Devin FoleyandPaperclip 6a43890326 Fix image attachments in remote native workspaces (#20939)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip manages AI agents and their work.
> - Native runs must receive the files that users attach to their
messages.
> - Remote wake preparation returned file metadata without readable
bytes.
> - The historical chat reader also rejected every remote target.
> - Command-backed sandboxes and SSH targets already provide a bound
command transport.
> - This pull request stages verified files through that transport and
clears them after the turn.
> - Agents can then open attached images with their normal image reader.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #19740. This change covers SSH and command-backed sandbox
execution, including Daytona. Plugin Runner tasks without a command
transport still need a separate versioned file-transfer contract. This
PR does not close that broader issue. The open attachment-recovery PR
#20778 concerns provider-session attachment journals, not input files.

**What happened?**

A user uploaded an image and sent it to an agent. The remote native run
received its filename and size, but no readable file. Wake preparation
reported `remote_workspace_staging_unsupported`. The historical read
fallback also refused remote execution.

**Expected behavior**

Copy the exact admitted attachment into the bound remote workspace. Let
the provider read the image. Preserve company, task, source-comment,
size, and hash checks. Clear temporary file contents when the turn ends.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Select a native agent on a command-backed sandbox or Linux SSH
environment.
2. Attach a PNG to its current task or in-app chat message.
3. Ask the agent to inspect it.
4. Check that wake preparation supplies a readable workspace-relative
image path.

## What Changed

- Add a remote staging owner with bounded commands, stdin transfer, hash
verification, opaque paths, and safe image extensions.
- Confine Linux filesystem operations through directory descriptors.
Refuse symlinks and replacement files during cleanup.
- Bind current wake files and authorized historical external-chat reads
to the selected lease transport.
- Join active writes during cancellation. Retain failed cleanup work
until scope close.
- Tell providers to open image files with an image-capable reader.
- Handle stdin stream errors in the shared SSH transport. Failed uploads
return failure instead of raising an unhandled EPIPE or reporting
success.
- Add database, transport, cancellation, integrity, cleanup,
executor-wiring, and Linux filesystem regressions. Document support and
limits.

## Verification

- Prepared an isolated source checkout with `node
scripts/agent-preflight.mjs --skip-rust-debug`.
- Focused suites: `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/native-runtime/remote-attachment-staging.test.ts
server/src/services/native-runtime/native-runner-file-handoff.test.ts
server/src/services/native-runtime/chat-attachment-read.test.ts` — 74
passed, 4 Linux-only tests skipped.
- Executor checks: `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/services/native-runtime/native-session-executor.test.ts -t
'attachment staging to the remote|stages from the authenticated|verifies
frozen staged admission'` — 7 passed.
- Server typecheck: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`,
followed by the server layered check after the final changes.
- `git diff --check` passed. The local secret, PII, and
private-reference diff scan found no matches.
- `pnpm verify` returned exit 2 because the documentation change
requires broad CI. No full local suite is claimed.
- The four Linux filesystem tests were skipped locally because this
macOS host has no available Docker daemon. Linux CI executed all 17
remote-staging tests successfully, including those four confinement
tests: [server shard
10](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/43102035096/job/130796646266).
- SSH regression: the real pipe test reproduced two unhandled EPIPE
errors before the fix, plus false success when the peer exited with code
zero. The fixed SSH tests and existing argv tests pass (12 tests). The
remote-staging transport suite also passes (13 tests; 4 Linux tests
require CI).
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck` passed after the
SSH change.
- Final revision `1c5a9288b8d5f267ddeac84638ff6075dbbbf8ec`: all
applicable CI jobs passed, including typecheck, build, general and
serialized tests, Runner checks, canary dry run, and all eight browser
shards. [CI
run](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/43102035096).
Linux CI also passed all 6 native SSH tests: [server shard
5](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/43102035096/job/130796646349).
- Greptile reviewed that final revision at 5/5 with no remaining
findings. The review thread is resolved. GitHub reports the PR mergeable
with a clean merge state.
- No live model turn or deployed release is claimed.

## Risks

- Remote staging requires Linux, Node, and a command transport bound to
the selected lease. Plugin Runner tasks without that transport retain
their unavailable result.
- Each file uses bounded independent commands. Slow transports can delay
preparation or cleanup. File bytes stay out of command arguments and
provider-facing error messages.
- An abrupt controller or remote-host failure can bypass cleanup.
Ephemeral sandbox disposal remains the backstop. Retained files are
never blindly overwritten or deleted.
- Previous-release provider sessions and checkpoints retain their format
and identity. New turns receive newly staged input files. Existing
restart-admission checks still apply. No migration, runner-image change,
or account-credential transfer is required.

## Model Used

OpenAI `gpt-6.1-sol` through the Codex harness in T3 Code, with xhigh
reasoning, repository inspection, code execution, and tests. No
subagents were used. The context-window size is not exposed by this
runtime.
