## Thinking Path > - Paperclip manages AI agents and keeps their work attached to tasks. > - Chat connectors carry user messages and agent replies between a provider and those tasks. > - Each extra startup and context reset delays a reply. > - Managed account metadata was lost during adapter decoding, so compatible follow-ups started fresh. > - This branch fixes the reset and measures the remaining preparation, execution, and delivery costs. > - The changes must preserve account isolation, authorization, durable output, and recovery ownership. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Refs #13699. The related service lifecycle work in #13410 and #13408 is separate; this branch focuses on task-bound chat response latency. **What happened?** Managed AI follow-ups started new provider sessions even after their configuration fingerprint stayed stable. The Codex codec removes unknown fields. The resume check then read the removed credential identity and treated it as a credential change. **Expected behavior** Compatible follow-ups resume the correct provider session. Changes to credentials, responsible users, permissions, or task configuration retain their reset behavior. **Steps to reproduce** 1. Use a Slack connector with a managed AI connection. 2. Send a message, then send a same-thread follow-up. 3. Inspect the configuration reset reason and the provider session identity. **Paperclip version or commit** Reproduced on `2a99de80ec52db01eead901f28323926ceaf3c1d`. **Deployment mode** Cloud staging with a native Codex runner. ## What Changed - Read saved credential identity before adapter decoding discards it. - Remove the internal credential identity from adapter-facing session params. - Test the real Codex codec and missing, changed, or unmanaged identity cases. - Preserve configured warm Codex runners and flush refreshed credentials after every turn. - Fence detached or closing session handles from successor credential ownership. - Stage current Codex launch credentials after restoring durable session history, uploading launch assets only once. - Reuse a runner binary already in the retained sandbox only when its SHA-256 matches the controller-owned artifact; still verify required capabilities before launch. - Lock the task before the run when saving results, preventing deadlocks with task updates. - Scope reusable projectless sandboxes to the company, environment, task, agent, and runtime configuration; verify Daytona sentinels for that scope. - Admit a new authorized chat message after a fully committed failed run and verified process cleanup. - Send compact deltas for verified plain-text Slack continuations. Match the actual prior run and current comment identity/body; exclude edited historical comments and prior agent output, preserve genuine brief edits and the full bootstrap fallback. - Keep attachments, omitted input, questions, approvals, recovery, and other providers on their existing framing. - Document managed session compatibility, credential lifecycle, and compact continuation boundaries. ## Verification - Workspace/session coverage: 156 tests passed. - Native session and credential ownership coverage: 390 tests passed, including exact artifact reuse, mismatches, failed probes, timeouts, and explicit artifact overrides. - Explicit continuation and durable chat authorization coverage: 172 tests passed. - Session resume and launch preparation coverage: 416 tests passed. - Result persistence coverage: 15 tests passed. The new concurrency test reproduced a PostgreSQL deadlock before the lock-order fix. - Environment lifecycle coverage: 92 tests passed, including projectless reuse and task/agent isolation at both selection and atomic handoff. - Daytona plugin coverage: 237 tests passed; 6 gated tests skipped. Standalone plugin build passed. - Compact Slack continuation and native resume coverage: 69 tests passed, including full-bootstrap retention, matching message authors/bodies, current-delivery selection, rejection of duplicate identities and historical comments, brief edits, and attachment/recovery fallbacks. - Final frozen-head `pnpm test:run` on repository-supported Node 26: 668 suites passed, 3 skipped, 1 failed; 12,797 tests passed and 82 skipped. The sole failure was a local `socket hang up` in `issue-recovery-actions.test.ts`, not an authorization assertion mismatch. All 57 tests in that suite passed three fresh reruns, and the suite passed latest-head CI. The full local invocation is therefore not claimed green. - An earlier Node 24 full run exposed an unrelated macOS symlink-cleanup failure; that 11-test catalog suite passes on Node 26 and in CI. No test behavior or timeout was relaxed. - Full local typecheck and build passed. Latest-head CI is green; Greptile is 5/5 with no unresolved review threads. - Two real Slack baseline replies took 25.1 and 24.6 seconds (24.9-second mean). Three same-thread signed probes on this head took 23.8, 23.9, and 22.7 seconds (23.5-second mean). This is a small sample and a modest wall-clock improvement, not a large or statistically established speedup. - In that same thread, uncached provider input fell from 8,514 tokens before compact input to 694–765 tokens afterward. The current delivery uses a 362-character delta; the full 19–21k-character bootstrap remains available for failed resume. Verified runner artifact preparation fell from about 1.2 seconds to 0.6 seconds. - A fresh thread created a separate task, sandbox, and provider session with full bootstrap (24.4 seconds). Its follow-up reused its own sandbox/session and compact input (28.3 seconds, including 16 seconds of model execution). Model variability and process startup remain substantial. - A signed duplicate webhook produced exactly one user comment, one successful run, and one final Slack reply. Slack's API independently confirmed the actual replies and a public task URL without an internal or pool hostname. - Earlier signed probes verified recovery after a failed run and reuse across a server deployment. The final idle test observed Daytona report the sandbox as stopped, then delivered a new reply in 19.9 seconds using the same sandbox/provider-session identity and compact input. Slack’s API confirmed that reply. - Live probes use signed synthetic inbound webhooks and real outbound Slack delivery, read back through Slack’s API. The final browser recheck found the Mac locked and the Slack tab blocked by another extension, so this is not claimed as full UI E2E proof. - This is a review branch. Do not merge until the maintainer reviews it. ## Risks - Incorrect session reuse could mix account or task context. Missing or changed identities continue to reset, and existing authorization checks remain in place. - Warm mode remains opt-in. Remote warm mode requires a reusable sandbox lease. Retained processes keep credentials until they close, so idle expiry and ownership fences are required. - A fresh user message may continue after a committed provider failure. Approval, current authorization, process termination, and prior-result checks remain required. - Projectless sandbox reuse is task- and agent-scoped. Missing or mismatched ownership cannot replace an existing lease; existing workspace-scoped leases keep their scope. Opt-in reuse retains a sandbox per task/agent, so provider auto-stop and deletion policies still determine idle compute and storage costs. Fleet defaults are unchanged. - Compact prompts apply only after proven resume and a matching prior-run delta. Missing or specialized context falls back to full input; fresh sessions always receive the full bootstrap. - No schema or migration changes. ## Model Used OpenAI GPT-6 through Codex, with code editing, tool use, and test execution. The exact serving model ID and context-window size are not exposed by this session. ## Checklist - [x] I have included a thinking path that traces from project context to this change - [x] I have specified the model used (with version and capability details) - [x] I have checked ROADMAP.md and confirmed this PR does not duplicate planned core work - [x] I have searched GitHub for duplicate or related PRs and linked them above - [x] I have either (a) linked existing issues with `Fixes: #` / `Closes #` / `Refs #` OR (b) described the issue in-PR following the relevant issue template - [x] I have not referenced internal/instance-local Paperclip issues or links (only public GitHub `#NNN` / `github.com/paperclipai/paperclip` URLs) - [x] My branch name describes the change (e.g. `docs/...`, `fix/...`) and contains no internal Paperclip ticket id or instance-derived details - [ ] I have run tests locally and they pass - [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable - [x] I have updated relevant documentation to reflect my changes - [x] I have considered and documented any risks above - [x] All Paperclip CI gates are green - [x] Greptile is 5/5 with no open P2s, recommendations, or follow-ups - [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before requesting merge --------- Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
