## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The server package ships runtime asset trees used by built-in agents
and onboarding templates.
> - A prior server build omitted those source asset trees from `dist`,
allowing a built artifact to differ from runtime expectations.
> - The copy step is now present, but the existing build-gap gate only
checked TypeScript coverage for packages whose build skips `tsc`.
> - This pull request extends that standing gate so source asset files
under the server runtime asset trees must exist at the matching `dist`
paths after build.
> - The benefit is that future server asset additions fail loudly in CI
instead of silently shipping an incomplete `dist`.
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
### What happened?
After a server build, runtime asset files under
`server/src/built-ins/**` and `server/src/onboarding-assets/**` could be
missing from `dist/` with no build failure. The existing build-gap gate
only checked TypeScript coverage for packages that skip `tsc`; it did
not verify that non-TypeScript source assets were copied to `dist`. A
server build that forgot the `cp -R` step, or that added a new asset
tree without updating the copy command, would produce an incomplete
`dist` without any CI signal.
### Expected behavior
After `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server build`, every
non-TypeScript/non-JavaScript source file under `server/src/built-ins/`
and `server/src/onboarding-assets/` must exist at the matching path
under `server/dist/`. If any file is missing, the build-gap gate must
exit non-zero with a diagnostic listing the missing files and the
command to fix them.
### Steps to reproduce
1. Remove a copied runtime asset: `rm
server/dist/built-ins/agents/reflection-coach/AGENTS.md`
2. Run the guard: `node scripts/run-typecheck-build-gaps.mjs
--runtime-assets-only`
3. Before this fix: the command exits 0 and the missing file goes
undetected.
### Paperclip version or commit
Reproduced on `master` at `c36f1a4af` (`@paperclipai/server` 0.3.1).
### Deployment mode
Not deployment-specific — the build-gap check runs in CI on any
checkout.
## What Changed
- Extended `scripts/run-typecheck-build-gaps.mjs` with a source-derived
server runtime asset parity check for non-`.ts`/non-`.js` files under
`server/src/built-ins/**` and `server/src/onboarding-assets/**`.
- Added a guard-only mode, `--runtime-assets-only`, for focused
pass/fail verification after a server build.
- Wired `pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps` to prepare plugin SDK build
deps, build the server package, then run the existing build-gap gate
plus the new asset check.
## Verification
Pass path:
```text
$ pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk ensure-build-deps
> @paperclipai/plugin-sdk@1.0.0 ensure-build-deps .../packages/plugins/sdk
> node ../../../scripts/ensure-plugin-build-deps.mjs
$ pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server build
> @paperclipai/server@0.3.1 build .../server
> tsc && mkdir -p dist/onboarding-assets dist/built-ins && cp -R src/onboarding-assets/. dist/onboarding-assets/ && cp -R src/built-ins/. dist/built-ins/
$ node scripts/run-typecheck-build-gaps.mjs --runtime-assets-only
[typecheck:build-gaps] server runtime assets present in dist: 7 file(s)
```
Regression simulation (guard catches the missing file):
```text
$ rm server/dist/built-ins/agents/reflection-coach/AGENTS.md
$ node scripts/run-typecheck-build-gaps.mjs --runtime-assets-only
[typecheck:build-gaps] Missing server runtime asset(s) in dist:
- source: server/src/built-ins/agents/reflection-coach/AGENTS.md
expected dist: server/dist/built-ins/agents/reflection-coach/AGENTS.md
Run pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server build and ensure source runtime asset trees are copied into dist.
```
Standing gate (full end-to-end):
```text
$ pnpm run typecheck:build-gaps
[typecheck:build-gaps] typechecking 4 workspace(s): paperclipai, @paperclipai/plugin-authoring-smoke-example, @paperclipai/plugin-llm-wiki, @paperclipai/ui
[typecheck:build-gaps] server runtime assets present in dist: 7 file(s)
```
## Risks
Low risk. The check only reads source and dist files during the
build-gap gate. The main tradeoff is that the gate now builds
`@paperclipai/server` so a clean checkout has generated `dist` content
to validate.
## Model Used
OpenAI Codex, GPT-5 based coding agent with repository tool use and
shell execution.
