## Thinking Path > - Paperclip lets people inspect and manage their agents’ work. > - The timeline must report canonical ownership history, and OpenCode tool failures need bounded diagnostics. > - The measured candidate also had independently reproduced question-navigation and oracle defects. > - This change promotes the reviewed production fixes and pins one immutable, qualified source composition. > - Original queries, model, counts, clocks, privacy controls and qualification holds remain intact. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Refs #18775, #18777, #18779, #18711, #18713, #18718, #18699, #18798, #18799. **What happened?** The measured candidate predates merged native-runtime fixes and contains fixture defects. The timeline omitted recorded reassignment/removal history. Finish-input errors lacked a closed correlation and shape witness. **Expected behavior:** project recorded ownership transitions without inventing facts, distinguish successful native execution from failed verification steps, and retain content-free finish diagnostics. **Steps to reproduce:** repeat an unchanged assignee while editing another field; then reassign or unassign it. Only recorded transitions should appear. Invalid OpenCode finish input should produce a correlated rejection witness without values or schema text. Related #18699 adds gated company OTLP diagnostics. This change uses the existing local callback; it adds no exporter or capture policy. ## What Changed - Promote canonical timeline creation, reassignment and removal projection from #18777. Initial child ownership requires a recorded fresh-creation receipt; delegation requires a readable recorded parent. Unknown legacy facts fail closed. User actors/owners require active company membership; agent actors/targets must exist in that company. Spans, events and edges share that admission filter. Remove the introduced all-history absence query and use guarded indexed UUID lookups. - Add the shared/OpenAPI `unassigned` event kind, preserving newer main contracts and issue-route/service code through reviewed semantic joins. Existing UI consumers remain generic; no new visual marker is claimed. - Add bounded OpenCode finish diagnostics: schema digest, hashed call identity, closed shape enums and validation category. A throwing sink does not change admission or cancellation. - Pin immutable candidate `fd5e3b1e5a379524c0d1651ed8273e75ffd86541`, composed from combined #18777 source `b734393eff0d7ef85b7ad8abd556d2a66ca3a4e6` plus the reviewed MCP diagnostic delta. It preserves actually merged #18775 `97c07d149b5670088faf15317dcf603c75e2af87` and #18779 `a352c057d475067b4fe67375f06785287dfbe0ce`, and merged runtime fixes #18711, #18713 and #18718. - Qualify narrative handling for adjacent repair/verification sentences, intervening native-failure wording, and negated repair objects. Questions, denials and hypotheticals retain their controls. Preserve Previous question beside the qualified Entity type import; separately restore the already-called `internalResultLink` goal helper binding. That import is a runtime fixture repair, not a type-only change. - Include the narrow older-baseline CI typecheck closure and causal heartbeat test observers in the candidate. All four default typecheck projects execute. Main already includes the protected upstream tooling and newer heartbeat fixture, so neither is overwritten with an older candidate file. - Preserve all 244 identities, original queries, model, native/human counts and clocks, including the explicit prior Studio accounting exception. The full catalog stays on its candidate branch; the 196/244 gate and historical SDK runtime holds remain. ## Verification The primary’s f478 retry repeated the real composer-hidden five-second assertion (1 failure,18 passes,1 skip). Investigation established a setup readiness gap: an outer route response can delay mounting the chat thread beyond the assertion. The successor adds the existing real-thread `aria-busy="false"` readiness barrier before the unchanged composer assertion. The original120-second scenario and digest, unread, source-link, history, and reply checks are unchanged. The full owning browser scenario passed naturally in10.2s and with its first real chat response held6000ms in12.0s. This synchronizes fixture setup; the underlying AWS late-mount latency remains unproved. **Current main gates passed:** exact head `823dab49fcd8470140c178771e5c0c6b78725e97` has [successful normal CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41724620555), including both required aggregates, fresh Greptile 5/5 and zero unresolved review threads. Paperclip Review is neutral with a completed substantive 5/5 and no actionable defect. The current optional Superagent Security Scan is neutral/inconclusive: Security Graph context retrieval returned HTTP503, so its assessment did not start. That result supplies no security PASS credit. The primary source PR retains its separate current-head gate before Root sequences normal protected merges. - Reviewed MCP controls: 130 on main and 129 on the older candidate. Meaningful parent comparisons failed before implementation/correlation correction. Controls cover actual offered schema identity, null/omitted admission, bounded rejection categories and throwing-sink cancellation. - Exact unchanged production postimages retain 63 Postgres/public-route controls, nine plan controls and the focused index-plan proof. Owner OpenAPI passes 32 controls; main’s newer contract passes 33. Earlier setup/sandbox failures remain recorded; unchanged database controls were not replayed. - Narrative owner controls pass 216, retaining all prior 207 controls. The independent peer passes 144 balanced cases; earlier 108 and 39-case matrices remain retained. Actual consumer parent failures reproduced the review findings before repair. - Main’s server NoEmit passed on its protected baseline; only two pin files changed afterward. The candidate’s prior full server and four-project checks passed. All server/package/script/root-lock inputs remain byte-identical; the changed Runner project’s guard passes on the current source. Compatibility driver controls pass 47 and six owning suites pass 82. The one explicitly reviewed Docker-only unit omission concerns an unimported image-build feature; all four intended project guards still execute. - Pin/adapter/contract controls pass 47. All 242 expanded declarations, the two legacy dispatch rows, and all 244 singleton private policies retain their authenticated identities. Descriptor, launcher and private-protocol bytes remain exact; declaration loading invoked zero fixture callbacks. - All 506 SDK input blobs match the meaningfully compiled `6abe5739` source vector. Prior real shared/SDK builds measured declaration/map changes and zero runtime-JavaScript changes; a compiled consumer accepts the new kind and rejects an unknown kind. The reviewed registry remains unchanged. Default source proof, 51 SDK controls, 20 custody controls and 16 UI consumer controls remain qualified; runtime/compiler/parser/Zod/canary pins and held runtime grades are unchanged. - The full Mac heartbeat run on prior observer source retained **58 passes / six failures in 802.78s**. Two nonassignee controls subsequently pass focused checks. Four late timeout causes remain unresolved locally; no flakiness/infrastructure cause or complete local pass is claimed. [Actual AWS CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41712023737/job/126182620050) ran this exact heartbeat file with **64 passes in 107.209s**. Its server/package inputs are unchanged in the current narrative-only successor. The source-identical f478 heartbeat file also passed all64 AWS tests in105.812s; source inputs remain unchanged. Current main ordinary CI passed; the primary source PR must independently close its latest-head ordinary CI gate. - Historical main [run 41713049555](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/41713049555) recorded six synchronized runner-shutdown failures and cancellations; the shutdown cause is unknown. A separate chat passive-control assertion observed one `db.transaction` call where zero was expected. Finite local probes passed 2+2 but did not establish a cause or late stack. No external publication, cleanup cause, source fix or flakiness is inferred. The primary’s separate composer-visibility CI failure also remains an inconclusive historical result; no guessed fix is credited. No old-head retry was used. - Earlier UI/inbox fixture failures and the CLI startup timeout remain historical. UI/inbox repairs are now upstream in #18799/#18798 and main preserves those files verbatim. The CLI timeout cause remains unknown. Broader local repository/Rust qualification is not claimed; fresh hosted CI supplies broader coverage. - All four actual repair merges, an exact merged-tree/diagnostic source join, and fresh controller/source/private-policy/active-run guards precede the ten-case TestOps measurement. No paid or model eval was launched for this PR; the original three passes/seven failures remain unchanged. ## Risks The next ten-case model result is unproved. Earlier MCP timeout and continuation-shape causes remain unknown; diagnostics provide future evidence without relaxing validation or rewriting grades. Prior local/CI failures are retained, including the unresolved chat assertion and local heartbeat timeouts. Initial ownership requires canonical in-window audit facts. Missing legacy facts remain unknown. The additive `unassigned` contract is synchronized across shared/OpenAPI/server consumers, with no new UI marker. SDK runtime holds and the broader 196/244 qualification gate remain. Normal protected merges require fresh checks and resolved feedback; no CODEOWNER or branch-protection bypass is authorized here. ## Model Used OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` through Codex.

Paperclip maps
The maps describe the same capabilities from two perspectives:
- Feature map: what a person can do, where to reach it, and how to verify the user journey. Preserve its Poteto format.
- Agent access map: the APIs and agent entry points for those capabilities, their permission boundaries, and access verification.
The chat scenario catalog adds natural-language requests, starting context and expected conversational outcomes for the same capability IDs. It lives with Product E2E as planning data; a scenario reference is neither a registered execution nor evidence that a journey passed.
These are sibling directories under maps/. Each feature file has a same-named
agent access companion. Reuse the product map's sub-feature IDs, so tasks/create
identifies the same capability in both maps. Product behavior remains governed by
the implementation spec; a map cannot grant
authority or redefine a permission denial as success.
Capability identifiers
The feature ID is the recipe filename without .md, such as onboarding.
The full capability ID joins that feature ID and a Sub-features key with /:
the company key in feature-map/onboarding.md is onboarding/company.
Its agent-access-map/onboarding.md companion uses the same local company key.
The feature-map index lists the existing
feature and full capability IDs.
Each child page states Feature ID: `onboarding`. after its introduction or
product-map link. In feature recipes, show the full ID beside the parsed local
key: - `company`: `onboarding/company` — create a company. In access
companions and Storybook verification guidance, keep the existing local heading
and put Capability ID: `onboarding/company`. beneath it. These labels make
the existing identifiers visible without changing keys, anchors, or ID generation.
Use full capability IDs in cross-feature references, Storybook annotations, tests, issues, PRs, and verification evidence. Both segments use lowercase letters, digits, and hyphens. Keep filenames and keys stable when display titles or navigation labels change; renaming either changes the capability ID.
Entry-point IDs describe a surface, such as web-wizard, and are scoped to their
recipe. Reference them with a recipe link, such as
onboarding.md#web-wizard, and record the
capability exercised separately. Navigation section labels are not capability IDs.
See IDs and references for examples.
Access contract
Every business operation needs both an API and a usable agent entry point for an
actor authorized to perform it. A dedicated tool is optional when REST, the CLI,
an assigned MCP client, or native search_api / call_api already provides the
operation. Record which agent surfaces actually have that path; an installed CLI
or optional MCP package cannot be assumed available to every native/remote run.
Track these independently:
| Dimension | Values and meaning |
|---|---|
| API | present, missing, not-applicable, or unreviewed. Use exact methods/paths; distinguish protocols from REST. |
| Agent access | available, partial, missing, restricted, operator-only, not-applicable, or unreviewed. Name the supported surface and actual entry point. |
| Policy | Actor, action/grant, company/resource/ownership scope, responsible-user intersection, run requirements, work modes, and gates relevant to the operation. |
| Evidence | source-only, verified, failed, blocked, or not-run. Source presence and successful board calls are not agent verification. |
| Review depth | baseline records representative operations and known gaps; operation-reviewed enumerates the capability's meaningful operations and their individual access contracts. |
Broad capabilities such as task properties must be split into operations before they count as operation-reviewed: renaming, metadata edits, assignment, dependencies, and lifecycle changes can use different tools and permission rules. An available read path cannot certify a write path. List/get/create/update/delete, execution/control, credential handling, and resolution are separate where their authority or transport differs. Do not duplicate request schemas from OpenAPI.
Exceptions and restrictions
Presentation-only state, static developer fixtures, and pre-start/local operator
work may use not-applicable for a domain API, with a concrete reason and the
existing local path. When a capability combines shared data with presentation,
split the operations: browser recents do not exempt resource lookup from API
coverage. Promoting local state to a shared feature requires revisiting the entry.
A board-only endpoint is restricted for agent identity, not an automatic
exception or a missing API. Cite the enforced policy and record whether the
agent can request the authorized human's action and observe its result. An
unresolved delegation question remains in Gaps. Company access, a job title,
a personal assistant's OAuth grant, or an accepted interaction does not grant
board identity. Keep budget, approval, secret and execution authority intact.
Check actual route/service authorization and production tool admission. OpenAPI actor labels and scenario/evaluation tool declarations are supporting metadata; record disagreements rather than using them as proof of access. Native API fallback restrictions, tool field/scope limits, and rollout settings are part of the agent path, even when a legacy agent can call the REST endpoint directly.
Companion file format
Each agent-access-map/<area>.md has an H1, a relative link to its product file,
and its feature ID, followed by one H2 backticked local key per product
sub-feature. Each capability starts with its full capability ID and contains
these fields:
- Review:
baselineoroperation-reviewed. - API: presence state and exact operation IDs, or a reasoned exception.
- Agent access: availability state and concrete entry points by surface.
- Policy: relevant permission and runtime boundaries, with source references.
- Evidence: evidence state, reviewed commit and sources or executed proof.
- Verification: allowed/denied assertions and observable result; record what has actually run separately from the proposed recipe.
- Gaps: missing APIs/paths, discovery drift, unreviewed operations or policy
decisions; use
noneonly for the enumerated scope that was reviewed.
For an operation-reviewed capability, use H3 backticked operation IDs and repeat
API, Agent access, Policy, Evidence, Verification and Gaps for each operation.
Use small operation names such as create, update, read, or run-now.
The enclosing capability has Review: operation-reviewed only after its
meaningful operations have been enumerated. The following excerpt shows one
operation; include the others before using that review label:
## `definition`
Review: `operation-reviewed`.
### `create`
API: `present` — POST /api/companies/{companyId}/routines.
Agent access: `available` — agent REST, CLI routine create and native call_api
under the enabled rollout and active-run/mode gates.
Policy: same company; assigneeAgentId must be the calling agent; cite the
routine authorization and native API policy sources.
Evidence: `source-only` — reviewed commit and source links; no live proof.
Verification: `not-run` — create an owned routine; reject assignment to another
agent; inspect saved configuration, attribution and retry behavior.
Gaps: verify ownership and responsible-user resolution with a permitted agent
context; source presence alone does not qualify this operation.
Keeping the maps synchronized
Add entries only for substantial new features under the feature-map scope rule. Routine fixes, polish, refactors, performance work, and test changes do not require map updates. Correct or remove existing text only when behavior or access changes make it materially inaccurate; keep the correction local to the affected recipe or companion. Preserve IDs across renames where the capability is unchanged; update the affected cross-links together. Indexes discover recipes automatically. An API-only change may update the companion without rewriting unchanged user instructions. Update the corresponding chat scenarios when their request, assumptions or expected outcome changes; use multiple cases for meaningfully different starting conditions rather than treating an API path as conversational coverage.
maintain-verification-skill owns reconciliation of both maps. It follows changed source and authorization, checks real agent reachability, and records product gaps without implementing them during a maintenance pass. The creation skill uses this structure. verify-paperclip consumes the relevant recipes and reports evidence/drift; map editing belongs to maintenance.
Run the structural check after map changes:
node scripts/check-maps.mjs
It checks paired areas/IDs, navigation metadata, required fields, and local references. It does not certify endpoint authorization, production bindings, operation completeness, or live behavior. Source audits must check those against the existing API and tool contracts; avoid a second schema catalog or runtime.
For live access proof, use Paperclip's existing API/runner/MCP fixtures or an owned
isolated instance. Use the actual agent identity, target and work mode. Assert the
allowed result and relevant denial (another company/private resource, wrong
owner, missing grant, invalid run, restricted mode or resolver). Mutations also
need persisted state/attribution and retry behavior. Capture evidence using the
existing artifact workflow; keep executed run results
separate from generated maps/generated/coverage.json, which lists page references.
Local authorship and generated indexes
Change only the recipes, access contracts and stories whose behavior or intent
changed. Feature recipes own navigation metadata; stories own small
parameters.paperclip annotations. Keep the feature-map README's readable ID
index aligned with those sources; it does not register entries for generation.
Do not refresh counts in shared READMEs, inventories, fingerprints or review
journals.
node scripts/storybook-catalog.mjs validates and generates aggregate navigation,
Storybook data, verification routes and the page inventory. All outputs live in
ignored maps/generated/, ui/storybook/generated/, and the ignored Storybook
preview.tsx wrapper. Start/build and UI typechecking generate their own inputs.
A clean merged checkout therefore assembles both branches' changes automatically.
Git provides history and diffs. PRs, issues and CI artifacts retain review/run evidence for the named revision. Capability associations do not create whole-file review dependencies. Keep durable scenario limits in the affected recipe or story.
