## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents through issue checkout, heartbeat
runs, routines, and auditable control-plane state
> - The runtime path has to recover from lost local processes, transient
adapter failures, blocked dependencies, and routine coalescing without
stranding work
> - The existing branch carried several reliability fixes across
heartbeat scheduling, issue runtime controls, routine dispatch, and
operator-facing run state
> - These changes belong together because they share backend contracts,
migrations, and runtime status semantics
> - This pull request groups the control-plane/runtime slice so it can
merge independently from board UI polish and adapter sandbox work
> - The benefit is safer heartbeat recovery, clearer runtime controls,
and more predictable recurring execution behavior
## What Changed
- Adds bounded heartbeat retry scheduling, scheduled retry state, and
Codex transient failure recovery handling.
- Tightens heartbeat process recovery, blocker wake behavior, issue
comment wake handling, routine dispatch coalescing, and
activity/dashboard bounds.
- Adds runtime-control MCP tools and Paperclip skill docs for issue
workspace runtime management.
- Adds migrations `0061_lively_thor_girl.sql` and
`0062_routine_run_dispatch_fingerprint.sql`.
- Surfaces retry state in run ledger/agent UI and keeps related shared
types synchronized.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-retry-scheduling.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/routines-service.test.ts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run src/tools.test.ts` from `packages/mcp-server`
## Risks
- Medium risk: this touches heartbeat recovery and routine dispatch,
which are central execution paths.
- Migration order matters if split branches land out of order: merge
this PR before branches that assume the new runtime/routine fields.
- Runtime retry behavior should be watched in CI and in local operator
smoke tests because it changes how transient failures are resumed.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents inside execution and project
workspaces
> - Workspace runtime services can be controlled manually by operators
and reused by agent runs
> - Manual start/stop state was not preserved consistently across
workspace policies and routine launches
> - Routine launches also needed branch/workspace variables to default
from the selected workspace context
> - This pull request makes runtime policy state explicit, preserves
manual control, and auto-fills routine branch variables from workspace
data
> - The benefit is less surprising workspace service behavior and fewer
manual inputs when running workspace-scoped routines
## What Changed
- Added runtime-state handling for manual workspace control across
execution and project workspace validators, routes, and services.
- Updated heartbeat/runtime startup behavior so manually stopped
services are respected.
- Auto-filled routine workspace branch variables from available
workspace context.
- Added focused server and UI tests for workspace runtime and routine
variable behavior.
- Removed muted gray background styling from workspace pages and cards
for a cleaner workspace UI.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/routines-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts
ui/src/components/RoutineRunVariablesDialog.test.tsx`
- Result: 55 tests passed, 21 skipped. The embedded Postgres routines
tests skipped on this host with the existing PGlite/Postgres init
warning; workspace-runtime and UI tests passed.
## Risks
- Medium risk: this touches runtime service start/stop policy and
heartbeat launch behavior.
- The focused tests cover manual runtime state, routine variables, and
workspace runtime reuse paths.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Routines are recurring tasks that trigger agents on a schedule or
via webhook
> - Routine triggers store their schedule as a `cronExpression` +
`timezone` in the database
> - The `GET /companies/:companyId/routines` list endpoint is the
primary way API consumers (and the UI) discover all routines and their
triggers
> - But the list endpoint was silently dropping `cronExpression` and
`timezone` from each trigger object — the DB query fetched them, but the
explicit object-construction mapping only forwarded seven other fields
> - This PR fixes the mapping to include `cronExpression` and
`timezone`, and extends the `RoutineListItem.triggers` type to match
> - The benefit is that API consumers can now see the actual schedule
from the list endpoint, and future UI components reading from the list
cache will get accurate schedule data
## What Changed
- **`server/src/services/routines.ts`** — Added `cronExpression` and
`timezone` to the explicit trigger object mapping inside
`routinesService.list()`. The DB query (`listTriggersForRoutineIds`)
already fetched all columns via `SELECT *`; the values were being
discarded during object construction.
- **`packages/shared/src/types/routine.ts`** — Extended
`RoutineListItem.triggers` `Pick<RoutineTrigger, ...>` to include
`cronExpression` and `timezone` so the TypeScript type contract matches
the actual runtime shape.
- **`server/src/__tests__/routines-e2e.test.ts`** — Added assertions to
the existing schedule-trigger E2E test that verify both `cronExpression`
and `timezone` are present in the `GET /companies/:companyId/routines`
list response.
## Verification
```bash
# Run the route + service unit tests
npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/routines-routes.test.ts server/src/__tests__/routines-service.test.ts
# → 21 tests pass
# Confirm cronExpression appears in list response
curl /api/companies/{id}/routines | jq '.[].triggers[].cronExpression'
# → now returns the actual cron string instead of undefined
```
Manual reproduction per the issue:
1. Create a routine with a schedule trigger (`cronExpression: "47 14 * *
*"`, `timezone: "America/Mexico_City"`)
2. `GET /api/companies/{id}/routines` — trigger object now includes
`cronExpression` and `timezone`
## Risks
Low risk. The change only adds two fields to an existing response shape
— no fields removed, no behavior changed. The `cronExpression` is `null`
for non-schedule trigger kinds (webhook, etc.), consistent with
`RoutineTrigger.cronExpression: string | null`. No migration required.
## Model Used
- **Provider:** Anthropic
- **Model:** Claude Sonnet 4.6 (`claude-sonnet-4-6`)
- **Context window:** 200k tokens
- **Mode:** Extended thinking + tool use (agentic)
- Secondary adversarial review: OpenAI Codex (via codex-companion
plugin)

Compare Buffer byte lengths instead of string character lengths before

Add comment explaining the hubSignatureHeader ?? signatureHeader fallback.

Adds two new webhook trigger signing modes for external provider
compatibility:
- github_hmac: accepts X-Hub-Signature-256 header with
HMAC-SHA256(secret, rawBody), no timestamp prefix. Compatible with
GitHub, Sentry, and services following the same standard.
- none: no authentication; the 24-char hex publicId in the URL acts
as the shared secret. For services that cannot add auth headers.
The replay window UI field is hidden when these modes are selected
since neither uses timestamp-based replay protection.

Share issue-assignment wakeup logic between direct issue creation and routine-created execution issues, and add regression coverage for the routine path.

The server rejected manual runs for any non-active routine. Now only
archived routines are blocked — paused routines can still be triggered
manually via "Run now".

- Add trash icon button to delete triggers (full stack: service, route, API client, UI)
- Fix pause/unpause bug where saving routine could revert status by excluding
status from the save payload (status is managed via dedicated pause/resume buttons)
- Add toast feedback for run, pause, and resume actions
- Auto-switch to Runs tab after triggering a manual run
- Add live update invalidation for routine/trigger/run activity events
