DottaandPaperclip 717684ad8f Add project folder browsing to skill imports (#9930)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane teams use to manage AI agents and
their reusable capabilities.
> - Skills Manager lets operators discover and import skills from
project workspaces.
> - Automatic discovery only surfaces skills in conventional locations,
so valid skills stored elsewhere in a project are invisible.
> - Operators need a safe way to navigate project folders without
exposing paths outside the selected workspace.
> - This pull request adds company-scoped workspace folder browsing and
selection to the project skill import flow.
> - The benefit is that operators can find and import valid skill
folders regardless of repository layout while preserving workspace
boundaries.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

- **Subsystem affected:** Cross-cutting (`server/`, `ui/`, and
`packages/shared`).
- **Problem or motivation:** Project skill imports rely on conventional
directory discovery, which prevents operators from selecting valid
`SKILL.md` folders stored in atypical locations.
- **Proposed solution:** Add a company-scoped browse endpoint and a
folder browser in the import dialog. The server resolves real paths,
rejects traversal outside the workspace, skips symlinks and high-noise
directories, identifies skill directories/files, and caps listings at
250 entries.
- **Alternatives considered:** Expanding the automatic scan to every
directory would be slower and noisier, while accepting arbitrary
filesystem paths would weaken project/workspace scoping.
- **Roadmap alignment:** This extends the completed “Skills Manager,
Skill Studio & Skills Store” capability in `ROADMAP.md` without
duplicating planned core work.
- **Additional context:** GitHub search found no duplicate or closely
related public issues or pull requests.

## What Changed

- Added shared browse request/result contracts and validation for
project workspace navigation.
- Added a company-scoped API route and service that safely lists local
workspace folders and detects `SKILL.md` entries.
- Added project workspace/folder navigation to the import dialog,
including parent navigation, workspace switching, truncation feedback,
and direct skill selection.
- Added service and route regression tests for browsing, skill
detection, company isolation, and traversal rejection.
- Added shared response schemas and OpenAPI documentation for the browse
endpoint.
- Hardened explicit skill selections with realpath containment so
symlinked directories cannot escape the project workspace.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-skills.test.ts` — 64 tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/openapi-routes.test.ts` — 3
tests passed.
- Focused post-review reruns: `company-skills-service.test.ts` — 45
tests passed; shared/server typechecks passed.
- GitHub latest-head checks — all green after one transient e2e rerun;
no pending or failing checks.
- `pnpm check:token-gates` — all gates clean on the rebased head.

## Risks

- Low-to-moderate risk: this adds a filesystem browsing surface.
Realpath containment checks prevent workspace escape, symlinks are
excluded, remote-managed workspaces are rejected, and directory listings
are capped.
- The browser intentionally hides `.git` and `node_modules`; skills
inside those directories cannot be selected through this flow.

> For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and
discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, exact model ID `gpt-5.5`, reasoning-enabled with
terminal/tool use and code execution; runtime context-window size is not
exposed.

## 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)
- [ ] My branch name describes the change (e.g. `docs/...`, `fix/...`)
and contains no internal Paperclip ticket id or instance-derived details
— the execution harness requires preserving the assigned branch name.
- [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 — no
user-facing docs changes are needed beyond this PR description because
the flow is self-explanatory UI behavior.
- [x] I have considered and documented any risks above
- [x] All Paperclip CI gates are green
- [x] Greptile is 5/5 with no open P2s, recommendations, or follow-ups
- [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before
requesting merge
