Priya RamanandPaperclip d0c4968e97 fix(sandbox): make a post-commit response-read failure non-retryable
The bridge forward reads the host response body after the fetch resolves. A
mutating request may have committed on the host by then. A body over the size
limit, or a stream read error, made the forward reject. The duplex broker and
the file bridge both mapped that rejection to a retryable 502. A retry then sent
a new request id outside the broker deduplication set, so the host applied the
mutation twice.

The forward now catches a response-body read failure and returns a non-retryable
504 with the indeterminate outcome marker. The in-sandbox server maps the
indeterminate 504 to a non-retryable 409 for both transports, so a caller never
repeats a possibly-committed mutation. Add broker and integration coverage.

@paperclipai/adapter-utils

Shared utilities for Paperclip adapters: process spawning, environment injection, sandbox/SSH transport, workspace sync, and the round-trip helpers that move code between the local execution-workspace cwd and wherever the agent actually runs.

For the adapter-author guide see docs/adapters/creating-an-adapter.md and the in-repo notes at packages/adapters/AUTHORING.md.

No-remote-git contract

The local execution-workspace cwd is the only persistence boundary across runs. No adapter may depend on a git remote for cross-run state.

Adapters that run the agent on a different host should use the SSH round-trip helpers in src/ssh.ts:

  • prepareWorkspaceForSshExecution({ spec, localDir, remoteDir }) — bundles the local cwd (tracked files, dirty edits, untracked additions, and the git history needed to reconstruct it) to remoteDir before the run starts. Runs with no git remote configured.
  • restoreWorkspaceFromSshExecution({ spec, localDir, remoteDir, ... }) — syncs the remote cwd back into localDir after the run, including any new commits the agent created. Also runs with no git remote configured.

prepareRemoteManagedRuntime in src/remote-managed-runtime.ts wraps both calls for adapters that want a per-run remote workspace and an automatic restoreWorkspace() finally hook.

The invariant is pinned by the no-remote-git contract case in src/ssh-fixture.test.ts, which asserts that a remote-only commit propagates to the local worktree through the prepare → restore round-trip with no git remote configured at any point. Do not regress that test.
