DottaandPaperclip cbc5132e6c fix(adapters): expose a verified provider stop before workspace restoration (#14311)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agent adapters own local or remote provider processes.
> - Run cleanup must know when the final provider process has stopped.
> - A remote timeout or a lost transport does not prove that the
provider stopped.
> - Retried provider invocations also make an earlier stop signal stale.
> - This pull request adds a verified final-invocation stop callback
before workspace restoration.
> - The dependent instruction revision change uses that boundary to
preserve private instruction edits safely.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

Adapter completion did not expose a reliable point between provider
shutdown and workspace restoration. Cleanup could lose provider-written
files, or treat a remote timeout as proof that a process stopped.

**Expected behavior**

Cleanup runs once after the final provider invocation has a verified
stop receipt and before workspace restoration. An incomplete remote
command keeps collection pending.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run a remote provider that returns a timeout without a numeric exit
code.
2. Let the adapter return or retry the provider.
3. Attempt to collect provider-written files during cleanup. The adapter
has no verified final-process boundary to use.

This is the prerequisite for the stacked canonical instruction revision
pull request. It has no database or UI dependency. Related #13291
verifies remote termination for later recovery; this change exposes the
earlier adapter-owned stop boundary before workspace restoration. The
scopes do not duplicate each other.

## What Changed

- Add a stop callback to adapter execution context and a
final-invocation fence.
- Confirm local child closure and complete remote exit receipts. Reject
remote timeouts, missing exits, transport failures, and SSH exit 255 as
stop proof.
- Invoke collection once before workspace restoration in eight CLI
adapters and at the confirmed ACP stop boundary.
- Preserve the stop observation when a later log flush fails.
- Run bridge and workspace cleanup in `finally` even when collection
rejects. ACP records a safe error without exposing a raw filesystem
path. Grok keeps collection errors separate from workspace restore
failures and preserves completed provider results when both cleanup
steps fail.
- Correct the existing Cursor test shell fixture so bounded remote file
reads run against real fixture files.

## Verification

- Three stop-boundary regressions failed before the callback
implementation and passed after it.
- Independent prerequisite branch: 377 tests passed across 24 adapter,
process-target, and ACP suites. Two added collector-rejection tests
failed before the cleanup fix and passed after it.
- A third regression reproduced Grok misclassifying a collection failure
as failed workspace restoration. Two additional cases covered completed
and failed provider turns when collection and restore both fail. The
Grok and restore-classifier suites passed 48 tests.
- All nine affected package typechecks and affected package builds
passed; Grok checks passed again after its classification fix.
- Integrated instruction branch: native local, legacy local, and native
Daytona each passed three browser tasks with exact persisted bytes,
fresh-task readback, history/restore, and explicit conflict resolution.
Unchanged warm Daytona passed three turns. Legacy Codex passed all five
checks again after the exception-safe cleanup fix.
- Alternate staging passed the same three-task native Daytona flow:
exact stopped-run save, independent downloaded readback, browser
history/restore, and explicit resolution of a real concurrent edit. The
deployed source was `14c3d810c9e05625121b3d27767aea9317b03125`, which
covers the initial adapter callback. Later Grok cleanup failures are
qualified by the adapter tests above.

- The final combined native Daytona flow passed again on deployed
`2bedd0f23bf4698b1f8b818f6796900647030427`: three fresh tasks proved
ordinary instruction edits, independent readback, History/Restore,
concurrent board conflict, and explicit candidate resolution. This
native staging flow does not claim to exercise the Grok adapter.

## Risks

- An unverified remote stop intentionally does not trigger collection. A
later controller with verified stop evidence must recover it or report
the copy unavailable.
- The callback is optional. Callers that do not register it retain their
existing behavior.
- The callback runs before workspace restoration and can delay cleanup
if its caller does not bound its own work. The dependent instruction
collector uses bounded reads and retries. A rejected callback still
permits bridge and workspace cleanup; it cannot claim an instruction
save.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6, with tool use and code execution. The runtime does
not expose the exact deployment variant or context-window size. Multiple
Codex agents implemented and verified the change.
