## Thinking Path > - Paperclip manages work for AI agents. > - Planning guidance helps agents choose owners and dependencies. > - The runtime skill favors few tasks, but the catalog skill requires a child-task breakdown. > - Both add repeated process instructions that can distract from the requested outcome. > - This change keeps the ownership and dependency rules and removes the required matrix and repeated checklist. > - A bounded Product E2E comparison measures saved outcomes and task handoffs before qualification. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Refs #11057. Related measurement work: #15218. **What existing behavior does this improve?** Planning and delegation through the runtime plan-to-tasks and bundled task-planning skills. **Current behavior** The two skills contain about 1,900 words and conflicting guidance on whether plans require child tasks. **Proposed behavior** Keep cohesive work with one owner. Split only for a real owner, parallel output, dependency, independent review, or follow-up lifecycle. Preserve existing authorization and planning mechanics. ## What Changed - Shorten both skills to about 400 words combined. Preserve their keys and installed-version behavior. - Remove the duplicate operational-skill pointer and regenerate affected source metadata. - Add twelve explicit Product E2E cells: four scenarios with current, short and disabled planning skills. - Use the current task composer and actual create-response ID; calibrate public skill APIs and browser creation without providers. - Eliminate an observed collision in chat-test company prefixes with a per-suite sequence. - Grade saved documents, exact author/run attribution, child count, prerequisite execution order, review boundaries and completion handoffs. - Retain current skill bytes and report source, selections, run accounting and failures. ## Verification - `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`: pass. - `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`: 1,287 Vitest tests and 128 Node checks pass. - `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --list --suite plan-task-guidance`: twelve local Codex cells. - Archived current skills match master `72ff3a9f27e581a27acb49771e8658bbb0bbaa47` exactly. - Corrected fixture: three real public-API/database calibrations pass with zero provider runs; all 35 evaluator checks and Product E2E typecheck pass. - Setup campaign [37399550253](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37399550253) was canceled after source review found unsupported bundled edits and automatic core reinstallation. Its paid-cell step was skipped: zero provider runs, no behavioral grade. - The next setup [37401094799](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37401094799) failed before task creation on the old title-field selector: zero actual runs, original FAIL retained, cleanup passed. A real browser/API calibration of the new helper passes with paused non-provider agents and zero runs. - Full local typecheck/build pass. Full local tests retain one unchanged five-minute Git streaming timeout (also fails isolated), 9,591 passes and 5,796 skips. CI's chat failure was a proven random fixture-prefix collision; five affected cases pass after the test-only repair. - Paid behavior comparison and new-head CI/review remain pending. This PR remains a draft. ## Risks - The shorter text may change delegation decisions. Live outcomes are not yet qualified. - The initial comparison uses one profile and one attempt per cell. It cannot establish cross-model reliability or cost trends. - Disabled means unassigned company-owned copies; the company library remains discoverable. This does not qualify global removal, automatic accepted-plan wiring changes, or installed-copy migration. - Skill availability does not prove a model read or cognitively used it. - No provider/tool protocol, permission, timeout or runtime lifecycle behavior changes in production. ## Model Used OpenAI Codex (GPT-6), with repository inspection, code editing and tool use. The exact backend model ID and context-window size are not exposed in this session. The declared eval model is native Codex `gpt-5.6-sol`. ## 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 - [ ] 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 - [ ] All Paperclip CI gates are green - [ ] 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>
