## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work. > - When an agent's selected AI account is unavailable, the issue thread shows a `connection_intent` card. A person must reconnect the account or pick another connection. > - If the issue assignment changes while that card is still pending, the server expires it. This is the ownership-change path in `expireConnectionIntentsForOwnershipChange`. > - The expired card showed the reason "The task assignment changed". That text is wrong in two ways. It does not say that the connection request was never answered, and it does not say the connection is still missing. > - Worse, the reason never reached the screen at all: the expired branch of the card hard-codes "This request is no longer active.", so any guidance the server stores is discarded. My first round of this PR claimed the opposite, which was incorrect — the UI change is required for the fix to be visible. > - Issue #14040 reported the symptom: users saw a run fail with "assignment" blame and no hint that a connection needed attention. It happened on both `claude_local` and `codex_local` agents, so the message — not one adapter — is the defect. > - This pull request therefore fixes both ends: the server stores a sentence that names what happened and what to do next, per kind of request, and the card prints the stored reason instead of a generic string. > - The issue asks for a larger behavior change (hold reassignment until the card resolves). That needs a product discussion, so this PR keeps the scope to the message and where it is displayed. > - The benefit is that the card tells the truth: the blocker is the connection, not the assignment, and it says so on screen. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description - Fixes: #14040 ## What Changed - `server/src/services/issue-thread-interactions.ts`: `expireConnectionIntentsForOwnershipChange` now selects each pending row's payload before expiring it and writes a per-request reason: "The task was reassigned before the connection request was answered, so the AI account is still not connected. Reconnect it or choose an available connection." for AI-account intents, and the same sentence naming "the `<serviceName>` connection" for tool intents. The subject is chosen from `payload.purpose === "ai"`, falling back to "the requested connection" for a payload that carries neither, because this one path expires both kinds and the recovery step differs. - `ui/src/features/connections/ConnectionIntentInteractionBody.tsx`: the expired branch now renders `interaction.result?.reason` and keeps "This request is no longer active." only as the fallback for results stored before this change. The `superseded` outcome keeps its own wording. This component is the shared body for both the compact task card and the full thread card, so both views get the reason. - `server/src/__tests__/issues-service.test.ts`: the expiry test now expires a tool (`Notion`) and an AI (`claude_local`) intent in the same run and asserts both stored reasons, so neither wording can regress into the other. - `ui/src/features/connections/ConnectionIntentInteractionBody.test.tsx`: new test renders an expired card whose result carries a reason and asserts the reason is on screen and the generic fallback string is not. ## Verification - `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/issues-service.test.ts ui/src/features/connections/ConnectionIntentInteractionBody.test.tsx` — 151/151 passed (127 server, 24 UI; 33.4s, Node 22.22.2, local). My first revision of this body cited 168 for the same set; that count came from a run on the wrong branch, and 151 is what this command prints on `fix/connection-intent-expiry-reason`. - The pinned server test drives the real path: it inserts pending `connection_intent` rows plus a live `toolOauthStates` row, reassigns the issue through `svc.update(...)`, then asserts both expired reasons and the deleted OAuth state row. - Mutation checks: forcing the AI subject for every row makes the expiry test fail on the tool-row assertion (`1 failed | 126 skipped`, `expected [ { …29 fields } ] to deeply equal [ ObjectContaining{…} ]`), and deleting the `result.reason` branch in the card fails exactly `shows the stored reason on an expired request` (`1 failed | 23 passed`). Both revert clean. The reverse wording mutation (tool subject forced onto AI rows) was not run, so that half of the test is pinned by its assertion rather than by a demonstrated mutation. - No schema, wire-format, or payload change. Only the free-text `result.reason` value differs and the card now reads the field it was already given. ## Risks - Low risk. The value is display text on a terminal interaction outcome. No code parses the old string, and no stored data is migrated; cards that expired before this change keep their old text and now render it as the stored reason they carry. - The deeper request in #14040 (do not expire a pending `connection_intent` on reassignment) is intentionally out of scope here and needs a maintainer decision. ## Model Used - Anthropic Claude (Opus 4.x, agentic CLI coding assistant with file edit and shell tool use) assisted with the code change, the test updates, and this PR text. A human reviewed the diff and the issue context before submission. ## 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 - [ ] All Paperclip CI gates are green - [ ] Greptile is 5/5 with no open P2s, recommendations, or follow-ups - [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before requesting merge

What gets published
The npm package contains the production build under dist/. It does not ship the UI source tree or workspace-only dependencies.

Typical use
Install the package, then serve or copy the built files from node_modules/@paperclipai/ui/dist.
Editor dependency identity
Keep the root and workspace overrides for @codemirror/state,
@codemirror/view, and @lezer/common aligned. CodeMirror requires shared
extension identity, while Lezer parsers and syntax highlighters require shared
NodeProp IDs. Multiple Lezer copies can crash code-block highlighting with
tags is not iterable. src/lib/codemirror-single-instance.test.ts checks the
installed dependency graph and highlights sample code through the editor's real
language dependencies. GitHub Actions owns regeneration of pnpm-lock.yaml.
