Nicky LeachandPaperclip 3522b1c9be Emit interaction resolved telemetry (#8824)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Issue-thread interactions are how agents ask users or the board for
decisions and structured input
> - Product telemetry needs to understand when those interactions
resolve without exposing private interaction content
> - Resolution currently happens through several service paths, so
telemetry needs to be emitted consistently from the terminal transitions
> - The interaction service should describe the resolved interaction,
while the telemetry backend owns unknown-value normalization for
dimensions
> - This pull request emits `interaction.resolved` after successful
database writes and removes redundant client-side normalization from the
service
> - The benefit is aggregate-safe telemetry for interaction completion
behavior without leaking raw IDs, answer text, rejection reasons, or
document content

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

No public GitHub issue exists for this internal telemetry follow-up.

Feature context:

- Problem/motivation: Paperclip needs aggregate product telemetry for
issue-thread interaction resolution outcomes while preserving privacy
boundaries around user answers and internal identifiers.
- Proposed solution: Emit `interaction.resolved` once from terminal
interaction resolution paths, passing runtime dimensions through the
shared telemetry helper while preserving aggregate-safe counts and
ID/free-text omission.
- Alternatives considered: Normalizing interaction dimensions in the
interaction service duplicated telemetry backend responsibility and made
unknown-value handling inconsistent across telemetry clients.
- Roadmap alignment: This is a focused telemetry instrumentation
follow-up that builds on the generated telemetry event types from #8818.

## What Changed

- Wires `interaction.resolved` telemetry into terminal issue-thread
interaction resolution paths after successful database writes.
- Passes raw interaction kind, status, continuation policy, resolution
reason, target type, and creator agent role values to the shared
telemetry helper instead of maintaining service-local allowlists.
- Preserves resolver classification, target `none` derivation for
non-confirmation interactions, non-negative aggregate counts, raw ID
omission, and free-text omission.
- Logs telemetry failures without blocking interaction resolution.
- Adds service-level tests for accepted, rejected, answered,
stale-target expiry, superseded-comment expiry, and raw creator-role
pass-through payloads.

## Verification

- `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links && pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-telemetry.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/shared-telemetry-events.test.ts`
- `pnpm typecheck`
- GitHub PR checks on the latest head commit are green, including
`verify`, build, e2e, general tests, serialized server suites, security
scans, and Greptile Review.
- Security code review completed before this branch update.

## Risks

- Low operational risk: telemetry is emitted after successful
persistence and telemetry failures are logged without blocking the
user-visible interaction flow.
- Main behavioral risk is duplicate or missing telemetry from a
resolution path; the focused tests cover the terminal resolution
variants.
- Telemetry dimension normalization now depends on the shared telemetry
backend path instead of the interaction service, so backend
normalization must remain the source of truth for unknown or empty
dimension values.
- The existing PR branch name contains an internal task id because this
update continues an already-open PR branch instead of opening a
replacement PR.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-5 Codex coding agent, API-based coding environment with
shell, repository, and GitHub CLI tool use. Context window size was not
reported by the runtime.
