## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work. > - An agent can hand its own task to a person for review. With #20884, a native run that does this keeps running and finishes its turn. > - A restart can land between that hand-off and the end of the same turn. Restart recovery then settles the run as failed and keeps its unsaved sandbox files, so no work is lost. > - Automatic workspace recovery saves those files. But the workspace-repair hold then stayed on the person's task, because the hold only released for a newer agent owner. > - This pull request releases that hold for the person who received the task through the stopped run's own recorded hand-off, once the files are saved. > - The benefit is that the person's task rests in review with no stale "Saved work recovered" hold, and the agent's files are still saved first. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Follow-up to #20884 (merged). It was reviewed there as a known limit: "Restart blocks the person's task". It uses the `resultJson.humanSelfHandoff` record that #20884 added. Related: #19184, which released the same hold for a newer agent owner. **What happened?** A native run handed its own task to a person, and a restart landed before the run finished its turn. Restart recovery settled the run and retained its files. After automatic recovery saved them, the task still had a workspace-repair hold ("Saved work recovered. Send a message to continue."). The person had nothing to do with that run's work, and nothing released the hold. **Expected behavior** The hold protects the workspace until the files are saved. After that, the task rests with the person and has no execution blocker. **Steps to reproduce** 1. A native run records a hand-off to a person, and the task is now `in_review` with that person. 2. A restart settles the run as failed, with its prepared remote workspace retained. 3. Automatic workspace recovery completes. 4. Before this fix, `getExecutionBlocker` still returns the run's workspace-repair hold. ## What Changed - `server/src/services/execution-blocker.ts`: `restoreHoldReleasedForCurrentOwnerPredicate` now also releases a recovered file-preservation hold in one more case. The task must be assigned to a person, and the stopped run's `resultJson.humanSelfHandoff` must name that task and that person. The existing proof is still required: the completed-recovery receipt bound to the action, and a copyback rather than a snapshot-only save. Until the files are saved, the hold stays. - `server/src/services/workspace-recovery-admission.test.ts`: two embedded-Postgres tests. - The hold blocks the person's task before recovery and releases after it. - A hand-off recorded for a different person keeps the hold. - `doc/execution-semantics.md`: one sentence on the restart case. ## Verification - Red: with the `execution-blocker.ts` change removed, `releases a handed-off run's recovered files hold for the person it handed the task to` fails. `getExecutionBlocker` still returns the hold after `recoverRetainedWorkspace`. - Green: `cd server && npx vitest run src/services/workspace-recovery-admission.test.ts src/__tests__/interrupted-preparation-hold-settle.test.ts src/services/explicit-native-continuation.test.ts src/services/native-runtime/native-human-self-handoff.test.ts`. All 617 tests pass. The server typecheck passes. - Chaos: the H2 workload from #20884 covers the hand-off with a K1 restart after it. Locally the runs had no unsaved files, so no hold appeared. This PR's case needs a remote sandbox with unsaved files. **No Daytona wave was run.** ## Risks - The release applies only when the stopped run's own record names the current person and task, and only after the completed-recovery receipt. Other holds, snapshot-only saves and unsafe archives are unchanged. - No schema change. A run without the record behaves as before. - This branch is rebased onto master after #20884 merged.
