DottaandPaperclip f0e12c8519 Add managed Slack setup with an independent own-app path (#15679)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Slack connects a person to an agent through an installed app and a
verified identity.
> - Independent installations must remain usable without Paperclip Cloud
or manager credentials.
> - Approved Cloud deployments can use Slack manager grants to create
and install each agent's app.
> - Both paths should share credential storage, identity checks,
recovery, and the existing runtime.
> - This pull request adds gated managed setup and keeps independent app
setup under Advanced.
> - It also makes ongoing connection settings and personal test messages
easier to use.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Slack setup, connection settings, tenant credential storage, and the
Cloud connector handoff.

**Problem or motivation**

Approved deployments need an installation flow without pasted
configuration tokens. Open-source users must retain their independent
Slack app flow. A connection manager also needs a simple way to check a
bot from Settings.

**Proposed solution**

Use the managed path when the instance is configured to support it.
Choose agent and Connect are the two visible stops. Continue starts
authorization or installation. Use your own app remains under Advanced
before creation. Save personal manager grants by company, Paperclip
user, Slack user, workspace, and manager app. Reuse only verified
identities for test messages. Unknown identities must complete a private
Slack connection challenge before linking and receiving the test DM.

**Alternatives considered**

A shared bot would change each agent's Slack identity. Requiring Slack
CLI or a hosted service for self-hosted users would remove independent
installation.

**Roadmap alignment**

This maintainer-requested change improves Connected Apps and
experimental Agent Chat. It adds provisioning and management controls to
the existing Slack runtime.

**Additional context**

The companion Cloud broker profile is a separate deployment
prerequisite. Managed setup remains gated. Existing-app adoption is
deferred.

## What Changed

- Extract Slack registration, provider requests, completion,
customer-owned setup, managed setup, and personal manager grants into
focused services. Preserve the compatibility facade and independent
removal cleanup.
- Add company-scoped manager grants and a registration reference through
an additive, idempotent migration after current master. Keep runtime
credentials separate from app-registration secrets.
- Add authenticated manager authorization, sealed handoff, serialized
refresh and revocation, app creation, managed installation, and
installer-bound OAuth fallback.
- Preserve creation intent, block automatic uncertain recreation, save
credentials before downstream checks, and validate app, workspace, bot,
scopes, and installer identity.
- Add the two-stop production wizard and ordered stories. Keep the
own-app, manual, existing-app, and legacy-draft paths.
- Simplify Settings. Open Slack configuration targets the saved app. The
test-message action has its own row. Remove the old manual-avatar
section, channel-message section, and broken permissions link.
- Add paginated account discovery and a private connection challenge for
unknown accounts. Expired invitations stop waiting and offer a new
private invitation. Save send receipts before provider dispatch and
preserve confirmed delivery when activity logging fails.
- Reinstall the saved managed app on explicit reconnect, replace revoked
credentials, and resume completion. Persist reconnect intent and
duplicate-request receipts without creating another app.
- Update provider browser tests, recovery tests, secret redaction, setup
documentation, and the agent prompt. Preserve current master's durable
verification scheduling.

## Verification

- Full workspace typecheck and repository build passed on `56d389d47a`.
The subsequent reconnect retry fix in `288364eada` also passed UI
typecheck and UI build.
- 114 focused Slack registration cases and 13 production managed-wizard
cases passed, including fresh-token reconnect, retry after installation
failure, and duplicate reconnect requests.
- All nine affected Slack browser cases passed against the production UI
and a disposable fixture server. They cover managed setup, automatic
setup, own-app selection, refresh, recovery, mobile behavior, and
connection settings.
- Eight focused real-database test-message cases passed. They cover a
private ownership challenge, saved grant reuse, account pagination,
revoked and conflicting links, workspace mismatch, disabled DMs, revoked
membership, audit failure, ambiguous dispatch, and secret canaries.
- UI token gates and the production Storybook build passed.
- Greptile reviewed exact head
`288364eada5d9c114fad991ff634612639d06672` at 5/5 with no actionable
findings or unresolved review threads.
- The full repository test suite and current-head CI are running. Their
final results will replace this line before merge.
- Earlier live feature previews created two bots in the authorized
Paperclip Slack workspace and reused one personal manager grant. Local
managed Continue created and installed a bot without a configuration
token or a separate Add to Slack action. Avatars, welcome DMs, signed
callbacks, and direct replies were observed. A Settings test DM also
arrived in the signed-in user's Slack account.
- Earlier staging thread qualification required manual publication
recovery for one bot. Current-head live qualification remains required
before enabling the production default. Fixture results do not establish
Slack approval behavior in other workspaces.

## Risks

- Personal manager tokens can create apps. They stay in scoped vault
entries. The manager client secret stays at the broker. Company,
actor/session, origin, and app identity checks apply throughout setup.
- The additive migration must also work on qualification instances that
applied earlier branch migrations. Table, column, index, and constraint
creation is idempotent.
- Creation and message timeouts can leave uncertain outcomes. Saved
request IDs prevent automatic duplicate dispatch.
- Unknown Slack identities must receive and complete their private
challenge while signed in. Account selection alone does not grant
Paperclip permissions. Existing revoked or conflicting links are not
overwritten.
- A development-only manager transport uses an explicitly configured
private credential file for local qualification. Production ignores this
transport; no manager credentials are bundled with open source.
- Managed rollout requires Slack approval, the companion broker
deployment, configured secrets, and final live qualification. Removing a
connection does not delete its Slack app.

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, code execution, and browser
tools. The session does not expose the exact serving model ID or

1b4c803816 fix(costs): preserve usage attribution and explain unavailable run costs (#15948)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The cost ledger records usage and controls agent budgets.
> - Some runs lose the selected model or API billing category before
their usage reaches the ledger.
> - The dashboard reports missing costs but does not identify the
affected runs or the available actions.
> - This pull request preserves usage attribution and adds a compact
view of cost gaps grouped by agent.
> - Operators can inspect runs, open agent settings, and record saved
costs without starting new agent work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #15634, #11938, #15879.

This follows the merged subscription reporting in #15634. The older
proposal in #11938 addresses part of ACP model attribution. This change
also rejects conflicting models across a turn, fixes credential-backed
billing capture, and explains cost gaps in the existing dashboard. The
Pi receipt recovery work in #15879 covers a separate adapter recovery
path. This PR preserves unresolved receipts and does not recover
provider usage or reprice past entries.

**What happened?**

ACP results use the requested model even when the runtime selects a
model. Native and OpenCode API runs can report unknown billing despite a
matching API credential. The dashboard shows notices without links to
the affected runs. These gaps make API and subscription totals harder to
interpret.

**Expected behavior**

Record the model selected by the runtime. Identify API billing only from
a matching credential. Keep costs unresolved when reliable usage or
pricing is absent. Show the affected agents and runs. Offer an
accounting retry only when saved evidence is ready.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run an ACP agent with its model left unset, or use a matching API
credential with a native or OpenCode agent.
2. Inspect the recorded model and billing category for the run.
3. Open Costs Overview for a period with unpriced usage or terminal runs
awaiting receipts.
4. Inspect the notice and try to find the affected run or the relevant
agent settings.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Current master at `657e71584a0`. The patch is rebased on that commit.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted server and local development. The cost detail tests use a
disposable PostgreSQL database.

## What Changed

- Preserve the runtime-selected ACP model in checkpoints and final
results. Conflicting models across one turn remain unpriced.
- Share credential-backed API billing checks across native and OpenCode
results. Keep unknown billing when the provider and credential do not
match.
- Add company-scoped cost detail and accounting retry endpoints. Board
viewers can read details but cannot retry. Agents and foreign companies
are denied.
- Limit each detail category to 25 entries. Use one consistent database
snapshot and sparse indexes matching the filters and sort order. Add the
unknown-billing count to the existing summary query.
- Replace the notice with an expandable count line. Group entries
alphabetically by agent. Show the saved blob icon, link each name to
configuration, and put run and retry links beside the date.
- Preserve estimate and unavailable-price labels on Providers and
Billers; keep retry confirmation after the resolved notice disappears.
- Fetch details only while expanded. Retain the last loaded details
after a refresh error. Retry saved accounting only; do not rerun the
agent.
- Add capture, database, authorization, UI, and Storybook coverage.
Update the implementation contract and cost reporting guide.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed after rebase.
- `pnpm build` and `pnpm build-storybook` passed after rebase.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` and `git diff --check` passed.
- 1,086 focused tests passed across 17 files. These cover ACP, native
and OpenCode capture, PostgreSQL reports, route authorization, OpenAPI,
Costs UI, and existing accounting regressions.
- Desktop and mobile browser checks passed during UI review. They cover
lazy expansion, alphabetical groups, loaded blob icons, configuration
and run links, keyboard retry, and layout overflow.
- `pnpm test:run` was attempted with command-scoped
`init.defaultBranch=master` for Git fixtures. It was stopped after a
native session recovery failure reproduced on unchanged base
`657e71584a0` (`archives a damaged prior epoch before completing guarded
same-task replacement with real runnerd`). An MCP upload case failed in
the broad run but passed in isolation on both the base and PR branch.
These local limitations do not affect the 1,086 passing focused tests.
- Current-head CI is green, including all unit test lanes, serialized
server suites, runner checks, typecheck, build, policy, and eight
browser shards. Apex re-review is 5/5 on `56de60effdb`; all four
original findings are addressed and every review thread is resolved.
- PostgreSQL applies migration `0333` in the integration fixtures.
EXPLAIN ANALYZE on the production detail statements uses the new sparse
indexes behind 5,000 healthy records in each table.
- Ten provider/biller card cases cover missing and estimated prices; the
retry test covers row removal and notice unmount. A live Storybook
browser check verifies the confirmation and updated count.
- Run `pnpm storybook`. Open **Costs / Subscriptions / Cost Data Quality
Details** to inspect the production page with representative fixtures.

## Risks

- Model and billing metadata change for future runs. Estimates still
require complete usage and a supported price. No past cost amount is
rewritten.
- A missing final receipt remains unresolved for budget checks. The
display changes after fifteen minutes; that time limit never authorizes
settlement.
- Accounting retry is a write action. It retains the existing company
checks, receipt fences, idempotency, and audit logging.
- Detail reads are bounded and run only after expansion. They poll every
30 seconds while open. No provider probe or new summary query is added.
- Migration `0333` adds two partial indexes; it changes no stored cost
amounts or table columns. Index creation scans the existing tables and
may briefly block writes during deployment. No lockfile or workflow
change is included.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with repository inspection, code editing,
browser checks, and test execution. The exact serving model ID,
reasoning setting, and context window were not exposed to this session.

DottaandPaperclip a7dd5284b5 feat: add company fast-response acknowledgements (#15748)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Human messages start agent work through task, chat, and
external-channel intake.
> - Agent startup can delay the first visible response.
> - A small direct model call can acknowledge the request while normal
work starts.
> - This response must remain separate from evidence that the agent
answered or completed work.
> - This pull request adds optional company-wide fast responses with
durable receipts, access checks, and cost accounting.
> - Users receive prompt acknowledgement without changing the agent
execution path.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: database, shared contracts, server orchestration,
connections, and UI.

**Problem or motivation**

Users can wait for an agent to start before they receive a contextual
response. Generic progress messages do not confirm what the user asked.
An acknowledgement must not falsely complete work or satisfy an
unanswered turn.

**Proposed solution**

Add a disabled-by-default experimental fast-response model using an
existing shared API connection. Generate one short acknowledgement for
each accepted human turn. Use the existing agent identity and external
publication outboxes. Retain platform provenance and account for the
inference independently.

**Alternatives considered**

Running the acknowledgement through the agent runtime adds startup
latency. Restricting implementation to OpenRouter leaves other existing
API connections unsupported. This change supports all existing API
connections and uses OpenRouter for live verification.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends existing agent communication and connection settings.
ROADMAP.md and open pull requests were checked. No duplicate
fast-response implementation was found. The maintainer supplied the
feature plan directly.

## What Changed

- Add Experimental fast responses to instance settings. Keep the feature
off by default. Enforce the flag at intake, dispatch, and publication.
- Move Decision model and Fast response setup to company Settings →
Connections when the experiment is enabled. Place Connections below
Environments. Separate the model sections with clear headings and a
divider. Keep Decision model in General when the experiment is off.
Route Costs setup links to the available settings page.
- Make the acknowledgement prompt a multiline template string. Ask for a
brief, positive response in the user’s language.

- Add settings, connection/model selection, sponsorship, fixed-sample
testing, and Costs history.
- Add a Vercel AI SDK text service for existing native, routed, Bedrock,
and local API connections.
- Add durable per-turn requests, a bounded worker, a three-second
admission deadline, and one inference attempt.
- Integrate task creation, task and agent chat, steering, queued
follow-ups, experimental board chat, shared chat intake, and email.
- Preserve receipt provenance and exclude receipts from completion,
recovery, interaction resolution, and agent wakeups.
- Recheck authorization, source validity, real replies, budgets, and
destination binding before publication. Preserve accounting for
suppressed or uncertain outcomes.
- Add provider contracts, database race tests, channel outbox tests, UI
tests, Stories, and documentation. Keep decision-model execution
unchanged.

## Verification

- Local `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and UI token gates pass after
rebase. The UI typecheck and build also pass after the final navigation
fixes. All 37 focused navigation tests pass. The first full local `pnpm
test:run` invocation reported seven chat failures. All seven passed in
isolated reruns after fixture updates and host cleanup. This invocation
was stopped after the full final-head CI suite passed.
- Initial local database tests hit macOS shared-memory exhaustion. A
diagnostic confirmed `shmget: No space left on device` with the system
limit of 32 IDs. Three abandoned, unattached PostgreSQL IPC headers were
reclaimed. The isolated rerun passed all 31 fast-response and channel
tests. The two additional Slack regression cases also passed in a
separate rerun. No active database was stopped.
- UI token gates pass. Provider contract tests cover all supported API
connection types. Fast-response tests cover uniqueness, authorization,
budgets, expiry, cancellation, restart, real-reply races, and the
experimental flag.
- The test drive verified that disabling the experiment hides
Connections and redirects its direct URL. Enabling it restores the saved
OpenRouter setup. After restart on the final commit, the OpenRouter
settings sample returned “Sure, I’ll take care of fixing the border
around the settings panel.” in 428 ms. It used 260 input and 31 output
tokens and recorded $0.0000576 in reported cost.
- Earlier live OpenRouter verification produced a receipt in 1.013
seconds for a new task. The real agent then supplied its substantive
answer. A separate settings test took 1.34 seconds, used 246 input and
23 output tokens, and recorded $0.0000361.
- Live Slack verification on final commit
`24016fa525961ebc7a4acffdc5019ce123970549` passed for a fresh initial
task and a follow-up in a disposable bot DM. The initial acknowledgement
appeared 2.405 seconds after the Slack message and 1.413 seconds after
durable acceptance; the follow-up appeared in 2.322 seconds and 1.160
seconds respectively. The recorded generation/settlement durations were
898 ms and 697 ms. The initial call used 291 input / 39 output tokens
and cost $0.00006705; the follow-up used 281 / 47 and cost $0.00007035.
- The Slack acknowledgements retained the assigned agent identity and
`origin: fast_response`, source-turn references, and no fabricated run
ID. A status snapshot after the initial receipt showed the task still
`in_progress` with its real execution run. The agent then read the CSV
fixture and correctly reported two ready items, two blockers, and their
owners. Both replies stayed in the originating DM, and no duplicate
generic working message followed the delivered contextual
acknowledgements. The `new` command started a fresh conversation session
without generating a fast response.
- An earlier eligible Slack turn generated a response but suppressed
publication. Its reported cost was retained, generic progress remained,
and the real agent completed the requested result. This is recorded
separately from the two delivered acknowledgements; the history did not
expose a precise suppression reason.
- Slack verification used real signed provider events, the existing
intake/publication paths, and a user-approved temporary webhook-only
HTTPS tunnel. Subscriptions were limited to direct-message events. The
test bot was paused and the tunnel stopped afterward. Live
channel/group-thread and GitHub journeys remain unverified; their mocked
tests cover intake, destination binding, publication, and continued
underlying work.
- Greptile reviewed final commit
`24016fa525961ebc7a4acffdc5019ce123970549` at 5/5. Both new review
findings are fixed and all threads are resolved. [Final-head CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38060015730)
passed. This includes grouped server/chat/workspace tests, serialized
suites, runner checks, browser journeys, typecheck, build, release
registry, policy, and the canary dry run.
- Manual check: enable Experimental fast responses. Open company
Settings → Connections. Select a shared API connection and model. Save
and use Test response. Submit a task message and confirm that its
receipt does not complete the task.

## Risks

- The migration adds receipt and configuration tables plus accounting
references. It uses idempotent statements and follows the current
migration sequence.
- A slow provider, authorization change, or real-agent reply can
suppress an acknowledgement. Existing progress feedback remains
available.
- Unknown provider billing retains a reservation until reconciliation.
External deliveries with uncertain outcomes must not be blindly
repeated.
- Live Slack initial-task and follow-up DM journeys pass. Live Slack
channel/group-thread and GitHub journeys remain unverified. The PR
remains a draft and records these gaps. Final-head repository CI and
automated review pass.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser interaction. The runtime does not expose an exact
model snapshot ID or context-window size; these are not asserted.

DottaandPaperclip 3ec7309d91 feat(voice): add experimental Speko task connection runtime (#15727)
First PR: runtime. UI: #15728. Qualification: #15729.

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agent work through tasks and governed connections.
> - Chat connections already bind external conversations to those tasks.
> - Speko handles voice and telephony, while the selected Paperclip
agent does the work.
> - A call needs durable session authority, ordered follow-ups, and safe
result delivery.
> - This PR adds an explicit voice transport to the existing connection
runtime.
> - The UI and qualification suites follow in linked PRs. Speko stays
experimental.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Phone and browser voice conversations cannot use the chat connection
task lifecycle. A separate voice runtime is needed to preserve task
authority, retries, and reply history.

**Proposed solution**

Add company-scoped voice sessions, signed callbacks, durable replies,
inbound intake, and an agent-facing outbound-call tool. Reuse existing
tasks, queues, secrets, and publications.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the experimental chat connector entry points under Agent
Chat and Connected Apps. The project owner requested this feature.

Refs #11418 for the original provider catalog proposal. This
implementation uses the newer chat connection infrastructure rather than
an MCP catalog-only integration. Refs #15721 for remote OpenCode
startup.

## What Changed

- Add additive voice schema, shared contracts, session APIs, and
provider callbacks.
- Bind browser, inbound, and outbound sessions to an endpoint, task, and
selected agent.
- Add low-trust guest intake in an explicitly selected sandbox and keep
ordinary approval rules.
- Submit task work through session-scoped tools and push approved
replies through Speko POST /v1/calls/{id}/messages.
- Distinguish provider acceptance from confirmed spoken playback.
Reconcile reports without downloading recordings.
- Add protocol, migration, persistence, provider, and
delivery-diagnostic tests.

## Verification

- Master 3389bea708 is integrated. Database/shared builds, server
typecheck, migration upgrade/replay checks, and 46
communication-guidance/provider/protocol tests passed.
- The final persistence suite passed 85 real-database tests. Five
focused native continuation/authorization regressions passed. Five
callback ownership/rotation tests passed after the last runtime repair.
- Review repairs cover reconnect ownership, current caller authority,
duplicate delivery, multipart answers, task-page answers, guest question
handling, and saved sandbox recovery.
- A real OpenCode/OpenRouter DeepSeek task ran in Daytona and saved a
correct disk-space answer. This did not establish live-call playback.
- Full local typecheck/build passed before the final repairs; focused
typechecks passed after them. Latest-head CI runs the repository gates.
- The separate integrated browser qualification passed two journeys and
failed browser answer retrieval. The feature remains experimental. The
report in #15729 records this failure and outstanding real-provider
acceptance.
- No lockfiles are included. Speko migrations follow master as
0324–0330.

## Risks

- Voice sessions add migrations and provider-dependent lifecycle
behavior. Migrations preserve existing chat and AI transports.
- Callback origins must be reachable HTTPS. Provider keys and signing
secrets remain vaulted.
- Unverified callers receive task-scoped low-trust authority. Caller ID
does not grant private task access.
- Outbound telephony incurs provider charges. Provider acceptance is not
proof that the caller heard an answer.
- Keep the feature behind the existing experimental chat setting until
the real browser, inbound, outbound, and delayed-result acceptance
matrix passes.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip ed2c22ea8c feat(connections): simplify dedicated GitHub App setup (#15416)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agent work and the tools each agent can use.
> - GitHub bots need their own App identity and restricted repository
access.
> - Manual App configuration and repeated setup gates make that
connection hard to finish.
> - GitHub can create an App from a manifest, but people must approve
creation and repository access.
> - Each Paperclip stack should own configuration, credentials,
signature verification, and task admission.
> - This change uses Cloud as an encrypted callback and event gateway,
then completes setup in the stack.
> - GitHub review bots have their own experimental setting. Chat
connector opt-in does not control them.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Dedicated GitHub App setup, bot settings, and task-scoped GitHub
replies.

**Current behavior**

Users must configure an App, copy credentials, repeat repository
selection, and complete manual verification gates. Review settings are
hard to scan. Mentions in descriptions can be missed, and automatic
completion text can produce an extra GitHub comment.

**Proposed behavior**

Choose an agent and connect GitHub under a personal account or
organization. GitHub asks for creation and installation consent.
Paperclip resumes the same draft, stores secrets locally, imports
access, verifies delivery, and opens Settings. Each accepted request has
one editable App-owned comment for progress and results. Review
assessments produce deterministic checks for the reviewed commit.

**Breaking changes**

GitHub bots require their own default-off experimental opt-in. The
setup-method and delegated-agent screens are removed. Per-person
automatic-run flags remain readable but are replaced by author filters.
Existing connections, direct webhooks, saved restrictions, and manual
existing-App recovery remain supported.

Companion gateway:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/688 (merged). The
roadmap and related PRs were checked; no duplicate dedicated-App wizard
was found.

## What Changed

- Add an independent **GitHub review bots** setting across the catalog,
routes, identity admission, and task controls. Existing bots continue
running when the UI setting is off.
- Replace setup with Choose agent and Connect GitHub. Support personal
and organization owners, inline low-trust conversion, saved drafts,
known organization suggestions, automatic completion, and same-App
recovery.
- Keep manifests, OAuth PKCE, credential exchange, vault storage,
installation verification, and original webhook-signature validation in
the stack. Use the Cloud sealed gateway for public callbacks and
outbound local delivery.
- Add resumable owner metadata in migration 0323. Retry a failed
registration renewal through the same durable replacement rather than
creating another App route.
- Support authorized mentions in issue and PR bodies, comments, inline
comments, and review summaries. Preserve attachments, edited-source
identity, duplicate protection, and lifecycle invalidation. Filter
requests explicitly addressed to another connected bot.
- Give agents task-scoped review, comment, and update tools. Update one
working comment through progress and final output. Close coalesced
requests and recover delayed acknowledgements, including deleted earlier
working comments. Preserve automatic replies for legacy connections
without saved review configuration. Preserve partial publication
evidence and quarantine uncertain automatic fallbacks without blocking
Board messages or questions.
- Reorganize Settings and Access with rich slash-skill instructions,
numeric passing scores, clear automation controls, formal-review
tooltips, member and contributor sections, and verified App branding
links. Preserve invalid score drafts and automation choices across tabs.
- Paginate repositories in 20-row batches with search and a true
connection-wide toggle. Batch verification at GitHub's 500-ID token
limit. Keep saved repository overrides while hiding their editor.
- Give each review a detail URL that remains usable beyond the newest
100 records. Synchronize the manager OpenAPI contracts and add recovery,
authorization, UI, and browser regressions.
- Reconcile the current master branch and retain its agent avatar,
feature catalog, and extracted heartbeat preparation code. Preserve a
saved test-drive port and recover from an occupied high port.

## Verification

- Focused UI, independent experimental-setting, and CLI tests: 199
passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `pnpm check:token-gates`
passed. The broad local Vitest attempt was interrupted after resource
timeouts and stale expectations; the affected regressions passed focused
reruns. The latest-head full CI matrix passed, including all browser
shards, server/chat suites, builds, typechecking, canary packaging, and
Docker context integrity. A Docker Hub 429 required a CI retry; it
passed without changing the code.
- Final review repairs: 127 attachment/event tests and server typecheck
passed. All 13 final integration regressions passed under the normal CI
timeout, covering legacy reply compatibility, deleted coalesced
comments, inline-only review completion, progress edits, and native
final recovery. Restart-safe description/review attachments passed the
attachment suite.
- Final regressions: four reply/lifecycle tests, both native GitHub wait
tests, 171 feature-gate/reply-contract tests, the routed review preview,
and five scheduler/reply regressions passed. The final fixture repair
also passed all six setup-continuation cases and all three complete
chat-test shards in CI, covering terminal receipts and retries under the
normal CI timeout. One loaded-host receipt run exceeded its local
timeout; the exact case passed in an isolated rerun and the complete CI
shard.
- GitHub integration tests cover personal and organization setup, retry
recovery, edited mentions, attachment provenance, coalesced requests,
delayed acknowledgements, partial review writes, old review URLs, and
company boundaries.
- Browser qualification: both GitHub journeys, all five provider
setup/management journeys, and the GitHub uncertain-send recovery
journey passed. GitHub setup, reconnect, and task replies run with chat
disabled; chat enabled alone cannot expose GitHub bots. The disposable
qualification database was removed after testing.
- Earlier live qualification verified App-owned issue replies, native
slash-skill invocation, progress comment edits, and a 5/5 PR review with
a passing current-head check in the dedicated permissions-smoke
repository. These live checks did not use personal credentials as bot
execution authority.

## Risks

- Deploy the merged Cloud gateway protocol before the stack update. Each
callback and encrypted event must retain the original instance and
tenant binding.
- Migration 0323 uses idempotent column additions for test installations
that already applied the earlier draft migration number.
- A verified connection does not prove runtime isolation or a completed
review. Runtime checks remain separate.
- Required merge checks must be configured in GitHub. A passing numeric
score does not formally approve a PR; approval and request-changes tools
remain opt-in.
- Existing-App credentials cannot silently renew an uncertain manifest
exchange. Recovery preserves the existing App, draft, connection, and
agent.
- Repository changes save immediately. Global toggles affect all
currently available repositories, including unloaded rows, without
granting new installation access.
- A failed or uncertain tool write suppresses automatic fallback text;
the governed outbox retains its evidence. Deleted or replaced response
comments are not recreated through a personal credential fallback.
- GitHub logo upload remains an optional human action in GitHub App
settings. Runtime provisioning, delegated setup, screenshot publication,
and production push delivery remain deferred.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with tool use and code execution. The
exact runtime model identifier and context size are not exposed in this
session.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 98e3cec78e feat(costs): report monthly subscriptions beside API spend (#15634)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Its Costs page reports API charges and subscription token usage.
> - Subscription runs do not show the recurring fee paid for the
account.
> - Several agents can share one paid seat, so a fee per agent would
overstate cost.
> - This pull request identifies connected subscription accounts and
reports each monthly fee once.
> - Users can compare API spend and subscription costs, see uncertainty,
and enter their actual price.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #498 and #3406 for related subscription reporting needs. This
change does not add subscription budget enforcement or automatic
optimization.

Related prior approaches: #10544 and #11104 proposed API-equivalent
token costs for subscription work. This PR reports recurring account
fees separately from usage charges and budgets. A search found no open
PR for monthly account fee reporting.

**Subsystem affected**
Costs, managed AI connections, shared contracts, database schema, and
board UI.

**Problem or motivation**
An organization can pay for subscriptions even when included runs record
no additional dollar charge. The Costs page cannot show that monthly
commitment or distinguish a shared paid seat from several separate
seats.

**Proposed solution**
Discover account identity from the managed connection selected for a
run. Use exact known plans for labeled monthly list-price estimates.
Keep ambiguous plans and unconfirmed identities unpriced until the user
supplies a price. Sum current monthly fees separately from date-filtered
API charges and token usage.

**Alternatives considered**
A fee per agent double-counts shared accounts. Token-based API price
estimates do not measure the recurring subscription fee. Provider
invoices would be more exact but are not available through these account
credentials.

**Roadmap alignment**
Extends the shipped Better Budgeting and Personal & Shared AI Accounts
capabilities. The feature and UI were reviewed with the maintainer
before this PR.

## What Changed

- Add company-scoped subscription accounts, connection bindings, and
immutable price revisions in replay-safe migration 0322.
- Identify OpenAI workspace/seat and Claude organization/account pairs
only after provider authentication. Keep provisional records
grant-scoped; unchecked ID-token claims cannot combine accounts or grant
billing editors. Keep credentials and raw provider identities out of
reports.
- Attach the selected subscription to new run receipts. Resolve
duplicate aliases without rewriting old monetary receipts.
- Add cached background discovery with four provider checks and twenty
discovery requests at a time. Accepted requests wait for capacity;
excess requests receive HTTP 429 and a UI retry action. Preserve saved
prices and observations when a provider check fails. Dashboard polls
load current prices only; audit revisions stay in the database.
- Support owner-controlled monthly or annual prices, fractional-cent
precision, separate currency totals, tracking status, and duplicate
linking. Preserve both personal owners and shared-account managers when
discovery finds the same paid seat.
- Show API spend beside monthly subscription commitment, with separate
token totals and clear estimate labels. Account details and fee totals
follow billing-owner/shared-audience visibility; company-wide token
totals remain available to cost readers.
- Use consistent amount and estimate badge formatting for agent, user,
project, and model rows.
- Add real PostgreSQL tests, route authorization tests, UI tests,
interactive Storybook fixtures, and operator documentation.

## Verification

- Current head `d7b5c78dadf5033a3c447d83434676ac94687e77` passed all 53
checks, with two checks skipped. This includes the full test matrix,
browser tests, build, typecheck, migration policy, canary packaging, and
security checks.
- Greptile Apex reviewed that exact head at 5/5 with no unresolved
findings.
- Local `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `pnpm check:token-gates`,
migration safety checks, and `git diff --check` passed.
- All 238 focused tests passed across accounting, subscription
persistence, authorization, UI, migration replay, and snapshot drift.
- The expanded local chat suite passed 1,149 tests. Two cases failed
because this workspace found an unrelated ancestor skill directory; both
passed unchanged in an isolated checkout. The full local Vitest command
was not repeated after the rebase because of this environment issue. CI
covered the complete test matrix on the final head.
- Migration `0322_reflective_kree.sql` follows master's
`0321_acoustic_human_fly.sql`. Its snapshot and journal were
regenerated. Master's migration and snapshot are unchanged. The
subscription SQL retains its original content and hash.
- Disposable PostgreSQL upgrade fixtures applied master's added
lifecycle and Slack migrations without changing saved subscription
prices or cost receipts. The renamed subscription migration was
recognized by hash, retained one history row, and a second migration run
was a no-op.
- Regression tests cover provider capacity, fractional-cent edits,
billing visibility after grant revocation, and
fixed-price/credit/unknown usage. The new UI billing-label tests fail
against the old wording and pass with the fix.
- Browser checks passed for desktop and mobile layouts, shared-account
totals, annual price edits, unknown prices, and stale provider data.
- A live OpenAI account probe returned HTTP 200 and a verified Pro
account identity. The generic Pro plan correctly remains unpriced.
- Live Claude discovery identified Max 20x and a $200/month estimate.
Two real Claude agent runs were attributed to that same account, with
two usage receipts, two agents, one monthly fee, and zero additional
usage charges. Two OpenAI connections also deduplicated to one account.
- Live Codex execution is not verified: both Paperclip's managed hello
test and a direct host `codex exec` fail with a workspace-routing
authentication error. The current credential passes the usage API probe.
This is separate from the successful account-discovery check.
- A local performance fixture with 50,000 usage events and 5,001 saved
price revisions produced a 1,589-byte report in 11.5 ms median / 12.2 ms
maximum over ten warmed runs. PostgreSQL used the subscription/revision
index to read one current price row. These are local measurements, not a
production latency guarantee.
- [Desktop, account details, and mobile
screenshots](https://pages.paperclip.ing/pr-15634-subscription-costs-d5d285e2/)
show the production Costs page with synthetic Storybook fixtures.
- To inspect the UI, run `pnpm storybook` and open **Costs /
Subscriptions**. Edits there change fixture data only.

## Risks

- Provider plan identifiers can change. Unknown plans remain unpriced.
Automatic prices are estimates before tax; discounts and negotiated
prices require a user-supplied amount.
- Subscription fees describe the current monthly commitment. They do not
follow the selected usage date range and do not consume agent budgets or
create finance events.
- Monthly fees cover only accounts visible to the viewer; company-wide
token totals retain their existing scope.
- Legacy or unmanaged usage can remain unattributed. Unconfirmed
identities require manual prices and may need explicit duplicate linking
after credential changes.
- Disconnecting a connection does not prove provider billing stopped.
Users must end or exclude tracking explicitly.
- Migration 0322 adds tables, a nullable cost-event column, and an
index. It is replay-safe, but normal migration locks still apply.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. This session did not expose a more
specific backend model ID or context-window size. Capabilities used:
code editing, shell execution, database tests, and browser verification.

DottaandPaperclip 556daf9a99 feat(dot): run cloud assignments in managed sandboxes (#15691)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and governs their work.
> - The Runner owns execution and task authority.
> - Dot executes at OpenAI and uses Paperclip through MCP.
> - Dot previously required a self-hosted controller.
> - Cloud must admit Dot work in a managed sandbox and keep protocol
traffic in the tenant.
> - This pull request adds managed Dot execution and dedicated pairing
routes.
> - The same Runner path can later host sandboxed workspace tools.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Agent or provider**

OpenAI Dot, through the existing dedicated MCP adapter. Related changes:
#15402, #15414, and #15581.

**Why this adapter is useful**

Cloud users need to assign work to Dot and let Dot request work while
idle. Neither path should execute agent commands on the control-plane
host or require an idle sandbox.

**How the agent is invoked**

The tenant serves OAuth, signed mailbox events, and scoped tools. Normal
admission creates a managed sandbox for each assignment. A verified Rust
Runner owns that assignment and relays its tools and results.

## What Changed

- Enable the external-agent invitation in Cloud behind the standalone
Dot flag.
- Launch Dot through the existing managed process launcher and
authenticated PRP transport.
- Verify the artifact digest and Dot capability before dispatch. Read
provider checkpoints from the execution target for recovery.
- Reject local execution in Cloud and reject managed workspace access
for this release.
- Add dedicated public Dot pairing aliases. Preserve the personal
assistant consent paths.
- Keep Dot events in the tenant when a personal Cloud broker is
configured.
- Use the app-configured heartbeat for Dot-initiated work. Report
terminal admission failures and fence stranded offers before new
admission.
- Offer normal comments through the active assignment's mailbox. Keep
their wakes deferred until a successful history receipt contains the
exact IDs; preserve unread comments through finish, batching and
recovery without replaying consumed input.
- Require a sandbox process fingerprint before dispatch and allow a
bounded five-minute controller reconnect gap. Preserve remote process
birth without inspecting a colliding controller PID.
- Recognize authenticated remote shutdown receipts even without an OS
exit code.
- Document dedicated pairing aliases and teach route coverage to inspect
literal path arrays.
- Add opt-in private Daytona qualification and focused contract tests.

## Verification

- Workspace typecheck, production build, and UI token gates passed.
- Focused onboarding, OAuth, managed environment, artifact metadata, and
terminal-fence tests passed. One environment-test timeout passed on an
isolated repeat.
- A private Daytona fixture passed with the real Rust Runner, signed
readiness, assigned app tools, document writes, duplicate receipts,
authority fences, completion, and sandbox deletion.
- A real OpenAI Dot completed both an operator-assigned task and a
Dot-initiated task in managed Daytona sandboxes. Both leases were
released.
- A real accepted Dot assignment survived a controller gap longer than
one minute with the same sandbox process, Runner, session, and
assignment. Dot consumed the normal task-comment follow-up and completed
exactly once; the lease was released.
- A real cancellation fenced an accepted assignment, released its lease,
and received Dot's acknowledgement without claiming a global provider
stop.
- Final local checks: 74 Dot execution, OAuth onboarding and API
contract tests after integrating the current agent-lifecycle changes, 9
real Rust driver tests, 21 remote-runtime tests plus the 3
detached-process cleanup tests, and 17 lifecycle tests passed. The final
live Daytona fixture passed and deleted its sandbox.
- A final real Dot follow-up stayed pending until its exact comment
appeared in a successful history receipt. Dot completed the original
managed assignment once; its lease was released.
- The broad local suite crossed a rebase and was stopped; its failures
are not a qualification of this final source. Focused repeats passed.
The final head passed all CI gates: workspace types, build, general and
serialized test suites, Rust and Runner verification, all browser
shards, and the canary dry run. Greptile is 5/5 with both findings
resolved.

## Risks

- Deploy the tenant app with its current Linux Runner artifact and the
corresponding front-door protocol routes together.
- This branch has not been deployed to a Cloud tenant. A deployed tenant
still needs an OAuth and assignment smoke test.
- Dot provider usage and cost are unmetered. Revocation fences Paperclip
tools and does not prove a global OpenAI stop.
- Missing or changed recovery identity fails closed. No replacement Dot
thread is invented.
- No schema migration is added. Managed Dot workspace access remains
unavailable.

## Model Used

and browser testing. The exact runtime model identifier and
context-window size are not exposed in this session.

Nicky LeachandPaperclip 2dd9811e8b Own agent hiring and termination in a lifecycle module (#15631)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Agent creation, approval, pause, and termination change whether an
agent can work.
> - These changes currently use separate service and database paths.
> - Some agents need setup after their record exists and before their
harness can run.
> - This PR adds one module that owns those state changes and their
transactions.
> - The module records progress and retries incomplete work after a
server restart.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

A hire can become active before its execution environment is ready.
Direct agent state writes also bypass one common lifecycle boundary.
Termination does not have a durable step for resource cleanup.

**Proposed solution**

Use agent lifecycle commands for hiring, approval, pause, resume, and
termination. Keep proposed hires pending until approval. Prepare each
approved hire, test its saved harness configuration, and then permit
work. Wait for required plugin work before completing a step.

**Alternatives considered**

A general database commit hook would expose transaction details to
callers. A timer alone would delay each new hire. This module owns each
command transaction and starts its worker after commit. A periodic scan
recovers work after a process stops.

**Roadmap alignment**

This change adds the lifecycle boundary for the existing agent and
plugin systems. It does not add a user interface or a provider
implementation. It replaces the lifecycle delivery approach in #15391.
Related proposals include #11475 and #13099; this change does not add
their external executor protocols.

## What Changed

- Add durable approval, preparation, verification, pause, resume, stop,
and cleanup states.
- Keep agent creation, lifecycle state, configuration writes, and agent
record deletion behind `modules/agent-lifecycle`. Keep validation,
credential rules, reads, onboarding, invitations, general approvals, and
company data deletion in their services.
- Commit a hire before the remaining onboarding or invitation work.
Serialize requests with the existing dedicated database connection
helper. Reuse the hire after a failed attempt.
- Keep accepted work in the run queue during setup. Require execution
and cleanup evidence before completing pause or termination.
- Retain the original credential owner when approving migrated hires.
- Start lifecycle work after each command commits. Use database leases
and revision checks for retries and late results.
- Add a generic required plugin method and capability. Store the
required plugin IDs for each agent. Track host and plugin completion
separately.
- Keep harness verification and credential rules in services. Supply
their results to lifecycle through explicit ports. Reject failed logins
and incomplete probes.
- Remove reverse imports from lifecycle adapters into services. Share
record queries and validation below both layers.
- Use one hire decision path for agent IDs and approval IDs. Resolve the
approval and agent change in one transaction. Expose policy
reconciliation on the command object.
- Save configuration and verification invalidation through one module
operation. Ordinary commands own their transaction. Restrict the shared
transaction integration to its listed callers. Reject identity, company,
accounting, timestamp, and unknown fields.
- Require completed termination before deleting agent records. The
company deletion service calls the module through a separate deletion
interface.
- Save an approved secret before applying its agent binding. A failed
binding leaves the secret approved. A retry reuses it.
- Remove old permission and metadata export files. Move hire
configuration rules out of lifecycle persistence.
- Report failed worker steps and scans with operation context and known
error codes. Omit provider messages, stacks, and configuration values.
Document ordinary application use and extension rules.
- Recover expired native owners only after execution stops. Retry
cleanup of failed retained leases. Wait for setup in the live smoke
script.
- Keep manual, budget, and company pause reasons separate. Guard
execution status writes with the ready state.
- Add a migration, boundary checks, regression tests, and a lifecycle
guide. Keep the current UI.
- Limit periodic policy checks to 100 eligible agents per minute.
Continue from the last agent ID. Exclude pending hires and agents in
termination or a final state. Keep explicit company and budget updates
immediate.

## Verification

- Latest head `ccc3c86b0` aligns the shared status update schema with
the PATCH route. All 15 shared tests, 104 server route/OpenAPI tests, 2
CLI tests, and shared/server/CLI TypeScript checks pass. The Greptile
comment is fixed. CI is running; no new Apex review was requested for
this small fix.

- Rebase `75708ac94` rebases onto master at `2eb5187e4`. The backup test
uses the shared 90-second timeout from master; the older timeout commit
was removed. The affected backup test passes.
- Agent budget edits now pass the target agent ID through enforcement.
All 50 affected tests, server TypeScript, and 11 boundary tests pass.
Both configuration update paths have regression coverage. CI is running
on the latest head. No new Apex review was requested for these small
fixes.

- Rebase `9b568666a` preserves the run-control extraction and
delivery-work startup changes from master. All 559 affected tests,
server TypeScript, and 11 boundary tests pass. CI and Apex review are
running on the final head.
- The policy scan fix passes 56 lifecycle and diagnostic tests, 24
policy and caller tests, and 11 boundary tests. A regression test checks
the page limit, interval, excluded states, and cursor wraparound.

- Rebase `fd4698750` passes all 611 tests in eight affected lifecycle,
route, and heartbeat suites. Server TypeScript and all 11 module
boundary tests pass. The company deletion rollback and concurrent hire
tests are included.

- Follow-up `00aac7646` fixes the failed decision deletion test and the
public update schema. All 126 affected server tests, 8 shared tests, 2
CLI tests, and 11 boundary tests pass. Shared, server, CLI, and UI
TypeScript checks pass.

- Server TypeScript passes: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec tsc
--noEmit`.
- All 11 boundary tests pass: `node --test
scripts/check-module-boundaries.test.mjs`. The repository boundary scan
also passes.
- All 68 lifecycle, failure diagnostic, and harness verification tests
pass. Tests reject forbidden fields through the root command, combined
transition command, and restricted transaction integration. They also
check invalid fields returned by configuration preparation.
- Failure tests cover host work, plugin work, claims, renewals,
deferrals, and scans. Log tests check known error codes and exclusion of
private error contents.
- All 355 tests in 10 existing caller suites pass. These tests cover
secret approval, pairing, pending hires, credentials, company import,
built-in agents, managed agents, instructions, and skills.
- The branch is rebased onto `origin/master` at `2eb5187e4`. The queue
guards and cancellation lock fix use the extracted heartbeat queue.
Agent cancellation uses the extracted run-control file. The source diff
scan found no secrets or private URLs.
- Earlier checks cover approval retries, rollback, late verification
results, policy holds, deletion rollback, concurrent company deletion,
and queue admission during setup.
- Before the rebase, CI passed on `00aac7646` and Greptile Apex rated it
5/5 with no open comments. CI and a new Apex review are pending for the
rebased commit. The branch has no merge conflicts.
- The full local build and native Dot suite were not run. The host has
no Cargo. No live provider test was run.

## Risks

- Background policy recovery takes more than one minute when more than
100 agents are eligible. Explicit company and budget updates still
reconcile immediately.

- The restricted configuration integration keeps an agent reference and
its dependent records in one transaction. It cannot change a budget or
invoke a lifecycle transition. A periodic scan starts pending setup
after that transaction commits.
- Secret approval and binding use separate transactions. A failed
binding can leave an approved secret with no agent binding.
- New approved hires remain unavailable until setup and verification
complete. Existing clients see `paused` during these steps. This PR does
not change the UI.
- Migration `0320_daily_onslaught.sql` maps existing statuses and pause
reasons. It does not create external resources or claim that an existing
harness passed verification.
- Use a coordinated server update for this migration. Older server
versions can write legacy status without the new lifecycle checks.
- A failed onboarding or invitation request can leave a committed hire.
A retry reuses that hire and completes the remaining records.
- Deletion requires completed termination. Company deletion can require
another request while cleanup is pending.
- Required plugins must make repeated calls safe and reject older
revisions. A disabled or removed required plugin blocks completion until
it is restored.
- A new hire can run a second harness test after the existing UI test.
Some adapters can charge for this test.
- No live provider test was run. Provider implementation and resource
backfill remain separate work.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 3367b75ccc fix: fence accepted work and cleanup before idle sleep (#15522)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A host can stop an idle instance to reduce unused compute.
> - Zero active runs do not prove that requests, saved work, or cleanup
are complete.
> - A client can disconnect while its request still writes, and failed
cleanup can remain only in memory or on disk.
> - This pull request holds new admission and checks accepted work,
cleanup, and persisted work under an owned drain.
> - The host gets an empty report only while those checks remain valid.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13413. That companion PR uses the same owned-hold vocabulary for
runtime services. This PR covers HTTP requests, scheduler work,
accounting, cleanup, and the instance work inventory. It does not
include the preview gateway changes.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

The instance task-drain API reports process counters. It does not prove
that a host can safely stop the instance for idle sleep.

**Current behavior**

A quiet run set can coexist with an unfinished request, cleanup after a
completed run, future work, or a failed accounting write.

**Proposed behavior**

Provide a bounded owned idle hold. Block new ingress, track accepted
handler promises, inspect durable and local work, and return `none` only
when the same hold stays quiet through the checks. Keep normal
deployment drains compatible.

**Reason and benefit**

Hosts can identify eligible idle instances without treating a disconnect
or failed cleanup write as completed work.

## What Changed

- Add `purpose: "idle"`, a bounded TTL, unique owners, and owner-checked
release to task drain. Existing holds cannot be replaced by another API
request.
- Gate HTTP ingress before parsers, auth, webhooks, and MCP. Gate new
WebSocket upgrades. Track async handlers in nested Express routers and
error middleware until they settle, even after the response or client
disconnect.
- Count accepted live-event WebSocket authentication through settlement,
even after disconnects. Count detached built-in agent, managed-home and
runtime-service startup reconciliation after readiness.
- Keep health and control mutations tracked. Count control-request
authentication separately from the read-only report, including
concurrent user/company/membership writes.
- Pause new scheduler admissions during idle holds. Count work already
in flight, including database backups, and reject scans whose work
generation changes. Periodic backups block sleep without a host wake
schedule.
- Inspect accounting and orphan-cleanup spool directories without
skipping temporary or malformed entries. Retain orphan tokens through
queue splices, flush failures, and buffer overflow. Keep failed usage
capture counted until its database failure fence is written.
- Check persisted work across companies in a bounded read-only
transaction. Include deferred agent-file cleanup and saved watchdogs
whose watched issues are complete. Enabled plugins and unsupported
retained work remain blockers.
- Require the exact idle owner and completed startup tracking before
returning an empty report. Keep reports free of tenant details.
- Document the hosting protocol, retry behavior, conservative blockers,
and the remaining external provider-stop race.

## Verification

- Current head: `8d9a599b732c2047b8c671d4799065d7c90a3567`, rebased on
master `941a3fa991aeb97eb1ac390c65b7973b5f6de1ad`. Both heartbeat helper
extractions are preserved. GitHub confirms no merge conflicts.
- Focused heartbeat renderer/run-log, drain, control-auth, admission,
route and PostgreSQL inventory checks: 234 tests passed in 10 suites
after the rebase.
- The POST task-drain contract includes the expected `409` conflict
response. The 84 OpenAPI and instance-settings route tests and server
typecheck passed after that final documentation fix.
- Final accepted-upgrade/startup regression run: 104 tests passed in
five suites, including success and failure after readiness or
disconnect. Final server typecheck also passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`: passed.
- `pnpm build`: passed.
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile` and the PR diff secret scan passed.
No dependency or lockfile changes are added by this PR.
- The prior verification covered HTTP disconnects and early responses,
async error handlers, concurrent authentication writes, signed
bootstrap, saved watchdogs, backup promises, orphan cleanup, spools and
failed accounting fences. Those tests passed.
- The last full local `pnpm test:run` stopped in the general-server
phase with 16,658 passing tests and five skill/connector fixture
failures caused by an ancestor workspace skill directory. That full
local run preceded this rebase and has not been repeated for the import
conflict. Full current-head CI passed: 53 successful checks and two
conditional skips, with no failures.
- All eight review findings are fixed and their threads resolved,
including accepted upgrade authentication, detached startup writes and
the POST conflict contract. Current-head Apex review is 5/5 with no new
findings; all eight review threads remain resolved.
- No live provider stop or production change was performed.

## Risks

- The hosting controller must use the owned protocol and hold external
admission through its final validation and provider stop. A legacy drain
cannot authorize idle sleep. During an idle hold, new requests receive
503 with `Retry-After: 1`; the host must handle queueing or retry before
enabling this path.
- This is a single-process protocol. An unexpected restart after the
last validation can race an external provider stop. The host must
serialize deploy/wake/sleep operations and bind the validation to the
instance it stops. Multiple replicas need shared fencing.
- Some retained state conservatively prevents sleep, including every
enabled plugin. This PR does not promise that every inactive instance
becomes eligible.
- The HTTP adapter uses Express 5 router layers. Real Express tests
cover nested routes, errors and disconnects. New routes must register
before tracking is installed. Detached work must have durable state or
explicit work tracking.
- Unrecoverable in-memory cleanup debt keeps the instance awake until
reconciliation. This change does not make such debt survive an unplanned
process crash. No schema migration or provider configuration change is
included.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 via Codex, with reasoning, repository inspection, tool use
and code execution. The exact deployment variant/model ID and context
window are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip d66acb7ac1 feat: automate Slack bot app setup and installation (#15413)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Chat connectors give each agent a customer-owned bot and task-backed
conversations.
> - Manual Slack setup requires app creation and copying durable
credentials.
> - Operators need a shorter setup that an assisting agent can use
safely.
> - This pull request creates the app through Slack's Manifest API and
installs it through OAuth.
> - Durable registration state supports recovery without creating
another app.
> - A four-screen wizard, automatic avatar upload, and OAuth account
linking reduce setup work.
> - Connector settings and per-turn tool guidance support daily use
after installation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Native Slack bot setup, company secret storage, chat connector
management, and agent tool guidance.

**Problem or motivation**

New Slack bots require manual app creation and copying a signing secret
and bot token. Interrupted setup can create duplicate apps. The setup
and management screens contain unnecessary controls. Agents also need
guidance for native questions, files, thread replies, and governed Slack
actions.

**Proposed solution**

Use a temporary app-configuration access token to create a
customer-owned app. Save durable secrets in the vault. Bind OAuth to the
initiating actor, company, endpoint, registration revision, scopes, and
configured origins. Preserve manual and existing-app recovery. Link the
installing user's account, send a welcome DM, and advance from saved
server evidence. Keep request-URL recovery instructions available if
automatic connection detection waits.

**Alternatives considered**

The Slack CLI adds installation requirements. Socket Mode changes
transport. A shared Paperclip-owned app changes app ownership. These
alternatives are outside this change.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends existing chat connectors and secrets capabilities. Related
public work: #14037 and #13954 cover Slack MCP prerequisites and user
OAuth. No duplicate bot-registration PR was found.

## What Changed

- Share one reviewed manifest builder between automatic registration and
manual setup.
- Add replay-safe migration 0318 and company-bound registration state
with vault references and uncertain-creation recovery.
- Add registration, installation, callback, and resume APIs with
short-lived, single-use OAuth state.
- Save installation credentials before downstream checks and preserve
bot identity constraints.
- Reduce automatic setup to four screens. Keep advanced app details,
manual recovery, and existing-app setup.
- Upload the agent avatar with the Paperclip dark background. Link the
OAuth installer's account and send setup DMs.
- Show agent and connector-owner avatars. Simplify settings, access, and
conversation screens.
- Discover joined Slack channels and enable them by default. Start a
task from a bare mention and admit same-thread follow-ups.
- Refresh Slack tool guidance each turn. Add native-form, file,
approval, and delivery regressions plus manual model probe definitions
and sanitized acceptance records.
- Update deployment/database docs, OpenAPI, redaction, removal cleanup,
production Storybook stories, and provider browser tests.
- Merge current master and move the registration migration after its
latest migration without rewriting published commits.

The completed Slack success view intentionally has a single centered
**Done** action and no **Save & exit**, as explicitly requested by the
product owner. `DESIGN.md` records this exception; unfinished setup
steps retain the aligned wizard footer.

## Verification

- Passed after the master merge: repository typecheck, full build,
Storybook build, design-token gates, module-boundary gates, and
migration generation.
- Passed: all 352 focused Slack deterministic tests and all 14 affected
provider browser tests. Browser tests use controlled provider fixtures
and a separate throwaway instance.
- Passed on current head `c5d01e0e2`: the complete GitHub test matrix
(general server, chat, all workspaces, serialized server, and Runner),
all eight browser shards, typecheck/release registry, build, canary dry
run, security checks, and policy gates. There are 52 passing checks and
no pending or failing checks.
- Greptile completed on the exact current head with 5/5 and no
actionable findings or open review threads.
- Local repair verification passed 93 focused tests, including same-app
reinstall after revocation and rejection of consent started before
revocation, the AgentMail browser journey, and repository typecheck.
Local build and Storybook build also passed. The redundant local
full-suite rerun was stopped after the complete current-head CI matrix
passed.
- Real Slack setup and agent replies were exercised in the authorized
isolated test drive during the setup iteration.
- The ten additional model probes were attempted with legacy
`codex_local`, `gpt-5.6-sol`: five passed, two failed, and three were
partly verified. Native runtime is not qualified. See
`server/src/services/connectors/slack/evals/2026-10-08-acceptance.md`
for evidence and limits.
- Passing model probes cover native forms, downloaded file bytes, bare
mentions with thread replies, explicit posts/reactions, and saved
approval denial.
- The controlled uncertain-write probe found wrong delivery-check IDs.
The canvas fallback attempt used an invented tool name. Search
pagination/native search, a private-source denied-tool receipt, and
distinct board/webhook origins remain unqualified.

Reviewer path: enable Chat connectors, start Slack chat setup, select an
agent, enter an app-configuration access token, and approve Slack
installation. Send a message to the bot and confirm that setup advances
to success. Inspect settings and allowed channels. See
`doc/connections/SLACK-AUTOMATIC-SETUP.md` for deployment and recovery.

## Risks

- Slack app creation has no provider idempotency guarantee. A timeout
after dispatch stays uncertain until the operator checks Slack.
- OAuth needs a stable public HTTPS board origin. Webhook ingress may
use a separate configured HTTPS origin. Workspace policy can delay
installation.
- Migration 0318 can replay safely on instances that applied the earlier
development migration.
- OAuth installation now links the installer to the initiating Paperclip
user. Identity checks and company access rules still apply.
- Joined channels now enable bot responses by default. Linked-user
authorization and per-action approval rules still apply.
- Model behavior has the documented delivery-check and canvas fallback
failures. A passing CI run does not establish that every model probe
passed.
- Removing the connection does not delete the customer's Slack app. No
new first-party telemetry is added.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser verification. The runtime does not expose a more
specific authoring model ID or context-window size. The live bot probes
used OpenAI `gpt-5.6-sol` through `codex_local` in legacy mode.

DottaandPaperclip dd777f4b73 feat(dot): complete onboarding and expand governed Runner capabilities (#15414)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents, their work, and their permissions.
> - Paperclip Runner supplies the same admitted tool authority to each
provider.
> - The Dot provider in #15402 needs reliable onboarding and useful
agent capabilities.
> - An idle Dot could not start work, assign a human, read skills, or
produce a workspace artifact.
> - Pairing also relied on a second configuration save before ordinary
admission could work.
> - This pull request adds governed idle admission and shared Runner
tools, and completes pairing atomically.
> - Operators can test Dot with fresh data while keeping normal company,
approval, budget, and run ownership checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Paperclip Runner, dedicated Dot MCP access, OAuth onboarding,
experimental settings, and empty worktree startup. This PR builds on
merged provider PR #15402. It reuses the merged MCP gateway from #14846
and assistant connection work from #14933 and #15380.

**Problem or motivation**

An idle Dot could see assignments but could not act on a conversation
request until someone created a task first. Its Runner catalog could not
assign tasks to humans or read pinned skills and workspace files.
First-time OAuth discovery and pairing also needed browser fixes, and a
completed pairing did not persist its binding reference on the agent.

**Proposed solution**

Keep Dot within the existing Runner. Admit a visible agent-authored
intake task for idle requests. Add people, human assignment, cross-task,
skill, and optional sandbox workspace tools through shared authority.
Relay assigned app calls through the configured MCP gateway. Add lease
renewal and follow-up references. Save pairing and its configuration
revision atomically. Show prerequisites and provide a complete copy
prompt.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the experimental provider in #15402. It uses the existing
governed gateway, task model, skills, artifact path, and native Runner.
It adds no separate execution subsystem.

## What Changed

- Add a standalone OpenAI Dot agent choice with an independent
experimental opt-in. It works with the general Runner option off.
Require Assistant connections (MCP), authenticated sign-in, and public
HTTPS for pairing.
- Use Dot’s own option for company package import. Allow an unpaired Dot
configuration to save after external billing acknowledgement; task
admission still requires pairing. Prepare the shared dev binary for
Dot-only opt-in.
- Label saved Dot agents as OpenAI Dot. Use prerequisite-check copy in
setup and runtime configuration.
- Route Dot creation directly to pairing after explicit external billing
acknowledgement. Hide local CLI, model, and harness setup for Dot.
Preserve the shared Runner implementation and canonical API type. Other
Runner providers still require their general opt-in.
- Add an empty worktree option with fresh signing keys and no production
data copy.
- Fix public-client OAuth negotiation, discovery compatibility, and
optional separate browser authorization origin.
- Add one-use pairing consent preview, clear copied setup instructions,
and atomic binding persistence and cleanup.
- Add idle request admission with stable request IDs and normal
scheduling, permissions, budgets, and task ownership.
- Add identity and people discovery, human task assignment and
reassignment, and authorized cross-task comments and documents.
- Read assigned skill files from pinned manifests. Relay assigned app
calls through the merged gateway without exposing credentials.
- Add an off-by-default workspace bridge. Constrain paths and writes.
Run commands in a deny-by-default OS sandbox with no network or injected
credentials. Reserve mutations before effects and never blindly repeat
uncertain work.
- Add rolling lease renewal, task pagination, bounded operation limits,
and deduplicated follow-up references without comment bodies in
webhooks.
- Add an off-by-default attachment reading setting. Restrict reads to
files on the current assigned task. Verify size and hash, cache bounded
verified copies per run, paginate text or binary bytes, and recheck live
authority before returning.
- Keep file grants operator-owned. Reject agent self-grants across
configuration routes. Preserve attachment consent in create/import
forms. Close generic API file bypasses while retaining current-run
response snapshots and permitted uploads.
- Keep provider limits explicit. Do not inherit a Dot binding,
attachment permission, or workspace permission when hiring another
agent.
- Include the required Markdown format in cross-task document writes and
validate the API title limit. Verify real creation and revision
persistence.
- Restrict command execution to Linux bubblewrap with descendant
containment. macOS retains workspace file tools and artifact publishing,
while refusing command calls. Explain the platform limit in setup.
- Exclude Paperclip instance state from workspace files, uploads,
artifact publication, and sandbox commands. Protect nested directories
and case variants. Fail closed when the directory protection scan
exceeds 4,096 directories.
- Add static UI compression for slow public tunnels. Document setup, the
complete tool inventory, and qualification limits.

## Verification

- Merge preparation on `00ca2c75b` integrates merged base #15402 and
master `fc6304dfe`. The ancestry commit preserves the reviewed follow-up
source tree. The subsequent security fix excludes instance state from
file tools, uploads, artifact publication, and sandbox commands. It
preserves private task authorization and task monitors. It regenerates
the combined tool catalog, seeded catalog digest, and protocol manifest.
Workspace typecheck, full build, and UI token gates pass. All sixteen
real Dot broker cases and 93 company import cases pass after the review
fixes and creator-attribution test correction. The exported
human-assignment catalog and Unicode page boundaries are also fixed. All
ten catalog tests and nine workspace/skill bridge tests pass. All 35
workspace bridge and authority tests passed after the instance-state
fix, including real macOS commands in that intermediate version. The
subsequent document and descendant-containment fixes pass 44 focused
tests across bridge, authority, and setup UI, with six Linux command
cases skipped on macOS. Real cross-task documents pass the route
validator and persist two revisions. macOS refuses command execution and
does not advertise the tool. Full workspace typecheck and build, changed
server/UI typechecks, and token gates pass again on the final commit.
Greptile rates final head 00ca2c75b 5/5 and its completed check
concludes success; all review threads are resolved. All 58 current-head
checks are complete: 54 passed and 4 intentionally skipped. This
includes full tests, typecheck, build, Runner, browser E2E, release
verification, and Canary Dry Run. The older full local root attempt
finished with 16,602 passes, 93 skips, and ten failures across two
suites: it began before source edits and retained earlier imported
implementations while loading later tests. Both suites pass a clean
final-head rerun (25 passed, six Linux-only command cases skipped on
macOS). This mixed-source full attempt is not a final-head full-suite
pass; use the fresh CI evidence below.
- Full workspace typecheck and build pass for the standalone Dot change
on head `392d54f80`. UI token gates are clean. The full workspace
typecheck passed before the final importer UI edit; the changed UI
typecheck, build, and token gates pass again on the final commit. The
server build passes for its unchanged final source.
- Standalone selection, creation, settings, harness visibility,
inventory, and runtime admission checks pass. OAuth onboarding and the
real Rust/PostgreSQL broker suite pass 27 cases with the general Runner
option disabled. Dot and MCP revocation still block pairing; other
Runner providers remain disabled. Create, hire, conversion, and
inherited-hire route regressions pass 68 cases. The runtime selection
suite passes 20 cases. The setup UI suite passes 50 cases. Company
import and dev binary checks pass 97 cases. Import UI checks pass 29
cases, including Dot-only selection, preservation of imported Dot
agents, generic Runner fallback, canonical configuration serialization,
and required billing acknowledgement. A read of the synthetic instance
reports the native binary required with Dot enabled, the general rollout
disabled, and no persisted native work.
- The latest attachment, operator-consent, generic API file-guard, and
bridge checks pass 80 tests. Cache and native lifecycle checks pass 550
tests; create/import builders pass 45 tests; attachment setup UI checks
pass 16 tests. The real Rust/PostgreSQL Dot broker suite passes 15
cases.
- Earlier authority, human assignment, pinned skill, confinement,
cancellation, inheritance, onboarding, replay, OpenAPI, and gateway
regressions pass their focused rechecks. Workspace writes reject
concurrent stale hashes.
- In the live empty test-drive, turn the general Runner option off and
leave Dot and MCP on. Add agent shows a separate OpenAI Dot choice.
Create rejects missing billing acknowledgement, saves the canonical Dot
configuration, and opens pairing. The existing paired Dot remains ready
and passes its prerequisite checks. No new plugin pairing was needed for
this UI change. The final browser import preview keeps a Dot source
agent as OpenAI Dot, falls back a generic Runner agent while its switch
is off, and offers Dot independently.
- Real Dot completed OAuth, signed MCP Events readiness, and an
event-only assigned document task in an empty synthetic instance.
Pairing saved its binding without a second configuration save.
- Real Dot verified human assignment, cross-task comments and documents,
pinned skill reading, sandbox commands, lease renewal, follow-up input,
and a downloaded artifact whose bytes and hash matched its receipt. An
idle conversation request created an intake, created a task for its
human owner, continued after a definite missing-file read error, and
finalized Done with exit code 0.
- After operator approval, real Dot read a synthetic assigned-task
attachment and wrote its file-only random proof into an agent-authored
document. Its first test required accepting review because the existing
document tool removed the final newline.
- On head `2626c8f9b`, real Dot read a 13,849-byte synthetic attachment
in two pages, used `expectedSha256` on page two, saved exactly its final
random marker, verified readback, and finalized Done with exit code 0. A
direct inbox check was required for this attachment qualification; it
does not claim event-only delivery.
- Previous head `392d54f80` passes all 55 checks (53 passed, two
intentionally skipped), including the full test, typecheck, build,
native Runner, browser, and release verification gates. Greptile rates
this head 5/5; all review threads are resolved.
- Head `2626c8f9b` passed all 56 checks: 54 passed and two intentionally
skipped. This includes full typecheck, build, native Runner, server
tests, serialized suites, browser E2E, and Canary Dry Run. The unchanged
Cursor managed-runtime test exceeded its five-second deadline on the
first attempt; its focused local suite passed all eight cases, and the
single CI rerun plus dependent verify gate passed.
- A prior full local serial test attempt reported 19 failures (16,141
passed, 88 skipped) and stopped before later wrapper groups. It began
before the final source edits. Every failed suite has a passing fresh
recheck; the macOS snapshot stress case passes alone in 227 seconds. The
previous head `000fb9261` passed all 56 CI checks. PRs leave
`pnpm-lock.yaml` unchanged; CI and the refresh bot own dependency
resolution.

## Risks

- Dot remains off by default. Its own opt-in does not enable other
Runner providers. It still requires the MCP option; disabling Dot blocks
new work while keeping existing recovery and saved bindings.
- Dot requires a stable public HTTPS origin. Its base provider in #15402
is merged. Temporary tunnels are useful for testing but are not
permanent deployments.
- Idle intake creates a visible agent-authored task. It does not
fabricate a human message or bypass ordinary admission.
- Workspace commands require Linux bubblewrap with a private PID
namespace; deployment qualification is still needed. macOS file tools
and artifact publishing remain available, but commands are disabled
because sandbox-exec does not contain detached descendants. There is no
unrestricted fallback. Command protection fails closed above 4,096
workspace directories. The historical macOS command walkthrough does not
qualify the current Linux implementation.
- Provider model choice, token usage, cost, native thread control, and
global external stopping remain unavailable. Known Paperclip budget
gates still apply.
- The workspace bridge and attachment reader are separate opt-in
settings. Reading assigned task files sends their contents to OpenAI.
Revocation prevents future reads but cannot withdraw bytes already sent.
Files are read on request; automatic inbound attachment staging remains
disabled.
- An existing event registration can retain earlier instructions that
prohibit extra tasks. Dot asked for permission before a second intake
after the final event-only bootstrap; that extra no-nudge continuation
is not live-qualified under that earlier registration. The later
attachment qualification submitted normally through the composer. The
revised onboarding prompt describes the new idle entry point, and its
protocol polling path is tested.
- OpenAI event delivery can be delayed; a webhook acknowledgement is not
proof that Dot has begun work.
- A running Dot can retain an old plugin catalog after tool refresh.
Refresh and actual tool exposure must be checked before using new
top-level actions.
- Hosted and remote controller modes are not qualified.

DottaandPaperclip fc6304dfe5 feat(runner): add experimental OpenAI Dot provider over MCP Events (#15402)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents, tasks, permissions, and execution
budgets.
> - Paperclip Runner gives each provider the same admitted task and tool
authority.
> - OpenAI Dot runs outside the local process tree and needs
asynchronous work delivery.
> - The merged MCP gateway supplies OAuth consent and signed event
delivery.
> - A personal assistant grant cannot safely stand in for an assigned
agent.
> - This pull request adds a separate Dot agent connection and a durable
Rust Runner bridge.
> - The operator can assign work to Dot and inspect its accepted work,
tool receipts, and result.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Agent or provider**

OpenAI Dot, as an experimental provider of the existing Paperclip Runner
adapter.

**Why this adapter is useful**

An operator can assign normal Paperclip tasks to an existing Dot. Dot
can read its mailbox, request work on an assigned task, use admitted
task tools, and submit a result. Paperclip keeps company scope,
checkout, approvals, known budget limits, and activity attribution.

**How the agent is invoked**

A dedicated `/mcp/runner` OAuth resource pairs one Dot grant with one
agent. A signed MCP mailbox event wakes Dot. Dot explicitly accepts the
assignment. The Rust Runner owns the durable turn and operation
receipts. The first release supports self-hosted instances with a local
Runner controller.

**Additional context**

This extends the merged public MCP gateway from #14846 and the assistant
invitation and device-consent work from #14933. This also integrates the
merged assistant tool and configuration expansion in #15380. Dot retains
its dedicated agent resource and cannot receive personal configuration
permission. The public assistant connection remains a personal
connection.

## What Changed

- Add a durable Rust Dot provider and its TypeScript Runner driver.
- Add closed PRP v3 external-provider operations and native execution
input v6.
- Add company-scoped pairing, mailbox, assignment, and operation
records.
- Reuse merged browser/device consent, client metadata verification,
webhook admissions, refresh, secret rotation, and warm-standby gates.
- Keep Dot scopes, issuer, grants, event workers, and tool access
separate from personal assistant access.
- Add Dot configuration, pairing, readiness, and consent UI. Keep agent
grants out of the personal Connections entry.
- Regenerate the Dot-only migration after master. Preserve published
gateway migrations. Make the new migration safe to reapply.
- Document setup, recovery, accounting limits, evidence, and remaining
account qualification.
- Reverify reconnect callbacks and wake outstanding work with a fresh
mailbox reference; preserve the existing assignment and operation
receipts.
- Clean up Dot bindings and waiting runs on OAuth revoke and
refresh-token replay. Old grants cannot revoke replacement bindings.
- Restore the pairing reference when an unsaved agent form is reopened;
document board-only pairing routes in OpenAPI.
- Accept a clean Rust exit after the acknowledged shutdown receipt.
Unexpected exits still require recovery.
- Clear the cached binding after a successful revoke so a failed
connection refresh cannot restore it.
- Add production-component Storybook states and screenshots for pairing
and connection review. All preview account data is synthetic.
- Persist normalized completion, serialize Dot turns and durable work
admission, and poll subscription readiness.
- Serialize mailbox writes and cursor reads; retain paused fence
acknowledgement without task authority.
- Authorize admitted review runs without changing the worker assignee.
Include the fenced assignment ID in production stop notices.

## Verification

- This PR integrates master `4a8178e9c`. Dot migration
`0317_messy_famine.sql` follows the published history and is safe to
reapply. The merge preserves the reserved migration connection,
batch-commit handling, private task checks, task monitors, and native
accounting.
- Local workspace typecheck, full build, and UI token gates pass. The
server typecheck passes after the review fixes. Database and native
executor regressions pass.
- All twelve real Rust/PostgreSQL Dot integration tests and twelve Dot
driver tests pass. The tests cover native document writing and
finalization, durable replay, queue admission, mailbox ordering,
admitted reviews, stale authority, production stop references, and
paused acknowledgements.
- Current head `d0e7e0626` passes all 57 checks: 53 pass and four are
intentionally skipped. This includes full typecheck, build, tests, Rust
Runner verification, browser E2E, release verification, and Canary Dry
Run. Greptile rates this exact head 5/5. All review threads are
resolved.
- The full local root test run is slower than the sharded CI run and has
not completed. The full CI test gates pass on the current commit.
Focused local regressions pass.
- Real-account pairing and event delivery on this base commit remain
unqualified. Live account and setup proof are recorded in the follow-up
#15414.

The following screenshots use synthetic preview data. They show the
production pairing component and do not qualify a real account or the
full agent setup journey.

![Synthetic connected
preview](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/dot-events-prototype/doc/screenshots/openai-dot-runner/connected.jpg?raw=true)

## Risks

- This base adapter uses `PAPERCLIP_ENABLE_OPENAI_DOT=1` plus Public MCP
and Paperclip Runner. The separate experimental-settings follow-up in
#15414 replaces this environment flag with saved operator settings.
- Dot does not expose provider token usage or cost. The operator must
acknowledge external billing. Known Paperclip budget gates still apply.
- Cancellation fences Paperclip authority. It does not confirm that Dot
stopped all external activity.
- Assigned skill files and third-party MCP bindings are unsupported and
reject admission. There is no mounted workspace, model selector, or
provider thread identifier.
- Hosted agent-broker and remote controller deployments are not
qualified.
- The new migration follows the merged master history. Existing
prototype databases still need the normal master migration history
before this Dot-only migration.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The exact deployment ID and context window
size are not exposed in this session. Capabilities used: reasoning,
repository editing, code execution, and test inspection.

DottaandPaperclip a7a244ab33 feat: add company decision models with permission and cost controls (#15473)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Optional product features need small, typed model decisions.
> - Each company needs to choose which shared API connection pays for
those decisions.
> - Calls must retain user and task permissions, budget limits, and cost
attribution.
> - This pull request adds a managed decision service, setup UI, and
request history.
> - Features can check availability cheaply and keep their existing
behavior when decisions are unavailable.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server services, shared contracts, database accounting, Company
Settings, and Costs.

**Problem or motivation**

Paperclip has no common decision-model service. Adding provider calls
within each feature would duplicate credential access, permission
checks, and billing rules.

**Proposed solution**

Let a connection manager configure one company decision model. Support
OpenAI Decisions and Jev through OpenRouter. Provide a fixed setup test
and metadata-only history. Default company-sponsored background
decisions to on during setup, and preserve a saved off setting.

**Alternatives considered**

Per-feature credentials would duplicate existing connection management.
Personal overrides and provider fallback chains add permission and
billing complexity; they remain deferred.

**Roadmap alignment**

Reviewed ROADMAP.md and searched open PRs. This extends existing
connection access and budget accounting. Product features that call the
service remain outside this change. No matching decision-model service
PR was found.

## What Changed

- Add company settings, an internal `decisionModelService`, local
availability checks, and trusted human, agent/run, and system contexts.
- Pin Vercel AI SDK provider dependencies and adapt boolean, choice, and
ordered-score decisions for both providers. Bound requests and time;
disable paid retries.
- Add durable invocation metadata and agentless decision ledger charges.
Preserve fractional cents, pricing evidence, dispatch identity, and
unresolved billing holds.
- Share the company accounting lock and apply company, agent, and
project budgets. Settle charges once, retain unknown holds, and recover
interrupted calls without resubmission.
- Reuse connection setup and management UI. Add a Decisions view under
Costs, production-component Storybook coverage, database migration, and
service documentation.

## Verification

- Passed 166 current-code tests covering the decision service/provider,
setup component, Costs, OpenAPI, and every failure from the earlier
broad run. Coverage includes native SDK wire formats, refusals, billed
malformed responses, permission and secret-rotation races, identity
changes, concurrent budget admission, unresolved holds, agent/task
deletion, and stale setup feedback.
- Passed 170 existing connection, cost, budget, heartbeat-accounting,
and profile regression tests.
- Passed repository typecheck, production build, and design token gates
after integrating master. Verified the generated migration on a fresh
test database and upgraded the populated preview database from the
branch's earlier migration without losing settings or usage.
- Ran the required full `pnpm test:run`: its general phase completed
with 16,354 passed and 10 failures across five files while this branch
was still being updated. Every reported failure passes in the
current-code rerun; the serialized phase did not run after that failure.
The full GitHub CI suite passed on `b1b856a88`: general and serialized
tests, browser shards, runner checks, typecheck, production build,
packaging/canary, and policy gates. [CI
evidence](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37673106360).
- Passed the full-shell Storybook setup-to-history interaction test
again after integrating master. Greptile rates the final revision 5/5
with zero unresolved threads.
- Walked through the running app: empty setup, add each provider, save,
reload, run all three sample questions, inspect fractional charges in
history, switch provider while sponsorship is off, disable, and
reconnect. Checked mobile settings. These tests used the actual UI,
vault, server, SDKs, and database with simulated upstream responses.
- Live paid setup tests remain unverified: this environment has no
authorized OpenAI/OpenRouter credentials available. No mocked test is
presented as live provider evidence.

Reviewer journey: Company Settings → General → Decision model.
Add/select a shared API connection, save, run the billed sample, open
View usage, then disable decisions and verify Run test is disabled after
reload.

## Risks

- The SDK decision interface is experimental. Pinned versions and
wire-format tests limit upgrade drift.
- The migration allows agentless service charges and reservations.
Existing agent cost-reporting APIs still require an agent, and decision
receipts stay separate from run reconciliation.
- Timeouts can have unknown provider charges. Holds remain until an
audited accounting correction resolves them.
- OpenAI prices use a versioned Decisions rate snapshot; OpenRouter
costs use provider receipts. Unknown pricing is retained as unknown.
- A configured company authorizes background spending by default. Setup
explains this, and managers can turn it off.
- Live provider account/model availability still needs the two
credentialed acceptance checks.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip ae6f95ed7a feat: add personal primary agents (#15470)
Add a personal primary agent per company and user. Initialize it from the first human-created agent, expose profile-only switching with confirmation, and use it after recent choices for task and Chat defaults.

Persist authenticated preferences, preserve lifecycle and membership rules, keep selections out of shared audit events, and document the API contract. Include the reviewed Storybook surfaces and regression coverage for concurrent choices, onboarding, cross-device updates, and browser journeys.

2026-10-06 22:26:48 -07:00
DottaandPaperclip b508a05c43 feat: add internal agent complaints and suggestions (#15367)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use legacy skills or native runner tools to work on tasks.
> - Those agents can encounter friction that does not belong in the task
thread.
> - A complaint should preserve the raw reaction. A suggestion should
describe an improvement.
> - This pull request adds attributed local storage and both submission
paths.
> - Agents can submit feedback once and continue their primary work.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Server, database, shared contracts, runtime skills, and native runner
tools.

**Problem or motivation**

Agents have no default internal channel for incidental complaints and
suggestions. Sending this feedback through task comments adds noise and
can alter task workflows.

**Proposed solution**

Store free-form feedback in the current instance database. Derive agent,
run, company, and task attribution from active authority. Provide
default legacy skills and provider-neutral native actions. Keep the
instructions close to Warp's MIT-licensed originals.

**Alternatives considered**

Task comments and external Slack delivery add unwanted side effects.
Mandatory suggestion fields and short editorial limits would discard
useful feedback. This release has no listing API, UI, read tool,
automatic triage, or external forwarding.

**Roadmap alignment**

This is a maintainer-requested addition to the existing runtime skills
and runner tool paths. It does not duplicate a listed roadmap milestone.
Searches for complaint tooling, suggestion-box, and agent commentary
found no overlapping public PR or issue.

## What Changed

- Add the company-scoped `agent_commentary` table, shared validation,
and idempotent migration `0310`.
- Add one transactional service and the agent-only POST route. Validate
active authority before writes or replay. Redact known credentials.
Commit a content-free audit with each new record.
- Add `submit_complaint` and `submit_suggestion` to standard, ask, and
planning modes. Keep review, revocation, and completion restrictions.
Store replay identity on the commentary row.
- Mount `complain` and `suggestion-box` by default for legacy agents.
Bundle a dependency-free Node.js stdin helper in the operational skill
and allow its POST through the sandbox bridge.
- Preserve Warp's complaint voice and suggestion guidance, with
attribution and local transport adaptations. Keep source attribution and
MIT notices in each skill's LICENSE, outside runtime instructions.
- Document custom-runtime HTTP use and database inspection. Add
real-database tests and a repeatable live Codex smoke for local and
Daytona execution.
- Pin the lagging-source migration fixture before the identity-repair
migration so later migrations preserve its regression coverage.

## Verification

- Personally ran real Codex submissions in all four environments on
2026-10-06. Local runs passed at 20:35 UTC. Daytona native passed at
20:31 UTC; Daytona legacy passed at 20:33 UTC. Each stored exactly two
rows with company, agent, run, and task attribution, wrote the
continuation marker, exited zero, created no task comments, and left
task status unchanged. Each recorded two content-free activity entries.
- Daytona used production provider hooks, real remote execution and file
transfer, the legacy queue callback bridge, and native private WebSocket
ingress. The current Linux runner was built from `abf47b595`, staged,
and verified against controller contracts. Both sandboxes were confirmed
deleted. This is a focused feedback transport smoke; it does not claim
full Runner E2E catalog or browser qualification.
- The immutable base image and Linux binary digest are recorded in [the
verification
documentation](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/blob/codex/agent-commentary/doc/agent-commentary.md#verification).
The smoke script can save content-free JSON evidence. No credentials or
feedback bodies are in these reports.

| Environment | Runner | Complaint row | Suggestion row |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| local | legacy Codex | `59413a00-1de2-4bb1-bcc6-9c4b54c64aa6` |
`3db2364d-3e15-4f47-846f-875d3902999d` |
| local | native Codex | `5da22b5f-41df-4de5-8ba0-d9345ab01267` |
`2d5abe17-dd41-403c-a5ee-4729f2d58921` |
| daytona | legacy Codex | `27c9d0aa-8477-409f-9da0-e8ffa48dee50` |
`209681c9-d1e9-4ce1-999e-48fa07692389` |
| daytona | native Codex | `6eb001bb-4bcf-43f7-8717-f662f53dc7c3` |
`77c383d8-a997-49e5-a33e-25c70e15c0b2` |

- Run the local check with `node cli/node_modules/tsx/dist/cli.mjs
server/scripts/verify-agent-commentary-live.ts`. The documentation gives
the Daytona invocation. Both use disposable instance databases and
normal Codex provider usage.
- Repository `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed after the test
extension. The build includes runner generation, contracts, and replay
checks. The smoke scripts also passed a separate TypeScript check. The
lagging-source migration regression passed. All equivalent current-head
Vitest CI shards passed. The local monolithic `pnpm test:run` invocation
was stopped after CI supplied that coverage; it did not complete
locally.
- Focused tests cover company isolation, spoofing, revoked credentials,
stale ownership, post-finish rejection, concurrent replay, conflicting
keys, atomic rollback, and deletion through existing services. Boundary
tests cover empty text, Unicode, text beyond 8,000 characters, and the
524,288-character ceiling without truncation. Mounting tests cover
Codex, Claude, and sandbox staging. Helper tests cover standalone Node
execution, stdin, invalid UTF-8, redirects, HTTP failure, and its
deadline. Privacy and bridge tests cover successful and rejected
requests.
- Instructions were compared with Warp's originals. MIT notices and
source credits live only in LICENSE files. Native tools preserve
truthful disclosure when asked, without routine announcements.
- [Full
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37508559190)
and Greptile 5/5 passed on the earlier feature commit `5209c3501`. The
later head found the migration-fixture assumption fixed in this update.
On `8a4965164`, all 55 check contexts passed after one browser shard
rerun. Its initial reviewer signoff failure also passed an isolated
local browser run (1 test). Greptile scored that head 5/5 and identified
one smoke cleanup gap. `6ecbafb0b` fixes failed-acquisition cleanup with
four passing tests and a passing smoke-script typecheck. Fresh CI is
pending for this final test-only fix. No commentary production code
changed during verification.

## Risks

- Feedback is internally attributed. It is not anonymous. Existing
redaction removes known credentials, but agents must still omit
sensitive content. Normal provider transcripts can include their
submitted arguments.
- Default skill availability changes for existing legacy agents. Runtime
policy filtering still applies. The helper uses the existing Node.js
runtime with no extra dependencies; custom runtimes can call the HTTP
endpoint.
- Feedback is removed with its run, agent, or company. Task deletion
clears only the issue pointer. Normal database backups include the
table.
- The migration is additive and has no backfill. Writes serialize on the
active run for replay consistency. No server suggestion quota is
imposed.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6-astra` through Codex, with `xhigh` reasoning effort and a
reported 258,400-token context window. Capabilities used: repository
inspection, code execution, and live runtime verification. No subagents
were used.

DottaandPaperclip 9f7057e122 feat(connections): configure custom model providers across agent harnesses (#14970)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents use a harness, a model, and a credential to run tasks.
> - Connections already store credentials and control who can use them.
> - Custom providers also need an endpoint and a supported API format.
> - A per-agent endpoint would duplicate credentials and access rules.
> - This pull request stores routing on the connection and projects it
into the harness.
> - Isolated credentials and protocol checks keep the selected
connection authoritative.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #37, #13083, #14104, #14565, #12692.

#14016 is a reference only. This PR has its own schema, vault
persistence, routing validation, runtime projection, and tests. None of
the five commits in #14016 is an ancestor of this branch. We do not
depend on or plan to merge it. #14967 addresses task-pinned account
pools. #14422 addresses another provider integration.

This is the first of two linked PRs. Merge this connection change before
#15341, which refines agent setup and adds the qualification harness.
The split keeps each review below 100 changed files. Provider catalog
entries have usable setup forms in this PR. Local browser subscription
sign-in is included.

## What Changed

- Store non-secret routing metadata on AI connections. Vault provider
API keys, including Bedrock bearer API keys. Reject general AWS access
keys.
- Enforce company, owner, human audience, agent access, connection
status, and protocol checks before resolving credentials. Keep reconnect
destinations immutable and retain connection identity during key
rotation.
- Project OpenRouter and compatible custom endpoints into Codex, Claude,
OpenCode, and local Hermes. Carry these settings through both legacy and
native runner transports. Clear conflicting host credentials and redact
keys from diagnostics.
- Preserve older OpenRouter accounts and native personal defaults. Add
Google API-key accounts and migration `0306` for the two
provider-default constraints.
- Run local Claude and Codex subscription sign-in behind the existing
browser sign-in card. Use private attempt homes and owner-bound
completion instead of a copied terminal command.
- Seed isolated Gemini authentication and preserve OpenCode workspace
permissions. Keep the selected connection authoritative. The independent
Gemini and Grok workflow fixes are in #15341.
- Keep native OpenCode custom gateway keys in a runner-owned
selected-model proxy; the harness config contains only a session-scoped
capability. Honor runtime outgoing proxy and certificate settings.
Preserve streamed responses and revoke the proxy on close or startup
failure.
- Allow ordinary members to connect native personal accounts before an
agent exists.
- Repair routed accounts from task cards using the saved provider
destination, protocol, model aliases, and connection identity.
- Add provider catalog definitions, model discovery, pinned logos, and
complete native and routed setup forms. Allow a personal routed
connection before a new agent exists. Keep endpoint authentication keys
out of Hermes terminal children.
- Recover cancelled or restarted browser sign-in with a clear restart
action. Support no-auth endpoints without a vault credential. Add
isolation and recovery regressions and runtime documentation.

## Verification

- Updated with `origin/master` at `22a3ea341`. Migration `0306` follows
the new master migration and passes migration and snapshot checks.
- The integrated connection regressions passed 152 tests and 50 native
OpenCode driver tests, including key-free child-shell configuration
reads, authenticated/no-auth forwarding, streaming, model/path
restrictions, cancellation, outgoing proxy routing, and NO_PROXY bypass.
Provider setup has 14 passing tests. The pinned real OpenCode 1.18.34
executable also completed a turn through the proxy against a local
synthetic provider; the reusable key was absent from its config. A
second real-executable smoke passed with an HTTPS CONNECT proxy and
runtime-specific synthetic certificate trust. Certificate-file and
certificate-directory regressions pass.
- Task-card repair passed 48 tests, including OpenRouter, Bedrock, and
custom gateway reconnect cases. UI typecheck and token gates passed.
- The prior core regression set passed 133 tests across new-agent setup,
provider forms, browser sign-in, routing projection, and connection
authorization. Token gates and UI typecheck passed.
- Full workspace typecheck and production build passed again after the
latest integration and credential-proxy fix. The merged deterministic
runner E2E suite passed 1,400 Vitest tests and 128 Node tests.
- Full workspace typecheck passed on the prior linked combined
implementation. Production build, Storybook build, 1,316 browser-harness
Vitest tests, and 128 Node tests passed. Head `9d964c8d9` includes the
latest master integration and regenerated migration. This exact head
passed 54 remote checks with four expected skips and Greptile 5/5; no
review threads remain open. An unchanged server fixture had a random
six-character issue-prefix collision on its first attempt. All 245 tests
passed locally and the single CI retry passed.
- A provider-free terminal check used the cited supported Hermes source
and dummy keys. Gateway and OpenRouter terminal children could not read
the selected key.
- The broad local Vitest attempt passed 15,442 tests but was not green.
It had an embedded-Postgres startup failure, an HTTP logger timeout, an
origin socket error, and a browser cancellation wait timeout. The
cancellation wait was corrected. The relevant connection tests and the
full origin test file passed separately. Latest-head CI must pass before
merge.
- Prior credential-backed acceptance exercised task creation, tool use,
artifact delivery, completion, and context-dependent follow-up. Claude
legacy and native runners passed Bedrock with `us-east-1` and
`us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-6`.
- Historical local qualification retained 43 passing API/gateway cells
out of 46. Those attempts span earlier builds. They do not qualify this
exact commit or staging. All subscription combinations and staging
remain unqualified.
- Verify native subscription and API-key setup. Connect a regular
provider catalog row. Verify an incompatible harness and a changed
reconnect URL are rejected. Use #15341 for the complete browser
campaign.

## Risks

- Migration `0306` changes two check constraints. It preserves rows and
is safe to reapply. It takes normal constraint-change locks.
- Credential projection touches several harnesses. CLI upgrades can
change provider configuration and session behavior.
- The native OpenCode proxy adds a loopback hop, pins requests to the
selected model, limits request bodies to 16 MiB, rejects redirects, and
expires at session close. It prevents reusable keys in the child
configuration; it is not an OS isolation boundary against a process
debugger running as the same user.
- Custom endpoints must be reachable from the agent environment. Saving
a connection does not prove connectivity. Bedrock keys require rotation
before expiry.
- Gemini CLI 0.58.0 has an upstream ACP new-file error conversion
defect. Provider overloads and an unresolved follow-up timeout also
affect live Gemini qualification. We have not patched the installed CLI
or marked those cases as passing.
- OpenClaw Gateway, Hermes Gateway, Claude Managed, AWS AgentCore,
Process, HTTP, and legacy ACPX local are excluded. Vertex, ambient AWS
identity, arbitrary auth headers, and custom routing for other harnesses
are excluded.
- These PRs do not establish production or staging qualification for
every provider and login method.

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser testing. The exact deployment model ID and

DottaandPaperclip 22a3ea3414 Invite assistants from Connections with scoped browser and device consent (#14933)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Public MCP lets people use their organization from an external
assistant.
> - Operators need a visible control for this experimental access.
> - Hosted users should select an organization once and then approve its
permissions.
> - This pull request adds the setting, invitation-first setup, and
browser or device consent.
> - Connections provides a copyable invitation with public instructions
that grant no access.
> - Users reach browser consent from their assistant and return to
inspect or revoke access.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Builds on merged foundation #14846. This PR now targets master. Related
settings convention: #13905.

**Current behavior**

The preview uses an environment variable to enable MCP. Hosted consent
repeats organization selection. Assistant access has no entry in
Connections, so users must already know the endpoint and how to reach
consent.

**Proposed behavior**

An administrator enables Settings → Experimental → Assistant connections
(MCP). A hosted connection shows the selected organization and its icon,
then asks for permissions. Requested write access starts checked when
the user’s role permits it; the user can opt out before connecting.
Direct instance connections show an organization picker with the first
available organization selected. The selection stays fixed across
refetches and still requires an explicit Connect action. Connections
includes Assistant Connection (MCP). Its setup page explains the
canonical endpoint, client configuration, browser authentication, and
connected access. It connects as the current person and does not select
or impersonate an agent.

**Reason and benefit**

Operators manage access with the other experiments. Users select one
organization, and both the UI and server enforce that choice.

**Breaking changes**

The old enable variable has no effect. Preview operators must enable the
setting once. Apply the additive consent-request migration before
deploying the tenant, then deploy the compatible Cloud broker. Existing
direct requests and grants keep their behavior.

## What Changed

- Simplify OAuth and device consent: show the Paperclip logo beside
“Connect {client} to Paperclip”, fall back to “your assistant”, and show
the identifying origin plus its favicon below, with the callback URL
also visible when different. Remove the hosted-organization creation
action. Default to the first available organization without silently
changing it on refetch; preserve company restrictions and write
opt-outs. Keep the button row contained on narrow screens.
- Make Copy invitation the primary action, using the shared animated
AgentSetupPrompt and a collapsed manual setup section with icon-labeled
line tabs. Remove redundant link actions, copy-status text, the extra
first-prompt well and revocation explanation from the setup page. Serve
shared version-aware HTML and Markdown instructions without private
organization data.
- Support guarded Client ID Metadata Documents alongside dynamic
registration, and include authorization response issuer identification.
- Add RFC 8628 device authorization with separately hashed codes,
expiry, shared request quotas, persistent polling backoff and atomic
redemption. Reuse human consent, role checks, scoped grants, audit and
revocation.
- Add CLI device login and a local stdio bridge. Store credentials
separately with private permissions and serialize rotating refreshes.
- Add device consent stories and five cold-start paid Product E2E cases
with independent grant, configuration and durable-work assertions.

- Add `enablePublicMcp` to the settings validator, normalizer, feature
catalog, and toggle UI. Check it live for OAuth, tools, subscriptions,
and event delivery. Keep connection management and revocation available
while disabled.
- Default the MCP origin to the existing auth public URL, with strict
validation and an explicit override.
- Persist the optional OAuth `company_id` restriction. Describe only
that company and reject approval for any other company, even if the
person belongs to both. Keep active-membership and role checks.
- Show the Paperclip icon and a large organization icon during consent.
Return the saved company logo through the company-scoped request
response and reuse the standard fallback icon. Use the requested concise
permission labels: “Read all of your Paperclip data” and “Allow write
access and creating tasks as me”. Use concise permission copy, retain a
compact client and callback-origin disclosure, and remove the footer
link.
- Default requested write access on for eligible roles. Preserve opt-out
across organization changes and refetch, reset defaults for a new
request, and submit read-only access when the request or role does not
allow writes. Align the shared checkbox with its label.
- Use organization wording in consent, management, settings, and
walkthroughs. Keep the organization fixed for hosted requests and retain
direct-instance choice.
- Add an Assistant Connection (MCP) card to the Connectors catalog, a
setup page in the app shell, and a return link from Experimental
settings. Include Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, and generic remote MCP
instructions.
- Read the live gate and canonical server URL through authenticated
setup metadata. Show only the current person’s grants for the selected
organization, refresh after consent, and support revocation. Surface
catalog status failures with an explicit retry action; do not present
them as an empty connection list. Opening setup grants no authority.
- Start the eight guided chapters in Connections. Keep presenter notes
and chapter controls around real product pages in the app shell. Explain
the terminal, consent, delegation, retrieval, and revocation handoffs.
Mark conversation examples as illustrative. Cover first use, client
setup, connected, loading, and error states. Keep the existing consent
and management stories.
- Keep the paid-eval setup and browser helper aligned with the setting
and consent button.

## Verification

- Warm-standby integration fix `ec64ea05e`: public MCP ingress now
follows the Cloud claim guard; MCP and discovery paths return 503
instead of SPA HTML while unclaimed. Event polling checks the in-memory
claim before reading the persisted experimental setting. All 97 focused
OAuth/Cloud tests and server typecheck pass, including new request and
timer regressions for idle-before-claim and resume-after-claim behavior.
Fresh review is 5/5 with no unresolved threads, and all security scans
pass on this final head. All browser shards, typecheck, build, canary
installation and other test groups passed on the first attempt. The
unchanged Cursor sandbox default-command test timed out at 10 seconds;
the exact test passed locally without edits in 587 ms. The single
failed-job retry passed, with the original failure retained in workflow
37500711895. All 54 final-head checks pass on
`ec64ea05e9a03e2179d4e2f84c2de03761f7ce26` (two optional Storybook jobs
are intentionally skipped).

- Final master integration `8457828fc`: merged foundation #14846 and
current master, preserving the invitation changes and all 33 files from
the two newer upstream changes. No migration renumbering was required.
All 95 focused OAuth/Cloud integration tests, full recursive typecheck
and token gates pass. All CI gates passed on that integration head;
review identified the warm-standby issue fixed above.

- Security-review fix `8c1d0b696`: commit shared global/per-source
admission before outbound CIMD work, preserve failed-attempt receipts,
and validate resource/scope before fetching. Added migration
`0305_chubby_vin_gonzales.sql` and six concurrent/adversarial regression
cases. All 69 OAuth/metadata tests, 26 migration checks, full recursive
typecheck and production build pass. The security scanner passed that
commit. Follow-up `87f9658e7` limits only actual cache-miss fetches; 18
authorization requests sharing one proxy across two service instances
use just two fetches. All 70 OAuth/metadata tests and server typecheck
pass after that refinement. Final follow-up `8ebeae84c` reports
admission-storage failures as retryable HTTP 503 instead of invalid
client metadata. Its regression proves no outbound request before
admission and successful retry after storage recovers. All 71
OAuth/metadata tests and server typecheck pass. Final-head security
scanning passes; Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved findings. CI passed
all browser shards, typecheck, build, token gates and canary
installation. One unchanged adapter-utils bridge test raced a
response-file write (expected a JSON error, received the safe
file-changed error). The exact test passed locally without edits. The
single failed-job retry passed; the original failure is retained in
workflow 37490609192. All 54 checks now pass on final head
`8ebeae84ca77c0cf7ac12c2006f0f8743fe50e0b`, with security scan and fresh
Greptile 5/5 and no unresolved threads. Foundation #14846 subsequently
merged as `e34abee670069cca84afb2efb86041bce7dccbec`; the final
integration above now targets master.

- Integration with current master: preserved the new Connections source
filters and pagination, kept all eval suites, and regenerated the
consent/device snapshots as migrations 0303/0304. All four MCP migration
SQL hashes are unchanged from the staging versions. Full recursive
typecheck and production build, 132 focused UI tests (including catalog
filtering), 89 server authorization/settings tests, 26 migration tests,
120 eval calibration tests and token gates pass. Review follow-up
`4820ce74c` also keeps active assistant grants in Installed, with
pending/error recovery and revocation/company-isolation coverage. All 76
setup/catalog tests, UI typecheck and token gates pass after that fix.
The unchanged signoff browser test timed out waiting for a heartbeat in
CI at `4820ce74c`; the exact test passed locally without code changes,
and the preceding CI head passed that shard. That same unchanged test
failed at the reviewer stage in the next CI run. All five signoff tests
passed three times locally (15/15), without test changes. All eight
browser shards pass at final head `8ebeae84c`; no browser-test edits or
failed-browser-job retries were needed.

- Setup-page refinement at `9ab009178`: all 17 focused setup/consent
tests pass, along with UI typecheck, production build, Storybook build
and token gates. Browser exercised the shared prompt preview and client
tab switching, and the updated InvitationCopied Storybook interaction
checks its clipboard fixture. All final-head CI checks pass at
`9ab009178`, with no unresolved review findings. Deployed successfully
to Butter in
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/actions/runs/37475189524.
Verified the actual page, tab switching and line styling, removed
actions/copy, and successful native copy/paste of the complete Butter
invitation into a local-only test field. The existing Claude grant was
left intact.
- Consent follow-up at `dc8e9fd11`: all 10 consent tests and token gates
pass. UI typecheck and production build passed again at `4e4d5e4d9`;
Storybook build and eval-helper typecheck passed for `28101cf91`.
Follow-ups let the primary button wrap on narrow screens, preserve a
distinct callback URL, and use only bundled icons to avoid pre-consent
requests to client-selected sites. Browser-verified the real consent
component in desktop and 320px mobile stories, including default
selection, write access and preserved opt-out. Updated E2E
heading/default-selection helpers. All CI checks passed at `dc8e9fd11`,
with review 5/5 and no unresolved threads. The Butter preview
publication needed a retry because npm initially accepted the DB package
before making it visible; the retry succeeded and `dc8e9fd11` deployed.
Verified a fresh, unapproved native Codex CIMD request on Butter:
default organization/write selection, known-client heading and icon,
distinct callback origin, and removed creation action. No grant was
approved for this UI check. Prior paid runs below retain their exact
source provenance; this UI-only follow-up did not rerun paid
qualification.
- Source-pinned paid matrix at
`2992ef2710f47230e7f484c709c6ba02524f884c`: **15/15 passed**, five cases
each on GPT-5.4 Mini, Claude Haiku and Sonnet. Campaign
`local-2026-10-06T02-41-14-462Z`. Covers cold start, existing config,
unavailable host, denied consent and reconnect/later retrieval, with
independent configuration/grant/task/run/document assertions. Original
failures, transcripts, source fingerprints and billing remain retained.
- Final instruction follow-up `cda8178af`: **3/3 cold starts passed** on
Mini, Haiku and Sonnet. Campaign `local-2026-10-06T02-58-30-041Z`.
Latest `0637b9f1c` shares that same guidance across HTML, Markdown and
manual UI after review; generated Markdown is verified byte-identical to
the paid-evaluated version. Shared build, server/UI typechecks, token
gates and 63 auth/metadata tests passed again. Every CI gate passed at
prior HEAD `0637b9f1c`, with review 5/5 and no unresolved threads.
- Other focused checks: 11 CLI credential/refresh-lock tests, 120 eval
calibration tests, server/UI/eval typechecks, token gates and Storybook
build passed. Full recursive typecheck and production build passed
during implementation; CI also passed them at `2992ef271`.
- Local full-suite limitations: a large-file Git streaming test times
out on this Mac, and broader CLI/route runs hit DB hook timeouts. Fresh
MCP reruns passed, and the corresponding CI groups passed. No claim that
the local full suite is green.
- Actual clients: Codex 0.153.4 and Claude Code 2.1.245 reach CIMD
consent; device CLI reaches verification/consent. New grants await human
approval. Existing local OpenCode retrieved a saved result in a fresh
conversation through its previously approved grant.
- Fresh OpenCode 1.18.17 on Butter: started with no MCP config, received
the exact copied invitation, read public setup, configured its server
and started PKCE consent. Its shell command timed out; background retry
reached the client's own callback deadline while approval remained
pending. Latest instructions cover that handoff. **No completed Butter
read/delegation/result retrieval is claimed.**
- Cloud companion
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/672 passes
checks/review and deployed. Anonymous setup and device-protocol routing
verified. Core `2992ef271` deployed successfully and the actual Claude
web flow now reaches consent. Its extra JWT-bearer metadata is filtered
to implemented grants; unsupported token grants remain rejected. Final
`0637b9f1c` deployed successfully to Butter in
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/actions/runs/37409195300;
live HTML and Markdown both contain the final guidance. The superseded
instruction-only build was canceled before deployment. This is a
core-only staging preview; private Cloud plugins are omitted. ChatGPT
web is signed out, so browser connector use is unverified.
- Screenshot gallery begins at Butter's dashboard and distinguishes real
setup/pending consent from local reuse and fixtures. It records the
timeout finding. New persistent access needs human confirmation before
the remaining actual-client acceptance work.
- Manual path: Connectors → Assistant Connection (MCP) → Copy invitation
→ paste into assistant → configure and start authorization → sign in and
approve → verify `paperclip_connection` → delegate → retrieve the saved
report later.
- Plan and instructions: `doc/plans/2026-10-05-assistant-invitations.md`
and `doc/public-mcp.md`.

## Risks

- Apply additive, replay-safe migration `0304_curvy_shadow_king.sql`
before using device authorization. The public setup link carries no
credential. Device codes and tokens stay private; neither sharing
instructions nor installing a plugin authorizes access.
- Apply additive migration `0305_chubby_vin_gonzales.sql` before
deploying the shared metadata admission gate. It retains at most 60
short-lived, hashed-source receipts per instance and rejects excess
attempts with 429.
- CIMD metadata fetching is a new external-input boundary. It requires
HTTPS, exact client ID and redirect validation, bounded responses and
guarded DNS/network access. Client names remain self-reported.
- Device support is per-instance. The central Cloud broker retains its
existing grant support. Host installation and tool reload capabilities
vary by client; instructions describe manual settings and restart
requirements.

- Consent names the registered client in its heading and displays its
identifying origin below. Known-origin icons are bundled; all other
origins show a neutral site icon without contacting client-selected
sites. Client names are self-reported; the callback origin is the
recipient check. The Cloud chooser also displays the original client and
receiving origin before tenant handoff.

- A user who accepts the preselected write permission can create tasks
and comments. Task creation and comments can start or wake agents and
use execution budget; the consent label uses the concise wording
explicitly requested by the maintainer. Scope requests, role checks, and
the final Connect action still apply.
- Migration `0303_supreme_garia.sql` adds one nullable UUID column with
`IF NOT EXISTS`. Requests without a company restriction keep the
direct-instance picker. The binding stays recorded if its company is
deleted; consent then fails closed.
- Deploy tenant support before the Cloud broker sends `company_id`.
Unknown or inaccessible organizations must never fall back to a
different company.
- The setting defaults off. Disabling access does not cancel work
already delegated. Existing tokens and unexpired subscriptions can
resume when enabled again; revocation remains separate.
- The catalog entry is visible for discovery while the feature is off.
Setup instructions, OAuth, and tool execution remain gated. No access is
granted by viewing the entry.
- Assistant sign-in starts in the external client so it owns PKCE and
callback state. Client command syntax can change and links to official
setup documentation are included.
- An authenticated instance and valid public URL are required. Hosting,
paid execution, and store publication remain separate rollout steps.

DottaandPaperclip e34abee670 feat(mcp): connect assistants to a team with user OAuth (#14846)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip gives teams durable tasks, agent execution, budgets, and
approvals.
> - People also use assistants in Codex, Claude, and other MCP clients.
> - Those assistants need a scoped connection that preserves the
person’s permissions and attribution.
> - Delegating a task must not turn the assistant into the assigned
agent.
> - This PR adds opt-in user OAuth, ten first-party tools, browser
consent, and workflow packages.
> - Paid product evals verify the resulting tasks, documents,
attribution, retries, and access boundaries.
> - The team keeps working after the assistant conversation ends.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

A person cannot connect an external assistant to an existing team
through browser consent and safely delegate durable work as themselves.

**Proposed solution**

Expose an opt-in `/mcp/paperclip` endpoint with individually described
first-party operations. Bind every connection to a person, client,
company, resource, and scopes. Reuse domain authorization and
scheduling. Package shared team-review, delegation, and follow-up
workflows for OpenAI/Codex and Claude.

**Alternatives considered**

Related PRs #9393 and #12549 cover earlier remote MCP and board-operator
approaches. This change uses user OAuth and a bounded public catalog. It
does not expose a generic executor, operator administration, static
shared board credentials, or external agent execution. Registry listing
work in #9851 is a separate distribution step.

**Roadmap alignment**

This maintainer-requested implementation extends the governed MCP
gateway, activity attribution, durable work products, and hosted
deployment direction in `ROADMAP.md`. It implements the first release of
the saved design plan; external agent participation and granted
third-party tools remain later releases.

## What Changed

- Add MCP 2.0 discovery and task status/comment/document Events on the
same authenticated endpoint. Persist subscriptions and delivery
receipts, verify HTTPS callbacks, sign Standard Webhooks, encrypt
callback material, recheck permissions/Cloud membership, and bound
retries/expiry. Older MCP clients keep their existing tools.
- Add discovery, dynamic client registration, S256 PKCE, resource
validation, rotating refresh tokens, revocation, and company consent.
Store credentials as hashes and recheck membership at execution.
- Add tools for connection identity, agents/projects, task
search/read/create, human comments, documents/deliverables, and
pending-approval links. Preserve current domain permissions and
scheduling.
- Add durable mutation receipts across reconnects. Matching retries
replay results; uncertain outcomes keep the same request ID and require
inspection.
- Add consent and connection-management pages, OAuth log redaction,
shared plugin workflows, and separate OpenAI/Codex and Claude package
outputs.
- Add eight paid Product E2E cases across three models, independent
durable-state grading, usage evidence, cleanup, and report integration.
Add task-document guidance and regenerate the runner capability
inventories.
- Add migrations 0301 and 0302, the dated implementation plan, result
notes, and direct-client setup instructions in `doc/public-mcp.md`.

## Verification

- Merge integration `e180b1948`: resolved conflicts with current master,
preserved both eval registries, regenerated capability catalogs, and
regenerated migrations as 0301/0302 while keeping the original
replay-safe SQL byte-identical. Local migration safety/snapshot tests
(26), MCP/OAuth tests (38), redaction/OpenAPI tests (71), and eval
catalog/grading tests (198) pass. Token and capability gates pass. Full
recursive typecheck passed. Fresh Greptile review is 5/5 with no
unresolved findings. CI is green on this exact head (55 successes, two
intentional skips, one neutral result): one unchanged Cursor sandbox
test timed out at 10 seconds, then passed locally in 856 ms. A single
retry of that failed shard and the aggregate workflow passed. Merge
remains blocked on the repository code-owner approval rule.

Earlier checks passed at `6aa0962d4fb715f2190bb7bb22efacab2e58495d`: 55
successes, two intentional skips and one neutral result. [The earlier CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36901592350)
includes all test shards, browser tests, typecheck, build and canary dry
run. Greptile was 5/5 on that commit with no unresolved review threads.
GitHub still requires code-owner review under the repository merge
rules; passing checks do not bypass that approval. Paid source
fingerprints remain separate below and in the dated result note.

- Paid Events qualification passes **3/3**: GPT-5.4 Mini, Claude Haiku
4.5 and Claude Sonnet 4.6. Each uses a real public HTTPS callback,
signature verification and report retrieval in a fresh conversation. A
final Mini regression passes after the quota/status fixes. All evidence
validates. Bounded tunnel startup retries occur before provider calls
and remain visible; failed earlier attempts retain their original
grades.
- The earlier complete seven-case matrix passes **21/21**, with a
separate **3/3** delegation regression. Two preceding matrices also
passed 21/21 each. A complete 24-cell matrix including Events has not
been run. [The dated
results](doc/plans/2026-10-01-public-mcp-paid-eval-results.md) retain
exact source fingerprints, failures, model IDs and partial costs.
- Node 24: repository-wide `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass
after merging master. Server typecheck passes after the final
quota/status changes. Eval typecheck and all 892 eval-support tests
pass.
- All 33 real MCP/OAuth tests pass. The preceding combined MCP,
redaction, private-address and DNS-rebinding run passed 129 tests; two
later MCP regressions cover quota reuse and unchanged-status
suppression. All 28 adjacent issue-tree/stale-lock route tests pass. CI
then found a null checkout result in the existing concurrent-workspace
path; logging now uses optional status access. All 12 closed-workspace
tests and all 33 MCP tests pass after that correction. The exact-start
event calibration exposed a timestamp gap; scanning now includes the
subscription start, with all 33 MCP tests and server typecheck passing.
These two narrow corrections follow the paid regression.
- A real Core → Cloud → Core authority round trip passes OAuth, MCP 2.0
subscription/delivery, current membership loss, unsubscribe, legacy SDK
tools, refresh and revocation. Its callback transport is a fixture with
independent HMAC verification. The paid Events campaigns separately
prove public HTTPS delivery.
- Earlier component qualification passed UI 7,117 tests, CLI 502, shared
832, skills catalog 20, database 160 and OpenAPI 10. Token gates, module
boundaries, migration order and plugin regeneration passed. CI covers
general/serialized suites, eight browser shards, runner checks,
typecheck, build and canary dry run.
- **Local full-suite limitation:** the earlier monolithic run was not
clean. It encountered overlapping schema rebuilding, Mac database
shared-memory limits and isolated CLI/fixture failures. Targeted reruns
passed. The existing >32 MiB Git filename stress test still hit its
300-second Mac timeout. The additional serialized sweep stopped after 62
passing suites once CI passed. Original failures and partial logs
remain; this PR does not claim a wholly green local monolithic run.
- Local Codex CLI and Claude Code OAuth login and MCP SDK
interoperability were verified. Public-store installation, actual
ChatGPT Work Cloud Events UI, staging HTTPS client behavior and hosted
newcomer provisioning remain release gates.

Enablement is moving to **Settings → Experimental → Assistant
connections (MCP)** in the stacked follow-up
[#14933](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/14933). Merge
both for the intended setup experience. This foundation branch alone
still uses `PAPERCLIP_PUBLIC_MCP_ENABLED=true`. After deployment, set
`PAPERCLIP_PUBLIC_URL` to the authenticated instance's HTTPS origin, and
connect to `/mcp/paperclip`. Select a team and allow writes in browser
consent. Configure an available agent and budget, then delegate and
retrieve results later. For Events, rescan the deployed plugin catalog
in ChatGPT Work Cloud; the host supplies its webhook credentials when
the user asks to watch a task. See [the setup
runbook](doc/public-mcp.md).

## Risks

- Events are at-least-once and may arrive out of order. No replay cursor
is advertised. Clients must refresh finite subscriptions, read current
state and avoid comment feedback loops. Callback material uses the
instance secrets master key; hosted subscriptions require the updated
Cloud broker and are bounded to five minutes/the access proof expiry.
- ChatGPT Work Cloud/dot event UI, plugin rescan and a hosted staging
subscription remain deployment gates. Local signed-webhook and paid
model evidence does not claim those surfaces have been exercised.
- Disabled by default. Merging adds schema and opt-in code; it does not
deploy a public endpoint, publish a store listing, create a team, or
start paid agents.
- Migrations 0301 and 0302 are additive and idempotent. Their SQL is
unchanged from the earlier preview numbers, so hash-aware upgrade
reconciliation preserves prior staging applications. Normal instance
upgrades must apply it before enabling MCP.
- Task creation and comments can schedule paid agent work. Consent and
tool descriptions disclose that effect. Revocation blocks future calls
but does not undo delegated work.
- Public deployments need edge rate limits and credential-safe logging.
Internal dispatch is restricted to the closed catalog and carries a
request-local verified actor.
- Hosted onboarding requires the companion Cloud broker, encryption-key
configuration, and tenant rollout. Self-hosted direct connections can
use this PR alone.
- Store acceptance and agent-mode participation are not claimed.
Checked-in plugin endpoints are development defaults; rebuild packages
for a real deployment before installation.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 in Codex, with reasoning, tool use, and code execution. A
more specific serving version and context-window size were not exposed
by the session. Paid eval models: `gpt-5.4-mini-2026-03-17`,
`claude-haiku-4-5-20251001`, and `claude-sonnet-4-6`.

DottaandPaperclip 0e0b63e5a5 feat(connections): add experimental task-pinned AI routing (#14967)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - AI Connections separate account access from models and harnesses.
> - A pool must act as one connection while retaining each task’s
account.
> - Core must enforce member access and preserve session and recovery
rules.
> - A plugin supplies rotation policy without receiving credentials.
> - This change adds durable routing and native connector setup and
management.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

AI Connections, Connectors, plugins, run dispatch, and session
compatibility.

**Problem or motivation**

Operators need to rotate new tasks across saved accounts while each task
keeps its account and session. Pool setup must fit the existing
connector catalog and account workflow.

**Proposed solution**

Add an experimental router binding, a capability-gated plugin hook, and
transactional task pins. Plugins declare native pooled connectors
through `aiConnectionRouter`. Core hosts the existing-account picker,
ordering step, and account settings. Related usage contract: #14936.
Companion private plugin:
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/pull/643.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends Apps and AI Connections. Core supplies generic enforcement
and native connector UI; the private plugin owns rotation and quota
policy. The prior duplicate search found no matching router
implementation.

## What Changed

- Add a router binding without changing existing concrete bindings. Keep
the instance flag and new pools disabled by default. Require manual
operator configuration. Show no routing toggle in Experimental settings
on either open-source or Cloud installs, even after routing is enabled.
- Persist company-scoped pools, one shared cursor per pool, and pins
keyed by company, pool, agent, and task. Commit pins and cursor advances
together with revision checks and bounded retries. Persist run-ID
affinity before allocation.
- Pass only authorized metadata and normalized usage to plugins. Core
retains credential handling, member access checks, runtime
qualification, and recovery evidence. Probe outside locks with a shared
15-second budget and freshness cache.
- Resolve routing before credential preparation and backend selection.
Preserve pins through turns, session resets, removed members, and quota
waits. Retain admitted recovery after disable or uninstall.
- Separate credential session epochs from token generations. Verified
refresh preserves the epoch; reconnect and manual replacement change it.
Include the credential slot ID in session and usage-cache identity, so
reconnecting an indexed legacy account invalidates its old session even
when both epochs are zero.
- Validate pool member installations before accepting saved-agent
bindings and recheck compatibility when the harness changes. Install
only authorized members in the new-agent transaction and record their
IDs in local activity. Pool membership cannot install a restricted
shared connection.
- Preserve pool bindings when agents hire teammates through either
creation API or native caller runtime inheritance. Block stale manager
credential references; retain explicit child authentication precedence
and reject incompatible inherited pools.
- Add native connector registration through plugin metadata. Reuse the
Connectors catalog, setup header, account header, sidebar, dialogs, and
usage display. Setup selects and orders saved connections. Advanced
settings hold usage rules and member runtime defaults. New-account setup
opens in another tab.
- Use revision-checked pool archival from the Connectors catalog and
account page. Keep task pins, cursors, recovery evidence, and underlying
connections. Reject ordinary connection updates or removals that bypass
pool revisions.
- Add pool selectors, composer models, override notes, quota status, run
details, activity records, and local run-log records. Keep
session-adoption copy minimal.
- Show **Used by** below the pool connections. List current company
agents with shared avatars and profile links. Include paused agents;
exclude terminated agents and agents using another pool.
- Add Core stories for the generic connector workflow and runtime
surfaces. Cloud stories reuse these production routes and tokens through
a preview-only alias.

## Verification

- Final head `73cb953bca30ed83e4505dd820edd9b5edffd28b`: full workspace
`pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `pnpm check:token-gates` pass
locally.
- All 422 focused connector/settings/shared-contract/migration tests and
all 156 database-backed AI connection, hiring, reconnect, and
durable-routing cases pass (69 hiring cases rerun after the final
auth-precedence fix). The merged shared contract retains connection
instructions and pool metadata. The pool migration is generated at
sequence 0299 after the latest upstream migrations; this PR makes no
lockfile changes.
- All four full-app Playwright tests pass on the final head after a cold
restart and migration, against the installed private plugin and isolated
database, with no route or pool-API mocks. They cover hidden routing
controls after manual opt-in, native pool creation, ordering, membership
edits, rename, paused defaults, enabling/save/refresh persistence, stale
edits, cancellation/removal, preserved underlying accounts, unavailable
routers, and Used by avatars and profile links. Exact command:
`PAPERCLIP_CONNECTION_POOL_E2E=1
AI_CONNECTIONS_TEST_COMPANY_ID=a37b9625-5ecf-4e29-8081-04df3d6e7d6f
AI_CONNECTIONS_TEST_URL=http://127.0.0.1:3108 pnpm exec playwright test
--config tests/ai-connections-app/playwright.config.ts
connection-pools.spec.ts`.
- [Native setup, ordering, and management
screenshots](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/14967#issuecomment-6006976278)
address the review follow-up. [Earlier selector, quota, and run-detail
screenshots](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/pull/14967#issuecomment-5971537316)
show the runtime surfaces. Core previews: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui
storybook`, then **Connectors / Pool host** or **AI Connections /
Connection pools**. Cloud owns its host-backed plugin stories; both
repositories’ Operator Setup Required story assertions pass.
- Live acceptance used OpenAI/Codex and Anthropic/Claude ACPX, resumed
both exact sessions after restart, preserved pinned accounts through
explicit reset and controlled quota deferral/recovery, and committed
only two allocations across fourteen runs. A later UI-created task test
again rotated OpenAI then Anthropic and resumed OpenAI through
follow-up/restart/quota recovery. That later Anthropic execution was
blocked by its saved OAuth token expiring (provider 401). No live usage
probes ran.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` was attempted earlier and did not
complete because of macOS embedded PostgreSQL bootstrap/shared-memory
failures and the 40,000-file Git fixture timeout. The focused database
suites above now pass; full-suite verification is provided by the split
CI lanes. The preceding CI run had one runtime readiness timeout; it
passes locally both alone and inside the larger runtime suite. That
larger local suite also encountered an embedded PostgreSQL setup failure
and two macOS temporary-path alias assertions; those two assertions pass
with canonical TMPDIR=/private/tmp. All final-head CI checks are
terminal green, including full general/serialized server suites, Runner
checks, browser E2E shards, canary verification, build, and typecheck.
Greptile is 5/5 on that exact head with no unresolved threads.

## Risks

- The migration adds routing tables and a credential epoch column.
Install the private plugin only with the compatible Core contract.
- Routing and each pool require opt-in. Production distribution and
fleet defaults remain unchanged.
- Unknown usage stays eligible. Known pinned exhaustion waits; revoked
access requires operator repair.
- Legacy adapters require compatible members. Runner model and effort
overrides remain limited by qualified backend support.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository editing, code
execution, and browser testing. The exact deployment model ID and
context window are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip b43073d11f feat(connections): sync and group accounts managed by aggregators (#15254)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections give agents governed access to external tools.
> - Aggregator gateways can expose accounts that users already connected
upstream.
> - The Apps catalog did not show those accounts or their current
provider status.
> - Separate cards and setup tasks also made account ownership unclear.
> - This pull request discovers upstream accounts and groups them under
one app card.
> - Users can find connected apps while each provider keeps control of
its accounts.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Connections across the database, shared contracts, server, and board UI.

**Problem or motivation**

Users cannot see which apps are connected through a saved aggregator
gateway. Native and upstream accounts need one app card. Discovery must
preserve company, user, gateway, and credential boundaries.

**Proposed solution**

Sync account metadata from Composio, Arcade, and supported Executor
gateways. Keep upstream account management in each provider. Use source
chips and search to browse the catalog. Preserve native setup and the
gateway's existing access policy.

**Alternatives considered**

Creating a local executable connection for each upstream account would
duplicate authorization state. Using an agent task for routine Composio
setup would add an unnecessary step. The board now calls the saved
gateway directly for that setup.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the shipped Connected Apps and MCP Tool Gateway features in
ROADMAP.md. The duplicate search found no open PR for managed account
discovery.

Related work: Refs #13755, Refs #13941, Refs #14725, Refs #13855. Open
PR #12906 covers adjacent toolkit routing work.

## What Changed

- Add provider-neutral discovery, sync, and refresh APIs. Preserve the
Composio API paths.
- Cache observations by company, saved gateway, viewing user, and
credential version. Retain stale observations after failed or incomplete
scans.
- Add optional Arcade account sync credentials in the vault. Discover
Executor accounts through its supported inventory interface.
- Group native and upstream accounts in one app card. Imported account
menus open their provider. Gateway menus own refresh and sync setup.
- Add Paperclip, Composio, Arcade, Installed, and All chips. Show 50
catalog entries per page. Keep connected accounts above discovery. Keep
explicit provider searches scoped.
- Simplify Composio app setup and refresh its connected app list on the
gateway Permissions page.
- Add a compact agent access card and task creation defaults for
connection setup. Preserve explicit blocks and approval policies.
- Add two replay-safe migrations, service and UI tests, Storybook
journeys, and acceptance stories.

## Verification

- Passed the repository typecheck, full build, token gates, and
migration ordering check.
- Passed the focused provider adapter, connection interaction, and
catalog tests after rebasing onto master.
- Passed all nine database sync and migration replay tests using a
disposable database on the test-drive PostgreSQL cluster. Removed that
database after the run.
- Verified Arcade cursor pagination against its official Go SDK and
passed all eight adapter tests, including short and incomplete pages.
- Passed all 45 interaction tests after making the exact requested tools
and their Allowed/Ask first permissions visible before granting access.
Verified the compact card in Storybook.
- Passed the complete UI suite on the final code: 683 files and 7,432
tests, including the corrected Composio destination assertions. Passed
130 focused tests for the UUID, management-link, and health-status
corrections.
- Passed 22 Composio setup/sync tests, 23 connection-intent service
tests, and the connection migration test in separate disposable
databases. Database startup alone was substituted; the suites exercised
their real SQL and services.
- Passed all 10 OpenAPI route checks and the full-stack
connection-intent browser test, including scoped consent, agent
continuation, and task completion.
- The local full runner encountered embedded PostgreSQL startup failures
on this loaded macOS host. The earlier in-flight run also held the
pre-fix Arcade transform; a fresh run of the final provider suite
passes. The final-head CI is queued during GitHub’s active Actions
incident: https://www.githubstatus.com/. The previous run also lost
several runners simultaneously; its real catalog assertion failures are
fixed and the fresh complete UI suite passes.
- Tested the real test-drive server in the embedded browser with a live
Composio gateway. Detected Airtable and Circleback. Verified refresh
progress, account rows, source chips, search scope, and 50-entry
pagination.
- Arcade and Executor coverage uses provider fixtures. Live credentials
were unavailable.
- Storybook builds successfully and includes grouped native/provider
accounts, stale and unavailable discovery, optional Arcade setup, and
mobile states. The acceptance document records the simulated and live
coverage separately.

- Greptile reviewed final commit
`217b024c27b5933e773ce9419c4e92b1032042c6` at 5/5. All six review
threads are resolved, security scans pass, and the PR has no merge
conflicts. The outstanding remote checks are `ci / Select trusted
runner` and `review`, queued by GitHub. They need to complete before
merge.

## Risks

- Provider response changes can break inventory discovery. Failed scans
retain observations and show stale status.
- Composio scans only the supported catalog and can take time. Large
inventories run in the background with progress and a bounded lease.
- Arcade requires a project API key and user ID when the gateway cannot
supply them. This key is used only for discovery.
- Executor discovery depends on the server's exposed inventory tools.
Unsupported servers report unavailable discovery.
- Cached account rows do not grant access or create executable
connections. Gateway policies still govern tool use. Account deletion
and per-app authorization remain upstream.
- The migrations add tables and one nullable column. Replay preserves
existing rows and company-scoped foreign keys.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6. The session does not expose a more
specific serving model ID or context limit. Used reasoning, repository
tools, code execution, and browser verification.

DottaandPaperclip eb049aebf2 feat(skills): let agents update company skills safely (#15049)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is an open source control plane for AI-agent companies.
> - Company skills give agents reusable work instructions.
> - Skill Studio can edit skill files and save version history.
> - Agents can create a skill, but they do not have a first-class update
tool.
> - An agent update needs a version check and safe retry behavior to
prevent lost edits.
> - This pull request adds `update_skill` through the existing company
skill file API.
> - The change keeps company policy, version history, and audit records
in one path.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: the server API, shared validation, and runner tool
catalog.

**Problem or motivation**

An agent can create a company skill but cannot update its `SKILL.md`
through a first-class tool. An unguarded retry can also create duplicate
versions or overwrite a newer edit.

**Proposed solution**

Add `update_skill` with a required current version ID and a retry key.
Route it through the existing skill file API. Reject stale versions and
changed-input retries. Save the version and audit event together.

**Alternatives considered**

A separate write endpoint would duplicate the Skill Studio mutation path
and policy checks. This PR reuses that path instead.

**Roadmap alignment**

This work extends Skills Manager and Skill Studio, which are listed in
`ROADMAP.md`.

**Additional context**

The tool accepts a complete `SKILL.md`, not a partial patch. Callers
must read the current version before they edit it.

## What Changed

- Add optional version and retry fields to the existing skill file
update contract.
- Add a guarded API update with a stable retry receipt and attributed
audit event.
- Add `update_skill` to native and semantic runner tool catalogs, with
mode and policy gates.
- Add unit, integration, protocol, and semantic-tool regression
coverage.
- Document agent use and extend the OpenAPI request contract.

## Verification

- Focused tests and direct server and runner TypeScript checks passed
before this PR.
- `git diff --check` passed after the rebase onto `master`.
- CI passed on the latest PR head, including the full test matrix,
typecheck, and build. Local full typecheck and build stopped because
`cargo` is not installed. The local full test run ended without a
verdict.
- No dedicated end-to-end eval scenario was added or run. The protocol
coverage and semantic-tool test cover the new action deterministically.
- Reviewers can read a skill version, call `update_skill`, repeat the
same key, then try a stale version and a changed-input key. Only the
first edit must create a new version.

## Risks

- File writes and database transactions must stay in sync when a write
fails. The integration tests cover failed writes and retry behavior, but
CI must verify them on the PR head.
- Existing Skill Studio callers do not send the new optional
coordination fields. Their request shape remains valid.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex CLI assisted with this change. The runner did not expose
the exact model ID or context window. The agent used code execution and
repository tools.

DottaandPaperclip 7d59de6113 feat(connections): probe provider usage limits on demand (#14936)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections store the AI accounts used by legacy and native runners.
> - Subscription accounts can reach session, weekly, model, or paid
usage limits.
> - Operators need to read these limits for a specific stored account
before making a routing decision.
> - This pull request adds an on-demand usage probe to the connection
service and account detail.
> - The result preserves provider limits, reset times, paid usage, and
unknown values for later consumers.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Shared contracts, the connection service and API, and the account detail
UI.

**Problem or motivation**

Managed AI accounts lack a common operation to read their current usage
limits. A local harness probe can read a different login from the
account selected for an agent.

**Proposed solution**

Add `aiConnectionService.probeUsage()` and a board-only connection usage
endpoint. Probe the selected credential grant on request. Support Codex,
Claude, and Grok subscriptions, plus OpenRouter API key limits.

**Alternatives considered**

Harness-specific automatic polling would couple the read to execution
and can read ambient credentials. This change uses the managed
connection credential and leaves scheduling and admission decisions to
later work.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing Personal & Shared AI Accounts capability. It
adds no routing or quota enforcement. Related: Refs #14459 for managed
OpenAI quota reads; Refs #14781 and Refs #13379 for downstream pacing
and budget work. This operation reads one requested account across all
three subscription providers.

## What Changed

- Add typed usage snapshots and a probe capability flag to managed AI
connections.
- Normalize Codex, Claude, Grok, and OpenRouter responses. Keep model
scopes, provider admission, reset periods, and paid allowances separate.
Preserve unknown values.
- Enforce company membership, credential audience, grant identity, and
connection lifecycle before reading the stored secret.
- Add a board-only `GET
/api/companies/:companyId/ai-connections/:connectionId/usage` endpoint
with `no-store` responses.
- Add manual **Check usage** and **Refresh** actions to account details.
Show compact usage bars, resets, admission and overage status; remove
repeated descriptions and account-default copy. Clear previous results
during a new request or error.
- Add Storybook previews using the production account components for all
four providers, initial checks, loading, and permission errors.
- Add provider, authorization, runner selection, API, and UI coverage.
Document provider sources and live qualification.

## Verification

- Initial provider, authorization, selection, API, and UI validation
passed (96 focused tests): `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/ai-connection-usage.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/ai-connections.test.ts
ui/src/components/ai-connections/AiConnectionUsagePanel.test.tsx
server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts`.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passes for the initial implementation. After
simplifying the UI, 9 usage-panel and date-helper tests, UI typecheck,
token gates, and Storybook build pass. The initial feature module
boundary check also passed.
- Real Codex, Claude, and Grok credentials were saved to encrypted
disposable connections. The actual usage HTTP route returned 200 with
`status: ok`. Legacy and native runner selection checks passed. The
tests started no model turn and exchanged no refresh token. The
disposable databases and vaults were removed.
- Live Claude responses added structured scoped limits. Live Grok
responses omitted included-plan usage. Tests now cover both shapes and
preserve the Grok omission as unknown.
- The full workspace build passes. A full local test run hit a heartbeat
feedback timeout. That case passes in isolation. The duplicate local run
was stopped after all remote checks passed. The Slack ordering and
OpenCode transport CI flakes also pass in isolation and on the CI rerun.


- Current head: `ff3d479029a1c4248190323e221b2803cfb0d79d`. All 54
active checks pass. Two Storybook checks are intentionally skipped by
the workflow. Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved review findings; the
branch is mergeable.

## Risks

- Subscription usage endpoints can change. Credentials can lack
usage-read permission. The probe returns explicit errors without fresh
limits in these cases.
- A successful probe can contain partial data. Missing utilization or
admission remains unknown. An enabled paid-usage switch does not prove a
funded balance.
- This change adds no migration. It does not change runner admission or
automatic provider selection. Provider requests use fixed endpoints,
disabled redirects, bounded response sizes, and a 15-second deadline.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with reasoning, file editing, shell execution, and
HTTP tools. The session does not expose the exact runtime model variant
or context window size. Real provider credentials were used only for the
authorized live checks.

DottaandPaperclip 6c1a75da49 feat(connections): make AgentMail a default connection with inline setup (#14772)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Connections give agents access to external services.
> - AgentMail needs both a saved key and an inbox assigned to the agent.
> - Chat requests offered a setup link instead of an inline card and
could treat a saved key as complete.
> - Inbox setup also hid address conflicts behind a generic server error
and a separate review step.
> - This pull request makes AgentMail a default connection, adds the
inline card, reduces setup to two steps, and shows conflicts beside the
address.
> - Shared native dropdown styles also give every caret a consistent
inset.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

AgentMail requests in chat did not show a usable inline connection card.
Manual setup required extra screens, ignored saved account keys, and
could trap new-address setup in a locked inbox dropdown. Agent selectors
omitted the avatar from the selected value. A taken address could
produce an HTTP 403 from AgentMail and appear as an internal server
error. Native dropdown arrows also touched the right edge of their
fields.

**Expected behavior**

Make AgentMail available as a default connection. Ask for the API key
inline, with a direct link to its provider page. Default human access to
the company and agent access to the requesting agent. Resume the agent
only after an assigned inbox is active. Manual setup should ask for an
agent and email address, then finish. Address checks should run as the
user types. Taken addresses should show clickable alternatives. A domain
dropdown beside the name should prefer a verified custom domain. Setup
should suggest authorized saved AgentMail keys and show agent avatars in
the picker and selected value.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Ask an agent to connect AgentMail when it has no assigned inbox.
2. Check that an inline API-key card appears and links to the provider's
API-key page.
3. Open AgentMail setup, choose an agent, and request an address that is
already taken.
4. Correct the inline error, refresh, and finish setup with the same
request ID.
5. Inspect native dropdown carets in light, dark, disabled, and
right-to-left states.

Uses the bounded provider-error parser merged in #14768. Related work:
#13256 introduced AgentMail; #14725 expanded connection search.

## What Changed

- Stop recurring email queries for tasks that have no email thread.
Share the query between the thread provider and activity view. Keep
email-task updates and invalidation-based discovery.
- Make AgentMail available without the experimental chat setting. Keep
the catalog, setup and management routes, agent Channels tab, task email
feed, receiving worker, and agent tools available by default. Other
experimental chat providers stay gated.

- Make the email address and copy icon a single clickable action with
the shared Copied! confirmation. Add View inbox linking directly to the
matching AgentMail console inbox, with the address encoded as one URL
path segment.

- Reorganize inbox Settings around the copyable email address, usage
instructions, and receiving status. Move reconnect credentials into a
disclosure and separate the Disconnect action. Add production Settings
stories for active, paused, unassigned-address, revoked, webhook,
long-address, mobile, and reconnect states. Show repair controls when
the inbox has an error. Keep usage instructions tied to an active inbox
with an address.

- Add AgentMail channel intents and an inline key field with the direct
API-key URL.
- Keep setup and retry state tied to the interaction. Require an active
inbox for completion. Preserve company and agent access checks.
- Reduce manual setup to agent selection and email selection. Put the
domain dropdown beside the address and default to a verified custom
domain. Preserve explicit choices across reloads. Keep receiving
settings under Advanced options.
- Check the initial address and edits after a 350 ms pause. Abort
superseded requests and ignore stale responses. Show clickable
suggestions and retain known creation conflicts across reloads.
- Add a company-scoped, manager-only address check using the saved
credential. Search the visible inbox list instead of fetching an
uncreated inbox: live AgentMail retains negative lookups that can break
subsequent access-key creation. Unlisted addresses remain unknown;
creation is authoritative.
- Suggest labeled saved AgentMail keys in both manual setup and the
inline card. Filter by company, provider, active credential, and
current-user grants on the server. Prefer an account key and preserve
the selected key or an explicit new-key choice across refresh. Use
verified scope metadata and bounded concurrent checks for legacy keys.
Never return secret values.
- Catch an inbox-only key before the email step. Allow its existing
inbox only after an explicit choice. Recover old locked drafts at the
key picker. Save the replacement key before retiring an empty draft,
then use a new setup URL so refresh preserves the switched account; stop
if cleanup fails. Preserve already allocated addresses and their
original accounts.
- Use the shared AgentSelect in email setup. Show the canonical agent
avatar in each option and the selected value, including other consumers
of the shared component. Add regression coverage for legacy and current
Lucide agent-mention icon formats.
- Start each catalog Add connection with a fresh setup identity. Honor
Finish setup's exact draft/account/address instead of resuming an
unrelated browser draft. Return Cancel and Done to Connectors and Email
settings to the inbox. Group the task/thread explanation in a How it
Works card.
- Route AgentMail catalog removal through the email inbox control API,
including unfinished drafts. Refresh both the catalog and inbox views.
- Render each inbox management tab separately. Access uses the saved
account grants and agent controls; Conversations and Activity use the
shared persisted email feed. Activity lifecycle actions use the email
API. Reconnect returns to inbox Settings. Conversation failures show a
retry instead of a false empty state. Email delivery recovery stays in
the task.
- Map documented provider address conflicts to a field error. Preserve
actionable messages for other failures.
- Preserve non-secret draft fields across refresh, scoped to the
requested agent. Never save API keys in browser storage. Resume partial
inbox creation with the original agent, address, and request ID.
- Show an already-created address with explicit retry and new-address
recovery instead of locked inputs. Preserve the original inbox and
resumable draft when choosing another address. Distinguish runtime-key
404 errors and log safe provider status/operation/code.
- Apply final agent access once within email setup authorization for a
new account whose original installs are unchanged. Preserve later
permission edits and reused account installs. Support in-place retry of
progress loading.
- Let a failed inline setup change keys after retiring an empty draft.
Persist its replacement setup identity without storing secrets. Recover
a server-saved account when refresh interrupts the save response, while
preserving intentional account changes.
- Render the production setup in Storybook and add error, recovery, and
mobile states.
- Inset native select carets in shared CSS. Preserve custom icons,
listboxes, keyboard behavior, and forced-color controls.
- Add browser regression coverage and an AgentMail Product E2E case with
persisted-state and rendered-card evidence.

## Verification

- Full `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `pnpm check:token-gates`, and
`git diff --check` passed after the default-availability change.
- All 485 focused tests passed. These cover setup, management, catalog
and route gates, connection intents, email authorization, Cursor
execution, and the OpenAPI contract. All 39 email integration tests run
with the experimental chat setting off.
- The shared polling change passed four behavioral tests, UI typecheck
and build, and token gates.
- `tests/e2e/agentmail.spec.ts` passed with the actual server setting
off. This full-stack browser test uses simulated provider responses. It
covers catalog entry, saved keys, editable address and domain controls,
creation, conflicts, retry, all management tabs, clipboard feedback, the
provider link, and task email rendering.
- In the live local browser, Add connection reached the editable email
step with the saved account key. The verified custom domain was selected
by default. Both domain choices worked. The existing inbox Settings page
remained available. Both active inboxes completed new mail checks with
the setting off. No new provider inbox or email message was created for
this pass.
- Earlier live provider acceptance covered creation on a verified custom
domain, Finish connecting on the reported draft, successful mail checks
after refresh, and catalog removal of disposable draft and active
connections. Clicking the email address copied the exact address and
showed Copied!. View inbox opened the same inbox in AgentMail’s console.
No email messages were sent.
- Production setup and Settings Storybook builds and interactions
passed. Settings states include active, paused, unassigned, revoked,
webhook, long-address, mobile, and reconnect. Receiving and
revoked-access stories had zero accessibility violations.
- Full local `pnpm test:run` on an earlier revision completed with
14,709 passing, 87 skipped, and four transient failures. All four failed
cases passed in focused reruns without product changes. That serial full
local command was not repeated after each follow-up. The latest-head
full CI suite is the final test gate.
- CI found an obsolete browser assertion that hid every channel when the
flag was off. Updated it to keep AgentMail and the Channels surface
visible while preserving the GitHub chat route gates. All 11 provider
browser tests passed locally after scoping the Channels selector to the
agent sidebar. Two initial local attempts stopped at temporary Postgres
initialization. The passing run used a separate disposable database on
the existing local Postgres server; it was removed after the test.
- Updated the remaining sidebar and aggregator discovery assertions for
default AgentMail availability. Ordinary task fixtures now return no
email thread. All 128 sidebar/task-page tests and all 42 aggregator
tests passed locally.
- Latest head `b42bb4cd5cc9f2d01a99ab8026832d5a956ea85f`: full CI
passed, with 54 successful checks including Snyk and two intentional
Storybook skips. The CI run is
https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37020833647. A
fresh Greptile review scored 5/5 with no unresolved threads. Live model
evaluations and inbound/outbound email delivery were not run.

## Risks

- AgentMail no longer needs experimental opt-in. Setup still requires a
human to connect an account and assign an inbox. Inline setup creates an
inbox after a human submits a new or saved key. Company access, agent
access, inbox assignment, and completion checks remain enforced.
- AgentMail read APIs cannot prove global address availability. The
visible-list check is bounded to 100 entries and cannot see inboxes
outside the key’s scope. The UI reports this limitation, suggests
alternatives without claiming they are free, and keeps final creation
conflicts inline. Lookup outages show an error without preventing the
authoritative creation attempt.
- Native select CSS affects the whole app. Custom-icon selects and
multi-row lists are excluded. Forced-color mode keeps the browser caret.
- Saved-key discovery uses stored verified scope metadata and checks
authorized legacy credentials concurrently within a shared three-second
deadline. Provider outages mark legacy choices unavailable; users can
still enter another key. Final use rechecks authorization and provider
access.
- No database migration or transport default change. Live connection
remains the default.

DottaandPaperclip e00d10d5d5 fix(connections): repair stale AI defaults from agent settings (#14916)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and controls the credentials used for
their work.
> - Managed AI connections resolve each responsible user's provider
default.
> - Agent settings created another account but kept the old default
selected.
> - A rejected provider test left the old account marked as connected.
> - Claude ACP reported a typed login failure as a generic
terminal-access error.
> - This pull request repairs the selected account or selects the new
login explicitly.
> - Agents can save and run with the repaired credential, and failed
logins request sign-in.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- Fixes #14831.
- Refs #13867. Environment failures remain separate from
credential-health failures.

## What Changed

- Add an agent-settings action to reconnect an unavailable personal
default in place. Keep its connection, grant, default, and agent access.
- State that a new account becomes the user's provider default. Select
its returned grant before changing the agent binding. Keep the actual
sign-in method.
- Show default-update errors and allow retry without another provider
login.
- Show the agent-access choice. Connection managers start with
company-wide access for their own tasks. Other members start with access
for the current agent.
- Use the server's connection-manager permission in the shared list
response. This includes members with a custom management grant.
- Mark credentials as needing attention after an explicit login
rejection in Test or Save. This includes API-key 401 and 403 responses.
Network, quota, and server failures keep the credential health
unchanged.
- Reuse the credential-generation check so an old failure cannot
invalidate a newer reconnect.
- Route Claude's typed provider `access` failure to the existing
login-recovery flow. Replace its generic terminal-access fallback with a
sign-in message.
- Add regression tests and update the AI Connections documentation.

## Verification

- Red: the UI tests failed on the missing reconnect action, unused
returned grant, missing access choice, and lost default-update error.
The server tests failed because rejected credentials stayed connected.
The real ACP fixture returned `acpx_turn_failed` for typed login
failures.
- Green: 156 tests passed across the AI connection, hiring, agent field,
and New Agent suites. All 37 environment-route tests passed. The Claude
ACP authentication fixtures also passed.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passed.
- `pnpm build` passed.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` passed 707 files and 14,503 tests, then
exited with an agent-conversation timeout and embedded PostgreSQL
startup failures in unchanged suites. The isolated conversation and
migration tests passed on rerun. Later local test groups did not run
after this failure.
- [All CI gates
passed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37012669356)
on commit `38513dfe2`. This includes the full test matrix, browser
tests, typecheck, build, Runner checks, and canary dry run.
- Greptile reviewed commit `38513dfe2` and returned 5/5 with no open
findings.
- The regression tests use a real embedded database and a real ACP
fixture process. Live provider sign-in requires a valid account and was
not run.

## Risks

- Connecting a new account from agent settings changes the user's
provider default. The dialog states this before sign-in.
- The displayed access choice can allow all company agents to use the
account for its owner's tasks. Reconnect keeps the existing access.
Server permissions still control installs.
- Claude's typed `access` category maps to the provider's
`auth_required` signal. Tool and workspace request failures retain their
existing classification.
- No database migration or provider credential format changes are
required.

## Model Used

- OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The exact served model identifier and
context window are not exposed in this session. Capabilities used:
reasoning, repository tools, code editing, and command execution.

cad26c6bfb fix(tool-gateway): bound MCP discovery memory and concurrency (#14864)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents discover governed tools through the MCP gateway.
> - A listing repeated policy and full run-row reads for each catalog
tool.
> - Parallel listings multiplied those allocations during run startup.
> - One 900-tool baseline listing used 11,489 queries and about 1.7 GiB
of extra heap in a fixture.
> - This pull request shares reads within a listing and bounds whole
listings across the process.
> - The benefit is lower discovery memory use while execution still
checks current policy.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13115. Its on-demand target change affects the same listing loop.

**What happened?**

MCP discovery repeated roughly 13 reads per tool. Full run snapshots and
repeated connection configurations caused large allocations. Per-listing
bounds alone did not limit concurrent listings across gateways.

**Expected behavior**

Discovery reads shared inputs once per listing. The process bounds
active and queued listings. Catalog payload size and policy evaluation
still grow with the catalog. Tool execution checks current access rules.

**Steps to reproduce**

Create a company with a remote MCP connection, 900 catalog tools, large
schemas, and a large run snapshot. Send concurrent tools/list requests
using a run-bound gateway token. Run the committed benchmark for a
deterministic reproduction.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Baseline: f2e0f19630. Measured on Node
26.4.0 on macOS.

## What Changed

- Keep Michael Nguyen's per-listing policy cache, scalar policy reads,
16-decision bound, and catalog/connection split under repeatable read.
- Admit two whole listings per process and queue at most 32. Return 503
with tool_discovery_busy when full.
- Propagate disconnects to discovery. Stop scheduling new reads and
drain started reads before freeing the slot.
- Project context IDs in gateway authentication and GitHub runtime
discovery. Avoid loading task descriptions and results.
- Keep discovery audit counts and a SHA-256 digest instead of the full
name list. Retain access and activity audit records.
- Sweep expired named gateway tokens at startup and on the existing
scheduler. Delete at most 500 per pass. Add an idempotent expiry-index
migration. Resolve audit token references atomically so cleanup cannot
break admitted requests.
- Return GET 405 with Allow: POST on stateless MCP gateway and
runtime-tools endpoints. Keep runtime-tools authentication.
- Add red-green regressions, HTTP concurrency and policy-revocation
coverage, and browser approval assertions.
- Commit the benchmark harness, raw results, and resource-bound
documentation.

## Verification

- Baseline listing regressions failed with 722 queries for 50 tools and
6,422 for 500. The connection-row duplication regression also failed.
- Follow-up regressions failed before the fixes for full snapshot reads,
abandoned listings, full name-list audits, and expired tokens.
- Listing and scheduler tests: 14 pass. Existing gateway/policy suites
passed after preserving the cleanup return contract.
- Two HTTP journeys pass: initialize, GET/SSE rejection, 16 concurrent
500-tool listings, provider call, policy revocation, and denied retry.
Token cleanup during provider dispatch also completes successfully and
blocks subsequent requests.
- pnpm test:e2e tests/e2e/mcp-user-stories.spec.ts --grep
'@mcp-runnable': 8 pass. The approval journey clicks Allow once in the
browser. Review screenshots wait for loaded content.
- pnpm -r typecheck: passes. pnpm build: passes.
- The general server group completed with 14,755 passes and 18 failures.
The 17 startup mock failures were fixed; all 21 startup tests pass on
rerun. The one Discord timing failure passed on the unchanged baseline
and on rerun (74 tests). UI and CLI groups pass 7,632 tests. Shared and
skill groups pass 853 tests. The remaining database and adapter groups
pass 3,010 tests with one worker after a macOS shared-memory limit
interrupted a parallel run. All 149 serialized route files pass (2,762
tests).
- At 900 tools, one listing falls from 11,489 to 36 queries and from
about 1.7 GiB to 37 MiB of extra heap. Sixteen concurrent listings used
169–187 MiB of extra heap. Four connections used 39 queries per listing.
- Latest-head verification: 54 successful checks and two expected skips
on 5c0793090c. Fresh Greptile review: 5/5
with no unresolved threads.
- Reproduce with server/scripts/benchmark-tool-gateway-listing.ts. See
doc/mcp-discovery-performance.md and
doc/benchmarks/2026-10-01-mcp-discovery.json.

## Risks

- The process-wide FIFO queue can increase discovery latency. Excess
callers must retry 503 responses.
- Cancellation applies to discovery. Started database reads finish
before their slot is released.
- Audit consumers must use visibleToolCount and visibleToolsHash instead
of visibleTools.
- The expiry index can briefly lock the token table during migration.
Sweeps preserve unexpired and non-expiring tokens.
- Measurements use isolated fixtures and deterministic providers. They
do not establish a production heap limit or affected installation count.
Rate-limit reads remain uncached.

## Model Used

- Original listing optimization: Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5
(claude-opus-5-5), Claude Code, extended thinking and tool use, as
recorded by the original author.
- Follow-up fixes and verification: OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with shell
execution, file edits, database fixtures, and browser tests. The exact
serving model ID and context window are not exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 018993140f feat: let agents name prompt-only tasks (#14761)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Users create tasks with a title and a description.
> - A required title adds work when the prompt already explains the
request.
> - An agent can name the task once it reads that request.
> - This pull request accepts prompt-only tasks and starts them with a
short prompt slice.
> - A scoped title tool lets the assigned agent replace that slice early
without changing execution state.
> - A live browser eval checks the real agent call, saved title, audit
entry, and preservation of user titles.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: task creation, shared contracts, database, server, runner
tools, and board UI.

**Problem or motivation**

Users must currently write a title before they can submit a detailed
task prompt. The agent has enough context to write a useful title
itself.

**Proposed solution**

Make the title optional when a description is present. Save the first
120 characters of the normalized prompt as a provisional title. Ask the
assigned agent to call `set_task_title` early. Use an atomic
provisional-title guard to preserve titles supplied or edited by users.
Keep explicit titles supported.

Related: #14543 and #14556 concern empty-title submission. This change
intentionally enables that submission when a prompt is present, instead
of requiring a title.

## What Changed

- Add the `titleNeedsGeneration` field with an idempotent migration.
Keep existing titles unchanged.
- Add `PUT /api/issues/:id/title` and the native and legacy
`set_task_title` tool. Enforce company access, active-run ownership,
shared, bounded retry receipts across native/HTTP calls, and
transactional audit logging. Refresh external-object links after commit,
with the same feature gate and plugin detectors as ordinary title edits.
- Add early naming guidance in Standard, Ask, and Plan task context.
Preserve the description, status, and assignment.
- Allow prompt-only root and child task creation, plus draft restoration
in the New Task dialog. Keep user titles supported.
- Add an opt-in Product E2E suite for prompt-only Standard and Ask
tasks, plus an explicit-title control. It checks actual provider calls
within the first five tools, persisted state, audit attribution, and the
reloaded UI.
- Preserve a closed vocabulary of API key maintenance phrases in
declared prose while rejecting opaque credential suffixes. Add one
bounded naming retry after wording is rejected, without treating the
rejected call as a saved title.
- Repair the native cleanup receipt check exposed during full
verification: accept matching input digests, retain legacy input checks,
and reject conflicting receipts.

## Verification

- Live Product E2E on `f43478473800e3a46b85c5ee79677efdb15108e7`: **3/3
passed** with native Codex `gpt-5.4-mini`, first attempts only,
automatic retries disabled. Standard and Ask each saved “Rotate expired
API key” on their first tool call, with matching persisted state and a
single same-run audit entry. The explicit-title control retained its
user title with zero title writes. All three verified the reloaded
browser UI.
- Campaign: `local-2026-09-30T21-30-11-021Z`. Earlier failed campaigns
are retained separately; they exposed credential-prose handling and
prompted the naming recovery fix. No failed result was regraded or
deleted.
- Reproduce with `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --id
task-titles.runner-codex-mini.local.prompt-title-standard --id
task-titles.runner-codex-mini.local.prompt-title-ask --id
task-titles.runner-codex-mini.local.preserve-explicit-title
--max-automatic-retries 0` and an authorized provider key.
- Full `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` passed on the latest commit.
The runner build used the configured external eval source tree.
- Product E2E unit suite: **61 files, 818 tests passed**; E2E typecheck
and UI token gates passed.
- Title API/native regressions cover prompt-only and explicit child
creation, user edits, ownership/company isolation, external reference
refresh, cross-surface retry replay, and the 64-key limit without
receipt eviction. All passed. Prompt-context coverage: **44 tests
passed**.
- Rust credential regressions: **35 tests passed**, including benign
maintenance qualifiers and opaque credential rejection in every declared
prose field. Catalog/report reconciliation: **28 tests passed**. Native
recovery: **560 tests passed**.
- Broad local `pnpm test:run`: **14,555 tests passed** in the general
server group; two suites failed to initialize embedded PostgreSQL and
the existing 40,000-file Git streaming stress test exceeded its
300-second macOS timeout. All three suites then passed in isolation (**5
tests passed**) without code or timeout changes. The original full local
command exited nonzero and is not being represented as a clean full run.
- Latest-head GitHub checks are green: **53 passed, 4 skipped, zero
failed or pending**, including all test shards and the canary packaging
dry run. Greptile reviewed the same commit at **5/5**, with zero
unresolved review threads.

## Risks

- The additive database field must reach the server and UI together. The
migration uses `IF NOT EXISTS` and defaults existing tasks to a final
title.
- Title generation depends on the assigned agent running. Tasks without
a run keep their provisional title.
- Live qualification covers the native Codex path in Standard and Ask
modes. API/legacy and Plan behavior have deterministic coverage.
- The credential-prose exception validates the entire suffix against a
closed maintenance vocabulary. Unknown suffixes, assignments, quoted
values, credential prefixes, and diagnostics retain strict checks.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, tool use, and code
execution. The exact deployment ID and context window are not exposed in
this session. The live eval uses the native Codex `gpt-5.4-mini`
profile.

DottaandPaperclip d432dc7fa3 Add GitHub-synced skill sources (#14713)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Company skills supply instructions and files to those agents.
> - GitHub imports already exist, but users cannot manage repositories
as skill sources.
> - Repository refresh also needs caller-authorized access and complete
local packages.
> - This pull request adds Sources inside Skills and reuses GitHub
connections from Apps.
> - Installed snapshots let agents use skills without fetching GitHub
during a run.
> - Manual refresh preserves skill identity and leaves failed imports on
their last good version.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Cross-cutting: skills UI, server, database, shared contracts, and
runtime materialization.

**Problem or motivation**

Users keep skills in GitHub repositories. They need a clear way to
select, import, and refresh those skills. Existing imports do not expose
repository management or consistently preserve supporting files.

**Proposed solution**

Add company-scoped skill sources. Browse repositories from all
accessible GitHub connections, or paste a public repository or branch
URL. Select whole skill packages, inspect included files and reference
warnings, and install complete, immutable snapshots. Refresh each source
manually.

**Alternatives considered**

Project repository settings hide the workflow from Skills. A second
GitHub connector would duplicate credentials and grants. Upstream
editing and PR creation are separate work.

**Roadmap alignment**

This implements the Skills Manager direction in ROADMAP.md. The
maintainer requested this scope and reviewed the component and full-app
journey stories before implementation.

Related reports: Refs #10285, Refs #10949, Refs #13464. Related work:
#14356, #13656, #9268.

## What Changed

- Add source and entry records, an idempotent migration, company-scoped
APIs, and legacy GitHub import adoption.
- Reuse current caller grants and credential refresh. Combine and
deduplicate repository inventories across accessible connections. Pasted
public URLs also prefer the active user’s authorized connections. Tokens
stay in the Git child environment, never argv or disk.
- Fetch a shallow Git snapshot at one immutable commit. Scan the full
local tree, including hidden and nested folders. Read Git objects
without checkout or archive transformations and enforce nested package
boundaries.
- Bound Git downloads to 128 MiB and three minutes. Cancel active
process groups and remove incomplete downloads. Preserve cancellation
and deadlines while progress drains; close stalled HTTP progress streams
after 30 seconds. Reuse caller-scoped temporary snapshots for
preview/import after reauthorization.
- Index repository package boundaries once and cap expanded work at
1,000 packages, 10,000 files, and 100 MiB, including repeated copies of
shared blobs. Bound path depth and the shared path index. Discovery
keeps audited manifests without retaining all package bodies.
- Resolve moving branches before fetching so unchanged discovery reuses
caller-scoped snapshots. Limit active scans, scan frequency, and new
downloads per caller and company; quotas apply before metadata reads and
across connections, and cached scans do not consume the download quota.
- Store complete versions with script content, binary bytes, and
executable modes. Preserve these through copies, runtime caches, and
runner packaging.
- Stage downloads before publication. Use source leases, revision
checks, and transactional activity records. Keep installed versions
after failures, upstream deletion, deselection, and disconnect.
- Add the approved import flow, Sources page, selection tree,
provenance, read-only Studio behavior, and saved return from GitHub
setup.
- Add package manifests, commit-pinned file previews, and separate
runtime requirements and reference warnings. Supporting files are
included together; nested skills remain independently selectable.
Preview requests reauthorize the caller and re-audit package content.
- Show installed skills as compact links beneath each source. Repository
titles open GitHub. Keep Refresh, Select skills, and Disconnect source
in a three-dot menu. Source rows omit the branch, imported count, and
refresh timestamp; action alignment and repository titles work at narrow
widths.
- Stream discovery metadata over an opt-in NDJSON response. Show
measured Git download progress and real package/file counts, animate
newly checked skills, support cancellation, and require a complete scan
before selection. Keep the existing JSON API.
- Retain component stories and add a separate full-app journey story
group. Include fixed progress states and interactive scan,
large-repository, interruption, and saving stories.
- Update Skills documentation and product contracts. Suppress private
GitHub skill references in telemetry. Privacy review requested for the
telemetry changes.

## Verification

- Local repository typecheck, full build, token gates, and Storybook
build passed during this work. Focused transport, authorization,
scanner, persistence, route, and UI tests pass. The final UI refinement
passes all eight focused UI tests, UI typecheck/build, and token gates.
The scanner resource and repeated-discovery fixes pass 132 focused
scanner, transport, authorization, source-service, route, and rate-limit
tests, plus server typecheck/build. Full-suite verification comes from
CI; the older full local Vitest run was stopped after unrelated chat
failures and a font-test failure, all of which passed in fresh focused
runs. At commit `1098d5996`, all 54 active checks pass; two optional
Storybook jobs are skipped. CI covers repository typecheck, build, the
full test suites, browser shards, and the canary dry run. Greptile is
5/5 with no open findings; the security scan also passes.
- Adversarial scanner tests verify repeated-blob byte accounting with
and without declared sizes, package/file/path caps, one-time repository
indexing, metadata-only discovery audits, and nested package boundaries.
Additional tests cover branch movement, snapshot reuse, caller/company
quotas, isolation across connections, active-lease cleanup, quota
recovery, and rejection before any metadata API call.
- Real Git tests verify hidden paths, exact binary bytes, executable
modes, export-ignore preservation, symlink/submodule reporting, pinned
commits, caller-scoped cache reuse, cancellation, cleanup, and
credential isolation. Regression tests hold both download slots with
permanently blocked progress callbacks, verify timeout/cancellation
cleanup and retry, and exercise HTTP backpressure cancellation. Access
tests cover automatic public-URL connection selection and revoked
grants. Database tests verify company and grant audiences.
- Live isolated browser test: the public `anthropics/skills` scan now
completes and discovers all 20 skills without connecting an account.
Imported canvas-design with all 83 files, opened it from Sources, and
verified the installed binary-font preview/download control. Package
previews also expose the complete file inventory before import.
Cancelled an active Git download and retried successfully to all 20
discovered skills; the browser displayed measured download progress. The
current audits reject four other packages; eligible selections remain
importable.
- Browser checks verify the simplified source rows at desktop and narrow
widths, keyboard navigation into the actions menu, Refresh from the
menu, selection, and fixture disconnect with installed skills retained.
Storybook includes a menu-open checkpoint and a 320px layout.
- Storybook includes receiving/preparing download checkpoints and a
timed full-app import journey, plus cancellation, retry,
large-repository, and saving states. Streaming tests cover split UTF-8
frames, incomplete streams, late responses, cross-company requests, HTTP
errors, and JSON compatibility.
- Earlier live acceptance on this PR imported `stitch-skill` with
`DESIGN.md`, assigned it to an agent, disconnected its source, and ran a
successful Studio test that read both installed files. An editable copy
changed independently. Both Skills variants, mobile selection, and
return from GitHub setup were exercised.
- Private access, revoked credentials, OAuth success return,
binary/script preservation, concurrent refresh, transaction rollback,
version pins, and legacy adoption have automated coverage. A real
private-repository OAuth grant was not created during this test.

## Risks

- The migration groups recognizable legacy imports without provider
calls. Their first successful refresh completes the local package
snapshot.
- Reference checks are advisory. They cover Markdown links and explicit
relative resource paths, not arbitrary runtime dependency graphs.
Preview text is capped at 64 KiB; imported bytes remain complete.
- Git must be installed on the server. Shallow fetches still download
the branch snapshot, including files outside selected packages.
Downloads have size/time/concurrency limits. Temporary caches are
bounded and caller-scoped. GitHub API quota still applies to repository
metadata and the connection picker; content no longer uses per-file API
requests. Failed scans retain installed content.
- Sources depend on the current caller's GitHub access. A saved
connection does not grant access to another person's token.
- GitHub script support and immediate manual refresh are explicit
maintainer-approved requirements. The operator trusts the selected
repository and accepts upstream script and executable-mode changes on
refresh. Static audits are not a sandbox or a guarantee of safe code;
agents may later invoke installed helpers under their runtime
permissions. Import and refresh do not execute scripts, hooks, package
installation, or builds. Raw URL and skills.sh imports keep their prior
script restrictions.
- Source originals remain read-only. Refresh affects subsequent unpinned
runs; explicit pins and active runs retain their versions.
- The telemetry change removes source-managed GitHub identifiers from
skill-reference events. It introduces no event or field. Please review
the privacy boundary.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 3c561642b4 fix(chat): resolve approvals and preserve unanswered questions (#14613)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents ask for decisions and optional details through cards in chat.
> - A clear approval in a message can leave the matching card pending.
> - An unanswered question can also block an unrelated later reply.
> - Decisions need a saved source message, while optional questions need
to remain answerable in history.
> - This pull request records conversational decisions and lets users
move on from questions and answer them later.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Native Claude and Codex could act on approval in chat while the original
approval card stayed pending. Pending question forms stayed above the
composer, were absent from history, and could suppress later chat
replies. A late native question answer could wait for a finished run to
reconnect.

**Expected behavior**

The active agent records a clear approval or refusal against the exact
card and user message. Ambiguous replies do not grant consent. Users can
send another message without answering a question. The question remains
pending in history and can be reopened and answered later. The saved
answer reaches the agent.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Ask an agent to propose work with a confirmation card, then approve
it in chat.
2. Check that the original card records that approval before work
starts.
3. Ask an interactive question, send an unrelated message, and reload.
4. Open the unanswered question from history and submit an answer.

Related work: #14408 added completion delivery. #14607 tests completion
reporting turns. Neither records conversational answers on approval
cards.

## What Changed

- Add a confirmation endpoint backed by a user comment, with schema
validation, OpenAPI discovery, and native Plan-mode access. Ask mode
remains read-only.
- Check company, active run, actor, current session, message provenance,
revision, and resolver policy. Save the decision and audit in one
transaction. Retries do not repeat effects. Emit resolution telemetry
after commit.
- Give fresh and resumed chat turns the actual pending confirmation
identities. Teach agents to save clear conversational decisions before
acting and to clarify ambiguity.
- Keep unanswered Agent Chat questions as compact history entries. A
newer user message closes the old form. Question cards never contribute
to composer pending counts or navigation, including after dismissing a
fresh form. The history card is the sole reminder; clicking it restores
that exact form and draft.
- Preserve Agent Chat questions when later messages or questions arrive.
Historical ordinary inputs no longer gate later chat replies.
Current-run requests, task execution, and governed approvals keep their
gates. Remove the special acknowledgement-publication proof helpers that
this rule replaces.
- Route answers to finished native runs through durable fresh-wake
delivery, with existing idempotency and source-question context. Settle
late replies against contiguous completed conversation turns and freeze
their history replay; failed, unhandled, and newly arriving messages
remain actionable.
- Add real-component Storybook scenarios, database and UI regressions,
and a three-turn native Claude/Codex E2E case. Capture distinct,
UI-ready screenshots and report the individual assertions.

## Verification

- Focused decision/publication/UI regressions after merging master: 288
passed; subsequent UI draft, failed-send, and conversation checks: 199
passed.
- Native question and durable delivery regressions: 106 passed,
including all four terminal run states and exactly-once late delivery.
Seven targeted regressions fail against the original implementation and
pass with the fix.
- Latest conversation/decision/native-delivery regressions after the
master merge: 121 passed. Covers completed progress, missing or failed
intervening turns, new messages during a late reply, stale sessions, and
frozen retry/replay boundaries. Four new assertions fail before the
ordering fix.
- E2E support suite after the master merge: 792 passed. Negative
controls reject expired cards, wrong questions/answers, stale or missing
replies, unrelated clarification forms, and unexpected tasks.
- The embedded-browser walkthrough caught one additional defect:
dismissing a fresh question still showed a composer badge. Both Cancel
and close-button regressions failed before the fix. The fix at
`65f2ade12` passes 170 chat-thread tests and 792 E2E support tests.
After merging master, 232 chat-thread/confirmation tests, server/UI
typechecks, and token gates pass. The preview and two-provider live E2E
pass at `e5512a206`; Greptile is 5/5 with zero unresolved threads at
that commit. All 55 checks are now successful at `e5512a206` (four
conditional checks skipped), including the aggregate verification gate
and clean-install canary test. The first attempt was interrupted by
simultaneous CI worker shutdowns; one failed-job rerun passed without
code changes.
- [Published
Storybook](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/storybook/branches/codex~2Fchat-approval-resolution/?path=/story/chat-comments-agent-chat-unanswered-questions--moved-on):
nine real-component scenarios. Manually exercised move on, reopen,
preserve draft, answer later, answer one of multiple questions, and a
custom mobile answer in the embedded browser. Retested fresh Cancel and
close-button dismissal in the updated build, then reopened and submitted
the preserved Green selection and inspected its answered receipt. Static
preview has no live model/backend; its callbacks are fixture responses.
- [First live
campaign](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36714504406-1/)
reproduced the late-answer completion-state defect on both providers
despite correct saved answers and acknowledgements. It also exposed a
valid imperative clarification rejected by the old oracle. Both issues
are fixed with regression controls; this failing run is retained as
evidence.
- [Four-cell
qualification](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36717804064-1/)
passed 4/4 at `2bf8a1009`: unanswered-question return and ambiguous
confirmation, each on native Claude and Codex. Inspected saved state,
source-message decisions, visible cards, and agent replies. Both
late-answer chats settled to waiting; no unrequested tasks were created.
[Final branch
rerun](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36719666238-1/)
passed 2/2 at `142630720`: the same unanswered-question journey after
merging master, plus an additional screenshot and browser assertion for
the actual late-answer acknowledgement.
- [Composer-reminder
E2E](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36727006818-1/)
passed 2/2 at `5b62c52d9`: native Claude and Codex, three turns each,
with explicit no-badge assertions before and after reload. Inspected
saved pending/answered state, both screenshots with a clear composer,
and actual Blue acknowledgements; all five behavioral matchers passed
per provider and neither created tasks. Cost coverage is partial; this
is bounded workflow qualification.
- [Fresh-dismissal
E2E](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36742773318-1/)
passed 2/2 at `e5512a206`: native Claude and Codex, including fresh
Cancel, clear composer, reopen, unrelated message, reload, late Blue
answer, and actual agent acknowledgement. All five behavioral matchers
pass per provider. Inspected the fresh-dismissal screenshots and saved
pending/answered identity; neither created tasks. Cost coverage is
partial (4/6 runs).
- Prior evidence remains available in [the earlier
campaign](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-36642252725-1/).
Its early loading screenshot and overwritten final capture prompted the
UI-ready, distinct screenshot fixes.

## Risks

- The model interprets intent. The server verifies permission and
provenance; it does not infer consent from text. Ambiguous and unrelated
replies are not approvals.
- Historical questions can accumulate. They remain visible, pending, and
answerable; no automatic answer or expiry is invented.
- The change to completion gates is scoped to Agent Chat and ordinary
historical inputs. Current-turn and governed approvals retain their
existing controls.
- Live qualification is limited to the selected stories. Broader native
onboarding finalization remains separate work.
- No database migration. Telemetry adds no fields or values; the
contract and README document the commit boundary. Privacy review was
requested on the PR.

## Model Used

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

DottaandPaperclip 1b48e73e0b feat(ui): add secondary navigation for agent chat (#14706)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent Chat already provides a persistent conversation with each
agent.
> - Its shortcuts share the primary navigation and do not give chats a
dedicated place.
> - People need to find agents, start a chat, and switch conversations
without moving the page layout.
> - This pull request adds a secondary chat sidebar and a landing page
around the existing chat surface.
> - The same conversation, composer, history, and context panel remain
in use.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13283 and #13420. This extends the existing experimental Agent
Chat navigation after review of the component and page stories. It
supports the CEO Chat roadmap item through the existing task-backed
conversation model.

**Subsystem affected**

The board UI and the company-scoped conversation list API.

**Current behavior**

Chat shortcuts sit inside the primary navigation. There is no dedicated
landing page with a searchable conversation list. A separate landing
header also moves the sidebar when an agent is selected.

**Proposed behavior**

Show a Chat entry in primary navigation. Keep a searchable agent sidebar
beside the chat content. The plus button starts or reopens the current
user's single conversation with that agent. Keep the header and sidebar
in the same positions before and after selection.

**Reason and benefit**

People can find agents and return to persistent conversations without
leaving the chat area or creating duplicate chats.

**Breaking changes**

The experimental chat navigation changes. Explicitly adding a chat now
resolves its conversation immediately. Direct visits to unused agent
chat URLs remain read-only. The existing per-agent routes and message
contracts remain compatible. No database migration is required.

## What Changed

- Add an account- and company-scoped conversation list endpoint with the
existing access checks, feature gate, and OpenAPI entry.
- Add the live secondary sidebar, landing page, avatars, search, loading
states, errors, and retry controls.
- Make the agent picker wait for chat creation and display failures.
Existing agents reopen the same conversation. A dismissed selection
cannot close a reopened picker or navigate over a newer choice.
- Preserve recent-activity ordering and terminated agents’ chat history.
Scope live list refreshes to the current user’s conversation events. A
failed historical-agent lookup leaves healthy chats usable and offers a
focused retry.
- Keep the sidebar and header stable across chat routes. Keep mobile
selection in the navigation drawer.
- Use the production components in Storybook. Prepare the theme and
mobile viewport before mounting the page to avoid the startup flash.
- Update product documentation, the design guide, and navigation tests.
Replace old browser expectations for stars and recent shortcuts with
persistent conversation and layout coverage.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `pnpm check:token-gates` pass
after rebasing onto master.
- Focused UI tests pass, including 105 sidebar, picker, and live-update
checks after review fixes. The 33 conversation service and route tests
and 10 OpenAPI checks pass, including ownership, feature gating, and
concurrent creation.
- The full local test run passed 14,163 server tests before three
environment or timeout failures. The embedded Postgres startup,
connector socket, and native runner failures all passed direct reruns.
- Browser test-drive verification covers a real provider reply, add and
reopen, persisted history after reload, no-match search recovery, mobile
drawer dismissal, and top-aligned context panels.
- Browser measurements confirm that the sidebar has the same position
and dimensions on the landing page and an agent conversation.
- Storybook builds and its add-and-reopen interaction passes.
- The revised browser regression passes locally against a freshly built
throwaway instance. It covers stable sidebar geometry, add/reopen
uniqueness, drafts, search, history, and terminated-agent history after
reload. The full CI browser suite also passes.
- Latest commit `b323577d9523180104df4000eaceedea2772608c`: all 54
completed checks pass, including the complete server/workspace/browser
suites, aggregate verification, build/typecheck, security scans, and
canary packaging. The two Storybook jobs are skipped by their workflow
conditions. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/36714052050).
- Greptile reviewed this same commit at 5/5 with no remaining actionable
findings; all review threads are resolved.
- Reviewer path: enable Agent Chat, click Chat, use plus to choose an
agent, send a message, switch away, and reopen that agent. One
conversation must remain, with its history intact.

## Risks

- The new sidebar lists persistent conversations instead of starred and
recent shortcuts.
- Chat creation is asynchronous. Errors stay visible in the picker, and
delayed responses cannot navigate into a previous company or account.
- The shell adjustment is limited to chat routes and preserves the
existing conversation implementation.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, code execution, and browser
tools. The session does not expose the exact API model ID or
context-window size.

DottaandPaperclip d72389bee2 feat: add Browser Use Cloud connector and live task browsers (#14627)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The Apps gateway gives agents governed access to external tools.
> - Browser Use Cloud can run browser work, but a tool result alone does
not let a person watch or take over.
> - A task needs a durable browser session, a visible viewer, and
recorded costs.
> - This pull request adds a Browser Use Cloud v4 connection and
interactive browser tabs on tasks.
> - People can follow the work, interact with the page, and retain the
browser after the agent finishes.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Agents need governed access to Browser Use Cloud. People need to see and
interact with the same browser from the task. A browser must remain
available after a run finishes and appear at the correct point in the
task feed.

**Proposed solution**

Add a native REST connection for the v4 API. Bind each session to its
company, task, agent, and credential grant. Open its interactive viewer
in the task side panel. Record provider costs as financial events. Use
`browser-use-cloud` as the app and connector key. Keep its skill with
the connector and deliver it only with authorized connection tools.

**Alternatives considered**

A v3 MCP connection would expose tools without the v4 lifecycle
integration. An external viewer link would leave the task. A fixed
viewer size would prevent pages from responding to changes in the task
pane.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the governed Apps gateway and Connected Apps roadmap. It
uses the existing task, grant, secret, approval, and financial records.
The work was requested by the maintainer. A search found no duplicate
Browser Use connector PR or issue.

## What Changed

- Add the Browser Use Cloud app, brand asset, API-key connection, and
profile settings under the `browser-use-cloud` key.
- Bundle the `browser-use-cloud` skill with the connector. Keep it out
of global `skills/` discovery. Deliver it only with authorized task/run
connection tools. Remove retired connector skill keys from runtime
overlays and preserve unrelated browser skills.
- Expose seven v4 tools through the governed gateway and deliver them to
native and CLI agents.
- Persist sessions, browsers, runs, event and recovery cursors, shutdown
leases, and cumulative cost accounting. Recover uncertain paid starts
without replaying them.
- Enforce task ownership, credential grants, approvals, revoked access,
and budget limits.
- Add interactive task browser tabs and compact chronological feed
entries. Retain the viewer across tab switches and keep visible idle
browsers open.
- Add debounced automatic viewport fitting, standard size presets, and a
viewer ownership lease.
- Add lifecycle, authorization, accounting, viewport, UI, and Storybook
coverage.
- Add an idempotent database migration after the current master
migration. Preserve deployed migration hashes. Migrate pre-release Cloud
connection and financial keys without replacing grants, credentials, or
browser history.
- Document provider behavior, live acceptance results, and the lack of
documented passkey forwarding.

## Verification

- Full workspace typecheck and production build pass on the updated
branch.
- Token gates, brand asset validation, module boundaries, and migration
ordering pass.
- Cloud tests verify global skill exclusion, authorized task/run
delivery, unassigned agents, disabled connections, revocation, adapter
isolation, and secret exclusion. The existing AgentMail connector
assignment test also passes.
- Migration replay runs twice against existing browser work and
financial records. It preserves the records and avoids duplicate costs.
- The focused provider, app catalog, OpenAPI, connection gateway, and
migration regression suites pass. Recovery coverage includes lost
replies, process crashes, provider rejection, and browser arrival
acknowledgement.
- All 54 checks pass on `2974b5f03641ad0cea3c941d8c02579316fa8c92`,
including the full test matrix, browser E2E shards, build, typecheck,
security, and release canary. Two optional Storybook jobs are skipped.
- Greptile is 5/5 on the same commit, with zero unresolved review
threads. The corrected review uses the actual master-to-head diff.
- The local `pnpm test:run` started and was stopped after the full CI
matrix passed. It did not complete locally; the full-suite result above
comes from CI.
- Earlier live acceptance used an isolated company with a capped
provider credential. The agent opened paperclip.ing, the embedded viewer
accepted navigation, and the same browser stayed available after
completion and tab switches.
- The local Storybook build passes. Stories cover the panel, footer,
feed entries, settings, lifecycle failures, and viewport modes with an
offline viewer fixture.

## Risks

- Browser Use charges for hosted work. Provider caps and local budget
checks reduce exposure; reported costs can arrive after work completes.
- Viewer and CDP URLs grant access to the browser. The server validates
and restricts them. They are excluded from agent results and durable
event data.
- Runtime resizing of v4 agent browsers uses a provider option confirmed
by live testing but absent from its published agent schema. Resizing
during a click may invalidate coordinates. Fixed presets remain
available.
- Viewport ownership is process-local and resets on restart. The
lifecycle and accounting records remain in the database.
- The original intermittent embedded-viewer stall has not been fully
diagnosed. A bounded reconnect and active-session recovery cover the
observed failure paths.
- Live tests did not cover every revocation, approval, rate-limit, or
restart case. Deterministic integration tests cover those paths. Passkey
forwarding is not claimed.
- Unknown create outcomes keep the credential available for cleanup.
Run-list absence cannot prove a paid POST was rejected, so recovery
stays pending until it can identify provider work.

DottaandPaperclip 2f6fa3b6dc fix: recover provider authentication inside tasks (#14629)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents need a working model provider connection to run a task.
> - A provider can reject a stored credential after the task starts.
> - The failed run must ask the responsible user to repair that
connection.
> - This pull request adds that request directly to the task and reuses
Connections sign-in.
> - The user can choose an API key or subscription, then continue the
task with a fresh session.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A run that ended with `acpx_auth_required` or another known provider
authentication error did not immediately offer an inline way to connect
the provider. A repair form could also lock the user to the failed
account's sign-in method.

**Expected behavior**

Show a provider connection card in the task as soon as the
authentication failure is saved. Allow the responsible user to connect
or repair the provider with any supported sign-in method. Keep the
connection name automatic and resume the task after successful setup.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a task with a supported provider and an expired or invalid
credential.
2. Let the run fail with a provider authentication error.
3. Open the task and attempt to repair the connection.

Related work: Refs #13724 and #13726. This change adds the inline task
repair flow and method choice.

## What Changed

- Classify provider authentication failures and create one connection
request for the current task. A persisted blocked classification
suppresses automatic retries only after the repair card is created;
unsupported providers retain their existing recovery path.
- Mark only the attributed, unchanged credential as needing sign-in.
Preserve credentials that were refreshed after the failed run started.
- Reuse the provider sign-in controls inside the task. Allow API key and
subscription choices for Claude, Codex, and Grok. Keep names hidden and
generate a default from the user, provider, and method.
- Keep the existing account when reconnecting with the same method.
Create and select another account when the method changes. Validate
updates to explicit agent bindings through the normal agent save path.
- Require explicit adoption for legacy agent authentication. Validate in
the agent environment, then commit the binding, connection install,
audit, and card completion in one transaction. Keep failed setup and
account selection visible and retryable.
- Add regression tests and update the specification and Connections
documentation.

## Verification

- Fresh local verification: 199 tests passed across the inline form,
provider method selector, default naming, authentication and recovery
classifiers, run liveness, OpenAPI routes, database adoption/rollback,
and Cursor execution suites. The adoption database suite also passed
against disposable Docker PostgreSQL.
- Full repository `pnpm build` and `pnpm -r typecheck` passed on the
latest commit. Token gates are clean.
- Embedded browser: opened real task cards from seeded authentication
failures; switched Claude from API key to subscription and back;
switched Codex from subscription to API key; confirmed the name field
stays hidden. Provider sign-in was not completed with real credentials.
- The broad local `pnpm test:run` started before review fixes and was
interrupted after the working tree changed; it is not counted as a
passing full run. Fresh focused tests passed. CI supplies the full test
and browser suite results for the current commit.
- CI is green on commit `4b97a4e447045ff3d7516525a187a5d1d21e0d4c`: 54
checks passed and two Storybook checks were skipped by their path rules.
The workspace preview job passed on one rerun after a local-server
startup timeout; its rerun passed 835 tests.
- Greptile is 5/5 on the same commit with no actionable findings and no
unresolved review threads.

## Risks

- Incorrect authentication classification could prompt for a connection
unnecessarily. Tests exclude tool authorization, quota, and unrelated
runtime failures.
- A method change selects the new personal provider default, which also
applies to other agents that use that user's default. Explicit account
bindings use the existing permission and runtime validation path.
- Credential invalidation must not race with refresh or reconnect. The
code compares the saved credential generation and grant update time
under locks.
- No database migration or new credential storage format is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex. The exact model ID and context window size
were not exposed in this session. Capabilities used: reasoning,
repository editing, shell commands, database tests, and embedded-browser
interaction.

Devin Foley f38b5693f6 fix: always enable keyboard shortcuts (#14643)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The web UI has keyboard shortcuts for the inbox, task lists, cases,
and task detail, plus global shortcuts such as `c`, `/`, `?`, `[`, and
`]`
> - Shortcut enablement was an instance-wide General setting until
#14141 moved it to a per-user preference that defaults to off
> - The move did not carry the old instance value over, so every
existing user lost shortcuts on upgrade and had to find a new toggle
under Profile settings
> - A toggle that only turns off a standard, input-safe feature costs a
setting, a database column, two API routes, and a React context for
little benefit
> - This pull request removes both the instance setting and the personal
preference and enables keyboard shortcuts for every signed-in user
> - The benefit is one less thing to configure, no silent loss of
shortcuts on upgrade, and less code to maintain

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14141 (the change that introduced the personal preference).

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Keyboard shortcuts in the web UI stay off unless each user turns them on
in Profile settings.

**Subsystem affected**

Web UI shortcuts, Profile settings, instance general settings, the
`/api/auth/preferences` routes, and the `user` table.

**Current behavior**

Shortcuts default to off per user. #14141 moved the toggle from Instance
settings → General to Profile settings and did not carry the old
instance value over. Users who had shortcuts on lost them after the
upgrade and had to find the new toggle.

**Proposed behavior**

Keyboard shortcuts are always enabled for every signed-in user. There is
no instance setting and no personal preference. Shortcuts already ignore
key presses inside text inputs and modal dialogs, so an opt-out is not
needed.

**Reason and benefit**

Fewer settings, no silent loss of shortcuts on upgrade, and removal of a
database column, two API routes, a query hook, and a React context that
existed only to gate this feature.

**Breaking changes**

`GET` and `PATCH /api/auth/preferences` are removed. `PATCH
/api/instance/settings/general` no longer accepts `keyboardShortcuts`;
that schema is strict, so the key now returns 400.
`instance.general.keyboardShortcuts` is no longer a valid
`PAPERCLIP_HIDDEN_SETTINGS` key; the parser ignores unknown keys with a
warning.

## What Changed

- Removed the Keyboard shortcuts section from Profile settings, the
`useUserPreferences` hook, `queryKeys.auth.preferences`, and
`authApi.getPreferences` / `authApi.updatePreferences`.
- Removed `GeneralSettingsContext`. The inbox, legacy inbox, task list,
legacy task list, cases, and task detail pages no longer gate their key
handlers.
- Removed the `enabled` option from `useKeyboardShortcuts`. The app
shell always registers the global shortcuts.
- Removed `GET` and `PATCH /api/auth/preferences`, their OpenAPI
entries, and the `currentUserPreferencesSchema` /
`updateCurrentUserPreferencesSchema` validators.
- Removed `keyboardShortcuts` from `InstanceGeneralSettings`, the
general settings zod schema, the settings service defaults, and
`HIDEABLE_GENERAL_SECTIONS`.
- Added migration `0289_drop_user_keyboard_shortcuts`, which drops
`user.keyboard_shortcuts`.
- Updated `AGENTS.md`, `doc/SPEC.md`, `doc/SPEC-implementation.md`, and
`docs/deploy/environment-variables.md`.
- Parsed the stored general settings row with
`instanceGeneralSettingsSchema.strip()` in the feedback vote path, so a
retired key left in the row cannot reset the sharing preference to
`prompt` and overwrite the stored choice.
- Kept every bare global shortcut (`c`, `?`, `[`, `]`, `/`) out of open
modal dialogs in `useKeyboardShortcuts`; only `/` had that guard before.
- Updated the affected tests and added a Profile settings test that
asserts the toggle is gone, a hook test for the modal dialog guard, and
a feedback service regression test for the retired-key case.

## Verification

- Typecheck passes for `@paperclipai/shared`, `@paperclipai/db`
(including the migration numbering and safety checks),
`@paperclipai/server`, and `ui`.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/auth-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/sentry.test.ts` → 119 passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/Layout.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/ProfileSettings.test.tsx ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx ui/src/pages/Cases.test.tsx
ui/src/hooks/useKeyboardShortcuts.test.tsx ui/src/pages/Agents.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/InstanceGeneralSettings.test.tsx` → 286 passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/settings-visibility.test.ts`
→ 16 passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/hooks/useKeyboardShortcuts.test.tsx` → 7
passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/feedback-service.test.ts`
(embedded Postgres) → the new retired-key test passes with the fix and
fails without it.
- Manual: sign in with no settings changed, open the inbox, press `j`
and `k` to move the selection, press `?` to open the cheatsheet. Open
Settings → Profile and confirm there is no Keyboard shortcuts section.

## Risks

- The migration drops a column. It uses `DROP COLUMN IF EXISTS`, and the
column has no readers after this change. If you roll back to a build
from before this PR after the migration has run, re-add the column
first: `ALTER TABLE "user" ADD COLUMN "keyboard_shortcuts" boolean
DEFAULT false NOT NULL;`. The older build's ORM selects that column when
it loads users.
- Any external client that still sends `keyboardShortcuts` to `PATCH
/api/instance/settings/general` receives a 400. No in-repo client does.
- Stored `instance_settings.general.keyboardShortcuts` values are
stripped on read and ignored.
- Users who never turned the toggle on now get shortcuts. The handlers
skip text inputs, contenteditable regions, and modal dialogs, so typing
is unaffected.

## Model Used

Claude Fable 5.1 (`claude-fable-5-1`) in Claude Code, with extended
thinking and tool use.

DottaandFry 3ca196b0a6 feat(agents): persist agent files across tasks without revision history (#14420)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - An agent needs personal files across tasks and sessions.
> - AGENTS.md is one file in that directory. Supporting files need the
same persistence.
> - The Instructions Editor and agent runs must share one current
directory.
> - Concurrent runs should apply only the files they change. The last
sync of the same file wins.
> - This pull request uses existing file transport and removes temporary
copies after sync.
> - Old instruction-only sessions keep their restore contract. New saves
do not create revision history.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #14325. This replaces its revision-oriented design with persistent
agent files. Keep #14325 unmerged.

Transport prerequisite #14416 merged first at
`d172197117a14b80a1eb2d2835a0e7cce2679656`. This PR now targets master
and remains below 100 changed files.

Related work: #4513 and #8798 cover instruction tooling. This change
handles run synchronization, cross-task personal files, browser editing,
and old-session restoration.

## What Changed

- Keep one current directory per company and agent. Point AGENT_HOME at
a temporary working copy for each active run. Keep task files and
provider HOME separate.
- Restore text, binary files, and nested folders through workspace
transport. Exclude remote agent files from task Git snapshots with a
self-ignoring file inside the reserved runtime directory; never write
through repository-controlled Git metadata.
- Collect after the provider and child processes have stopped. Keep
resumable conversation state.
- Apply changed and deleted files under the agent lock. The last sync
wins for the same file. Unrelated concurrent changes survive.
- Remove temporary copies after successful sync, rejected sync, and
staging failure. Register ownership before copying so restart recovery
can remove interrupted preparation. Retry transient synchronization up
to three times. Preserve the original remote lease reference until
deletion succeeds; restart cleanup never acquires a replacement sandbox.
Do not create captured directories or a conflict-review queue for new
runs.
- Keep browser editing, stale-draft protection, and streaming binary
downloads. Keep the instruction entry and text editor limited to 1 MiB.
- Keep historical agent-folder sync failures on their affected runs
instead of repeating them above current saved instructions. Preserve
legacy candidate review and current browser-save errors. Avoid duplicate
quota warnings while retaining separate sync failures when they describe
a different problem.
- Require target-scoped caller grants for peer instruction access, while
preserving self edits, responsible-user checks, and protected-change
consent.
- Treat full storage as a nonblocking run warning, never an agent pause
or run-admission failure. Restore already-over-quota saved folders so
ordinary agent cleanup can recover; warn on each run until cleanup. The
run detail view shows the warning.
- Allow 256 MiB per file, 2 GiB per directory, and 100,000 entries. Hash
large files as streams. Check editor-save quotas with metadata instead
of hashing unrelated files.
- Preserve old native inputs, instruction-only copies, paths, digests,
and pending legacy candidates. Adopt old revision heads once. New writes
do not append history rows.
- Add idempotent migration 0287 and verify upgrades from the preview
tables and receipts.
- Add nine interactive stories under **Agents / Persistent files**,
including automatic incoming edits, stale browser drafts, and
storage-limit diagnostics.

## Verification

- Merge candidate: `4f5390107ec6ffd80a76d1d2e85530e66f21d079`, after
merging current master and the landed transport prerequisite.
Integration required no manual conflict resolution; the feature remains
99 changed files. Full workspace typecheck, production build, token
gates, and 715 focused tests passed on this merge candidate. Fresh
Greptile review is 5/5 with no unresolved findings. All 55 checks
passed, with four conditional skips, including the build, typecheck,
browser E2E, and canary dry run. A single retry recovered four jobs
interrupted by runner shutdowns; no source changes were required.
- Historical-warning UI fix: all 6,834 UI tests across 640 files passed,
including regression coverage for three old failures, legacy preserved
edits, and warnings scoped to the affected run. Full workspace
typecheck, production build, Storybook build, and token gates passed.
Browser-verified Storybook playtests passed for Historical Failures
After Successful Save, Storage Limit, and Full Storage Run Warning.
- Review follow-ups at `4e20c9fb2`: all 18 focused tests passed,
including external Git directories, linked worktrees, symlinks,
hardlinks, and distinct I/O failures alongside storage warnings. Server
and UI typechecks, token gates, and the production build passed.
- Storage warning regressions at `0724f3012`: all 33 directory tests and
all five heartbeat-list tests passed, with no skips in their successful
runs. They cover repeated runs while full, an already-over-quota saved
folder, cleanup, warnings retained after unrelated save failures, and
bounded warnings in large result JSON. Server typecheck passed after the
final warning fixes.
- Full workspace typecheck, production build, and token gates passed
during this follow-up. Product E2E harness: 631 tests passed across 52
files; harness typecheck passed. Earlier native session/context and
directory/legacy collection suites passed 537 tests; Runner
unit/transport suites passed 329 tests.
- **Real E2E at `0724f3012` (before this follow-up):** legacy local
Codex and native Daytona Codex each passed six tasks, one server
restart, seven independent assertions, and cleanup verification. Both
prove browser-to-agent edits, agent-to-browser edits, nested/binary
restoration, per-file last-sync-wins, a successful run after an
oversized save rejection, and cleanup clearing the warning.
- Native local Codex also passed the six-task quota flow before the
final warning-retention fixes. That pass began at `918d1ed02` while the
bounded-result warning fix was being edited, so it is not claimed as
exact-final-head evidence. Its final-head rerun failed during embedded
PostgreSQL bootstrap before any provider run: the macOS host had 87,365
of 87,381 SysV semaphores occupied. No unrelated services or kernel
limits were changed.
- The final-source report intentionally records **2/3 cells passed**,
preserving the blocked native-local attempt:
`tests/runner-e2e/results/agent-files-quota-final-20260928-report/`.
Earlier failed attempts and provenance notes remain under
`tests/runner-e2e/results/agent-files-quota-final-20260928-input/` and
the original campaign directories.
- Daytona used immutable image
`ghcr.io/paperclipai/paperclip-daytona-runner@sha256:5643f0d801417cae3581833a1a3bc6715b325e028602738d2652c44cac5dc6bf`
and its exact Linux runner binary. Controller source is `0724f3012`;
image source is recorded separately.
- Legacy-session compatibility and all three ACP Stop/resume browser
regressions passed on the prior validated feature head
`169fab46d5af21caa2269b4c1b29b69c933a6951`. They assert the same
provider session is retained and interrupted writes are not replayed.
Migration upgrade tests also passed earlier.
- Nine interactive stories are under **Agents / Persistent files**,
including **Full Storage Run Warning**. Its playtest and visual browser
inspection passed; the warning states that runs continue and the editor
remains available.
- Prior-head checks on `4e20c9fb2`: 55 passed, two conditional jobs
skipped, no failures or pending checks. All eight browser E2E shards and
their aggregate passed. Fresh Greptile review is 5/5 with no findings;
all review threads are resolved, the security scan passed, and GitHub
reports no merge conflicts.
- The broad local follow-up test run was interrupted after host
semaphore exhaustion affected isolated PostgreSQL instances. It also
encountered the existing macOS long-path fixture failure and two timeout
failures. This is not a claim that the full local suite passed. Logs are
retained; focused storage/warning tests passed.

## Risks

- A later sync can overwrite an earlier edit to the same file, including
a saved browser edit. There is no text merge or retained version. This
is the intended last-sync-wins policy.
- A save that exceeds a storage limit is rejected and its temporary copy
is discarded. The run itself continues normally, and later runs restore
the last saved files with a warning until cleanup. Transient sync
failures get bounded retries. An I/O failure partway through a sync can
leave some files updated; a failed receipt does not claim whole-folder
success.
- Larger folders increase copy time, network traffic, and temporary disk
usage. Active runs still need working copies. Terminal runs do not
accumulate archives. Operators must provision disk for agents and
configured concurrency; these limits are not company-wide quotas.
- A restored old native session remains instruction-only until a fresh
session starts. Its original conflict fence and existing pending
candidates remain compatible.
- Provider processes close at the collection boundary. Conversation
resume remains available, but warm process reuse is lost.
- Backups must include the instance filesystem and database. External
bundles keep their existing behavior until explicitly moved to managed
storage.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The session does not expose a more specific
model ID or context-window size. Reasoning, code execution, and browser
tools assisted this change. Real provider E2E uses `gpt-5.6-sol`.

Devin Foley 8c6cc7dccf feat(cloud): sync primary-company archive state with the Cloud control plane (#13837)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Paperclip Cloud runs managed instances and controls their lifecycle
from a control plane.
> - Inside the app, a person can archive a company. On a managed
instance, the Cloud-pinned primary company is the whole organization.
> - Today that archive stays local. The control plane does not learn
about it, so it keeps the instance running and shows the organization as
live.
> - This pull request notifies the control plane when the primary
company crosses the archived boundary, and adds two control endpoints so
the control plane can verify the state and undo the archive during a
restore.
> - The benefit is that an archived organization stops running and shows
as archived, and a restore brings the company back without manual steps.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public issue exists. Description follows the enhancement template:

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Company archive on Cloud-managed instances. Archiving the primary
company pauses agents and cancels runs, but the hosting control plane
never learns about it.

**Subsystem affected**

Server: company service, cloud-control middleware, instance routes.

**Current behavior**

A person archives the primary company. The instance keeps running. The
Cloud portfolio still shows the organization as live. Unarchive after a
Cloud restore requires manual steps inside the product.

**Proposed behavior**

The company service rings a Cloud lifecycle doorbell when the primary
company is archived or unarchived. The control plane verifies the state
through `GET /api/instance/lifecycle` before it acts. During a restore,
the control plane calls `POST /api/instance/lifecycle/unarchive-primary`
to bring the company back. Self-hosted instances are not affected.

**Reason and benefit**

An archived organization should not keep running, and its hosting
console should show it as archived. The verified read-back keeps the
doorbell a hint: a forged or duplicated ring cannot change state.

## What Changed

- New `services/cloud-lifecycle-sync.ts`: fire-and-forget doorbell `POST
{cloudOrigin}/v1/tenant/lifecycle-changed` with bounded retries. It runs
only on cloud-managed instances, and only for the derived primary
company id. It never blocks or fails the company mutation.
- `services/companies.ts`: ring the doorbell after a committed archive
or unarchive transition, in both the `update()` status-patch path and
`archive()`.
- New `GET /api/instance/lifecycle`: reports the primary company id, its
status, and how many other companies are not archived. Bound to a
`lifecycle:read` Cloud control assertion; board members can also read
it.
- New `POST /api/instance/lifecycle/unarchive-primary`: idempotent
unarchive of the primary company as a system actor. Bound to
`lifecycle:unarchive-primary`; requires instance admin otherwise.
- `middleware/cloud-control.ts`: a closed endpoint→method→action table
replaces the single hardcoded endpoint. Each assertion still authorizes
exactly one action on one endpoint.
- `services/cloud-instance.ts`: the primary-company id derivation moves
here as the single definition; `middleware/auth.ts` delegates to it. The
derivation itself is unchanged.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec tsc --noEmit` in `server/` is clean.
- `pnpm exec vitest run src/__tests__/cloud-lifecycle-sync.test.ts
src/__tests__/cloud-control-task-drain.test.ts
src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/companies-service.test.ts
src/__tests__/cloud-tenant-company-provisioning.test.ts` — all pass.
- New tests cover: doorbell env-gating, retry bounds, no-throw contract;
the read-back status and sibling count; idempotent unarchive and the
admin gate; non-cloud 404s; control-assertion action binding for the new
endpoints, including cross-action and wrong-method rejection; and a
companies-service test that proves the doorbell rings exactly on
archived-boundary transitions.

## Risks

- Self-hosted instances see no behavior change: without a Cloud signal
the doorbell is a no-op and the endpoints answer 404.
- The doorbell is advisory by design. The control plane verifies through
the read-back before it acts, so a lost or duplicated ring cannot
corrupt state.
- The unarchive endpoint reuses the existing `companyService.update`
path, so agent reactivation and activity logging behave exactly like an
in-product unarchive.

- Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`), via Claude Code CLI, extended
thinking and tool use enabled.

DottaandPaperclip a10702a878 feat(slack): add governed tools for Slack-origin tasks (#13828)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Chat connectors let people start and continue agent tasks from other
services.
> - A Slack conversation needs access to its surrounding discussion and
Slack collaboration tools.
> - The agent must use the linked requester's access and keep private
material within its permitted audience.
> - This pull request adds Slack tools through the existing connector
contribution and approval framework.
> - People can ask an invited bot to read a discussion, create follow-up
tasks, and collaborate in Slack.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Chat connectors, connector runtime, tool gateway, and connection
Settings/Access.

**Problem or motivation**

Slack-origin tasks can receive messages but cannot inspect the rest of a
channel or act through the originating bot. People must paste context or
configure a separate integration.

**Proposed solution**

Supply typed Slack tools and a bundled skill only to the originating
task and assigned agent. Resolve the linked requester on the server.
Check bot and requester access before reads and writes. Use existing
durable actions and approvals. Retrieved messages remain source
material.

**Alternatives considered**

Slack's user-OAuth MCP server does not replace the customer-created chat
bot. An unrestricted Web API proxy would not provide suitable permission
or publication boundaries.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing MCP Tool Gateway & Apps work with a provider
contribution. It does not add a task dispatcher or a separate Slack task
lifecycle. Related: #11144 covers generic per-user MCP grant execution;
this change binds Slack bot operations to chat-origin tasks.

## What Changed

- Add 39 typed Slack tools, a method/scope matrix, a bundled skill, and
shared native/HTTP execution.
- Bind tools to company, endpoint, task, run, assigned agent, and
admitted linked requester. Check membership and revocation on each call
and before queued writes.
- Add paginated reads, bounded history search, source links, messages,
file uploads, reactions, pins, bookmarks, topics, canvases, lists, and
approved channel operations.
- Restrict private-source publication, including automatic replies and
uploaded deliverables. Keep other people's bot DMs inaccessible.
- Reuse action receipts, idempotency, approvals, and reconciliation.
Suppress an identical explicit-send/final-reply duplicate. Return
governed results through their verified originating conversation.
- Add endpoint-bound personal search OAuth storage and lifecycle. Keep
native real-time search disabled until a runtime meets Slack's
transient-result requirements. Current runtimes use bounded history
search.
- Show capabilities, scope upgrades, and personal search authorization
in Settings/Access and Storybook. Document provider and runtime limits.

## Verification

- Current head `0eb21cba4`: CI checks pass and Greptile is 5/5 with no
unresolved findings. One unchanged rapid-callback timing test passed on
a single CI retry.
- Approval presentation regressions cover board-comment precedence and
exact Slack publication; the expanded database assertion passed in CI.
The local PostgreSQL startup probe later became unavailable, so that
final assertion was verified in CI. Slack setup and failed-run retry
browser tests also passed locally.

- Full workspace typecheck and build passed. Server typecheck/build
passed again after the approval routing fix.
- Broad local suites passed in separate groups: server 12,958 tests, UI
6,555, shared 770, skills catalog 20, and other workspace packages
2,652. CLI and serialized server checks passed after environment/timeout
retries. These are composite results, not one uninterrupted green
full-suite invocation.
- PostgreSQL authority regression covers admitted identity,
cross-company/task/agent rejection, recovery, retained-session
revocation, OAuth refresh/disconnect races, approval execution, exact
publication lineage, retries, uncertain sends, and duplicate
suppression.
- Gateway/response regressions cover separate-origin approval batches
and durable continuation. Focused provider, access, search, native
runtime, route, and AgentMail regressions pass.
- Storybook capability, missing-scope, OAuth configuration,
authorization, and disconnect states were inspected in the browser.
- Live staging: read a channel decision and full thread, create exactly
two assigned backlog tasks, add a reaction, paginate discovery to
exhaustion, and return bounded search matches with source links and
coverage.
- Live staging: create/edit/read a canvas and list, inspect the canvas
in Slack, post/edit one message, and create a channel only after
approval. New channels remain disabled for responses.
- Live staging: read a response-disabled channel from the requester's
DM; writes to that channel were denied. The test setting was restored.
- Final live retest passed: explicit file upload and exact content
read-back; approved deletion of only the disposable bot message;
continuation confirmation returned to the original Slack thread without
repeating the action.
- Optional OAuth, private multi-user boundaries, native RTS, and CLI
provider execution are not fully live-qualified. The staging agent
initially supplied malformed tool arguments; valid arguments succeeded,
and the tool/skill descriptions now emphasize UUID write keys.

## Risks

- Existing Slack apps must add scopes and reinstall for new
capabilities. Provider plans and document permissions can still restrict
operations.
- Instances need an independent `PAPERCLIP_TOOL_ACTION_SIGNING_SECRET`
for governed tool actions. The staging instance was configured with
explicit operator approval; fleet provisioning is a separate gap.
- Native RTS is not exposed on current transcript-retaining runtimes.
Bounded history scans are deliberately reported as incomplete. Inline
file reads support text/canvas content up to 256 KiB; other types return
metadata.
- Private document edits fail closed when the full audience cannot be
verified. Uncertain effects other than posts/uploads require inspection
instead of blind retries.
- Shared approval-delivery code now separates outcomes by source run to
preserve origin boundaries. No database migration is required.
- A separate completion-validator gap remains when the agent cites a
prior run's registered artifact during finalization. It asked for
registration again even though Slack delivery was confirmed. This change
does not add a connector-specific task-completion policy.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with repository tools, code execution, and
browser testing. The exact deployed model identifier and context-window
size were not exposed in the session.

DottaandPaperclip 8813a50105 feat: run GitHub review bots through Paperclip agents (#13717)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agent work as tasks and runs.
> - GitHub chat brings repository conversations into those tasks.
> - A review bot needs the assigned agent, its authority, and governed
provider tools.
> - The existing channel connection did not supply that review workflow
or a complete setup journey.
> - This pull request adds GitHub App setup, account access, event
prompts, task-bound review tools, and exact-commit checks.
> - Operators can inspect each review through the same task, run, and
activity systems.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

GitHub chat, governed connection tools, task execution, shared/database
contracts, and connector setup UI.

**Problem or motivation**

Operators need a GitHub review bot that runs their assigned Paperclip
agent. Mentions and PR events must preserve task ownership and requester
authority. Provider publication must use the bot App identity and
enforce the configured permissions.

**Proposed solution**

Extend the existing GitHub chat connector with resumable App onboarding,
linked-member and sponsored-guest access, editable event prompts, and
governed review operations. Validate structured assessments on the
server and compute a stable Paperclip Review check for the exact head
commit.

**Alternatives considered**

A separate review scheduler would duplicate Paperclip execution and
permissions. Reusing personal GitHub credentials would change the bot
identity and credential boundary.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing Connected Apps and governed-tool
infrastructure. The project owner requested and approved this design.
Related PR #8645 imports external Codex review feedback; this change
runs an assigned Paperclip agent and publishes its results through the
existing chat connector.

## What Changed

- Include the current Paperclip instance origin in the copied setup
prompt. Storybook uses its configured Paperclip origin; callback
parameters and URL credentials are excluded.

- Add a Claude/Codex copy button in the real setup and Storybook opening
step. Its detailed prompt asks four setup questions and guides
embedded-browser setup, verification, and optional required checks.
Clipboard failure exposes selectable instructions.
- Add a tutorial that explains why App installation, review scheduling,
and required checks are separate choices.

- Add manifest registration, an existing-App path, separate installation
and repository selection, repository refresh, and explicit account
confirmation.
- Add low-trust agent guidance, effective capability verification,
member selection, and explicit restricted guests with a sponsor.
- Add configurable PR events, prompts, repository overrides, rating
thresholds, and separate formal-review permissions.
- Give the assigned agent governed App tools to read PRs, comment, begin
an assessment, submit findings, and optionally submit a formal review.
- Bind review history, root PR events, and inline replies to ordinary
tasks. Deduplicate deliveries/findings and reject stale publication.
- Link check Details to the underlying task on the current trusted
hostname, or to Reviews before task creation.
- Add schema migration 0283, API contracts, production UI, and 49
interactive Storybook states.
- Repair local lease recovery. Keep the Cloud Dockerfile identical to
master; no provider-pack layer or runtime-default environment variable
is added.
- Retry only rolled-back wake-admission transactions after transient
endpoint-lock contention. A deterministic held-lock regression proves
one accepted wake.

## Verification

- Current head: `7ba761fe007bb798400d3e62346fa964f607f0f8`, rebased on
master `d9b3a5653e41f2ee5a1345b97c86a238f7a5c8e9`. Dockerfile has zero
diff against master. Final workspace typecheck and build passed. The new
PostgreSQL migration regression passed and preserves existing relation
and constraint identities after replay.
- Greptile reviewed this exact head at 5/5. There are zero unresolved
review threads and no merge conflicts.
- All current-head checks are green: 54 passed and two conditional
Storybook jobs skipped. This includes complete server/workspace test
suites, build, typechecks, policy checks, Runner suites, browser suites,
and security status. One timing-sensitive callback-ordering test passed
in isolation and its CI shard passed one retry. The duplicate local
full-suite run was stopped after CI completed; it is not counted as a
local full-suite pass.
- Before the final Slack rebase and migration renumbering, 186 focused
GitHub tests, 14 native bootstrap cases, token gates, and Storybook
build passed. The final rebase retained the new Slack communication
guidance.
- The embedded-browser setup test copied the full detailed prompt,
including the configured Paperclip instance URL. Desktop and narrow
layouts were checked. Component tests cover successful copying and
clipboard failure with selectable text and retry.
- Live local and hosted GitHub acceptance evidence refers to application
revision `cb703ac959876a07ebf3d7a295847f9f351eb6fc`. Real agent tasks
exercised issue mentions, automatic PR reviews, inline findings,
repeated mentions, task continuation, and failing-to-passing checks
after a push. The Storybook agent generated, built, and browser-rendered
pages; missing acceptance text failed, matching text passed, and broken
JSX produced an incomplete result.
- Live cases also covered independently disabled push events, prompt
injection, duplicate signed deliveries, rapid pushes, stale-result
rejection, finding deduplication, and restart recovery. Formal reviews
were denied while disabled and published only after explicit enablement.
Check Details links pointed to the underlying task on the trusted
hostname.
- Those hosted native Claude runs used the provider-pack layer now
removed from this PR. They do not prove native Claude works on the
standard Cloud image. A replacement hosted native Codex run is not yet
verified: the disposable QA tenant has only an Anthropic AI connection.
No new staging or production deployment was made for the packaging
removal.
- Required-check merge enforcement could not be tested because the
private disposable repository's GitHub plan rejected the rules
configuration. Published success/failure/incomplete check states were
verified directly.

## Risks

- Latest master allocated migration 0282 to Slack. The GitHub migration
is regenerated as 0283 with replay-safe table/index/constraint creation;
a PostgreSQL regression verifies existing relations and constraints are
preserved. Existing preview tenants remain subject to the fleet
migration-history compatibility preflight; no bypass is introduced.

- Migration 0283 adds company-scoped configuration, registration,
review, and publication records. Existing connections retain their
behavior until reviews/tools are enabled.
- Signed webhooks and expiring registration state remain required.
Hosted installations also need the companion narrow Cloud gateway
exemptions.
- Agent assessments can be incomplete or wrong. The server enforces
coverage/result structure, current-head publication, rating policy, and
separate formal-review permission; it does not replace code-review
judgment.
- No Cloud image packaging changes are included. Remote native
ACPX/Claude and OpenCode retain their existing operator-supplied
provider-pack prerequisite. Native Codex and Codex with managed MCP
tools do not require that pack. Earlier staging deployment evidence
refers to its stated revision, not this packaging-removal head.
Production rollout and merging remain outside this change.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with repository, code execution, API, and
embedded-browser tools. The exact serving model ID and context-window
size were not exposed by the environment.

DottaandPaperclip b82661b561 refactor(connections): retire the legacy Composio broker (#13758)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their access to external tools.
> - Connectors expose these tools through a governed MCP gateway.
> - PR #13755 added a direct Composio MCP connection behind the
experimental MCP aggregators flag.
> - The old project API-key broker still created toolkit child
connections and showed a separate Services tab.
> - Keeping both paths leaves obsolete setup and session code in the
product.
> - This change removes the broker and preserves direct MCP setup,
credentials, permissions, and execution.
> - Saved legacy records fail closed and remain available for explicit
removal.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: #13755. This retirement supersedes the legacy-path fixes
proposed in #12630, #12632, #12634, and #12906. It does not close those
PRs.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Composio connector setup, management, and runtime dispatch.

**Current behavior**

Composio offers both direct MCP and a project API-key broker. The broker
mints sessions and creates one child connection per toolkit.

**Proposed behavior**

Offer only direct MCP. Remove the toolkit Services UI, REST routes, API
client, and session broker. Block saved legacy parent and child records
from discovery, execution, health checks, reconnect, and OAuth. Preserve
their records and credentials until the operator removes each
connection.

**Reason and benefit**

The direct MCP connector becomes the single supported Composio workflow.
Provider accounts remain managed in Composio.

## What Changed

- Remove the API-key catalog method and its generated-source definition.
- Delete Composio broker clients, session creation, account
synchronization, child lifecycle, and toolkit routes.
- Remove the Services tab, service rows, child provenance, and
cascade-removal controls. Keep Vercel provenance intact.
- Retain a shared retirement guard for stored legacy records. Show
Retired status and replacement/removal guidance in the connection list
and details; hide obsolete runtime controls.
- Preserve the experimental MCP aggregators flag and direct MCP
infrastructure.
- Replace broker fixtures with retirement tests and extend direct
Composio catalog/reconnect coverage.

## Verification

- Focused shared, server, and UI tests passed with one worker. Server
retirement tests use a name filter; no full local test suite was run, as
requested.
- Server and UI TypeScript checks passed.
- Token gates and UI build passed.
- Real browser: opened the saved Composio connection, refreshed all 11
tools, and ran the provider's read-only GitHub account-list operation
through the standard Test dialog as an agent. The provider returned
success using the existing OAuth credentials.
- See `doc/connections/COMPOSIO-BROKER-RETIREMENT.md` for scope and live
evidence.
- Storybook build passed. A fresh real agent used
`COMPOSIO_SEARCH_TOOLS` and `COMPOSIO_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL` to return the
actual Paperclip DeepWiki hierarchy: one success, zero errors. Gateway
audit records confirm both calls succeeded.
- Browser retirement check: a credential-free legacy fixture showed the
guidance, opened the direct MCP replacement flow, and was removed
through the standard confirmation.
- Focused regressions for the experimental settings copy and exact
OpenAPI route coverage passed. All latest-head CI checks passed (54
successful, two intentionally skipped); Greptile scored 5/5 with no
unresolved review threads. The PR has no merge conflicts.

## Risks

This intentionally breaks the old Composio project API-key and
child-connection workflow. Existing legacy records cannot run, even if
their stored status is active. Operators must create a new direct MCP
connection and choose access rules; credentials and grants are not
migrated. Remove each old record separately to delete its credentials.
No schema migration or data deletion runs automatically. Direct MCP
connections keep their existing grants and secrets.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 via Codex, with reasoning, code execution, and browser
tools. The exact runtime variant and context-window size are not exposed
in this session.

1ef3b08714 feat(ui): integrate agent personas across the app (#13171)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A stable agent persona is useful only when the same identity appears
across the app.
> - Lists, task messages, selectors, and activity feeds need inexpensive
static avatars.
> - Onboarding and agent headers need a larger character with
expressions and pointer tracking.
> - This pull request connects the persona foundation to those existing
views and preserves onboarding draft assignments.
> - Full-page stories and Linux checks make the placements and
performance contract reviewable.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Problem or motivation**

Agents need a stable visual identity in lists, tasks, onboarding, and
configuration. External tools also need an image URL for that identity.

**Proposed solution**

Assign each agent a permanent palette from a fixed ClipLab character
library. Store the assignment on the agent. Render and cache preset PNG
URLs on demand. Use static images in dense views and one animated
character in larger placements.

**Alternatives considered**

A generated image bundle requires a separate asset build. A live
renderer in every avatar adds unnecessary work in large lists. Arbitrary
uploaded images do not provide the requested shared character system.

**Roadmap alignment**

This improves agent identity across existing control-plane views. It
preserves agent permissions, company boundaries, and status labels.
ROADMAP.md has no separate ClipLab persona milestone.

Related approaches: #2422 adds configurable image URLs and DiceBear
generation; #5578 adds optional uploaded avatars. This work uses a
fixed, versioned character library and preset URLs.

## What Changed

- Replace agent icons with static persona images across lists, the
sidebar, org charts, tasks, comments, selectors, activity, and dashboard
views.
- Put one animated character in the agent header. Let it follow the
pointer across the page, with reduced-motion and touch fallbacks.
- Add larger padded characters to agent creation. Keep the palette
stable across draft refreshes and connection retries, then reveal it
after success.
- Pass appearance through shared projections rather than fetching each
agent separately.
- Add real full-page Storybook examples for the agent list, overview,
task, dashboard, new-agent dialog, and connection page.
- Add Linux screenshot, clipping, density, and 500-avatar performance
checks.

## Verification

- `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and token gates pass on the rebased
tree. Persona lifecycle tests pass.
- The rebased feature passes 38 Linux screenshot/performance checks,
including both display densities, corner pointer positions, and the
no-WebGL/no-live-download contract for 500 avatars.
- The final Linux persona suite passes all 38 visual, lifecycle,
density, and full-page checks using the standard Storybook configuration
and real on-demand avatar endpoint.
- Final local focused verification: 45 avatar/native-recovery tests
pass; UI identity/routine tests, typecheck/build, token gates, and
Storybook build pass.
- Current-head CI passes: full workspace/server tests, all serialized
server groups, typecheck/release checks, build, canary validation, and
end-to-end shards. The build passed after retrying a native-runner
concurrency-test failure; its three targeted cases also pass locally.
- Manual inspection covered stable identities in the app, header
placement, full-page mouse tracking, onboarding size, and task/dashboard
placements.


### Screenshots

Linux captures use synthetic Storybook fixtures. Full-page captures use
reduced motion. The live character, mouse tracking, and disposal are
checked separately.

## Risks

- This PR depends on #13170, the persona foundation. Merge the
foundation first, then retarget this PR to master.
- Many placements change from icons to character silhouettes. Human
avatars and authoritative agent status labels retain their existing
behavior.
- Only one character can render live per view. Reduced motion,
hidden/offscreen content, touch input, and renderer failures use the
defined fallbacks.
- The full-page stories use fixture data. They do not contact a real
company or complete real provider sign-in.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family. The exact model identifier and context
window are not exposed in this session. Used code editing, shell
execution, browser inspection, and Linux visual testing.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip e18ed02a56 Validate heartbeat run IDs before database lookups (#13657)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators inspect heartbeat runs, logs, and provider traces through
the API.
> - These routes use UUID database keys.
> - A malformed path value such as `undefined` reaches the database and
causes a server error.
> - This pull request validates run IDs before those lookups.
> - Valid requests keep the existing company and permission checks.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related: Refs #8135. That proposal guards actor run headers and activity
writes; this fix covers heartbeat run path parameters.

**What happened?**

A request such as `GET /api/heartbeat-runs/undefined` passes a non-UUID
value to a UUID lookup and returns a server error. Run logs and the
other heartbeat run endpoints have the same unchecked path input.

**Expected behavior**

Reject malformed run IDs with HTTP 400 before any run lookup. Preserve
valid run reads, company isolation, and the existing board and
instance-admin checks.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Request a heartbeat run endpoint with `undefined`, `null`, another
malformed ID, or a UUID with surrounding whitespace.
2. Observe the database UUID error.
3. Run the route regressions before and after this change.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Confirmed on master at `6d0342868`.

**Deployment mode**

The defect affects API deployments backed by PostgreSQL. Regression
tests exercise the actual Express routes and authorization code with
stubbed services. The historical request does not identify the
originating client, so this change does not alter a guessed UI caller.

## What Changed

- Share strict run-ID validation across the 12 heartbeat run endpoints
in the agent router.
- Keep existing board and instance-admin gates ahead of validation. Keep
valid-run company and telemetry checks intact.
- Reject surrounding whitespace, which the shared UUID helper accepts
but PostgreSQL rejects.
- Encode the UUID constraint and document the 400 response in OpenAPI.
Test the generated parameter pattern on all 12 endpoints.
- Cover malformed IDs on every affected endpoint, uppercase UUIDs,
missing and cross-company runs, and permission precedence. Use
UUID-shaped run fixtures in existing route tests.

## Verification

- Before the fix: four malformed-ID regression cases fail; three
access-control cases pass.
- Focused agent route, permission, cross-company, and OpenAPI suites:
154 tests passed, including the final uppercase-UUID case.
- Direct server typecheck passed: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server
exec tsc --noEmit`.
- The full local test attempt is still running; the complete Linux test
suite passed in CI. Local results will be recorded when it finishes.
- Complete Linux CI passed on the exact head: 53 checks passed, two
non-applicable checks skipped. One untouched preview-service readiness
test failed initially; its three targeted cases passed locally and the
failed-jobs-only CI rerun passed. Greptile scored the final head 5/5
with no unresolved comments.
- Full local `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` reach the native
runner step and stop because `cargo` is absent. The complete Linux CI
checks passed.

## Risks

Low risk: this changes malformed route inputs to HTTP 400. Valid UUID
requests keep their existing lookup and authorization paths. There is no
migration, dependency, provider operation, or configuration change. The
separate activity router and actor run headers are outside this change.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with code editing, shell execution, and test
tools. The exact context window size was not exposed.

DottaandPaperclip 924f07be8c feat(chat): simplify Slack onboarding and account linking (#13638)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Chat connections let people start and continue that work from Slack.
> - Setup mixed app creation, credentials, URL verification, account
linking, and testing on the same screens.
> - People also needed a safe way to link their own Slack identity after
the first operator finished setup.
> - This pull request gives each step a clear place and keeps membership
approval separate from identity linking.
> - It also makes connection details easier to use and fixes misleading
callback health behind HTTPS proxies.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**
Cross-cutting: chat routes and services, shared contracts, and the Apps
board UI.

**Problem or motivation**
Slack onboarding made users find settings without enough guidance. A
second user needed operator help to link their account. Activity stopped
at 100 records, and TLS termination could mark working callbacks as
stale.

**Proposed solution**
Use six setup steps with editable app names, a generated manifest,
credential guidance, URL verification, account linking, and an optional
message test. Send each Slack user a private, expiring confirmation
link. Require company membership or an approved access request before
linking. Add cursor pagination and tolerate the internal HTTP hop in
callback diagnostics.

**Roadmap alignment**
This improves the existing connected-app surface and supports CEO Chat
without changing the task-and-comments model. The maintainer requested
and reviewed the flow during a live Slack test drive.

**Additional context**
Related work: #7, #3349, #13000, and #13620. Those cover broader chat
capabilities, older webhook paths, or plugins. This PR improves the
existing native connector's setup and account-linking flow. HTTPS
documentation was published separately in
paperclipai/paperclip-docs#128.

## What Changed

- Split Slack onboarding into six clickable sidebar steps. Keep
secondary and primary actions on one row.
- Generate the Slack creation link and read-only manifest from editable
app, bot, and command names. Add credential prefix validation and direct
instructions.
- Add live account-link status and an optional mention-based message
test.
- Add private, single-use Slack account invitations and membership
access requests. Retain cloud authentication/bootstrap checks and
enforce the chat rollout flag in all identity APIs. Default new Slack
connections to linked users only.
- Put Settings, Access, Conversations, and Activity in the sidebar.
Simplify conversation rows and remove active header badges.
- Add 25-item activity pages, stable timestamp/ID cursors, and replay
safety across pages. Preserve the legacy array API for clients without
pagination parameters.
- Fix false callback warnings when HTTPS terminates at a proxy. Keep
host, port, and path drift detection.
- Document the setup flow, pagination, callback diagnostics, and shared
wizard footer rule.

## Verification

- Passed: `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, and `pnpm
check:token-gates`.
- Passed: focused Slack callback and pagination integration tests; UI
clipboard, wizard, pagination, and activity tests; OpenAPI route tests.
The final access-gate fix also passes 27 focused tests covering cloud
authentication/bootstrap, nonmember invitations, token validity, and the
server-enforced rollout flag.
- Passed: all 1,002 chat integration tests, 6,356 UI tests, and all 11
provider browser scenarios (including mobile light/dark navigation).
After rebase, the identity route, sidebar, and 25 clipboard tests pass.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` was attempted. The first run found 14
Slack fixtures that needed explicit guest access; those are fixed and
the complete chat suite passes. Unrelated embedded PostgreSQL
startup/resource failures and timeouts prevented a clean full local run.
All CI checks pass on `2d858b036`, including the full chat, server,
workspace, build, typecheck, and browser suites.
- Live test drive: Slack app creation, credential setup, URL
verification, private account confirmation, mention messages, and thread
replies. Verified the callback warning clears for the existing proxied
connection.
- Review: create a Slack connection, follow the six steps, link a second
user's account, and browse older activity with Next and Previous.

## Risks

- Identity invitations carry a temporary capability. Tokens are hashed,
expire after 15 minutes, work once, and require explicit confirmation by
a company member. Access requests do not grant membership.
- New Slack connections reject unlinked people by default. Existing
connection settings remain intact.
- Activity is a live ledger. Updated action rows can move forward in
time. Older pages do not poll.
- Proxy tolerance affects health display only. Slack signature checks
and proxy authentication settings remain unchanged.
- No database migration or package-lock changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with reasoning, repository tools, code
execution, and browser verification. The runtime does not expose an
exact model build ID or context-window size.

Devin FoleyandPaperclip 6fe8e30625 feat(apps): add Railway connection and governed deployment tools (#13415)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Apps gives agents governed access to external resources.
> - Operators need to inspect Railway services, read logs, deploy code,
and run container commands.
> - Railway offers hosted MCP with OAuth, but broad remote actions hide
their internal operations.
> - This PR adds a branded connection and fixed direct operations
through the existing gateway.
> - Separate SSH keys enable container commands under the same grants
and policies.
> - Operators can require approval for an action and inspect the
resulting audit record.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Apps catalog, connection setup, gateway execution, and connection
documentation.

**Problem or motivation**

Agents need Railway access through Paperclip. Operators need to grant
and revoke that access, inspect available actions, and govern deployment
and container operations without giving agents provider credentials.

**Proposed solution**

Reuse hosted MCP OAuth, vault storage, catalog discovery, grants, and
the gateway. Probe the actual credential before enabling fixed GraphQL
operations. Use a dedicated grant-owned SSH key for bounded container
commands.

**Alternatives considered**

A catalog entry alone cannot execute the missing operations. The hosted
general agent has opaque internal effects. An unrestricted CLI runtime
can bypass action policy and inherit ambient credentials.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends the existing MCP Tool Gateway & Apps path and the Connected
Apps direction in ROADMAP.md. It does not add a plugin or parallel
connection service.

Related PRs #311, #939, and #7861 concern hosting Paperclip on Railway.
They do not add this outbound Apps connection. The separate shared
agent-picker fix is #13414 and is not included here.

## What Changed

- Add the generated Railway catalog entry, official marks, provenance,
and OAuth setup guidance.
- Add fixed service/deployment status, bounded logs, and
redeploy/restart/rollback tools. Block source deployment until the
provider can atomically bind the approved repository and commit.
- Verify API access with an explicit workspace before exposing direct
tools.
- Add grant-owned SSH key setup and a bounded runner with host
verification, target checks, isolated state, and cleanup.
- Block the opaque hosted railway-agent and accept-deploy actions.
Preserve normal Allowed defaults and Ask-first policies for other
actions.
- Quarantine new or changed Railway schemas after initial discovery,
including reconnect.
- Add provider, lifecycle, gateway, SSH, UI, and browser fixtures.
Document setup, limitations, and the release checklist.

## Verification

- Security follow-up: removed the unsafe source-deployment mutation.
Direct calls and old active catalog entries are denied before any
upstream request, including normalized aliases. Refresh marks retired
entries disabled. All 386 focused Railway, catalog and gateway tests
passed, and server TypeScript checking passed. Full [GitHub
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/35139421144)
passed on d86530ab9, including typecheck, build, all tests, runner
checks, and browser tests. Superagent passed and confirmed the P2 fix.
Greptile reviewed the same commit at 5/5 with no findings.

- CI follow-up: fixed the missing Railway SSH operation in the OpenAPI
document, including its request schema, operator-only authentication,
and error responses. The failure reproduced locally before the fix; all
403 selected API, Railway, catalog, and artwork tests passed after it.
Synced current master and resolved the catalog/artwork conflicts.

- After rebase: 440 focused provider, lifecycle, gateway, catalog, and
container-panel tests passed. AppDetail and AppsConnect passed another
196 tests.
- Full typecheck, build, token gates, and the gallery browser check
passed after rebase.
- During implementation, full build and the gallery browser check
passed. Shared generic-MCP fixtures covered OAuth callback/state/issuer
binding and failure paths.
- Local live consent and tools/list succeeded. There were 44 active
hosted actions and two blocked actions. A workspace-bound API probe and
direct project/service/environment reads succeeded. The inspected
project had no deployed services. No provider mutation ran.
- Full GitHub CI passed on commit 303340f19, including all
server/workspace test groups, typecheck, build, runtime verification,
release dry run, and browser tests. The original local full-run attempt
was incomplete; the complete automated suite is now verified in CI.

Manual review: connect Railway, review the actual actions, install for
an agent, and run a resource read through the gateway. Choose Ask first
before testing a deployment mutation. Configure a dedicated key only
when container access is needed.

**Release qualification is still open.** Live agent gateway reads/logs,
rejected and approved deployment calls, refresh/revoke, public HTTPS
consent, and SSH enrollment/commands/cleanup need an authorized
disposable service. The passing API diagnostic does not replace those
tests. See doc/connections/RAILWAY.md and RAILWAY-REVIEW.md.

## Risks

Overall risk is medium. New runtime behavior is gated to Railway
connections, but the PR changes shared catalog, credential lifecycle,
and gateway code. A regression in those paths can affect other Apps
connections. The highest-impact operations are Railway deployments and
container commands.

- Provider consent can authorize an entire workspace. Catalog labels are
not local resource allowlists. Direct tools check target membership, and
provider permissions still apply.
- Shell commands have broad internal authority. Action policy cannot
approve each internal shell step. Timeouts close the local connection
but cannot guarantee remote child-process termination.
- Log and command output may contain application secrets that pattern
redaction cannot recognize.
- Source deployment is unavailable until the provider supports atomic
repository/commit binding. Existing deployments can still be redeployed,
restarted or rolled back.
- No database migration is required. Rollback can remove promotion and
direct dispatch while preserving connection data and the generic MCP
path.
- Live Railway qualification must still pass before release acceptance.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, with code execution and browser testing.
An independent read-only security agent reviewed the local
implementation. The exact serving model ID and context window were not
exposed in this session.

DottaandPaperclip 728f7185f6 feat: add native in-app announcements with persistent dismissal (#13403)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Self-hosted boards need a way to show occasional product
announcements.
> - An app release should not be required to publish or withdraw a card.
> - Native card controls keep publishing consistent; the hero can use a
static image or isolated HTML/CSS animation.
> - This pull request renders a validated JSON feed with native
components.
> - It stores dismissals per account on each instance, so a closed card
stays closed across companies and browsers.
> - Named staging feeds let authors test content before production
publication.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**

Board application shell, announcement delivery, and user preferences.

**Problem or motivation**

Operators need a small, optional announcement card. Users need reliable
dismissal state. Authors need to test remote content without changing
the production feed.

**Proposed solution**

Add one non-modal AnnouncementWell. Fetch validated JSON and
content-addressed media through the instance server. Keep card controls
native, with optional sandboxed HTML/CSS animation in the hero. Use
stable announcement IDs for dismissal, an explicit empty manifest and
quiet 404 handling. Provide a staged publishing helper and isolated
test-drive guide.

**Alternatives considered**

Hosting the entire card as a page would move navigation and dismissal
into remote content. This change limits HTML to a scriptless, isolated
visual hero and keeps controls native. Browser-only storage would lose
dismissals across browsers, so the instance stores account preferences.

**Roadmap alignment**

ROADMAP.md has no overlapping announcement feature. A GitHub title
search found no related announcement pull requests. This work implements
a maintainer-requested feature.

## What Changed

- Add shared feed types, strict validation of every object, supported
routes, expiration and version checks.
- Add a board-only current-feed API, constrained media proxy, and
idempotent dismissal API. Store the first dismissal and its company
audit entry in one transaction.
- Cache upstream data for one hour. Use conditional requests, request
deduplication, response limits, public destination checks, and a
three-second deadline. Treat a remote 404 as an empty feed with a
fifteen-minute retry cooldown.
- Keep announcement visibility stable when focus moves to browser chrome
or another app pane; only tab visibility starts a return check.
- Add a responsive native announcement card. Respect onboarding, dialogs
and toast placement. Sync pending dismissals across tabs and retry after
reconnect or return.
- Add idempotent migrations for dismissals and validated publication
IDs, design-guide examples, static and animated Storybook examples, and
focused tests. The publication registry supports offline retries without
accepting caller-invented IDs.
- Add HTML/CSS animated heroes with static posters, automatic playback,
reduced-motion handling, strict DOMPurify validation, an empty iframe
sandbox and CSP that blocks scripts/network resources.
- Add validated staging publication, content-addressed assets, an empty
production manifest, preview fixtures, and authoring/operator
documentation.

## Verification

- The preceding implementation passed 98 targeted
shared/server/publisher/route/OpenAPI/UI tests and 127 tests including
the master rebase. The playback-control removal passes all 21
announcement UI tests, covering the rendered sandbox, fallback, reduced
motion, dismissal and slow/stale state lookups. The preceding
shared/server tests cover HTML validation and response sandbox headers.
- The playback-control removal passes UI typecheck, production UI build,
Storybook build and token gates locally. Browser verification confirms
the animated card has only its dismiss button and two links, with no
page errors. The full canonical CI matrix passed on current head
`00e416431edb610861599d50490270bbd0f3c6b6`: 32 successful checks and two
optional Storybook deployment checks skipped. This run needed no
retries. Greptile reviewed this same head at 5/5 with no outstanding
findings.
- The local canonical general-server run passed 12,063 tests before
reporting embedded-PostgreSQL startup failures in an unrelated fixture.
All 31 tests in that fixture passed across isolated retries. The UI
group passed 6,219 tests and other workspace groups passed 3,201; two
CLI database-startup failures also passed individually. Serialized
server suites were verified by the full CI matrix rather than repeating
them locally. No source changes were needed for these environment
failures.
- The real S3/CloudFront staging manifest and both media asset headers
were verified. Production remains empty/unpublished. The guide
distinguishes the preview host's disabled edge cache from production
cache requirements.
- In the isolated test-drive, the animation visibly moves without
playback controls. A 390×844 browser viewport keeps the card above
navigation. Reduced motion makes no animation request. Both themes
render correctly and browser page errors are empty. Browser fault
injection verified that scripts cannot execute and CSS cannot make
network requests; a missing animation leaves its poster and controls.
- Refresh leaves the animated card visible. Closing it persists after
reload and the API returns null. Earlier live checks verified dismissal
across browsers, company-relative CTA navigation, modal
deferral/restoration, and new-ID eligibility after restarting the same
database.
- The deployed empty feed and a real remote 404 return HTTP 200 with
null from the board API, with a usable dashboard and no announcement
popup or browser warnings.
- Authoring documentation covers staging, animated HTML constraints,
test-drive, withdrawal, ID reuse and cache-refresh steps.

## Risks

- Animation supports self-contained visual HTML/CSS and inline SVG,
without JavaScript or external resources. A static image is required.
Older builds that do not recognize the optional animation field quietly
hide that unsupported feed.
- The default feed makes an outbound request from an instance when a
board is used. Operators can disable it. Requests contain no account
IDs, company data, cookies or interaction events.
- Feed publication and withdrawal can take about 65 minutes to reach
returning users because of CDN and instance caches. Expiration also
removes visible cards locally.
- Dismissals follow an account within one instance. No-login instances
share the existing local-board identity. Separate installations do not
share state.
- Both tables are additive. A unique key prevents duplicate dismissals;
the transaction prevents duplicate first-dismissal audit entries. The
publication registry retains only validated IDs. AGENTS.md and the
