## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip coordinates work through issue-thread interactions, run
history, and cost telemetry.
> - Operators need workflow prompts to be cancellable and costs to be
visible at the issue level.
> - The earlier rollup mixed this workflow/cost work with database
backups, reliability recovery, thread scaling, and settings polish.
> - This pull request isolates the interaction and cost surfaces into a
reviewable slice.
> - The backend now supports cancelling pending question interactions
and summarizing issue-tree costs.
> - The UI component layer can render cancelled questions and interleave
activity with run ledger rows.
## What Changed
- Added `cancelled` as an issue-thread interaction status and result
shape for question interactions.
- Added the board-only `POST
/issues/:id/interactions/:interactionId/cancel` route and service
implementation.
- Added issue-tree cost summary support in the cost service and
`/issues/:id/cost-summary` API route.
- Extended shared cost exports and UI API/query keys for issue cost
summaries.
- Updated `IssueThreadInteractionCard` and `IssueRunLedger` components
for cancelled questions, issue cost surfaces, and activity/run
interleaving.
- Added focused server and component regression coverage.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/costs-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interaction-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-service.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueRunLedger.test.tsx`
- Result: 4 test files passed, 45 tests passed.
- UI screenshots not included because this PR updates reusable
components and API surfaces without wiring a new page-level layout.
## Risks
- Adds a new interaction terminal status; clients that switch
exhaustively on interaction status may need to handle `cancelled`.
- Issue-tree cost summaries use recursive issue traversal and should be
watched on unusually large issue trees.
- Page-level issue detail wiring is intentionally left to the board
QoL/issue-detail branch to keep this PR narrow.

## 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.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - The REST API is the control-plane boundary for companies, agents,
plugins, adapters, costs, invites, and issue mutations.
> - Several routes still relied on broad board or company access checks
without consistently enforcing the narrower actor, company, and
active-checkout boundaries those operations require.
> - That can allow agents or non-admin users to mutate sensitive
resources outside the intended governance path.
> - This pull request hardens the route authorization layer and adds
regression coverage for the audited API surfaces.
> - The benefit is tighter multi-company isolation, safer plugin and
adapter administration, and stronger enforcement of active issue
ownership.
## What Changed
- Added route-level authorization checks for budgets, plugin
administration/scoped routes, adapter management, company import/export,
direct agent creation, invite test resolution, and issue mutation/write
surfaces.
- Enforced active checkout ownership for agent-authenticated issue
mutations, while preserving explicit management overrides for permitted
managers.
- Restricted sensitive adapter and plugin management operations to
instance-admin or properly scoped actors.
- Tightened company portability and invite probing routes so agents
cannot cross company boundaries.
- Updated access constants and the Company Access UI copy for the new
active-checkout management grant.
- Added focused regression tests covering cross-company denial, agent
self-mutation denial, admin-only operations, and active checkout
ownership.
- Rebased the branch onto `public-gh/master` and fixed validation
fallout from the rebase: heartbeat-context route ordering and a company
import/export e2e fixture that now opts out of direct-hire approval
before using direct agent creation.
- Updated onboarding and signoff e2e setup to create seed agents through
`/agent-hires` plus board approval, so they remain compatible with the
approval-gated new-agent default.
- Addressed Greptile feedback by removing a duplicate company export API
alias, avoiding N+1 reporting-chain lookups in active-checkout override
checks, allowing agent mutations on unassigned `in_progress` issues, and
blocking NAT64 invite-probe targets.
## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run

- `pnpm --filter ui typecheck`
- `pnpm build`
- `pnpm test:e2e -- tests/e2e/onboarding.spec.ts
tests/e2e/signoff-policy.spec.ts`
- `pnpm test:e2e -- tests/e2e/signoff-policy.spec.ts`
- `pnpm test:run` was also run. It failed under default full-suite
parallelism with two order-dependent failures in
`plugin-routes-authz.test.ts` and `routines-e2e.test.ts`; both files
passed when rerun directly together with `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/plugin-routes-authz.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/routines-e2e.test.ts`.
## Risks
- Medium risk: this changes authorization behavior across multiple
sensitive API surfaces, so callers that depended on broad board/company
access may now receive `403` or `409` until they use the correct
governance path.
- Direct agent creation now respects the company-level board-approval
requirement; integrations that need pending hires should use
`/api/companies/:companyId/agent-hires`.
- Active in-progress issue mutations now require checkout ownership or
an explicit management override, which may reveal workflow assumptions
in older automation.

- add byAgentModel endpoint and expandable per-agent model sub-rows in the spend tab
- validate date range inputs with isNaN + badRequest to return HTTP 400 on bad input
- move CostByProject from a local api/costs.ts definition into packages/shared types
- gate providerData query on mainTab === providers, consistent with weekData/windowData/quotaData
- fix byProject range filter from finishedAt to startedAt, consistent with byProvider runs query
- fix WHAM used_percent threshold from <= 1 to < 1 to avoid misclassifying 1% usage as 100%
- replace inline opacity style with tailwind bg-primary/85 class in ProviderQuotaCard
- reset expandedAgents set when company or date range changes
- sort agent model sub-rows by cost descending in ui memo
- add company existence check on quota-windows route to guard against
sentinel and forged company IDs (was a no-op assertCompanyAccess)
- fix useDateRange minuteTick memo frozen at mount; realign interval to
next calendar minute boundary via setTimeout + intervalRef pattern
- fix midnight timer in Costs.tsx to use stable [] dep and
self-scheduling todayTimerRef to avoid StrictMode double-invoke
- return null for rolling window rows with no DB data instead of
rendering $0.00 / 0 tok false zeros
- fix secondsToWindowLabel to handle windows >168h with actual day count
instead of silently falling back to 7d
- fix byProvider.get(p) non-null assertion to use ?? [] fallback
reads local claude and codex auth files server-side, calls provider
quota apis (anthropic oauth usage, chatgpt wham/usage), and surfaces
live usedPercent per window in ProviderQuotaCard with threshold fill colors
adds a new /usage page that lets board operators see how much each ai
provider is consuming across any date window, with per-model breakdowns,
rolling 5h/24h/7d burn windows, weekly budget bars, and a deficit notch
when projected spend is on track to exceed the monthly budget.
- new GET /companies/:id/costs/by-provider endpoint aggregates cost events
by provider + model with pro-rated billing type splits from heartbeat runs
- new GET /companies/:id/costs/window-spend endpoint returns rolling window
spend (5h, 24h, 7d) per provider with no schema changes
- QuotaBar: reusable boxed-border progress bar with green/yellow/red
threshold fill colors and optional deficit notch
- ProviderQuotaCard: per-provider card showing budget allocation bars,
rolling windows, subscription usage, and model breakdown with token/cost
share overlays
- Usage page: date preset toggles (mtd, 7d, 30d, ytd, all, custom),
provider tabs, 30s polling plus ws invalidation on cost_event
- custom date range blocks queries until both dates are selected and
treats boundaries as local-time (not utc midnight) so full days are
included regardless of timezone
- query key to timestamp is floored to the nearest minute to prevent
cache churn on every 30s refetch tick
Rename all workspace packages from @paperclip/* to @paperclipai/* and
the CLI binary from `paperclip` to `paperclipai` in preparation for
npm publishing. Bump CLI version to 0.1.0 and add package metadata
(description, keywords, license, repository, files). Update all
imports, documentation, user-facing messages, and tests accordingly.
