## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - That operator experience depends not just on issue chat, but also on
how workspaces, inbox groups, and navigation state behave over
long-running sessions
> - The current branch included a separate cluster of workspace-runtime
controls, inbox grouping, sidebar ordering, and worktree lifecycle fixes
> - Those changes cross server, shared contracts, database state, and UI
navigation, but they still form one coherent operator workflow area
> - This pull request isolates the workspace/runtime and navigation
ergonomics work into one standalone branch
> - The benefit is better workspace recovery and navigation persistence
without forcing reviewers through the unrelated issue-detail/chat work
## What Changed
- Improved execution workspace and project workspace controls, request
wiring, layout, and JSON editor ergonomics
- Hardened linked worktree reuse/startup behavior and documented the
`worktree repair` flow for recovering linked worktrees safely
- Added inbox workspace grouping, mobile collapse, archive undo,
keyboard navigation, shared group-header styling, and persisted
collapsed-group behavior
- Added persistent sidebar order preferences with the supporting DB
migration, shared/server contracts, routes, services, hooks, and UI
integration
- Scoped issue-list preferences by context and added targeted UI/server
tests for workspace controls, inbox behavior, sidebar preferences, and
worktree validation
## Verification
- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/sidebar-preferences-routes.test.ts
ui/src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx
ui/src/components/ProjectWorkspaceSummaryCard.test.tsx
ui/src/components/WorkspaceRuntimeControls.test.tsx
ui/src/api/workspace-runtime-control.test.ts`
- `server/src/__tests__/workspace-runtime.test.ts` was attempted, but
the embedded Postgres suite self-skipped/hung on this host after
reporting an init-script issue, so it is not counted as a local pass
here
## Risks
- Medium: this branch includes migration-backed preference storage plus
worktree/runtime behavior, so merge review should pay attention to state
persistence and worktree recovery semantics
- The sidebar preference migration is standalone, but it should still be
watched for conflicts if another migration lands first
## 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

- Plugin loader: install/reload/remove/reinstall external adapters
from npm packages or local directories
- Plugin store persisted at ~/.paperclip/adapter-plugins.json
- Self-healing UI parser resolution with version caching
- UI: Adapter Manager page, dynamic loader, display registry
with humanized names for unknown adapter types
- Dev watch: exclude adapter-plugins dir from tsx watcher
to prevent mid-request server restarts during reinstall
- All consumer fallbacks use getAdapterLabel() for consistent display
- AdapterTypeDropdown uses controlled open state for proper close behavior
- Remove hermes-local from built-in UI (externalized to plugin)
- Add docs for external adapters and UI parser contract
Introduce a singleton instance_settings store and experimental settings API, add the Experimental instance settings page, and gate execution workspace behavior behind the new enableIsolatedWorkspaces flag.

The export page now syncs the selected file with the URL path, e.g.
/PAP/company/export/files/agents/cmo/AGENTS.md. Navigating to such a
URL directly selects and reveals the file in the tree. Browser
back/forward navigation is supported without page refreshes.

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
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
- Add /:company/company/export page with file tree, checkboxes for
per-file selection, and read-only preview pane (skills-style layout)
- Add /:company/company/import page with source form (GitHub/URL/local),
target/collision settings, preview tree with action badges, and detail pane
- Add Import/Export buttons to the Org Chart page header
- Replace import/export sections in CompanySettings with redirect links
- Clean up ~800 lines of dead code from CompanySettings
- Register new routes in App.tsx

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

When a company has no agents (e.g. user exited onboarding early), the
dashboard now shows an amber banner: "You have no agents. Create one
here" that opens the onboarding wizard directly at step 2 (agent
creation), skipping the company creation step.

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.

Change relative Navigate paths to absolute (e.g. "agents/all" to
"/agents/all") to prevent broken redirects when routes are nested.
