## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work. > - Native sessions retain execution ownership and action history across turns. > - Task Retry must prove that old execution has stopped before it starts another turn. > - An attempt can inherit its predecessor's identity and fail before it launches a provider. > - The cleanup proof searched under that failed attempt and compared unrelated event sequences. > - This pull request verifies the retained owner and starts one fresh authorized turn. > - Saved results and uncertain action outcomes remain intact. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description **What happened?** Task Retry accepted repeated clicks but kept the canonical request deferred with `executionWait.reason: local_cleanup`. It created no successor, although the retained local worker and provider had stopped. **Expected behavior:** After exact cleanup proof, admit one fresh turn. Preserve the old journal and result. Keep unresolved action outcomes unknown. **Steps to reproduce:** 1. Finish a local native turn with retained cleanup state and a saved result. 2. Let the next attempt inherit its identity and fail with `native_session_cleanup_quarantined` before any launch. 3. Upgrade across a tool-contract change, then click task Retry. 4. The old code requires the failed attempt's stop receipt and journal identity. It also requires the current tool fingerprint and equal sequence numbers across raw and normalized events. Those requirements cannot match the retained owner. **Paperclip version or commit:** Reproduced on `31bf6e4482`. **Deployment mode / installation method:** Authenticated, self-hosted source checkout. **Agent adapter(s) involved:** Native `paperclip_runner`, local Codex app-server. The shared physical-stop proof also covers ACPX. **Database mode:** Embedded PostgreSQL 18.1. **Access context:** Board task Retry. **Node.js version / operating system:** Incident: Node 24.20.0, Linux ARM64. Local verification: macOS ARM64. **Relevant logs or output:** Accepted Retry stays in `deferred_issue_execution`; no new run or provider launch occurs. **Relevant config:** Per-turn local native execution. The old tool contract differs from the current contract. **Additional context:** Related: #19311 prevents the oversized tool result that can lead to retained cleanup. #18217 covers broader cleanup isolation and retained-result maintenance. #19134 admits stopped Runner sources under the current run lease. This patch fixes explicit continuation admission on current master. ## What Changed - Resolve the retained journal's owner under the same company, task, agent, workspace, native session, and runner instance. - Require terminal ownership, settled controllers, released local leases, and exact inherited process birth. Refuse any launch evidence on the failed attempt. - Accept a current host's verified process absence from its exact launch receipt when an older server lacks a stop receipt. A later launch invalidates that observation. - Validate normalized receipts against their own IDs, sequences, and digests. Match ordered provider identities to the independent raw journal. - Keep tool compatibility at the session reuse boundary. Explicit continuation always uses a fresh session. - Bind the stop proof to its exact successor and canonical Retry receipt. Reuse the proven local workspace through normal preparation. Refuse changed bindings, closed or remote workspaces, pending operations, and other live leases. Projectless run-ID placeholders keep the existing fresh-workspace fallback. - Retain journals, results, files, and uncertain action outcomes. Add regression and opt-in live acceptance coverage. - Make the split-handoff browser test wait for both child-completion notices and all run settlement before teardown. Assert the final task set stays unchanged. ## Verification - Red: canonical Retry on the original code accepts one saved intent but creates zero successors and records `local_cleanup`. - Red: distinct raw and normalized event sequences reproduce that wait after owner resolution alone. After admission was repaired, live acceptance then exposed the empty-attempt workspace problem. A PostgreSQL regression also reproduced that wrong workspace selection. - Green at `6684df5e82`: **479 targeted cases**, including 26 new PostgreSQL cases for duplicate clicks, exact process and workspace ownership, controller/lease fences, changed state, and independent receipt integrity. The complete 1,150-test native executor suite passed earlier. - `pnpm -r typecheck` and `pnpm build` pass again at final head `432a52bea8`, including its build stamp. Token gates pass. Master now contains the unrelated directory-fixture type correction found during the first typecheck. - Real authenticated HTTP Retry with Codex `gpt-6.1-sol`, high effort, and per-turn execution passes again at final head `432a52bea8` (93.3 seconds). It preserves the first file line, appends the second once, starts a fresh session in the existing workspace, keeps the retained journal unchanged, commits finalization, and clears task locks. - The strengthened split-handoff browser scenario passes **three consecutive local runs**. Its original CI teardown and one same-head rerun failed when cleanup cancelled an active legacy completion-notification run and hit a PostgreSQL row-lock timeout. The scenario now waits for the complete handoff before cleanup. [Initial failure](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42106466518/job/127523693634), [same-head rerun](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42106466518/job/127531698321). These failures remain part of the verification record. - The local full `pnpm test:run` passed all six chat integration shards. Its obsolete pre-rebase attempt was stopped during the general server phase; no complete local-suite pass is claimed. Full CI, including both required gates, passed at `6684df5e82`. At final head `432a52bea8`, all initial CI groups passed except the unchanged status-card deadline test, whose post-wakeup clock assertion missed its bound by 10 ms. That exact case passed three unchanged local repetitions (16.8/27.0/18.3 seconds); the single isolated shard rerun passed all **2,218 tests** (123 files), with no source changes. [Initial timing failure](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/42114473652/job/127550722187). - Greptile reviewed `6684df5e82` at **5/5**, with no actionable findings. A second reviewer identified the supported projectless placeholder case. A new real PostgreSQL regression reproduced its workspace-binding failure before the one-line fallback correction; all **45 focused cases** now pass, including default environment selection and changed binding/cwd refusal. Greptile reviewed final head `432a52bea8` at **5/5**, with no blocking findings. The second reviewer’s thread is resolved. - The patched Linux build verified the actual retained worker/provider ownership and process absence in a transaction that was rolled back. No retained state was retired or provider started during that pre-deployment check. ## Risks - This changes an execution admission proof. Incorrect ownership could permit a second executor. The proof retains process, controller, lease, scope, journal, and receipt fences, and duplicate admission is tested through the real queue. - Missing or conflicting evidence remains deferred. Windows, remote execution, automatic replacement, and session reuse retain their existing policies. - No database migration or UI change. The original affected task still needs deployment of the fix before recovery can be claimed. ## Model Used - OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, code execution, SSH diagnostics, and live provider testing. This session does not expose the exact backend model build or context-window size. The live test agent uses OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` at high effort. ## Checklist - [x] I have included a thinking path that traces from project context to this change - [x] I have specified the model used (with version and capability details) - [x] I have checked ROADMAP.md and confirmed this PR does not duplicate planned core work - [x] I have searched GitHub for duplicate or related PRs and linked them above - [x] I have either (a) linked existing issues with `Fixes: #` / `Closes #` / `Refs #` OR (b) described the issue in-PR following the relevant issue template - [x] I have not referenced internal/instance-local Paperclip issues or links (only public GitHub `#NNN` / `github.com/paperclipai/paperclip` URLs) - [x] My branch name describes the change (e.g. `docs/...`, `fix/...`) and contains no internal Paperclip ticket id or instance-derived details - [x] I have run tests locally and they pass - [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable - [x] I have updated relevant documentation to reflect my changes - [x] I have considered and documented any risks above - [x] All Paperclip CI gates are green - [x] Greptile is 5/5 with no open P2s, recommendations, or follow-ups - [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before requesting merge --------- Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
