733, Refs #19755, Refs #19779

**What happened?**
Remote same-run retries failed with
`native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch` and the task was blocked for
reconciliation. The error is thrown by environment acquire, environment
resume, workspace preparation, workspace sync, and remote runner
verification. All of them used the same bare string. The run's `error`
field and its run events did not show which check failed.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start reattachment for a remote native run whose saved lease,
workspace reference, or runner identity no longer matches.
2. Read the run's `error`.
3. It shows only `native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch`.

**Expected behavior**
The error names the step and the field that differed, with no
identifiers, and existing consumers of the code keep working.

## What Changed

- New
`server/src/services/native-runtime/remote-recovery-lease-mismatch.ts`:
the code constant, a closed `stage` and `field` vocabulary, and
`remoteRecoveryLeaseMismatch(stage, field)`. It builds
`native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch: stage=<stage> field=<field>`.
- `environment-run-orchestrator.ts` (stages `environment_acquire` and
`environment_resume`), `heartbeat/workspace-preparation.ts`
(`workspace_preparation`), `native-workspace-sync.ts`
(`workspace_sync`), and `verifyRemoteRunnerReattachment` in
`native-session-executor.ts` (`runner_verification`) now throw the
detailed form. Each check keeps the same condition and order. Only the
message changes.
- `restart-interrupted-turn.ts` uses the shared constant. It already
matches the code exactly or as the `code: ` prefix, so automatic
continuation after a reattachment loss is unchanged. No other consumer
matches the code.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` documents the detail format.

## Previous-release state

This change adds no persisted state and changes no saved identity. Runs
that a previous release failed keep the bare
`native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch` in `error`. Runs failed by this
release store the detailed form. The only consumer (`isReattachmentLoss`
in `restart-interrupted-turn.ts`) accepts both forms, and
`workspace-recovery-retry-copyback.test.ts` covers both.

## Verification

- Exact-detail assertions in the producer tests:
- `server/src/__tests__/environment-run-orchestrator.test.ts`: every
scope, status, expiry, provider, lease-ID, cwd, plugin-task, and resume
case asserts its stage and field. Against the previous producer, 21 of
these cases fail (the message was the bare code). With this change, all
57 tests pass.
- `native-session-executor.test.ts`: a replaced sandbox reports
`runner_verification`/`provider_lease_id`. A missing durable runner
identity reports `identity_run_id` before any sandbox read.
- `native-workspace-sync.test.ts`,
`heartbeat/workspace-preparation.test.ts`,
`native-controller-recovery.integration.test.ts` assert their exact
detail.
- End to end on embedded PostgreSQL:
`heartbeat-native-remote-failure-retention.test.ts` records
`native_remote_recovery_lease_mismatch: stage=environment_resume
field=lease` on the run when the provider no longer resumes the lease,
and it still requests the user's Retry once.
`workspace-recovery-retry-copyback.test.ts` adds a detailed-form row
that still continues once.
- The affected server test files pass locally. `pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/server typecheck` passes.

## Risks

- Low risk. Only the error text changes. Conditions, ordering, and
fail-closed behavior are unchanged.
- Logs and run errors show a longer message. The detail has closed
values only, so it adds no identifiers or secrets.
- A first version of this PR also changed remote retry selection. Review
showed that a plain resume in a new sandbox hits the remote workspace's
unsaved-work hold, and that a `destroy` disposition does not prove the
old sandbox is gone. That change is removed. It needs a separate design.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (Anthropic), model ID `claude-opus-5-5`, run in Claude
Code with tool use (shell, file editing, read-only browser access to
staging).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 a94881d1a7 fix(heartbeat): save a comment refused by a temporary hold and route post-quarantine input to its own gate (#19829)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A user's follow-up comment or Retry must be delivered once,
eventually, even when a temporary company admission hold (accounting
still settling) is active
> - #19741 kept claimed runs queued through such a hold and woke held
work when it cleared
> - A restart-chaos wave still lost a comment, because its wake was
refused before admission and written as a terminal skip
> - The same wave left a Retry waiting forever for a stop record of a
process that never existed
> - This pull request saves the refused comment as a deferred receipt,
and routes input after a pre-launch quarantine failure to the
quarantine's own gate
> - The benefit is that the comment is delivered after the hold, and the
task asks for the action that actually unblocks it instead of offering a
Retry that can never start

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19741 and #19702.

**What happened?**
In a restart-chaos wave, a failed run's accounting held the company for
600 s.
1. A user commented while the task's run was live. The enqueue budget
gate refused the comment's wake before it reached the deferral behind
the live run. Because it was a user request with no saved receipt, it
was written as `skipped` (`budget.blocked`). The live run finished
without it and the task ended `done`, so the comment was lost.
2. A Retry created a run that the native cleanup-quarantine fence
refused before it requested any runner launch
(`native_session_cleanup_quarantined`, no process events). A second
Retry then waited with `process_identity_missing` ("The previous run has
no verified stop record") for a process that never existed. The task
kept offering Retry, and that Retry could never start.

**Expected behavior**
A comment refused by a temporary hold stays saved and is delivered once
later. Input after a run that was refused before launch is handled by
the quarantine gate: Retry is not offered (send a new message), and a
new message gets the verified-stop check of the previous provider
session.

## What Changed

- `heartbeat/queue.ts`: when the enqueue budget gate refuses a user's
comment wake and the block is temporary (not a reached hard stop, per
`isBoardOwnedBudgetBlock`), the wake is saved as a
`deferred_issue_execution` receipt. The receipt carries the comment ids
and an `executionWait` of `budget.blocked`, and the gate notifies the
deferred-receipt worker and throws `PersistedExecutionWaitRefusal`. It
is not written as `skipped`. Normal promotion (when the live run ends)
and #19741's hold-release wakeups deliver it.
- `native-local-process-stop.ts`: new `nativeRunRefusedBeforeLaunch`. It
returns true for a failed native run with
`native_session_cleanup_quarantined`, no recorded process, and no
launch-request or identity event.
- `explicit-native-continuation.ts`: such a run passes the
process-identity check, so the existing quarantine branch decides. A
Retry gets `cleanup_quarantined` (shown with `canRetry: false` and "send
a new message"). A new message gets
`verifyStoppedNativeSessionForContinuation`. Any launch request or
identity record keeps the original stop proofs.

- `native-session-executor.ts`
(`verifyStoppedNativeSessionForContinuation`): when the source has no
process record and no launch event, the verifier relies on the previous
owner's stop evidence. Before this change it required the source to
share the owner's process identity, so a new message stayed held even
after the owner stopped. A source that carries a process identity must
still match the owner exactly.

## Verification

Each new test fails on `master` and passes with this change, on embedded
Postgres:
- `server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-held-comment-wake.test.ts`: a comment
whose wake the hold refuses at enqueue is saved with a `budget.blocked`
wait and is not skipped. It is delivered exactly once after accounting
settles.
- `server/src/services/explicit-native-continuation.test.ts`:
- A run refused by the quarantine before launch routes a new message to
the quarantine's stop verification and a Retry to `cleanup_quarantined`.
These failed on `master` with `process_identity_missing`.
- Guards (green on both): a quarantined run that requested a launch, and
another failure without a process record, still require
`process_identity_missing`.
- `server/src/services/quarantined-task-retry.test.ts`: a never-launched
quarantined source is certified once the previous owner has stopped (red
on `master`). It stays held if the source requested a launch or the
owner is still running. All 31 tests pass, and the `stopped native
conversation physical cleanup` suite passes (46).
- Related suites pass locally (6 files, 620 tests): explicit native
continuation, held comment wake, queued comments routes, comment wake
batching, refused assignment wake, deferred receipt work. Two
`deferred-execution-receipt-work` tests failed once under parallel load
and passed when run alone.

## Risks

- The saved-comment path applies only to user comment wakes refused by a
temporary budget hold. Hard stops, system wakes, case handoffs, durable
chat requests, and existing saved receipts are unchanged.
- The pre-launch rule is limited to the quarantine failure code with no
launch evidence. Every other missing process identity still requires the
existing stop proof.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, run as an agent in
Claude Code with tool use (shell, file editing, local test execution,
kept restart-chaos instance inspection).

DottaandPaperclip 2e52dfa864 fix(slack): retain DM thread tasks after completion (#19486)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Slack conversations store that work in tasks and comments.
> - A native thread must keep its task when work finishes.
> - The server treated all DMs as linear conversations.
> - A reply in a completed DM thread therefore started a new task
without its earlier comments.
> - This pull request uses the native thread identity for task
continuity.
> - People can continue the same work with its saved context.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A reply in a Slack DM thread created a new task after the preceding task
was Done or Cancelled. It also created a new task when the saved
conversation was completed. The new task lacked earlier comments.

**Expected behavior**

A native Slack thread keeps one task in channels and DMs. Later replies
retain earlier user and agent comments. Top-level DMs keep their
existing task generation rules.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start work in a Slack DM thread.
2. Mark its task Done.
3. Reply in the same thread.
4. Before this fix, the reply creates another task.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced from master at eb5c24b61c.

**Deployment mode**

Built from source. Tests use local PostgreSQL and provider fixtures.

Related PR: #16151 covers the DM mention exemption. This fix preserves
that behavior. GitHub searches found no duplicate fix for completion
routing.

## What Changed

- Detect Slack native thread roots in the Slack module.
- Classify native DM threads as persistent threads for task routing.
- Select the resource type from the actual DM destination. Keep DM
access checks.
- Preserve DM task controls. Select the latest DM task even after
completion. Require a delivered control receipt before an explicit new
task generation.
- Add completion, duplicate, saved-history, separate-root, Idle, and
explicit-control regressions.
- Document the task boundary. Correct only the inaccurate DM-thread
statement in the existing feature recipe.

## Verification

- Before the production edit, the new PostgreSQL regression failed in
all three threaded-DM completion cases: two conversations existed
instead of one. The channel-thread and top-level-DM controls passed.
- The initial eight routing cases passed. CI then found five existing
slash-control failures. All five reproduced locally. Greptile reported
the same regression at 4/5.
- The first correction passed all 16 focused PostgreSQL cases. Secondary
review then found that slash commands skipped Done, Cancelled, and
completed DM tasks. Four new cases failed before the lookup change.
Commit 23ff4f04f passed all 20 focused cases, including status, explicit
new/close, delivered receipts, and a new task generation. The original
same-thread continuity cases still pass.
- Command: `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/chat-channels.integration.test.ts -t 'preserves
Slack thread history across completion|keeps separate Slack DM thread
roots|returns two answered Slack turns to Idle|binds Slack DM slash
controls|treats D-prefixed Slack status|serializes duplicate Slack
admission with an owned provider-reply settlement|suppresses a queued
provider reply when destination reach|continues to accept authenticated
Slack slash close/new'`.
- Map validation and `git diff --check` passed. Map validation proves
structure only.
- All 107 neighboring Slack adapter, SDK runtime, and receipt tests
passed across three files.
- The initial complete server typecheck passed with
`PAPERCLIP_TYPECHECK_LOW_MEMORY=1 pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server
typecheck`, including all three test-tree shards.
- Full local recursive typecheck and build stopped because this
workspace has no `cargo`. A separate default server typecheck was killed
under concurrent memory load; its lower-memory rerun passed. The broad
local test run was interrupted to free memory, so no full-local-suite
pass is claimed. The complete server typecheck passed again for
correction 367b6f9b3, including all three test-tree shards. The [full CI
pipeline](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42250458200)
passed for exact head 367b6f9b3f. This
includes typecheck, build, all chat and other test lanes, browser E2E,
Runner, and aggregate verify. The first CI run passed broad typecheck,
build, E2E, Runner, and other test groups, but its chat failures remain
recorded above.
- The initial regression launch could not load the unbuilt plugin SDK.
It ran after building the required workspace dependencies. A test-only
resource assertion was corrected to read persisted DM resources, which
the settings list omits. The completed-conversation case preserves an
existing review status.
- The initial correction test used a follow-up timestamp older than the
delivered control. The chronology gate correctly rejected it. A current
provider timestamp now verifies the new generation without weakening
that gate.
- Greptile's map finding was addressed by removing recipe expansions and
all agent-access map changes. Both review threads have replies and are
resolved. Greptile reviewed exact head
367b6f9b3f at [5/5 with zero new
findings](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19486#issuecomment-6689117840).
The secondary Paperclip Review rated that head 4/5 and found the
completed-task slash lookup error. Commit 23ff4f04f fixes this finding.
Greptile and Paperclip Review both rate head
23ff4f04f6 at 5/5. All three review
threads are resolved. The [full CI
pipeline](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42255926149)
now passes on this exact head. This includes typecheck, build, all test
lanes, browser E2E, Runner checks, Canary Dry Run, and aggregate verify.
All checks are terminal: 54 success, 1 neutral, and 3 skipped. Snyk also
passes. The PR has no merge conflict.
- The complete server typecheck passed again on 23ff4f04f, including all
three test-tree shards.
- The new test first asserted the conversation-list state. That API
displays terminal tasks as completed before the control is sent. The
test now reads stored binding state to check that completion waits for
the delivered receipt.
- No live Slack send or deployment was performed.

## Risks

- Native DM threads now reopen the existing task after Done or
Cancelled. Explicit new/close controls still release the binding after
their response is delivered. Top-level DMs still start new generations
after completion.
- Existing split tasks stay separate. Future replies use the latest
saved binding. This change does not merge old tasks or copy surrounding
DM history into a newly created thread.
- No schema, credential, provider scope, or permission changes are
required.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, tool use, repository
editing, and code execution. The runtime does not expose a more precise

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 8373ae905a fix(accounting): settle a never-started run whose recorder bound an empty fence map (#19826)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Budgets hold new work while a native run's final usage receipt is
outstanding
> - A run that never started a provider has nothing to account. #19700
added a rule that settles such a run at once.
> - In restart chaos waves, Retry runs that failed before any provider
start still held company admission for up to 10 minutes
> - This pull request fixes the condition that stopped the rule from
matching
> - The benefit: a failed run that provably never started a provider
settles at once and never holds other work

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19700, #19724.

**What happened?**
An OpenCode Retry run failed at once with
`native_session_cleanup_quarantined`. It had no model, no usage
receipts, no process start and no provider events, yet it held company
admission for the full 600-second closure bound. Two more waves had the
same shape, with holds of 309 and 324 seconds.

**Root cause**
`nativeProviderWorkNeverStarted` (`run-cost-accounting.ts`) required
`usage_json.accountingReceiptSourceFences` to be absent.
`createRunUsageRecorder` binds every run with that key, as an empty map
`{}`, even when no earlier receipt source exists. So the rule never
matched a run that had a usage recorder. The run then waited for the
closure bound as a run whose receipt was still closing.

The restart-evidence check for the unpriced-usage exemption
(`budget-exposure.ts`, from #19724) had the same flaw: it treated the
presence of the key as restart evidence.

**Expected behavior**
A failed native run with no receipts, no replaced receipt source and a
process that never launched (or was verified stopped) settles at once
with no charge. A run whose provider might still be spending keeps
holding.

## What Changed

- `run-cost-accounting.ts`: the never-started rule treats an empty fence
map as "no replaced source". Only a non-empty map shows that provider
work began.
- `budget-exposure.ts`: restart evidence also requires a non-empty fence
map.
- `doc/SPEC-implementation.md`: documents the rule.

## Verification

- Red then green, `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`:
- "settles a quarantined Retry whose recorder bound an empty fence map
at once". This is the exact chaos row: failed,
`native_session_cleanup_quarantined`, terminal_failure finalization,
receipt sequence 0, empty fence map, no receipts, no process events.
- "does not count an empty fence map as restart evidence for a timed-out
closure".
- Existing tests still pass. A run with a recorded but unverified
process still waits for the bound. The restart-derived exemptions still
apply to runs with a non-empty fence map or a recovery transition.
- Local: `closed-native-receipt-accounting` (51), the budget suites,
`heartbeat-cost-accounting`, `adapter-cost-failure-paths`,
`native-stop-accounting` and `native-session-executor` all pass. Server
`tsc --noEmit` is clean.

## Risks

- Low. The change only narrows what counts as a replaced receipt source.
A run whose source was really replaced has a non-empty map and behaves
as before.

Dotta 3112e4c955 Verify original Dot OAuth authority for signed Cloud requests (#19819)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Dot uses a user OAuth grant to act in one company.
> - Cloud must use that original grant when it resolves a selected
user's identity.
> - A Cloud signature alone must not create user or board authority.
> - The tenant's OAuth owner must check the token and its current
restrictions.
> - This pull request adds a signed private HTTP boundary for that
check.
> - The result contains only the checked identity fields. It grants no
task or board access.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server external-agent identity, public MCP OAuth, Cloud control
verification, and HTTP logging.

**Problem or motivation**

Cloud needs a private way to resolve the original Dot token for the
selected user, client, company and resource. The existing generic Cloud
control route creates an operator actor. That route is not the right
owner for this identity check.

**Proposed solution**

Add `POST /mcp/runner/oauth/cloud-principal`. Require the existing Cloud
signature and replay verifier. Bind the whole request to a new, closed
`mcp-dot:principal` action with a maximum 60-second lifetime.
Authenticate the original token once through the normal Dot OAuth owner.
Check current namespace authority before and after that call.

**Alternatives considered**

A Cloud-created grant or a board actor would change the authority owner.
Neither is used. The private route reuses the existing OAuth and Cloud
identity owners.

**Roadmap alignment**

This is a narrow boundary for the existing MCP and Cloud areas in
`ROADMAP.md`. It adds no work queue, public hosted profile, or provider
enablement.

Related public work: Refs #14846, #19427, #19750 and #19776. Searches
for the exact private path and action found no duplicate PR. The
matching private Cloud caller has merged. The current App head passed
its required checks and review.

## What Changed

- Add an original-token principal reader. Keep the original client,
selected user, company, resource, purpose, scope, membership and feature
restrictions.
- Add a 16 KiB raw JSON private route. Reject compressed, invalid UTF-8,
malformed and unknown-field bodies. Bind an ordered whole-body digest to
the signature and existing nonce fence.
- Compare the current stack, claim, instance, origin and connector
identity before and after OAuth. An absent owner or namespace fails
closed.
- Mount the route in normal `createApp` after hostname, runtime-claim
and standby checks, before session/actor work. Do not add it to generic
board-control routing.
- Keep private request and response logs content-free, including raw
buffers, headers, query data and reflected errors.
- Add controlled HTTP/privacy tests and a real normal-App
OAuth/Cloud-signer integration case. Document the machine-only contract
and correct the existing `assistant-connections/client-use` access
entry. No new capability ID or agent API entry is added. No schema,
lockfile, workflow, Runner, Muse or useful-task fixture changes belong
to this PR.

## Verification

- Current `70c03593`: normal module-boundary policy and all seven App
compiler programs passed. The public module factory has an explicit
portable Express return contract. Whole HTTP/log controls passed again:
30/30. The existing real paired OAuth/Cloud-signer/private HTTP case
then passed again on a fresh PostgreSQL fixture: 1/1, zero skipped. All
known child processes and five database connections closed; the final
independent SQL audit was empty.
- The original remote policy failure rejected an App import of a
module-internal path; dependent E2E/verify gates stopped on that
failure. The fix delegates through the public module API. A first local
declaration run reported TS2883 for its inferred return type; the
explicit public type fixed it. Original logs remain preserved. No
checker, compiler option, test body or authority check was weakened.

- The normal full App graph passed on the integrated source. The later
fixture-only repairs each passed the complete affected owning
program:405 entries, including 403 source roots. The remaining programs
and own dependency outputs carried only where their source was exact.
- Whole private HTTP/log files passed:30 tests, zero failures or skips.
The HTTP controls use a controlled OAuth owner with real signatures. The
log controls use the actual HTTP logger.
- The paired Cloud source passed its normal strict build and whole 26
signer/client/namespace and credential-error controls. These are
controlled caller tests, not provider tests.
- One normal-App paired case passed with a dedicated PostgreSQL
database. It used real DCR 201, PKCE, consent, token exchange and a
persisted unpaired grant; actual signed metadata publication and a
committed Cloud receipt; the real Cloud signer/client and actual App
HTTP; exactly-once authentication; refresh; current namespace
restrictions; and revocation. The Cloud registry/provider were the
existing controlled in-memory/Fake fixtures. Recorded inbound Hosts
matched, with zero metadata overflow. No grant, readiness or mirror ACK
was fabricated.
- The original principal helper's 21 controlled tests and two real-OAuth
tests passed before the HTTP slice. Those three files remained unchanged
through integration. They are separate source-scoped evidence, not an
extra combined run.
- Preserved failures: a helper import and test typing error were
corrected before the passed checks. An earlier suite failure did not
serialize its hook error and remains unexplained. Later runs captured a
missing normal managed-config initialization and HTTP 404 from the
loopback mapper. The fixture now calls the normal initialization owners
and uses the existing Host-preserving canonical HTTP adapter. All
original authority assertions and deadlines remain.
- Reproduce the local files with `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec
vitest run src/modules/external-agents/cloud-principal-http.test.ts
src/modules/external-agents/cloud-principal-log.test.ts --maxWorkers=1
--no-file-parallelism`. The real integration file is
`server/src/__tests__/cloud-principal-normal-app.postgres.test.ts`; it
requires its explicit dedicated test DB and an own compiled matching
Cloud checkout.
- The normal `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` check passed for 35 areas and
192 capability IDs. This validates map structure, not business
acceptance. The later edits are documentation/map only; all executed
business source and own outputs from the paired case remained exact.
- Current-head remote CI passes: 59 successful checks and three
intentional skips. Greptile reviewed this exact head at 5/5 with no
findings or review threads. The prior Ponytail review was Ship 5/5 at
the earlier head; no current-head Ponytail turn is present, which is
nonblocking under the authorized review policy. The three
full-repository commands were not repeated locally; the focused normal
App graph and affected tests above passed, and required remote CI
supplies the broad gates. No deployed, provider-capacity, cold-wake or
full hosted lifecycle result is claimed.

## Risks

- This is a security boundary. Signature, current namespace and original
OAuth restrictions must continue to fail closed. The response gives
identity only; callers still need normal operation authority.
- The request carries the original token. The reserved route uses a
closed log projection on both accepted and refused requests. Privacy
regressions remain a material risk.
- Both repositories must agree on the action and digest contract. Older
code rejects the unsupported action; no fallback creates authority.
- This is a prerequisite private boundary. The remaining hosted
discovery, wake, capability, operation, event, retry/reactivation and
revocation lifecycle work, plus Muse, remains open. No profile or
capability is enabled here.
- No migration is needed. Rollback removes the private boundary and
paired caller; normal OAuth and Personal MCP remain with their existing
owners.
- The engineering documentation describes this private machine boundary
and its access restriction. No operator-facing feature is enabled.
Documentation for full hosted enablement remains with that later work.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` (Sol6.1), through Codex, produced the source and
tests with tool use and local compiler/test execution. A GPT-6-based
Codex coordinator reviewed the work. Its exact model ID is unavailable.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 5eac099fbb fix(agents): batch independent follow-up questions into one card (#19634)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents ask users for input with the `request_human_input` tool or
the `ask_user_questions` interaction. Paperclip shows each call as one
question card.
> - In an onboarding walk, a Codex execution agent asked five
independent questions (name, menu and prices, contact, style, output).
It posted five cards, one after the other. Each card came 20-60 s after
the previous answer.
> - The tool description said: "For one question at a time, ask only the
next unanswered question and wait for its real answer." Agents read this
as a rule. The paperclip skill showed only a one-question example and
did not tell agents to batch.
> - No server cap exists. A question set accepts up to 64 questions.
> - This pull request changes the guidance. Agents now ask independent
inputs together in one card. They use a follow-up card only when a
question depends on an earlier answer. One-at-a-time stays available
when the user asks for it.
> - The benefit is fewer waits for the user: one card and one agent turn
instead of five.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
An execution agent asked a user five independent follow-up questions in
five separate question cards. Each card appeared only after the user
answered the previous card and the agent finished another turn (20-60 s
each).

**Expected behavior**
When an agent needs several independent inputs, it asks them together in
one multi-question card. The onboarding interview already does this ("1
of 4" pager).

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Complete onboarding on the Codex API path and hand off a task such as
"Create printable cake menu and logo".
2. Watch the execution agent's first turns.
3. See five sequential single-question cards.

**Paperclip version or commit**
master at 4938a930d6 (local dev server).

**Agent adapter(s) involved**
Codex (gpt-5.6-sol). The guidance is shared by all adapters that use the
Runner `request_human_input` tool or the `paperclip` skill.

## What Changed

-
`packages/paperclip-runner/src/protocol-actions/request-human-input.ts`:
replace the ambiguous "For one question at a time…" sentence. The new
text tells agents to ask independent inputs together in one questions
card. They use a follow-up card only when it depends on an earlier
answer. It keeps one-at-a-time for when the user asks for it.
- `skills/paperclip/SKILL.md` and
`skills/paperclip/references/api-reference.md`: add the same batching
rule to the human-input sections.
- `packages/mcp-server/src/tools.ts`: add the batching hint to the
`paperclipAskUserQuestions` tool description.
- Regenerated runner contracts (`semantic-tool-contracts.json`,
`protocol/manifest.json`, `native-execution-seeded.json`) and updated
the legacy MCP alias semantics in `spec/capability/mcp-tool-map.yaml`.
- New tests: `core-contracts.test.ts` (tool description) and
`paperclip-skill-utils.test.ts` (skill and API reference).

## Verification

Red on master (tests added, source unchanged):

```
packages/paperclip-runner: npx vitest run src/protocol-actions/core-contracts.test.ts -t batch
 × tells agents to batch independent questions into one card instead of asking them one by one
AssertionError: expected 'Create a durable human question or ap…' not to contain 'For one question at a time'
 Tests  1 failed | 20 skipped (21)

npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/paperclip-skill-utils.test.ts -t batch
 × tells agents to batch independent human-input questions into one card
AssertionError: expected ' For an open answer, use a text field…' to contain 'ask them together in one card'
 Tests  1 failed | 21 skipped (22)
```

Green after the fix:

```
packages/paperclip-runner: npx vitest run src/protocol-actions src/drivers/runner-tool-bridge.claude-schema.test.ts
 Test Files  4 passed (4)   Tests  46 passed (46)
npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/paperclip-skill-utils.test.ts            Tests 22 passed (22)
npx vitest run server/src/services/native-runtime/paperclip-runner-tool-authority.test.ts   Tests 41 passed (41)
node scripts/generate-semantic-contracts.mjs --check / generate-capability-contract --check / generate-semantic-action-catalog --check / generate-replay-goldens --check: current
```

`packages/mcp-server` has one failure ("allows create issue requests to
omit status…"). It also fails on master without this change, so it is
not related.

This is a guidance change. The automated check proves that the guidance
the agent receives tells it to batch. I did not run a live-model eval.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is text only: tool descriptions and skill docs.
No schema, API, or storage change.
- An agent could put a dependent question into the same card. The text
tells agents to use a follow-up card for dependent questions.

DottaandPaperclip 8812c1941d perf(storage): overlap bounded S3 multipart payloads (#19817)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The storage service uploads large workspace snapshots through S3
multipart uploads.
> - The current uploader permits four requests but fills each streamed
body before it starts the next one.
> - Slow payload delivery therefore remains serial even when request
acknowledgements overlap.
> - This pull request fills bounded part buffers and sends those
payloads concurrently through the existing SDK streams.
> - This lets the four-request window carry payload data while it
retains backpressure and failure cleanup.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related implementation: #18659. This fixes payload serialization within
that existing multipart owner. A search found no duplicate open storage
multipart fix.

**What happened?**

A controlled 24 MiB upload started part 2 only after part 1 had
delivered 99.22% of its bytes. The same sequence occurred for part 3.
The four-request cap overlapped acknowledgement waits but did not
provide useful overlap during payload delivery.

**Expected behavior**

Up to four part payloads can travel at the same time. Memory stays
bounded. Exact lengths, bytes, ordered completion, cancellation and
abort cleanup still apply.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run the new slow-consumer test against the previous uploader. Hold all
part consumers until four requests have started. The previous
implementation starts one request and the assertion fails. The revised
implementation starts four requests and then verifies every payload hash
and byte count.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Reproduced on the source from `585c885168`. The final branch is rebased
onto `ae1f781cac`.

**Deployment mode**

The S3 storage provider. Local tests use fake credentials and an owned
loopback HTTP server. No hosted writes were made.

## What Changed

- Share a 32 MiB part-buffer allowance across uploads. Stream up to four
buffered payloads concurrently through the existing SDK requests. When
the allowance is full, use the existing streaming path without an upload
queue.
- Keep the original streaming path for dynamic parts larger than 8 MiB.
This retains the provider part-count limit without larger buffers.
- Extend the existing tests for concurrent slow consumers, the shared
memory window and cancellation in both paths. Verify allowance release
after source and request failures. Check part identity independently of
acknowledgement order.

## Verification

- Baseline RED: the new controlled test failed with one request started
instead of four. Its cleanup released and awaited the upload.
- Final review-repair head: 26/26 tests passed across
`storage-s3-multipart.test.ts`, `storage-s3-failure-diagnostics.test.ts`
and `storage/config.test.ts`.
- These tests include the real S3 HTTP client, exact payload hashes and
ordered parts, excess and truncated input, early acknowledgements,
sibling failure, abort cleanup, stalled input and the bounded four-part
window.
- Strict server TypeScript, module boundary checks and `git diff
--check` passed on the final review-repair head. CI then caught an
optional SDK `Key` type in the new test fixture. A focused test
typecheck reproduced both TS2345 errors. The fixture now binds its
required controlled key; that typecheck and the named shared-window
regression pass. The uploader source is unchanged by this repair.
- Controlled 24 MiB comparison: 640.58 ms before and 393.88 ms after.
The new requests started within 7.37 ms. Both runs used 1 ms per
consumed chunk and 250 ms acknowledgement delays. This measures the
controlled fixture only. It does not predict hosted S3 throughput or
total migration time.
- Review RED: two blocked uploads consumed 64 MiB of source chunks under
the original per-upload buffer scheme. The new shared allowance kept the
source reads within 32 MiB plus stream lookahead. Three new controls
passed for concurrent uploads and allowance release after source/request
failures.
- The first treatment run passed 12/13 cases. Its remaining test assumed
completion order matched part order. The test now binds lengths to part
numbers and still checks the ordered completion request. An initial
typecheck setup attempt lacked the built plugin SDK; the canonical
dependency build and final typecheck passed.

- Final head `fbadf4f1cf427b896bbc255ffe2e7ad480ce06d3`: [full
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42373571408)
passed, including build, test shards, Typecheck + Release Registry and
`ci / verify`. All 61 reported contexts are terminal: 56 success, four
skipped and one neutral review. Greptile and Paperclip both gave a fresh
5/5 for this head. No review threads remain open.

## Risks

- Multipart uploads share at most 32 MiB of live part buffers per
process, plus existing stream and source-chunk overhead. The previous
path used smaller streaming buffers. With no buffer allowance left, an
upload uses the original streaming path. It does not wait for a shared
queue.
- Objects whose dynamic part size exceeds 8 MiB retain the current
serial payload behavior. No new object-size ceiling is introduced.
- Request bodies remain non-replayable streams. The SDK retry policy,
multipart protocol, cleanup policy, object format and public storage API
remain unchanged.
- No disk spool or cache is added. All current-head CI gates and both
reviews passed.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol`, with reasoning, tool use and code execution. The
context window size is not exposed by this session.

DottaandPaperclip 384fa2b7be Allow context compaction while Agent Chat waits (#19801)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their work.
> - Agent Chat can wait for a user between useful turns.
> - The task Properties panel already lets that user request context
compaction.
> - The queue treated that maintenance request as an ordinary wake and
refused it while the chat waited.
> - Compaction must maintain that session without starting a new
conversation turn.
> - This change admits the authenticated request, preserves the waiting
state during execution, and prevents competing requests from saving
extra maintenance work.
> - Ordinary and unauthorized wakes remain blocked.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19378, which introduced the existing Compact now action. Refs
#19377, whose review identified this independent queue admission gap.
Searches for `context_compaction` with `waiting` and `Compact now` with
`waiting` found no existing fix for this admission bug.

**What happened?**

An owner clicks Compact now for a waiting Agent Chat conversation. The
real compaction service reaches the heartbeat queue, receives no run,
and reports that compaction did not start.

**Expected behavior**

The authenticated owner can request one separate compaction run while
the chat waits. The request must keep its existing actor, task, agent,
budget, and execution checks. Ordinary waiting-chat wakes must stay
blocked.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Use an open Agent Chat conversation whose agent supports compaction.
2. Wait until the conversation is waiting for its owner.
3. Request Compact now from the task Properties panel.
4. Observe the refusal before this fix. The new database regression
calls the real compaction service and queue to reproduce it.

## What Changed

- Admit only the existing complete manual compaction envelope. Require a
user actor, no coalescing, the compaction intent, and matching nonempty
request IDs.
- Preserve the waiting conversation state, session generation, reply
boundary and unanswered questions in the existing conversation
preparation owner.
- Recheck active and deferred maintenance under the existing issue
admission lock. Competing clicks cannot save a second maintenance
request.
- Add execution coverage with and without a pending question. Add
concurrent admission and deferred-request controls, including admission
after the pending receipt is cancelled. Keep the existing authorization
and ordinary conversation controls.

## Verification

- The original service-to-queue request failed before the admission fix.
- The execution regression then caught the review finding: compaction
succeeded, but both waiting-state controls failed. The same complete
controls passed after the conversation preparation fix.
- A real concurrent request test recorded two durable maintenance
receipts before the atomic admission fix. It counts deferred authority
as well as admitted runs.
- Current integrated candidate: normal current Runner core and surface
TypeScript exports passed. All seven normal App typecheck programs
passed. The whole queue/execution suites passed 86/86, the whole
context-compaction suite passed 5/5, and 11 selected ordinary
conversation controls passed. There were 102 actual passes; the 29
unselected conversation cases are not counted as passes.
- Database controls use fresh dedicated PostgreSQL 17 databases, Node
24, one test worker and pools capped at four. Private fixture adapters
use the existing dedicated database and normal migrations. They keep
test bodies, assertions and time limits intact.
- Earlier fixture and setup failures remain recorded separately from
product failures. These include an omitted external URL, an invalid
closed-task fixture, a missing crypto import, an incorrect
result-envelope matcher, and an unavailable test-library helper. Each
was corrected at its owning boundary. A test-output text matcher also
missed Vitest's abbreviated failure; the raw assertion stack and failure
were retained.
- Local session tests exercise the actual admission, native Runner
lifecycle, accepted result and persisted conversation state through the
supported test backend. They do not prove live provider compaction, UI
rendering or deployed suspension.
- Exact-head remote CI passed: 59 successful checks, three intentional
skips and one neutral check. Greptile and Ponytail both reviewed this
head at 5/5 with no actionable findings. Ponytail explicitly marked it
Ship.
- Master advanced during review. A local merge evaluation preserves
every unrelated master change and all four PR files. The current App
programs and all three execution controls passed again on that projected
squash tree to check the workspace-finalization seam.

## Risks

The change affects admission and preparation for one maintenance
request. A broad exception could start ordinary work or reopen a waiting
chat. The request therefore keeps the complete existing manual envelope
and authorization checks. Conversation preparation still checks the
session generation. The existing issue lock owns duplicate admission.
There is no new timer, database migration or provider protocol.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex based on GPT-6 managed the change and reviewed the shared
queue fix. OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` authored the focused regression
coverage. Both used reasoning, repository tools and local code
execution. The runtime did not expose the context-window size.

795ad16c1f fix(server): bound the shutdown steps before the run drain (#19165)
Bound initial shutdown waits and finish workspace repairs before teardown.

Share a 20-second budget between waits before the heartbeat run drain.
Retain the original workspace recovery stop promise and join it after the
run drain and finalizers, before application and database teardown. Keep
that join for hot restart when the run drain is skipped. Log step and
drain durations and bound telemetry flush separately after the drain.

Verification: all 154 tests across the three relevant shutdown/startup
suites and every server source/test typecheck layer passed. Both actual
server lifecycle variants reproduce premature teardown without the fix.
All applicable CI passed and exact-head Greptile Apex scored 5/5.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip bf12b2d8ad fix: retry reviewed chat setup after temporary contention (#19787)
Retry reviewed chat preparation with the original accepted input.

Bound retries for authorization proof waits that expire before provider
work. Preserve the original answer receipt and queue later wakes
separately. Keep plan confirmation semantics by assigning the interaction
marker only to question answer delivery and legacy question payloads.

Verification: 433 tests across four backend suites, all 17 project-chat
browser tests, and all server source/test typecheck layers passed. The
plan approval regression was reproduced on the previous head before the
fix. All applicable CI passed and exact-head Greptile Apex scored 5/5.

af0fe8fe81 Keep personal MCP connections functional while idle tenants sleep (#19427)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work for AI agents.
> - Personal MCP connections should remain enabled while an idle tenant
sleeps.
> - Unfinished OAuth, transfer and delivery work must retain its owner
and deadline.
> - Cloud can receive bounded metadata and incoming work while the
tenant remains the company-scoped authorizer.
> - Current identity, revision and delivery acknowledgments establish
when ownership has transferred.
> - This change preserves useful wake, retries and revocation while
making settled ownership inspectable without writes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #19377 and #19750. Hosted companion:
[paperclip-cloud#1217](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/1217).

**What happened?** Enabled personal MCP grants and subscriptions could
keep an otherwise idle tenant awake. Ignoring those records would lose
discovery, authorization, delivery and revocation obligations.

**Expected behavior** Unconsumed authorization codes, device requests,
file handoffs and delivery work retain their original deadlines. Settled
connections remain enabled and become quiet after the current external
owner acknowledges responsibility. Incoming useful work resumes normal
authorization and delivery; revocation still takes effect for the
current company.

**Steps to reproduce** Complete normal PKCE/device consent and company
selection, synchronize client/device and revocation state, retain the
connection while idle, then exercise useful tools/events and revocation.
Sleep eligibility requires current incoming/deadline ownership
throughout.

## What Changed

- Add bounded signed client/device metadata and revocation
synchronization with exact revision, identity and ACK checks, startup
recovery and finite legacy-device cutover.
- Preserve company selection, authorization and operation identity.
Register grant work before its INSERT in the same transaction; retain
rollback, expiry and retry behavior.
- Require current managed identity/resource before hosted publication.
Receipt-cleared re-enable must obtain a fresh source ACK before device
creation.
- Reuse read-only settings and inspection budgets; connect MCP owners to
normal startup, drain and shutdown.
- Bound metadata pages and the actual signed request body while
preserving the default limits of other operations.
- Generate migration 0440 after the merged Legacy migration. Preserve
all 438 existing executable migrations and the journal prefix; retain
the normal five newest snapshots.
- Preserve the merged transaction-owner forwarding and regression
coverage from #19750 through normal ancestry integration.

## Verification

- Current own Shared/SDK, database, eval-kernel and Runner builds
passed, together with all seven normal application TypeScript programs.
Missing generated package exports/workspace links were restored through
normal setup; the original setup failures were retained. No source,
compiler option, test assertion or timeout was weakened.
- Normal migration generation changed only the five intended MCP tables;
its SQL is byte-identical to the reviewed MCP delta. Fresh reference
databases and both retained master/Muse histories upgraded through 0440,
preserving historical hashes, row fields, schema and idempotence. Direct
assertions cover the Legacy null default and MCP null/zero defaults. Two
selected history cases passed; the other 21 database cases were
unselected.
- All six current MCP lifecycle cases passed with zero skips: normal
PKCE approval intent, ACK recovery after outage, mutation during
publication, disable/re-enable with original expiry, company-deletion
rollback/commit and key rotation.
- All 81 checks in five current whole files passed with zero skips:
OpenAPI 34, read-only settings 2, diagnostic catalog 25, PostgreSQL
diagnostics 7 and dependency scheduling 13. PostgreSQL fixtures ran
normal migrations before test imports.
- Earlier canonical proof at App `cd1c8c6` / Cloud `9f67531` includes
real 60-second rate and three 15-second quiet windows, useful work and
three revokes. Later paired proof at App `43af514` / Cloud `914eb0f`
plus its reviewed candidate includes normal DCR, PostgreSQL metadata, a
144,017-byte signed publication, actual ACK, cap/default-413 controls
and a real 15-second quiet window. The relevant producer/signing/wire
inputs remain byte-identical in this integration; shared changes are
qualified above. These remain source-scoped observations, not a fresh
full canonical run on the integrated tree.
- All known test owners, process groups and OS sockets closed; an
independent final PostgreSQL audit found no remaining test sessions. One
dependency-test trace recorded 46 opens and 45 close events. Its cause
is unknown; this is not claimed as proof of graceful closure.
- Fresh exact-head remote checks passed: 59 successful and 4 skipped
contexts, with a complete current 5/5 Greptile review and all seven
review threads resolved. Targeted local checks do not constitute a new
whole-repository test run.

## Risks

App and Cloud must agree on identity, revision, namespace, deadlines and
revocation. Partial rollout, unavailable authority or missing ACK must
retain awake debt. Shared startup/shutdown and settings changed since
the earlier canonical profile, so historical observations carry only
within their stated source scope. No deployed Railway/Neon suspension,
Cloud alarm, savings or complete hosted Dot/Muse acceptance is claimed.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` produced code and verification, with a Codex
coordinator reviewing and integrating the changes. The coordinator's
exact runtime model ID and context-window sizes were not exposed.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 7475577cdb fix(daytona): keep a runner sandbox alive through the controller reconnect grace (#19754)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A remote agent run executes in a Daytona sandbox and keeps working
while the Paperclip server restarts
> - The server reattaches that runner within a 7-minute reconnect grace
> - Daytona stops an idle sandbox after its `autoStopInterval`, and it
counts only SDK and lifecycle calls as activity
> - With the server down, nothing touches the sandbox, so a 5-minute
auto-stop kills the runner before the server returns
> - This pull request makes the host tell the provider its reconnect
grace, so Daytona never auto-stops a runner sandbox inside that grace
> - The benefit is that a controller outage of up to 7 minutes no longer
turns a healthy remote run into a blocked task

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19199 (the same floor for the warm runner idle window). Refs
#19741 (follow-up delivery through restarts; no overlap).

**What happened?**
A restart-chaos wave on Daytona killed the server for 4m51s while a
per-turn remote run was active. The environment used `autoStopInterval:
5`. The last sandbox activity was at 06:09:16. The server came back at
06:14:19 and then crashed again. At 06:15:21 recovery called the
sandbox. The plugin found it not started and started it again. The
runner identity marker was still on disk, but its process was gone:
`native.remote_runner_recovery_failed {stage: process_verification,
reason: process_not_running}`, then
`runner_remote_process_identity_unavailable`. The task went from done to
blocked. An earlier wave showed the same failure after a 4m45s outage.

**Expected behavior**
A sandbox that holds a live remote runner survives any controller outage
up to the reconnect grace. The server reattaches the runner and the run
continues.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a Daytona environment with `autoStopInterval: 5` and a
`paperclip_runner` agent.
2. Start a remote run and kill the server for more than 5 minutes (less
than 7).
3. Restart the server. Recovery reports `process_not_running` and the
task becomes blocked.

## What Changed

- `server`: add `resolveRunnerReconnectGraceMsForRun`. It returns
`REMOTE_RUNNER_RECONNECT_GRACE_MS` for `paperclip_runner` on a sandbox
environment.
- `server`: forward `runnerReconnectGraceMs` to the provider worker on
lease acquisition and on the recovery reattach resume. It uses the same
provider-only path as `warmRunnerIdleTimeoutMs`. It is not lease
identity, lease metadata, or saved environment config.
- Daytona plugin: the effective auto-stop is at least the largest host
floor (warm idle window or reconnect grace) plus 5 minutes. With the
current grace this is 12 minutes. The plugin applies it at creation and
raises an older sandbox's shorter interval on resume (bounded, best
effort).
- Daytona plugin: keep the forwarded grace out of the normalized config.
Update the `autoStopInterval` manifest description.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: document the reconnect-grace floor next
to the warm floor.

## Verification

- Red/green Daytona plugin tests: `cd
packages/plugins/sandbox-providers/daytona && npx vitest run --config
vitest.config.ts`. The new cases failed before the fix (for example
`expected 120000 to be >= 720000`, and no `setAutostopInterval` call on
resume). All 605 tests pass after the fix.
- Server tests: `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/environment-run-orchestrator.test.ts
src/__tests__/environment-runtime.test.ts`. 247 pass. They prove
acquisition forwards the grace only for `paperclip_runner` on a sandbox,
that the reattach resume forwards it, and that it does not reach lease
metadata or saved config.
- `pnpm typecheck` for the plugin and `tsc --noEmit` for the server are
clean.
- `pnpm verify` asks for broad CI coverage because a doc changed.
Required CI supplies it.
- Evidence from the kept wave database: lease metadata shows
`autoStopInterval: 5`, `reuseLease: false`, `runnerLifecycleMode:
per_turn`. The run had no events between 06:09:16 and 06:14:19.

## Risks

- Cost: a runner sandbox that leaks (no cleanup) now auto-stops after 12
minutes instead of a shorter configured value. Cleanup still stops or
destroys released sandboxes. Explicit `0` and longer values are
unchanged. Auto-archive and auto-delete are unchanged.
- I did not inspect the sandbox state in Daytona directly. Cleanup
destroyed it before this investigation. The proof is the timing, the
lease config, and the `process_not_running` result after a restart that
kept the disk.
- No live Daytona replay ran.

file edit, code execution) in Claude Code.

DottaandPaperclip e2c7d81067 fix(server): keep reply recovery off web startup critical path (#19769)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The server restores retained native replies during startup.
> - Fair reply recovery can admit more due work while an earlier group
remains active.
> - Waiting for that whole pass can hold web readiness on unrelated
retained replies.
> - This pull request tracks reply recovery with the existing background
startup owner.
> - The server can become ready while idle and shutdown still account
for that work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #19726.

**What happened?**

The startup path awaited the native response worker's first pass. That
pass can remain active while fair dispatch admits later replies. A
controlled `startServer` regression stays in recovery until the held
reply pass finishes. A deployed backlog supported investigating this
boundary, but no captured runtime stack proves it caused the observed
startup delay.

**Expected behavior**

Retained reply recovery must keep its authority checks, retry deadlines,
and fair dispatch. Its completion must not be a condition for unrelated
web readiness. Active recovery must still block idle and be joined at
shutdown.

**Steps to reproduce**

Run the startup regression with a held native response worker promise.
Before this change, `startServer` does not complete. After this change,
startup reports ready, idle work remains active, and shutdown waits
until the promise settles.

## What Changed

- Track the initial native response pass with the existing heartbeat
scheduler work owner.
- Extend the actual startup wiring test to cover readiness, idle
accounting, worker stop, and shutdown join.
- Document the response recovery boundary for idle and readiness.

## Verification

- Mandatory agent preflight passed on macOS arm64 with Node 26.4.0.
- True RED: the new startup case failed because `startServer` had not
completed while reply work was held. The same case passed after the
change.
- Final head `279e97587b` passed the full startup test file: 123/123
tests.
- The unchanged real PostgreSQL later-page case passed. It holds 100 old
publication rows, publishes the independent 101st reply once while the
first pass remains pending, then verifies completion and no recurring
idle SQL.
- Final-head CI passed: 60 successful checks and 3 skipped checks,
including `ci / verify`. Fresh Greptile is 5/5 with no open threads.
- Server TypeScript check passed: `node node_modules/typescript/bin/tsc
-p server/tsconfig.json --noEmit`.
- Initial test-launch and missing generated SDK setup failures were
resolved before the regression ran. They are not RED or pass evidence.
- No deployment or live recovery action was performed for this PR.

Focused commands, from `server/`:

```sh
node ../node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
node ../cli/node_modules/tsx/dist/cli.mjs ../packages/db/src/test-postgres-command.ts -- node ../node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run src/services/native-runtime/native-response-publication-retry.test.ts -t 'publishes a later-page reply while older publication groups remain contended' --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism --hookTimeout 90000
```

## Risks

Web readiness can complete before retained reply recovery finishes. The
existing scheduler still owns errors, retries, scope checks, and
delivery authority. The existing idle tracker and shutdown join retain
in-flight work. Other startup recovery gates stay in place.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, `gpt-6.1-sol`, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. The context window size is not exposed.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 b03ea621c6 fix(environments): retry a teardown interrupted by server death at once (#19749)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - After a remote run, Paperclip destroys its provider sandbox. The
teardown first claims the lease with a 15-minute ownership fence, so no
other cleanup runs at the same time
> - #19696 made restart recovery end a fence when the claiming server
process is proven to have exited. It only does that for claims that
record the claimer
> - The run-release teardown and the stop-only teardown did not record
the claimer
> - When the server died during a run-release teardown, the sandbox
therefore stayed up until the 15-minute fence expired
> - This pull request records the claimer on those claims, and stops a
teardown attempt lost to a dead server from counting as a failed attempt
> - The benefit is that a restart during sandbox teardown destroys the
sandbox at the next startup sweep

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In a Daytona restart chaos wave, a run finished at 05:34:48. Its release
claimed the lease and called the provider, and a SIGKILL stopped the
server 2 seconds later. After restart the lease stayed `pending_cleanup`
with an in-flight claim. The sandbox was destroyed at 05:49:49, when the
15-minute claim fence expired. There was no provider error.

**Expected behavior**
A teardown interrupted by the server's death is retried by the next
startup sweep. It is not counted as a failed attempt. A real provider
error keeps the normal backoff.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Release a run's sandbox lease with destroy, and hold the provider
call.
2. Stop the server during the provider call.
3. Restart. On master, the sweep skips the lease until the fence expires
15 minutes after the claim.

Refs #19696.

## What Changed

- `environment-runtime.ts`: the run-release teardown claim
(`destroyClaimedSandboxLease`) and the stop-only teardown claim save
`pendingCleanupController`, bound to the claim's attempt id, the same
way sweep claims do since #19696.
- `heartbeat/recovery.ts`: sweep claims mark that they counted an
attempt. When the sweep ends the fence of a lost claim, it gives that
attempt back, so a teardown lost to a dead server does not move toward
the cap or the long cooldown. Claims from other paths did not count an
attempt, so nothing changes for them.
- Workspace-repair and export-retry fences are unchanged. They protect
workspace work, not teardown.

## Verification

- Red, then green:
- `environment-runtime.test.ts` → "retries a run-release teardown at the
next sweep after the releasing server dies". The provider call is held
during `releaseRunLeases(..., "destroy")`, the claim is marked as from
an exited server, and a restarted sweep runs. On master the claim has no
controller record and the sweep skips the lease. With the fix, the sweep
destroys it at once and records attempt 1.
- `heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep.test.ts` → "does not count a sweep
attempt lost to a dead server as a failed attempt". On master the retry
is recorded as attempt 4; with the fix it is attempt 3 again.
- `environment-runtime`, `heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep`,
`sandbox-creation-operations` and `environment-routes` pass (367 tests).
`tsc --noEmit` for `server` passes.

## Risks

- The proof that a claimer exited is the same-PID-space proof from
#19696. A live, foreign or unidentified claimer keeps its fence.
- Giving back a counted attempt applies only after that proof. A
teardown that fails with a provider error still counts and backs off.
- No schema change. The new fields live in existing JSON metadata.

96bc021edb fix(server): certify settled legacy processes for future retries (#19377)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Bounded retries must preserve current authority, budgets and
deadlines.
> - The tenant can wait for supported future work after the source
process and its cleanup stop.
> - Retained process identity alone cannot prove that cleanup finished.
> - This change records host-owned settlement and checks its exact
identity before a retry can cover its wait.
> - Uncertain process state, changed authority, live claims and cleanup
debt keep the tenant awake.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19001. Related dependencies: #19019 and #18988. Related #19340
covers explicit Native task Retry; this change covers future Legacy
process retries.

Current integrated source: `1645970a9322d1213ba25fc7b52366c285682977`,
normally merged with actual master
`131b566ca4fa866c4348739c75cfe48c805b3398`. The prerequisites above are
merged. This PR targets `master`.

**What happened?**

A future issue, company or review retry can retain its failed source
process identity. The deadline reader could not prove that host cleanup
finished. Supported waits stayed blocked. Ordinary issue retries also
needed an exact source-settlement check, and represented coalesced
requests needed exact input coverage.

**Expected behavior**

A supported future retry covers only its existing wait, under current
company and actor authority, after exact host settlement. Missing,
malformed, stale, cancelled, Native or unfinished source state stays
blocked. No retry gains new execution authority.

**Steps to reproduce**

Fail an ordinary process or fail environment preparation before adapter
entry. Let normal cleanup schedule the existing retry. Inspect its
settlement and deadline, stop and reconstruct the owner, and admit one
useful successor at the saved deadline. Hold cleanup or change authority
to verify that the reader refuses coverage.

## What Changed

- Add nullable internal `legacyProcessSettlement` state through normally
generated migration `0439_cultured_impossible_man`. No backfill or
adapter result creates the record.
- Write exact host settlement after stopped-process and cleanup checks.
Compare the current run and reject live claims or cleanup debt. Optional
persistence failure preserves normal cleanup and keeps sleep coverage
blocked.
- Add a separate preparation receipt for a claimed Legacy run that
failed before any adapter or Native dispatch. Require the same boot, run
times, preparing stage, released claim and completed cleanup. A null PID
alone proves nothing.
- Clear settlement on a new claim, process metadata or Native selection.
Omit the internal record from public serialized data.
- Check exact source lineage and current authority for ordinary issue,
company and taskless retries. Cover completed coalesced requests only
when the admitted retry represents their exact inputs.
- Add the closed `current_review_retry` wait with current reviewer,
stage and existing issue authority checks. Require a nonempty current
stage ID.
- Add actual producer, cold reconstruction, SQL negative, redaction and
optional-persistence controls.
- Repair CI fixture expectations for the additive column, startup mock,
budget owner and popup return URL. Bind the controlled Native comment
server explicitly to loopback.
- Replace temporary Slack clock logging with an exact persisted-deadline
assertion. Wait until that real deadline before the existing single
default poll. Keep both forced polls, business assertions and timing
limits.

## Verification

- On final integrated source `1645970a`, normal Shared/SDK
prerequisites, Runner TypeScript and the entire normal App layered
typecheck pass. Tracked source and lockfile remain unchanged.
- All 26 whole-file settlement, recovery-reader and bootstrap controls
pass. Seven separate real PostgreSQL producer/negative cases pass at
`cf16c6a`; each has one selected passing case and 18 filtered
registrations. Filtered registrations are not acceptance.
- Master then changed the preparation source-lock scope. Its three
intersecting cases were rerun on final `1645970a`: an actual failed
company process, an actual failed ordinary issue process, and held
preparation cleanup. Each preserves its source identity and original
deadline and admits one useful successor. Issue and preparation cases
exercise normal automatic retry; the company case uses the normal
explicit bounded-retry producer.
- The unchanged 26 controls and four other PostgreSQL cases retain their
`cf16c6a` proof after a scoped source comparison. Optional
settlement/preparation persistence failures keep certification blocked
while normal cleanup completes. An entered adapter without process
identity stays uncertified. This is scoped carry, not a claim that every
earlier case ran again on the final head.
- All recorded test owners and controlled groups closed. Final read-only
SQL audits returned no test sessions. One earlier postcase resource
barrier observed a transient unattributed database backend; that
database and original evidence remain preserved. Its later disappearance
is recovery, not an explained cause. No assertion, deadline or test body
was relaxed.
- Migration0439 was generated normally after master history. All
executable SQL and journal history are preserved; the five retained
snapshots are0435–0439. Every Legacy-owned patch and unrelated
actual-master blob/mode is preserved.
- Published exact head `1645970a9322d1213ba25fc7b52366c285682977` passes
all current required checks: 68 successful contexts and eight expected
skips after exhaustive pagination and superseded-run accounting. The
fresh complete Greptile review scores this exact head 5/5. All four
inline review threads are resolved. The latest Ponytail turn stopped
without a verdict; one normal retry was requested, with no active turn
or new finding observed. No old-head score is used. The original
old-base policy failure, its dependent aggregate failure, and the
corrected description-gate failure remain recorded. No full local
repository suite is claimed; remote typecheck, test and build gates
pass.

To repeat the real database coverage, set both
`PAPERCLIP_RECOVERY_DEADLINES_TEST_DATABASE_URL` and
`PAPERCLIP_RECOVERY_DEADLINES_TEST_ADMIN_DATABASE_URL` to the same fresh
dedicated test database and run the selected
`recovery-deadline-acceptance.test.ts` cases with one worker. An unset
URL, skipped case or filtered registration is not acceptance.

The fixtures use controlled local processes and real PostgreSQL.
Reconstruction creates new service owners inside the same test process.
They do not prove deployed Cloud alarms, physical host/database
suspension, new-host recovery or Native capacity settlement. The
original30-second retry remains below the Cloud270-second minimum wake
lead.

The merge projection also includes actual master
`c3180398faca815fed7a62674bd4b0c4e88884ae`, whose common completion path
now sends deferred/recovery notifications. Its unpublished normal merge
tree is `16b028d57150f8caa576e913f38343a365b542dd`. Normal Shared/SDK,
Runner TypeScript and the full App graph pass on that combined source.
One unchanged ordinary-issue acceptance case was rerun there: an actual
failed process retains the original automatic retry deadline, admits one
useful successor, and passes the settlement, authority and no-duplicate
assertions. It passed in 45.055 s; 18 filtered registrations are not
acceptance. All known owners and groups closed, and the independent
final database audit found zero remaining test sessions. The successful
database was removed normally. Recorded worker socket peak is
unavailable for this run; parent-process zero values are not used as
worker measurements. All 29 Legacy-owned paths and every unrelated
master blob and mode are preserved.

Two outside-diff review observations concern existing waiting-chat
compaction and cross-host Native result-lease recovery. Their files are
byte-identical to current master. This focused Legacy change does not
fix or qualify those separate paths.

## Risks

Settlement proves exact local closure. It does not cover live provider
work, Native ownership, cancellation, costs, claims, cleanup debt or
changed authority. Independent checks remain.

Ship normal migration0439 with the reader and writer. Preserve
executable history and the newest five snapshots0435–0439. Generate the
MCP child's next migration normally after this parent.

The prerequisites are merged; the final remote checks must use this
integrated exact head. This proof uses controlled local processes and
external PostgreSQL. It does not establish deployed Cloud alarm
acceptance, physical host or database suspension, cold host recovery, or
R5 Native capacity settlement. The30-second retry is below the Cloud
minimum wake lead.

This focused repair follows the roadmap's bounded recovery and Cloud
deployment work. It adds no new provider policy.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` assisted with readers, fixtures, source review and
verification through Codex. A coordinating GPT-6-family agent
implemented and reviewed shared lifecycle wiring and integration. Tools
included Git, native TypeScript checks and controlled tests. Exact
served revisions and context limits were not exposed.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 e620ce3678 fix(heartbeat): deliver each accepted follow-up exactly once through restarts and admission holds (#19741)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A user can comment, click Retry, or rely on automatic recovery while
an agent works on a task
> - Restart-chaos waves showed accepted follow-ups being dropped, or
delivered twice, around restarts and temporary company admission holds
(accounting still settling after a restart)
> - A dropped comment means the user's request is never acted on. A
duplicate reopens work that is already done
> - This pull request makes accepted work wait through a temporary hold
and resume when it clears. It also stops a comment from being promoted
again after a completed run already received it
> - The benefit is that each accepted follow-up is delivered exactly
once, eventually, unless the task is cancelled or a reached hard stop
applies

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19702 (never-started tasks during a temporary hold), #19700
(bounded accounting hold), #14910 (stale reopen from a deferred wake; no
file overlap).

**What happened?**
Restart-chaos waves found these shapes:
1. **Comment wake cancelled.** A comment was saved behind a run and
promoted when the run ended. A temporary company hold refused the
unstarted queued run, and claim cancelled it terminally. The recovery
wake that followed was cancelled the same way, and the task rested
`blocked` without the comment.
2. **Dead Retry.** A Retry click during the hold stayed
`deferred_issue_execution` after the hold cleared. Nothing woke it, and
the issue held no execution lock.
3. **Refused assignment.** A new task's first wake was refused during
the hold. Nothing woke stranded-work recovery when the hold cleared, so
the task stayed `todo` with no run.
4. **Silent comment after recovery.** A comment was saved behind a run
that restart recovery finalized. A company-scoped hint waited out the 30
s deferred-receipt rescan, so the task looked done with the message
unread.
5. **Comment delivered twice.** A run whose provider process was lost
had a saved comment. Its retry started after the comment, received it in
its prompt (task history), did the work, and finished the task. The
saved wake was then promoted anyway, which reopened the done task.

**Expected behavior**
An accepted follow-up (comment, Retry, recovery) is delivered exactly
once, eventually, unless the task is cancelled. A temporary refusal
never ends in a terminal cancel, skip, or block. Reaching a hard stop
remains the board's decision.

## What Changed

- `heartbeat/queue.ts`: on a budget block at claim, an unstarted queued
run stays queued when the block is temporary. A reached hard stop or
blocked unpriced usage still cancels it.
- `recovery/service.ts`: stranded-work recovery waits out a temporary
hold for any task. It does not escalate to `blocked`. This extends
#19702 beyond never-started tasks.
- `budget-block-ownership.ts`: a shared `isBoardOwnedBudgetBlock`, moved
out of the recovery service. `budgets.ts` is unchanged.
- `run-cost-accounting.ts`: settling a run's accounting wakes queued-run
dispatch, the deferred-receipt worker, and stranded-work recovery. Held
work waits passively; this is what resumes it.
- `deferred-execution-notifications.ts`: new
`notifyDeferredWakesForIssue`. `native-run-projection.ts` (a run
reaching a terminal status) and `environments.ts` (lease release) now
hint each saved wake of the issue by id, so delivery does not wait out
the company rescan interval.
- `wake-queue/adapters/postgres.ts`: release treats a saved comment as
delivered only when a succeeded run of the wake's agent on that issue
started after the comment's latest revision, and either received the
comment as its own wake input (`wakeCommentIds`) or was a retry of the
interrupted turn whose task history included it. In that case it cancels
the saved wake with "Queued messages were already delivered to a
completed run" and leaves the task as it is. Task history alone never
consumes a message saved for its own turn. One query checks the whole
batch.
- `run-cost-accounting.ts`: settling late receipt debt also sends the
hold-release notifications.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: documents the rule.

## Verification

Red on `master` and green with this change, on embedded Postgres:
- `server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-held-comment-wake.test.ts`:
- A promoted comment refused by the hold stays pending, with no
cancelled run and no `blocked` task. It is delivered once after the hold
clears through real `accountRunCost`.
- A Retry clicked during the hold starts exactly once after accounting
settles, which wakes its owner.
- A new task whose assignment was refused during the hold starts once
accounting settles, which wakes stranded-work recovery.
- A comment that a later succeeded retry already received as history, or
that a later run received as wake input, is consumed without reopening
the task.
- Guard tests (green on both):
- A comment is still delivered in each of these cases: the later run
never received it, it was edited after that run started, it was posted
while the run was already running, or a non-retry run only saw it as
history.
  - A task whose continuation was refused waits out the hold.
  - A reached hard stop is still refused.
- `server/src/__tests__/native-run-projection-work.test.ts`: projecting
a recovered run terminal hints the saved comment's own wake (red on
`master`).
- Related suites pass locally (14 files, 482 tests): wake-queue, queued
comments routes, refused assignment wake, native run projection.
- Live replays (local, unmasked, kept instances):
- `--replay w-20261107T031005-s7501/t04` (Claude C1, K1): PASS. The
comment's run was created at 03:56:24 during the hold, stayed queued,
started at 04:06:24 when the hold cleared, and succeeded. It is the only
run carrying the comment.
- `--replay w-20261107T002911-s7401/t01` (before the per-wake hint): it
reproduced shape 4. Run 592d772f was killed 250 ms after
`run.result.accepted`, released and finalized at restart, and the task
rested `done` with the comment still saved. Calling the existing sweep
on the kept database promoted it, which confirmed that the missing piece
was the trigger.

## Risks

- A queued run can now sit queued for the length of a temporary hold,
which #19700 bounds. It does not hold the issue's execution lock, so
later comments still coalesce into it.
- The delivered-comment rule depends on the run's recorded prompt
context. A succeeded run that received the comment in its history counts
as delivery, even if the agent did not act on it. This matches
exactly-once delivery semantics.
- Settling accounting now emits three extra notifications per run. They
are coalesced per company.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, run as an agent in
Claude Code with tool use (shell, file editing, local test execution,
live restart-chaos replays).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 9f0ebf6f70 fix(accounting): close a run whose turn was lost on restore, and stop succeeded runs holding all work (#19724)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Budgets hold new work while the cost of completed runs is unknown
> - In a restart chaos wave, a native ACPX Claude run crossed a server
kill, resumed, and succeeded. Its usage receipt never became complete.
> - For the 10-minute closure bound, admission refused all work in the
company. This included tasks that never crossed a fault.
> - This pull request fixes the receipt for a turn that was lost on
restore. It also stops a succeeded run from holding all new work.
> - The benefit: one late usage report no longer freezes a company, and
hard stops still apply.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19700 (the accounting closure bound that this follows).

**What happened?**
A native ACPX Claude run crossed a server SIGKILL in the middle of a
turn. The Runner restored the session, and the run succeeded 54 seconds
after it started. All 17 usage receipts stayed incomplete. Accounting
settled the run only at the 10-minute closure bound. During those 10
minutes, admission refused all company work with "Company cannot start
work while completed runs await accounting".

**Root cause**
ACPX reports provisional usage (`runDeltaComplete: false`) until a turn
ends. The kill lost the turn that was active, so that turn never got a
complete report. The restored Runner failed that turn with
`provider_turn_lost_on_restore`. Native turn accounting
(`createNativeTurnAccounting`) required every terminal turn to have
usage, so this turn kept every later receipt incomplete. This was true
even after the continuation turn completed with full usage. The
admission gate then counted the succeeded run as a pending terminal run
for the whole company.

**Expected behavior**
The receipt closes when the run's turns end. A turn that was lost on
restore makes the usage a lower bound. A succeeded run with only usage
outstanding does not hold other work.

## What Changed

- `native-usage-accounting.ts`: a turn that failed with
`provider_turn_lost_on_restore` and has no complete usage no longer
holds the receipt open. The snapshot marks `accountingUsageLost`.
- `native-session-executor.ts` and `native-usage-delivery.ts`: such a
receipt carries the provenance note "a provider turn was lost on restore
and never reported its usage; observed usage is a lower bound".
- `anthropic-pricing.ts` and `codex-pricing.ts`: the rate-card pricers
keep a producer's provenance note.
- `native-usage-delivery.ts` and `usage-receipts.ts`: remote producer
delivery keeps a `lostOnRestore` marker on the receipt's producer event,
so replay also excuses the lost turn. Receipts saved without the marker
still replay.
- `budget-exposure.ts` and `budgets.ts`: admission waits only for
pending runs that ended without succeeding (`waitingRunCount`). A
succeeded run whose provider reported observed usage is bounded like a
running run: its observed cost counts toward spend and reservation
capacity, and its settled charge can still reach the hard stop.
- `budget-exposure.ts`: a closure that timed out because of a
control-plane restart keeps the unpriced-usage exemptions, whatever its
token count. Restart evidence is a replaced receipt source, a native
recovery transition that is not an ordinary same-run retry, or a turn
lost on restore. A second chaos run showed the need. It recovered and
succeeded, but its final usage report was lost with the restart, so it
settled as unpriced 0 cents. The blocking policy then opened a hard
incident and paused the company. A timed-out closure with no restart
evidence still counts.
- `run-cost-accounting.ts`: a lost receipt that carries a positive
provider-reported cost settles at that cost as an estimate marked as a
lower bound, not as unpriced.
- `paperclip-runner-tool-authority.ts` and `budgets.ts`: a running run's
own tool mutations are evaluated as admitted work. Hard stops and pauses
still refuse them. Accounting holds, recovering runs and budget inputs
that await evaluation do not. In a third chaos run, a live run's write
to its task document was refused during a temporary hold, so the run
proposed a blocked result.
- `doc/SPEC-implementation.md`: documents these rules.

Policy choice: a succeeded run's provider work is over, so it has less
unknown spend than a running run. Running runs never held admission.
Failed, cancelled, timed-out and interrupted runs still hold new work,
because their provider may not have stopped. A per-agent gate would
still freeze unrelated work of the same agent. A per-reservation gate
does not help when `reservationCents` is 0, which was the case in this
wave.

## Verification

- Live: a restart chaos wave ran master plus this PR (c2a48fb1e0) with
no masking. It passed 6/6, and every task crossed a restart. There were
0 accounting holds, 0 refused agent writes, 0 company pauses, and every
cost settled as estimated.

- Red then green: `native-usage-accounting.test.ts`, "closes a run whose
earlier turn was lost on restore, as a lower bound". It uses the event
sequence of the chaos run.
- Red then green: `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`, "does not
hold other work for a succeeded run with only usage outstanding". It
also checks that the hard stop still applies.
- I changed "neither pauses nor holds admission while a succeeded run's
charge commits" to the new policy. A failed run in the same state still
holds new work.
- Red then green: `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`, "never
hard-stops a blocking policy for a restart-derived timed-out receipt".
It uses the zero-token row shape of the chaos run and a case with
unpriced tokens. Without the fix, the company was paused.
- Red then green: `runner-api.integration.test.ts`, "lets a running run
write during a temporary accounting hold, but not after a hard stop".
- Red then green: `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`, "does not
hold other work for the s7504 succeeded row shape".
- Red then green: `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts`, "settles a
timed-out restart receipt at its provider-reported cost, without holding
or pausing". It uses the OpenCode/OpenRouter row shape from a fourth
chaos run.
- `anthropic-pricing.test.ts`: the rate-card provenance keeps the
lower-bound note.
- Local: `closed-native-receipt-accounting`, the budget suites,
`native-usage-accounting`, `native-usage-delivery.integration`,
`native-runner-restart-recovery.integration` and `anthropic-pricing` all
pass (187 tests). Server `tsc --noEmit` is clean. `pnpm verify` asks for
CI coverage because the spec changed.

## Risks

- A succeeded run whose final charge is higher than its observed cost
can let one more task start before the charge commits. The hard stop
then pauses the scope as it does for a running run that overruns.
- A run that includes a lost turn settles with a lower-bound usage
figure. The provenance says so, and a later receipt still reconciles
through the late-receipt path.

tool use and code execution.

839d41aabb fix(server): retire owned plugin listeners before idle sleep (#19358)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Plugins receive durable agent lifecycle events through a registered
host.
> - The host uses a PostgreSQL LISTEN connection to wake delivery.
> - An idle report could return `none` while that host-owned connection
stayed open.
> - This change gives that listener an exclusive owner and closes it
during the current idle hold.
> - Release or expiry restores listening before journal replay.
> - Failed close and pending work continue to block sleep.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18988, which is now merged. This focused ten-file change now
targets master. Current integrated candidate:
`0f83005122ef1bdb1f1e08f8f58424c9a840ebb1`, with actual master
`644ee66f5d4ae8365fe8b9eca57df2be7405b5ab` preserved through normal
merges. No history was rewritten.

**What happened?**

A normal local App with an installed lifecycle plugin could return an
idle `none` report while its lifecycle LISTEN backend and socket stayed
open.

**Expected behavior**

The host must close its own listener before it reports idle safety. It
must retain other subscriptions, durable events, company scope, retry
deadlines and useful reactivation.

**Steps to reproduce**

Start the normal server with a lifecycle plugin. Create an agent and
wait for its durable acknowledgment. Stop the server, create another
agent while it is stopped, and restart with the same files. Request an
owned idle hold after ordinary replay. Check the exact listener backend
and matched Node socket before shutdown. Let the valid hold expire
naturally, then make an ordinary authorized agent update and check its
durable plugin acknowledgment.

Live executing or persistent preview services remain active. The
separate hosted preview dependency
[paperclip-cloud#478](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/478)
retains its own App and operator prerequisites. This PR does not claim
deployed preview or suspension acceptance.

## What Changed

- Add a private, exclusive database listener owner that inherits the
normal client policy.
- Prepare plugin lifecycle retirement after native retirement under the
same current idle hold.
- Use one delivery-eligibility helper for dispatch and idle journal
inspection. It preserves the same manifest, capability, company-disable
query, and skip rules.
- Close only the owned listener. Keep failed close ownership and
inspection failures visible.
- Resume listening on normal release or expiry, before journal replay.
- Preserve disabled-feature retry history and the original deadline on
re-enable.
- Await lifecycle disposal during normal shutdown and consumer teardown.
- Add owner regressions and document the lifecycle contract.

## Verification

**Current integrated source:**
`0f83005122ef1bdb1f1e08f8f58424c9a840ebb1`. Fresh normal Runner
TypeScript passed in 0.785 seconds. The complete normal App layered
semantic check passed in 28.284 seconds. All tracked source, the
lockfile and the 18 separate private witness inputs stayed unchanged.
Known compiler owners closed and the isolated temporary home was
removed.

**Current product qualification:** at measured integration
`896cc9b62993e6ed10418d7a7417e1ddbf8dc89c`, all three whole files passed
with no failures or skips: lifecycle delivery 40, runtime hooks 20, and
runtime assignments 24. The actual physical LISTEN and natural-expiry
controls passed. All owned clients and captured processes closed.
Independent final session checks were zero before normal deletion of
each successful test database.

**Normal full-App physical retirement:** the original case passed in
47.574 seconds. It exercised real startup, readiness, SDK callbacks,
durable ACK, foreign-company exclusion, physical stop, offline input and
cold replay. The initial unknown hold and its ordinary release remain in
the evidence. After the original 30.5-second cadence, a new valid hold
returned quiescent. The exact current cold-App LISTEN backend and its
matched Node socket closed before server stop.

**Normal full-App natural expiry:** the separate original case passed in
77.391 seconds under its original 90-second body cap. The final valid
30-second hold expired naturally. A new listener backend and matched
current App socket appeared before fresh input. An ordinary authorized
agent-name PATCH produced journal event 20, the actual SDK callback and
durable ACK. Foreign exclusion and readiness assertions passed. The
final measured hold had no manual release, replacement hold or shortened
TTL. The original preparatory unknown hold, ordinary release and
30.5-second cadence remain explicit.

Both App cases used the normal current server helpers and actual SDK
bundling/worker entry. A private compatibility change supplied the same
owned HOME at the exact existing child-fork boundary. It did not change
the product helpers, business assertions or timing limits. These
separate acceptance fixtures remain outside the focused product diff.

**Source carry to the current candidate:** all nine other owned files,
listener mechanics, actual producer paths, SDK paths and measured hold
behavior are unchanged. The sole owned intersection from newer master is
an independent environment-delete cleanup callback in `app.ts`. The
plugin witnesses do not call that route. Normal merges preserve every
unrelated master blob and file mode. The fresh current semantic checks
above qualify the integrated source. New master Native crash-recovery
and saved-copyback Retry capabilities are not claimed by these plugin
cases.

**Actual master merge target:** newer master contains retained plugin
Runner release/resume and other Native recovery fixes. The projected
combined target passed fresh normal Runner TypeScript in 0.799 seconds
and the full App semantic check in 29.715 seconds. All ten plugin-owned
blobs and modes remain exact to the published head; every unrelated
master change is preserved. The measured plugin cases create no Native
provider turn or warm Native session. The unchanged
native-first/plugin-second ordering still checks the native result
before listener retirement. Later sparse-checkpoint and Native
response-publication changes do not enter those paths. This is a scoped
source carry, not new hosted Runner acceptance.

**Failures retained:** an earlier reactivation fixture's real timer
returned one millisecond before its original wall-clock expiry. Its
private fixture now waits any positive remainder and retains the same
expiry assertion and limits. The earlier partial-composition `unknown`
result remains distinct from normal-startup proof. Current qualification
also exposed missing normal workspace dependencies and a private guard
that assumed loose Git refs. Normal owned dependency setup and an exact
loose-or-packed reader fixed those setup failures. No business
assertion, timeout, permission boundary or product sleep gate was
relaxed.

Repeat focused product coverage with a fresh external fixture database
and the normal server Vitest command, one worker:

```sh
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run src/__tests__/plugin-lifecycle-delivery.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run src/__tests__/agent-runtime-hooks.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run src/__tests__/agent-runtime-assignments.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
```

Exact current head `0f83005122ef1bdb1f1e08f8f58424c9a840ebb1` has 60
successful checks, three skips and one neutral result, with no pending
or failing contexts. Greptile completed its full review at 5/5 with no
actionable issue. All root and nested review pages were read; the
earlier eligibility finding is resolved. Ponytail's latest turn stopped
before a verdict. A normal retry was requested; no current Ponytail
verdict or score is claimed. Previous `3ca86ec` CI and scores are
historical. A full local repository typecheck/test/build or browser run
is not claimed. Controlled local App/SDK/PostgreSQL proof does not
establish live provider, deployed Railway/Neon suspension, signed Cloud
alarms or global exactly-once delivery.

## Risks

- A listener close failure or uncertain inspection must continue to
block sleep.
- Release, expiry, configuration changes, and journal arrival can race
with retirement. Epoch and current-hold checks retain conservative
results.
- Delivery remains at least once across uncertain ACK boundaries. This
change does not add global exactly-once delivery.
- The database helper closes only its exclusive listener client. Other
owners and subscriptions keep their resources.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol`, reasoning and code/tool use. The managing Codex
agent implemented shared database/composition seams and reviewed the
change; its exact model ID was not exposed. The runtime does not expose
a verified context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip 1c91bacf97 fix(native): admit independent replies during contended publication (#19726)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages work done by AI agents.
> - A completed native run must deliver its saved final response.
> - The response worker also recovers retained replies that can wait on
publication locks.
> - A pass waited for its old publication groups even when other check
slots were free.
> - This could delay an independent final reply beyond a full page of
retained candidates.
> - This PR enables the existing shared coordinator option that admits
independent due work during an active pass.
> - Existing authority checks, resource keys and the four-check limit
still control publication.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A native run completed after replacement recovery. Its final response
and accounting were saved, but its final issue reply was missing. The
response queue contained more than 100 retained chat replies and
repeated endpoint-lock failures. The existing worker did not admit
independent due entries until its current groups finished.

**Expected behavior**
A contended publication owner must not hold free worker slots. An
independent accepted final reply must publish once, including when its
candidate is on a later SQL page.

**Steps to reproduce**
Create 100 accepted, committed replies that share one publication owner.
Create an independent reply after them in candidate order. Hold the old
coordinator rows with a database transaction and start the real response
worker. Before this change, the independent reply stays unpublished
until the old group is released.

Related: #18977 changes response selection in standing conversations.
This PR changes only worker admission and preserves response selection.

## What Changed

- Enable `admitDueWhileActive` in the native response worker's existing
shared coordinator configuration.
- Add a real PostgreSQL regression with the full 100-row SQL page, the
default dispatch batch, real row-lock contention and a later-page
independent reply.
- Verify one comment per reply after settlement and no further SQL or
scheduled deadline across 60 seconds of idle time.
- Update one existing principal/rescope integration assertion to observe
the reconciled invalidation revision. Keep its actual per-run replies,
authorization, publication and idle checks.

## Verification

- Regression on the unchanged worker: the independent reply remained
unpublished while the first 100 replies were locked. The real PostgreSQL
test failed as expected.
- Final head `748fb9609104c016c33ff7caf282ba9e15e88495`: all six
publication regressions and both principal/rescope controls passed (8/8,
47.96 seconds). Checks cover later-page admission, exact per-run comment
counts, retry and rollback behavior, authorization, and 60 seconds with
no idle SQL or scheduled deadline.
- The tests used the canonical PostgreSQL wrapper and one owned
disposable PostgreSQL 18.1 fixture. All clients and test databases were
closed before fixture cleanup.
- The current-head [full CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42338953241)
supplies typecheck, build and broad test coverage. All current-head
checks passed; the merge gate is green.
- Local full typecheck was blocked by unbuilt dependencies; it is not
counted as a pass. The prior timer-state CI failure and the final
successful rescope-generation regression remain recorded.
- Greptile reviewed the final head at 5/5 with no unresolved threads.
`git diff --check` passed.
- Deployed acceptance remains separate. No serving instance was changed
by the PR tests.

## Risks

The worker can now use free slots during a slow pass. The shared
coordinator still limits checks to four and preserves task, endpoint and
principal exclusions. Authorization, result identity, retry limits,
response selection and transaction ownership are unchanged. The
regression checks idle quiet after all concrete obligations settle.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6.1 (`gpt-6.1-sol`), with reasoning, code execution and tool
use. The runtime does not expose the context window size.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 aed053633e fix(environments): run pending sandbox cleanup when an environment is deleted (#19716)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Operators delete a sandbox environment, optionally with consent to
destroy its sandboxes (`DELETE
/api/environments/:id?destroyReusableSandboxLeases=true`)
> - A sandbox whose teardown failed or was interrupted is kept as a
`pending_cleanup` lease, and it blocks the delete
> - The cleanup sweep retries such a lease only after a cooldown of up
to 5 minutes
> - A consented delete therefore returned 409 `pending_sandbox_cleanup`
for minutes. A caller with a shorter deadline gave up, and the
environment and its sandbox stayed behind
> - This pull request makes the consented delete run one teardown
attempt for the environment's pending cleanups now, then re-check
> - The benefit is that a consented environment delete completes as soon
as the provider teardown succeeds

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
After a restart chaos wave, the harness deleted the wave's Daytona
environment with `destroyReusableSandboxLeases=true`. The server
returned 409 `pending_sandbox_cleanup` every 3 seconds for the whole
120-second client deadline. A run lease had entered `pending_cleanup`
after its run failed, and the sweep's retry cooldown had not passed. The
environment was not deleted.

**Expected behavior**
With explicit consent, the delete tears down the environment's own
pending sandbox cleanups and completes when that teardown succeeds. A
teardown that fails, or one already in flight elsewhere, still blocks
the delete.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Leave a sandbox lease of an environment in `pending_cleanup` with a
future retry time.
2. `DELETE /api/environments/:id?destroyReusableSandboxLeases=true`.
3. On master, the response is 409 `pending_sandbox_cleanup` until the
cooldown ends.

Refs #19696 (restart recovery for creation and teardown claims; this
builds on it).

## What Changed

- `heartbeat/recovery.ts`: `sweepPendingCleanupLeases` accepts
`environmentRetry: { environmentId, actorId }`. Like the existing
run-scoped explicit retry, it bypasses the cooldown for one attempt,
never takes over an in-flight attempt, and logs
`environment_lease.cleanup_retried` with reason `environment_deleted`.
It touches only that environment's leases.
- `routes/environments.ts`: when the delete has consent and the only
blockers are pending cleanup and reusable leases, it runs that retry
first, then re-reads the blast radius. The existing reusable-lease
destroy and the final guard are unchanged. The new dependency is a
narrow, optional `retryPendingEnvironmentCleanup` option; without it,
behavior is unchanged.
- `app.ts`: wires the option to the existing heartbeat service instance.

## Verification

- Red, then green:
- `environment-routes.test.ts`: "runs the environment's pending sandbox
cleanup now and deletes with explicit consent" and "keeps rejecting when
the consented pending cleanup attempt does not finish" fail before and
pass after. "does not run pending sandbox cleanup without consent or
past another blocker" passes in both.
- `heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep.test.ts`: "runs one attempt for a
deleted environment's cleanup during its cooldown, scoped to that
environment" fails before and passes after. It checks that another
environment's lease and an in-flight claim are untouched, and that the
activity log is written.
- `sandbox-creation-operations.test.ts`: "reclaims an issue-bound
creation after its run failed and the issue finished on a later run"
covers another chaos finding. A creation intent bound to an issue was
interrupted by SIGKILL 0.5 s after it committed, its run ended
`process_lost`, and a later run finished the issue. The test fails on
the code before #19696 and passes on master, so #19696 already covers
this case. The test is kept as a regression.
- After rebasing on master, `environment-routes`,
`heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep`, `agent-runner-qualification-routes`
and `sandbox-creation-operations` pass (192 tests). `tsc --noEmit`
reports no errors in the changed files.

## Risks

- A consented delete now makes provider teardown calls for pending
cleanups. Those sandboxes were already queued for destruction, and the
operator consented to destroy the environment's sandboxes.
- One explicit attempt counts toward the lease's attempt cap, the same
as a user Retry.
- The delete request now waits for those teardown attempts. Each attempt
uses the existing plugin timeouts.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 51eb4ff705 fix(recovery): finalize an accepted native result after a hard kill (#19713)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A native run hands its accepted result to a controller lease, and
the controller finalizes the task from that result
> - A graceful shutdown releases that lease for the next server
(#19591), but a hard kill (SIGKILL, OOM, host crash) cannot
> - After a hard kill between result acceptance and finalization, the
next server waited for the dead controller's 20-minute lease, so the run
stayed `running` and the user's follow-up comment waited with it
> - This pull request releases that lease at startup when the controller
is proved dead by its boot ID and process identity, never by age
> - The benefit is that the saved result finalizes within seconds after
a restart, without another provider turn, and queued follow-up work
continues

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19591 (the graceful-shutdown counterpart) and #19578
(boot-identity proof for legacy runs).

**What happened?**
A restart-chaos wave sent K1 (SIGKILL) 20 ms after a Claude run recorded
`run.result.accepted` and `run.terminal`. The run then stayed `running`
for more than 10 minutes, through four more restarts. The finalization
row was `workspace_finalizing` with the stored result. Its lease
belonged to the killed server: a different `controller_boot_id`, a
`controller_pid` with no process, and `lease_expires_at` 20 minutes
ahead. Startup recovery skips runs that already have a result. The
result-commit worker waits until the lease expires. The task's follow-up
comment could not run until then.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Let a native local run accept its result.
2. SIGKILL the server before finalization finishes.
3. Restart the server. The run stays `running` until the old lease
expires.

**Expected behavior**
After a restart, a result lease held by a stopped controller of an
earlier boot is treated as released at once. The stored result finalizes
once, with no new provider turn, and the follow-up wake runs after it.

## What Changed

- New
`server/src/services/native-runtime/native-dead-controller-result-lease.ts`:
`releaseDeadControllerResultLeases` finds `running` native runs with an
accepted result and an unexpired lease. It requires the lease to belong
to a different controller boot. It proves the controller stopped with
`evaluateNativeControllerTakeover` (`requireStoppedController`): the
process is dead, or its PID now names another process. It then expires
that lease with a compare-and-set on the exact owner token, boot ID, and
PID, and notifies the result-commit and finalization workers.
- `server/src/services/heartbeat/recovery.ts`:
`recoverNativeRunsAfterRestart` calls this first and records a
`native.recovery.transition` event (`awaiting_result_finalization`) for
each released run.
- Only executor leases are released, because only the executor claim
writes the controller identity together with the lease. Finalizer
(`native-finalizer:`) and cleanup (`native-cleanup:`) claims keep an
earlier executor's identity, so they are never released this way and
expire on their own short leases. A finalization-resume token
(`:resume:`) on a result row always belongs to the executor that adopted
it, because a pending resume claim is taken only on a row without a
result.
- Also not released: a live owner, an owner without a recorded process,
a lease of the current boot, a run this process is executing, and remote
workspaces (`nativeWorkspaceSync` or `remoteWorkspace`), which keep
their fenced lease.
- The compare-and-set does not compare the stored expiry. Postgres
stores microseconds that a JavaScript `Date` drops, and an exact-expiry
comparison silently skipped the real lease in the live reproduction.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md`: documents the rule.

## Verification

- Red then green on embedded Postgres
(`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts`):
- A hard kill with a dead controller's executor lease (first claim,
restart claim, or resumed claim) now finalizes on the next startup: run
`succeeded`, finalization `committed`, task `done`, one result, one run,
no provider dispatch. These tests failed before the fix with `status:
running`.
- A lease expiry stored with microsecond precision is released. This
test failed against the first version of the fix and reproduces the live
miss.
- A live controller of another boot keeps its lease, and so does a lease
of the current boot.
- A live claimant's finalizer or cleanup lease is kept when the recorded
earlier executor is dead.
- `npx vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-native-restart-suspension.test.ts`: 20 passed.
- Related suites pass: `native-session-resumption`,
`native-runner-restart-recovery.integration`,
`native-run-projection-work`, `live-recovery-work`. One
`live-recovery-work` legacy case timed out once under load and passed
when run again by itself.
- Live, local: `tests/restart-chaos/main.ts --workloads C1 --triggers
result --faults K1 --rc06-masked`. The failing case above came from such
a wave. I started its kept database and confirmed the stored lease state
and the compare-and-set miss. Against that same database, the fixed
release expires the stuck executor lease. Two later waves (12 tasks,
`--triggers result`) passed every task. Run events were not kept for
passing tasks, so I cannot confirm that a kill landed in the narrow
pre-finalization window in those waves.

- Live proof on head `8971874654`: local ACPX Claude, workload A1, seed
7411, `--triggers result` (a local variant that fires on A1 2.5–3.5 s
after the run's result proposal), `--keep`. The run passed 4 of 4 tasks.
In two tasks, K1 landed 1.5 s and 2.0 s after `run.result.accepted`. On
the next startup, each run recorded "Server restart released the
accepted native result of a stopped controller for finalization"
(`controller_process_dead`). Each finished `succeeded` about 1 s later,
with its task `done` and exactly one run per task (no extra provider
turn). Before this fix, the same shape stayed `running` until the
10-minute budget ran out (seeds 7411, 7422, and 7423 from the RC-33b
investigation in #19691).

## Risks

- Startup could take a lease from a finalizer that is still running.
Mitigations: the lease must belong to another boot, the controller
process must be proved stopped on this host (the same proof the existing
runner takeover uses), and the update matches the exact owner. Remote
workspaces are excluded. Multi-host deployments keep the existing
PID-liveness assumption that `claimNativeRestartRecoveries` already
makes.
- Low behavioral risk otherwise: finalization uses the existing
reconciler path, which #19591 already exercises after a graceful drain.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, run as an agent in
Claude Code with tool use (shell, file editing, local test execution,
live restart-chaos waves).

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 08f7ac03dc fix(recovery): keep a never-started task waiting through a temporary accounting hold (#19702)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Admission checks every wake. A short company accounting hold can
refuse new work after a control-plane restart.
> - When the hold refused a new task's assignment wake, stranded-work
recovery found the task with no run while the hold was still active. It
moved the task to `blocked` with a board recovery comment.
> - A `blocked` task leaves the stranded-assignment sweep, so nothing
woke it after the hold cleared. The task stayed `blocked` with no run,
no interruption and no Retry.
> - The hold was temporary. Tasks created a few seconds later (after the
sweep) started normally once accounting settled.
> - This pull request keeps a never-started task `todo` while a
temporary budget hold lasts. The existing assigned-todo liveness
dispatch then admits it once the hold clears. The task shows the hold it
waits for.
> - The benefit is that a restart no longer silently drops new tasks
created during the accounting settle window.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In a restart-chaos storm on master `06bbcea12f`, three new tasks were
created while the company accounting hold was active. Each assignment
wake got 409 "Company cannot start work while completed runs await
accounting." (or "...native run recovers its unfinished accounting.").
One task rested `blocked` with 0 runs, interruption `null` and
`canRetry=false`. The other two ran later.

**Root cause**
`reconcileStrandedAssignedIssues`
(`server/src/services/recovery/service.ts`, the
`readInvocationBudgetBlock` branch near line 4826) escalates any
assigned task to `blocked` when a budget block exists. It does this
before the assigned-todo no-run branch, which already skips a
budget-blocked task and dispatches it later. So a task that never
started was treated as failed recovery work. The refused wake itself is
stored as a `skipped` `budget.blocked` diagnostic, which is correct; the
escalation removed the only path that re-admits it.

**Expected behavior**
A wake refused by a temporary admission hold waits and is admitted once
the hold clears, with one run. A real hard stop is still a board
decision. Removed assignees and cancelled tasks still do not wake.

**Steps to reproduce**
Create a company with a hard-stop budget and a completed run that has
`cost_accounting_pending = true`. Assign a new `todo` task. The wake
gets 409. Run the stranded-assignment sweep. Before this change the task
becomes `blocked` and never runs.

Related: #19700 bounds the accounting hold itself. This PR is
independent: it handles what happens to a task whose first wake the hold
refused.

## What Changed

- Stranded-work recovery skips a `todo` task with no run while a
temporary budget hold blocks admission. It does not escalate it to
`blocked`. The existing assigned-todo liveness dispatch admits the task
once the hold clears.
- A hard stop (spend at the limit, or blocked unpriced usage) keeps the
existing board escalation. Recovery checks this with the read-only
`policyBlocks` for the policies of the blocking scope. It does not
change budget hold semantics.
- The task interruption projection now covers a `todo` task with no run
whose latest wake was refused with `budget.blocked`. It shows "Waiting
for the budget to allow new work. The task starts automatically when it
does." with no Retry. A budget pause shows the existing "budget" user
action.
- The no-run projection applies the same person-owned gates as the
run-backed projection: a budget pause shows the "budget" action, and an
ordinary agent, project, company or task pause shows "resume". Only an
accounting hold shows the automatic-start text.
- `ExecutionBlockerNotice` shows that wait text for a `working`
presentation that carries a wait reason.
- `doc/execution-semantics.md` records the rule.

## Verification

- New embedded-Postgres regression
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-refused-assignment-wake.test.ts`:
- hold active, new task assigned, wake refused (409, `skipped`
`budget.blocked`), two recovery sweeps: the task stays `todo` with no
run and shows the wait reason. Before the fix this failed with `expected
'blocked' to be 'todo'` (the CHA-9 shape).
- hold cleared, two sweeps: exactly one provider turn starts, from
`issue.assigned_todo_liveness_dispatch`, and the task finishes. A later
sweep does not start another turn.
- counter-tests: a terminated assignee and a cancelled task get no run
after the hold clears.
- Existing `creates a board recovery action for budget-blocked assigned
work` (real hard stop) still passes unchanged.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/heartbeat-refused-assignment-wake.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
src/services/task-interruption-presentation.test.ts
src/__tests__/heartbeat-issue-liveness-escalation.test.ts` (server) and
`src/components/ExecutionBlockerNotice.test.tsx` (ui).
- Server typecheck and `pnpm check:token-gates`.
- Live restart-chaos storm (local, codex/claude/opencode, 6 in flight,
K2 every 3-4 minutes for 20 minutes, no RC-06 mask), revision
e38bb5c8f7: 17 tasks, 10 pass.
- Two new tasks (CHA-16, CHA-17) were created while the company
accounting hold was active. Their assignment wakes got 409 "Company
cannot start work while completed runs await accounting." Both stayed
`todo` (not `blocked`) and showed `state: working`, `canRetry: false`,
`retryWait.reason: budget.blocked`, "Waiting for the budget to allow new
work. The task starts automatically when it does." No task rested
`blocked` with 0 runs.
- The hold itself never cleared in this wave (`pendingRunCount: 1` at
wave end), so these two tasks did not start before their deadline. That
stuck hold is the separate accounting-closure defect that #19700 bounds.
The other 5 failures (`R3:retry_no_new_run:B5`) are Retries refused by
the same stuck hold. The re-admission after the hold clears is proved by
the embedded-Postgres regression above.

## Risks

- Low. The change narrows one escalation to tasks that never started,
under a budget block that is not a hard stop. Those tasks now stay
`todo` and are re-checked by the existing 30-second stranded-assignment
sweep, which already re-checks every admission gate.
- The hard-stop check reads the blocking scope's active policies once
per budget-blocked never-started task in a sweep. It runs only while a
hold is active.
- The interruption projection adds one indexed read (company + payload
issue id) for `todo` tasks in the batch.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 8a34c1b62c fix(budgets): bound the accounting hold so one missing receipt cannot wedge a company (#19700)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Pending run accounting holds new company work until it settles
(#19497, #19606, #19673)
> - A run settles only with closure evidence: a verified local stop, or
a terminated remote sandbox. Without that evidence it held the whole
company forever. In restart-chaos storm 4, a single run held 35 tasks
for hours
> - Two more shapes kept the hold alive. A run whose result had already
been accepted never counted as closed. A recovery that already owned its
held reservation was refused by other tasks' recovering accounting, so
concurrent recoveries waited on each other
> - This pull request bounds the hold, closes accepted-result runs on a
verified stop, and lets an owned recovery finish
> - The benefit is that no single missing receipt can wedge a company,
while genuinely unknown spend still surfaces under the blocking policy

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Follow-up to #19497, #19606 and #19673.

**What happened?**
- Storm 4: run `f879895f` timed out in `session.open`. Its local stop
was never verified (its process identity is still recorded), recovery
ended in `terminal_failure`, and its receipt never became ready. From
then on, every new-work wake got 409 "New work must wait while a native
run recovers its unfinished accounting". That was 93 refusals, 35
blocked tasks, and no Retry.
- Storm 4: run `6d3c76bf` was resuming as the recovery owner with its
own held reservation. `reserveRunBudget` refused it because other tasks'
runs were recovering.
- Wave s7401: run `0a3a849d` failed after its result was accepted, with
a verified local stop. It had 10 receipts across 2 sources, all
incomplete with 0 tokens. It stayed "completed runs await accounting"
because closure only covered coordinators in terminal failure with no
result.

**What did you expect?**
A run without closure evidence holds new work only for a bounded time,
then settles visibly. An accepted-result run with a verified stop closes
like a terminal failure. A recovery that already owns admitted work can
finish.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Restart the control plane during several native turns so that one
run's local stop is never verified.
2. Observe the run stay "recovering" and every new wake refused
indefinitely.

## What Changed

- `run-cost-accounting.ts`:
- A coordinator counts as settled when it ended in terminal failure
without a result, or when it has an accepted result. The verified-stop
and remote-termination closures use that rule, which covers the s7401
shape.
- A native run whose provider never started settles at once, like a
pre-provider failure, with no charge and its reservation released. Its
recovery has settled, no usage receipt was ever journaled (a provider
turn journals one as soon as it starts), and its local process never
launched or was verified stopped (wave s7403, run 3c1d7b70,
`session.open` timeout).
- New bound `ACCOUNTING_CLOSURE_TIMEOUT_MS`: the remote runner reconnect
grace (7 minutes) plus 3 minutes. A terminal native run with a settled
coordinator and no closure evidence settles at the bound:
- its known usage is recorded as unpriced (or estimated from the rate
card), with provenance evidence "closure evidence never arrived…";
    - it is marked `accountingClosureTimedOut`;
- a `cost.accounting_closure_timed_out` activity entry names the run.
- The reconciler selects these runs, and `readCostAccountingWork`
schedules a wake at the bound.
- `budget-exposure.ts`: a timed-out closure's final charge is exempt
from none of the unpriced-block exemptions. Under the `block` policy it
raises the normal budget notice ("recorded usage has no reliable price")
instead of a silent hold.
- `budgets.ts`, `budget-reservations.ts`,
`run-dispatch/adapters/postgres.ts`: when a validated recovery owner
continues admitted work, admission and both dispatch rechecks apply only
hard stops and pauses. Pending and recovering accounting holds still
gate new work.
- `doc/SPEC-implementation.md`: documents the bound, the accepted-result
closure and the provenance.

## Verification

- `closed-native-receipt-accounting.test.ts` (embedded Postgres). All of
these fail on master and pass here:
- s7401 shape (accepted result, verified stop, all receipts incomplete
with 0 tokens): settles and clears admission.
- A run without closure evidence: held before the bound with a scheduled
wake, then settled with the "closure evidence never arrived" provenance,
the `accountingClosureTimedOut` flag and an activity entry. Admission
clears under `allow`.
- Storm 4 `f879895f` shape (terminal failure, recorded process identity,
no stop event): held, then released after the bound.
  - The blocking policy still blocks on a timed-out closure.
- s7403 shape (no receipts, model unknown): a run whose process never
launched, or was verified stopped, settles at once with no charge and
its reservation released. With an unverified process it waits for the
bound.
- Storm 4 `6d3c76bf` shape: a recovery owner with its held reservation
reserves past another task's recovering accounting, while new work for
another task still waits.
- Existing suites pass locally: budget-enforcement-scoping,
budget-enforcement-worker, native-stop-accounting, cost-data-quality,
heartbeat-cost-accounting, run-cost-accounting, budgets-service. Server
typecheck passes.
- The other storm 4 terminal-failure runs (`2e477ae9`, `e4d2e14d`,
`6d3c76bf`, `7d21a44c`, `4bc49df0`, `1d85fbd9`) were already settled by
#19673 in that database (`cost_accounting_pending=false`) and were not
holding admission. `f879895f` alone held it.

## Risks

- After the bound, a run whose provider might still be running settles
as unpriced. Under the `block` policy that raises a hard-stop budget
notice, by design. Under `allow`, work continues and a late receipt
still reconciles.
- A recovery owner skips accounting holds, so concurrent recoveries can
spend while other tasks' accounting is unknown. Hard stops still apply,
consistent with best-effort budget enforcement.

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file editing, embedded Postgres tests).

18be7ac696 fix(server): retire idle native sessions before tenant sleep (#18988)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage AI agents and their work.
> - Native agents can retain a warm session between useful turns.
> - That owner must close and save its files before the tenant can
sleep.
> - A failed close must keep the owner visible until retirement
succeeds.
> - This PR prepares idle resources under the exact current admission
hold, then takes a fresh safety snapshot.
> - Busy turns, uncertain closure and changed holds still prevent sleep.
> - CI also exposed a chat authorization race. The fix repeats full
authorization after the exact delivery commits.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #18639 for local work and incoming wake boundaries. Related #18829
covers suspension receipts after admission.

**What happened?**

Idle preflight did not retire warm Native owners. Three failed-close
paths could forget an owner without proving that its provider stopped.
CI also found a false chat rejection when a delivery changed from
processing to processed between two validation reads.

**Expected behavior**

Retire only idle owners under the exact bounded hold. Wait for closure
and file collection. Retain failed owners. Scan safety after
preparation. Keep diagnostic reads passive. A newly committed chat
delivery must pass the full current authorization checks before
attestation succeeds.

**Steps to reproduce**

Finish a warm Native turn. Start an idle drain and request safety with
its owner ID. Delay or reject provider closure, or replace the hold
during preparation or scanning. The report must keep the instance awake.
For the chat race, commit the exact delivery between the first binding
read and its fallback read.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Current head `7f6f02b611dcf5a9a2b05173a44e9631eaf78058` normally
integrates actual master `1aa0c3639714f4976cfa56f95aae6e2b7d1235ac`. The
merge preserves every unrelated master path. Fresh exact-head CI and
complete review remain required.

## What Changed

- Retain uncertain Native owners after failed restart, idle timeout and
failed-turn closure.
- Prepare Native retirement through the existing heartbeat facade. Reuse
provider closure and stopped-file collection.
- Track preparation under the exact idle owner and expiry. Reject new
activity, changed holds and expired holds before and after awaited work.
- Take the final durable and local safety snapshot after preparation.
Keep diagnostic inspection passive.
- Cover ephemeral workspace retirement and useful next use, supported
plugin drain and SDK persistence, busy owners, failed closure and hold
replacement.
- Keep dedicated recovery storage explicit. Use the same validated
options for support and storage. Probe-free helpers retain the original
implementation bodies and preserve default callers.
- Complete the Native fixture through real retirement and budget
evaluation. Keep its rejection, file, credential, accounting and strict
NONE assertions.
- Repeat the complete chat authorization once if the fallback sees the
exact batch now processed. Preserve owner locks, principal and binding
checks, denial handling and the original retry deadline.

## Verification

- The support-mode regression reproduces one failure with four passes
under the old policy, then passes all five controls. It retains prior
allocation and cleanup cases. The explicit mode does not probe embedded
PostgreSQL or use an admin alias.
- The deterministic chat race baseline reproduces two authorized
failures with all four current-authority denial controls passing. Both
Slack and Discord use real PostgreSQL and the real authorization
function. The negative setup commits before the attestation transaction;
it does not claim to revoke access through a row lock.
- The product fix passes normal own App declaration emission with no
public declaration changes, plus both current normal owning compiler
programs (399 and 611 roots). The same six controls pass after the fix.
The full original file plus these controls passes all 30 tests with no
skips.
- The original controlled Native continuation passes: one test, no
failures or skips, 1.718 seconds in its body and 23.138 seconds in its
launcher. The original 40-second case and 180-second outer bounds are
unchanged. It verifies held closure, strict NONE, an ordinary authorized
comment, saved session/files, useful output, encrypted credentials,
accepted results and settled accounting. All ten observed processes and
groups close; worker connections and listeners reach zero. A separate
post-owner audit finds zero sessions; the successful owned database is
normally removed.
- Earlier preparation, HTTP, lifecycle, workspace and plugin controls
remain source-specific evidence. They are not a claim that every
final-tree test ran locally.
- The original CI assertion log is retained. The controlled race proves
a possible cause; the original CI SQL schedule was not captured. Two
other jobs lost their self-hosted runners and provided no test verdict.
Earlier asset timeouts, readiness failures and unexplained later
recovery remain separately recorded. No timeout, failure predicate or
authority check was weakened.

Focused public commands:

```sh
pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/idle-sleep-preparation.test.ts server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-reviewed-chat-binding.integration.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 --no-file-parallelism
```

Local database qualification uses fresh owned test databases on existing
PostgreSQL, bounded pools and one worker. The local allocation adapter
changes only database allocation for this test module; it runs normal
migrations and client cleanup. It is not part of the published source.
No new cluster is created.

Local acceptance measured the `0a69efa6` integration with the same
committed authorization bytes. The later normal master merge adds
startup-timeout classification and recovery changes. Those paths are
outside the controlled healthy-backend witness; retirement and
authorization hunks are preserved. Exact-head remote CI at
`7f6f02b611dcf5a9a2b05173a44e9631eaf78058` has completed with 56
successful contexts and four skips. The complete current Greptile
summary is5/5 with no new actionable findings; all review threads are
resolved. Ponytail’s current turn is explicitly paused without a
current-head verdict; earlier actual findings are fixed and accounted
for. No whole final-tree local repository build/test run, live-provider
restore or deployed suspension is claimed.

Actual master subsequently advanced to
`d5c4f7dd02d408a261cedd9a1926b9900a4aedc4`. Its local normal-merge
projection with this reviewed head preserves all20 owned paths and every
unrelated master blob and mode. Current Runner TypeScript, App
declarations and their full owning compiler programs pass. Focused
Native cleanup and warm-continuation composition checks are being
completed before merge; the new upstream suspension-retry behavior is
not inferred from the older controlled-backend witness. The remote PR
head remains unchanged.

## Risks

- Privileged idle preparation can close idle warm Native sessions. It
requires the exact current hold.
- Failed closure retains its owner and can keep the tenant awake until
normal retry succeeds.
- A changed hold cannot authorize sleep. Started cleanup remains tracked
until it settles.
- The chat repair can perform one extra full authorization read. It
keeps the existing deadline and does not grant authority from the
fallback query.
- Unsupported resources and active work retain their existing blockers.
This PR does not certify every transport, plugin or deployed host.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` produced the delegated changes and verification.
OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, performed managing review and integration.
Both used repository tools and code execution. The coordinator's exact
backend snapshot and context-window limits were not exposed.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 a5fe5deebe fix(environments): reclaim sandboxes left by a restart during acquire or teardown (#19696)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Remote agent runs execute in provider sandboxes (for example
Daytona) that Paperclip creates and must clean up
> - Before each provider create, Paperclip saves a durable creation
intent (`sandbox_creation_operations`). Recovery uses it to find and
destroy a sandbox whose lease was never committed
> - Recovery waited 30 minutes after creation before it checked an
intent, because a live server could still be waiting for the provider
> - After a restart, the creating server is gone, but the intent still
waited the full 30 minutes. A short-lived or redeployed instance never
reclaimed those sandboxes
> - The teardown that follows has the same problem: a teardown claim
fences other sweeps for 15 minutes, and a restart during the claim kept
the sandbox alive until the fence expired
> - This pull request saves the server process identity with each intent
and each teardown claim, and ends the wait when same-host proof shows
that process exited
> - The benefit is that a restart during sandbox acquire or teardown no
longer leaves paid provider sandboxes behind

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
A control-plane restart during Daytona sandbox acquire left the created
sandbox without an `environment_leases` row. In one restart chaos wave,
6 creation intents stayed `pending` with `next_attempt_at` = creation +
30 minutes. The wave ended (and its environment was deleted) before that
time, so 4 sandboxes stayed `stopped` in Daytona. Only Daytona's own
auto-delete would remove them. Two of the runs did not exist in
`heartbeat_runs` because they were non-run acquires; their intents still
had the run id.

**Expected behavior**
After a restart, each sandbox that this instance and company created,
with no committed lease and no live creator, is found by its exact
creation name and labels and destroyed through the plugin, after the
existing ownership checks. Sandboxes from another instance, another
host, or a live server stay untouched. Nothing acts org-wide.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Start a Daytona-backed run.
2. Kill the server (SIGKILL) after the creation intent commits and
before the lease commits.
3. Restart the server. On master, the intent stays `pending` for 30
minutes and the sandbox stays in Daytona.
4. The regression tests in
`server/src/__tests__/sandbox-creation-operations.test.ts` reproduce
this with the controlled provider fixture.

Refs #18357 (added the durable creation intent this change completes).

**Paperclip version or commit**
master 07a548073a (live proof at 8d525dba7d + this change,
content-matched to the runner image)

## What Changed

- New `server/src/services/controller-process-identity.ts`: records the
server boot id, PID, a PID-space hash and the process start time. The
PID-space hash covers the hostname, the kernel boot id and the PID
namespace on Linux (the hostname and boot time elsewhere), so containers
that share a hostname but not a PID namespace never judge each other. It
proves that a recorded process exited only in the same PID space: the
PID is gone, or the PID is live with a definitely different start time.
Another PID space, an unreadable identity, an unidentified record, or
this server never counts as exited.
- `sandbox-creation-operations.ts`: each creation intent stores the
creating process and its settle deadline. Each recovery pass first moves
intents whose creator exited to "due now". If the early lookup finds no
sandbox before the settle deadline, the intent stays `pending` and
retries. It does not become manual reconciliation, because the provider
can still materialize an aborted request.
- `heartbeat/recovery.ts`: each pending-cleanup teardown claim stores
the claiming process, bound to its claim attempt id. Before the sweep
reads due leases, it ends the 15-minute fence of a claim whose claimer
exited. A newer claim from another path (workspace repair, export retry)
that kept an older record has a different attempt id, so it is never
released.
- Both recovery passes page through candidates with a stable id cursor.
Live, foreign or unidentified owners therefore cannot hide an abandoned
record behind one page.
- This covers every `createOwnedSandbox` caller, including non-task
probe and qualification acquires. Their intents have no issue and a
generated run id, which is why their run ids are missing from
`heartbeat_runs`.
- Recovery uses only the existing paths: exact
`paperclip-create-<operation id>` name and label inspection in the
plugin, `pending_cleanup` lease, and plugin teardown. No org-wide
listing or deletion was added.

## Verification

- Red, then green (controlled provider fixture, real embedded
PostgreSQL):
- `sandbox-creation-operations.test.ts` → "after the creating server
exits mid-acquire". Before the fix, the exited-creator case left no
cleanup lease. After the fix, the next sweep creates the
`pending_cleanup` lease and the teardown destroys the sandbox.
Counter-tests: a creation owned by this live server, another live
process, another host, or a committed lease is not inspected or
destroyed. An early "not found" keeps the intent pending, and a later
sweep still finds a late allocation.
- `heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep.test.ts` → "a teardown claim whose
server stopped mid-attempt". Before the fix, a lost claim blocked the
teardown. After the fix, it retries now. Counter-tests: claims from this
live server, another host, or without an identity keep their fence.
- Review regressions: "keeps the fence of a newer claim that kept an
earlier attempt's server record" and "pages past more fenced claims than
one sweep page" fail on the previous commit and pass now. "pages past
more unprovable creations than one page" guards the creation-side
cursor; the old unordered page happened to include the row, so it was
not red.
- After the review changes, `sandbox-creation-operations`,
`heartbeat-pending-cleanup-sweep`, `live-recovery-work` and
`environment-cleanup-work` pass (155 tests), and `tsc --noEmit` for
`server` passes.
- Related suites pass: sandbox-creation-operations (28),
environment-cleanup-work, task-creation-recovery,
native-startup-cleanup-recovery, sandbox-orphan-cleanup-spool,
plugin-warm-tasks, idle-completed-history (187 total), and the
pending-cleanup sweep suite. `tsc --noEmit` for `server` passes.
- Live Daytona restart chaos wave `w-20261107T001609-s11` (codex, A1,
K2+K4, concurrency 2, RC-06 masked, image `sha256:2767e91c…`, first fix
only): 4/4 tasks pass, all restart-crossing, R6 pass for every task,
`orphanSandboxes: []`. The server log and database show two creation
intents killed by K4 being reconciled right after restart and destroyed
through Paperclip. A third reclaimed sandbox lost its teardown claim to
the next K4 kill in the same second, so its 15-minute fence blocked the
environment delete. The second commit fixes that.
- Live Daytona wave `w-20261107T012048-s11`, same plan, both commits:
**4/4 pass, all restart-crossing, R6 pass for every task,
`orphanSandboxes: []`, no held leases.** The environment delete through
Paperclip succeeded with `remainingSandboxes: []`. One restart-time
sweep destroyed one sandbox through the plugin.

## Risks

- Same-host proof relies on PID liveness and process start time, as
native controller takeover already does. A false "exited" result is
limited to recovery running early. The plugin still checks exact name
and labels before any delete. An early not-found result stays pending.
- Multi-host deployments sharing one database keep the old deadlines,
because a different PID space is never judged. A redeploy into a new
host or PID namespace also keeps the old deadlines (fail closed).
- The live waves ran before the review commits. The review commits only
narrow when a record is judged, and they add paging.
- Intents and claims written before this change have no process
identity, so they keep the old deadlines.
- No schema change. The new fields live in existing JSON metadata.

DottaandPaperclip d5c4f7dd02 fix: preserve shared Git sources during online workspace migration (#19688)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip preserves the work produced by its agents.
> - Remote workspace migration must preserve legacy Git history and
local edits.
> - Linked checkouts can share administration and objects with other
tasks.
> - A task lock alone cannot exclude writers of a shared or borrowed
store.
> - The online source owner must derive and retain the full physical
ownership closure.
> - This change reuses task, project, lifecycle and finalizer locks for
that closure.
> - Idle legacy Git work can then migrate while unrelated remote turns
continue.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #19642.

**What happened?**

Online migration keeps legacy Git sources blocked because several task
checkouts can share a project base or a private Git cache. A read-only
source observation found 160 pending Git records, 120 distinct paths and
nine common stores. Its largest project cohort contained 126 records and
110 task owners. An ordinary-directory fence cannot preserve these
sources by itself.

**Expected behavior**

Derive the physical source owners from stable Git metadata. Hold their
existing source and lifecycle keys through publication. Retain all
history and recovery obligations. Reject foreign aliases, unknown stores
and changed sources. Let unrelated object-backed work continue.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Create a managed project checkout and linked task worktrees.
2. Keep a settled prepared recovery source on a sibling task.
3. Keep unrelated remote work running.
4. Request an online import of an idle leaf checkout.
5. The existing owner keeps the shared source blocked.

**Paperclip version or commit**

This branch builds on merged #19642 (`7ac99718a4`) and fresh master
`fb3cf1a072`. It adds the Git closure. It does not add a writers-stopped
shortcut.

**Deployment mode**

Hosted native Runner with remote workspace storage. Local qualification
uses owned synthetic Git repositories, disposable PostgreSQL databases
and the actual archive and storage owners.

## What Changed

- Read bounded stable Git pointers, common-directory metadata and local
alternates. Derive the complete physical source ownership cohort.
Preserve all object stores.
- Retain common and borrowed store owners in preparation, lifecycle,
runtime, expiration and actual reopen paths. Keep company boundaries and
the existing 128-key bound.
- Hold exact sibling native recovery proofs under their existing
physical finalizer keys. Recheck descriptors, allocations, recovery
actions and source identities before capture and publication. Preserve
original states and warnings.
- Require leaf-first nested imports. Reuse the existing immutable child
download, restore and source comparison before parent exclusion.
- Bind the self-contained archive owner to the held Git namespaces. Keep
its three walks, history normalization, fsck, bytes and digest format.
Reject bare, detached, network, unknown or changed Git storage.
- Check both foreign path fields. Keep foreign metadata private.
Document the proof, bounds, source observation and remaining eligibility
limits.

## Verification

- Final revision `2934e41c923b93e16508b978c849b747c86be645`: all checks
are terminal, with 56 successful and four skipped, zero failures and
zero pending. The [required CI
aggregate](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42326464408/job/128266279210)
passed. Build, types, all server/Runner/serialized suites, end-to-end
aggregate and Snyk passed. [Fresh exact-head Greptile
review](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/19688#issuecomment-6699760104)
is 5/5 with no open threads. GitHub reports MERGEABLE and CLEAN.

- Review then found two correctness gaps: an ordinary managed directory
inside an unrelated host repository was blocked, and a Git parent could
miss a completed nested operation after its child snapshot became
missing or deleted. Three actual-owner regressions reproduced both gaps
in 9.70 seconds. The corrected owner passes 12 focused cases in 17.08
seconds. It imports and restores only the ordinary root bytes, preserves
the outer repository, rejects both missing/deleted child receipts before
a parent journal, and retains valid/changed child coverage and
private-cache contention. Its wrapper exited 0 and cleanup completed.
The first bootstrap attempt failed before tests ran because the host
exhausted its 32 shared-memory segment limit; no shared services were
stopped and no pass is claimed for that attempt. The final qualified
source/test type graph, module boundaries and diff checks pass.
- Receipt scans keep canonical path resolution. A lexical SQL prefix can
omit children reached through symlinked ancestors. The observed full
metadata closure completed in 1.17 seconds; no measured bottleneck
justifies weakening that alias proof. Writer admission still rejects
uncertain Git ownership before mutation. Expiration returns its typed
skip, and reopen returns its structured failure. Runtime and lifecycle
do not bypass an unknown source. No broad error-contract change was
added.

- Full CI at `720104ea975e` exposed five existing boundary cases across
three server shards. Four exact cases reproduced locally as failures in
25.98 seconds. Reopen now preserves its structured failure when source
inspection rejects the path, without reconstructing it. Runtime
recognizes only the exact regular ignore-only `.git/info/exclude`
fragment; migration still rejects that fragment. The original
arbitrary-path and file-URL import/delete-host/resume fixtures keep both
supported input forms and use the genuine offline setup path after their
sole writer finishes. The production mode gate is unchanged. A new
real-owner control proves the offline flag still rejects a running
legacy database writer.
- The final focused run passed all ten cases across four suites in 22.75
seconds, including all five CI failures, invalid-pointer admission,
fragment rejection, offline writer exclusion and actual nested reopen
lock ordering. Its wrapper exited 0 and cleanup completed. The known
invalid-pointer case remains fail-closed; the separate unexpected-I/O
diagnostic retains safe error metadata without command text or
credentials. Existing Git stderr redaction coverage remains intact. The
final metadata reader suite passed 20 cases in 2.68 seconds. The
qualified server/test source type graph, module boundaries and diff
checks pass. No production assertions or timeout defaults were weakened.
Fresh CI and review are required for the repair revision.

- A later review found that the ordinary early return still used only
one foreign path field. The actual ordinary providerRef-only regression
failed as incorrectly eligible. One source-path owner now enumerates
both local locators for company/foreign ordinary and Git scans, layout
checks, early admission, lifecycle/reopen/runtime and
expiration/move/preparation retention. Capture and display keep their
original preferred path. The actual owner canary passed 49 cases across
two suites in 109.15 seconds. It covers
cwd-only/ref-only/different/symlink locators, same-company mismatches,
foreign owners, lifecycle ordering, Git/recovery imports and
expiration/reopen. Three selected-locator fallback cases also failed
before their guard; the final eight-case control passed in 31.05
seconds, including the configured alias and valid import/private-child
controls. All wrappers exited 0 and completed cleanup. The
metadata/locator suite passed 19 cases. The final source/test type
graph, module boundaries and diff checks pass.

- Review found two P1 gaps. Both configured-directory symlink cases
failed before canonicalization. The actual parent import lost an
already-imported child's unique private cache and failed its archive
fence instead of retaining that owner. The corrected real-owner canary
passed four cases in 20.78 seconds: configured symlink runtime
provisioning, private-cache contention before the parent journal,
successful parent publication after release, and unchanged/changed child
coverage. The metadata suite passed 15 cases in 4.14 seconds. Both
wrappers exited 0 and cleanup completed.
- A fresh source read-only observation found 160 pending Git records and
nine common stores. An additional exact receipt query found 1,243
completed migration receipts and 557 nested source paths under pending
Git roots. All 126 records in the largest project were present in the
captured Git metadata set. For all 110 present candidate workspace
records, the derived closure fits the unchanged 128-key cap. The worst
case needs 110 issue keys and one project key, with 17 keys of headroom.
Its 173 imported children introduce no physical issue owner outside
those 110 logical task owners. This checks the observed key bound only.
It does not claim migration eligibility or a coherent snapshot.
- The initial stacked CI did not run four Runner test lanes: trusted
master passed new --package-lane/--native-server options to the old base
lane script. The branch is now rebased onto actual merged master and
retargeted before synchronization. It includes the canonical current
lane parser without an unrelated Runner patch. Fresh new-head CI is
required.

- The actual importer/source owner run passed 36 cases across three
suites in 187.75 seconds. It covers sibling prepared recovery, unrelated
running remote work, common-cache contention, changed
coordinator/allocation/path state during upload, exact nested coverage,
dirty unpushed work, and existing expiration/reopen owners. Wrapper exit
0 and cleanup completed.
- A separate previously hanging lifecycle-worker restore passed in 17.33
seconds with the unchanged 15-second test-body limit. An earlier run
timed out in three expiration/reopen cases and blocked cleanup; its
wrapper later exited 1. These failures remain recorded. They are not
counted as passes.
- Two boundary controls first failed: a foreign providerRef-only alias
was incorrectly eligible, and actual reopen did not admit its distinct
cache owner at the initial source boundary. The narrow guards now
inspect both foreign locators and derive physical Git keys before the
raw lifecycle transaction. The foreign alias and existing real nested
reopen contention passed. The private-cache control first retained
contradictory recorded source provenance and stayed fail-closed after
release. The corrected present legacy-worktree fixture passed in 12.61
seconds. These failed attempts remain recorded; they are not passes.
- The metadata reader and serialized/local archive controls use actual
Git repositories. They compare archive bytes and digests, remove every
original source, restore staged and unstaged work, and run fsck. The
metadata reader passed 13 cases in 2.85 seconds. The local/serialized
archive controls passed nine cases in 9.27 seconds. All processes exited
0. An additional actual importer control changed a relative commondir
pointer to the absolute name of the same store during upload.
Publication was rejected, the uploaded journal remained available, and
original files stayed intact (one case, 5.86 seconds; wrapper exit 0 and
cleanup complete).
- The final rebased full local server/test type graph passes with
db/shared/Runner source aliases because reused dependency declarations
predate new master exports. The first rebased attempt reported those
stale declaration fields/tables, and is not counted as a pass. Module
boundaries and diff checks pass. Standard package builds, types and
broad regression checks remain required in CI.
- No hosted import, admission hold, cancellation, provider mutation,
source filesystem write or shared-cache Git command was performed for
this change. The source observation is read-only and is not a locked
eligibility proof.

## Risks

- A missing writer owner could make physical source exclusion
incomplete. Existing mutation owners retain the same
company/task/project keys, and uncertain metadata fails closed.
- A project can contain a large cohort. Limits remain finite. A bound
failure keeps the source blocked.
- Bare, detached, unowned or network Git stores remain blocked online.
Missing archived sources retain their existing authenticated
reconstruction path.
- Exact recovery proofs preserve authority and obligations. They do not
infer provider termination or mark a prepared descriptor finalized.
- This change does not claim all observed Git records are immediately
eligible. Existing preparation, provider, recovery, runtime and
source-change blockers remain.

DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 d26372dc8a test(restart-chaos): add a result trigger and recovered-run comment-wake guards (#19689)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The restart chaos harness kills the control plane at chosen moments
and grades whether each task still finishes correctly
> - One wave lost a user's follow-up comment after a kill that landed
after the run accepted its result but before the run settled
> - No existing trigger aims a fault at that moment, so the case was
hard to reproduce on purpose
> - The recovery path that settles such a run had no regression test
that covers the saved comment
> - This pull request adds a `result` trigger to the harness and a
regression test for the recovery path
> - The benefit is that the harness can aim faults at the
result-accepted window, and a change that drops, repeats, or re-wakes a
saved comment fails a test

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
In a restart-chaos storm wave, a user posted a comment while a native
run was active. A hard kill (K1) landed after the run accepted its
result and before the run settled. The run settled `succeeded` and the
task stayed `done`, but no follow-up run read the comment.

**Steps to reproduce**
The original failure did not reproduce. Three targeted waves ran 12
tasks with K1 at comment time or in the new result window. Every
follow-up comment was consumed exactly once. The new regression test
also passes on current `master`. The test and the trigger guard the path
and do not claim a fix.

**Expected behavior**
A comment posted during a run is consumed exactly once after the run
ends, including when restart recovery settles the run.

## What Changed

- `tests/restart-chaos`: add `--triggers result` (C1 only). K1 fires 0–3
s after the run that received the follow-up proposes or accepts its
result (`run.result.proposed` or `run.result.accepted`). The fault fires
only while that run is still `running`: the observer checks the latest
sample and rereads the runs right before dispatch. A run that settled
during the delay, or a follow-up posted at rest, records a `result`
miss. Add poll-driven unit tests for these cases and a README row.
- `server/src/__tests__/native-run-projection-work.test.ts`: add
embedded Postgres tests in which background recovery, not the executor,
settles the run (projection, environment settlement, and
deferred-receipt workers), with a deferred user comment and an active
local lease left by the killed executor. The tests check:
- The comment is promoted into exactly one follow-up run, and a second
restart adds none.
- A comment the run already received as a same-turn steer is not woken
again. The other saved comment still is.
- A queue whose only comment was steered stays cancelled, and no
follow-up starts.
- A Retry click does not consume the comment a second time. A click that
observed the source is stale. A click that observed the follow-up joins
it.

## Verification

- `cd tests/restart-chaos && npx vitest run --config vitest.config.ts`
(96 tests pass)
- `cd server && npx vitest run
src/__tests__/native-run-projection-work.test.ts` (54 tests pass)
- Live, local, ACPX Claude, Codex and OpenCode: `node
cli/node_modules/tsx/dist/cli.mjs tests/restart-chaos/main.ts --env
local --workloads C1 --triggers comment --faults K1 --adapters
codex,claude,opencode --tasks 4 --concurrency 2 --rc06-masked` passed 4
of 4. Two waves with `--triggers result` consumed each follow-up exactly
once. One task in those waves found a separate defect: a kill 1.4 s
after the result commit left the run `running` behind the dead
controller's 20-minute finalization lease. A separate pull request fixes
that defect.

## Risks

- Low risk. These are test and harness changes only. No production code
changes.
- The `result` trigger depends on the observer's poll interval (about 3
s), so the exact kill point within the window varies.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, run as an agent in
Claude Code with tool use (shell, file editing, local test execution).
