## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work > - When a remote workspace save fails, recovery actions hold the task until the run's files are saved > - #20641 lets a resolved no-replay hold settle when a sibling action of the same run saved the files > - Review found that the settlement did not release the task's Blocked status, and that a settled hold with a historical source stayed selectable > - A new test with the waiting user comment also showed that the worker skipped the second hold of the same run in every pass, so it never settled > - #20641 was merged before these fixes were pushed > - This pull request completes #20641 with those fixes > - The benefit is that the task leaves Blocked and continues without a person ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Refs #20641, Refs #20569 **What happened?** #20641 merged at its first head. The review follow-ups for it were pushed later and are not on master: - A settled no-replay hold that owned the task's Blocked status (`nativeFailureBlock`) left the task `blocked`. - A hold settled by a sibling stayed selectable through `workspaceRecoverySourceEligible` when it named a `historicalWorkspaceSource`. - With saved user input waiting, the export hold stayed selectable and came first in each worker pass. `reconcileRetainedWorkspaces` skipped the other hold of the same run, so the no-replay hold never settled. **Expected behavior** After the save, the no-replay hold settles in the same or next pass. The task returns to `todo` when that hold owns its Blocked status. The settled hold is never selected again. **Steps to reproduce** 1. Use the staging-shape test in `workspace-recovery-capture-policy.test.ts`, with a waiting "try again" comment. 2. Run the worker until nothing is due. 3. On master, the worker never goes idle and the no-replay hold stays `resolved`/`blocked`. ## What Changed - `workspace-recovery-fallback.ts`: new shared `holdOwnsBlockedStatus`, used by `continueFromLastSavedWorkspace` and `settleSiblingRecoveredHold`. A settled no-replay hold that owns the Blocked status returns the task to `todo`. A newer decision's Blocked status is kept. An export hold's status stays with its own result finalization. - `workspace-recovery-source.ts`: `workspaceRecoverySourceEligible` excludes a resolved hold that carries `siblingWorkspaceRecovery`. - `workspace-recovery.ts`: `reconcileRetainedWorkspaces` runs several holds of one run one after another in that run's job, instead of skipping the later ones. - `workspace-recovery-capture-policy.test.ts`: the staging test now has the waiting comment, and a variant with `nativeFailureBlock` and `historicalWorkspaceSource`. It checks `todo`, no re-selection, and no repeat handoff in a later pass. - `doc/execution-semantics.md`: documents these rules. ## Verification - Red, with each rule disabled: the status stayed `blocked`; the settled hold was selected again; the worker never went idle (starvation). - Green: `npx vitest run --root server` on 14 workspace recovery suites (including `workspace-recovery-capture-policy`, `-fallback`, `-admission`, `-source`, `execution-blocker-read`, `preserved-native-response-wait.integration`): all passed. - `npx tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json`: clean. ## Risks - Several holds of one run now run in sequence in one job. Concurrency per run is unchanged (one job per run). - A no-replay hold releases the Blocked status only when it still owns it. Otherwise the status is kept. - Previous-release story: no new persisted state. Holds saved by earlier releases are handled on the first worker pass after deploy. > For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR.
