DottaandPaperclip 0748b90062 fix(server): stop goal-less native runs before board task closure (#18616)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - A task owns its active run and its tool access.
> - A board user can close a task while that run is still working.
> - The task update route stopped native runs only when they had an
active session goal.
> - Providers without goals kept running after the route cleared task
ownership.
> - This pull request stops those native runs before a board closure
releases ownership.
> - The benefit is an orderly stop instead of tool denials and failed
finalization.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

A board user marked a task Done while its native OpenCode run was
active. The route cleared its execution lock without stopping the
provider. Later tool calls failed with
`paperclip_runner_tool_binding_not_authorized`. The final wake fence
then failed with `native_current_wake_comments_binding_changed`, leaving
workspace finalization in retry. Cancelled also released ownership
before its later Stop call.

**Expected behavior**

A board closure must confirm native Stop before it releases task
ownership. A failed Stop must leave the task open. The provider does not
need to support session goals.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Start a native task with a provider that has no active session goal.
2. Mark the task Done while its run is active.
3. Observe that the old route updates the task without cancelling the
run.

## What Changed

- Reuse the existing audited cancellation path before a board user marks
an active native task Done or Cancelled.
- Keep the existing 409 response when Stop is unconfirmed.
- Record the board user in the Stop metadata. The existing
acknowledged-Stop policy then leaves queued input and recovery quiet
until a later explicit wake.
- Inspect additional runs only when a task has an execution owner; tasks
without a run lock keep their existing completion path.
- Keep native semantic completion, legacy completion, and goal control
behavior.
- Add route regressions for stop ordering, failed Stop, and legacy
completion.
- Update the execution contract and task maps.

## Verification

- Red before the fix: three regressions failed. Done had no Stop;
Cancelled stopped after the update; an unconfirmed Stop allowed Done.
- A second red proved that a Stop receipt without the route's operator
metadata was not recognized by the real recovery policy. Both cases pass
after the metadata repair.
- Final local result on macOS arm64 / Node.js 26.4.0: **348 tests pass
across eight suites**. These cover the route, native self-completion
authority, cancellation, acknowledged Stop, recovery queues, dependency
wakeups, and completion telemetry.
- CI found seven sibling route failures from an unnecessary active-run
lookup on tasks without execution ownership. Those cases failed locally
before the correction and pass afterward.
- Earlier concurrent local runs hit a module-load hook timeout and one
watchdog socket hang-up. The isolated watchdog case and the complete
final eight-suite run pass with a 90-second startup budget. No assertion
was removed.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and `git diff --check`: pass.
- `pnpm build` and `pnpm -r typecheck`: pass. Server build and typecheck
also pass after the Stop metadata change; the final server build
includes the lookup correction.
- `pnpm test:run`: attempted; the unchanged chat shard selector failed
before executing its selected tests (`No test found ... in lines ...`).
This is separate from the PostgreSQL startup failure. CI supplies
full-suite verification.
- PostgreSQL integration and live-provider acceptance did not run
locally. Embedded PostgreSQL failed before app startup with `could not
create semaphores: No space left on device`. No usable isolated local
database runtime was available. CI supplies the PostgreSQL regression
environment. The full live OpenRouter workflow remains unverified.
- The first final-head CI pass hit a 15-second timeout in the unchanged
`attention-retention-work.test.ts` blocker-history fixture. Cleanup then
deadlocked and later inserts reused IDs. This service test does not call
the changed route. The original log is [retained
here](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41476191754/job/125384289220).
The one allowed rerun also failed on the same commit: the `running` case
exceeded 15 seconds again ([rerun
log](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41476191754/job/125393915025)).
The rerun otherwise passed 2,346 tests. No retention source or assertion
was changed. This repeatable failure is the remaining CI gate; the PR is
**not ready to merge**. The next step is to isolate that retention
fixture/query in a usable PostgreSQL environment and repair its cause
before rerunning CI.
- Greptile reviewed final commit
`b3cb41af2d911e9ced219e846cada3ecec835dbf` at **5/5**, with no
unresolved review threads. Greptile is green. CI is blocked by the
repeated retention test timeout described above.
- CI native cancellation evidence: all 16 tests in
`server/src/__tests__/native-cancellation-request.integration.test.ts`
pass ([job
log](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41476191754/job/125384289222)).
- CI PostgreSQL wake-queue evidence: all 96 tests in
`server/src/modules/wake-queue/adapters/postgres.test.ts` pass ([job
log](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41476191754/job/125384289470)).

## Risks

Board closure now waits for native Stop even when the provider has no
goal. A failed or uncertain Stop keeps the task open. The change uses
the existing cancellation and workspace-preservation path. It adds no
retry loop, credential access, schema change, or publication authority.
Direct service updates and agent semantic completion retain their
existing paths.

## Model Used

OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with reasoning, repository tools, shell
execution, and browser inspection. The exact serving snapshot ID and
context window are not exposed in this session.

Paperclip agent access map

This map accompanies the feature map. It records APIs, agent entry points, permission boundaries and verification for the same capability IDs. The shared contract defines the format and maintenance rules.

The chat scenario catalog uses these same IDs for human requests and expected outcomes. Its scenarios retain the access boundaries here; neither a CEO role nor a planned scenario grants board authority or establishes a working production tool binding.

Use full capability IDs when referring to access contracts outside their file: onboarding/company means the company capability in onboarding.md in both maps. The feature index lists feature and capability IDs; IDs and references explains entry-point references and stable naming.

Browse access contracts

The same-named feature recipes define navigation and capability IDs. Run node scripts/storybook-catalog.mjs for the generated maps/generated/agent-access-map.md index, or browse the published feature guide. Add or update the affected companion; there is no central registration or count.

Existing baseline source references describe the original inspection, not current verification. Record new executed evidence in the PR, issue, or CI artifact with its revision and scope. Do not refresh unrelated headers as bookkeeping.

Using an entry

Read its Policy and Gaps before selecting an agent path. Native fallback, legacy REST/CLI, stdio MCP and a personal assistant connection can have different authority and availability. Use a real admitted production binding; a scenario declaration is not an installed tool. A restricted entry records current enforcement and leaves any unresolved delegation decision visible.

For API catalog disagreements, follow the route/service authorization and record discovery drift. For not-applicable, retain the concrete exception and local path. Split shared business operations from client-only presentation.

Use maintain-verification-skill to reconcile changed source and both maps. Use verify-paperclip and existing API/runner/MCP fixtures to collect the permitted-agent and denial evidence; report blocked/not-run coverage honestly. Run node scripts/check-maps.mjs after editing. The structural check does not certify permissions, API catalog coverage, tool admission or live behavior.

Native REST transport

The call_api parity change reconciles affected baselines against 58e16dbddfc9c8d0cf60867f9d9847f0feda055b and the changes in this PR. Ordinary REST operations use the same route authorization as legacy agent REST. Dedicated tools remain optional for those operations; protocol endpoints still need their existing clients. Board-only routes remain restricted for agent identity.

Native search_api / call_api is enabled by default, but explicit server, company-allowlist and binding settings can narrow admission. It requires a running authorized native run, current task assignment and execution-run binding, company and budget authority, task privacy, and a permitted work mode. Ask and Plan retain mutation restrictions, and runs retain their admitted JWT scope during restart recovery even when task mode changes. A waiting agent does not gain independent native control just because a REST route exists. Connection-management reads support Standard, Ask and Plan; mutations require Standard. Skill-test runs and nonstandard task-bridge keys cannot administer connections. These gates supplement each operation's grants, resolved resource and target scope, and responsible-user authority. See the rollout policy and connection authorization.

Credential-bearing replies, including company exports and their legacy alias, stay inline under a 10 MiB limit and use encrypted mutation receipts. Other saved API snapshots are limited to the issuing actor and responsible user, plus authorized administrators. Artifact uploads enforce the same access checks as downloads; private snapshots are excluded from company exports and public company logos. Explicit deliverables use the existing sharing path. Native event history, checkpoints and completion records omit API bodies while preserving receipt metadata and replay digests. Restored webhook secrets use the same encrypted receipt and inline response policy as newly created webhook secrets. Task image access requires the company boundary and the task permission; skill-test and low-trust agents do not need company-wide browsing authority. Completion replay applies the same idempotent projection to stored and expected payloads; the run-log guide describes its fields.

Sources: API client, catalog, native authority, credential storage classification, snapshot access, and history redaction. The affected entries remain baseline and source-only; this reconciliation does not certify every operation. Targeted real-route proof lives in the API integration suite, including owned routines, skill tests, scoped secrets, proposals and private export replay.
