[codex] Improve workspace runtime and navigation ergonomics (#3680)
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - That operator experience depends not just on issue chat, but also on
how workspaces, inbox groups, and navigation state behave over
long-running sessions
> - The current branch included a separate cluster of workspace-runtime
controls, inbox grouping, sidebar ordering, and worktree lifecycle fixes
> - Those changes cross server, shared contracts, database state, and UI
navigation, but they still form one coherent operator workflow area
> - This pull request isolates the workspace/runtime and navigation
ergonomics work into one standalone branch
> - The benefit is better workspace recovery and navigation persistence
without forcing reviewers through the unrelated issue-detail/chat work
## What Changed
- Improved execution workspace and project workspace controls, request
wiring, layout, and JSON editor ergonomics
- Hardened linked worktree reuse/startup behavior and documented the
`worktree repair` flow for recovering linked worktrees safely
- Added inbox workspace grouping, mobile collapse, archive undo,
keyboard navigation, shared group-header styling, and persisted
collapsed-group behavior
- Added persistent sidebar order preferences with the supporting DB
migration, shared/server contracts, routes, services, hooks, and UI
integration
- Scoped issue-list preferences by context and added targeted UI/server
tests for workspace controls, inbox behavior, sidebar preferences, and
worktree validation
## Verification
- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/sidebar-preferences-routes.test.ts
ui/src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx
ui/src/components/ProjectWorkspaceSummaryCard.test.tsx
ui/src/components/WorkspaceRuntimeControls.test.tsx
ui/src/api/workspace-runtime-control.test.ts`
- `server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts` was attempted, but
the embedded Postgres suite self-skipped/hung on this host after
reporting an init-script issue, so it is not counted as a local pass
here
## Risks
- Medium: this branch includes migration-backed preference storage plus
worktree/runtime behavior, so merge review should pay attention to state
persistence and worktree recovery semantics
- The sidebar preference migration is standalone, but it should still be
watched for conflicts if another migration lands first
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex coding agent (GPT-5-class runtime in Codex CLI; exact
deployed model ID is not exposed in this environment), reasoning
enabled, tool use and local code execution enabled
## 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)
- [ ] I have run tests locally and they pass
- [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable
- [ ] If this change affects the UI, I have included before/after
screenshots
- [x] I have updated relevant documentation to reflect my changes
- [x] I have considered and documented any risks above
- [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before
requesting merge

[codex] Improve workspace navigation and runtime UI (#4089)
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip agents do real work in project and execution workspaces.
> - Operators need workspace state to be visible, navigable, and
copyable without digging through raw run logs.
> - The branch included related workspace cards, navigation, runtime
controls, stale-service handling, and issue-property visibility.
> - These changes share the workspace UI and runtime-control surfaces
and can stand alone from unrelated access/profile work.
> - This pull request groups the workspace experience changes into one
standalone branch.
> - The benefit is a clearer workspace overview, better metadata copy
flows, and more accurate runtime service controls.
## What Changed
- Polished project workspace summary cards and made workspace metadata
copyable.
- Added a workspace navigation overview and extracted reusable project
workspace content.
- Squared and polished the execution workspace configuration page.
- Fixed stale workspace command matching and hid stopped stale services
in runtime controls.
- Showed live workspace service context in issue properties.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/ProjectWorkspaceSummaryCard.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/project-workspaces-tab.test.ts
ui/src/components/Sidebar.test.tsx
ui/src/components/WorkspaceRuntimeControls.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx`
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/workspace-commands.test.ts
--config /dev/null` because the root Vitest project config does not
currently include `packages/shared` tests.
- Split integration check: merged after runtime/governance,
dev-infra/backups, and access/profiles with no merge conflicts.
- Confirmed this branch does not include `pnpm-lock.yaml`.
## Risks
- Medium risk: touches workspace navigation, runtime controls, and issue
property rendering.
- Visual layout changes may need browser QA, especially around smaller
screens and dense workspace metadata.
- No database migrations are included.
> For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and
discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5.4 tool-enabled coding model, agentic
code-editing/runtime with local shell and GitHub CLI access; exact
context window and reasoning mode are not exposed by the Paperclip
harness.
## 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 run tests locally and they pass
- [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable
- [x] If this change affects the UI, I have included before/after
screenshots
- [x] I have updated relevant documentation to reflect my changes
- [x] I have considered and documented any risks above
- [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before
requesting merge
