DottaandPaperclip 0884e73b46 test(e2e): verify saved assigned skill use (#18783)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people manage agent work and reusable company skills.
> - A saved assigned skill must affect a task's actual execution.
> - Existing QA coverage creates and edits skills.
> - The daily target needs coverage for ordinary saved-skill use.
> - The task receives its receipt data only through one saved skill.
> - The admitted immutable version, native read and saved document
establish the outcome.
> - This PR adds one bounded journey for that gap.
> - A shared lease test also needs a stable clock to assert its exact
timeout.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #18305.

Supporting repair #18885 merged as
`057898530c702ec14c1e14d163e96dfb045cd8c0`. It closes the
recovery-conflict prerequisite. This branch does not duplicate that
production patch.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Product E2E coverage for ordinary assigned company skill use on an
existing deployment target.

**Current behavior**

The deployment journey catalog can create and edit a company skill. It
has no separate case that requires a native task to load its assigned
saved skill and use data available only inside that source.

**Proposed behavior**

Create one synthetic managed company skill through the public API.
Assign its canonical key with the normal Latest selection. Create the
task through the production browser composer. Require one native work
run, the exact created immutable version in its admitted skill-version
map, a successful native source read or load, and an agent-authored
saved receipt. Reload and verify the result, revision and original
source.

## What Changed

- Add `saved-skill-use` with one native work run and seven required
checks. The first check is `saved-skill-assignment-bound`.
- Use ordinary `desiredSkills: [canonicalKey]` assignment. Require the
returned stored assignment to have `versionId: null`. This works with
Beta skills off and reads or changes no experimental setting.
- Bind the creation receipt, pre-dispatch source read and version file
inventory. Require a managed skill with the exact company key. Require
the run's authoritative `skillSelectionSnapshot: true` and admitted
version map to match the created immutable version.
- Keep the random receipt reference and numeric inputs only in the saved
source. The task prompt names the skill without supplying its answer.
- Require exact company, task, agent, run, turn and runner bindings for
a complete successful native source receipt. Accept the deployed
OpenCode read wrapper only when both the saved assignment and native
execution input bind its runtime directory to the created immutable
skill version. Also accept the first-party assigned-skill read with a
provider-independent canonical key/version binding from both the saved
API assignment and admitted native input. Require the exact full source,
checksum, byte count and complete page. Keep the materialized
directory-name guard specific to the OpenCode filesystem path. Reject
claims, shell output, foreign or incomplete reads and wrong skill loads.
- Add a narrow Codex reader for the retained controller
`semantic_tool.input` and `semantic_tool.result` pair. Require the
actual native provider, runner, session, call, turn and item; the
admitted immutable key/version; the read-only `read_assigned_skill`
operation; and its successful active-task receipt. Recompute the input
digest and the exact complete seven-field read-result digest from the
saved source. Raw dynamic or MCP names grant no authority. Keep the
builtin OpenCode/filesystem reader body unchanged.
- Require authoritative native commit before qualifying the saved
receipt. Independently check its value and same-run document revision
authorship. Reload and verify the result and unchanged source. Retain
those existing readback receipts in the private checkpoint for
independent verification.
- Keep the exact raw campaign ID in the journal, API name, frontmatter
and saved name. A lost successful creation response remains recoverable
by name.
- Register discovery, source fingerprints, closed checks and existing
feature associations. Update the case and fixture docs. Feature-map
files are unchanged.

- Stabilize one existing shared sandbox lease regression with a scoped
`Date.now` spy and `finally` restoration. Keep its exact timeout,
no-destroy, no-replacement and recorded lease assertions. Change no
production service code.

## Verification

- **Genuine QA staging qualification passed on this exact
`2fb654f7be0bac3bfeb4ec6b7a2eb7a06b8de7e4` head**:
[workflow41763421118](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip-cloud/actions/runs/41763421118),
[TestOps
launch2257/result4034](https://paperclip.testops.cloud/launch/2257/tree/4034?treeId=0),
[sanitized
report](https://pages.paperclip.ing/evals-qa-smoke-41763421118-1/). All
seven required checks and all five phases passed, with exactly one
configured OpenCode/DeepSeek native run succeeded and committed. Owned
cleanup closed. A separate source-pinned replay verified25
original-evidence controls and16 rejection controls without altering
originals. Automatic #testops PASS was independently read back. Both
earlier failed QA grades remain unchanged.

- Current-head CI `41758727042` attempt 2 passed with 48 successful jobs
and one skip. The coordinator authorized one unchanged-source
failed-jobs diagnostic. Start and end timestamps prove three fresh
executions (Runner package, server shard 7 and aggregate verification),
45 retained successful executions and one skipped non-execution. The
prepared-context test passed in 2,534 ms. All 28 repository rehome tests
passed. The original failed attempt remains sealed. Its timeout causes
are still unknown. No source, timeout or assertion changed, and no
reliability fix is claimed.
- Fresh exact-head Greptile review is 5/5 with zero unresolved threads.
All 58 current check-runs and the status rollup are terminal and clean.
The native Paperclip review ended neutral and incomplete, so it is not a
validated assessment. The PR remains mergeable after the dependency case
merged in #18901. The source remains frozen. A coordinator-only
qualification draft is prepared with approval false. A genuine QA
staging pass is still required before daily enrollment.
- Current head `2fb654f7be0bac3bfeb4ec6b7a2eb7a06b8de7e4`: 269 focused
tests across eight files passed. These include 42 Codex producer,
converter and false-positive controls. The canonical E2E typecheck
passed with its own declaration prerequisites. Credential-free discovery
lists 24 journeys. Fresh exact-head Greptile review passed at 5/5 with
zero unresolved threads. CI `41758727042` attempt 1 failed. It completed
45 successful jobs, one skip and three failed jobs. The primary failures
were one existing OpenCode prepared-context test at its unchanged
5-second timeout and three existing repository rehome tests at their
unchanged 15-second timeouts. The third failed job aggregates those
results. The timeout causes are unknown. The original attempt remains
sealed. A direct passing twin ran the prepared-context test in 2,533 ms.
All package, script, CLI, UI, workflow and root inputs match between the
actual tested merges. Three server files differ, including
`task-retry.ts` inside the broader rehome import graph; no full-server
equality or causal fix is claimed. The later single diagnostic pass is
recorded above. The native Paperclip review ended neutral with an
incomplete execution, so it is not a validated assessment. No live QA
pass is claimed.
- The valid review on `e1a474` found that Codex displays its first-party
tool as dynamic. Source inspection confirmed that its raw name has no
authority. The retained controller semantic input/result pair supplies
the real operation authority. Core
`09162fe893b464dd2ccdafd14bd3ef1611202a86` and current source have
identical relevant envelope, digest, result-unwrapping and
immutable-read implementation regions.
- Three real-producer positive controls failed against the old grader.
All 42 now pass. The tests call the actual immutable-file reader,
production protocol digest builders, Codex display converter and API
redaction. They validate the event schema and cover omitted defaults,
the exact runtime alias and Unicode bytes. Missing, duplicate,
reordered, failed, foreign, MCP, unbound, partial-page, wrong-digest,
wrong-key/version and nonce-only evidence fails. Generic dynamic output
fails even with copied full text and invented read-only markers.
- The original builtin reader body and source-only fixture function are
byte-identical to `e1a474`. All seven checks, the one-run limit,
500-cent guard, ordinary Latest assignment and Beta-off behavior remain
unchanged. The independent verifier is pinned to this new head. Its
synthetic semantic receipt passes 24 negative controls and its
filesystem receipt passes 16. Older helpers and both original failed QA
seals remain unchanged.
- Earlier integrated head `e1a47438b1c7e51a5bb2896a4ec9b6ed6560318b`:
376 focused checks across eleven files passed, including Saved, settings
and Chat overlap controls. All seven canonical server type layers and
exact-head E2E types passed. All four lease controls passed.
Credential-free discovery lists 24 catalog journeys. No new staging run
has occurred.
- Normal integrations consume actual master
`fbb7055b9020e505cd1bf903b1b1c301ba8f3eef` and actual Chat squash
`d7283e875772ca8c684dc86e471e6b48d543b7b1`. Preserve all five Saved
case/parser files byte-for-byte and retain settings and Chat
registrations. The only manual resolutions were two additive
handler/type anchors. All seven checks, one-run limit and 500-cent guard
remain unchanged. The independent verifier is pinned to this exact head.
- Earlier dbdf CI passed after one authorized failed-jobs recheck of a
confirmed Spot-terminated Build runner. Timestamp comparison proves two
fresh executions (Build and verify), 46 retained successful executions
and one skip. The original failed attempt remains sealed. Its native
Paperclip Review completed neutral with an incomplete execution and is
not a validated assessment.
- New master entries made the earlier dbdf PR conflict. The frozen
qualification guard correctly blocked dispatch before any pin or
receipt. Preserve its unapproved draft as history; it did not authorize
a QA run. This normal integration resolves the observed conflict. Fresh
current-head CI/review and one genuine staging pass remain required.
- Earlier merged head `dbdf1f3cbeaacc7cf9a2a457618035c945bd09f0`: 227
focused checks passed across seven files. All seven canonical server
type layers passed. The E2E typecheck passed using the declarations
built in this same checkout on this exact head. All four existing clock
and lease controls passed. Credential-free discovery lists 22 catalog
journeys, including both saved-skill use and task lifecycle. These are
local checks, not a live staging qualification.
- Normal merge of master `8771606fd87f69ed4057779e3dce3a9bca8088e6`
retains the reviewed task-lifecycle case and its Cursor fixture repair
from #18782. Resolve six shared journey registrations by preserving both
cases. The five saved-skill case files remain byte-for-byte equal to
reviewed `ff3814`. All seven required checks, one-run limit, 500-cent
bound and ordinary Beta-off Latest assignment remain unchanged. No
feature-map delta was added.
- The independent sealed-run verifier is now pinned to this exact merged
head. Synthetic semantic evidence passed with 24 negative controls.
Synthetic filesystem evidence passed with 16 negative controls. Foreign
document authorship and missing reopen/source readback still fail. The
old `ff3814` verifier and both original failed QA seals remain
unchanged.
- Common generated outputs were copied only after all 4,225 package,
script and root inputs matched, installed lock/TypeScript hashes
matched, and all 4,955 source output paths and hashes passed before and
after copy. No server declarations or editable source/module links were
copied. The server declarations were rebuilt locally. A full frozen
workspace install disabled lifecycle scripts and used the same locked
packages. No Rust build ran locally.
- Previous `ff3814` CI `41733864320` exposed a real wrapped PostgreSQL
uniqueness error in a recovery server test. That production defect is
independently fixed and tested in #18885. The later supporting PR merged
separately. This branch does not duplicate its production patch or
regrade the original failure. Preserve the original failed result and
the separate Spot interruption. New full CI and a fresh exact-head 5/5
review remain required.
- Previously, **225 tests passed across six files** in the focused
evidence, flow, contract, catalog and report set after the semantic-read
correction. The prior 181-test proof and all original failed attempts
remain retained. This correction changes only the saved-skill evidence
helper, flow argument, their tests and case documentation. The shared
clock repair remains unchanged.
- E2E TypeScript check passed on Node **24.22.2**.
- Earlier credential-free discovery listed 21 cases and exposes the
ordinary saved-skill journey without a Beta prerequisite. These local
checks make no provider or model calls.
- Source inspection of Core `09162fe893b464dd2ccdafd14bd3ef1611202a86`
confirms key-only selection becomes a stored null Latest selection.
Managed execution resolves its current immutable version and records the
admitted map in `contextSnapshot`. The public run API preserves that map
independently of optional result presentation data.
- Seven invalid admitted-version fixtures wrongly qualified without the
new guard. The regressions now reject them before the read or document
can qualify. Beta-off and Beta-on ordinary request controls use the
production sync validator. Wrong assignments, missing null selection,
source drift, creation-version mismatch and another skill's complete
native output cannot pass.
- Existing native commit, null/compact result data, read provenance,
nonce, saved-result, reload and lost-creation-response controls remain
required. Their original red results are retained.
- The earlier experimental version-pin variant remains unqualified. Its
missing-prerequisite regression and the denied target-setting attempt
remain separate failure evidence. This case qualifies ordinary
assignment and the version actually admitted by the server.
- Normal merge of master `5f1b59ba2c9adfb40a681bf419a8b7e7837d1125`
includes the reviewed inbox snapshot fix #18798 and App/Shell
access-fixture fix #18799. The merge has no conflicts. All 17 journey
source, helper, registration and documentation files remain
byte-identical to reviewed head
`eab260955ff43eeacfdafc9b75dfc9b116f0eb79`.
- Previous CI `41672686614` failed two UI test shards with obsolete
user-ID fixtures; its aggregate verify job also failed. The merged
access-fixture repair addresses those failures. This is a new source CI
run; the failed run is retained.
- Dependency output reuse follows exact path and byte checks for 10,977
tracked build inputs and 3,411 generated outputs. The first copy guard
detected 12 bundles regenerated after its initial manifest and stopped
before any destination mutation. The stable replacement manifest passed
all checks before copying. Final focused tests, E2E typecheck and
discovery passed after the verified copy. No editable source or module
link was shared.
- An earlier integration found stale generated Cursor Cloud
declarations. Canonical dependency builds refreshed them, then typecheck
passed. The original typecheck failure remains recorded.
- The initial report support failure came from a blocked `tsx` IPC pipe
before report execution. The unchanged test passed with normal local IPC
permission. The original failure and diagnostic remain recorded.
- `git diff --check` passes. Full workspace recursive typecheck, unit
run and build remain assigned to hosted CI and coordinator verification.
Full CI `41679720041` passed on the prior
`f3f288a54177f2b9a7b225b1d1ab35440dfc597c` source. A clean 5/5 review
passed on `0f445cf1c622afb25a1af92398784209df542696`. Fresh CI and
review are required after the shared clock fixture repair.
- The first real QA staging attempt on
`f3f288a54177f2b9a7b225b1d1ab35440dfc597c` failed
`saved-skill-native-read-attributed`. Assignment, immutable admitted
version and cleanup passed. The test stopped before document, reload and
source-after observations. The original failed attempt and its complete
evidence remain sealed.
- The original successful builtin `read` event contained the full saved
procedure. OpenCode returned its file wrapper with an unknown normalized
operation, null target and a hashed runtime skill name. The old parser
rejected that shape. A synthetic regression failed before this
correction. The corrected parser recognizes that exact retained read in
memory, with no change to the original grade. Wrong paths, copied shell
text, missing starts, mismatched calls, failed/truncated reads and wrong
version/name bindings still fail. A later staging attempt is described
below. Neither failed original was regraded.
- Original CI `41703535552` failed one shared server test and its
dependent verification job. The lease-resume test expected an RPC
timeout of 31,234 ms, but the runtime correctly supplied 31,233 ms after
one elapsed millisecond. The test and runtime service were
byte-identical to the previous passing source. The failed run remains
recorded.
- A scoped advancing clock reproduced that exact 31,233-versus-31,234
failure locally. A stable clock around only the acquisition call now
preserves the exact original assertion. The repaired test and three
related sandbox lifecycle controls pass on disposable embedded Postgres.
No production timeout, lease preservation, cleanup or replacement
behavior changed.
- The first local reproduction stopped before test execution because six
same-package native Postgres library aliases were missing. Their exact
existing versioned libraries matched the canonical dependency. Restoring
only those internal relative aliases allowed the separate deterministic
red and green measurements. This prerequisite failure remains recorded.
- The second real staging attempt on
`02582aadd23fc128ae29daa69482113cf0f95ad1` also failed
`saved-skill-native-read-attributed`. Authentication, setup, assignment,
source-only input, collection and cleanup passed. It completed one
native run. Later document, reload and source-after checks were not
executed. The complete original remains sealed as failed.
- That attempt used the ordinary first-party
`paperclip_read_assigned_skill` tool. Its complete native receipt
contained the exact canonical skill key, created version, `SKILL.md`
bytes, SHA-256, byte count and null next-page offset. Core verifies the
pinned manifest and file checksum before returning that receipt. The old
grader recognized only filesystem and native skill-load output. An
actual-shape regression failed before this correction. The corrected
parser recognizes the retained read in memory. Wrong keys, versions,
source bytes, hashes, partial pages, semantic failures, copied shell
output and foreign or unpaired native calls still fail. No model prompt,
product source or original grade changed. A live pass on this corrected
source remains required.
- CI `41708636059` on the previous `02582` source passed at attempt 3.
The first two interrupted attempts remain recorded. AWS evidence
identified Spot capacity termination for the second Rust runner. The
targeted retry executed Rust and aggregate verification; 46 successful
jobs retained their exact prior execution timestamps and one job
remained skipped. New metadata IDs do not establish new executions.
Fresh full CI and review remain required for this source.
- Earlier CI `41730743279` passed on
`1ee86838ea528edd8c60fb9ddd858faf3c83e783`. A later review finding
correctly showed that the semantic read still depended on an
OpenCode-only directory-name helper. That finding remains recorded.
Three local Codex, ACPX Cursor and Cursor Cloud flow controls reproduced
the rejection before this correction.
- The semantic path now binds the canonical key and immutable version
through the common native runtime skill selection contract. Its
checksum, complete source, page and native call attribution checks stay
unchanged. Missing, duplicate, wrong-key and foreign-version API/native
assignment controls still fail for all three provider configurations.
The OpenCode filesystem wrapper still requires its exact provider and
materialized directory name. These local controls test the existing
canonical receipt shape; they do not claim live provider qualification
or add a guessed provider encoding. Fresh CI and review are required
after this correction.
- This public PR does not enroll the case in the daily plan or change
protected QA configuration.

## Risks

The target must supply a disposable native agent with normal company
skill-write access and cleanup. It must preserve the authoritative
admitted version map and provide a complete source read or named native
skill-load receipt. Missing evidence fails the case even when the
receipt document has the right value. The OpenCode wrapper path requires
matching assignment and native input records for the same immutable
version; it does not accept a generic targetless read. The builtin
first-party path requires the same version binding and exact full-source
receipt. Codex must provide its authoritative controller pair and a
digest that commits to that exact complete result. Partial pages,
unknown operations and semantic failures do not qualify.

Local flow controls simulate the target API and browser boundaries. They
do not establish live Cloud qualification. Experimental assignment pins
need separate qualification. The journey changes only its owned skill,
assignment and task. It changes no shared agent, setting, model,
connection or budget.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex with reasoning and code execution. The
runtime does not expose a more specific model identifier or
context-window size. Local checks made no product-model calls.
