## Thinking Path > - Paperclip manages work through tasks, agent runs, dependencies, and human decisions. > - The first-task workflow asks for approval before it creates an execution task. > - File-producing work must run on a child task before onboarding can finish. > - A child blocked by its onboarding source cannot start while the source waits for that child. > - This change rejects that dependency during task creation and later edits, and gives the agent a correction. > - The shipped recipe shows the dependency direction and requires the actual approved inputs in the child instructions. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description **What happened?** After human approval, an onboarding run could create a child with the onboarding source in `blockedByTaskIds`. Creation saved a blocked child with no wake. The parent could then wait for that child. A handoff could also refer to input from the parent conversation without including the input in the child description. **Expected behavior** The approved child can execute before its waiting parent. Invalid first-task dependency input fails before task creation and leaves the same command key available for a corrected call. The child instructions include the required approved input and constraints. **Steps to reproduce** 1. Accept a proposal on a server-created first task. 2. Call native `create_task` with `status: "todo"` and the onboarding source in `blockedByTaskIds`. 3. Observe a blocked child with no scheduled wake. Block the parent on that child to expose the stalled handoff. **Paperclip version or commit** The regression reproduces on `f8484a9f8d1f68e9534fee4f29e00e716dc680f4`. The repair is based on current master. **Deployment mode** Core native and REST task creation. The same server boundary serves self-hosted and hosted instances. Related: #18080 fixed remote delivery of the selected first-task skill. This change handles the later child handoff boundary. ## What Changed - Reject a task blocked by its authenticated first-task source during creation and later dependency edits. Later agent edits also check the locked target's server-owned onboarding parent, protecting a child running under its own execution. Compare UUID identity in PostgreSQL so alternate supported UUID spellings cannot bypass the check. The error explains the correction. - Add a native child/dependency recipe with self-contained approved input guidance. Clarify the general `create_task` input descriptions and update their generated contracts. - Cover native and REST rejection, corrected retry, preserved valid dependencies and replay, and an executable recipe with exact input bytes read from the child's own context. Thread the authenticated run through native dependency edits. Keep blocker corrections independent of a new proposal decision. - Update execution semantics and the existing onboarding map entries. ## Verification - Red on `f8484a9f`: the new native regression received a created blocked child instead of the expected rejection. - Review regressions were red on the original PR head: uppercase, unhyphenated and braced source UUIDs created blocked children; a later child PATCH returned 200 and saved the reversed blocker. - Review follow-up reproduced both native and REST child-own-run bypasses on `75fa75a6`: the native dependency call applied the reverse edge; the child's own PATCH returned 200. The regression uses the actual authenticated child execution and an already checked-out task. - All 95 tests across first-task admission, assets, and the full native tool-authority suite pass. The shipped recipe is validated against the native schemas and exercised through real task/dependency services with disposable PostgreSQL. Rejected PATCH tests preserve existing authorization and attempt-audit behavior and require no requested task-field, relation or wake change. Compatibility controls retain ordinary manual parent blockers, explicit board edits, other blockers and empty-list corrections. - Runner TypeScript build, generated contracts, capability inventory, protocol manifest, and map checks passed. - Server typecheck and all 95 focused tests pass with the child-run follow-up. All latest checks pass on `f24509ae`: 55 successful checks, one neutral review check, four skipped checks, and a successful legacy security status. Both automated reviews are 5/5 on this exact commit. - Prior-head CI failures are preserved: the Runner close fixture had unconfirmed provider drain while suspension succeeded; its exact fake-provider subprocess row passed locally with unchanged sources. The browser outage test lost its title textarea before any outage write. A bounded local control with a fully loaded composer passed every original outage assertion. The prior failure is an editor-readiness race; its exact asynchronous ordering remains unproved. No UI, browser-test, or timeout change is included. Neither failure is counted as a pass or silently discarded. - The first `f24509ae` CI attempt had two interrupted jobs: Typecheck and General server 9/12. Their logs record runner shutdown signals. The server job also records lost runner communication. The same-head failed-job rerun passed both jobs and the required aggregate. It reused the other successful results. No source, test, or timeout change was made for the rerun. The failed attempt remains preserved. Full repository checks pass in CI; the local full repository typecheck, test, and build commands were not repeated. - No external model or provider calls are used by these checks. Real-provider acceptance at this revision remains separate. ## Risks - The new rejection uses the authenticated run and the server-owned onboarding origin. Ordinary tasks, other blockers, empty-list corrections, and already committed creation replay retain their existing behavior. Blocker edits do not reapply the creation approval gate. - Nonempty blocker edits perform two indexed identity reads; the task lookup covers at most the run source and locked structural parent. Other patches and empty-list corrections add no source lookup. The update guard adds no parent row lock behind a child. Existing REST authorization checkout and attempt auditing remain in place before the domain mutation guard. - The explicit input recipe guides the model. Schema and persistence tests do not prove that a future model follows every instruction. - The tool guidance changes the generated semantic catalog identity. The maintained generated files are synchronized in this change. ## Model Used OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` through Codex, with `ultra` reasoning effort, repository tools, code generation, and test execution. The context window is not exposed by the runtime. ## Checklist - [x] I have included a thinking path that traces from project context to this change - [x] I have specified the model used and stated the available runtime detail - [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 described the issue in-PR following the bug issue template - [x] I have not referenced internal or instance-local Paperclip issues or links - [x] My branch name describes the change and contains no internal ticket ID - [x] I have run focused tests locally and they pass - [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable - [x] I have updated relevant documentation to reflect my changes - [x] I have considered and documented 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 --------- Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
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.

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.
