## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source control plane people use to manage AI-agent companies and their ongoing work. > - Status cards turn a standing question into recurring, agent-generated summaries on the board. > - The existing setup split intent across a watch prompt and separate update instructions, which made creation and later behavior harder to understand. > - A status card should have one durable source of truth for both deciding what to watch and telling the summarizer what each update must contain. > - This pull request makes the card prompt that source of truth, simplifies creation to one step, and lets operators choose the running agent immediately. > - The benefit is a smaller mental model, fewer configuration modes, and consistent update instructions throughout the card lifecycle. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Status cards currently require operators to express the same intent in two places: the watch prompt and optional update instructions with append/replace/none modes. This feature simplifies the experimental status-card workflow so a single prompt defines both the watch query and every generated update. The create flow must also support selecting the responsible agent without a second setup step. Related prior status-card work: #10101. ## What Changed - Use the status card's single prompt to compile the watch query and directly instruct every summary update. - Add migration `0190_status_card_single_prompt` to remove `status_cards.instructions_mode` and `status_cards.instructions`. - Add `agentId` to `createStatusCardSchema`, validate company membership, and default new cards to the built-in Summarizer. - Replace the two-step create flow with one prompt-and-agent dialog and extract a shared `SummarizerAgentSelect` for create/settings surfaces. - Remove the extra-instructions settings section, reset incremental history when the prompt changes, and rename the board page to "Status". - Update the bundled `status-card-query` skill and board-operator documentation, then regenerate the skills catalog manifest. ## Verification - Server status-card suites: 29/29 passing. - UI `StatusCards` suites: 22/22 passing. - Skills catalog suite: 20/20 passing. - `tsc -b` passes for server, UI, shared, and database packages. - `pnpm check:migrations` passes. - Light and dark mode screenshots cover the new create dialog and settings tab. ## Risks - Migration `0190` intentionally drops existing separate instruction text. Existing card prompts remain and become the update instructions under the new model; status cards are experimental and feature-flagged. - Prompt edits now reset the incremental summary chain and trigger a full rebuild, which is intentional because the prompt is also the update contract. - Agent selection is company-scoped; invalid agent ids return a validation error rather than creating a misrouted card. > 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 - Implementation: Anthropic Claude via the `claude_local` adapter, agent label "Claude Fable 5"; extended reasoning, tool use, and code execution. The exact provider model id and context-window value were not retained in the task metadata. - PR preparation: OpenAI GPT-5.4 through Codex CLI, with reasoning, repository inspection, GitHub CLI, and Paperclip API tool use. ## 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 - [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: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
