## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work. > - The feature map describes product capabilities and user journeys. > - Small fixes and test changes have added long notes to that map. > - These notes make substantial features harder to find. > - This pull request removes those additions from the last week's changes and sets a clear rule for future additions. > - The benefit is a smaller map with stable capability IDs and accurate entry points. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description **Issue type** Unclear or confusing documentation. **Where is the issue?** `maps/feature-map/`, the map maintenance instructions, and repository rules. **What's wrong?** Between October 27 and November 3, 2026, 115 commits changed the feature map. Many additions describe bug fixes, performance details, small UI changes, or new tests. They do not introduce substantial product features. The old synchronization instructions also encouraged a map edit for every behavior change. **Suggested fix** Add a rule that requires a substantial new feature before expanding the map. Remove minor-update notes. Keep genuine feature additions and minimal corrections to existing instructions. The review covers master through `b22ef22d56`; it does not revert application code. Conflict resolution preserves later map changes from master outside that audit snapshot. Searched open GitHub PRs and issues for related feature-map work. No duplicate cleanup was found. Substantial feature additions retained here include Coordinator (#17983), the agent YAML editor (#18036), document image galleries (#18157), remote workspace storage (#18403), native Kimi (#18391), proactive chat messages (#18374), and the Sentry receiver added in #18714. ## What Changed - Add `rules/feature-map-scope.mdc` and register its `maps/**` scope with Greptile. - Align `AGENTS.md` and the shared map contract with that rule. Routine fixes and test changes no longer require incidental map edits. - Remove 755 net lines from 23 feature recipes. Preserve all 35 areas and 192 capability IDs. - Keep substantial features and the corrections needed for current navigation, provider availability, and access boundaries. Examples from the reviewed changes: | Removed or shortened addition | Why it does not need a feature-map expansion | | --- | --- | | Rounded composer image thumbnails (#18689) | Small UI change within existing task creation. | | Connection profile reads and review-count queries (#18687, #18688) | Performance details within existing app permissions. | | Warm-session, Retry, export-capacity, and tool-wait cases | Regression details for existing execution and recovery. | | New task-search, project-context, document-persistence, and routine test journeys | Test additions for existing capabilities. The tests remain in place. | | New task button placement (#18703) | Another entry to an existing task form. | | Local browser verification notes | Run evidence belongs in the PR or test report. | ## Verification - `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` passes: 35 areas, 192 capability IDs, valid references and contract fields. - `node scripts/storybook-catalog.mjs` passes: 328 files and 3,068 stories. Generated indexes remain ignored. - Compared capability keys and navigation metadata in every edited recipe with the original source. All are unchanged. - Checked rule frontmatter, Greptile registration, representative scope matches, and `git diff --check`. - `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass on `9a60eef8eb8da9bc7c3a02203c79bec12e8c8b6b`. The final `a0801e8a939494ecde3739097a80258917428e94` commit only corrects two lines in the plugin-panel recipe; map and catalog checks pass again. - Greptile reviewed the final `a0801e8a939494ecde3739097a80258917428e94` head at 5/5 with no findings. The earlier review found one inaccurate phrase about unavailable plugin panels. The hook confirms that readiness gates automatic opening, while declared panels remain selectable. The final documentation commit corrects that phrase and the thread is resolved. Paperclip's refreshed review is advisory and remains queued. - The earlier CI run failed two assertions: [server 4/12](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41634761842/job/125914173960) counted three Anthropic identity calls instead of two in `connection-management.integration.test.ts`; [chat 1/3](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41634761842/job/125914174257) observed zero publications instead of one in the same-principal endpoint-settlement case. Both exact tests pass locally on the rebased head. This PR changes neither their source nor their expectations. These failed results remain historical evidence. - Final-head CI passed server 4/12 and all other suites except the first [chat 1/3 attempt](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41637834618/job/125925926131), which repeated the same zero-publication assertion. The browser gate passed. The single failed-job retry was accepted for this unchanged head in [workflow attempt 2](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41637834618/attempts/2). [Chat 1/3 passed on that retry](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41637834618/job/125933199635), and the aggregate verification gate passed. Both required gates, `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`, are green on `a0801e8a939494ecde3739097a80258917428e94`. The one retry allowance is consumed. - The first full local `pnpm test:run` attempt was interrupted before completion so master could be rebased without changing source under running tests. It is not a passing test result. Full current-head CI remains required. - No application code, tests, schemas, or lockfiles changed. ## Risks - Low runtime risk. This change only edits documentation and review guidance. - Detailed regression instructions become less visible in the feature map. Their tests and technical documentation remain available. - Some additions mix a new feature with a small fix. Those blocks retain the feature and shorten the incidental detail. ## Model Used - OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, Git history inspection, repository tools, and code execution. The session does not expose a more specific model deployment ID or context-window size. ## 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 — map, catalog, capability-ID, and rule-scope checks; full Vitest limits are stated above - [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable — no new runtime tests apply to this documentation change - [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>

# Documents, attachments, and work products
|
||
|
||
People read and revise task documents, annotate specific content, open attached files, and inspect the outputs an agent hands back. The artifact library provides another route to the same work.
|
||
|
||
Feature ID: `documents-artifacts`.
|
||
|
||
Implementation: [task documents](../../ui/src/components/IssueDocumentsSection.tsx), [artifact library](../../ui/src/pages/Artifacts.tsx), [document panel](../../ui/src/components/task-side-panel/TaskDocumentPanel.tsx).
|
||
|
||
Agent access: [companion](../agent-access-map/documents-artifacts.md).
|
||
|
||
## Sub-features
|
||
|
||
- `documents`: `documents-artifacts/documents` — edit versioned task documents and inspect or restore revisions.
|
||
- `annotations`: `documents-artifacts/annotations` — attach feedback to document content and inspect resolution state.
|
||
- `attachments`: `documents-artifacts/attachments` — upload, preview, and download allowed files with company access checks.
|
||
- `work-products`: `documents-artifacts/work-products` — link deliverables to their source task, resource, and review context.
|
||
- `library`: `documents-artifacts/library` — search, filter, group, and open artifact stacks.
|
||
|
||
## How to get to it (user POV)
|
||
|
||
### `task-document`
|
||
|
||
Open a document from the task thread or document side panel.
|
||
|
||
To create or edit a general task document, open **Open a new tab → Artifacts**
|
||
in the task side panel, then **New document** or **Document actions → Edit
|
||
document**. Classic mode keeps the editor in the task body. Plans retain their
|
||
conversation and approval flow.
|
||
|
||
Select an inline image to open the document's image gallery. Use the left and
|
||
right arrow keys or the Previous and Next buttons to move through images in
|
||
reading order. The URL retains the document and adds a one-based `image` position,
|
||
such as `#document-report&image=2`. Share or reload that URL to open the same image.
|
||
Revision and maximized-view parameters remain in the link. Escape, Close, or the
|
||
backdrop closes the gallery and returns focus to the image.
|
||
|
||
Coordinator decision receipts also open a pinned reviewed revision alongside
|
||
the matching task interaction. Historical tabs retain their revision identity
|
||
independently of the current document tab. Missing revisions are explicit and
|
||
never silently replaced with the latest document.
|
||
When a decision in one task reviews another task's document, the center pane
|
||
keeps the originating conversation while the sidebar opens the document owner's
|
||
exact revision. An inaccessible owner never falls back to the origin task's document.
|
||
|
||
### `task-output`
|
||
|
||
Open an attachment, output card, or file link from a task.
|
||
For direct uploads, use the task side panel's **Open a new tab → Artifacts →
|
||
Upload files** or drop files anywhere in that panel. On mobile, open
|
||
**More actions → Properties** first. Agent conversations do not expose this upload path.
|
||
|
||
### `artifact-library`
|
||
|
||
Open `/artifacts` and its grouping, search, and media controls.
|
||
|
||
## Driving it with Playwright and the Paperclip CLI
|
||
|
||
Preconditions: follow the [baseline](./README.md#before-driving-a-journey). Use a task with a text document, a small attachment, and a generated work product. Use nonsensitive fixture files.
|
||
|
||
### `task-document`
|
||
|
||
Automated: [documents service](../../server/src/__tests__/documents-service.test.ts), [annotations](../../server/src/__tests__/document-annotations-service.test.ts), and [revision restore](../../server/src/__tests__/issue-document-restore-routes.test.ts) cover server contracts.
|
||
|
||
[Document image galleries](../../tests/e2e/document-image-gallery.spec.ts) checks
|
||
desktop, mobile, and Classic document views with real uploaded images and saved
|
||
document revisions. It covers keyboard/button navigation, image URLs and reload,
|
||
focus return, focus containment, scroll locking, dismissal, and revision links.
|
||
|
||
[Exact revision panel](../../ui/src/components/task-side-panel/TaskDocumentPanel.test.tsx)
|
||
checks pinned content and missing-revision behavior; this component test does not
|
||
prove end-to-end conversation scrolling. Open a resolved receipt after making a
|
||
new revision and verify the earlier body plus matching interaction in the browser.
|
||
|
||
Manual: Edit a paragraph, save, reload, and compare revisions. Add an annotation to a specific selection and inspect it after another edit. Resolve it through the supported action. Restore a disposable revision and confirm the new current document and history agree.
|
||
|
||
### `task-output`
|
||
|
||
Automated: [attachment routes](../../server/src/__tests__/issue-attachment-routes.test.ts) and [work products](../../server/src/__tests__/work-products.test.ts) cover data/access behavior; [artifact arrival browser suite](../../tests/e2e/artifact-tab-arrival.spec.ts) targets arrival. [Artifact uploads](../../tests/e2e/artifact-uploads.spec.ts) drives file selection/drop, filename collisions, retry, and preservation of paused/unassigned tasks.
|
||
|
||
Manual: Upload a small Markdown file and CSV through Artifacts. Markdown becomes
|
||
a versioned task document; other files become attachments. Read the document,
|
||
download the CSV and compare bytes, then reload. Upload the same Markdown filename
|
||
again and verify a separate suffixed document without overwriting the original.
|
||
On a paused unassigned task, confirm upload does not start work or add comments.
|
||
Verify agent-produced work products separately using an eligible test run.
|
||
Test an inaccessible user/company and explicit missing workspace-only resources.
|
||
|
||
### `artifact-library`
|
||
|
||
Automated: [artifact page](../../ui/src/pages/Artifacts.test.tsx) covers grouping, search requests, and pagination using mocks.
|
||
|
||
Manual: Find the task’s output through search and grouping, open its stack, page through results, and reload a direct stack link. Confirm the same file/content appears as from the task.
|
||
|
||
## Gotchas
|
||
|
||
- A local path is not automatically an uploaded artifact accessible to another user.
|
||
- A preview screenshot is not proof that download bytes or revision references are correct.
|
||
- Version conflicts and stale annotations must stay visible rather than silently targeting different content.
|
||
|
||
### Storybook verification
|
||
|
||
#### `documents`
|
||
|
||
Capability ID: `documents-artifacts/documents`.
|
||
|
||
Scope: ui
|
||
Storybook: Writable/read-only document, save pending/failure/conflict, revision history/historical preview and restore confirmation.
|
||
Production: Persist edited body and reload; append-only restore creates new revision; reject stale writes and inaccessible company/task.
|
||
Sources: Source: [IssueDocumentsSection.tsx](../../ui/src/components/IssueDocumentsSection.tsx), [TaskDocumentPanel.tsx](../../ui/src/components/task-side-panel/TaskDocumentPanel.tsx), [documents.ts](../../server/src/services/documents.ts). Tests: [IssueDocumentsSection.test.tsx](../../ui/src/components/IssueDocumentsSection.test.tsx), [document-revisions.test.ts](../../ui/src/lib/document-revisions.test.ts), [documents-service.test.ts](../../server/src/__tests__/documents-service.test.ts), [issue-document-restore-routes.test.ts](../../server/src/__tests__/issue-document-restore-routes.test.ts)
|
||
|
||
### Documentation scope: Artifacts and work products
|
||
|
||
Document/attachment/library/work-product journeys are mapped; every media preview type, storage backend, annotation conflict, and runtime-resource lifecycle variant remains separate.
