## Thinking Path > - Paperclip manages agent work and its execution history. > - Sandbox agents use a callback bridge to reach the control plane. > - The API already provides authorized run diagnostics. > - The bridge denied those read routes before the API could check access. > - Health scans could see task activity but could not inspect failed runs. > - This pull request admits exact GET routes on both bridge transports. > - Linked task results also apply the caller's task-read filter. > - Agents can inspect failures through their existing run identity. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description **What happened?** A sandbox health scan received `403 Route not allowed` for run history, run details, events, and task recovery records. The same agent could read task activity and connected provider state. The bridge stopped these diagnostic requests before they reached the API. **Expected behavior** The bridge should admit the existing diagnostic GET routes. The API must still enforce company and task access and redact run content. Execution and recovery writes must stay denied by these rules. **Steps to reproduce** 1. Start an agent in a sandbox with the normal callback bridge. 2. Use its injected API credential to request company run history. 3. Request a run's details or events. 4. Observe the bridge's route denial before the API handles the request. **Paperclip version or commit** Reproduced with the callback route list on master at `9f4a956b906`. **Deployment mode** Authenticated server with a managed sandbox. Both queue and HTTP/2 transports use this route list. Related work: Refs #15854 adds separate cost-read routes to this list. It does not add run diagnostics. Searches found no duplicate run-diagnostic change. ## What Changed - Admit nine existing diagnostic GET paths: company history and live runs; run details, events, logs, workspace operations and task links; task runs and recovery records. - Reject other methods, extra path segments, execution control, recovery resolution, and provider-trace administration. - Filter linked tasks by the caller's task-read predicate in both activity and original-task queries. Keep those results in the run's company. A readable run must not expose private task titles. - Test both route lists and the HTTP/2 request path. Preserve query parameters and controller denial responses. Add a database regression with public and private tasks linked to a readable company run. - Document bounded diagnostic reads, private-run stubs, access checks, and credential handling in the agent API reference. Update both affected run access maps with the sandbox entry points and verification limits. ## Verification - Passed both bridge suites: 139 tests. - Passed the server run-route, activity-route, and secret-redaction suites: 117 tests, including the new task-link filter test. The cold route-import test needed a 30-second timeout on this host. - Passed `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, the adapter-utils typecheck, both generated capability checks, and `node scripts/check-maps.mjs`. - Attempted `pnpm test:run`. The bundled PostgreSQL binary cannot start on this host. The native session suite reported 15 database startup failures; the privacy suite skipped its 15 cases. Stopped that full local attempt after those failures. No full local-suite pass is claimed. The final 16-case privacy suite also skipped locally for the same host limitation; Linux CI ran all 16 cases successfully. - One unchanged queue-response test hit a file-read race during the combined local run. A separate rerun of both complete bridge suites passed all 139 cases. The transient race was not independently isolated; the original failure is retained in this record. - All CI gates pass on head `97c65cec459d3fc2787083d05ae6ec51e3fd7b70`. Linux CI passed all 16 database-backed run privacy cases, including the new public/private task-link regression. These also cover private-run denial, authorized owner/reviewer reads, redacted list stubs, credential diagnostics, and deleted-task handling: [serialized shard 1](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38925932547/job/117057907621). - Apex reviewed the final head at 5/5. Both findings are addressed and their review threads are resolved. - After deployment, run a new sandbox audit. Confirm it can list and inspect authorized failed runs without a board credential. This has not been deployed or live-tested by this PR. ## Risks - Sandbox agents can reach more diagnostic GET routes. The existing server access checks and redaction still apply. - Linked task results now omit tasks that the caller cannot read. Authorized task links remain visible. - This change does not grant execution control or recover a failed workspace. - Existing bridge sessions may need a new run to load the updated route list. - No schema, credential, UI, workflow, or lockfile change. ## Model Used OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, assisted with implementation and verification.

Dashboards, activity, and audit trails — agent access
Product map: Dashboards, activity, and audit trails.
Review date: 2026-10-12. Source commit: f981fa3cc10cb8663a87dec60345fbff46d54d0a.
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.
overview
Review: baseline.
API: present — representative operation IDs:
GET /api/companies/{companyId}/dashboard.
Agent access: available — REST / native call_api / CLI dashboard.
Policy: Same company plus visibility/audit/cost/run permissions where the route requires them.
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: Dashboard data is accessible; live-work rendering and event streaming are separate surfaces.
activity
Review: baseline.
API: present — representative operation IDs:
GET /api/companies/{companyId}/activity.GET /api/issues/{id}/activity(UUID or issue identifier).
Agent access: partial — REST / native call_api / CLI activity for company
activity. Sandbox agents can use GET issue activity through the default
callback bridge.
The bridge still rejects company activity and company audit routes.
Policy: Company activity requires same-company access and company_scope:read,
with issue visibility filtering. Issue activity requires same-company resource
access and issue:read for the resolved issue. The sandbox transport does not
replace those controller checks or permit activity writes.
Evidence: source-only — activity routes,
agent authorization tests,
and bridge tests.
Issue activity transport reviewed at 89770ba707fb1ebd4cabd184eec2e7fee226e0c3;
other operations retain the baseline source review above.
Verification: not-run — no live agent-credential proof. Local route and bridge
regressions pass: permitted agent issue read, denied company/resource scope,
denied writes, extra path segments, and company audit routes. With a real
sandbox agent, read an authorized issue's activity, then verify denial for an
inaccessible issue, another company, and company-wide audit.
Gaps: Audit export and raw activity creation have extra restrictions; do not equate them with issue activity reading. Live sandbox access remains unverified.
runs
Review: baseline.
API: present — representative operation IDs:
GET /api/companies/{companyId}/heartbeat-runs.GET /api/companies/{companyId}/live-runs.GET /api/heartbeat-runs/{runId}.GET /api/heartbeat-runs/{runId}/events.GET /api/heartbeat-runs/{runId}/log.GET /api/heartbeat-runs/{runId}/workspace-operations.GET /api/heartbeat-runs/{runId}/issues.GET /api/issues/{id}/runs.GET /api/issues/{id}/recovery-actions.
Agent access: available — REST / native call_api / CLI run. Sandbox agents can
use these diagnostic GET paths through the default queue and HTTP/2
callback bridge.
Use the injected run credential; see the bounded read workflow.
Policy: Same-company and company_scope:read checks apply to company run
inventory. Run content requires run/task visibility; private run list entries
may be redacted stubs. Task run/recovery reads require issue:read. Run-linked
tasks also pass the caller's task-read SQL predicate individually, including
activity links and the original task. Existing credential redaction remains.
Bridge admission grants no cancellation, retry, recovery resolution or
provider-trace administration authority.
Evidence: source-only — scoped review of f10210990a3c9cad1a4359318388f237de3169dd:
run routes,
task links,
task filtering,
bridge regressions,
HTTP/2 transport regressions,
and private-run regressions.
Verification: not-run for a deployed sandbox agent with these new routes.
Isolated regressions cover admitted GETs, denied writes/extra segments, query
forwarding, controller denials, private run stubs, and mixed public/private task
links. They do not qualify a live run. After deployment, use a real agent run to
read an authorized failure and assert denial/redaction for another company,
private tasks and restricted key modes. Do not count a skipped database suite
as successful verification.
Gaps: Telemetry/run visibility is checked independently from seeing the source task. Company heartbeat history defaults to 200 rows and caps explicit limits at 1,000 in both the route and service. The response remains an array. Scope, visibility, and secret redaction checks apply to the bounded result set. Live updated-bridge admission and useful incident diagnosis remain unverified.
routine-audit
Review: baseline.
API: present — representative operation IDs:
GET /api/routines/{id}/runs.
Agent access: available — REST / native call_api / CLI routine runs.
Policy: Same company plus visibility/audit/cost/run permissions where the route requires them.
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: Routine execution history is distinct from configuration revisions and scheduling changes.
timeline
Review: baseline.
API: present — representative operation IDs:
GET /api/companies/{companyId}/timeline.
Agent access: available — REST / native call_api.
Policy: Same company plus visibility/audit/cost/run permissions where the route requires them.
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: API exists; no dedicated timeline tool is necessary for this requirement.
