DottaandPaperclip 1511c92965 fix(evals): account for superseded delegation wakes (#18319)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip lets people ask agents to delegate work and return the
result.
> - The chat feature eval checks task creation, worker execution, saved
output, and delivery to the source chat.
> - A task can first belong to the CEO and then move to Morgan.
> - Paperclip correctly cancels the old assignment wake before it
starts.
> - The eval treats that queue record as a failed provider run and stops
before Morgan works.
> - This change accounts for that record separately and preserves the
complete outcome checks.
> - The report also keeps partial check results when an attempt fails.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

The delegation journey stopped on an unstarted queue record with
`issue_assignee_changed`. The CEO had created a task, assigned Morgan,
saved the brief, and returned a task link. The test stopped before
worker execution. Its report showed no individual checks even though the
saved observation contained partial results. [Original public
measurement](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/chat-progress-39e-112-latest-121-measurements-with-screenshots-40649033672/?view=case&case=chat-features.delegate-announcement).

**Expected behavior**

Keep the obsolete queue record and its events. Continue observing the
intended worker. Pass only after three successful native work runs, a
current Morgan-authored announcement, a completed task, automatic
source-chat delivery, and browser readback.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Ask the CEO to have Morgan write and save a launch announcement, then
return it to chat.
2. Create the task under the CEO, then assign Morgan before the queued
CEO run starts.
3. Observe the cancelled old assignment. The previous eval aborts at
that point.

**Paperclip version or commit**

Based on `6da112ab40d7b3cc0bcb79e08ddbb9b915a268a4` from
`origin/master`.

**Deployment mode**

Disposable Product E2E fixtures. The live check uses the trusted
default-branch workflow and AWS fleet.

Related contribution: #17794 introduced these two journeys. The open-PR
search found no separate fix for this queue-accounting defect.

## What Changed

- Recognize only explicit dispatch-gate reassignment cancellations with
a null start time and no native issue. Verify the company, prior CEO
owner, and target task now assigned to Morgan before excluding that
record from work-run counts.
- Keep every queue record in the full observation and final ledger.
Retain its events with an explicit reason for the absent provider log.
- Let the feature flow own its complete saved-state and browser oracle.
Return only actual work runs to the common provider checks.
- Record saved-state checks on failures as well as successes. Capture
the required `final-state.png` after the feature-specific browser
readback.
- Add two explicit local OpenCode cells alongside the two existing Codex
subscription cells. Use the current production-qualified model. The
earlier linked campaign used a different model, so this is a new
measurement.
- Advance the grader and suite versions. Keep the original request,
output requirements, 120-second run cap, five-minute observation bound,
budgets, and single-attempt policy.

## Verification

- Red/green regressions cover queue accounting, missing-log collection,
partial checks on evidence failure, and the required final screenshot.
Flow tests invoke the actual polling callbacks: restoring the original
callback reproduces both early-stop errors. Started cancellations still
fail.
- All 87 focused flow/grading/queue tests pass. Catalog/report checks
and the 137 additional Node checks pass. Eval typechecking passes on
final commit `0a6e11408c4470683417e6bf7965c73cec2a9a60`.
- All current CI tests/builds pass. Greptile is 5/5 on the final commit,
with no unresolved review threads.
- The final commit adds only flow test coverage. Its registered
definition digest equals live target
`e4e0be875ee12c134fe8dd2ce15a88bfcbb100ef`:
`ac6bba21d4b9cb86088be5d00df6442af90268186d6e94c9bea7d611d0488563`.
- Replaying the original saved observation still fails for missing
Morgan execution and delivery. Its stale queue record no longer counts
as provider work.

| Operation | Selected coverage | Observed result |
| --- | --- | --- |
|
[41071710105](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41071710105),
`b8dff816` | Backlog and delegation | Refused at the exact
private-retention gate before fixtures or providers. Preserved without
feature coverage. |
|
[41073708150](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41073708150),
`39be9e45` | Backlog and delegation | Both passed their full
product/browser oracles. Retained grades correctly fail missing
`final-state.png`; the feature flow had saved the image under another
name. Fixed in `e4e0be87`. Each original archive remains private and
intact; later workflow concurrency superseded only the report
aggregation. |
|
[41076854978](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41076854978),
`e4e0be87` | Backlog and delegation | Backlog passed in 92.576 seconds,
with a 47.388-second native run, complete required artifacts and passed
cleanup. Delegation was interrupted by a runner-host shutdown at
15:19:23 UTC; all later evidence-upload steps were skipped. Its private
archive is absent, so behavior, usage and cost remain unverified. |
|
[41080065077](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41080065077),
`0a6e1140` | Delegation only | Passed on the final commit in 240.786
seconds. All 14 product checks plus browser readback passed; exact
private identity, current worker output, Done state, correlated
source-chat reply, required screenshot and cleanup verified. The three
native runs took 42–60 seconds each. Passing control was not repeated.
One-cell workflow and report enforcement passed. |

The completed delegation in `41073708150` passed all 14 product checks
plus browser readback in 222.593 seconds. Morgan saved the current
two-sentence announcement, the task reached Done, and the CEO
automatically delivered that saved text to the original chat. Its three
successful native runs took 49.117, 40.060 and 39.107 seconds. The
failed required screenshot remains a failed result in that measurement.

All live operations use explicit IDs, concurrency one, no automatic
retries, the unchanged 120-second per-run cap, and scoped private
evidence retention bound to the exact workflow, target, original run,
selector and launcher digest. These narrow measurements do not qualify
the full catalog or establish repeated-run reliability.

The broad local support suite passed 5,139 tests, with two skipped. Two
database tests hit exhausted host semaphore capacity after the installed
Postgres package's missing library symlinks were repaired. Their recheck
reported `could not create semaphores: No space left on device`. No host
IPC resources or kernel settings were changed. The corresponding full CI
tests passed on a fresh host.

## Risks

- A broad cancellation exception could hide failed work. This exception
requires the dispatch gate's exact receipt, a null start time, the
expected company and prior owner, and the actual reassigned task.
Started and unproved cancellations still fail. Backlog creation permits
no task wake.
- New manual OpenCode cells can spend provider money only when
explicitly selected. Default scheduled selection is unchanged.
- This changes eval interpretation and evidence collection. It does not
change product scheduling or task ownership.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with code execution and tool use. The exact
model ID and context-window size are not exposed to this session.
