## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work. > - Managed GitHub connections resolve a responsible user's or dedicated agent's identity into an audited, run-scoped credential projection. > - An enrolled instance could retain a hidden managed setup method after Cloud stopped advertising it, producing a blank, disabled setup step. > - Native runner processes also dropped the resolved GitHub projection before the provider shell, so `gh` and Git could not use the selected identity in Daytona. > - Daytona already provides the outer isolation boundary. Applying Codex's inner Linux sandbox there both duplicated containment and failed because nested user namespaces are unavailable. > - This change repairs setup fallback, carries only the bounded GitHub projection across each runner boundary, and allows only a controller-selected managed sandbox transport to act as the outer sandbox. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description **What happened?** An enrolled self-hosted instance could show a blank GitHub setup step when its managed profile was unavailable. Separately, a native Codex run in Daytona could resolve a managed GitHub connection on the Paperclip host but lose it before the provider shell. Once projected, Codex's nested sandbox failed before commands could run because Daytona does not expose the user-namespace operation used by the inner sandbox. **Expected behavior** Setup must select an advertised customer method when the managed method is unavailable. A Daytona run must receive the exact managed GitHub identity selected for that run, support `gh` and HTTPS Git, and rely on Daytona as its outer sandbox without weakening local or SSH execution. **Steps to reproduce** 1. Enroll a self-hosted instance while Cloud does not advertise the managed GitHub profile and open GitHub setup. 2. Observe the blank second step and disabled action. 3. Configure a native Codex agent with a Daytona environment and a responsible-user GitHub grant. 4. Run `gh api user` or HTTPS Git from the agent shell. 5. Observe missing GitHub environment projection or nested-sandbox startup failure. **Paperclip version or commit** The setup bug reproduces on `1dceee9a4`; the runner proof was developed from the same branch and verified at the latest head below. **Deployment mode** Self-hosted Paperclip enrolled with Paperclip Cloud, using the Daytona sandbox-provider plugin and native Paperclip runner. ## What Changed - Wait for connector enrollment hydration, retain a hidden managed method only while enrollment is needed, and otherwise select an advertised customer fallback. - Add a single bounded GitHub credential-environment projection for `GH_TOKEN`, `GITHUB_TOKEN`, the process-only Git helper token, GitHub commit identity, and at most 32 controller-generated Git config entries. - Forward that projection through the durable controller, Codex app-server transport, and Rust provider child without placing token values in arguments or config. - Allow Codex shell inheritance only for the exact projected GitHub keys and enable provider network access only when the managed credential exists. - Derive outer-sandbox authority exclusively from a managed `sandbox` transport; strip the same flag from configured, host, local, and SSH environments. - Define a named external-sandbox permission profile that Codex resolves to `dangerFullAccess` for default-mode Daytona turns while plan mode remains read-only. - Add regression tests for setup fallback, credential projection, local/SSH/sandbox authority separation, provider forwarding, and permission-profile selection. ## Verification - `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/pages/apps/AppsConnect.test.tsx` — 96 passed. - `pnpm exec vitest run src/drivers/codex/codex-security-config.test.ts src/drivers/codex/app-server-transport.test.ts src/control-plane/durable-prp-control-plane.test.ts` from `packages/paperclip-runner` — 31 passed. - Focused native-session executor tests — 3 passed. - `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner typecheck` — passed. - `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed. - `cargo test --manifest-path packages/paperclip-runner/runner/Cargo.toml --locked -p paperclip-runner-core --lib` — 194 passed. - Real Codex app-server configuration probe accepted `paperclip-runner-external-sandbox` and reported `sandbox.type=\"dangerFullAccess\"` while using the named profile. - [Signed Daytona image workflow](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/33995270328) built commit `86571f7997e7100e47bd131aac1f1e773112a0ce`; the isolated environment was pinned to `sha256:ecef21105f8de382d75787e59439d936be239b77ae74a31c8ed3a17cde39b023`. - Live isolated Daytona proof passed: the three projected token variables were non-empty and equal; the host-scoped Git credential helper returned the same token without printing it; `gh api user` resolved `cryppadotta`; authenticated `git ls-remote https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip.git HEAD` returned `1dceee9a4e75b13456760bb54c752deb2dba1d79`; no repository mutation occurred. - The persisted 28,476-byte run log contains no GitHub token shape, bearer header, credential-bearing URL, or private-key marker. - Latest-head pull-request CI and reviews provide the remaining full-suite gate. ## Risks - This deliberately gives shell Git and `gh` access to the run's resolved GitHub identity. It is the audited class-3 behavior required by the GitHub connection design and is outside per-tool Ask-first controls. - The credential source is the trusted broker projection, which overwrites configured environment values. The helper is scoped to HTTPS `github.com`, revalidates protocol and host, and never places its token in command arguments, URLs, or files. - Managed Daytona sandboxes become the containment boundary for default-mode provider commands. Local and SSH targets retain the inner Codex workspace sandbox, and plan mode remains read-only everywhere. > For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR.
