Runtime #15727 is merged. This PR adds the UI. Qualification follows in
#15729.
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip manages agent work through tasks and governed connections.
> - Chat connections already bind external conversations to those tasks.
> - Speko handles voice and telephony, while the selected Paperclip
agent does the work.
> - A call needs durable session authority, ordered follow-ups, and safe
result delivery.
> - This PR adds the Speko setup and call controls to the existing Apps
and task UI.
> - This PR depends on #15727. The qualification suite follows
separately. Speko stays experimental.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
**Problem or motivation**
Phone and browser voice conversations cannot use the chat connection
task lifecycle. A separate voice runtime is needed to preserve task
authority, retries, and reply history.
**Proposed solution**
Add company-scoped voice sessions, signed callbacks, durable replies,
inbound intake, and an agent-facing outbound-call tool. Reuse existing
tasks, queues, secrets, and publications.
**Roadmap alignment**
This extends the experimental chat connector entry points under Agent
Chat and Connected Apps. The project owner requested this feature.
Refs #11418 for the original provider catalog proposal. This
implementation uses the newer chat connection infrastructure rather than
an MCP catalog-only integration. Refs #15721 for remote OpenCode
startup.
## What Changed
- Add the Speko Apps catalog entry, provider artwork, and browser SDK.
- Reuse existing agents in setup. Keep the optional Company Phone Agent
in the catalog, with connection instructions available to any assigned
agent.
- Add task voice controls, transcripts, phone callbacks, inbound-line
settings, and call Activity entries.
- Surface retryable connection and incoming-task inventory failures,
preserve active call controls and cached tasks, restore keyboard focus
after recovery, and bound notification polling so a stuck request cannot
hide later results.
- Put Save & exit and Connect Speko in the credential step’s shared
footer.
- Add deterministic production-component Storybook fixtures for setup,
lifecycle, failures, permissions, and phone surfaces.
- Include voice components in the design guide. Stories never request a
real microphone or place calls.
## Verification
- All 27 focused UI/controller regressions, UI typecheck, token gates,
and 28 map/catalog structural tests pass. The shared connection cache
test covers pause/resume invalidation during the 30-second fresh period.
- Storybook builds 157 Speko production-component stories. The complete
prior 156-story set passed all 624 checks on UI source 249cbc616a. After
the final cache repair, all 152 affected page/launcher checks passed
across both themes, 390/1200 widths and reduced motion. Real microphone
access and external provider requests are blocked.
- Source annotations follow the current generated-catalog contract. No
generated catalog or lockfile is included. Three inherited
GitHub-heading tests passed after master reconciliation.
- Latest-head CI and Greptile review must pass before merge. Local
fixture success does not establish provider or spoken-playback
acceptance.
- The separate integrated browser run passed two journeys and failed
browser answer retrieval. Real browser/telephone playback and timing
acceptance remain outstanding. See the dated qualification report and
E01–E16 runbook. Speko stays experimental.
## Risks
- Voice sessions add migrations and provider-dependent lifecycle
behavior. Migrations preserve existing chat and AI transports.
- Callback origins must be reachable HTTPS. Provider keys and signing
secrets remain vaulted.
- Unverified callers receive task-scoped low-trust authority. Caller ID
does not grant private task access.
- Outbound telephony incurs provider charges. Provider acceptance is not
proof that the caller heard an answer.
- Keep the feature behind the existing experimental chat setting until
the real browser, inbound, outbound, and delayed-result acceptance
matrix passes.

External chat and email conversations — agent access
Product map: External chat and email conversations.
Review date: 2026-10-12. Source commit: 58e16dbddfc9c8d0cf60867f9d9847f0feda055b.
Native REST transport reconciled in this change; see the
shared transport contract.
This is a source-reviewed baseline of representative operations and known gaps. Each capability needs operation-level review before its entire scope can be qualified. No live agent execution is claimed. Follow the map contract for format, permission checks, evidence and maintenance.
providers
Review: baseline.
API: present — representative operation IDs:
POST /api/companies/{companyId}/chat-endpoints.
Agent access: restricted — Board setup APIs; native connection request can ask for
setup.
Policy: Endpoint management/identity linking requires a board user; delivery is server-owned and agent tools use scoped assignments.
Evidence: source-only — implementation
at the reviewed commit above.
Verification: not-run — assert the documented agent denial with an owned test fixture;
verify any listed agent request/result path separately. A delegated operation needs its
own policy and access review.
Gaps: Provider installation and account enrollment are not available to an ordinary agent actor.
Speko UI reconciliation (2026-10-13): experimental voice setup uses the same board-managed endpoint boundary. Source review follows the merged voice runtime and the UI integration; live provider qualification is still separate.
identity
Review: baseline.
API: present — representative operation IDs:
POST /api/chat-identity-links/confirm.
Agent access: restricted — Human identity-link flow.
Policy: Endpoint management/identity linking requires a board user; delivery is server-owned and agent tools use scoped assignments.
Evidence: source-only — implementation
at the reviewed commit above.
Verification: not-run — assert the documented agent denial with an owned test fixture;
verify any listed agent request/result path separately. A delegated operation needs its
own policy and access review.
Gaps: Identity linking requires a signed-in board user, rollout admission and
provider checks at the HTTP route. Native call_api preserves these permissions.
conversation
Review: baseline.
API: present — representative operation IDs:
POST /api/chat-endpoints/{endpointId}/conversations/{conversationId}/publications.
Agent access: partial — Assigned-agent reply pipeline; native completion; provider
tools where assigned.
Policy: Endpoint management/identity linking requires a board user; delivery is server-owned and agent tools use scoped assignments.
Evidence: source-only — implementation
at the reviewed commit above.
Verification: not-run — exercise a listed permitted operation with actual agent
credentials/run context; inspect its result and applicable persistence/attribution.
Assert the relevant denied actor, owner, company or mode from Policy. Review the
remaining operations before qualifying the whole capability.
Gaps: Normal agent replies work through server delivery. Explicit endpoint publication APIs are board management paths.
Speko browser sessions use POST /api/companies/{companyId}/voice-sessions,
with GET inspection/notification and POST /{sessionId}/end operations below
that collection. These routes require board identity; ordinary agent credentials
cannot start a private voice session. Start and notification also require the
experimental chat-connectors gate. Signed provider callbacks use the separate
voice-webhook routes and their session capability. Evidence: source-only —
voice routes. No live browser answer
retrieval or telephone playback is established by the UI fixtures.
Slack's Require at-mention policy applies to channel messages and channel thread replies, including queued work. DMs are exempt from mention checks; endpoint availability, Allow direct messages, and sender authorization still apply. Top-level DM replies retain their linear conversation destination. Source: admission and queued run policy. Live Slack verification of this exemption remains separate from provider-fixture coverage.
New conversations resolve typed project/workspace defaults from their endpoint and destination under the task-creation transaction. Defaults do not authorize private sources: admission checks the linked user's authority and assigned agent. An existing conversation keeps its task binding. See creation service and defaults contract.
attachments
Review: baseline.
API: present — representative operation IDs:
GET /api/issues/{id}/attachments.POST /api/companies/{companyId}/issues/{issueId}/attachments.
Agent access: partial — Native register_deliverable / attachment tools when admitted;
agent REST; server-owned delivery.
Policy: Endpoint management/identity linking requires a board user; delivery is server-owned and agent tools use scoped assignments.
Evidence: source-only — implementation
at the reviewed commit above.
Verification: not-run — exercise a listed permitted operation with actual agent
credentials/run context; inspect its result and applicable persistence/attribution.
Assert the relevant denied actor, owner, company or mode from Policy. Review the
remaining operations before qualifying the whole capability.
Gaps: Uploading/registering is supported. Provider delivery status and board replay are separate operations.
lifecycle
Review: baseline.
API: present — representative operation IDs:
GET /api/chat-endpoints/{endpointId}/activity.PATCH /api/chat-endpoints/{endpointId}.PUT /api/chat-endpoints/{endpointId}/resourcesconfigures destination defaults.
Agent access: restricted — Board lifecycle APIs; agent requests repair when blocked.
Policy: Endpoint management/identity linking requires a board user; delivery is server-owned and agent tools use scoped assignments.
Evidence: source-only — implementation
at the reviewed commit above.
Verification: not-run — assert the documented agent denial with an owned test fixture;
verify any listed agent request/result path separately. A delegated operation needs its
own policy and access review.
Gaps: Activity/repair/replay/disable use board endpoint access, not the agent's ability to reply.
Endpoint/destination execution defaults use the same board-only management boundary. Agents select an authorized workspace for their current task through the workspace APIs, rather than editing channel configuration.
Speko callback preferences, incoming phone configuration/approval, and call
history use the company-scoped voice-callbacks, voice-phone, and
voice-history routes. Their UI controls do not grant agents board authority.
See voice routes; service-level
caller/session permissions and real provider delivery need separate verification.
GitHub review summary headings use the bot display name. Checks remain independently scoped by GitHub App and endpoint/PR/commit identity.
