## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies, and
stable releases need a clear changelog artifact for operators upgrading
between versions.
> - The release-note workflow in this repo stores one stable changelog
file per release under `releases/`.
> - `v2026.410.0` and `v2026.413.0` were intermediate drafts for the
same release window, while the next stable release is `v2026.416.0`.
> - Keeping superseded draft release notes around would make the stable
release history noisy and misleading.
> - This pull request consolidates the intended content into
`releases/v2026.416.0.md` and removes the older
`releases/v2026.410.0.md` and `releases/v2026.413.0.md` files.
> - The benefit is a single canonical stable release note for
`v2026.416.0` with no duplicate release artifacts.
## What Changed
- Added `releases/v2026.416.0.md` as the canonical stable changelog for
the April 16, 2026 release.
- Removed the superseded `releases/v2026.410.0.md` and
`releases/v2026.413.0.md` draft release-note files.
- Kept the final release-note ordering and content as edited in the
working tree before commit.
## Verification
- Reviewed the git diff to confirm the PR only changes release-note
artifacts in `releases/`.
- Confirmed the branch is based on `public-gh/master` and contains a
single release-note commit.
- Did not run tests because this is a docs-only changelog update.
## Risks
- Low risk. The change is limited to release-note markdown files.
- The main risk is editorial: if any release item was meant to stay in a
separate changelog file, it now exists only in `v2026.416.0.md`.
## Model Used
- OpenAI GPT-5 Codex, model `gpt-5.4`, medium reasoning, tool use and
code execution in the Codex CLI environment.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The board depends on issue, inbox, cost, and company-skill surfaces
to stay accurate and fast while agents are actively working
> - The PAP-1497 follow-up branch exposed a few rough edges in those
surfaces: stale active-run state on completed issues, missing creator
filters, oversized issue payload scans, and placeholder issue-route
parsing
> - Those gaps make the control plane harder to trust because operators
can see misleading run state, miss the right subset of work, or pay
extra query/render cost on large issue records
> - This pull request tightens those follow-ups across server and UI
code, and adds regression coverage for the affected paths
> - The benefit is a more reliable issue workflow, safer high-volume
cost aggregation, and clearer board/operator navigation
## What Changed
- Added the `v2026.415.0` release changelog entry.
- Fixed stale issue-run presentation after completion and reused the
shared issue-path parser so literal route placeholders no longer become
issue links.
- Added creator filters to the Issues page and Inbox, including
persisted filter-state normalization and regression coverage.
- Bounded issue detail/list project-mention scans and trimmed large
issue-list payload fields to keep issue reads lighter.
- Hardened company-skill list projection and cost/finance aggregation so
large markdown blobs and large summed values do not leak into list
responses or overflow 32-bit casts.
- Added targeted server/UI regression tests for company skills,
costs/finance, issue mention scanning, creator filters, inbox
normalization, and issue reference parsing.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/costs-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issues-goal-context-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issues-service.test.ts ui/src/lib/inbox.test.ts
ui/src/lib/issue-filters.test.ts ui/src/lib/issue-reference.test.ts`
- `gh pr checks 3779`
Current pass set on the PR head: `policy`, `verify`, `e2e`,
`security/snyk (cryppadotta)`, `Greptile Review`
## Risks
- Creator filter options are derived from the currently loaded
issue/agent data, so very sparse result sets may not surface every
historical creator until they appear in the active dataset.
- Cost/finance aggregate casts now use `double precision`; that removes
the current overflow risk, but future schema changes should keep
large-value aggregation behavior under review.
- Issue detail mention scanning now skips comment-body scans on the
detail route, so any consumer that relied on comment-only project
mentions there would need to fetch them separately.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent with terminal tool use and
local code execution in the Paperclip workspace. Exact internal model
ID/context-window exposure is not surfaced in this session.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Reliable execution depends on heartbeat routing, issue lifecycle
semantics, telemetry, and a fast enough local verification loop to keep
regressions visible
> - The remaining commits on this branch were mostly server/runtime
correctness fixes plus test and documentation follow-ups in that area
> - Those changes are logically separate from the UI-focused
issue-detail and workspace/navigation branches even when they touch
overlapping issue APIs
> - This pull request groups the execution reliability, heartbeat,
telemetry, and tooling changes into one standalone branch
> - The benefit is a focused review of the control-plane correctness
work, including the follow-up fix that restored the implicit
comment-reopen helpers after branch splitting
## What Changed
- Hardened issue/heartbeat execution behavior, including self-review
stage skipping, deferred mention wakes during active execution, stranded
execution recovery, active-run scoping, assignee resolution, and
blocked-to-todo wake resumption
- Reduced noisy polling/logging overhead by trimming issue run payloads,
compacting persisted run logs, silencing high-volume request logs, and
capping heartbeat-run queries in dashboard/inbox surfaces
- Expanded telemetry and status semantics with adapter/model fields on
task completion plus clearer status guidance in docs/onboarding material
- Updated test infrastructure and verification defaults with faster
route-test module isolation, cheaper default `pnpm test`, e2e isolation
from local state, and repo verification follow-ups
- Included docs/release housekeeping from the branch and added a small
follow-up commit restoring the implicit comment-reopen helpers that were
dropped during branch reconstruction
## Verification
- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/issue-comment-reopen-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-telemetry-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/http-log-policy.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-run-log.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/health.test.ts`
- `server/src/__tests__/activity-service.test.ts`,
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-comment-wake-batching.test.ts`, and
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts` were attempted
on this host but the embedded Postgres harness reported
init-script/data-dir problems and skipped or failed to start, so they
are noted as environment-limited
## Risks
- Medium: this branch changes core issue/heartbeat routing and
reopen/wakeup behavior, so regressions would affect agent execution flow
rather than isolated UI polish
- Because it also updates verification infrastructure, reviewers should
pay attention to whether the new tests are asserting the right failure
modes and not just reshaping harness behavior
## 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

## Summary
- Adds comprehensive release notes for `v2026.410.0`, the security
release that patches GHSA-68qg-g8mg-6pr7 (unauthenticated RCE via import
authorization bypass)
- Required before triggering the stable release workflow to publish
`2026.410.0` to npm and create the GitHub Release
## Context
The security fix (PR #3315) is already merged to master. The GHSA
advisory references `2026.410.0` as the patched version, but only canary
builds exist on npm. This PR unblocks the stable release.
## Test plan
- [x] Release notes file is valid markdown
- [ ] Merge and trigger `release.yml` workflow with `source_ref=master`,
`stable_date=2026-04-10`
- [ ] Verify `npm view paperclipai version` returns `2026.410.0`
- [ ] Verify GitHub Release `v2026.410.0` exists
