## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies by keeping
task ownership, approvals, and operator control inside one control
plane.
> - Agent permissions and plugin-hosted company settings sit on the
boundary between autonomy and governance.
> - V1 needs scoped task assignment rules, plugin extension points, and
clearer company access surfaces without weakening company boundaries.
> - The branch builds the core authorization service, plugin SDK/host
APIs, and UI simplifications needed to support those controls.
> - Paperclip EE plugin surfaces were intentionally moved out of this
core PR per review direction, so this PR now carries only the public
core/plugin infrastructure work.
> - The latest updates preserve the PAP-9937 branch changes that belong
in this PR, remove the `design/` artifacts, and exclude the experimental
`plugin-briefs` package.
> - Greptile feedback was applied through the authorization/audit paths
and the final cleanup commit was re-reviewed at 5/5 with no unresolved
Greptile threads.
> - The benefit is safer assignment control with extension hooks for
richer permission products while preserving simple defaults for normal
operators.
## What Changed
- Added scoped task-assignment authorization decisions and routed
issue/agent assignment mutations through the authorization service.
- Added plugin SDK and host APIs for company settings slots,
authorization policy/grant management, assignment previews, and bridge
invocation scope propagation.
- Simplified core company access UI and moved advanced controls behind
plugin-provided settings surfaces.
- Added retry-now affordances for blocked issue next-step notices.
- Added protected-assignment enforcement for persisted
agent/project/issue policies, including explicit-grant fallback
behavior.
- Added incremental principal-access compatibility backfill for active
agent memberships and role-default human permission grants.
- Added the Markdown code block wrap action fix from the latest branch
changes.
- Removed `design/` artifacts from the PR and removed
`packages/plugins/plugin-briefs` from the final diff.
- Addressed Greptile feedback for plugin actor sanitization, legacy
membership handling, audit pagination, unknown grant-scope metadata, and
startup test mocks.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/access-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts` -> 2 files passed, 54
tests passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/access-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts` -> 3 files passed, 62
tests passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/authorization-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/plugin-access-authorization-host-services.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts` -> 3 files
passed, 28 tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` -> passed.
- `git diff --check` -> passed.
- `node ./scripts/check-docker-deps-stage.mjs` -> passed.
- `CI=true pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts` -> passed
with no lockfile update.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.interaction.test.tsx` -> 1 test passed.
- `git ls-files design packages/plugins/plugin-briefs | wc -l` -> 0.
- GitHub CI on `40cd83b53` -> all checks passed, merge state `CLEAN`.
- Greptile on `40cd83b53` -> 5/5, 102 files reviewed, 0
comments/annotations added, 0 unresolved review threads.
- Confirmed the PR diff contains no `design/`,
`packages/plugins/plugin-briefs`, `pnpm-lock.yaml`, or
`.github/workflows` changes.
## Risks
- Medium: task assignment authorization paths are behaviorally stricter
for protected/private policy data, so existing plugin-authored policies
may block assignment until explicit grants or approval flows are
configured.
- Medium: plugin-host authorization APIs expand the surface area
available to trusted plugins and need careful review for company
scoping.
- Low: startup now performs a principal-access compatibility backfill,
but the migration and runtime backfill use conflict-tolerant inserts.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies, so agent
work needs visible ownership, recovery, and operator controls.
> - This local branch had accumulated several related control-plane
reliability and operator-experience fixes across recovery actions,
watchdog folding, model-profile defaults, mentions, markdown editing,
plugin launchers, and small UI polish.
> - The branch needed to be converted into a PR against the current
`origin/master` without losing dirty work or including lockfile/workflow
churn.
> - The safest standalone shape is a single rollup PR because the
recovery/server/UI files overlap heavily across the local commits and
splitting would create avoidable conflicts.
> - This pull request replays the local branch onto latest
`origin/master`, preserves the uncommitted work as logical commits, and
adds a Zod 4 validator compatibility fix found during verification.
> - The benefit is that the May 17 local branch can be reviewed and
merged as one coherent, conflict-free branch under the 100-file Greptile
limit.
## What Changed
- Rebased the local May 17 branch work onto current `origin/master` in a
dedicated worktree.
- Preserved and committed previously dirty changes for recovery retry
handling, plugin/sidebar launcher polish, and `.herenow` ignores.
- Added recovery-action behavior for returning source issues to `todo`
when retrying source-scoped recovery.
- Included the existing local recovery/liveness/watchdog fold, Codex
cheap-profile, markdown/mention, duplicate-agent, and UI polish commits
from the branch.
- Normalized shared validator `z.record(...)` schemas to explicit
string-key records for Zod 4 compatibility.
- Confirmed the PR has no `pnpm-lock.yaml` or `.github/workflows/*`
changes and stays below the 100-file Greptile limit.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts`
- `npm run install` in
`node_modules/.pnpm/sqlite3@5.1.7/node_modules/sqlite3` to build the
local native sqlite3 binding after installing with scripts disabled
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts
packages/shared/src/project-mentions.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-model-profile.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-agent-mutation-ownership-routes.test.ts

ui/src/components/MarkdownEditor.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/duplicate-agent-payload.test.ts
ui/src/pages/Routines.test.tsx`
- First pass: 13 files passed with 201 passing tests; 3 server files
failed before sqlite3 native binding was built.
- After rebuilding sqlite3:
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-model-profile.test.ts`,
`server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts`, and
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-active-run-output-watchdog.test.ts`
passed/loaded; embedded Postgres tests were skipped by the local host
guard.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
## Risks
- Medium risk: this is a broad rollup PR across recovery semantics,
server tests, shared validators, and UI surfaces.
- Some embedded Postgres tests skipped locally due the host guard, so CI
should provide the stronger database-backed signal.
- UI changes were covered by component tests, but no browser screenshot
was captured in this PR creation pass.
- This branch may overlap with existing recovery/liveness PR work; merge
this PR independently or restack/close overlapping branches rather than
merging duplicate implementations together.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is a control plane operators use repeatedly to supervise
agent companies.
> - Common operator workflows depend on fast scanning of inboxes, issue
sidebars, workspaces, cost totals, and runtime services.
> - Several small UI and service gaps made those workflows slower or
less clear.
> - This pull request groups the operator-facing QoL changes that can
stand alone from recovery and adapter work.
> - The benefit is a denser, clearer board experience for issue triage
and workspace operation.
## What Changed
- Added inbox assignee/project grouping and issue list token/runtime
totals.
- Improved issue properties with removable blocker chips and workspace
task links.
- Improved execution workspace layout, runtime controls, issues tab
default, and stopped-port reuse behavior.
- Added mobile markdown/routine dialog fixes, page title company names,
sidebar polish, and dashboard run task label cleanup.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/lib/inbox.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx
ui/src/components/WorkspaceRuntimeControls.test.tsx
server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/costs-service.test.ts`
## Risks
- Medium UI risk because this touches several operator surfaces. The
branch is intentionally grouped around workflow/QoL files and keeps the
file count below the Greptile limit.
## Model Used
- OpenAI GPT-5 Codex via Paperclip `codex_local` adapter, with
shell/git/GitHub CLI tool use.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The plugin system is the extension boundary for optional product
capabilities
> - Rich plugins need more than a worker entrypoint: they need scoped
database storage, local project folders, managed agents/routines, host
navigation, and reusable UI components
> - The LLM Wiki work exposed those missing host surfaces while keeping
plugin code outside the core control plane
> - This pull request expands the core plugin host, SDK, server APIs,
and UI bridge so plugins can declare and use those surfaces
> - The benefit is that future plugins can integrate with Paperclip
through documented, validated contracts instead of bespoke server or UI
imports
## What Changed
- Added plugin-managed database namespaces and migration tracking,
including Drizzle schema/migration files and SQL validation for
namespace isolation.
- Added server support for plugin local folders, managed agents, managed
routines, scoped plugin APIs, and plugin operation visibility.
- Expanded shared plugin manifest/types/validators and SDK
host/testing/UI exports for richer plugin surfaces.
- Added reusable UI pieces for file trees, managed routines, resizable
sidebars, route sidebars, and plugin bridge initialization.
- Updated plugin docs and example plugins to use the expanded host and
SDK surface.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links && pnpm exec vitest run

ui/src/pages/PluginPage.test.tsx ui/src/plugins/bridge.test.ts` passed:
11 files, 67 tests.
- Confirmed this PR changes 89 files and does not include
`pnpm-lock.yaml` or `.github/workflows/*`.
## Risks
- Medium: this expands plugin host contracts across db/shared/server/ui
and includes a new core migration (`0076_useful_elektra.sql`).
- The plugin database namespace validator is intentionally restrictive;
plugin authors may need follow-up affordances for SQL patterns that
remain blocked.
- Merge this before the LLM Wiki plugin PR so the plugin can resolve the
new SDK and host APIs.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip's board UI is the operator surface for supervising
AI-agent companies.
> - Issue threads are where operators read progress, respond to agents,
inspect markdown, and jump through long histories.
> - Large threads and rich markdown had become difficult to navigate and
expensive to render.
> - The previous rollup mixed these UI scale fixes with unrelated
backend recovery, costs, backups, and settings changes.
> - This pull request isolates the issue-thread scale and markdown
polish work.
> - The benefit is a reviewable UI slice that can merge independently of
the backend reliability, database backup, workflow, and board QoL PRs.
## What Changed
- Virtualized long issue chat threads and stabilized
anchor/jump-to-latest behavior for large histories.
- Added incremental issue-list row loading and tests for
scroll-triggered pagination behavior.
- Hardened markdown body rendering and markdown editor behavior around
HTML tags, image drops, code-copy UI, and escaped newline handling.
- Added a long-thread measurement harness at
`scripts/measure-issue-chat-long-thread.mjs` plus
`perf:issue-chat-long-thread`.
- Added focused UI/lib regression coverage for thread rendering,
markdown, optimistic comments, and message building.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssuesList.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownEditor.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/issue-chat-messages.test.ts
ui/src/lib/optimistic-issue-comments.test.ts`
- Result: 6 test files passed, 170 tests passed.
- UI screenshots not included because this PR is covered by targeted
component tests and does not introduce a new page layout.
## Risks
- Virtualization changes can affect scroll anchoring in edge cases on
very long threads.
- Markdown/editor hardening changes are intentionally defensive, but
malformed content may render differently than before.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The board UI renders agent comments, PR links, issue links, and
operational markdown throughout issue threads
> - Long GitHub and external links can wrap awkwardly, leaving icons
orphaned from the text they describe
> - Small inbox visual polish also helps repeated board scanning without
changing behavior
> - This pull request glues markdown link icons to adjacent link
characters and removes a redundant inbox list border
> - The benefit is cleaner, more stable markdown and inbox rendering for
day-to-day operator review
## What Changed
- Added an external-link indicator for external markdown links.
- Kept the GitHub icon attached to the first link character so it does
not wrap onto a separate line.
- Kept the external-link icon attached to the final link character so it
does not wrap away from the URL/text.
- Added markdown rendering regressions for GitHub and external link icon
wrapping.
- Removed the extra border around the inbox list card.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/ui
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
## Risks
- Low risk. The markdown change is limited to link child rendering and
preserves existing href/target/rel behavior.
- Visual-only inbox polish.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Task references are a core part of how operators understand issue
relationships across the UI
> - Those references appear both in markdown bodies and in sidebar
relationship panels
> - The rendering had drifted between surfaces, and inline markdown
pills were reading awkwardly inside prose and lists
> - This pull request unifies the underlying issue-reference treatment,
routes issue descriptions through `MarkdownBody`, and switches inline
markdown references to a cleaner text-link presentation
> - The benefit is more consistent issue-reference UX with better
readability in markdown-heavy views
## What Changed
- unified sidebar and markdown issue-reference rendering around the
shared issue-reference components
- routed resting issue descriptions through `MarkdownBody` so
description previews inherit the richer issue-reference treatment
- replaced inline markdown pill chrome with a cleaner inline reference
presentation for prose contexts
- added and updated UI tests for `MarkdownBody` and `InlineEditor`
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/ui
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx
ui/src/components/InlineEditor.test.tsx`
## Risks
- Moderate UI risk: issue-reference rendering now differs intentionally
between inline markdown and relationship sidebars, so regressions would
show up as styling or hover-preview mismatches

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Human operators supervise that work through issue lists, issue
detail, comments, inbox groups, markdown references, and
profile/activity surfaces
> - The branch had many small UI fixes that improve the operator loop
but do not need to ship with backend runtime migrations
> - These changes belong together as board workflow polish because they
affect scanning, navigation, issue context, comment state, and markdown
clarity
> - This pull request groups the UI-only slice so it can merge
independently from runtime/backend changes
> - The benefit is a clearer board experience with better issue context,
steadier optimistic updates, and more predictable keyboard navigation
## What Changed
- Improves issue properties, sub-issue actions, blocker chips, and issue
list/detail refresh behavior.
- Adds blocker context above the issue composer and stabilizes
queued/interrupted comment UI state.
- Improves markdown issue/GitHub link rendering and opens external
markdown links in a new tab.
- Adds inbox group keyboard navigation and fold/unfold support.
- Polishes activity/avatar/profile/settings/workspace presentation
details.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx ui/src/lib/inbox.test.ts
ui/src/lib/optimistic-issue-comments.test.ts`
## Risks
- Low to medium risk: changes are UI-focused but cover high-traffic
issue and inbox surfaces.
- This branch intentionally does not include the backend runtime changes
from the companion PR; where UI calls newer API filters, unsupported
servers should continue to fail visibly through existing API error
handling.
- Visual screenshots were not captured in this heartbeat; targeted
component/helper tests cover the changed behavior.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - Operators and agents coordinate through company-scoped issues,
comments, documents, and task relationships.
> - Issue text can mention other tickets, but those references were
previously plain markdown/text without durable relationship data.
> - That made it harder to understand related work, surface backlinks,
and keep cross-ticket context visible in the board.
> - This pull request adds first-class issue reference extraction,
storage, API responses, and UI surfaces.
> - The benefit is that issue references become queryable, navigable,
and visible without relying on ad hoc text scanning.
## What Changed
- Added shared issue-reference parsing utilities and exported
reference-related types/constants.
- Added an `issue_reference_mentions` table, idempotent migration DDL,
schema exports, and database documentation.
- Added server-side issue reference services, route integration,
activity summaries, and a backfill command for existing issue content.
- Added UI reference pills, related-work panels, markdown/editor mention
handling, and issue detail/property rendering updates.
- Added focused shared, server, and UI tests for parsing, persistence,
display, and related-work behavior.
- Rebased `PAP-735-first-class-task-references` cleanly onto
`public-gh/master`; no `pnpm-lock.yaml` changes are included.
## Verification
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm test:run packages/shared/src/issue-references.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-references-service.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueRelatedWorkPanel.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx`
## Risks
- Medium risk because this adds a new issue-reference persistence path
that touches shared parsing, database schema, server routes, and UI
rendering.
- Migration risk is mitigated by `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS`, guarded
foreign-key creation, and `CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS` statements so
users who have applied an older local version of the numbered migration
can re-run safely.
- UI risk is limited by focused component coverage, but reviewers should
still manually inspect issue detail pages containing ticket references
before merge.

release-branch conflict resolution, and review hardening.
> - This pull request consolidates that branch onto the current `master`
branch as a single reviewable PR.
> - The benefit is a complete multi-user implementation path with tests
and docs carried forward without dropping existing branch work.
## What Changed
- Added authenticated human-user access surfaces: auth/session routes,
company user directory, profile settings, company access/member
management, join requests, and invite management.
- Added invite creation, invite landing, onboarding, logo/branding,
invite grants, deduped join requests, and authenticated multi-user E2E
coverage.
- Tightened company-scoped and instance-admin authorization across
board, plugin, adapter, access, issue, and workspace routes.
- Added profile-image URL validation hardening, avatar preservation on
name-only profile updates, and join-request uniqueness migration cleanup
for pending human requests.
- Added an atomic member role/status/grants update path so Company
Access saves no longer leave partially updated permissions.
- Improved issue chat, inbox, assignee identity rendering,
sidebar/account/company navigation, workspace routing, and execution
workspace reuse behavior for multi-user operation.
- Added and updated server/UI tests covering auth, invites, membership,
issue workspace inheritance, plugin authz, inbox/chat behavior, and
multi-user flows.
- Merged current `public-gh/master` into this branch, resolved all
conflicts, and verified no `pnpm-lock.yaml` change is included in this
PR diff.

- Confirmed no `pnpm-lock.yaml` change is staged or present in the PR
diff.
## Risks
- High review surface area: this PR contains the accumulated multi-user
branch plus follow-up fixes, so reviewers should focus especially on
company-boundary enforcement and authenticated-vs-local deployment
behavior.
- UI behavior changed across invites, inbox, issue chat, access
settings, and sidebar navigation; no browser screenshots are included in
this branch-consolidation PR.
- Plugin install, upgrade, and lifecycle/config mutations now require
instance-admin access, which is intentional but may change expectations
for non-admin board users.
- A join-request dedupe migration rejects duplicate pending human
requests before creating unique indexes; deployments with unusual
historical duplicates should review the migration behavior.
- Company member role/status/grant saves now use a new combined
endpoint; older separate endpoints remain for compatibility.
- Full production build was not run locally in this heartbeat; CI should
cover the full matrix.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex coding agent, GPT-5-based model, CLI/tool-use
environment. Exact deployed model identifier and context window were not
exposed by the runtime.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Operators rely on issue, inbox, and routine views to understand what
the company is doing in real time
> - Those views need to stay fast and readable even when issue lists,
markdown comments, and run metadata get large
> - The current branch had a coherent set of UI and live-update
improvements spread across issue search, issue detail rendering, routine
affordances, and workspace lookups
> - This pull request groups those board-facing changes into one
standalone branch that can merge independently of the heartbeat/runtime
work
> - The benefit is a faster, clearer issue and routine workflow without
changing the underlying task model
## What Changed
- Show routine execution issues by default and rename the filter to
`Hide routine runs` so the default state no longer looks like an active
filter.
- Show the routine name in the run dialog and tighten the issue
properties pane with a workspace link, copy-on-click behavior, and an
inline parent arrow.
- Reduce issue detail rerenders, keep queued issue chat mounted, improve
issues page search responsiveness, and speed up issues first paint.
- Add inbox "other search results", refresh visible issue runs after
status updates, and optimize workspace lookups through summary-mode
execution workspace queries.
- Improve markdown wrapping and scrolling behavior for long strings and
self-comment code blocks.
- Relax the markdown sanitizer assertion so the test still validates
safety after the new wrap-friendly inline styles.
## Verification
- `pnpm vitest run ui/src/components/IssuesList.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/inbox.test.ts ui/src/pages/Issues.test.tsx
ui/src/context/BreadcrumbContext.test.tsx
ui/src/context/LiveUpdatesProvider.test.ts
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx
ui/src/api/execution-workspaces.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/execution-workspaces-routes.test.ts`
## Risks
- This touches several issue-facing UI surfaces at once, so regressions
would most likely show up as stale rendering, search result mismatches,
or small markdown presentation differences.
- The workspace lookup optimization depends on the summary-mode route
shape staying aligned between server and UI.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent in the Codex CLI environment.
Exact backend model deployment ID was not exposed in-session.
Tool-assisted editing and shell execution were used.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The control plane depends on authenticated routes enforcing company
boundaries and role permissions correctly
> - This branch also touches the issue detail and markdown editing flows
operators use while handling advisory and triage work
> - Partial issue cache seeds and fragile rich-editor parsing could
leave important issue content missing or blank at the moment an operator
needed it
> - Blocked issues becoming actionable again should wake their assignee
automatically instead of silently staying idle
> - This pull request rebases the advisory follow-up branch onto current
`master`, hardens authenticated route authorization, and carries the
issue-detail/editor reliability fixes forward with regression tests
> - The benefit is tighter authz on sensitive routes plus more reliable
issue/advisory editing and wakeup behavior on top of the latest base
## What Changed
- Hardened authenticated route authorization across agent, activity,
approval, access, project, plugin, health, execution-workspace,
portability, and related server paths, with new cross-tenant and
runtime-authz regression coverage.
- Switched issue detail queries from `initialData` to placeholder-based
hydration so list/quicklook seeds still refetch full issue bodies.
- Normalized advisory-style HTML images before mounting the markdown
editor and strengthened fallback behavior when the rich editor silently
fails or rejects the content.
- Woke assigned agents when blocked issues move back to `todo`, with
route coverage for reopen and unblock transitions.
- Rebasing note: this branch now sits cleanly on top of the latest
`master` tip used for the PR base.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/lib/issueDetailQuery.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownEditor.test.tsx
server/src/__tests__/issue-comment-reopen-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/activity-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/agent-cross-tenant-authz-routes.test.ts`
- Confirmed `pnpm-lock.yaml` is not part of the PR diff.
- Rebased the branch onto current `public-gh/master` before publishing.
## Risks
- Broad authz tightening may expose existing flows that were relying on
permissive board or agent access and now need explicit grants.
- Markdown editor fallback changes could affect focus or rendering in
edge-case content that mixes HTML-like advisory markup with normal
markdown.
- This verification was intentionally scoped to touched regressions and
did not run the full repository suite.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent in the Codex CLI environment
with tool use for terminal, git, and GitHub operations. The exact
runtime model identifier is not exposed inside 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 run tests locally and they pass
- [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable
- [x] If this change affects the UI, it is behavior-only and does not
need before/after screenshots
- [x] I have updated relevant documentation to reflect my changes, or no
documentation changes were needed for these internal fixes
- [x] I have considered and documented any risks above
- [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before

The MarkdownBody component now accepts an optional resolveImageSrc callback
that maps relative image paths (like images/org-chart.png) to base64 data URLs
from the portable file entries. This fixes the export README showing a broken
image instead of the org chart PNG.
Applied to both CompanyExport and CompanyImport preview panes.

Previous attempt was being overridden by Tailwind prose/prose-invert
CSS variables. This fix:
- Overrides --tw-prose-pre-bg and --tw-prose-invert-pre-bg CSS variables
on .paperclip-markdown to force dark background in both modes
- Uses .paperclip-markdown pre with \!important for bulletproof overrides
- Removes conflicting prose-pre: utility classes from MarkdownBody
- Adds explicit pre code reset (inherit color/size, no background)
- Verified visually with Playwright at desktop and mobile viewports

- Switch code block background from transparent accent to dark (#1e1e2e) with
light text (#cdd6f4) for better readability in both light and dark modes
- Reduce code font size from 0.84em to 0.78em
- Compact padding and margins on pre blocks
- Hide MDXEditor code block toolbar by default, show on hover/focus to prevent
overlap with code content on mobile
- Use horizontal scroll instead of word-wrap for code blocks to preserve formatting
