## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work > - Agents and operators increasingly need external event sources to become durable Paperclip work inputs > - X mentions are one such source, but intake needs to be safe before any downstream automation consumes them > - The backend needs stable source state, idempotent mention storage, author gating, rate-limit handling, and budget accounting > - This pull request adds the database contract and service layer for X mention polling and hydration queueing > - The benefit is that future X-triggered workflows can build on a controlled, test-covered ingestion path instead of calling the X API directly ## Linked Issues or Issue Description - No public GitHub issue exists for this exact backend extraction. - Problem: Paperclip does not yet have a durable, budget-aware backend path for ingesting X mentions as external work inputs. - Proposed solution: add X mention source, mention, allowlist, and budget ledger tables plus a poller service that stores mentions idempotently, queues only allowlisted authors for hydration, tracks cursor state, records spend decisions, and fails closed when cost estimates are unavailable. - Related but not duplicate: #8609, #8199, and #7316 touch internal mention wake behavior rather than X API mention ingestion. ## What Changed - Added X mention poller database tables and schema exports for sources, stored mentions, author allowlists, and budget ledger entries. - Added a server-side X mention poller service with cursoring, idempotent upsert behavior, allowlist gating, hydration queue handling, rate-limit backoff, and budget pause behavior. - Added focused Vitest coverage for intake gating, duplicate retries, cursor safety, rate limits, budget failures, and hydration budget pauses. ## Verification - `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/x-mention-poller.test.ts` - `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/db typecheck` - `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` ## Risks - Migration ordering matters because this adds migration `0125_x_mention_poller.sql`; it should merge after the existing `0124` migrations on `master`. - The service is backend-only and adapter-driven in this PR, so product behavior should not change until callers wire it into a runtime path. - Budget accounting intentionally fails closed when estimates are missing, which may pause a source rather than risk unbounded API spend. ## Model Used - OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent, tool-enabled local repository and terminal workflow. ## 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 - [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable - [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>
