## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work. > - Agents need to discover connections, obtain consent, and continue from saved decisions. > - We want to reduce repeated instructions only when measured behavior supports the change. > - The existing decline tasks tell the model not to retry. One provider-decline check can pass without an explanation or an observed service counter. > - This PR adds neutral tasks and stricter saved-evidence checks before any connection instruction reduction. > - Production instructions remain unchanged. The new cells are configured, not live-qualified. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Refs #15218. Refs #15389. **What existing behavior does this improve?** The Product E2E connection workflow evaluation and its instruction measurement provenance. **Current behavior** Some decline prompts supply the policy they intend to test. The provider-decline workflow does not require a saved post-decision explanation. Its old no-call check can use a missing fixture counter as zero. OpenCode has no connection cases in the original Everyday matrix. **Proposed behavior** Add an explicit-only suite with five connection stories on native Codex, ACPX Claude, and OpenCode. Require an explanation attributed by exact run ID after a saved decline. Observe the provider fixture counter. Preserve the original cases and grades. ## What Changed - Add fifteen configured cells with one attempt, twelve-minute deadlines, and verified 1,000-cent company and agent budget stops. - Remove procedure hints from the three new decline prompts. Keep a user-permitted explanation fallback and the existing positive controls. - Require saved decline state, one decision, unchanged connections, observed zero service calls where applicable, and a post-decision explanation from a successful run on the same task. - Add negative grader calibration and test the actual fixture budget payloads. Exclude the suite from default and generic selection. - Extend the existing full-catalog measurement source manifest with connection descriptions and schemas. Add an audit of fixed text, tool descriptions, returned instructions, and unqualified behavior. - Rebase on master `a6306ba606eb87c89b9ef0344e9fe8e0025580f9` and preserve its new Cursor suites. No production, credential, workflow, or lockfile change. ## Verification - Before rebase: Product E2E support passed 1,424 TypeScript tests and 128 Node checks. Six catalog measurement tests, repository typecheck/build, Product E2E typecheck, and exact fifteen-cell discovery passed. - The full pre-rebase repository test run was stopped when master advanced. Its partial result is not a pass. - After rebase and the review correction: repository build/typecheck, Product E2E typecheck, 1,799 TypeScript support tests (one skipped), 128 Node checks, six measurement tests, and exact fifteen-cell discovery pass. The duplicate local full-suite run was stopped incomplete after about 20 minutes once complete CI passed; no local full-suite pass is claimed. - Review found that the initial grader read `runId` instead of public `createdByRunId`. A regression calibration reproduced both rejection of valid public comments and acceptance of the wrong alias. The fix uses the actual field and binds the evidence type to the shared `IssueComment` contract. A subsequent type-only import path correction passes Product E2E typecheck. - Final source `0de306b9664bfbdebb6709ddb54c95152740d1ad` passes [complete CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/37560250545): 51 successful checks and two intentional Storybook skips, plus separate Snyk success. Fresh Greptile review is 5/5 with the single review thread resolved and no new findings. The PR is clean and mergeable. - Local commands: `pnpm build`, `pnpm -r typecheck`, `pnpm test:e2e:runner:unit`, `pnpm test:e2e:runner:typecheck`, and `pnpm test:e2e:runner -- --list --suite native-connection-guidance`. The measurement uses `PAPERCLIP_NATIVE_PROCEDURE_MEASUREMENT=/tmp/connection-measurement.json pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/server server/src/__tests__/native-procedure-measurement.test.ts`. Validation used pinned pnpm 9.15.4. - No paid provider campaign was started. There is no baseline/candidate behavior result for these new cells. - The audit records 654 UTF-8 bytes of fixed connection guidance. A clean capture at `a04b8c6a452315625014888335d45670a2094fb6` confirms 41 supplied tools, 53,341 normalized bytes at start/resume, 50,949 at compact continuation, and a 48,195-byte authenticated OpenCode MCP catalog. These are byte counts, not tokens, bills, vendor-private prompt sizes, or savings from this PR. ## Risks - This is eval preparation. Passing support tests do not establish live model behavior or qualify an instruction reduction. - The explanation oracle checks attributed saved output. It does not prove cognition or arbitrary prose truthfulness. One saved interaction also does not prove the absence of repeated idempotent tool calls. - Successful new authentication and tool refresh, existing-connection agent grants, independent work while waiting, explicit retry after decline, and blocking when mandatory work remains still need separate coverage. - Notion setup decline does not execute a real Notion service. Positive service approval uses an already installed deterministic service; it does not qualify new connection creation. - The original historical failures remain unchanged. Future comparisons must freeze source, fixture, model, input, and grading controls and retain every actual attempt. ## Model Used OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, repository tools, and code execution. The exact serving model ID and context-window size were not exposed in this session; they are not inferred. No model provider was invoked by the eval suite in this PR preparation. ## 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>
