DottaandPaperclip adb69e8f09 feat: default new Codex agents to Paperclip Runner on Linux and macOS (#15683) 
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source control plane for agent companies.
> - People choose a harness when creating an agent.
> - The server should resolve that harness to a qualified runner.
> - Codex is the first harness in the staged default rollout.
> - Saved agents must retain their execution choices.
> - New Codex agents therefore use Paperclip Runner on qualified
macOS/Linux targets, with an explicit Legacy override.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #16028, #15555, #15673, #15422, #15631, #15926, #15932, #16149.

The runtime/install prerequisite and release repair are merged. This
slice owns Codex creation, setup, configuration and preservation. Other
harness defaults remain unchanged. It adds no database migration;
incoming master migrations, required maps and regression coverage are
retained.

## What Changed

- Resolve `runner: auto | paperclip | legacy` at the common creation
boundary across onboarding, API/CLI, hires, built-ins, plugins and
imports. Freeze pending hires and export resolved execution choices.
- Preserve existing runners on upgrades, unrelated edits and import
updates, including compatible accounts, workspace settings, Codex effort
and intentional clears.
- Use the underlying harness picker and branding; put the runner
override in Advanced. Use the shared dropdown and update
production-component stories and creation contracts.
- Support qualified Apple Silicon, Intel Mac, Linux x64 and Linux ARM64.
Linux requires GNU libc 2.39+. Disabled, external, unsupported and
unqualified combinations retain their applicable Legacy execution.
- Test the selected runtime/account/model/environment. Ordinary Connect
probes eligible immutable managed targets and refreshes scoped
discovery. Creation/discovery do not provision. Auth, dependency,
incompatible-setting and cleanup failures remain actionable without
changing runners.
- Keep setup probes read-only, preserve local/SSH isolation and resolve
packaged assets before staging credentials. Bound cleanup reads by the
remaining absolute deadline; physically close every owned ingress socket
before endpoint release. Unconfirmed cleanup retains recovery state.
- Preserve validated completed-onboarding callbacks through startup
recovery. First file-producing work belongs to the child task and uses
the existing dependency/block handoff and task-scoped registration.
- Reuse existing E2E fixtures, artifact checks, reporting and controls.
Keep Docker/Cargo/native compilation remote. Paperclip tarballs contain
no Codex payloads; official optional npm platform dependencies remain.

## Verification

Current tested head: `1c03a8815672d82c264a9b08d4ea1984e8fae107`.
**Merge-ready: required CI, fresh review, package qualification, Mac
core acceptance and Test task/follow-up acceptance pass.** The existing
attachment and native-continuity oracles independently verify both Test
downloads, run attribution and unchanged native/provider/workspace
identities. The maintainer authorized a code-owner-review exception for
this PR only. The first Test setup failure and normal Board
completion-review friction are retained below. Actual post-merge
packages and private Cloud distribution remain separate qualification
gates.

- [Current
CI](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38564241625):
all 48 ordinary jobs and required verify/E2E pass. Attempt 1 retained
six simultaneous host-shutdown cancellations. One failed-only retry
passes those six lanes and two aggregates, preserving 40 successes.
Actual integration checkout `53104c1` combines this head with master
`c80`; it is not relabeled as the branch tree. Fresh exact-head Greptile
5/5, 30 resolved threads, no actionable findings.
- [Exact-source package
qualification](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38565287239):
nine applicable jobs pass, nine conditional jobs skip. Four remote
native producers; Linux x64 clean install; Intel Mac, Apple Silicon and
Linux ARM64 native startup/physical cleanup controls. All 18
tarballs/four daemon source/hash/manifest bindings and 343 migrations
through 0344 verify. No Codex payload is packed. These hosted tarballs
are not a published npm canary.
- Normal Apple Silicon installation and credential-free native
startup/cleanup pass using the packaged daemon, with no source build or
provider turn. Fresh installed DB initialization passes. Upgrade
651a→1c03 preserves all three complete execution configs, accounts, ten
recorded run profiles, paused budgets, active incidents, cost summaries
and two historical unpriced events. Historical recovery state is
retained.
- Cleanup regressions: four delayed-read baseline failures become 15
passing deadline/authority controls. No-acknowledgement and prior-error
socket ownership regressions become 12 passing controls. Direct
runtime/server types, maps: 35 areas / 176 IDs, diff checks and
independent reviews pass. Permission/auth/reconnect policy and the
10-second setup budget remain intact.
- Existing source coverage includes creation/selection/imports, pending
approvals, recovery, account/lifecycle handling, mounted forms,
dropdowns and E2E support. Full typechecks/tests/build/token and
applicable Storybook checks pass in the recorded current CI; no
duplicate suite or weakened grader.
- Literal 9546 live Mac proof: ordinary Auto Codex onboarding, useful
document, real completed-child callback/reply, seven successful native
runs, manual follow-up and independently downloaded1,101-byte child
file. Existing Legacy title edit/reload preserves execution; two real
Legacy runs produce independently checked15/34-byte files. These remain
historical source records.
- Current literal 1c03 Mac core acceptance passes independent checks:
ordinary Auto native Codex onboarding without runner override; only
timeout 180 seconds/concurrency 1 saved; six successful native runs and
six serialized turns (maximum overlap 1); both same-task continuity
checks and five mechanical callback checks; actual rendered parent reply
and exact child downloads. The useful handoff advances from revision 1
to 2. Both files are 48 bytes, SHA-256
`8b742bd4e8123a7c078f0a8d9f3449fbfa8a320d7d90be641a2818db3c53d92c` and
`f42db9774fa06e804ab7d596fc8b922a2b638921c418b87d0111151d290a6afe`;
exactly one byte changes and old history remains. The agent is paused
with zero active runs/errors. Both artifact work products have
`isPrimary=false`, and descriptive titles fail a stricter title-helper
assumption; these retained results are scoped editorial follow-up, not
new merge gates. Six source-bound screenshots are uploaded and verified
in the private primary QA report.
- [Literal 9546 managed
proof](https://d1p6rlowie26tp.cloudfront.net/runner-e2e/campaigns/gha-38485488621-1/index.html):
original 19 assertions and completed judge pass, four native turns,
child-bound240-byte file and session/workspace continuity. Checkout
reports a verified generated target-lock mutation; full final porcelain
was not retained. Signed execution-image identity remains separate from
Core source.
- Actual 651a Test deployment succeeds on one owned/pinned target. One
ordinary Auto API-key Connect then fails native cleanup before hire.
Controller turn/drain/suspend completion and service-recorded
environment cleanup are observed; they do not certify physical deletion
or native authority retirement. Failure/recovery/unknown holds are
retained. No Legacy switch or unchanged paid retry. The two source
repairs above require actual treatment.
- [Current immutable Core
preview](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/38570365725)
and matching DB/shared artifacts pass. One owned, pinned Test target
serves exact `1c03`; identical migration history correctly skips the
migrator. Ordinary Auto Codex Connect succeeds and hires native; saved
native selection and QA bounds survive reload. The initial child
preparation attempt fails before provider work, with actual stdout
identifying `renewal_deadline`; its trigger remains unknown and the
failure is retained. Normal Board **Try again** and **Resume** recover
the child to Done, producing a browser-verified 44-byte file, SHA-256
`0a8458b1efcc2d7a0d815689458c4caab039a46c7c7a3e5805de6bc8b1a96ecc`. The
actual parent callback reports the completed child document/file. The
existing validator requires a parent-owned attachment, so recovery
enters normal Review; after byte checking, normal **Approve completion**
reaches parent Done. No forced status or duplicate parent file is used.
The validator is unchanged from integrated and current master.
Autonomous initial callback-to-Done is not proven. The same-child
follow-up completes document revision 2 and publishes a second
independently downloaded 44-byte file, SHA-256
`22022257300fae762784632d08d3bbe0bab61e2ce81f91864a14dcd7aa464591`; only
the revision digit changes. The unchanged existing native-continuity and
attachment oracles pass. All ten recorded runs are terminal: nine native
successes and the retained pre-provider setup failure. The QA agent is
paused with zero active runs. The pre-existing parent evidence scope
mismatch is a separate follow-up, with ordinary completion review
exercised rather than a forced status or relaxed validation. This
unsigned Core preview remains distinct from post-merge private Cloud
composition.

## Risks

- Saved agents are not migrated. Explicit runner changes use normal
configuration/session rules; historical runs retain their recorded
execution.
- Native readiness depends on verified assets and server-owned target
qualification. A Legacy probe, HTTP200 or successful account save cannot
prove native readiness.
- Recovery exceptions remain restricted to validated
completed-onboarding reports; process-loss, ownership and terminal-state
safeguards remain active. Unexecuted live journeys stay open.
- Linux ARM paid tasks, Windows, Alpine and 32-bit ARM remain deferred.
Cold Cargo cache misses are recorded; no warm-cache speedup is claimed.
- Historical invoices/physical cleanup remain unconfirmed and held.
After merge, exact published npm canary, signed standard image/migrator,
private composition and serving/live acceptance still require
qualification. Production deployment/default promotion is not
authorized.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex, GPT-6 family, with reasoning, tools, code execution and
parallel agents. Exact serving snapshot and context-window size are not
exposed.

# Onboarding and first work — agent access
Product map: [Onboarding and first work](../feature-map/onboarding.md).
Review date: 2026-10-12. Source commit: `f981fa3cc10cb8663a87dec60345fbff46d54d0a`.
This is a source-reviewed baseline of representative operations and known gaps.
Each capability needs operation-level review before its entire scope can be
qualified. No live agent execution is claimed. Follow the [map contract](../README.md)
for format, permission checks, evidence and maintenance.
Scoped runner-default source review: 2026-10-12 at
`eee0534154eaf5d0d3f2bbc97c1e24d86f34a5a5`, limited to first-agent selection,
selected-runtime validation and draft restoration. Unrelated baseline entries
retain the original source commit; no live agent verification is added.
## `instance`
Review: `baseline`.
API: `not-applicable` — Bootstrapping an instance cannot depend solely on an API served
by that not-yet-running instance.
Agent access: `operator-only` — Existing CLI onboard/run/doctor / test-drive.
Policy: Instance setup is operator work; company creation is board; agent creation/task
creation retain their individual permissions.
Evidence: `source-only` —
[implementation](../../ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.tsx#L279) at the reviewed
commit above.
Verification: `not-run` — exercise the listed local workflow in an authorized, owned
operator environment. Verify its isolation and result; do not count local machine
authority as company-agent API access.
Gaps: Bootstrapping an instance cannot depend solely on an API served by that
not-yet-running instance.
## `company`
Review: `baseline`.
API: `present` — representative operation IDs:
- `POST /api/companies`.
- `POST /api/companies/{companyId}/agents`.
Agent access: `partial` — Board company creation; authorized in-company agent hiring
API.
Policy: Instance setup is operator work; company creation is board; agent creation/task
creation retain their individual permissions.
Evidence: `source-only` —
[implementation](../../ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.tsx#L279) at the reviewed
commit above.
Verification: `not-run` — exercise a listed permitted operation with actual agent
credentials/run context; inspect its result and applicable persistence/attribution.
Assert the relevant denied actor, owner, company or mode from Policy. Review the
remaining operations before qualifying the whole capability.
Gaps: API building blocks exist; an ordinary agent cannot create its parent company with
a company key.
## `adapter`
Review: `baseline`.
API: `present` — representative operation IDs:
- `GET /api/companies/{companyId}/adapters/{type}/models`.
- `POST /api/companies/{companyId}/adapters/{type}/test-environment`.
Agent access: `partial` — Permitted agent/model API; operator
provider-account/environment setup.
Policy: Instance setup is operator work; company creation is board; agent creation/task
creation retain their individual permissions.
The wizard selects the Codex harness and lets the server resolve an automatic
new-agent runner; explicit Legacy remains available. Supported-platform and
immutable sandbox evidence follow [environment probe policy](./execution-environments.md#probe).
Creation/discovery do not provision a target to determine this default. Adapter
setup validation requires `agents:create`, plus saved-agent update access when
testing an existing agent; interactive account login additionally requires a
board user and owner-bound session. An agent's right to hire is not login or
instance-environment administration authority.
For fresh managed Codex Auto setup, the wizard's explicit Connect path can call
`POST /api/environments/{environmentId}/probe?companyId={companyId}` before
selected-runtime testing, then refresh scoped adapter discovery. This reuses the
existing board instance-admin/local-implicit probe gate; `agents:create` alone
is insufficient. A 403, absent proof, changed configuration, missing response
identity or unconfirmed cleanup remains visible. No probe is added to creation
or discovery, no agent/company grant is broadened, and provider authentication
errors never cause an automatic runner switch.
Native setup derives outer sandbox isolation from the server-resolved execution
target, as task execution does. This is an internal transport choice, not a
request/configuration permission. Local and SSH setup keep Codex isolation;
caller-supplied environment flags do not authorize an external sandbox. Existing
company, account, probe and registration-cleanup gates still apply.
The bounded hello probe retains read-only permissions and no dynamic tools. Its
trusted launch skips project-instruction discovery in the new, empty setup
workspace. This grants no filesystem or networking permission and does not
change instruction discovery for ordinary task execution.
Scoped source review: 2026-10-13, exact baseline
`1a0ca66242121e39d88455aa2b52a07acc4a07d9` plus the privately composed onboarding
correction. [Wizard controls](../../ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.test.tsx)
and [existing Product E2E observer controls](../../tests/runner-e2e/first-task.test.ts)
exercise mocked allowed/denied setup and sticky unknown cost coverage. They do
not prove live actor authorization or provider execution. The explicit manual
`confirmation-replies.runner-codex.daytona.task-card-accept` case requires an
eligible immutable OCI target and the existing probe authority, two identified
setup leases and separately authorized paid/cleanup reservations. Its fixture
neither prequalifies the environment nor creates the agent. Actual Cloud named
snapshot binding, warm/cold signup and live allowed/denied agent checks remain
`not-run`.
Evidence: `source-only` —
[implementation](../../ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.tsx#L279) at the reviewed
commit above.
Scoped Evidence: `source-only` — [wizard/default selection](../../ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.tsx),
[creation resolver](../../server/src/services/agent-runner-selection.ts) and
[setup/login authorization](../../server/src/routes/agents.ts) at the scoped
commit. Existing agent/approval execution preservation follows
[hiring access](./agents.md#hire); no live onboarding proof is claimed here.
Verification: `not-run` — exercise a listed permitted operation with actual agent
credentials/run context; inspect its result and applicable persistence/attribution.
Assert the relevant denied actor, owner, company or mode from Policy. Review the
remaining operations before qualifying the whole capability.
Gaps: Account authorization, environment administration and model selection need
separate checks.
Verify automatic onboarding without a post-hire runner change, explicit Legacy,
saved configuration after reload and the actual selected runtime's useful task
plus follow-up. Assert denied agent login/probe and foreign-company account or
environment access separately. These agent-context checks remain `not-run`.
## `first-task`
Review: `baseline`.
API: `present` — representative operation IDs:
- `POST /api/companies/{companyId}/issues`.
Agent access: `available` — Native create_task / agent REST / CLI issue.
Policy: Instance setup is operator work; company creation is board; agent creation/task
creation retain their individual permissions.
Evidence: `source-only` —
[implementation](../../ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.tsx#L279) at the reviewed
commit above.
Verification: `not-run` — exercise a listed permitted operation with actual agent
credentials/run context; inspect its result and applicable persistence/attribution.
Assert the relevant denied actor, owner, company or mode from Policy. Review the
remaining operations before qualifying the whole capability.
Gaps: Task creation is agent-accessible where permitted; scheduling/readiness does not
follow from successful creation.
The Codex first-task fixture's operator cost guard uses the existing board
agent-configuration PATCH before admitting work. This is not evidence of agent
permission to update its runtime; the listed agent-context checks remain not-run.
Scoped source review: 2026-10-13, the first-task asset correction against
`ea6c8eb5e16d61111968f633a66748b397b64a3e`. The existing
[first-task instructions](../../server/src/onboarding-assets/first-task/skills/first-task/SKILL.md)
send file-producing work through the child's own execution and existing
dependency/block controls. Native `register_deliverable` retains its current-task
binding; this adds no cross-task file-registration authority or permission.
Document-only work may use the existing child-document API inline, and plan-only
approval does not authorize implementation. The existing asset tests check
wording only. The literal baseline live attempt failed child-file delivery and
completion reporting; revised live authorization and execution remain `not-run`.
## `resume`
Review: `baseline`.
API: `not-applicable` — No server onboarding-draft API for this browser-local state;
classify explicitly or intentionally make it a cross-client product feature.
Agent access: `not-applicable` — Browser localStorage wizard draft; persisted resources
use their domain APIs.
Policy: Instance setup is operator work; company creation is board; agent creation/task
creation retain their individual permissions.
Evidence: `source-only` —
[implementation](../../ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.tsx#L279) at the reviewed
commit above.
Verification: `not-run` — use the product recipe for the local/developer surface. Verify
listed shared-resource reads separately; local presentation alone is not agent API
evidence.
Gaps: No server onboarding-draft API for this browser-local state; classify explicitly
or intentionally make it a cross-client product feature.
Scoped source review of [draft restoration](../../ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.tsx)
preserves harness/runner intent and invalidates obsolete setup-test results after
a selection change. Browser draft continuity is not API or live-agent evidence,
and opening a saved Legacy agent does not apply new-agent defaults.
The initial matching route opening preserves the authorized saved wizard step
on bare and company-prefixed reloads. Explicit new-company or changed-company
openings retain their navigation override and clear foreign company resource
IDs. [Existing component controls](../../ui/src/components/OnboardingWizard.test.tsx)
exercise these presentation and account boundaries. This scoped correction adds
no server draft API, agent grant or proof of live actor authorization. The
managed first-task eval still reloads before Get started and remains a separate
live acceptance gate. The existing mocked-login browser case also checks the
same company-scoped active session and saved selection through route reopening
and a real reload, with one login start and no pending-login hire. These fixture
assertions do not prove server authorization or live credential use.
