## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents and company-scoped control-plane
actions for zero-human companies.
> - This change touches the server authz boundary around company
portability, approvals, activity, and heartbeat-run operations.
> - The vulnerability was that board-authenticated callers could cross
company boundaries or create new companies through import paths without
the same authorization checks enforced elsewhere.
> - Once that gap existed, an attacker could chain it into higher-impact
behavior through agent execution paths.
> - The fix needed to harden every confirmed authorization gap in the
reported chain, not just the first route that exposed it.
> - This pull request adds the missing instance-admin and company-access
checks and adds regression tests for each affected route.
> - The benefit is that cross-company actions and new-company import
flows now follow the same control-plane authorization rules as the rest
of the product.
## What Changed
- Required instance-admin access for `new_company` import preview/apply
flows in `server/src/routes/companies.ts`.
- Required company access before approval decision routes in
`server/src/routes/approvals.ts`.
- Required company access for activity creation and heartbeat-run issue
listing in `server/src/routes/activity.ts`.
- Required company access before heartbeat cancellation in
`server/src/routes/agents.ts`.
- Added regression coverage in the corresponding server route tests.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run
src/__tests__/company-portability-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/approval-routes-idempotency.test.ts
src/__tests__/activity-routes.test.ts
src/__tests__/agent-permissions-routes.test.ts`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- Prior verification on the original security patch branch also included
`pnpm build`.
## Risks
- Low code risk: the change is narrow and only adds missing
authorization gates to existing routes.
- Operational risk: the advisory is already public, so this PR should be
merged quickly to minimize the public unpatched window.
- Residual product risk remains around open signup / bootstrap defaults,
which was intentionally left out of this patch because the current
first-user onboarding flow depends on it.
## Model Used
- OpenAI GPT-5 Codex coding agent with tool use and local code execution
in the Codex CLI environment.

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.

Add AES-256-GCM local encrypted secrets provider with auto-generated
master key, stub providers for AWS/GCP/Vault, and a secrets service
that normalizes adapter configs (converting sensitive inline values to
secret refs in strict mode) and resolves secret refs back to plain
values at runtime. Extract redaction utilities from agent routes into
shared module. Redact sensitive values in activity logs, config
revisions, and approval payloads. Block rollback of revisions
containing redacted secrets. Filter hidden issues from list queries.

Agent management: hire endpoint with permission gates and pending_approval status,
config revision tracking with rollback, agent duplicate route, permission CRUD.
Block pending_approval agents from auth, heartbeat, and assignments.
Approvals: revision request/resubmit flow, approval comments CRUD, issue-approval
linking, auto-wake agents on approval decisions with context snapshot.
Costs: per-agent breakdown, period filtering (month/week/day/all), cost by agent
list endpoint.
Adapters: agentConfigurationDoc on all adapters, /llms/agent-configuration.txt
reflection routes. Inject PAPERCLIP_APPROVAL_ID, PAPERCLIP_APPROVAL_STATUS,
PAPERCLIP_LINKED_ISSUE_IDS into adapter environments.
Sidebar badges endpoint for pending approval/inbox counts. Dashboard and company
settings extensions.

New routes: companies, approvals, costs, dashboard, authz. New
services: companies, approvals, costs, dashboard, heartbeat,
activity-log. Add auth middleware and structured error handling.
Expand existing agent and issue routes with richer CRUD operations.
