DottaandPaperclip c4b6168e08 fix(server): disclose assigned tool search page bounds (#18056)
<!-- entire-trail-link-start -->
https://entire.com/gh/paperclipai/-/trails/187/changes/paperclip/187
<!-- entire-trail-link-end -->

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the control plane for AI agents at work.
> - Native agents find connected app tools through the assigned-tool
search tool.
> - Large catalogs require small pages and an offset for the next page.
> - The input schema enforces a maximum of 20 results, but its
descriptions omit that number.
> - Providers can render the integer field as a plain number and hide
its numeric bounds.
> - This pull request puts the existing range and default in both
descriptions.
> - Agents can choose a valid page size before they make a search call.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

An agent can request `limit: 50` for `paperclip_search_assigned_tools`.
The tool rejects the call with `invalid_tool_call` at
`/properties/limit/maximum`. Its model-visible description does not
state the accepted range.

**Expected behavior**

The tool description and the `limit` description must state the range of
1 to 20 and the default of 5. Agents can use `nextOffset` to read more
results.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Inspect the assigned-tool search description in a provider tool list.
2. Render the integer schema as a TypeScript number field.
3. Request `limit: 50` without a visible page-size bound.
4. Observe the validation error. Retry with a valid size and offset.

### Hypothesis and thesis for a fix

The numeric schema is correct, but the descriptions omit the page limit.
Put the existing range and default in text that all providers can see.
Keep the strict validation in the assigned-tool discovery owner. This
should reduce avoidable retries. It does not guarantee that every model
call will be valid.

## What Changed

- State the accepted range and default in the search description and the
`limit` property. Add the existing default as schema metadata.
- Test the tool listing and calls through the real HTTP MCP bridge for
both compact delivery paths.
- Document the page size and offset procedure in the Runner README and
verification maps.

## Verification

- Red: the two new bridge tests fail against the unchanged
implementation because the listing omits the numeric guidance.
- Green: all 37 tests in
`server/src/services/native-runtime/assigned-mcp-tools.test.ts` pass
after the change. The tests cover default pages, a 20-result page,
offset continuation without duplicates, and rejection of 21 and 50.
Existing tests cover grants, revocation, modes, approvals, aliases, and
schema chunks.
- Current head `7d658d0c4e4d9db3feb53a5c508214440ff058c4`: 37/37 focused
tests pass locally. Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved threads.
Current-head CI is green, including typecheck, build, unit tests, Runner
checks, and all browser shards ([CI run, attempt
2](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40733284523/attempts/2)).
Browser shard 7 initially failed in a newly merged agent YAML editor
test when its clipboard read included the whole page. The single retry
passed without a code change; the exact cause is unconfirmed. The
original failure remains in [the CI
log](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/40733284523/job/122975224906).
- Run the focused suite from `server/`: `pnpm exec vitest run
src/services/native-runtime/assigned-mcp-tools.test.ts`.
- `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and `git diff --check` pass.
- The bridge uses real local HTTP. The app gateway uses synthetic
descriptors. No deployed build or live model improvement is claimed.
- Full local verification is incomplete. Recursive typecheck and server
typecheck require `cargo`, which this workspace lacks. A direct server
TypeScript check was killed by the workspace. The full test suite had no
final verdict before the resource stop. CI must supply the remaining
verification.

## Risks

Low risk. This change describes existing limits and adds default
metadata. It does not change search execution, page caps, gateway
access, revocation, approvals, or audit. Models can still send invalid
calls. This change has not measured their future retry rate.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with tool use and code execution. The exact
provider model ID and context window are not exposed to this session.

Paperclip feature map

Start here when reproducing a user-facing bug, verifying a change, or deciding which surfaces a fix must cover. Each recipe describes what a person can do, where they can do it, the expected result, and the evidence needed to verify it. Product behavior is still governed by the implementation spec.

The sibling agent access map records APIs, agent entry points and permission boundaries for the same capability IDs. Follow the shared map contract when maintaining either map.

The chat scenario catalog describes how people might request these capabilities in conversation, including setup and permission branches. These are planned Product E2E journeys, not live coverage results.

IDs and references

Use the existing IDs in issues, PRs, Storybook annotations, tests, and verification evidence:

Reference Example Defined by
Feature ID onboarding The recipe filename without .md.
Capability ID onboarding/company The feature ID plus a key from its Sub-features list, separated by /.
Entry-point reference onboarding.md#web-wizard The recipe filename plus its entry-point heading. The local entry-point ID is web-wizard.

For example, report verifying onboarding/company through web-wizard. Capabilities describe behavior; entry points identify the surface used to exercise it. Entry-point IDs are separate from generated capability IDs. Both maps and Storybook use the same full capability IDs. Each child page states its feature ID; recipe bullets show the full capability ID beside the local key, and access companions show it beneath the local heading. Local keys remain unchanged for parsing and existing anchors.

Keep recipe filenames, sub-feature keys, and entry-point keys stable when changing display titles or navigation. Renaming a filename or key changes its references. The section headings below are navigation labels, not additional IDs.

Open the published Storybook guide for the assembled feature and capability index. The Markdown recipes in this directory are the authored source. Each has a same-named agent-access companion.

Run node scripts/storybook-catalog.mjs to generate local navigation in maps/generated/feature-map.md, maps/generated/agent-access-map.md, and the Storybook guide. Recipes are discovered automatically from their navigation metadata; generation does not depend on this high-level index.

Before driving a journey

  1. Use this checkout's isolated test drive for manual product checks. It creates a temporary instance and prints its URL and data directory. Do not guess that a server on port 3100 belongs to you.
  2. Record the commit, URL, company, login role, relevant experimental settings, adapter, runtime mode, and live versus simulated dependencies. Use disposable tasks and provider resources. A fresh test drive creates a company and CEO, but no task or first run.
  3. Use the current navigation and company prefix. Paths in recipes omit that prefix. Record whether the streamlined or production shell is selected; Agent Chat, chat connectors, and the combined Inbox/Tasks view have separate gates. A hidden surface is an unmet prerequisite, not a successful test.
  4. Run the smallest relevant test first. Vitest commands below run from the repository root after installing dependencies. Playwright recipes use their named configuration and its isolated environment, not an unrelated running instance. Reserve expensive runner/provider tests for the behavior at issue.
  5. Exercise the actual user action, inspect its result, reload, and verify the persisted state or continuation. Use read-only API checks to corroborate UI evidence; creating state through the API does not prove the creation UI.

For agent-driven acceptance work, start with the Paperclip verification skill for an isolated launch, ownership/readiness checks, browser driving, evidence, and cleanup. It uses this directory as its feature map. The existing dev-workspace run/verify skill and evaluation skill describe runtime ownership and evidence handling. Reuse them; this map introduces no environment launcher, credentials, scheduled job, or second test framework.

Evidence contract

Report each entry point as passed, failed, blocked (with its missing prerequisite), or not run. Include the feature ID, full capability IDs and entry-point ID (for example, onboarding/company through web-wizard), plus the recipe link, commit/environment, user action, expected and observed result, command/exit code, and evidence links. Screenshots or traces should show both the action and the discriminating result. Include task/run/request IDs when relevant, without secrets.

A fix is verified across its affected surfaces only when each has evidence or an explicit reason it does not apply. Shared code alone does not prove parity. Keep product regressions visible; do not change the recipe to bless a failure. For Paperclip-assigned work, attach evidence through the artifact workflow.

Inventory and remaining depth

The generated maps/generated/coverage.json lists the current non-test TSX page modules and the recipes that directly reference each one. An unreferenced module is a documentation candidate, not proof that its feature is absent or untested. Remaining workflow limits live in each recipe. Inventory and example associations describe documentation scope, not runtime health.

Maintaining the reference

The map documents user journeys. It does not execute them automatically; generated inventories record documentation scope rather than live test health. Product E2E reports reuse these capability IDs through the journey associations. Their coverage view shows which scenarios in a campaign are linked to each capability and the associated test results. An association or passing scenario does not certify the whole capability; unselected and unmapped journeys remain distinct.

When maintaining a recipe, compare its entry points and expected results with the current source. Check that linked tests still exercise the stated behavior and that local references still exist. Keep the same-named agent access companion and stable sub-feature IDs aligned when behavior or access changes. Source-only access inventory remains distinct from live verification. Run node scripts/check-maps.mjs after map edits for structural/reference checks; follow the shared contract for the source and behavioral checks it cannot perform.

Each recipe starts with a small frontmatter navigation record, then an H1:

---
navigation: {"section":"Tasks and conversations","sectionOrder":20,"order":10}
---

The H1 supplies the feature title, and the first paragraph supplies its summary. Orders are local to the section; leave gaps for additions. Equal orders use the stable filename as a tie-breaker. Keep a section's name/order consistent across its recipes. Discovery uses the recipe and companion; keep the readable ID index above aligned when features or capability IDs change.

Optional ### Storybook verification guidance lives inside the recipe's Gotchas section. Each level-four heading contains a backtick-quoted capability key and has Scope (ui, cli, or browser), Storybook, Production, and Sources fields. These are verification instructions and intentional scope limits, not run results or a required story for every API. The generated gap report combines this guidance with current story associations.

After frontmatter, each recipe starts with an H1 and a user-visible description, then exactly:

  1. Sub-features — stable backticked local keys, full capability IDs, and observable behavior/states, such as - `company`: `onboarding/company` — create a company.
  2. How to get to it (user POV) — one H3 backticked entry-point ID per surface.
  3. Driving it with — starts with Preconditions:; repeat each entry-point H3, with Automated: and Manual: paragraphs. Name test scope and gaps honestly.
  4. Gotchas — misleading look-alikes, feature gates, and invalid evidence.

New or updated entries follow Poteto's feature-map examples. Existing entries with a Driving it heading can adopt the named harness when their recipes are updated. The original format was inspired by Omnigent's feature map. Paperclip's recipes and checks follow its own task model and test infrastructure.
