## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work. > - People talk to agents in Agent Chat. The agent's final message becomes the chat reply. > - A chat turn can end while its task stays held: a pending approval, an execution stage or a dependency blocker keeps the status. > - #20179 made live run completion post that held turn's answer. It added `conversationTurnAnswered()`. > - Background presentation recovery still required a `conversation_turn_finished` decision and a `done` result. > - If the server restarts between the status commit and the live presentation, recovery skips the held turn. The person never gets an answer. > - Restarts are product failures. A committed answer must not be lost. > - This pull request makes recovery use the same answered rule as the live path, through one shared helper. > - The benefit is that a held turn's answer reaches the chat exactly once, with or without a restart. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Refs #20179 (live fix; this PR closes the "Known gap" in its Risks section). **What happened** In an Agent Chat, the agent resubmitted a hire approval and ended its turn with a yielded result. The finalizer committed `governed_response_waiting` and moved the task to `in_review`. The server restarted before run completion posted the reply. Background presentation recovery found the run as a candidate, but declined it, because it accepted only `conversation_turn_finished` with a `done` result. No reply was posted. The run stayed a pending presentation candidate. **Expected behavior** After a restart, recovery posts the held turn's final answer exactly once. It never posts a second copy when the live path already presented the answer. When the turn's own question or confirmation card presents it, recovery posts nothing and records that decision, as the live path does. **Steps to reproduce** 1. Open an Agent Chat. Link a pending hire approval to the chat task. 2. Let the agent end the turn with a yielded result and a `response_wake` continuation. The status decision commits as `governed_response_waiting`. 3. Stop the server after the status commit and before run completion presents the reply. 4. Start the server. Presentation recovery runs. 5. See that the chat shows no reply. ## What Changed - `server/src/services/native-runtime/native-governance.ts`: add `conversationTurnPresentsAnswer()`. It is the one rule for whether a successful conversation turn's prose is its answer: `conversation_turn_finished`, or a committed decision with no pending card of the turn (`conversationTurnAnswered()`). - `server/src/services/heartbeat/run-completion.ts`: the live path calls the shared helper. No change in behavior. - `server/src/services/native-runtime/native-run-finalizer.ts` (`recoverCommittedNativeChatResponse`): - A current conversation turn no longer needs `conversation_turn_finished`. The turn must still be the unsettled current turn: same agent, user, session generation, `conversationState: active`, and no other execution run. A `conversation_turn_finished` turn still needs `in_progress`. - A conversation turn with a `yielded` result is accepted next to `done`. - The resolver gets `conversationTurnFinished` from the shared helper. - When the turn's own card presents it, recovery records `presentationDecision: none` (reason `committed_conversation_interaction_presented`) and settles the conversation turn, like the live path. The run then leaves the pending presentation set. Before, such a run stayed a candidate. - `server/src/services/native-runtime/native-response-presentation-query.ts`: the candidate prefilter matches the same turns: any committed reason for an active conversation turn, and `yielded` conversation results. - `server/src/services/native-runtime/agent-chat-response-recovery.test.ts`: restart regressions with the real finalizer and a real database. - `doc/execution-semantics.md`: state that recovery applies the same rule. ## Verification - Failing first. With only the new tests applied, 5 of 7 new cases failed: pending approval, revision-requested approval, execution stage (all yielded), pending approval with `done`, and the own-card case. The run was a candidate, but recovery posted nothing and did not settle it. - After the fix: `cd server && npx vitest run src/services/native-runtime/agent-chat-response-recovery.test.ts src/services/heartbeat/run-completion.test.ts src/__tests__/idle-native-finalization.test.ts src/services/presentation-ownership-read.test.ts src/services/chat-monitor-continuation.test.ts src/services/native-runtime/native-preserved-monitor-wait.test.ts src/services/native-runtime/native-response-publication-retry.test.ts src/services/heartbeat/run-lifecycle.test.ts src/__tests__/scoped-deadline-work.test.ts src/services/native-runtime/paperclip-control-plane-port.test.ts src/__tests__/heartbeat-run-summary.test.ts src/__tests__/agent-conversations.test.ts`: 12 files, 627 tests passed. - The new cases check: - Held turns: the run is a candidate, the check posts the exact final answer once, the presentation decision is recorded, the run leaves the candidate set, and a second recovery returns false with one comment. - Live already presented: no candidate, no second comment. - Own question card: no comment, `presentationDecision: none`, the card stays pending, the conversation settles to `waiting`, and the run leaves the candidate set. - Previous-release live decision `none` (`yielded_control_plane_wait`): kept, not re-presented. - `tsc --noEmit -p server`: no errors in changed files. Four unrelated errors remain in this local worktree (`esbuild` not linked in `native-harness-prestage.test.ts`, and a linked-package type mismatch in `run-dispatch/adapters/postgres.ts`). - Turn start: no change. The helper runs only in run completion (after the provider turn ends) and in background presentation recovery. Nothing new runs before `turn.start`, and no files move. The live path keeps the same queries: it short-circuits on `conversation_turn_finished`, and otherwise runs the same card read as before. ## Risks - Low to medium. Recovery can now post the answer of a conversation turn whose task is held. This matches the live path since #20179. - A card-presented turn found by recovery is now settled with `presentationDecision: none`. Before, it stayed a pending candidate and kept the presentation worker (and idle-sleep checks) busy. - A `conversation_turn_finished` turn keeps the `in_progress` check. Held turns accept any status their gate committed. The unsettled-turn checks (active conversation state, session generation, execution run) still block stale or superseded turns. - Previous-release state: no persisted shape changes. A run committed by the previous release with no saved presentation decision (the restart window) is recovered by the new code. The test fixture uses the unchanged finalizer, so it saves exactly the previous release's shape. A run whose live path already recorded a decision keeps it. A held turn that the previous release recorded as `yielded_control_plane_wait` is not re-presented, so no late duplicate or stale reply appears. - Not changed: generic stranded-work recovery in `recovery/service.ts` still skips only `conversation_turn_finished` runs during the publication window. > For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR.
