## 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.
> For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and
discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5, tool-enabled local shell and
GitHub workflow, exact runtime context window not exposed in this
session.

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.
Closes#1892

The embedded-postgres library hardcodes --lc-messages=en_US.UTF-8 and
strips the parent process environment when spawning initdb/postgres.
In slim Docker images (e.g. node:20-bookworm-slim), the en_US.UTF-8
locale isn't installed, causing initdb to exit with code 1.
Two fixes applied:
1. Add --lc-messages=C to all initdbFlags arrays (overrides the
library's hardcoded locale since our flags come after in the spread)
2. pnpm patch on embedded-postgres to preserve process.env in spawn
calls, preventing loss of PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and other vars
