## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to manage AI agents for work. > - The relevant subsystem is the agent heartbeat policy surface: the Paperclip skill, default onboarding AGENTS.md, new-agent runtime defaults, and promptfoo eval coverage for agent behavior. > - A broad recovery PR collected several unrelated local-mainline changes, which made review too large and mixed policy/eval updates with server execution and UI work. > - This PR extracts only the heartbeat policy and prompt-eval slice so reviewers can assess the behavior contract independently. > - The eval additions cover scoped wake handling, idle no-op behavior, dependency-blocked comment triage, final disposition, budget hard stops, and Phase 5 memory/control-surface policy expectations. > - The benefit is a narrower review surface plus deterministic follow-up guidance for server/shared tests that should back these prompt-level checks. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Refs #8866 No public issue was filed for this split. This is a focused extraction from the closed broad recovery PR so heartbeat policy and eval coverage can be reviewed separately from execution behavior, work-product feature work, plugin hardening, pipeline health, and unrelated UI polish. ## What Changed - Added promptfoo release-gate cases for scoped wake payload handling, idle exits, dependency-blocked comment triage, final disposition, and budget hard-stop behavior. - Added Phase 5 memory/control-surface prompt eval cases for provider binding precedence, provenance/audit fields, hook cost/trust handling, and auditable board command surfaces. - Documented how these prompt evals map to deterministic server/shared follow-up coverage. - Updated agent policy guidance so operator-facing engineering outputs such as PRs, branches, commits, previews, and runtime services get matching work products. - Defaulted new agent runtime config to skip timer heartbeats when there is no actionable work, with focused test coverage. ## Verification - `cd evals/promptfoo && npx promptfoo@latest validate -c promptfooconfig.yaml` passes. - `/srv/paperclip/home/paperclipai/paperclip/node_modules/.bin/vitest run ui/src/lib/new-agent-runtime-config.test.ts` passes in an isolated worktree after `pnpm install --ignore-scripts --frozen-lockfile` created workspace links. - A live promptfoo eval was not run because `OPENROUTER_API_KEY`, `OPENAI_API_KEY`, and `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` were unset in the workspace. ## Risks Low-to-medium risk. The runtime default reduces timer-driven empty heartbeats for newly created agents, so the main behavioral risk is missing an edge case where timer wakes were expected despite no actionable work. The promptfoo additions are deterministic assertion coverage and documentation-only until a live eval is run with provider credentials. > For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`. ## Model Used OpenAI GPT-5-based Codex coding agent in the Paperclip local Codex adapter environment; exact hosted model ID and context window were not exposed to the agent runtime. Tool use included shell, git, promptfoo validation, Vitest, and the GitHub connector/CLI. ## Checklist - [x] I have included a thinking path that traces from project context to this change - [x] I have specified the model used (with version and capability details) - [x] I have checked ROADMAP.md and confirmed this PR does not duplicate planned core work - [x] I have searched GitHub for duplicate or related PRs and linked them above - [x] I have either (a) linked existing issues with `Fixes: #` / `Closes #` / `Refs #` OR (b) described the issue in-PR following the relevant issue template - [x] I have not referenced internal/instance-local Paperclip issues or links (only public GitHub `#NNN` / `github.com/paperclipai/paperclip` URLs) - [x] My branch name describes the change (e.g. `docs/...`, `fix/...`) and contains no internal Paperclip ticket id or instance-derived details - [x] I have run tests locally and they pass - [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable - [x] I have updated relevant documentation to reflect my changes - [x] I have considered and documented any risks above - [x] All Paperclip CI gates are green - [x] Greptile is 5/5 with no open P2s, recommendations, or follow-ups - [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before requesting merge --------- Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
