DottaandPaperclip ebed7f5237 test(evals): protect Antigravity setup and two-turn delivery (#18190)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages agents and their work.
> - A provider integration must work through ordinary agent setup and
task controls.
> - The recorded Antigravity walkthrough exposed setup, delivery, and
continuation failures.
> - A repeatable check must verify real work and retain failed attempts.
> - This pull request converts all 47 recorded steps into one fixed
Product E2E journey.
> - Maintainers can rerun the case and inspect independent delivery,
cleanup, and accounting evidence.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Builds on merged #18187, #18188, and #18189, and consumes the shared
repairs from merged #18230 and the equivalent manual-policy declaration
from #18222. Refs #18214 for the CI task wrapper. Refs #12503 and #14938
for related legacy adapter work.

**Agent or provider**

Google Antigravity native Runner with a saved managed Google
subscription and the exact Low model.

**Why this adapter is useful**

A user must be able to add an agent, connect its account, and receive
real task results across a follow-up. Picker visibility alone is
insufficient.

**How the agent is invoked**

A fixed Playwright driver uses ordinary product controls. The agent runs
through native ACP. Independent checks use public APIs, actual
downloads, owned process observations, and native lifetime fences.

## What Changed

- Register one explicit-only case:
`antigravity-agent-journey.runner-antigravity.local.saved-subscription-two-turn`.
- Map all 47 source steps and declare saved-account prerequisites,
finite limits, and same-host macOS ARM64 scope.
- Create an agent through the ordinary picker, connect the saved
account, select Low, run Test, and wait for readiness. Save an
instruction marker, deliver a file, and update it through an ordinary
follow-up.
- Require each run's visible completed file activity, exact downloaded
bytes, committed Done result, same tagged conversation, distinct
physical owner birth, released lease, and free native fences. Verify
reload persistence.
- Stop failed native runs that still own a retry. Replay an existing
Stop with its durable request identity and wait for the matching audited
acknowledgement. A terminal reservation without a native intent remains
unconfirmed.
- Keep private evidence in the existing result, report, dashboard, and
accounting pipeline. Retain the paused QA agent and financial history
while preserving the shared account and budget policies.
- Journal only the ordinary wizard's future ID, target, name, intended
harness and expected creator before forwarding its POST unchanged. Bind
the response and interrupted recovery to exact identity reads; a pending
404 stays unconfirmed.
- Serialize private resource snapshots through temporary-file fsync,
atomic rename and directory fsync. Abort forwarding on storage failure
and preserve legacy receipts. If later journal or diagnostic writes
fail, retain the primary error, always close the browser, and attempt
the ordinary failed report.
- Add production-component browser controls and harden task-menu
readiness, alias selection, scroll restoration, failure packaging, and
one hermetic auth-test budget.
- Wait for the existing GitHub recovery fixture to register its next
deadline before asserting the original range; preserve its
nested-transaction and zero-request checks. In the decision-expiry
fixture, verify the exact saved expiry separately from the earlier
global wake of another queue.

## Verification

- Fresh registered acceptance passed on eval source
`9060f3cd01b7c3445ecdf703d72e9cf30fe42b59` and merged serving product
`61bd4ac6919c2309f766a25e62273b074cee3261`. It completed ordinary setup
and two turns with native `.5` and `gemini-3.8-flash-low`. All 16
matchers, 14 checkpoints, and cleanup passed in **165,613 ms**. Actual
downloads were **61 bytes** and **119 bytes**. Both turns passed their
own run-bound browser activity checks and reload persistence.
- Independent read-back confirms Done, a paused retained agent, the same
connected saved default account, and no active owned run. Both accepted
results have the same full tagged conversation and distinct primary
process births. All 21 observed processes retired; both leases released
and all three native fences were free after each turn. The selected `.5`
checkpoints also showed equal agent/backend session IDs; this is an
observed case requirement, not a generic ACP invariant.
- Receipts report 339,273 input tokens, 7,224 output tokens, and 202,846
cached input tokens. Subscription prices are unavailable. Billing
coverage remains incomplete, not free.
- The normal report CLI passed. All 310 files from nine original
attempts and two separate recoveries retained their hashes. The twelve
current screenshots are byte-identical, and 194 local report links are
contained and valid. The eight earlier reports were copied without
regeneration.
- Delivery source `1bf4fb04df04710b82844b3c9355767f46b5f68f` branches
from `d3f2a60e795fc60d64c8b19d1eed4d48657d5492` and merges cleanly with
current master `1d571de5f9f886d66e520800baec8fc2f67d0948`. All 41 prior
`c8b332` authored file blobs remain identical; the 42nd path is the
decision-expiry fixture contract correction. Creation ownership, the
strict durable writer, and the ordinary successful workflow remain
unchanged. Of 43 measured file blobs, 30 remain identical. The
Antigravity oracle, artifact, billing and report gates and its
suite-specific validation block remain unchanged. The actual retained
agent matches its original creator; its original request `setupId` was
not captured and is not reconstructed.
- Later master changes include model-visible workspace guidance and
rejected-terminal-report handling. Their bounded source assessment is
separate: the first actual finish failed, then a same-turn replacement
was accepted and committed. Later read-only results match both original
native-result hashes, and the complete event catalogs have no
`session.failed` event. Master #18228 also expands detection of explicit
JSON file requests. The measured create/update-and-attach `.txt` task
already required publication under both parsers; the publication
validation gate itself is unchanged. Master #18240 changes remote
workspace cache staging and adds an OpenCode index refresh. The selected
local lane returns before those paths. Master #18213 adds optional
numeric turn timing and trace boundaries. Its selected Antigravity
model, text, IDs, result and retirement semantics remain unchanged in
the bounded source review. Local diagnostic rows and awaits can change
event ordinals and latency; the oracle checks relative semantic order.
Collector coverage and latency improvement remain outside this proof.
This does not claim that the whole current runtime is byte-identical to
serving `61bd`, or relabel the measured result as a new run.
- The adopted upstream cache controls passed 3/3 with pinned real Turbo.
Forced work disables local and remote reads and writes; ordinary work
reuses local results. The original genuine-pnpm/Turbo controls remain
historical to `9060`'s earlier write-only policy. The duplicate cache
patch is superseded by #18230. Its qualification-only pnpm addition is
removed because the adopted upstream controls do not require it.
- The E2E typecheck, map checks and 277-control replay are carried from
the unchanged eval source paths. That replay passed, including the 183
Antigravity controls, catalog/connection checks and the separate
product-journey validator. The carried creation controls include 91
config/recovery cases. The final launcher suite passed 19/19, including
five real campaign finalization fault cases; the report suite passed
7/7. These final checks did not rerun the earlier 277-control group. The
canonical production-component browser spec passed in 27.4 s under its
unchanged 60 s limit before the replay. Four paused-composer cases and
the product base's build/typecheck plus 376 focused regressions were
verified earlier.
- The shipped wizard and actual API client cover persistence before
forwarding, lost response JSON, foreign/malformed requests, wrong
response identity/creator and cleanup-error preservation. Real
filesystem controls failed 5/5 before the writer repair and passed 5/5
afterward, preserving the old journal on partial-write, temporary-file
sync and rename faults. Three persistent-sync campaign controls failed
before the finalization repair and passed afterward. All five final
campaign fault cases preserve the primary failure, cleanup failure,
usage and failed report while attempting browser closure. The strict
journal still blocks the next mutation. These are provider-free
ownership controls; the Google task proof remains the original `9060` →
`61bd` acceptance.
- The decision restart check passed in the local 20-case fixture run. A
current-source real-PostgreSQL rollback control reproduced the exact
90,000 ms earlier global wake: the old equality rejected it, while the
exact durable expiry and new future-wake bound passed. The original 60 s
open-state, exact-timestamp, continuation and quiet checks remain. The
broader local run was **FAILED: 19 passed / 1 failed**, with a 15 s
timeout and a 30 s cleanup timeout in an unchanged timestamp-pagination
case. That case passed in canonical `c8b332` CI; the local timeout cause
remains inconclusive. An extra local server typecheck failed against
stale cached Runner declarations; it did not check this excluded test
file. Both limits remain recorded for fresh canonical CI.
- A broader local GitHub recovery group passed 21/22. Its unchanged
pagination case observed an unexpected config request; the log does not
establish the cause. That result remains retained, and fresh
current-head CI is the final broader gate.

- Exact delivery-head CI completed with 55 successes, two skips, and one
optional neutral review. Required `ci / verify` and `ci / e2e`, build,
typecheck, and Runner checks passed. Fresh Greptile is 5/5 with zero
unresolved threads. Optional Paperclip is neutral 4/5; its carried
recommendations are dispositioned against the public Stop contract and
selected live identity evidence.

Seven earlier converted attempts retain their failed grades and partial
evidence. Historical Paid8 and its later read-only per-run UI
observation remain separate from the fresh acceptance above. Unknown
prices and the older partial startup accounting remain explicit. Full
lineage and raw evidence remain private in the normal report bundle.

## Risks

- This case requires an authorized saved personal default Google
subscription and finite operator candidate admission. It does not test
fresh OAuth or establish global qualification.
- The physical observer supports a same-host loopback macOS ARM64
target. Cloud, Linux, and other models remain outside this case.
- A known-cost stop cannot cap missing prices or in-flight subscription
charges. Existing operator policies remain unchanged.
- Raw account/native identities stay private. Missing retirement proof
keeps resources retained. The selected cleanup mode does not test agent
purge.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex (GPT-6). The host did not expose the exact model revision
or context limit. The model used tools for code edits, tests, browser
automation, and review.

# Hiring, configuration, and organization
Operators hire agents, configure their identity and instructions, assign reporting relationships, and manage their lifecycle. Built-in agents have their own setup and lifecycle constraints.
Feature ID: `agents`.
Implementation: [hiring](../../ui/src/pages/NewAgent.tsx), [configuration](../../ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.tsx), [organization](../../ui/src/pages/OrgChart.tsx).
Agent access: [companion](../agent-access-map/agents.md).
## Sub-features
- `hire`: `agents/hire` — choose identity, harness, model, and required account settings; edit
reporting relationships through the agent configuration afterward.
- `grok-bot`: `agents/grok-bot` — experimental existing-Bot agent setup through remote OAuth, routine credentials, and an authenticated two-way challenge; current contact, stop and explicit recovery.
- `instructions`: `agents/instructions` — edit agent configuration and instruction files with durable revisions.
- `organization`: `agents/organization` — inspect and change reporting relationships through supported controls.
- `primary-agent`: `agents/primary-agent` — choose a personal primary agent for the company, confirm replacement, and inspect its roster/sidebar and task/chat defaults.
- `lifecycle`: `agents/lifecycle` — pause/resume or retire an agent while preserving history.
- `built-in`: `agents/built-in` — configure required agents without treating them as ordinary removable hires.
- `api-keys`: `agents/api-keys` — create and inspect named agent credentials, copy a new token once, and revoke it without changing agent identity.
- `managed-agent-setup`: `agents/managed-agent-setup` — probe, create, or adopt a qualified Anthropic managed-agent profile with pinned provider resources and retention acknowledgement.
## How to get to it (user POV)
### `hire-agent`
Use New agent from the roster or `/agents/new`.
Submitting the name creates an inactive record before adapter selection or account setup.
A name-only draft returns to adapter selection when reopened.
Save & exit keeps its configuration; Finish setup on the agent returns to the
same record. Open an unfinished agent from the roster to reach its header.
The header shows Finish setup instead of Run or Resume, including during computer
preparation and verification. Terminating agents cannot reopen setup. Final
submission requests approval when required, then follows the existing preparation
and verification lifecycle.
The confirmation shows **Finishing agent setup** until the foreground detail
query observes actual readiness. **Assign a Task** then hands that current
record to the composer, so its status does not come from an older paused draft.
Manual/import pauses and required hire approval remain blocking states.
When the native Runner adapter is available, **Google Antigravity** appears in the ordinary
adapter picker. Before runtime acceptance, its card says **Not available yet**.
Selecting it opens Google account setup and model configuration without saving
an unqualified native execution configuration. The existing inactive draft stays
held; Test and Finish remain unavailable, and the page says model and connection settings are not
saved. The selected adapter is retained with the draft: **Back to agents**, reload,
and **Finish setup** return to the same Google setup. Pending roster rows identify
Google Antigravity without implying a configured connection or runnable model.
**Change adapter** returns to the picker with the saved choice selected and allows
switching that same held draft to another supported adapter.
Verify discovery, Google-specific setup, draft preservation and the
disabled actions separately from a successful Antigravity hire or task run.
On an isolated host with a current operator candidate authorization, company-scoped
adapter inventory can expose **Candidate** with one exact model. That company can
connect, save, reopen, Test and Finish setup while the global release stays pending.
Test verifies native account/model admission and cleanup without a model turn.
Other companies, remote targets, expired authority and other models stay blocked.
Verify this scoped path separately from production qualification and real task acceptance.
The explicit-only [Antigravity agent journey](../../tests/runner-e2e/ANTIGRAVITY-AGENT-JOURNEY.md)
protects the ordinary roster/picker path, saved personal Google subscription,
native Test, actual ready handoff, Instructions-only file marker, task and
same-task follow-up. Its fixed driver starts from the dashboard and creates the
new agent through visible controls. The current runnable cell attaches to a
self-hosted target with the admitted local macOS ARM64 candidate and exact low
model. Saved-account reuse does not qualify fresh OAuth, other platforms or
global provider release; registration and synthetic controls are separate from
the retained exploratory and fresh fixed-driver results.
Agent-owned plugin environments prepare the saved draft in the background when
their driver declares `requiresAgent`. The draft waits in `verifying` with its
setup hold until hiring finishes. Changing environments keeps the selected
account and Configure step, saves the selection, and invalidates its test.
Preparation and failed-save retries remain visible without reconnecting.
Companies requiring hire approval save the account with pending verification;
resource allocation waits for approval.
### `agent-configuration`
Open `/agents/:agentId` and the configuration/instruction surfaces it exposes.
Open **Advanced** at `/agents/:agentId/advanced` for the compact agent
[YAML configuration](../../doc/agent-configuration-yaml.md). Edit a name, budget,
runtime setting, and adapter key; save, reload, and check the ordinary settings
and Revisions. Try malformed YAML, an unknown field, omitted settings, a removed adapter key,
and a concurrent settings edit. Errors must retain the draft; stale saves return
a conflict. Unchanged secret markers must preserve their stored values. Navigating
away with a draft must show the existing unsaved-change guard. **Reload saved**
discards the draft. Also edit instruction text, skill pins, direct tool installs,
channel settings/resources, permissions/trust/project boundaries, secret operations,
and API key operations. Verify each result in its owning tab. Revision restore is
an isolated save. Default YAML excludes catalogs, inherited definitions, history, and instruction
contents. Verify profile-key references, named instruction-file patches (`null`
deletes one file), omitted-setting preservation, and explicit clears. Adding
unrelated company profiles must not grow this agent’s YAML. Inherited access and
history remain in their owning tabs. An
interrupted multi-resource save must report partial progress, preserve returned
one-time keys, and require reload before another save. Domain APIs retain their
existing authorization; a multi-resource save is not atomic.
For a low-trust agent, open **Permissions / Trust → Allowed projects**. An operator
with agent-management permission can select additional projects and explicitly
save them. Existing projects and other containment restrictions remain intact.
Cancel discards the draft; a failed save retains it. Reload to verify persistence.
This does not start or retry a task.
In `/agents/all`, select roster checkboxes and choose **Edit connection & model**.
A mixed selection offers one action per harness. Each field is opt-in. The editor
previews each changed value and excludes agents already at the target value.
Models must be compatible with every selected connection. Failed writes show
per-agent errors; Retry touches only the remaining agents. Connection pools and
externally managed agents are not editable through this shortcut.
Verify connection-only, model-only, both fields, mixed-harness selection, hidden
selections, no-op counts, incompatible models, partial failure and retry. Reload
the roster and compare stored settings, including unrelated heartbeat and adapter
fields. A concurrent configuration edit must return a conflict. Shared runtime
validation, access checks, revisions and audit logging still apply. Live runs
retain their existing settings; model changes can reset saved sessions. Connection
adoption can require an explicit reset of existing sessions.
### `organization`
Use the roster’s organization view; `/org` redirects to the roster in the streamlined shell.
### `personal-primary-agent`
Open an agent profile and choose **Set as my primary**. Inspect its crown on the
profile/roster and its position in the Agents sidebar, then open a new task or Chat.
### `agent-api-keys`
Open `/agents/:agentId/api-keys` → **API Keys** with an authenticated person who can manage agents. The operator CLI also supports `paperclipai token agent create -C <company-id> --agent <agent-id> --name <label>`, `token agent list -C <company-id> --agent <agent-id>`, and `token agent revoke <key-id> -C <company-id> --agent <agent-id>`.
### `managed-agent-cli`
Use the operator command `paperclipai managed-agent setup --company-id <company-id> --profile-key <key> --display-name <name> --api-key-secret-id <company-secret-id> --acknowledge-retention --json`. Supply ANTHROPIC_API_KEY through the process environment. Use `--agent-id`, `--agent-version`, and `--environment-id` to adopt resources, or `--probe` for provider reads without profile persistence. The optional session-list cost ceiling is `--max-session-list-cost-usd`.
## Driving it with Playwright and the Paperclip CLI
Preconditions: follow the [baseline](./README.md#before-driving-a-journey). Use a disposable company and supported adapter; hiring may require a formal approval.
### `hire-agent`
Automated: [new agent page](../../ui/src/pages/NewAgent.test.tsx) and [configuration form](../../ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.render.test.tsx) cover mocked UI behavior.
For an agent-owned plugin environment, verify preparation before connecting,
same-agent probes, account preservation after an environment change, failed
selection-save retry, and switching back while the computer stops. Confirm the
setup hold still blocks ordinary work and API key creation before finishing.
Start through the name/adapter dialog with a managed-only or forced Kubernetes
policy and a draft that inherits its environment. Once preparation completes,
confirm the auth choices, Advanced gateway, and saved subscription remain usable.
The [setup lifecycle tests](../../server/src/modules/agent-lifecycle/__tests__/setup.test.ts)
exercise durable transitions with synthetic plugin resources; they do not prove
live VM provisioning.
Manual: Hire an agent with a distinct name and role. Complete any required approval, reload the roster, and open its configuration. Confirm manager, adapter, and model persisted; run a small task to prove execution readiness.
For a new Codex hire, choose the Codex harness. Automatic selection uses Paperclip
Runner on a qualified selected target; Advanced offers an explicit Legacy runner
override. Record the persisted runner and
underlying harness, rather than treating the displayed Codex name as execution
proof. See [runtime selection and validation](./runs-adapters.md#adapter-setup)
and [target qualification](./execution-environments.md#environment-settings).
Repeat with an explicit Legacy Codex hire. If approval is required, compare its
reviewed execution configuration before and after restart and activation; approval
must retain the reviewed runner. Test an existing Legacy and native agent through
an unrelated edit, reload and restart: neither is automatically upgraded.
Creation defaults also apply to API/CLI hires, built-ins, plugins and new team
imports. Exports preserve resolved execution choices; a package without a runner
choice uses the new-agent default, while updating an existing same-harness agent
preserves its execution. For a native Codex import, edit a model or account binding
and verify unchanged runtime settings survive; an explicit clear must stay cleared.
Use the [portability recipe](./companies.md) for package preparation and boundaries.
For Claude Code on qualified macOS or GNU/Linux x64/ARM64, submit without a
runner override and inspect
saved configuration: `paperclip_runner`, `provider: acpx`, `acpxAgent: claude`,
and ordinary model `claude-opus-5-5`. The Advanced runner selector can explicitly
choose Legacy. Keep explicit model/account choices and saved runners on edits.
Verify useful output and a follow-up after a controller restart; setup success
alone does not establish session continuity. Unsupported architectures/libc and unknown environment qualification retain
Legacy. Darwin SSH also defaults to Legacy until automatic matching assets are
qualified; explicit matching native assets and saved native configurations remain
supported. Linux ARM64 cloud-image production remains deferred.
The current hiring wizard assigns the first hire CEO and subsequent hires
General reporting to the CEO. Change manager/role afterward through supported
configuration. Process/HTTP agents can be created through API/CLI but are excluded
from the hiring picker; API fixture creation does not prove this UI journey.
### `agent-configuration`
Automated: [instruction service](../../server/src/__tests__/agent-instructions-service.test.ts) and [instruction revisions](../../server/src/__tests__/agent-instruction-revisions.test.ts) cover file/revision contracts.
The [AI account field regression](../../ui/src/components/ai-connections/AiConnectionField.test.tsx)
checks duplicate provider names, account identity in choices and adoption confirmation,
the exact selected grant, and disabled unavailable accounts with authorized metadata fixtures.
Manually compare a personal API key and shared subscription with the same name in
Harness / Runtime. Confirm their method, scope and available identity before saving.
Reload the saved choice and verify the next eligible task uses it; labels alone
do not establish credential validity or change account access.
Manual: Save a harmless instruction edit, reload, and verify its revision and effect in the next eligible run. Pause and resume the disposable agent; confirm pause prevents new work and does not erase previous runs.
For failed setup, use an unavailable model or invalid command on a disposable agent.
Confirm the profile names the failed verification step and gives a relevant action.
Check that it explains automatic retry and offers **Retry now**. Fix the configuration,
retry, and reload; the failure must disappear only after readiness commits.
Provider output and credentials must not appear in the lifecycle message.
An explicit runner change is a configuration change, with normal revisions and
session invalidation. Obsolete Claude tuning options (including maxTurnsPerRun) are ignored with a field-specific warning;
permission, network, filesystem and command incompatibilities still produce an error.
Selecting another runner must not silently discard security settings or change an active run's
recorded execution. Keep runner choice in Advanced and verify the next eligible
run separately from historical transcripts.
Existing legacy Claude, Codex, and Grok Build agents on qualified default environments, or
probe-capable Daytona snapshots / immutable sandbox images, show **Upgrade runner** above their configuration. Verify a company owner with `agents:configure` and no instance-admin role can qualify the saved computer and upgrade. A caller without configuration permission must be denied before a probe starts. Exercise that action with
pending edits and an environment-variable draft. An unsaved change to a different
effective computer must disable the action and explain that the computer change
must be saved first; restoring the saved target must re-enable it. Reopen the page and compare the
saved harness, model, account bindings, instructions, and run policy. Check a
Grok upgrade with an unset or `grok-build` model: it must use `grok-4.7`.
Compare effective search policy before and after, including the implicit disabled
default and explicit enabled search. Verify task model and effort changes use the
Grok catalog and reach execution while retaining the account and search policy. Check a
saved `maxTurnsPerRun: 1000`: upgrade must warn and remove it. Test an initially
unqualified Daytona Paperclip Computer: click must probe, record qualification,
refresh availability, and only then save. A failed probe or changed selection must
leave the agent on Legacy. Check a rejected permission setting, repair it, and retry. Verify a real task before
and after migration, including its output, preserved history, and fresh session.
The notice must stay absent for native agents, other harnesses, and unsupported
targets. Discovery failure must not imply that an upgrade is available.
Navigate to another agent while an upgrade is pending. Its result must stay with
the original agent, without showing success on the new page or redirecting back.
Focused coverage: [save receipt](../../ui/src/pages/AgentRunnerUpgrade.test.tsx)
and [configuration form](../../ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.render.test.tsx).
For an existing native agent on a Daytona snapshot or immutable sandbox image,
use **Test** in its saved Harness or Runtime configuration after a managed
computer update. This action qualifies the saved computer under the existing
agent configuration permission before testing the runtime. A current proof must
remain unchanged. A missing proof requires a real successful probe and verified
cleanup. Failed qualification must stop the runtime test. Unsaved configuration
or a different computer must not qualify a draft target. A company owner must not
need instance-admin permission, and the generic environment probe must remain
restricted. Existing runs retain their recorded allocation and snapshot binding.
Storybook: [Runner upgrade](../../ui/storybook/stories/agents/codex-runner/upgrade.stories.tsx)
mounts the production page and shell with mutable HTTP fixtures for both harnesses,
pending, failure/retry, incompatible settings, repair, native/unsupported states,
and mobile/light presentation. Fixture success does not establish real migration
or provider execution.
### `organization`
Automated: [org chart](../../ui/src/pages/OrgChart.test.tsx) is component evidence. Built-in setup also has [configuration modal tests](../../ui/src/components/ConfigureBuiltInAgentModal.test.tsx).
Manual: Inspect a manager and report, change the relationship through the offered controls, and reload both views. Exercise a rejected invalid relationship. Configure a built-in agent and verify it retains its required identity and restrictions.
### `personal-primary-agent`
Automated: [primary-agent context](../../ui/src/context/PrimaryAgentProvider.test.tsx)
and [primary-agent routes](../../server/src/__tests__/primary-agent.test.ts)
cover selection, company/user scope, and request contracts.
Manual: Select an available agent, reload, and inspect the retained personal choice.
Replace it and verify confirmation is required. Leave or terminate the selected
agent through permitted controls and inspect the unavailable/cleared state.
Switch company/user to check isolation. Open a task and Chat with a
valid draft or recent selection; verify those explicit choices take precedence
over the primary fallback. Opening Chat must not start execution.
### `agent-api-keys`
Automated: [CLI token tests](../../cli/src/__tests__/token.test.ts) mock create/list/revoke. [Cross-tenant routes](../../server/src/__tests__/agent-cross-tenant-authz-routes.test.ts), [agent permissions](../../server/src/__tests__/agent-permissions-routes.test.ts), and [authentication middleware](../../server/src/__tests__/agent-auth-middleware.test.ts) cover company/key ownership, management permission, responsible-user binding, and denial. They do not prove a browser-created key working against a live instance.
Manual: As an authenticated person with agents:create, create a named key for an eligible disposable agent and copy it privately from the once-only display. Make a harmless same-company agent request with that bearer, then reload the Keys tab and verify only metadata remains. Revoke the key through UI or CLI, reload, and retry the exact same bearer: authentication must fail. Inspect key-created/key-revoked activity without token values. Test a board person lacking agent-management permission, an agent caller, another company’s agent, a different agent’s key ID, and a pending-approval/terminated target. A created key without a real responsible-user binding is a failed acceptance prerequisite, not a working credential.
Sources: [Keys tab](../../ui/src/pages/AgentDetail.tsx), [key routes](../../server/src/routes/agents.ts), [key service](../../server/src/services/agents.ts), [authentication](../../server/src/middleware/auth.ts), and [CLI token commands](../../cli/src/commands/client/token.ts).
### `managed-agent-cli`
Automated: [Managed-agent CLI](../../cli/src/__tests__/managed-agent.test.ts) uses mocked provider/API responses. [Profile route authorization](../../server/src/__tests__/managed-agent-profile-routes-authz.test.ts) and [remote profiles](../../server/src/services/remote-agent-profiles.test.ts) cover actor/company checks and qualification. They do not establish provider provisioning or a useful managed task.
Manual: Start with known adopted provider IDs in an authorized disposable provider account. Run --probe and verify only provider reads: no resources are created and no Paperclip profile is written. Reject unsafe tools/network/package configuration, an unsupported model, duplicate profile matches, a missing retention acknowledgement, and a malformed secret UUID. During persistence, reject missing, inactive, or foreign-company secret references. Then create or adopt a locked profile in a disposable company; inspect its pinned version, model, environment, retention attestation, and cost ceiling through the profile API. Repeat setup and verify resource reuse. Reject viewer/agent writes and foreign-company references. Qualify useful task execution separately through the runtime recipe; a successful probe is not execution acceptance.

## Gotchas
- Managed-agent probing is read-only at the provider and does not persist a Paperclip profile. The explicit retention acknowledgement remains required even for probe.
- Agent keys, human CLI tokens, and personal assistant OAuth grants are different credentials. Never include a key’s plaintext token in screenshots, logs, or verification artifacts.
- A roster entry is not proof of an authenticated or invokable adapter.
- Pending hires may live in approval/task surfaces rather than the active roster.
- Skill and tool grants are separate: see [skills](./skills.md) and [app permissions](./app-permissions.md).
- A personal primary agent is a per-user/company preference. It does not change
reporting lines, stars, permissions, or another person's primary agent.
### `connect-grok-bot`
Choose **Invite an external agent → Grok Bot**, identify the Bot by its desktop name, connect its remote MCP plugin, configure a webhook-only routine, and verify delivery plus authenticated reply. Save & exit resumes the same agent. Keep pairing codes in browser authorization and routine credentials in Paperclip’s fields. A working Bot web URL is not required.
Prerequisites: authenticated public HTTPS, Assistant connections (MCP), Paperclip Runner and Grok Bot experimental settings. Cloud uses its normal managed Runner environment. Provider usage is unknown. Routine uncertainty blocks new assignments until explicit inspection and recovery; stopping work revokes Paperclip authority without confirming remote termination.
Evidence: source implementation and focused protocol tests; real provider assigned/proactive workflows and deployed managed acceptance remain release gates.
### Documentation scope: Agents, organization, and runtime setup
Per-harness/model/account capabilities, every instruction-file error, and complete built-in-agent lifecycle variants remain separate qualification matrices.
