6c36c07a4f feat(adapters): add GPT-6.1 Sol and refresh shared coding harness pins (#14942)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Agents run through coding-agent adapters and the native runner. Both
use the same installed provider CLIs, model catalogs, and reasoning
controls.
> - OpenAI released GPT-6.1 Sol (`gpt-6.1-sol`) in Codex. Anthropic
released Claude Sonnet 5.5. The static Codex, Bedrock, and OpenCode
catalogs do not list these IDs.
> - The shared provider pack pins Codex 0.156.0 and OpenCode 1.18.32.
The evaluation image pins older Grok, Gemini, Kimi, Cursor, and GitHub
CLI releases. Codex 0.156.0 has no bundled metadata for GPT-6.1 Sol.
> - A model entry without a current harness, or a harness pin without
its runner integrity checks, fails at run time.
> - This pull request adds the verified model IDs and moves the harness
pins, executable digests, controller checks, and image pins together.
> - The benefit is that operators can select the current models, and the
native and local adapters share one current CLI installation.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #13829 and #13838 (the September 22, 2026 model and harness
refresh). Related pull requests: #14993 (merged October 5, 2026,
superseding #14816) added the direct Claude Sonnet 5.5 entry and
refreshed the Claude runtime to Agent SDK 0.3.286 / Claude Code 2.1.286.
This pull request does not change the Claude runtime or the direct
Claude model list; it keeps the #14993 pins and adds only the Bedrock
Sonnet 5.5 ID. After #14993 merged, this branch was rebased onto
`master` (October 5, 2026). The six overlapping pin regions
(`docker/daytona-runner/Dockerfile`, `docker/daytona-runner/README.md`,
`package.json`, `pnpm-workspace.yaml`,
`packages/adapters/claude-local/src/index.test.ts`,
`packages/paperclip-runner/src/backends/native-backend-factory.test.ts`)
were resolved by keeping this pull request's Codex 0.160.0 and OpenCode
1.18.34 pins next to #14993's Claude 0.3.286 / 2.1.286 pins, taking the
union of the Sonnet 5.5 model IDs in the Claude test, and merging both
README paragraphs. The Sonnet 5.5 effort and CLI-gate lines in the
Claude adapter were identical in both pull requests and merged without a
diff. #14917 and #14918 reordered the Claude and Codex model lists
earlier; the new entries sit where those ordering rules put them.

Sources checked on 2026-10-02:

- [OpenAI Codex models](https://learn.chatgpt.com/docs/models): GPT-6.1
Sol uses `gpt-6.1-sol`, supports reasoning efforts from Light to Ultra,
and has Standard and Fast modes at launch. The page also records that
`gpt-5.4` and `gpt-5.4-mini` retired from Codex with ChatGPT sign-in on
August 31, 2026, and that `gpt-5.5` retires on October 14, 2026. Neither
retirement applies to the OpenAI API.
- [Codex CLI releases](https://github.com/openai/codex/releases) 0.157.0
through 0.160.0. The bundled model metadata in the 0.160.0 Linux binary
contains `gpt-6.1-sol`.
- [Claude Sonnet
5.5](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/models/sonnet-5-5/overview):
Bedrock ID `anthropic.claude-sonnet-5-5`, released September 28, 2026.
- [OpenCode releases](https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode/releases)
1.18.33 and 1.18.34 (fixes only). The OpenCode model registry lists both
added provider-qualified IDs.
- npm `latest` tags for `@xai-official/grok` 1.0.46,
`@google/gemini-cli` 0.62.0, and `@moonshot-ai/kimi-code` 2.1.1.
[xAI](https://docs.x.ai/docs/models),
[Google](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/models), and
[Kimi](https://www.kimi.com/code/docs/en/kimi-code/models.html) list no
newer coding models.
- Cursor CLI 2026.10.01-e373342 is the version the official installer
resolves. The pinned digest is the SHA-256 of the versioned Linux x64
archive.
- [GitHub CLI 2.102.0](https://github.com/cli/cli/releases/tag/v2.102.0)
(security fixes). The pinned digest matches the release `checksums.txt`.

## What Changed

- Codex adapter: add `gpt-6.1-sol` to the model list, the Fast mode
list, and the Ultra effort set. It is the first entry: #14918 orders the
list newest version first, and its description notes the ChatGPT app
lists GPT-6.1 Sol first. Update the adapter documentation text.
- Claude adapter: add `us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-5-5` (Bedrock Sonnet
5.5) to the Bedrock catalog in the newest-Sonnet slot after Opus 5.5;
`us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-5` moves into the older-Sonnet group,
matching what `sortClaudeModels` from #14917 produces at runtime. Any
Sonnet 5.5 ID (direct or Bedrock-qualified) now gets the documented
`xhigh` and `max` efforts and requires Claude Code 2.1.284 or later on
the CLI lane (the Claude Code changelog entry for 2.1.284 adds
`claude-sonnet-5-5`). These two lines are identical to the ones #14993
merged, so the branch carries no diff for them.
- OpenCode adapter: add `openai/gpt-6.1-sol` and
`anthropic/claude-sonnet-5-5` to the static fallback catalog.
- Codex runtime pin 0.156.0 → 0.160.0 in the root and workspace
overrides, the runner package, the Codex ACP package patch, the
qualified ACPX profiles, the Linux x64 executable digest, the Rust
provider backend and its tests, the provider-pack manifest pins, the
remote controller pins, the sandbox npm install spec, and the opt-in
qualification scripts.
- Remote Codex compatibility window: upper bound 0.157.0 → 0.161.0. The
minimum stays at 0.149.0.
- OpenCode runtime pin 1.18.32 → 1.18.34 in the runner package, the
materialization script, the server and Rust qualified versions, the eval
and live-session labels, fixtures, and the configuration label.
- Evaluation image (`docker/daytona-runner/Dockerfile`): Grok CLI
1.0.46, Gemini CLI 0.62.0, Kimi Code 2.1.1, Cursor CLI
2026.10.01-e373342 with its digest, GitHub CLI 2.102.0 with its digest,
Codex and OpenCode version probes, and the refreshed lockfile digest.
The Claude Code 2.1.286 probe comes from #14993 and is unchanged here.
- `pnpm-lock.yaml` is not part of this pull request. The repository's
pull request gate rejects lockfile edits, and the refresh bot
regenerates the lockfile on master (the same flow #13838 used). The
Dockerfile `PAPERCLIP_RUNNER_LOCK_SHA256` default is the digest of the
lockfile that `pnpm install --resolution-only --ignore-scripts
--no-frozen-lockfile` (the refresh workflow's command) produces for the
combined pins on the rebased branch (`e1856797…`); that lockfile differs
from master only in the `@openai/codex` 0.160.0 platform packages, the
`@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk` 0.3.286 override that #14993 introduced
(the open refresh-bot pull request #14872 carries that part),
`opencode-ai` 1.18.34 with its Linux x64 baseline, and the `codex-acp`
patch hash.
- Documentation: runner README, runner compatibility doc, environment
variable example, and a new `doc/adapter-model-audit-2026-10-02.md` with
sources and deferred items.
- Tests: Codex adapter catalog, server adapter models, Codex
compatibility window, native session executor pins, runner package
contract, OpenCode materialization, and UI effort options.

Unchanged on purpose: Claude Agent SDK 0.3.286 / Claude Code 2.1.286
(already on `master` from #14993), ACP bridges (`acpx` 0.13.1,
`claude-agent-acp` 0.73.0, `codex-acp` 1.6.2; newer upstream releases
need a separate qualification), the native Grok runtime 1.0.13, Pi
0.84.2 / 0.87.1 (the Pi 1.0 runner stack covers it), and Hermes 0.19.0
(current). `gpt-5.4` and `gpt-5.4-mini` stay in the picker because the
OpenAI API still serves them.

## Verification

Run on Linux x64 with Node 25.9.0 and pnpm 9.15.4 after `pnpm install
--no-frozen-lockfile` (the refreshed lockfile stays local; see above).
The results below were re-run on the rebased head (October 5, 2026) for
the suites the conflict resolution touches; the other rows are from the
original run and are covered by CI on every push:

- Rebased head: `packages/adapters/codex-local` 482 passed;
`packages/adapters/claude-local` 340 passed, 4 failed (`execute.remote`,
`test.probe`, `execute.acp-fallback`, `acp` spawn/env-hardening cases
that fail identically on unchanged `master` in this host environment);
`server` adapter-models + codex-runtime-compatibility +
native-session-executor + adapter-registry 607 passed, 1 failed (the
same adapter-registry override-pause case as before, also failing on
`master` here); `packages/paperclip-runner` native-backend-factory +
qualified-profiles 36 passed; `ui` codex-reasoning-effort +
config-fields + model-utils 19 passed. Rust, full typecheck, build, and
the Docker image are left to CI as before.

- `vitest run` in `packages/adapters/codex-local`: 13 passed. `vitest
run` in `packages/adapters/claude-local` (whole package, including the
new Sonnet 5.5 gate and effort tests): see the latest CI run and the
comment below. `vitest run` in `packages/adapters/opencode-local`: 48
passed, 1 failed (`runtime-config.test.ts` reads the host
`PAPERCLIP_OPENCODE_PROVIDERS` variable; it fails the same way on the
unchanged base).
- `vitest run src/__tests__/adapter-models.test.ts
src/services/native-runtime/codex-runtime-compatibility.test.ts
src/__tests__/adapter-registry.test.ts` in `server`: 84 passed, 1 failed
(`adapter-registry.test.ts` override pause test; it fails the same way
on the unchanged base).
- `vitest run` in `ui` for `codex-reasoning-effort`,
`agent-setup-fields`, `config-fields`, and `ComposerRunSettingsPicker`:
25 passed.
- `node --test test/acpx-codex-package-contract.test.mjs
scripts/materialize-opencode-binary.test.mjs
scripts/runner-protocol-eval-campaign.test.mjs` in
`packages/paperclip-runner`: 23 passed. The package contract test
verifies the installed Codex ACP executable digest and the 0.160.0 patch
pin.
- `vitest run src/drivers/acpx src/backends src/drivers/opencode
src/live/live-session.test.ts` in `packages/paperclip-runner`: 626
passed, 5 failed, 1 skipped. The 5 failures
(`installation-integrity.test.ts` `/proc/self/fd` module loading and one
OpenCode answer-selection test) also fail on the unchanged base under
Node 25; Linux CI runs Node 24.
- `pnpm run test:opencode:qualification` in `packages/paperclip-runner`
against the installed OpenCode 1.18.34 executable: passed.
- `codex --version` from the installed pack prints `codex-cli 0.160.0`.
The Linux x64 executable digest `12eb3e81…652aad` was computed from the
`@openai/codex@0.160.0-linux-x64` archive after checking its registry
`dist.integrity`.
- `pnpm check:token-gates`: all gates clean.
- `pnpm run typecheck:typescript` in `packages/paperclip-runner`:
passed. Package typechecks ran one at a time; see the comment below for
the server and UI results.

Not run here, and needed from CI:

- Rust tests and `pnpm -r typecheck` / `pnpm build` for the server (no
`cargo` in this environment; the server typecheck prepares the runner
vendor build).
- The Docker evaluation image build and the real-binary Codex startup
and session-resume probes (no Docker; the probes need the compiled
`paperclip-runnerd`). The trusted CI runner workflow covers them.
- Authenticated inference with any new model. This change is metadata
and startup validation only.

## Risks

- Codex 0.160.0 changes the bundled model catalog and app-server
behaviour (authoritative provider catalogs, incremental running-turn
tracking). The patched `codex-acp` 1.6.2 bridge is unchanged and
declares `^0.148.0`; it worked with 0.156.0 under the same override. If
CI probes show a protocol change, the pin can return to 0.156.0 by
reverting this pull request.
- The compatibility window upper bound moves to `<0.161.0`. Remote
images with Codex 0.157 to 0.160 become accepted. Older images stay
accepted down to 0.149.0.
- Until the refresh bot lands the regenerated lockfile on master, the
Dockerfile lockfile digest default does not match the committed
lockfile. The trusted CI workflow computes the digest from its own
resolution at build time, so this affects only a local build that passes
no digest.
- Existing saved model selections and effort settings are not changed.
Agents on `gpt-5.4` or `gpt-5.5` with ChatGPT sign-in need a model
change before the OpenAI retirement dates; that is documented, not
enforced.
- Rollout order: deploy the controller and runner from this change
before promoting a sandbox image that carries these pins. Older
controllers reject the new provider-pack pins.

## Model Used

- Claude Fable 5.1 (Anthropic, model ID `claude-fable-5-1`), 1M context
window, adaptive thinking, tool use. The model ran as a Paperclip agent
through the Claude Code harness, performed the web research, edited the
code, and ran the tests listed above.

export const agentConfigurationDoc = `# codex_local agent configuration
Adapter: codex_local
Core fields:
- engine (string, optional): defaults to ACP, including legacy unset/"auto" values. Missing prerequisites and execution failures fail the run without changing engines. Set "cli" to explicitly select the CLI engine.
- cwd (string, optional): default absolute working directory fallback for the agent process (created if missing when possible)
- instructionsFilePath (string, optional): absolute path to a markdown instructions file prepended to stdin prompt at runtime
- model (string, optional): Codex model id
- modelReasoningEffort (string, optional): reasoning effort override passed via -c model_reasoning_effort=...; GPT-6 Astra, GPT-6.1 Sol, GPT-6 Sol, and GPT-5.6 Sol/Terra support low|medium|high|xhigh|max|ultra; GPT-6 Luna and GPT-5.6 Luna support low|medium|high|xhigh|max
- promptTemplate (string, optional): run prompt template
- search (boolean, optional): run codex with --search
- fastMode (boolean, optional): enable Codex Fast mode; supported on GPT-6 (astra/sol/luna), GPT-6.1 Sol, GPT-5.6 (sol/terra/luna), GPT-5.5, GPT-5.4 and passed through for manual model IDs
- dangerouslyBypassApprovalsAndSandbox (boolean, optional): run with bypass flag
- command (string, optional): defaults to "codex"
- extraArgs (string[], optional): additional CLI args
- env (object, optional): KEY=VALUE environment variables
- workspaceStrategy (object, optional): execution workspace strategy; currently supports { type: "git_worktree", baseRef?, branchTemplate?, worktreeParentDir? }
- workspaceRuntime (object, optional): reserved for workspace runtime metadata; workspace runtime services are manually controlled from the workspace UI and are not auto-started by heartbeats
- filesystemScope (string, optional): set to "workspace" to confine local CLI filesystem access with Bubblewrap. Off by default. The workspace and managed CODEX_HOME remain writable; other host paths are hidden.
- filesystemExtraPaths (array, optional): additional absolute host paths exposed inside the workspace sandbox. String entries are read-only; object entries use { path: "/absolute/path", access: "ro" | "rw" }.
- filesystemSandboxCommand (string, optional): Bubblewrap executable name or absolute path; defaults to "bwrap". Linux only.
- networkScope (string, optional): "deny" blocks all network egress; "allowlist" permits only networkAllowlist targets through Paperclip's HTTP(S) proxy. Off by default.
- networkAllowlist (string[], optional): exact hostnames, hostname:port entries, or origin URLs. Include the configured Codex provider origin, such as "api.openai.com" or a custom model provider gateway.
Operational fields:
- timeoutSec (number, optional): run timeout in seconds
- graceSec (number, optional): SIGTERM grace period in seconds
- outputInactivityTimeoutMs (number | null, optional): inactivity monitor around the codex child. Resets whenever the child emits stdout/stderr bytes or, on Linux, its process group shows meaningful CPU, disk I/O, or child-process churn during a silent build. Defaults to 30 * 60_000 ms when unset or non-positive. Set to \`null\` to disable the monitor entirely (only do this for known-slow tasks; the platform-level 1h silent-run safety net still applies). On fire, the adapter sends SIGTERM to the process group, waits 5s, then SIGKILL, and surfaces the run as failed with errorMessage "monitor: no codex activity (output or process) for {N}m {S}s".
- agentCommand (string, optional): ACP server command override used only when engine="acp"; defaults to the package-local codex-acp binary
- mode (string, optional): ACP session mode when engine="acp"; persistent or oneshot
- nonInteractivePermissions (string, optional): ACP non-interactive permission fallback when engine="acp"; deny or fail
- stateDir (string, optional): ACP state directory override when engine="acp"
- warmHandleIdleMs (number, optional): warm ACP process idle timeout when engine="acp"; defaults to 0
Notes:
- filesystemScope and networkScope are spawn-level confinement and are orthogonal to Codex approval/sandbox flags. Both require Bubblewrap on the host and explicit engine="cli"; default or explicit ACP is rejected because ACP confinement is not yet supported. networkScope="allowlist" injects HTTP_PROXY/HTTPS_PROXY for the CLI while its private network namespace blocks direct sockets, so every required provider/API hostname must be listed explicitly.
- Prompts are piped via stdin (Codex receives "-" prompt argument).
- If instructionsFilePath is configured, Paperclip prepends that file's contents to the stdin prompt on every run.
- Codex exec automatically applies repo-scoped AGENTS.md instructions from the active workspace. Paperclip cannot suppress that discovery in exec mode, so repo AGENTS.md files may still apply even when you only configured an explicit instructionsFilePath.
- Paperclip injects desired local skills into the effective CODEX_HOME/skills/ directory at execution time so Codex can discover "$paperclip" and related skills without polluting the project working directory. For new and updated agents, Paperclip assigns an isolated managed home at ~/.paperclip/instances/<id>/companies/<companyId>/agents/<agentId>/codex-home/skills/; when CODEX_HOME is explicitly overridden in adapter config, that override is used instead.
- New and updated codex_local agents persist an empty OPENAI_API_KEY override by default so a host-level OPENAI_API_KEY cannot leak into Codex runs through process inheritance. Explicit CODEX_HOME overrides must not point at the shared company codex-home, $CODEX_HOME, or ~/.codex.
- Some model/tool combinations reject certain effort levels (for example minimal with web search enabled).
- Fast mode is supported on GPT-6 (astra/sol/luna), GPT-6.1 Sol, GPT-5.6 (sol/terra/luna), GPT-5.5, GPT-5.4 and manual model IDs. When enabled for those models, Paperclip applies \`service_tier="fast"\` and \`features.fast_mode=true\`.
- When Paperclip realizes a workspace/runtime for a run, it injects PAPERCLIP_WORKSPACE_* and PAPERCLIP_RUNTIME_* env vars for agent-side tooling.
- The ACP engine keeps its workspace sandbox and enables network access on each turn. Explicit sandbox_workspace_write.network_access overrides in extraArgs (or env.PAPERCLIP_CODEX_ACP_NETWORK_ACCESS="false") disable it; execution-target network denial wins. The bundled ACP patch is needed because upstream mode presets override Codex config.toml on every turn.
- The CLI engine defaults to a writable workspace sandbox with network access for unattended work and Paperclip API calls. It does not enable the dangerous bypass flag. Explicit sandbox modes/profiles and network overrides in extraArgs retain their meaning. An execution-target network denial remains enforced.
- Codex ACP is the preferred auto lane when Node >=24.11.0 and the Codex ACP server are available. It reuses shared ACP prompt/runtime guidance, selected skill materialization into CODEX_HOME/skills, model/reasoning/fast-mode session config, and existing quota-window reporting. Missing ACP prerequisites fail both default and explicit ACP runs with an actionable setup error; the adapter never switches engines automatically.
