DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 d361f92071 feat(task-chat): show harness status notices as chips, out of the answer (#19267)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - Agents run through the native runner. The runner turns harness
events from Codex and Claude into canonical provider events, and the
task chat shows them.
> - Harnesses report their own lifecycle: context compaction, retries,
model fallback, and warnings. Paperclip lost or mangled these reports.
> - Claude (claude-agent-acp 0.73) sends compaction, model-fallback and
warning banners as ordinary message text, so "Compacting..." ended up
inside the agent's answer and the issue comment.
> - Codex sends `error` with the text in `error.message` and a
`willRetry` flag. Paperclip read `params.message`, so every Codex error
said "Provider notice", and every retry looked fatal.
> - This pull request keeps these reports out of the answer and shows
them as small status chips between the turn's activity.
> - The benefit is that users can see why an agent paused, retried or
forgot earlier context, and the answer text stays clean.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**Subsystem affected**
Native runner provider-event mapping (TypeScript driver, ACPX sidecar
and Rust runner-core) and the task chat transcript.

**Problem or motivation**
Claude status banners are mixed into assistant answer text. Codex error
notices lose their message and their retry state. The task chat hid all
of these notices, and settled turns stripped every provider notice.

**Proposed solution**
Classify Claude banners as provider notices at the ACPX boundary. Map
Codex `TurnError` fields and `willRetry` correctly. Render status
notices as inline chips. A retry chip fades after later provider work. A
final error shows the real provider message.

**Alternatives considered**
Patch claude-agent-acp to tag banners in `_meta`. ACPX keeps only
`origin`, `kind` and `source` from `_meta`, and other sessions own the
ACPX `_meta` passthrough work. Banner chunks already have no
`messageId`, and model output always has one, so the classification
needs no adapter patch.

**Roadmap alignment**
This makes existing harness signals visible. It adds no new protocol
schema. It uses the existing `paperclip.provider.notice.v1` `category`
and `details` fields.

## What Changed

- Codex `error` notifications (TypeScript `provider-events.ts` and Rust
`runner-core/src/provider_events.rs`): read `error.message`, map
`willRetry: true` to a recoverable `provider_retry` notice, keep
category `error` for a final error, and add the `CodexErrorInfo` kind,
HTTP status, and the "Reconnecting... n/m" attempt count as notice
details. Retries in one turn share one notice id.
- New `claude-status-banners.ts`: classifies the claude-agent-acp
compaction, model-fallback and SDK informational banners. A chunk must
have no `messageId` and match a known banner exactly.
- ACPX sidecar and the TypeScript ACPX driver emit these banners as
`provider_notice` events instead of answer text. Compaction start and
end share one notice key and carry a `Phase` detail.
- Rust runner-core accepts an optional `noticeKey` and bounded `details`
on ACPX `provider_notice` events.
- UI: new `TaskChatStatusNotice` chip and
`status-notice-presentation.ts`. Status notices become top-level
timeline rows, render as chips wherever protocol cards render, and stay
visible in settled (historical) turns. Generic warnings stay hidden as
before.
- New tokens `--tc-status-notice-warning-*` in `ui/src/index.css`.
- Storybook story `Tasks and conversations/.../Task chat/Status notices`
with eight states.
- `doc/run-log-events.md`: describes the status notice categories.

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run
src/components/task-chat src/components/transcript`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner exec vitest run
src/provider-events.test.ts
src/drivers/acpx/claude-status-banners.test.ts
src/drivers/acpx/codex-acpx-driver.test.ts
src/cli/acpx-runtime-sidecar.test.ts`
- `cargo test -p paperclip-runner-core --lib provider_events` and
`--test acpx_provider_events`
- `pnpm check:token-gates`
- Storybook: open
`product-task-chat-status-notices--all-states-gallery`.
- Live test-drive on an isolated worktree instance:
- Codex (gpt-5.6-sol, app-server 0.160): a local pass-through proxy in
front of the real OpenAI API cut the first two response streams. Codex
ran its own retries. The chat showed an amber "Reconnecting" chip live,
then "Recovered after retry" once work continued. With every stream cut,
Codex made five retries and then sent a final error with the real
message.
- Claude (claude-haiku-5-5 through claude-agent-acp 0.73): a long
reading task triggered Claude's own auto-compaction twice. The chat
showed "Compacting context…" live and "Context compacted" afterwards.
The final answer and the issue comment contained no compaction text.
- Not verified live: model fallback and Claude informational banners.
They need a model refusal or a blocking hook. Unit tests cover them.

## Risks

- Low to medium. A Claude model message that is exactly a banner text
and has no `messageId` would become a notice. Model output from
claude-agent-acp always carries a `messageId`.
- Older stored Codex `error` notices (category `error`, not recoverable)
now render as a red row instead of being hidden.
- Claude retries (`api_retry`) are still not visible. claude-agent-acp
reports them only to clients that negotiate session-failure records, and
ACPX drops `_meta`. This is a follow-up that depends on the ACPX `_meta`
passthrough work.
- On a failed Codex turn the thread collapses to a summary, so the red
row does not show there. The existing task banner already shows the real
provider message.
- Some local suites failed on this machine. They do not touch the
changed code: Cursor Cloud staging-custody tests, the ACPX Claude
dependency-graph pin test (a timeout), and the Rust `task_memory`
monitor tests. CI is the reference for these.

with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`) in Claude Code, with tool use,
code execution and browser automation. Default context window. Extended
reasoning was not enabled.

@paperclipai/ui

Published static assets for the Paperclip board UI.

What gets published

The npm package contains the production build under dist/. It does not ship the UI source tree or workspace-only dependencies.

Storybook

Storybook config, stories, and fixtures live under ui/storybook/.

pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui storybook
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build-storybook

Typical use

Install the package, then serve or copy the built files from node_modules/@paperclipai/ui/dist.

Editor dependency identity

Keep the root and workspace overrides for @codemirror/state, @codemirror/view, and @lezer/common aligned. CodeMirror requires shared extension identity, while Lezer parsers and syntax highlighters require shared NodeProp IDs. Multiple Lezer copies can crash code-block highlighting with tags is not iterable. src/lib/codemirror-single-instance.test.ts checks the installed dependency graph and highlights sample code through the editor's real language dependencies. GitHub Actions owns regeneration of pnpm-lock.yaml.
