Nicky LeachandPaperclip 5fbece9dcc Synchronize assigned skills through agent runtime hooks (#16501)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages shared skills and agent assignments.
> - Runtime plugins need installed skills before a task starts.
> - Skill content can change without changing the agent row.
> - Source access and version pins also affect delivered files.
> - This pull request feeds those changes into the durable runtime
stream.
> - The runtime reader resolves the same immutable skill sources used
for execution.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Builds on merged PR #16499. This pull request now targets `master` and
contains only the five skill synchronization commits.

**Problem**

Plugins receive no durable notification when an assigned skill changes.
A saved assignment can also become inaccessible after private-source
access changes.

**Proposed solution**

Invalidate referencing agents at installed skill mutations. Invalidate
inherited access when source bindings, project privacy, or policy
change. Return authorized skill sources and version IDs through the
owning runtime reader.

**Alternatives considered**

Activity-only subscriptions miss service writers. Per-task
synchronization adds preparation work. Copying current files would
ignore version pins.

**Roadmap alignment**

This extends existing skills, source synchronization, and plugin runtime
support.

## What Changed

- Defer multi-skill source runtime hooks until commit, after publication
holds all skill rows. Keep file-save journaling immediate to preserve
filesystem rollback.

- Add transactional invalidations for skill content, companion files,
versions, rename, deletion, policy, source access, and pin-setting
changes.
- Recognize canonical keys and supported legacy aliases.
- Reuse the execution skill resolver, current agent access, and instance
version-pin rules.
- Resolve and materialize sources outside the agent row lock. Recheck
ownership and runtime revision afterward.
- Keep task-only mentions and running-task snapshots in the execution
path.
- Document conservative invalidations for pinned assignments and
inherited access.

## Verification

- Rebased onto origin/master `9f4a956b90`, which contains merged PR
#16499. All five commits are unchanged according to `git range-diff`; no
conflict resolutions or source changes were needed.
- On rebased head `58b065941`, all 237 focused tests passed: runtime
skill hooks/source publication (41), plus content service, assignment
routes, policy routes, and project source access (196).
- Server typecheck passed after rebuilding Runner with the installed
Rust toolchain. Migration numbering/safety and map checks passed;
snapshot pruning made no changes. Migration CLI checks required local
IPC permission.
- Real PostgreSQL coverage includes concurrent source
publication/version saves, policy-only tightening/restoration,
referencing-agent fanout, company isolation, no-op counters, supporting
files, rename/deletion, rollback, private-source access, pinned/latest
bytes, and unassignment.
- Earlier stack validation passed workspace typecheck/build. Fresh
hosted CI and review must verify the rebased head before handoff.
- The broad local suite was previously limited by an unchanged
diagnostic test that rejects "private" in an error stack under this
/private/tmp worktree; that unchanged suite passed all 108 tests in the
original checkout. Hosted full-suite checks provide exact-head
verification.
- Diff whitespace and full PR secret/PII scan passed.
- All hosted CI/security checks are green on `58b065941`; fresh standard
Greptile and Apex both returned 5/5 with no findings or unresolved
threads. The PR targets master and is mergeable without conflicts.

## Risks

- Apply migration 0348 after the runtime-stream migration in #16499.
- Content invalidations include pinned assignments. The resolved version
stays pinned; consumers can avoid writes when its version/hash is
unchanged.
- Project access and source changes invalidate only agents assigned
skills from the affected sources. Company policy still invalidates the
company. Source polling bookkeeping and popularity counters do not
create work.
- The reader rebuilds installed caches without upstream requests.
Concurrent changes cause a bounded retry and then a conflict.
- Private transport integration and live remote computer qualification
remain separate.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with reasoning, repository inspection, code
execution, and testing. The exact deployment model ID and context window
are not exposed in this session.

Paperclip agent access map

This map accompanies the feature map. It records APIs, agent entry points, permission boundaries and verification for the same capability IDs. The shared contract defines the format and maintenance rules.

Browse access contracts

The same-named feature recipes define navigation and capability IDs. Run node scripts/storybook-catalog.mjs for the generated maps/generated/agent-access-map.md index, or browse the published feature guide. Add or update the affected companion; there is no central registration or count.

Existing baseline source references describe the original inspection, not current verification. Record new executed evidence in the PR, issue, or CI artifact with its revision and scope. Do not refresh unrelated headers as bookkeeping.

Using an entry

Read its Policy and Gaps before selecting an agent path. Native fallback, legacy REST/CLI, stdio MCP and a personal assistant connection can have different authority and availability. Use a real admitted production binding; a scenario declaration is not an installed tool. A restricted entry records current enforcement and leaves any unresolved delegation decision visible.

For API catalog disagreements, follow the route/service authorization and record discovery drift. For not-applicable, retain the concrete exception and local path. Split shared business operations from client-only presentation.

Use maintain-verification-skill to reconcile changed source and both maps. Use verify-paperclip and existing API/runner/MCP fixtures to collect the permitted-agent and denial evidence; report blocked/not-run coverage honestly. Run node scripts/check-maps.mjs after editing. The structural check does not certify permissions, API catalog coverage, tool admission or live behavior.

Native REST transport

The call_api parity change reconciles affected baselines against 58e16dbddfc9c8d0cf60867f9d9847f0feda055b and the changes in this PR. Ordinary REST operations use the same route authorization as legacy agent REST. Dedicated tools remain optional for those operations; protocol endpoints still need their existing clients. Board-only routes remain restricted for agent identity.

Native search_api / call_api requires operator rollout admission, a running authorized native run, current task assignment and execution-run binding, company and budget authority, task privacy, and a permitted work mode. Ask and Plan retain mutation restrictions, and runs retain their admitted JWT scope during restart recovery even when task mode changes. A waiting agent does not gain independent native control just because a REST route exists.

Credential-bearing replies, including company exports and their legacy alias, stay inline under a 10 MiB limit and use encrypted mutation receipts. Other saved API snapshots are limited to the issuing actor and responsible user, plus authorized administrators. Artifact uploads enforce the same access checks as downloads; private snapshots are excluded from company exports and public company logos. Explicit deliverables use the existing sharing path. Native event history, checkpoints and completion records omit API bodies while preserving receipt metadata and replay digests. Restored webhook secrets use the same encrypted receipt and inline response policy as newly created webhook secrets. Task image access requires the company boundary and the task permission; skill-test and low-trust agents do not need company-wide browsing authority. Completion replay applies the same idempotent projection to stored and expected payloads; the run-log guide describes its fields.

Sources: API client, catalog, native authority, credential storage classification, snapshot access, and history redaction. The affected entries remain baseline and source-only; this reconciliation does not certify every operation. Targeted real-route proof lives in the API integration suite, including owned routines, skill tests, scoped secrets, proposals and private export replay.
