DottaandPaperclip 36df8933f0 fix(slack): resolve manager grants during bot setup (#18707)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Slack chat connections let people start and continue work with an
agent.
> - Managed setup reuses a personal Slack workspace authorization to
create and install the bot.
> - The provisioning route passed that Slack grant ID to the generic
tool-grant lookup.
> - A valid workspace therefore failed with a 404 before provisioning
started.
> - This pull request selects the existing Slack grant resolver for
provisioning and validates the request-body ID.
> - The benefit is that saved Slack setup can continue while company and
personal ownership checks remain enforced.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs: #15679, which introduced managed Slack setup.

**What happened?**

Continuing a saved managed Slack draft returned `Connection management
resource not found`. The workspace list and endpoint read both
succeeded. The provisioning POST returned 404.

**Expected behavior**

Continue should use the selected personal Slack manager grant and create
or resume the bot once.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Authorize a Slack workspace for managed bot setup.
2. Create or resume a managed Slack chat connection.
3. Select the saved workspace and choose Continue.

## What Changed

- Select the Slack manager-grant resolver for the managed provisioning
route.
- Accept a validated grant ID from the route parameter or request body.
Enforce the current user's ownership for both board and agent requests.
- Run the existing duplicate-install regression through the HTTP route.
Add HTTP rejection cases for missing, malformed, foreign-company and
other-user grants.
- Document the grant boundary and update the matching feature and
agent-access maps.

The shared authorization guard owns resource resolution and company
checks. Its existing Slack resolver previously handled only the
revocation route parameter. This change extends that resolver to the
provisioning body's grant ID. Generic tool-grant resolution and
deployments without managed Slack keep their existing path.

## Verification

- Before the fix, the HTTP installation regression failed with the same
404 as the browser walkthrough.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/chat-channels.integration.test.ts -t 'managed
Slack'` — 31 passed. Uses real PostgreSQL, production routes and
provider fixtures. The board actor is a fixture; this does not qualify
live Slack or agent authentication.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and `git diff --check` — passed.
- `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` — passed. Full local Vitest is
running. [All CI gates
passed](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41561466277)
for commit c04b426e60. Greptile and
Paperclip reviews are 5/5 with no required changes. Deployed Slack
acceptance remains pending.

## Risks

- Low risk. The guard must select the correct grant registry. Tests
cover valid ownership, duplicate requests and rejected IDs.
- Board requests now receive the ownership denial in the guard. The
Slack service already required the same owner.
- No schema, credential format, provider scope or runtime transport
changes.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository editing, browser
use and command execution. The runtime does not expose a more precise
model ID or context-window size.
