## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The board depends on issue, inbox, cost, and company-skill surfaces
to stay accurate and fast while agents are actively working
> - The PAP-1497 follow-up branch exposed a few rough edges in those
surfaces: stale active-run state on completed issues, missing creator
filters, oversized issue payload scans, and placeholder issue-route
parsing
> - Those gaps make the control plane harder to trust because operators
can see misleading run state, miss the right subset of work, or pay
extra query/render cost on large issue records
> - This pull request tightens those follow-ups across server and UI
code, and adds regression coverage for the affected paths
> - The benefit is a more reliable issue workflow, safer high-volume
cost aggregation, and clearer board/operator navigation
## What Changed
- Added the `v2026.415.0` release changelog entry.
- Fixed stale issue-run presentation after completion and reused the
shared issue-path parser so literal route placeholders no longer become
issue links.
- Added creator filters to the Issues page and Inbox, including
persisted filter-state normalization and regression coverage.
- Bounded issue detail/list project-mention scans and trimmed large
issue-list payload fields to keep issue reads lighter.
- Hardened company-skill list projection and cost/finance aggregation so
large markdown blobs and large summed values do not leak into list
responses or overflow 32-bit casts.
- Added targeted server/UI regression tests for company skills,
costs/finance, issue mention scanning, creator filters, inbox
normalization, and issue reference parsing.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/company-skills-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/costs-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issues-goal-context-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issues-service.test.ts ui/src/lib/inbox.test.ts
ui/src/lib/issue-filters.test.ts ui/src/lib/issue-reference.test.ts`
- `gh pr checks 3779`
Current pass set on the PR head: `policy`, `verify`, `e2e`,
`security/snyk (cryppadotta)`, `Greptile Review`
## Risks
- Creator filter options are derived from the currently loaded
issue/agent data, so very sparse result sets may not surface every
historical creator until they appear in the active dataset.
- Cost/finance aggregate casts now use `double precision`; that removes
the current overflow risk, but future schema changes should keep
large-value aggregation behavior under review.
- Issue detail mention scanning now skips comment-body scans on the
detail route, so any consumer that relied on comment-only project
mentions there would need to fetch them separately.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent with terminal tool use and
local code execution in the Paperclip workspace. Exact internal model
ID/context-window exposure is not surfaced in this session.

## 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
> - 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

Adds a ListTree icon button in the inbox top bar to toggle nesting
on/off. Preference is persisted in localStorage. When disabled, all
issues display as a flat list without grouping.
Co-Authored-By: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
Groups child issues under their parent in the inbox, matching the
nesting pattern used on the issues list page. Parent groups sort by
the most recent activity across all family members. Archived parents
don't hide their children — orphans show independently.

Adds a "parent" column option to the inbox column toggle dropdown.
When enabled, sub-issues display the parent's identifier (e.g. PAP-123)
with the parent title as a tooltip. Uses the existing issueById lookup
map to resolve parent info without additional API calls.

The sidebar inbox badge was counting all "mine" issues (issues created
by or assigned to the user) instead of only unread ones. This caused
the badge to show a count (e.g. 14) even when the Unread tab was empty.

issueLastActivityTimestamp() returned 0 for issues where the user was
the last to touch them (myLastTouchAt >= updatedAt) and no external
comment existed. This pushed those items to the bottom of the inbox
list regardless of how recently they were updated.
Now falls back to updatedAt instead, so recently updated items sort
to the top of the Recent tab as expected.

Approvals, failed runs, and join requests now have the same
unread dot + archive X pattern as issues in the Mine tab:
- Click the blue dot to mark as read, then X appears on hover
- Desktop: animated dismiss with scale/slide transition
- Mobile: swipe-to-archive via SwipeToArchive wrapper
- Dismissed items are filtered out of Mine tab
- Badge count excludes dismissed approvals and join requests
- localStorage-backed read/dismiss state for non-issue items
Co-Authored-By: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
Join requests were displayed in a separate card-style section below the main
inbox list. This moves them into the unified work items feed so they sort
chronologically alongside issues, approvals, and failed runs—matching the
inline treatment hiring requests already receive.

Failed runs are no longer shown in a separate section. They are now
mixed into the main work items feed sorted by timestamp, matching
how approvals are already interleaved with issues.
Replaced the large FailedRunCard with a compact FailedRunInboxRow
that matches the ApprovalInboxRow visual style.
