DottaandPaperclip 51c81d0129 feat(sentry): link run errors to task and run pages (#16803)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Operators use Sentry to inspect run and server failures.
> - Reports identify the run and task, but the existing links open API
records.
> - Operators need a direct path from an error to the normal task and
run pages.
> - This change adds navigation links through the shared server Sentry
hook.
> - Saved company and task records determine the links. A failed lookup
preserves the error report.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Related work: #16300 added saved run API references.

**What existing behavior does this improve?**

Sentry event context for run failures, Stop timeouts, and server errors
from an authenticated agent run.

**Current behavior**

Reports show task and run UUIDs. The existing run URL opens an API
record. The operator must find the normal task page separately.

**Proposed behavior**

Add `task_url`, `run_url`, and `task_identifier` tags when saved run
metadata is available. Add `taskUrl` and `runPageUrl` to the event
context. Use the company prefix and saved task identifier in normal
board URLs.

**Reason and benefit**

An operator can open the task or run directly from the error report.

## What Changed

- Add a shared Sentry hook for events with a known run identity.
- Read only the saved company prefix, task identifier, and run identity.
Keep the lookup within the recorded company and agent.
- Include authenticated run identity on request errors. Use the existing
run identity on Stop errors.
- Bound optional lookups to one second and eight unfinished reads.
Preserve the original event on failure.
- Keep the existing API references and error grouping.
- Document the fields and add SDK, timeout, and company-boundary
coverage.

## Verification

- Passed: `pnpm -r typecheck` and the final server TypeScript check.
- Passed: `pnpm build`.
- Passed: 332 tests across the affected server suites, plus 25 final
link and real Sentry SDK tests after review fixes. The SDK test checks
outgoing event envelopes for run failures, request errors, and Stop
errors. It checks that unrelated errors receive no links. The database
test verifies saved metadata and company boundaries. It passes with
embedded PostgreSQL and with an explicitly configured disposable test
database.
- Passed in CI on `bec0cdac853efdef71041d59a66261941827653e`: the full
test matrix, typecheck, build, Runner checks, browser suites, and the
real Sentry SDK contract. All 56 active checks pass. Two Storybook jobs
are skipped.
- The full local `pnpm test:run` attempt first failed because PostgreSQL
library links were missing. The package setup script repaired the
install. The affected database suites then passed. The repaired full
local run was stopped after all CI test jobs passed; it did not complete
locally.
- Greptile: 5/5 on the final commit. All three review threads are
resolved.
- Read-only browser inspection confirms that Sentry displays context URL
values with an Open link control.
- No live test event was posted. Validation uses the real SDK with an
in-memory transport.

## Risks

- A slow or unavailable database can prevent optional links. It does not
discard the error. At most eight unfinished lookups can remain active.
- Missing or unsafe public origins omit the links. URLs longer than the
tag limit remain in context.
- This change applies to newly captured events. It does not update
existing Sentry events.
- The change adds no schema, permission, or first-party Telemetry
contract change.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, `gpt-6.1-sol`, xhigh reasoning, with tool use and code
execution. The exact context window is not exposed in the session
metadata.

## Checklist

links (only public GitHub `#NNN` / `github.com/paperclipai/paperclip`
URLs)

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

// Optional Sentry error monitoring for the server process.
//
// Activated only when the backend DSN resolves to a value — see
// `resolveSentryDsns` in `sentry-dsn.ts` for the precedence between
// `SENTRY_DSN_BACKEND` and the legacy `SENTRY_DSN` fallback. When it
// resolves to `null`, no Sentry package is loaded at all.
//
// The import is dynamic and the package is an optional runtime dependency —
// operators who want server-side error monitoring install `@sentry/node`
// themselves. That keeps Sentry off the default dependency graph and avoids
// forcing a lockfile bump for an opt-in feature. This gate mirrors the
// OpenTelemetry gate in `instrumentation.ts`.
//
// OpenTelemetry keeps ownership of trace setup: the initializer passes
// `skipOpenTelemetrySetup: true` and `tracesSampleRate: 0`, so this module
// adds error monitoring only and starts no span or trace behavior of its
// own.
//
// `serverName`: the initializer sets this to the host name of the process,
// with `os.hostname()`. The `@sentry/node` client already falls back to the
// same host name when the caller omits this option, so this line makes an
// existing default explicit instead of changing captured event content. An
// explicit value stays correct if a future SDK version changes its default.
//
// An operator can still send a different value in place of the host name.
// When the environment variable `SENTRY_NAME` holds a non-empty string, the
// initializer uses that value instead. This keeps the same order the
// `@sentry/node` client itself uses when the caller omits `serverName`.
//
// Default-integration privacy note: `sendDefaultPii: false` filters values
// by name, inside the `RequestData` integration only. Three other default
// integrations copy raw values past that filter, so the initializer removes
// or narrows them with built-in Sentry options — no custom filter code:
// - `Console` turns a `console.*` call into a breadcrumb with the raw
// arguments. The initializer drops it.
// - `ContextLines` reads local source lines around each stack frame off
// the host disk. The initializer drops it.
// - `Http` records a breadcrumb for each outbound request, with its URL
// and query string. The initializer keeps the integration (`RequestData`
// and request isolation need it) and turns the breadcrumb off with the
// integration's own `breadcrumbs` option.
//
// `onUnhandledRejectionIntegration` defaults to `mode: "warn"`, which
// registers a `process.on("unhandledRejection")` listener. Node cancels its
// own crash-on-unhandled-rejection behavior when any listener is registered.
// The server relies on that crash today, so the initializer passes
// `mode: "strict"`: Sentry still captures the event, then exits the process,
// so the existing crash-and-restart behavior stays.
//
// Before it imports the package, the bootstrap checks the installed
// `@sentry/node` version against the exact version this manifest's
// `peerDependencies` declares — the same audited version documented in
// `doc/observability.md`. A missing or a mismatched version logs one
// diagnostic and leaves the server running without error monitoring; it
// never throws. This gate mirrors the OpenTelemetry gate in
// `instrumentation.ts`.
