Paperclip Native Runner

This package is the standalone development boundary for Paperclip's native runner protocol, process supervision, durable transport, provider drivers, and normalized session backends. Rust owns the production runner under runner/; TypeScript provides the control-plane reference, browser SDK, scenario tools, and conformance oracle.

The package includes one coherent set of capabilities: PRP v1 validation and replay, a supervised local runner with a scripted fake harness, durable WebSocket delivery and recovery, qualified Codex, OpenCode, ACPX, Claude Managed, and AWS AgentCore drivers, live session and issue-thread surfaces, a public browser/React SDK, a standalone adapter demo, and a deterministic mock control plane. None of these surfaces imports or starts Paperclip's server, UI, CLI, or production database.

Connection continuations inspect the harness descriptor's optional toolRefreshOnResume capability. Native Codex, Claude Managed Agents, AgentCore, OpenCode, and qualified Claude/Codex/Grok ACPX profiles expose it; unqualified harnesses leave it false or absent. Changing tools can replace a provider process while retaining the provider conversation. Company, agent, task, workspace, model, instruction, and skill compatibility still gate recovery. An MCP-only assignment change can resume only when the selected harness explicitly supports refreshing tools.

Compact continuation messages include the active completion revision and criterion IDs plus a reminder to obtain an accepted paperclip_finish or paperclip_block result for this turn. Reports from earlier turns do not finish the new turn. Provider final text alone remains insufficient; governed waits and strict native completion validation keep their existing behavior. This reminder changes the resumed model input, not the tool catalog or automatic retry policy.

When recovery needs a fresh conversation, the server supplies a deterministic handoff through a lazy history loader at the fresh attempt boundary. It includes the original request, recent messages, resolved interaction summaries, agent replies, and document excerpts, with source identities and retrieval instructions. Reads and excerpts are bounded; the handoff has a 24,000-byte ceiling and explicit truncation/omission markers. Conversation reset boundaries, deleted messages, source quarantine, and secret redaction apply before model submission. Successful recovery does not fetch or replay the handoff. Legacy adapters advertise supportsToolRefreshOnResume for their selected harness: Claude and Codex CLI/ACP, Grok CLI, Gemini/Kimi CLI/ACP, and Cursor/OpenCode/Pi CLI. CLI adapters using environment tool delivery start each invocation with current endpoints and credentials, including resumed turns. ACP reloads current MCP bindings, including run-scoped credentials, while preserving the conversation; an unqualified/custom harness retains its restart fence. Legacy fresh attempts receive the same bounded handoff, including resume-failure fallbacks. Provider authentication repairs retain their existing fresh-session recovery behavior.

ACPX release declarations

acpx-profiles.json owns the package versions, command/profile digests, and required execution policies used by TypeScript and Rust. It contains no models. After changing it, run pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner generate:acpx-profiles. Normal build and typecheck reject stale generated declarations. Generation also checks installed dependency pins and agreement with Cursor's distribution manifest and immutable release attestation (cursor-contract.json). Cursor's per-platform closure pins are generated from cursor-distributions.json.

Every ACPX harness accepts an explicit caller-selected model without a Paperclip model allowlist. The adapter sends that ID unchanged and verifies the provider's effective model before prompting. An incomplete discovery catalog does not block selection; a provider rejection or mismatch fails without choosing a fallback. Qualification model selections live in test catalogs, separately from optional product defaults. The legacy resolved snapshot field qualificationModel contains the caller's selected model; its serialized name preserves recovery identities. Historical profile fixtures remain immutable evidence, not release declarations. The bundled ACPX package tests exercise unlisted model selection, rejection, exact acknowledgement, and replay on a loaded connection. Catalog membership and Cursor model-alias expansion do not determine the selected model. Provider activity adapters own native tool identities, evidence, and diagnostic usage projection; the shared driver and sidecar consume those hooks.

Public package surfaces

• @paperclipai/paperclip-runner — production contracts, clients/backends, PRP validation/replay, canonical catalog/dispatcher, and compatibility check.
• @paperclipai/paperclip-runner/testing — deterministic mocks plus PRP and semantic conformance kits. Tests and external conformance consumers import this explicitly.
• @paperclipai/paperclip-runner/evals — versioned native-attempt metadata, fail-closed package/binary compatibility checks, and explicit runnerd artifact resolution for eval consumers.

The package root has no mock or scenario exports. Generic credential-free matrix orchestration lives in the workspace-private @paperclipai/paperclip-eval-kernel; scenario content and provider-backed eval campaigns remain outside the runtime package. See ADR 0001.

The two conformance surfaces intentionally prove different contracts. The existing runControlPlanePortConformance suite checks narrow PRP run/event persistence. CAPABILITY_HIGH_RISK_SEMANTIC_VECTORS and runSemanticConformanceKit compare normalized tool authorization, state, effects, audit, retries, conflicts, redaction, continuation, and terminal decisions. The production adapter stays App-owned and invokes Paperclip's real route/service authorities; it does not copy those rules into this package.

Quick start

Native provider debug-trace correlation uses an incremental index owned by its transport. Pending event lookups read only newly appended bytes, with a 1 MiB read budget per lookup; they retry until the observed suffix is indexed. Partial records remain pending, and trace replacement or truncation invalidates the index. Closing a transport clears its index. Other active transports cannot evict its progress. Records over 64 KiB are skipped by the correlation index without buffering or parsing their full contents; the original trace file retains them. Do not restore a full synchronous trace scan for each pending event: it blocks event delivery and can leave the board showing an active run after the provider turn has already ended.

The package also builds paperclip-runner-acpx-sidecar. This bounded v2 stdin/stdout bridge admits the pinned Claude, Codex, Grok and Cursor ACPX profiles. It validates the exact model, session identity, tool catalog, structured input, and terminal settlement at the process boundary. Copilot and Pi remain gated. Verified distributions are build-owned; no provider accepts an arbitrary executable. See the rich ACP capability report.

Install Cursor explicitly with paperclipai runtime setup cursor; npm installation does not download it. Run setup as the OS user that runs Paperclip (the service account for a managed service). Setup writes to that account's ~/.paperclip/runtimes/cursor/<platform>-<arch>/<closure-sha256>, so a system-wide npm installation can remain read-only. Isolated provider HOME/XDG settings do not redirect this cache. Container images continue to use their packaged assets. Configure a company secret binding for CURSOR_API_KEY or CURSOR_AUTH_TOKEN, select Cursor in the Runner configuration, and select an exact model ID. Agent is the default; Plan and Ask are explicit modes. Paperclip semantic questions are supported. Native AskQuestion and authoritative per-run dollar usage are unavailable. Accepting a native plan ends the planning run successfully while the task waits for the next instruction. See the Cursor release report.

A release includes all three platform daemons and the Linux provider-pack identity from its matching Daytona image. Run stage:release-binaries with a manifest that binds each daemon path and SHA-256, plus remoteProviderPack: {path, sha256} for the actual image's provider-pack.json. Assemble these assets after the normal build and include them in the server's vendored Runner output before npm packing. Assembly requires the provider pack's source revision to match sourceRevision and its ACPX profiles and Cursor distribution to match the current source pins. An independently rehashed older pack is rejected. Ordinary remote Cursor startup uses the packaged Linux daemon and verifies every image asset against that manifest. A mismatched image fails before the provider starts; install the matching package and image together.

Remote Codex sessions relay assigned app tools through the server's configured gateway. Small catalogs are sent directly. When a catalog would exceed the runner's 256-operation or 768 KiB contract limit, the server exposes paperclip_search_assigned_tools and paperclip_call_assigned_tool instead. Search returns bounded pages of names, descriptions, and input schemas. Each page intersects the session's pinned assignments with current gateway grants. An individual schema that exceeds a page returns an inputSchemaRef. The same search tool retrieves that schema in chunks via schemaTool and schemaOffset; discovery can continue past the large tool. Calls retain task ownership, work-mode restrictions, gateway authorization, approvals, and audit. Core task tools and the runner's completion tools keep their reserved space; no assigned tools are silently removed to fit the limit.

Native Claude skill assignments travel in the runtime-context snapshot through runnerd to the ACPX sidecar. After acquiring the provider lifetime lease, the host materializes the assigned bundles under the isolated Claude home's skills/ directory before launch. Reopening a provider refreshes that snapshot; project and ambient host settings remain excluded. This path is separate from the legacy claude_local adapter's remote skill staging.

The isolated Claude settings pin both model and availableModels to the user's requested ID. This keeps ACP from replacing an exact ID with a picker alias during selection and verification. Users can keep selecting models from the normal Claude catalog or entering custom IDs; unavailable models still fail at the provider rather than silently falling back.

ACPX Claude defaults to approve-all, shown as Full auto (approve all). OpenCode defaults to allow; native Codex defaults to never (no approval pauses). These defaults cover all assigned tools and connections, including provider-native operations. Full auto is resolved consistently for agent creation, adapter conversion, direct driver launches, and fresh/resumed turns. Explicitly stored restrictive modes still apply.

The runner's authenticated bridge and controller still enforce company access, action claims, task modes, and governed approvals. Provider permission defaults do not change workspace isolation or grant credentials or connection access. approve-paperclip remains an optional narrower mode for assigned planning and task tools; approve-reads allows assigned reads; deny-all rejects requests. None of these restrictive modes is the default.

Restrictive profiles route supported permission decisions through durable runtime requests and the existing task interaction controls. Requests are persisted before presentation; answers are checked against the offered decisions and acknowledged by the sidecar before settlement. Unknown, stale and duplicate responses fail. Missing provider decision support remains a blocked disposition, not implicit approval. Company access checks still run for each Paperclip tool. Provider death expires pending promises; approvals are never replayed into a replacement process.

Automatic Paperclip/read allowances currently require the Claude SDK dispatch boundary. Grok preserves these restricted settings, but its ACP requests lack independently bound tool authority. Those operations require a supported operator permission decision; a missing interactive responder stops with approval_required. An explicitly selected approve-all policy permits unattended Grok work in an assigned sandbox. Paperclip authorization and governed approvals still apply.

Runnerd selects only qualified provider profiles. Claude Managed and AWS AgentCore receive immutable company-profile snapshots with explicit retention, spend, and invocation limits. No provider process receives a Paperclip API credential or unrestricted server environment.

Claude Managed resolves its API key from the company secret bound to the selected profile. AWS AgentCore uses workload identity only; long-lived static AWS access keys are intentionally removed from the runner environment.

The Rust core includes a bounded client for the sidecar protocol. It enforces request identity, event order, frame and queue limits, timeouts, redacted diagnostics, and process-group cleanup. Runnerd selects this package-local transport only through an exact qualified provider descriptor.

Before a later provider adapter consumes a valid sidecar event, the Rust core also requires its optional or mandatory run and turn scope to match the active execution. Process and diagnostic events can remain global. All operational, tool, input, permission, and terminal events require the exact active binding.

A package-local payload boundary decodes events only after that scope check. It validates control identities, terminal status, question sets, and the admitted runtime event types and bounded fields. It redacts diagnostic and retained event values again before they can enter provider state. Authoritative semantic tool arguments are validated for transport bounds and forwarded unchanged, including credential-bearing document and instruction content. The provider harness owns credential policy; redaction of logs and audit previews must not reject or rewrite execution arguments. Diagnostic detection requires explicit credential fields/assignments or recognizable key, Bearer, JWT, or PEM formats, not ordinary prose such as "credential handling" or dotted filenames.

Human question tools accept one complete payload.questionSet for text and choice questions. The control plane generates legacy questions entries with stable free-text option IDs. Legacy callers remain supported. Calls that supply both forms must describe the same complete form; partial forms remain invalid. The native recovery bridge uses the same projection for answer delivery.

The server validates canonical answer constraints before persistence. Regex matching runs in isolated workers with a one-second deadline and at most four active workers. A timeout or capacity error leaves the question pending. The ordinary and native answer paths both await this validation before persistence. Saved native answer delivery does not repeat regex matching.

Validated ACPX runtime events normalize into the same provider-neutral activity families as the direct Codex transport. Reasoning contents stay private. Tool targets are resolved within the workspace under the provider host's path semantics and receive a versioned sidecar boundary marker before becoming bounded, display-only PRP safe paths. Raw or unmarked provider locations fail closed. URI-scheme and Windows drive-shaped values require a separate sidecar attestation backed by an existing in-workspace entry or, for a not-yet-created edit target, an existing in-workspace parent. This preserves real POSIX colon filenames without treating arbitrary URI text as a path. Windows separators are canonicalized, and consumers must not reinterpret the display value as file-access authority. Operational semantic-result and terminal events remain reserved for the stateful adapter rather than being duplicated.

The ACPX provider reducer preserves that order while it tracks one active turn, bounded assistant text, semantic results, and pending tool or input correlations. Terminal events flush the final assistant message first and clear unresolved turn-scoped requests.

The package-local session bootstrap starts the bounded sidecar transport, verifies the qualified capability handshake and effective model, opens one identity-bound session, and confirms its run attachment. Any failed bootstrap terminates the process; session shutdown preserves persistent provider state. The session can then start one immutable-workspace turn, request interruption, and reduce polled events through the scope-first state boundary. A mismatched command acknowledgement or invalid event terminates the session fail closed. Polled semantic calls pass through the run-scoped authorized tool bridge before they can be returned to a caller. Before a follow-up turn releases settled tool receipts, runner-core suspends and reaps the idle sidecar/provider generation, then resumes the same verified persistent identity in a fresh generation. This prevents a late session-lifetime MCP callback from inheriting the next turn's event authority.

The Rust question-response validator checks the versioned response envelope against the exact persisted question IDs, answer modes, options, required answers, custom-answer policy, and text constraints before provider delivery. Tool results and structured question responses then use two-phase resolution: validate retained identity and schema, require the exact sidecar acknowledgement, and only then clear pending local state. Codex permission requests violate its pinned sidecar policy and terminate the session fail closed. Safe suspension is available only with no active turn or pending request. The sidecar must return the exact persistent session identity before runnerd terminates the local process. Already validated ACPX reducer events project into provider-neutral durable events only with an exact run, session, turn, and item binding. Raw sidecar envelopes and permission requests are not admitted at this boundary. A safely suspended session can be recorded as a bounded private checkpoint. The checkpoint binds the exact provider identity, run, catalog revision, and catalog digest and is replaced atomically before a later recovery attempt. Recovery releases the stored identity only after those bindings match the prospective session configuration exactly.

Run the complete contract gate with:

pnpm install --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner --lockfile=false --offline --ignore-scripts --dev
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner verify

The verification command requires a stable Rust toolchain with cargo on PATH, in addition to Node.js 24.11+ and pnpm 9+.

Minimal Debian/Ubuntu hosts without root access can extract the required Playwright browser libraries into a user-owned cache and run the same acceptance sequence with:

pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner verify:rootless

The tracer's final line is stable:

{
  "schemaVersion": "paperclip.runner.conformance.output.v1",
  "runIdentity": {
    "runId": "run_conformance_0001",
    "sessionId": "session_conformance_0001"
  },
  "result": {
    "status": "succeeded",
    "summary": "Standalone Conformance fixture accepted."
  }
}

Run only the tracer with:

pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner trace:conformance

Replay the Replay happy path, run a Local session, or open the browser devtool:

pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner replay:fixture
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner trace:local-runner -- --scenario happy-path
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner trace:codex
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner demo:live-console -- --host 127.0.0.1 --port 4174

# Live console: chat with a live session in the browser.
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner console:live-console
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner browser:dev --host 127.0.0.1 --port 4179

# SDK: open the public-SDK reference console and mini consumer.
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner console:sdk

# Standalone: run the standalone legacy/native/kill-switch tracer and page.
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner trace:standalone
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner trace:standalone -- --feature-flag enabled
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner trace:standalone -- --feature-flag enabled --kill-switch enabled
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner demo:standalone

Live console provider-backed routes are loopback-only and reject wildcard/LAN binds. Browser mutations require same-origin Fetch Metadata, matching Origin, and JSON content; see the protocol-server tutorial for direct curl examples.

Direct live protocol qualification

The canonical direct live protocol suite lives in the separate paperclip-evals repository under evals/paperclip-runner/. Its live-mini.json roster is the complete 35-case Codex qualification lane. Build this package's TypeScript output, release paperclip-runnerd, package tarball, and dist-issue-thread viewer, then use the roster runner documented in that repository. The package ships the required orchestration entry point as paperclip-runner-eval-session (dist/cli/eval-session.js). Evalbook owns the consistent HTML matrix and read-only attempt drill-down pages.

The hosted full-campaign workflow, parallel matrix, credential boundaries, canonical report merge, and versioned S3 index are documented in docs/runner-protocol-live-evals.md.

This direct protocol qualification is separate from the stress-derived Runner workflow schedule below and from the full-stack browser model E2E suite.

Stress-derived workflow, chaos, and AWS AgentCore operations

The deterministic workflow scorer and the chaos schedule do not require provider credentials:

pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner test:runner-workflow-evals
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner report:runner-chaos-evals

report:runner-live-evals is a paid, provider-backed command. Native Codex requires OPENAI_API_KEY; ACPX Claude requires ANTHROPIC_API_KEY; OpenCode candidates require OPENROUTER_API_KEY. The live matrix remains qualified-only and does not persist credential values. Candidate qualification uses eval-session --candidate-profile <pi|cursor|copilot> with an explicit model and a separately materialized pinned candidate pack. This option is a constructor-bound diagnostic opt-in; session JSON cannot enable a candidate. Missing credentials or unverifiable spend block paid qualification. Set PAPERCLIP_EVAL_MAX_CAMPAIGN_COST_USD to a positive finite number to bound additional scheduling after the observed campaign total reaches that value:

PAPERCLIP_EVAL_MAX_CAMPAIGN_COST_USD=12 \
  PAPERCLIP_EVALS_ROOT=/path/to/paperclip-evals \
  pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner report:runner-live-evals

# Run two scheduled native Codex executions only.
PAPERCLIP_EVALS_ROOT=/path/to/paperclip-evals \
  pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner report:runner-live-evals -- \
  --candidate codex-luna --limit 2

GitHub-hosted live campaigns additionally require the default branch, an allowlisted numeric actor ID, the protected runner-e2e-paid environment, and an explicit repository variable before scheduled runs are enabled. Manual dispatches accept the same candidate, case, and execution-limit selectors. The paid job uses the reviewed RunsOn Fleet label when RUNNER_E2E_AWS_ENABLED=true and otherwise stays on ubuntu-latest. Uploaded reports contain redacted observations and trace digests, not raw provider frames, prompts, credentials, tool arguments, or hidden reasoning.

The AgentCore proof-of-concept uses an AWS CLI v2 profile to provision a dedicated invocation role and scoped resources. Its local mode-0600 metadata file contains no access keys; probes assume short-lived STS credentials and clear them after use. Validate locally, provision or inspect the stack, run the bounded lab/smoke, and tear it down explicitly with:

pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner test:aws-agentcore-provisioning
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner aws-agentcore:provision -- --dry-run
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner aws-agentcore:provision
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner aws-agentcore:probe
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner aws-agentcore:lab
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner smoke:capability:aws-agentcore
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner aws-agentcore:destroy -- --yes

To admit the hosted direct-eval workflow, provision with the account-local GitHub Actions OIDC provider and keep the default exact repository and protected environment binding:

pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner aws-agentcore:provision -- \
  --aws-profile paperclip-dev \
  --github-oidc-provider-arn arn:aws:iam::<account-id>:oidc-provider/token.actions.githubusercontent.com

This adds only repo:paperclipai/paperclip:environment:runner-e2e-paid as a web-identity subject on the scoped invocation role. The generated nonsecret profile records that role as both the local invocation role and the hosted execution role.

Provisioning can incur Bedrock, AgentCore Runtime/Memory, storage, and private networking charges. Provisioning refuses to modify a colliding stack unless its Paperclip ownership tags and template description match. A verified ROLLBACK_COMPLETE stack still requires --replace-failed-stack plus an interactive confirmation (or --yes) before it can be deleted and recreated. Destruction requires --yes and refuses to remove a stack with an active recorded lab unless --force is also supplied.

Codex adds the package-local real-model reference driver, Live console adds the package-local browser console, and SDK extracts a reusable public SDK plus two standalone consumers. Runtime production Paperclip integration remains deferred; the App-owned production conformance adapter is test-only.

The SDK reference console opens in direct chat mode. Enter a normal prompt, then open the protocol inspector to review events and reducer state. Expand a Terminal row and its nested Debug details disclosure to inspect every canonical event retained for that command. The header marker 🖇️ v0.1.2 identifies the current console iteration.

create_task accepts an optional initial status of backlog or todo. Use backlog when the user wants a saved task or plan without execution: assignment and the initial plan are committed without scheduling a wake, even when dependencies are already complete. Omitting status preserves immediate delegation (todo, or blocked for unresolved dependencies).
