## Thinking Path > - Paperclip connects agent accounts and prepares their execution environments. > - A managed sandbox image can outlive the model defaults shipped by the app. > - Claude setup skipped installation whenever a CLI was already on PATH. > - The selected model then failed its minimum-version check after sign-in succeeded. > - This pull request prepares a compatible private CLI before testing or running it. > - Cloud onboarding also stops asking customers to run inaccessible shell commands. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description **What happened?** A new managed Cloud stack completed Claude subscription sign-in. Its environment test then failed because the snapshot contained Claude Code 2.1.263, while the selected `claude-opus-5-5` model requires 2.1.280. The screen displayed Manual debug commands that a hosted customer cannot run. **Expected behavior** Paperclip prepares its managed runtime before testing the selected account. A stale image CLI does not require the customer to upgrade a server package. Failed preparation still blocks hiring. Cloud does not display manual shell debugging. **Steps to reproduce** 1. Start a managed sandbox with Claude Code 2.1.263 on PATH. 2. Connect a Claude subscription and select `claude-opus-5-5` on the CLI lane. 3. Connect the agent. Installation is skipped because the command exists, then the version gate blocks the hello test. **Paperclip version or commit** Source baseline: `6204239cfc8c3be79fc185cf3f468ebaa0ab1e3e`. **Deployment mode** Authenticated managed Cloud with a Daytona named snapshot. The correction also applies to the default CLI in other managed sandbox transports. Related work: Refs #14993 sets model/runtime requirements; Refs #15993 changes native defaults on qualified targets. Neither prepares an outdated default sandbox CLI on this path. Searches found no open duplicate. ## What Changed - Check the actual default CLI against the selected model's existing minimum version. - When a sandbox's default command is outdated, install the exact required npm package into a private versioned workspace prefix. Reuse a compatible private installation. Keep the image's global CLI intact. - Verify the private executable and use that same command for the account hello test and normal CLI runs, with matching command metadata. Probe effort support after preparing that executable so the chosen effort is retained. Keep the model, account, engine and permissions unchanged. - Return safe preparation checks to environment tests and normal run logs, distinguishing installation failure causes without returning raw installer output or credential-bearing URLs. - Exclude provider and Paperclip credentials from the installer environment. Preserve the existing failing version gate if installation or verification cannot succeed. Local, SSH and explicit custom commands remain operator-managed. - Hide Manual debug and legacy operator check hints on Cloud and while deployment metadata is unknown; preserve check messages and details. Retain self-hosted help and the detailed failed checks. Cloud copy asks for a retry instead of asking the customer to repair the environment. - Add subprocess-backed runtime controls, an account-probe regression and mounted Cloud/self-hosted wizard controls. Update development guidance and the affected capability maps. ## Verification - Passed all Claude source suites and the server Claude execution suite on head `c941ae44c22d8dafec0df033a129e39ce4ebd966`: **412 passed**, one existing opt-in test skipped. These include the new command/effort ordering, safe installer diagnostics, environment forwarding and run-log regressions. - On final head `0ecae0e9304f495a57524158b3700b8e9bc21cb8`, passed **208 tests** across all 174 mounted onboarding wizard tests and 34 Claude execution tests. The failure fixture includes the real command-bearing hint, and execution asserts both metadata command fields agree. - Passed `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm build`, `pnpm check:token-gates`, `node scripts/check-maps.mjs` and `git diff --check`. Full typecheck and build were repeated successfully on final head `0ecae0e9304f495a57524158b3700b8e9bc21cb8`. [Latest-head CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/39879208694) is green: 54 checks passed and two skipped, including browser E2E and serialized database suites. - The new runtime controls execute real subprocesses with a controlled installer. They cover an old CLI, an already compatible CLI, failed or ineffective installation, local/custom commands, and an unknown version. The probe regression asserts that the hello call uses the private executable. - A separate non-root local subprocess check installed the real npm `@anthropic-ai/claude-code@2.1.280` package. Its private command reported 2.1.280, the simulated image CLI remained 2.1.263, and a second preparation reused the private copy. This ran on macOS ARM64. It did not use a provider account, send a model prompt, or prove live Daytona behavior. - Attempted `pnpm test:run`. Embedded PostgreSQL initialization failed after five attempts on this Mac with `Postgres init script exited with code null`. The unchanged native-session database cases then failed. Stopped only that full-suite process tree after recording the repeated startup failure. No full local-suite pass is claimed; Linux CI must cover those tests. - The first new subprocess fixture had a quoting syntax error. It was corrected before the passing focused runs. The one-off real-package script first required an ESM extension correction, then passed. Logs retain both attempts. A new execution assertion initially inspected the final sandbox cleanup shell instead of the launched command; it now checks execution metadata. A broader directory selection also picked up generated `dist` tests whose Markdown fixtures are not copied by the build (two ENOENT failures). The explicit source-suite run above passes; no generated-test pass is claimed. - Apex review: **5/5**, reviewed final head `0ecae0e9304f495a57524158b3700b8e9bc21cb8`, all five earlier findings addressed and resolved, no new findings. - Merge, deployment and a fresh live Cloud subscription test are still required. No customer account or production runtime was changed by this branch. ## Risks - An outdated sandbox needs npm registry access and up to 120 seconds for one bounded installation attempt. A failed or unverified install continues to block execution. - The versioned package uses sandbox workspace storage. Compatible cached copies avoid repeat installation within that workspace. Existing runtime cleanup and sandbox lifecycle still apply. - The compatible version comes from the adapter's existing model-version contract. This does not add a model fallback or change the selected execution engine. - No schema, credential, permission, workflow or lockfile change. ## Model Used OpenAI Codex, based on GPT-6, assisted with implementation and verification. The exact serving model ID and context-window limit are not exposed in this session. Capabilities used: code editing, shell execution, API inspection and test execution. ## 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) - [x] My branch name describes the change (e.g. `docs/...`, `fix/...`) and contains no internal Paperclip ticket id or instance-derived details - [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 - [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 --------- 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.
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 requires operator rollout admission, 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.
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.
