DottaandClaude Opus 5.5 b7446969d7 fix(evals): give choose-capable-target a saveable computer and grade it structurally (#20881)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The chat catalog evals check that agents answer real user questions
through the product.
> - The case `execution-environments.choose-capable-target` asks "Which
computer can run Morgan with Claude Code?" while environment reads are
board-only.
> - Its setup saved a built-in fake sandbox as the "unsupported"
computer. The product refuses to save fake sandboxes (since #4449), so
setup failed with 422 before any agent run, and the test API hid the
reason.
> - No computer that the product can save is advertised as unable to run
Claude Code, so the original contrast cannot be built through supported
APIs.
> - This pull request changes the contrast to advertised support versus
runtime health, grades the reply by structure instead of keywords, and
makes setup failures show the product's validation reason.
> - The benefit is that the case can measure its user promise, and a
future setup 422 says why.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened**

In the full chat catalog run, setup failed with `POST
/api/companies/<id>/environments returned 422; body withheld`. A focused
server test shows the reason: "Built-in fake sandbox environments are
reserved for internal probes and cannot be saved." The fixture payload
was `driver: "sandbox", config: { provider: "fake" }`.

**Expected behavior**

Setup builds its computers only through supported APIs, the agent run
starts, and the grader checks the user promise without reply keywords. A
setup validation failure states the product's reason.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Run
`chat-features.runner-opencode.local.execution-environments.choose-capable-target`
on master.
2. Setup posts a fake sandbox environment and gets 422.
3. `cd server && pnpm exec vitest run
src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts -t "rejects persisted fake
sandbox environments"` shows the same rule.

## What Changed

- `runtime-capability-choice.ts`: setup saves an SSH computer on a
reserved `.invalid` host (no key, never probed) beside the local fixture
computer. Production capabilities advertise Claude Code on both. The
`enableEnvironments` experimental setting is still set only through
`PATCH /api/instance/settings/experimental` and restored in cleanup.
- Grader: removed the reply regex and keyword checks. New checks: agent
gets 403 on capabilities and probe; the reply renders a link to
`/<prefix>/company/settings/instance/environments` (or a target's edit
page); the reply has no board-only SSH settings (host, user, path);
targets (including status and metadata) and the worker are unchanged;
exactly one chat turn and no tasks. `verifyResult` clicks the rendered
link and checks that the page shows both computers and loads the same
capabilities.
- `execution-environments.yaml`: context changed from "one target
supports the harness and another does not" to support versus health,
with the reason. Recorded in `chat-full-catalog-testops-manifest.json`
`changedFields`, pinned in the manifest test, and the inventory digest
is updated.
- `oracleVersion` is now
`paperclip.chat-catalog.runtime-capability-choice.v2` in code and in
`chat-catalog-descriptors.json`; `sourceFiles` adds
`internal-support.ts`, `server/src/routes/authz.ts` and
`server/src/services/environment-config.ts`.
- `api.ts`: cookie-session 400/409/422 failures now include the
product's `error` message, at most 240 characters, with request string
values (8 or more characters), the session cookie and long token-like
strings redacted. `details` and all other statuses stay withheld.
- Includes a cherry-pick of #20880 (agent environment denials link the
environment settings page). Without it, the agent has no route to give.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run --config tests/runner-e2e/vitest.config.ts` on
`runtime-capability-choice.test.ts`, `runtime-computers.test.ts`,
`chat-catalog-contract.test.ts`, `chat-catalog-consistency.test.ts`,
`api-private-transport.test.ts`, `api.test.ts`,
`api-response-reading.test.ts`: 73 passed.
- Grader calibration: valid and reworded replies with the settings link
pass. Missing, unprefixed, wrong-prefix, cross-origin and wrong-page
links fail. Replies with the SSH host, user or path fail. Unsupported
capability, reachable host, 200 boundary, changed target or worker, an
extra run and a created task fail.
- `node --test
tests/runner-e2e/chat-full-catalog-testops-manifest.test.mjs`: 10
passed.
- `node tests/runner-e2e/source-sdk-public-inputs.mjs <HEAD> --check`:
unchanged.
- `npx tsc --noEmit -p tests/runner-e2e`: no errors in changed files.
- Paid run still needed:
`chat-features.runner-opencode.local.execution-environments.choose-capable-target`.

## Risks

- Premise change: the case no longer has a saved computer that is
advertised as unable to run Claude Code, because the product cannot save
one. The "avoid an incompatible target" clause stays in the expected
outcome, but no saved target exercises it.
- The reply's claims about health are not graded by words. A reviewer
must read the paid run's reply.
- The 400/409/422 reason can show product text that the test API hid
before. It is bounded and redacted.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), tool use and code
execution in Claude Code.
