Add optional bridge proxy request logging via PAPERCLIP_BRIDGE_DEBUG (#5140)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents on remote sandboxes call back into the Paperclip control
plane via a
> callback bridge — the host process running the bridge proxies HTTP
requests
>   from the sandbox to the Paperclip API
> - When something goes wrong end-to-end (sandbox can't reach Paperclip,
requests
> timing out, malformed responses), it's hard to tell whether the bridge
> processed the request, what URL/method it used, and what the upstream
>   responded with
> - There was no built-in way to log bridge proxy traffic without
modifying
>   adapter code or attaching a debugger
> - This PR adds opt-in stdout logging of every bridge proxy request and
response
> (method, path, query, status), gated behind `PAPERCLIP_BRIDGE_DEBUG`
so it
>   stays off by default
> - The benefit is that operators can flip a single env var to get full
visibility
> into bridge traffic when debugging remote runs, without changing code

## What Changed

- `packages/adapter-utils/src/execution-target.ts`:
`startAdapterExecutionTargetPaperclipBridge`'s `handleRequest` now logs
each
  proxied request and response when `PAPERCLIP_BRIDGE_DEBUG` is truthy:
    - `[paperclip] Bridge proxy <METHOD> <path>?<query>` before fetch
- `[paperclip] Bridge proxy response <status> for <METHOD>
<path>?<query>` after
- Logging is no-op when the env var is unset/`"0"`/`"false"`.

## Verification

- Set `PAPERCLIP_BRIDGE_DEBUG=1` in the host process env, run an agent
against
a sandbox-backed environment, confirm the bridge log lines appear in
stdout.
- Unset the env var and confirm no extra log lines appear during normal
runs.

## Risks

- Off-by-default, no observable change for shipping users.
- When enabled, the logging is verbose — every API call from the sandbox
  produces 2 stdout lines. Operators should only enable it during active
  debugging.

## Model Used

Migrate SSH environment callback to bridge (#5116)
> **Stacked PR (part 3 of 7).** Depends on:
  - PR #5114
  - PR #5115
> Diff against `master` includes commits from earlier PRs in the stack —
the new commit in this PR is the topmost one.

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents executing on a remote SSH-backed environment need a way to
call back into
>   the Paperclip control plane (run events, log streaming, signals)
> - When the SSH host can't reach the Paperclip host (NAT, firewalls, or
simply not
> on the same network), the run silently fails or hangs — a recurring
class of
>   failure during SSH testing
> - In sandboxed environments we already solved this with a callback
bridge that
> tunnels back through the existing connection; SSH was the odd one out
> - This PR migrates SSH execution to use the same callback bridge, so
every
> adapter's remote run uses one consistent reverse-channel. Per-adapter
SSH glue
> is deleted in favour of a shared `CommandManagedRuntimeRunner` built
from the
>   SSH spec
> - The benefit is fewer SSH-specific failure modes, a smaller code
surface, and
>   one place to evolve the callback contract going forward

## What Changed

- Added `createSshCommandManagedRuntimeRunner` in
`packages/adapter-utils/src/ssh.ts` that adapts an SSH spec into a
generic
  command-managed-runtime runner (with cwd, env, and timeout handling)
- Removed `paperclipApiUrl` from `SshRemoteExecutionSpec`; the bridge
URL now flows
  through the shared runner
- Reworked `execution-target.ts` to use the SSH runner alongside sandbox
runners
  via a unified `CommandManagedRuntimeRunner` interface
- Simplified `remote-managed-runtime.ts` and
`sandbox-managed-runtime.ts` to consume
  the shared runner abstraction
- Deleted per-adapter SSH callback wiring from claude-local,
codex-local,
  cursor-local, gemini-local, opencode-local, pi-local execute.ts files
- Removed `environment-runtime-driver-contract.test.ts` (the contract is
now
  enforced by `environment-execution-target.test.ts`)
- Added/updated `execute.remote.test.ts` cases for each adapter to cover
the SSH
  runner path

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils test`
- `pnpm test -- execute.remote` (covers all six local adapters' SSH
paths)
- Manual QA: ran a claude-local agent against an SSH-backed environment,
confirmed
the agent successfully called back to `/api/agent-callback/*` endpoints
during
  the run

## Risks

- Refactor touches all six local adapters. If any adapter had subtle
SSH-specific
behaviour that wasn't captured in tests, it could regress. Mitigation:
each
  adapter's `execute.remote.test.ts` was extended.
- `paperclipApiUrl` removal from `SshRemoteExecutionSpec` is a breaking
type change
for any internal consumer. Verified no external plugins consume this
type.
- The new `CommandManagedRuntimeRunner` shape is a public surface in
`@paperclipai/adapter-utils`; downstream plugins implementing custom
runners may
  need updates, but no such plugins exist in this repo.

Let sandbox providers declare shell defaults (#5114)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents execute in sandboxed remote environments served by pluggable
sandbox
>   providers (E2B today, more later)
> - Today every sandbox command runs under `sh -lc` regardless of what
the
>   provider's container actually ships
> - That misses bash-only shell init on E2B (which ships bash) and
prevents
> future providers from declaring a different default — there's no way
for a
>   provider to say "I have bash, use it"
> - This PR adds a `shellCommand` field to sandbox execution targets so
providers
> can declare their preferred shell ("bash" for E2B), threads it through
the
> sandbox-managed-runtime client, callback bridge, and execution-target
shell
>   helper, and validates the value at the lease-metadata boundary
> - The benefit is that sandbox commands run under the right shell on
the right
> provider, and adding new sandbox providers only needs to declare a
shell
>   preference

## What Changed

- Added `packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-shell.ts` exporting
`preferredShellForSandbox(shellCommand)` (returns `"bash"` if input is
`"bash"`,
  else `"sh"`)
- Added `shellCommand?: "bash" | "sh" | null` to
`AdapterSandboxExecutionTarget`
  and `CommandManagedRuntimeSpec`; threaded it through
`runAdapterExecutionTargetShellCommand`,
`prepareAdapterExecutionTargetRuntime`,
  and `startAdapterExecutionTargetPaperclipBridge`
- `createCommandManagedRuntimeClient`, `prepareCommandManagedRuntime`,
and
`createCommandManagedSandboxCallbackBridgeQueueClient` now take an
optional
  `shellCommand` and use `preferredShellForSandbox` to pick the shell
- `startSandboxCallbackBridgeServer` accepts a `shellCommand` for its
server
  startup, readiness probe, and stop hook
- E2B sandbox plugin declares `shellCommand: "bash"` in `leaseMetadata`
- `resolveEnvironmentExecutionTarget` reads `shellCommand` from lease
metadata
  (validating against `"bash" | "sh" | null`)
- `environment-runtime.ts` adds `"shellCommand"` to
`INTERNAL_PLUGIN_SANDBOX_CONFIG_KEYS`
so the field round-trips through internal plugin config without leaking
to
  external plugin metadata
- Updated tests in `command-managed-runtime.test.ts`,
  `execution-target-sandbox.test.ts`, `sandbox-callback-bridge.test.ts`,
  `environment-execution-target.test.ts`

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils test`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test --
environment-execution-target`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/sandbox-providers-e2b test`
- Manual QA: boot a Paperclip instance, create an E2B-backed
environment, run a
claude_local agent against it, and confirm the run completes (verifies
bash
  shell semantics flow through the callback bridge end-to-end)

## Risks

- E2B sandbox commands now run under `bash -lc` instead of `sh -lc`.
Bash is a
strict superset for the commands we issue (no busybox-only flags in our
shell
scripts), so risk is low. The shellCommand field is opt-in via lease
metadata —
  providers that don't declare it stay on `sh`.
- New optional field on `CommandManagedRuntimeSpec` and
`AdapterSandboxExecutionTarget`.
  Consumers ignoring the field retain previous behaviour (sh).
- Lease metadata now carries an additional field. Existing leases
without
`shellCommand` resolve to `null` and fall back to sh — backwards
compatible.

Add sandbox callback bridge for remote environment API access (#4801)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents can run inside sandboxed environments like E2B, which are
isolated from the host network
> - Sandboxed agents need to call back to the Paperclip API to report
progress, post comments, and update issue status
> - But sandbox environments cannot reach the Paperclip server directly
because they run in isolated network namespaces
> - This PR adds a callback bridge that proxies API requests from the
sandbox to the Paperclip server, running as a local HTTP server on the
host that forwards authenticated requests
> - The bridge is started automatically when an adapter launches a
sandbox execution, and torn down when the run completes
> - The benefit is sandboxed agents can interact with the Paperclip API
without requiring network-level access to the host, enabling E2B and
similar providers to work end-to-end

## What Changed

- Added `sandbox-callback-bridge.ts` in `packages/adapter-utils/` — a
lightweight HTTP bridge server that accepts requests from sandbox
environments and proxies them to the Paperclip API with authentication
- Added request validation and security policy: the bridge only forwards
requests to the configured API URL, validates content types, enforces
size limits, and rejects non-API paths
- Wired the bridge into all remote adapter execute paths (claude, codex,
cursor, gemini, pi) — the bridge starts before the agent process and the
bridge URL is passed via environment variables
- Updated `environment-execution-target.ts` to prefer the explicit API
URL from environment lease metadata for sandbox callback routing
- Fixed Claude sandbox runtime setup to work with the bridge
configuration
- Added comprehensive test coverage for bridge request handling, policy
enforcement, and sandbox execution integration
- Fixed browser bundling — the bridge module is excluded from the
frontend bundle via the adapter-utils index export

## Verification

- `pnpm test` — all existing and new tests pass, including bridge unit
tests and sandbox execution integration tests
- `pnpm typecheck` — clean
- Manual: configure an E2B environment, run an agent task, verify the
agent can post comments and update issue status through the bridge

## Risks

- Medium. This is a new network-facing component (HTTP server on
localhost). The security policy restricts forwarding to the configured
API URL only and validates all requests, but any proxy introduces attack
surface. The bridge binds to localhost only and is scoped to the
lifetime of a single agent run.

## Model Used

Codex GPT 5.4 high via Paperclip.

Add dedicated environment settings page and test-in-environment (#4798)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents run inside environments (local, SSH, E2B sandbox)
> - Operators need to configure and manage these environments
> - But environment settings were buried inside the general company
settings page, making them hard to find
> - Additionally, when testing an agent from the configuration form, the
test always ran locally regardless of which environment was selected
> - This PR moves environments into a dedicated top-level company
settings section and wires the "Test Environment" button to run inside
the selected environment
> - The benefit is operators can find and manage environments more
easily, and the test button now validates the actual environment the
agent will use

## What Changed

- Added a dedicated `CompanyEnvironments` settings page with its own
route and sidebar entry
- Updated `CompanySettingsSidebar` and `CompanySettingsNav` to include
the new environments section
- Modified the agent test route (`POST /agents/:id/test`) to accept an
optional `environmentId` parameter
- Updated all adapter `test.ts` handlers to resolve and use the
specified execution target environment
- Added `resolveTestExecutionTarget` to `execution-target.ts` for remote
environment test resolution with cwd fallback
- Moved the "Test Environment" button and its feedback display into the
`NewAgent` page footer for better UX flow

## Verification

- `pnpm test` — all existing and new tests pass
- `pnpm typecheck` — clean
- Manual: navigate to Company Settings, confirm "Environments" appears
as a top-level section
- Manual: configure an agent with a non-local environment, click "Test
Environment", confirm the test runs inside that environment

## Risks

- Low risk. UI-only routing change for the settings page. The
test-in-environment change adds an optional parameter with a local
fallback, so existing behavior is preserved when no environment is
specified.

## Model Used

Codex GPT 5.4 high via Paperclip.

Add sandbox environment support (#4415)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - The environment/runtime layer decides where agent work executes and
how the control plane reaches those runtimes.
> - Today Paperclip can run locally and over SSH, but sandboxed
execution needs a first-class environment model instead of one-off
adapter behavior.
> - We also want sandbox providers to be pluggable so the core does not
hardcode every provider implementation.
> - This branch adds the Sandbox environment path, the provider
contract, and a deterministic fake provider plugin.
> - That required synchronized changes across shared contracts, plugin
SDK surfaces, server runtime orchestration, and the UI
environment/workspace flows.
> - The result is that sandbox execution becomes a core control-plane
capability while keeping provider implementations extensible and
testable.

## What Changed

- Added sandbox runtime support to the environment execution path,
including runtime URL discovery, sandbox execution targeting,
orchestration, and heartbeat integration.
- Added plugin-provider support for sandbox environments so providers
can be supplied via plugins instead of hardcoded server logic.
- Added the fake sandbox provider plugin with deterministic behavior
suitable for local and automated testing.
- Updated shared types, validators, plugin protocol definitions, and SDK
helpers to carry sandbox provider and workspace-runtime contracts across
package boundaries.
- Updated server routes and services so companies can create sandbox
environments, select them for work, and execute work through the sandbox
runtime path.
- Updated the UI environment and workspace surfaces to expose sandbox
environment configuration and selection.
- Added test coverage for sandbox runtime behavior, provider seams,
environment route guards, orchestration, and the fake provider plugin.

## Verification

- Ran locally before the final fixture-only scrub:
  - `pnpm -r typecheck`
  - `pnpm test:run`
  - `pnpm build`
- Ran locally after the final scrub amend:
  - `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/runtime-api.test.ts`
- Reviewer spot checks:
  - create a sandbox environment backed by the fake provider plugin
  - run work through that environment
- confirm sandbox provider execution does not inherit host secrets
implicitly

## Risks

- This touches shared contracts, plugin SDK plumbing, server runtime
orchestration, and UI environment/workspace flows, so regressions would
likely show up as cross-layer mismatches rather than isolated type
errors.
- Runtime URL discovery and sandbox callback selection are sensitive to
host/bind configuration; if that logic is wrong, sandbox-backed
callbacks may fail even when execution succeeds.
- The fake provider plugin is intentionally deterministic and
test-oriented; future providers may expose capability gaps that this
branch does not yet cover.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex coding agent on a GPT-5-class backend in the
Paperclip/Codex harness. Exact backend model ID is not exposed
in-session. Tool-assisted workflow with shell execution, file editing,
git history inspection, and local test execution.

Add SSH environment support (#4358)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The environments subsystem already models execution environments,
but before this branch there was no end-to-end SSH-backed runtime path
for agents to actually run work against a remote box
> - That meant agents could be configured around environment concepts
without a reliable way to execute adapter sessions remotely, sync
workspace state, and preserve run context across supported adapters
> - We also need environment selection to participate in normal
Paperclip control-plane behavior: agent defaults, project/issue
selection, route validation, and environment probing
> - Because this capability is still experimental, the UI surface should
be easy to hide and easy to remove later without undoing the underlying
implementation
> - This pull request adds SSH environment execution support across the
runtime, adapters, routes, schema, and tests, then puts the visible
environment-management UI behind an experimental flag
> - The benefit is that we can validate real SSH-backed agent execution
now while keeping the user-facing controls safely gated until the
feature is ready to come out of experimentation

## What Changed

- Added SSH-backed execution target support in the shared adapter
runtime, including remote workspace preparation, skill/runtime asset
sync, remote session handling, and workspace restore behavior after
runs.
- Added SSH execution coverage for supported local adapters, plus remote
execution tests across Claude, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, OpenCode, and Pi.
- Added environment selection and environment-management backend support
needed for SSH execution, including route/service work, validation,
probing, and agent default environment persistence.
- Added CLI support for SSH environment lab verification and updated
related docs/tests.
- Added the `enableEnvironments` experimental flag and gated the
environment UI behind it on company settings, agent configuration, and
project configuration surfaces.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
packages/adapters/claude-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/cursor-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/gemini-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/opencode-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts
packages/adapters/pi-local/src/server/execute.remote.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/instance-settings-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/lib/new-agent-hire-payload.test.ts
ui/src/lib/new-agent-runtime-config.test.ts`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- Manual verification on a branch-local dev server:
  - enabled the experimental flag
  - created an SSH environment
  - created a Linux Claude agent using that environment
- confirmed a run executed on the Linux box and synced workspace changes
back

## Risks

- Medium: this touches runtime execution flow across multiple adapters,
so regressions would likely show up in remote session setup, workspace
sync, or environment selection precedence.
- The UI flag reduces exposure, but the underlying runtime and route
changes are still substantial and rely on migration correctness.
- The change set is broad across adapters, control-plane services,
migrations, and UI gating, so review should pay close attention to
environment-selection precedence and remote workspace lifecycle
behavior.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex via Paperclip's local Codex adapter, GPT-5-class coding
model with tool use and code execution in the local repo workspace. The
local adapter does not surface a more specific public model version
string in this branch workflow.
