## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies; humans
operate the board through the React UI.
> - The board gates company access via `CompanyProvider`
(CompanyContext) and onboards new humans through the invite landing page
at `/invite/:token`.
> - Reported symptom: opening an invite link and signing in works, but
the page then renders completely blank (black in dark mode).
> - End-to-end browser testing reproduced a client-side crash:
`companiesQuery.data?.some is not a function` and `Cannot read
properties of undefined (reading 'filter')`.
> - Root cause: `CompanyProvider` and `InviteLandingPage` both use the
React Query key `["companies"]` but return **different shapes** — `{
companies, unauthorized }` vs a bare `Company[]` — so they silently
corrupt the shared cache entry; whichever component reads the other's
shape calls `.some()`/`.filter()` on the wrong type and throws,
unmounting the tree.
> - Owners never hit it (they never mount the invite page); only
invitees landing on `/invite/:token` crash.
> - This PR unifies the `["companies"]` query into a single shared
definition so the cache entry always has one shape and the two consumers
can't drift apart again.
> - The benefit is a working invite/onboarding flow and removal of a
whole class of cache-shape bugs on this key.
## What Changed
- Add `ui/src/api/companies-query.ts` exporting a single shared
`companiesListQueryOptions` (and `CompanyListResult`) — one `queryKey` +
one `queryFn` that always returns the wrapped `{ companies, unauthorized
}` shape, documented with the shared-cache contract.
- `ui/src/context/CompanyContext.tsx` now uses
`useQuery(companiesListQueryOptions)` instead of an inline copy of that
query.
- `ui/src/pages/InviteLanding.tsx` uses the same
`companiesListQueryOptions` (with its own `enabled` gate), reads
`companiesQuery.data?.companies` for the membership checks, and uses
`queryClient.fetchQuery(companiesListQueryOptions)` in the post-auth
path — so it reads and writes the identical shape.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` — clean.
- `vitest run src/pages/InviteLanding.test.tsx
src/context/CompanyContext.test.tsx` — 17/17 pass, unchanged.
- Manual end-to-end via a real browser against a LAN-exposed
authenticated instance:
- Owner creates an Owner-role invite.
- New user opens the link and registers — **the "awaiting approval"
screen renders** (previously blank), `POST /api/invites/:token/accept`
returns `202`, no console errors.
- Owner approves at Company Settings → Access (`200`); invitee becomes
an active member.
- Invitee signs in — full board loads; smoke test of dashboard / issues
/ inbox / routines / goals / company settings — all render, zero
`pageerror`s.
- Before: invite page `#root` empty after sign-in (blank/black). After:
awaiting-approval panel renders. (Screenshots available on request.)
## Risks
- Low. `CompanyProvider`'s query behavior is unchanged (same `queryFn`
logic, just extracted into a shared module). `InviteLandingPage` now
reads the same shape it writes. No API, schema, or migration changes.
Existing tests pass unchanged.
## Model Used

extended thinking + tool use; driving Claude Code with browser
automation for end-to-end reproduction and verification.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies by keeping
task ownership, approvals, and operator control inside one control
plane.
> - Agent permissions and plugin-hosted company settings sit on the
boundary between autonomy and governance.
> - V1 needs scoped task assignment rules, plugin extension points, and
clearer company access surfaces without weakening company boundaries.
> - The branch builds the core authorization service, plugin SDK/host
APIs, and UI simplifications needed to support those controls.
> - Paperclip EE plugin surfaces were intentionally moved out of this
core PR per review direction, so this PR now carries only the public
core/plugin infrastructure work.
> - The latest updates preserve the PAP-9937 branch changes that belong
in this PR, remove the `design/` artifacts, and exclude the experimental
`plugin-briefs` package.
> - Greptile feedback was applied through the authorization/audit paths
and the final cleanup commit was re-reviewed at 5/5 with no unresolved
Greptile threads.
> - The benefit is safer assignment control with extension hooks for
richer permission products while preserving simple defaults for normal
operators.
## What Changed
- Added scoped task-assignment authorization decisions and routed
issue/agent assignment mutations through the authorization service.
- Added plugin SDK and host APIs for company settings slots,
authorization policy/grant management, assignment previews, and bridge
invocation scope propagation.
- Simplified core company access UI and moved advanced controls behind
plugin-provided settings surfaces.
- Added retry-now affordances for blocked issue next-step notices.
- Added protected-assignment enforcement for persisted
agent/project/issue policies, including explicit-grant fallback
behavior.
- Added incremental principal-access compatibility backfill for active
agent memberships and role-default human permission grants.
- Added the Markdown code block wrap action fix from the latest branch
changes.
- Removed `design/` artifacts from the PR and removed
`packages/plugins/plugin-briefs` from the final diff.
- Addressed Greptile feedback for plugin actor sanitization, legacy
membership handling, audit pagination, unknown grant-scope metadata, and
startup test mocks.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/access-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts` -> 2 files passed, 54
tests passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/access-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/company-portability.test.ts` -> 3 files passed, 62
tests passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/authorization-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/plugin-access-authorization-host-services.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/server-startup-feedback-export.test.ts` -> 3 files
passed, 28 tests passed.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck` -> passed.
- `git diff --check` -> passed.
- `node ./scripts/check-docker-deps-stage.mjs` -> passed.
- `CI=true pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts` -> passed
with no lockfile update.
- `pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.interaction.test.tsx` -> 1 test passed.
- `git ls-files design packages/plugins/plugin-briefs | wc -l` -> 0.
- GitHub CI on `40cd83b53` -> all checks passed, merge state `CLEAN`.
- Greptile on `40cd83b53` -> 5/5, 102 files reviewed, 0
comments/annotations added, 0 unresolved review threads.
- Confirmed the PR diff contains no `design/`,
`packages/plugins/plugin-briefs`, `pnpm-lock.yaml`, or
`.github/workflows` changes.
## Risks
- Medium: task assignment authorization paths are behaviorally stricter
for protected/private policy data, so existing plugin-authored policies
may block assignment until explicit grants or approval flows are
configured.
- Medium: plugin-host authorization APIs expand the surface area
available to trusted plugins and need careful review for company
scoping.
- Low: startup now performs a principal-access compatibility backfill,
but the migration and runtime backfill use conflict-tolerant inserts.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies, so agent
work needs visible ownership, recovery, and operator controls.
> - This local branch had accumulated several related control-plane
reliability and operator-experience fixes across recovery actions,
watchdog folding, model-profile defaults, mentions, markdown editing,
plugin launchers, and small UI polish.
> - The branch needed to be converted into a PR against the current
`origin/master` without losing dirty work or including lockfile/workflow
churn.
> - The safest standalone shape is a single rollup PR because the
recovery/server/UI files overlap heavily across the local commits and
splitting would create avoidable conflicts.
> - This pull request replays the local branch onto latest
`origin/master`, preserves the uncommitted work as logical commits, and
adds a Zod 4 validator compatibility fix found during verification.
> - The benefit is that the May 17 local branch can be reviewed and
merged as one coherent, conflict-free branch under the 100-file Greptile
limit.
## What Changed
- Rebased the local May 17 branch work onto current `origin/master` in a
dedicated worktree.
- Preserved and committed previously dirty changes for recovery retry
handling, plugin/sidebar launcher polish, and `.herenow` ignores.
- Added recovery-action behavior for returning source issues to `todo`
when retrying source-scoped recovery.
- Included the existing local recovery/liveness/watchdog fold, Codex
cheap-profile, markdown/mention, duplicate-agent, and UI polish commits
from the branch.
- Normalized shared validator `z.record(...)` schemas to explicit
string-key records for Zod 4 compatibility.
- Confirmed the PR has no `pnpm-lock.yaml` or `.github/workflows/*`
changes and stays below the 100-file Greptile limit.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts`
- `npm run install` in
`node_modules/.pnpm/sqlite3@5.1.7/node_modules/sqlite3` to build the
local native sqlite3 binding after installing with scripts disabled
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts
packages/shared/src/project-mentions.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-model-profile.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts

- First pass: 13 files passed with 201 passing tests; 3 server files
failed before sqlite3 native binding was built.
- After rebuilding sqlite3:
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-model-profile.test.ts`,
`server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts`, and
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-active-run-output-watchdog.test.ts`
passed/loaded; embedded Postgres tests were skipped by the local host
guard.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
## Risks
- Medium risk: this is a broad rollup PR across recovery semantics,
server tests, shared validators, and UI surfaces.
- Some embedded Postgres tests skipped locally due the host guard, so CI
should provide the stronger database-backed signal.
- UI changes were covered by component tests, but no browser screenshot
was captured in this PR creation pass.
- This branch may overlap with existing recovery/liveness PR work; merge
this PR independently or restack/close overlapping branches rather than
merging duplicate implementations together.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - The board UI keeps issue pages responsive by subscribing to live
activity events and invalidating TanStack Query caches.
> - Issue documents are first-class issue artifacts, but document
activity events were not refreshing the document list, active document,
or revision caches.
> - That meant a user could update a document on an issue and another
open board would keep showing stale document content until a page
reload.
> - This pull request routes issue document activity events through the
same live invalidation path used for issue and comment updates.
> - The benefit is that issue document changes become visible
automatically on active issue pages without forcing operators to reload
the board.
## What Changed
- Added live-update cache invalidation for `issue.document_created`,
`issue.document_updated`, `issue.document_restored`, and
`issue.document_deleted` activity events.
- Invalidated the issue document list, the active document cache, and
document revisions for both issue id and identifier references when the
activity payload includes a document key.
- Added regression coverage for document activity events so active issue
pages refetch document caches without inactive-only behavior.
- Simplified the document invalidation test mock after Greptile feedback
so the test only models the cache reads it actually uses.
## Verification
- `git rebase public-gh/master` reported the branch was up to date after
fetching `public-gh/master`.
- `pnpm run preflight:workspace-links` passed.
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/ui
ui/src/context/LiveUpdatesProvider.test.ts` passed: 1 file, 16 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` passed.
- PR checks passed on `eecd19f7b0355490f17314c94bffa06aada8f9e3`:
`policy`, `verify`, `e2e`, all 4 serialized server shards, `Canary Dry
Run`, `security/snyk`, and `Greptile Review`.
- Greptile completed with `5/5` confidence and no unresolved review
threads.
## Risks
- Low risk. This expands cache invalidation for existing live activity
events and does not change API contracts, database schema, migrations,
or document persistence behavior.
- No migrations or `pnpm-lock.yaml` changes are included.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents through visible, governable task
and routine workflows.
> - The routines UI includes the routine detail page, properties panel,
history tab, and shared sidebar components.
> - PR #5703 changed that workflow by widening the routine properties
panel and moving revision inspection/comparison into dialogs.
> - The product direction for that change is being paused for now, so
the safest path is a direct revert instead of partial edits.
> - This pull request reverts merge commit
`74cb560c41` from #5703.
> - The benefit is restoring the prior routines UI behavior while
keeping the revert easy to review and re-apply later if needed.
## What Changed
- Reverted #5703: `fix(ui): improve routine properties panel and history
UX`.
- Restored the previous routine properties panel sizing, panel context
API, routine detail layout, and routine history rendering behavior.
- Removed the reverted sidebar pane test additions and restored the
previous focused routine history test expectations.
## Verification
- `git diff --check origin/master..HEAD`
- `pnpm vitest run ui/src/components/RoutineHistoryTab.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
### Screenshots
This is a direct revert of #5703. The visual state after this PR
corresponds to the "Before" screenshots from #5703, and the state being
removed corresponds to the "After" screenshots from #5703.

## Risks
- Low technical risk: this is a clean Git revert of a recently merged
UI-only PR.
- Product risk: the routine properties panel and revision history return
to the older, narrower workflow that #5703 was improving.
- Re-application risk: future work that wants the #5703 behavior back
should re-apply it deliberately rather than cherry-picking around this
revert.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - Routines are the recurring-work surface where operators configure
schedules, executions, activity, and revision history.
> - The routine detail view uses a contextual right properties panel for
triggers, runs, activity, and history.
> - That panel was too cramped for routine workflows: the routine header
could collapse at constrained widths, and revision previews/comparisons
were trying to live inside the same narrow panel.
> - This pull request makes the routine properties panel wider and
responsive without changing the default panel behavior for other pages.
> - It also moves routine revision viewing and comparison into focused
dialogs so history stays usable instead of rendering dense revision
content inside the right panel.
> - The benefit is a cleaner routine workflow: triggers remain
scannable, the main routine stays readable, and revisions can be
inspected, compared, and restored without fighting the sidebar width.
## What Changed
- Added optional per-panel layout options for storage key, default
width, min/max width, and compact viewport behavior.
- Set the routine properties panel to use its own 400px default width
and persistence key, while compacting to 320px on narrower viewports.
- Made the shared resizable sidebar support right-side panes, custom
width bounds, compact max width, and keyboard resizing.
- Fixed the routine detail header so title text and action controls
remain readable beside the properties panel at constrained widths.
- Reworked routine history so selecting a revision opens a read-only
snapshot dialog instead of trying to render the whole revision inside
the right panel.
- Added a side-by-side current-vs-selected revision comparison dialog
with clearer diff markers for structured fields, triggers, and
variables.
- Added focused tests for the resizable pane and routine history
behavior.
## Verification
- `pnpm vitest run ui/src/components/RoutineHistoryTab.test.tsx
ui/src/components/ResizableSidebarPane.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `git diff --check`
- Browser E2E in TestCo at `http://localhost:3100/TES/dashboard`:
- created and edited a routine
- added, edited, toggled, and deleted schedule triggers
- paused automation
- ran the routine and stopped the live run
- verified runs, activity, history, snapshot dialog, compare mode,
restore confirmation, routine list, recent runs, row actions, panel
close/reopen, and constrained-width layout

#### History Panel
Before, selecting a revision attempted to show dense revision content
inside the already narrow right panel. After, history remains a compact
list and revision details open separately.

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/4c139238-8494-4438-89e1-4277d05bc3aa"
/> |
#### Revision Snapshot
The selected revision now opens in a dedicated read-only dialog instead
of crowding the properties panel.

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f930f50f-7016-434b-bd81-d8d97304c528"
/>
#### Revision Compare
Historical revisions can be compared side-by-side with the current
revision, including changed structured fields and trigger differences.
<img width="1740" height="1287" alt="revision-compare"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/5640201e-de4f-446b-8941-1b0f140c56d7"
/>
## Risks
- Low to moderate UI risk: the shared resizable pane API gained optional
layout parameters, but existing callers keep the previous defaults.
- Routine history now uses dialogs for revision viewing and comparison,
so reviewers should confirm the new workflow feels right for restore and
compare.
- Routine panel width now persists under a routine-specific key, so
previous global properties panel width preferences do not carry into
routines.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip relies on issue identifiers, execution policies, and agent
heartbeat rules to keep autonomous work auditable.
> - Safety checks need to reject ambiguous agent handoffs, and
identifier parsing needs to support Cloud tenant prefixes.
> - Agent instructions also need to make final-disposition rules
explicit so work does not stall in vague states.
> - This pull request isolates backend correctness and governance
hardening from the UI and recovery-system-notice branches.
> - The benefit is safer in-review transitions, better identifier
compatibility, and clearer agent operating contracts.
## What Changed
- Fixed run-aware confirmation ordering and interrupted-run state
cleanup.
- Added Cloud tenant identity bootstrap and alphanumeric issue
identifier support across shared parsing and server routes.
- Guarded agent-authored `in_review` updates unless a real review path
exists.
- Tightened heartbeat disposition instructions in adapter
utilities/default AGENTS/Paperclip skill.

ui/src/lib/issue-chat-messages.test.ts
ui/src/lib/issue-reference.test.ts

## Risks
- Medium control-plane risk: in-review update validation changes agent
behavior. The error message is explicit and tests cover allowed review
paths.
## Model Used
- OpenAI GPT-5 Codex via Paperclip `codex_local` adapter, with
shell/git/GitHub CLI tool use.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is a control plane for autonomous AI companies.
> - Issues are the core unit of work, and issue comments are how board
users and agents coordinate execution.
> - Some issue conversations need to produce plans and approvals instead
of immediate implementation work.
> - The existing issue contract did not distinguish standard execution
comments from planning-oriented issue work.
> - This pull request adds an issue work-mode contract and board UI
affordances for standard vs planning mode.
> - The benefit is that planning-mode issues can be created, displayed,
discussed, and carried through agent heartbeat context without losing
the normal issue workflow.
## What Changed
- Added `standard` / `planning` issue work-mode contracts across DB,
shared validators/types, server issue flows, plugin protocol, and
adapter heartbeat payloads.
- Added an idempotent `0081_optimal_dormammu` migration for
`issues.work_mode`, ordered after current `public-gh/master` migrations.
- Updated heartbeat/context summaries and issue-thread interaction
behavior so planning work mode is preserved when creating suggested
follow-up issues.
- Added UI support for planning-mode issue creation, issue rows, detail
composer styling, and composer work-mode toggles.
- Added focused server/shared/UI tests plus a Playwright visual
verification spec for planning-mode surfaces.
- Rebased the branch onto current `public-gh/master` and added durable
planning-mode screenshots under `doc/assets/pap-3368/`.
## Verification

## Risks
- Medium migration risk: this adds a non-null issue column. The
migration uses `ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS` so installations that applied
an older branch-local migration number can still apply the final
numbered migration safely.
- Medium contract risk: issue payloads, plugin payloads, and adapter
heartbeat payloads now include work mode; compatibility is handled by
defaulting missing values to `standard`.
- UI risk is moderate because composer controls changed; focused
component tests and visual e2e coverage exercise standard vs planning
display and toggle behavior.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is a control plane operators use repeatedly to supervise
agent companies.
> - Common operator workflows depend on fast scanning of inboxes, issue
sidebars, workspaces, cost totals, and runtime services.
> - Several small UI and service gaps made those workflows slower or
less clear.
> - This pull request groups the operator-facing QoL changes that can
stand alone from recovery and adapter work.
> - The benefit is a denser, clearer board experience for issue triage
and workspace operation.
## What Changed
- Added inbox assignee/project grouping and issue list token/runtime
totals.
- Improved issue properties with removable blocker chips and workspace
task links.
- Improved execution workspace layout, runtime controls, issues tab
default, and stopped-port reuse behavior.
- Added mobile markdown/routine dialog fixes, page title company names,
sidebar polish, and dashboard run task label cleanup.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/lib/inbox.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx
ui/src/components/WorkspaceRuntimeControls.test.tsx
server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/costs-service.test.ts`
## Risks
- Medium UI risk because this touches several operator surfaces. The
branch is intentionally grouped around workflow/QoL files and keeps the
file count below the Greptile limit.
## Model Used
- OpenAI GPT-5 Codex via Paperclip `codex_local` adapter, with
shell/git/GitHub CLI tool use.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents through a company-scoped control
plane.
> - The affected surface is the board UI for issue threads, issue lists,
routines, dialogs, navigation, and issue review indicators.
> - Closed PR #4692 bundled backend, schema, docs, workflow, and UI/QoL
work into one oversized change set.
> - Greptile could not keep reviewing that broad PR because it exceeded
the 100-file review limit and mixed unrelated concerns.
> - This pull request extracts the UI/QoL slice into a fresh branch
under the review limit while leaving workflow and lockfile churn out.
> - The benefit is a focused review path for the board UI performance
and workflow improvements without reopening the oversized PR.
## What Changed
- Added long issue-thread virtualization, scroll-container binding,
anchor preservation, latest-comment jump targeting, and related
regression/perf fixtures.
- Improved issue list scalability with scroll-based loading, server
offset parameters, and pagination-focused UI tests.
- Reduced new issue dialog typing churn and split dialog action
subscriptions so broad layout/nav surfaces avoid unnecessary renders.
- Added routine variables help and routine description mention options
for users, agents, and projects.
- Added productivity review badge/link UI and fixed the badge to use
Paperclip's company-prefixed router link.
- Kept the split PR below Greptile's review limit and excluded
`.github/workflows/pr.yml` and `pnpm-lock.yaml`.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --no-frozen-lockfile` in the clean worktree to install
`@tanstack/react-virtual` locally without committing lockfile churn.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui exec vitest run --config
vitest.config.ts src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
src/components/IssuesList.test.tsx
src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx src/pages/Routines.test.tsx
src/pages/Issues.test.tsx` passed: 5 files, 83 tests.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck` passed.
- `git diff --check origin/master..HEAD` passed.
- Split-scope checks: 53 changed files; no `.github/workflows/pr.yml`;
no `pnpm-lock.yaml`.
- Screenshots were not captured in this heartbeat; the changes are
primarily virtualization, routing, pagination, and editor behavior
covered by focused regression tests.
## Risks
- Moderate UI risk because issue-thread virtualization changes scroll
behavior on long conversations; regression tests cover anchor jumps,
latest-comment targeting, row metadata, and short-thread fallback.
- Moderate integration risk because the issue-list offset parameter and
productivity review field depend on matching API behavior.
- Dependency risk: the UI package adds `@tanstack/react-virtual` while
repository policy keeps `pnpm-lock.yaml` out of PRs, so CI must resolve
dependency changes through the repo's normal lockfile policy.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies, so
backend task ownership, recovery, review visibility, and company-scoped
limits need to stay enforceable without UI-only coupling.
> - Closed PR #4692 bundled those backend changes with UI workflow,
docs, skills, workflow, and lockfile churn.
> - PAP-2694 asks for a clean backend/control-plane slice from that
closed branch.
> - This branch starts from current `master` and mines only the `cli`,
`packages/db`, `packages/shared`, and `server` contracts/tests needed
for the backend behavior.
> - It explicitly excludes UI workflow/performance work,
`.github/workflows/pr.yml`, `pnpm-lock.yaml`, docs, skills,
package-script, adapter UI build-config, and perf fixture script
changes; the only UI files are fixture/test updates required by the
tightened shared `Company` contract.
> - The benefit is a smaller reviewable PR that preserves the
control-plane fixes while staying under Greptile s 100-file review
limit.
## What Changed
- Added company-scoped attachment-size limits through DB
schema/migrations, shared company portability contracts, CLI
import/export coverage, and server attachment upload enforcement.
- Added productivity review service/API behavior for no-comment streak,
long-active, and high-churn review issues, including request-depth
clamping and issue summary exposure.
- Hardened issue ownership and recovery/control-plane paths: peer-agent
mutation denial, issue tree pause/resume behavior, stranded recovery
origins, and related activity/test coverage.
- Preserved related backend contract updates for routine timestamp
variables and managed agent instruction bundles because they live in
shared/server contracts from the source branch.
- Addressed Greptile feedback by making `Company.attachmentMaxBytes`
non-optional, simplifying review request-depth clamping, fixing the
migration final newline, and enforcing the process-level attachment cap
as the final ceiling for uploads.
- Added minimal company fixtures needed for repo-wide typecheck/build
and kept the PR to 66 changed files with forbidden/non-slice paths
excluded.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `git diff --check origin/master..HEAD`
- `git diff --name-only origin/master..HEAD | wc -l` -> 66 files
- `git diff --name-only origin/master..HEAD -- .github/workflows/pr.yml

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck && pnpm --filter
@paperclipai/ui build`
## Risks
- Includes migrations `0073_shiny_salo.sql` and
`0074_striped_genesis.sql`; merge ordering matters if another PR adds
migrations first.
- This is intentionally backend-only apart from fixture/test updates
forced by shared type correctness; UI affordances from PR #4692 are not
present here and should land in separate UI slices.
- The worktree install emitted plugin SDK bin-link warnings for unbuilt
plugin packages, but the targeted tests and package typechecks completed
successfully.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip's board UI relies on compact selectors for frequent issue
and agent edits.
> - Inline selectors often live inside larger keyboard-aware surfaces
such as composers and popovers.
> - Arrow, enter, tab, and escape keys handled by the selector should
not leak to parent document shortcuts.
> - Stale company selection should also stay hidden until the company
list confirms it is valid.
> - This pull request tightens inline selector keyboard handling and
adds regression coverage for stale company bootstrap behavior.
> - The benefit is fewer accidental parent interactions and safer
company-scoped UI initialization.
## What Changed
- Added a stable empty `recentOptionIds` default so selector filtering
does not get a new array every render.
- Mirrored highlighted option state into a ref so Enter/Tab commits the
current highlighted option reliably after keyboard navigation.
- Stopped propagation for selector-owned navigation/commit/escape keys.
- Added jsdom regressions for inline selector keyboard handling and
CompanyProvider stale selection behavior.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/InlineEntitySelector.test.tsx
ui/src/context/CompanyContext.test.tsx`
- Targeted selector and CompanyProvider tests pass cleanly without React
`act(...)` warnings.
- Screenshots not attached: this is keyboard/state behavior covered by
component tests.
## Risks
- Low risk: changes are scoped to inline selector key handling and
tests. The main behavior shift is intentionally preventing handled
selector keys from reaching parent listeners.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The board UI is the operator’s control surface for selecting the
active company
> - A company id stored in localStorage can become stale across resets,
imports, or deleted companies
> - Exposing that stale id before companies load can briefly put
downstream UI in an invalid company scope
> - This pull request defers selected-company exposure until the loaded
company list validates the stored id
> - The benefit is a cleaner company-selection bootstrap path and fewer
transient invalid API requests
## What Changed
- Initialized `CompanyProvider` selection as `null` until companies
finish loading.
- Reused a stored company id only when it exists in the loaded
selectable company list.
- Cleared storage and selected state when no companies are available.
- Added jsdom regression coverage for stale stored ids before and after
company loading.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run --project @paperclipai/ui
ui/src/context/CompanyContext.test.tsx`
## Risks
- Low risk. The change only affects selection bootstrap and keeps valid
stored selections intact.
- There may be a slightly longer initial `null` selected-company state
while the company list is loading.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - Operators supervise that work through issues, comments, approvals,
and the board UI.
> - Some agent proposals need structured board/user decisions, not
hidden markdown conventions or heavyweight governed approvals.
> - Issue-thread interactions already provide a natural thread-native
surface for proposed tasks and questions.
> - This pull request extends that surface with request confirmations,
richer interaction cards, and agent/plugin/MCP helpers.
> - The benefit is that plan approvals and yes/no decisions become
explicit, auditable, and resumable without losing the single-issue
workflow.
## What Changed
- Added persisted issue-thread interactions for suggested tasks,
structured questions, and request confirmations.
- Added board UI cards for interaction review, selection, question
answers, and accept/reject confirmation flows.
- Added MCP and plugin SDK helpers for creating interaction cards from
agents/plugins.
- Updated agent wake instructions, onboarding assets, Paperclip skill
docs, and public docs to prefer structured confirmations for
issue-scoped decisions.
- Rebased the branch onto `public-gh/master` and renumbered branch
migrations to `0063` and `0064`; the idempotency migration uses `ADD
COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS` for old branch users.
## Verification
- `git diff --check public-gh/master..HEAD`
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts
packages/mcp-server/src/tools.test.ts

server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interaction-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-service.test.ts
server/src/services/issue-thread-interactions.test.ts` -> 9 files / 79
tests passed
- `pnpm -r typecheck` -> passed, including `packages/db` migration
numbering check
## Risks
- Medium: this adds a new issue-thread interaction model across
db/shared/server/ui/plugin surfaces.
- Migration risk is reduced by placing this branch after current master
migrations (`0063`, `0064`) and making the idempotency column add
idempotent for users who applied the old branch numbering.
- UI interaction behavior is covered by component tests, but this PR
does not include browser screenshots.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Human operators supervise that work through issue lists, issue
detail, comments, inbox groups, markdown references, and
profile/activity surfaces
> - The branch had many small UI fixes that improve the operator loop
but do not need to ship with backend runtime migrations
> - These changes belong together as board workflow polish because they
affect scanning, navigation, issue context, comment state, and markdown
clarity
> - This pull request groups the UI-only slice so it can merge
independently from runtime/backend changes
> - The benefit is a clearer board experience with better issue context,
steadier optimistic updates, and more predictable keyboard navigation
## What Changed
- Improves issue properties, sub-issue actions, blocker chips, and issue
list/detail refresh behavior.
- Adds blocker context above the issue composer and stabilizes
queued/interrupted comment UI state.
- Improves markdown issue/GitHub link rendering and opens external
markdown links in a new tab.
- Adds inbox group keyboard navigation and fold/unfold support.
- Polishes activity/avatar/profile/settings/workspace presentation
details.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx ui/src/lib/inbox.test.ts
ui/src/lib/optimistic-issue-comments.test.ts`
## Risks
- Low to medium risk: changes are UI-focused but cover high-traffic
issue and inbox surfaces.
- This branch intentionally does not include the backend runtime changes
from the companion PR; where UI calls newer API filters, unsupported
servers should continue to fail visibly through existing API error
handling.
- Visual screenshots were not captured in this heartbeat; targeted
component/helper tests cover the changed behavior.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies.
> - V1 needs to stay local-first while also supporting shared,
authenticated deployments.
> - Human operators need real identities, company membership, invite
flows, profile surfaces, and company-scoped access controls.
> - Agents and operators also need the existing issue, inbox, workspace,
approval, and plugin flows to keep working under those authenticated
boundaries.
> - This branch accumulated the multi-user implementation, follow-up QA
fixes, workspace/runtime refinements, invite UX improvements,
release-branch conflict resolution, and review hardening.
> - This pull request consolidates that branch onto the current `master`
branch as a single reviewable PR.
> - The benefit is a complete multi-user implementation path with tests
and docs carried forward without dropping existing branch work.
## What Changed
- Added authenticated human-user access surfaces: auth/session routes,
company user directory, profile settings, company access/member
management, join requests, and invite management.
- Added invite creation, invite landing, onboarding, logo/branding,
invite grants, deduped join requests, and authenticated multi-user E2E
coverage.
- Tightened company-scoped and instance-admin authorization across
board, plugin, adapter, access, issue, and workspace routes.
- Added profile-image URL validation hardening, avatar preservation on
name-only profile updates, and join-request uniqueness migration cleanup
for pending human requests.
- Added an atomic member role/status/grants update path so Company
Access saves no longer leave partially updated permissions.
- Improved issue chat, inbox, assignee identity rendering,
sidebar/account/company navigation, workspace routing, and execution
workspace reuse behavior for multi-user operation.
- Added and updated server/UI tests covering auth, invites, membership,
issue workspace inheritance, plugin authz, inbox/chat behavior, and
multi-user flows.
- Merged current `public-gh/master` into this branch, resolved all

## Risks
- High review surface area: this PR contains the accumulated multi-user
branch plus follow-up fixes, so reviewers should focus especially on
company-boundary enforcement and authenticated-vs-local deployment
behavior.
- UI behavior changed across invites, inbox, issue chat, access
settings, and sidebar navigation; no browser screenshots are included in
this branch-consolidation PR.
- Plugin install, upgrade, and lifecycle/config mutations now require
instance-admin access, which is intentional but may change expectations
for non-admin board users.
- A join-request dedupe migration rejects duplicate pending human
requests before creating unique indexes; deployments with unusual
historical duplicates should review the migration behavior.
- Company member role/status/grant saves now use a new combined
endpoint; older separate endpoints remain for compatibility.
- Full production build was not run locally in this heartbeat; CI should
cover the full matrix.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex coding agent, GPT-5-based model, CLI/tool-use
environment. Exact deployed model identifier and context window were not
exposed by the runtime.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Operators rely on issue, inbox, and routine views to understand what
the company is doing in real time
> - Those views need to stay fast and readable even when issue lists,
markdown comments, and run metadata get large
> - The current branch had a coherent set of UI and live-update
improvements spread across issue search, issue detail rendering, routine
affordances, and workspace lookups
> - This pull request groups those board-facing changes into one
standalone branch that can merge independently of the heartbeat/runtime
work
> - The benefit is a faster, clearer issue and routine workflow without
changing the underlying task model
## What Changed
- Show routine execution issues by default and rename the filter to
`Hide routine runs` so the default state no longer looks like an active
filter.
- Show the routine name in the run dialog and tighten the issue
properties pane with a workspace link, copy-on-click behavior, and an
inline parent arrow.
- Reduce issue detail rerenders, keep queued issue chat mounted, improve
issues page search responsiveness, and speed up issues first paint.
- Add inbox "other search results", refresh visible issue runs after
status updates, and optimize workspace lookups through summary-mode
execution workspace queries.
- Improve markdown wrapping and scrolling behavior for long strings and
self-comment code blocks.
- Relax the markdown sanitizer assertion so the test still validates
safety after the new wrap-friendly inline styles.
## Verification
- `pnpm vitest run ui/src/components/IssuesList.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/inbox.test.ts ui/src/pages/Issues.test.tsx
ui/src/context/BreadcrumbContext.test.tsx
ui/src/context/LiveUpdatesProvider.test.ts
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx
ui/src/api/execution-workspaces.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/execution-workspaces-routes.test.ts`
## Risks
- This touches several issue-facing UI surfaces at once, so regressions
would most likely show up as stale rendering, search result mismatches,
or small markdown presentation differences.
- The workspace lookup optimization depends on the summary-mode route
shape staying aligned between server and UI.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent in the Codex CLI environment.
Exact backend model deployment ID was not exposed in-session.
Tool-assisted editing and shell execution were used.

## 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

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - A core part of that is the operator experience around reading issue
state, agent chat, and sub-task structure
> - The current branch had a long run of issue-detail and issue-list UX
fixes that all improve how humans follow and steer active work
> - Those changes mostly live in the UI/chat surface and should be
reviewed together instead of mixed with workspace/runtime work
> - This pull request packages the issue-detail, chat, markdown, and
sub-issue list improvements into one standalone change
> - The benefit is a cleaner, less jumpy, more reliable issue workflow
on desktop and mobile without coupling it to unrelated server/runtime
refactors
## What Changed
- Stabilized issue chat runtime wiring, optimistic comment handling,
queued-comment cancellation, and composer anchoring during live updates
- Fixed several issue-detail rendering and navigation regressions
including placeholder bleed, local polling scope, mobile inbox-to-issue
transitions, and visible refresh resets
- Improved markdown and rich-content handling with advisory image
normalization, editor fallback behavior, touch mention recovery, and
`issue:` quicklook links
- Refined sub-issue behavior with parent-derived defaults, current-user
inheritance fixes, empty-state cleanup, and a reusable issue-list
presentation for sub-issues
- Added targeted UI tests for the new issue-detail, chat scroll/message,
placeholder-data, markdown, and issue-list behaviors
## Verification
- `pnpm vitest run ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownEditor.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssuesList.test.tsx
ui/src/context/LiveUpdatesProvider.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/issue-chat-messages.test.ts

ui/src/lib/issue-detail-subissues.test.ts
ui/src/lib/query-placeholder-data.test.tsx
ui/src/hooks/usePaperclipIssueRuntime.test.tsx`
## Risks
- Medium: this branch touches the highest-traffic issue-detail UI paths,
so regressions would show up as chat/thread or sub-issue UX glitches
- The changes are UI-heavy and would benefit from reviewer screenshots
or a quick manual browser pass before merge
## 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

Reconcile the PR with current master, preserve both PWA capability meta tags, and add websocket lifecycle coverage for the StrictMode-safe live updates fix.
Co-Authored-By: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
- 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
Co-Authored-By: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
When running behind a reverse proxy (e.g. Caddy), the live-events
WebSocket would fail to connect because it constructed the URL from
window.location without accounting for proxy routing.
Also fixes React StrictMode double-invoke of WebSocket connections
by deferring the connect call via a cleanup guard.
- Replace deprecated apple-mobile-web-app-capable meta tag
- Guard WS connect with mounted flag to prevent StrictMode double-open
- Use protocol-relative WebSocket URL derivation for proxy compatibility
merge Usage page into Costs as two tabs ('Spend' and 'Providers'),
extract shared date-range logic to useDateRange() hook, delete /usage
route and sidebar entry, fix quota-windows bugs from prior review
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
Replace the direct agent config dialog with a choice modal offering two
paths: "Ask the CEO to create a new agent" (opens pre-filled issue) or
"I want advanced configuration myself" (navigates to /agents/new).
- Extend NewIssueDefaults with title/description for pre-fill support
- Add /agents/new route with full-page agent configuration form
- NewAgentDialog now shows CEO recommendation modal
