Clarify sandbox provider messaging in company environments (#4902)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - Company Environments is the operator-facing seam for choosing where
compatible adapters execute work.
> - Sandbox provider plugins such as E2B extend that seam, but they are
not agent adapters themselves.
> - The current Company Environments copy put adapter capability rows
and sandbox-provider enablement on the same page without clearly
distinguishing the two concepts.
> - That made it look like installing the E2B sandbox provider caused a
new adapter to appear under adapters.
> - This pull request clarifies the UI language so provider plugins are
described as backing the Sandbox driver rather than being adapter types.
> - The benefit is a more accurate mental model for operators
configuring environments and adapters.

## What Changed

- Added explicit Company Environments copy stating that installed
sandbox providers are not adapter types and instead back the Sandbox
driver for compatible adapters.
- Renamed the support-matrix column from `Sandbox` to `Sandbox via
plugin` to make the provider relationship visible in the table itself.
- Extended the existing environments UI test to assert the new
clarification text.

## Verification

- `pnpm test -- --run ui/src/pages/CompanySettings.test.tsx`
Result: could not complete cleanly in this worktree because the checkout
is missing its local workspace install links.
- Direct Vitest fallback against `ui/src/pages/CompanySettings.test.tsx`
Result: failed before test collection on local dependency resolution
(`react/jsx-dev-runtime`), so there is no passing automated signal from
this checkout.
- Manual review
Confirm the Company Environments page now says sandbox providers are not
adapter types and labels the table column as `Sandbox via plugin`.

## Risks

- Low risk. This is a copy-only UI clarification plus a matching test
assertion; the main risk is wording drift if the product later decides
sandbox providers should be surfaced differently.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex via the local `codex_local` Paperclip adapter. This run
used tool-assisted code editing and shell execution. The exact backend
model ID and context window are not exposed in the Paperclip run context
for this session.

Add dedicated environment settings page and test-in-environment (#4798)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents run inside environments (local, SSH, E2B sandbox)
> - Operators need to configure and manage these environments
> - But environment settings were buried inside the general company
settings page, making them hard to find
> - Additionally, when testing an agent from the configuration form, the
test always ran locally regardless of which environment was selected
> - This PR moves environments into a dedicated top-level company
settings section and wires the "Test Environment" button to run inside
the selected environment
> - The benefit is operators can find and manage environments more
easily, and the test button now validates the actual environment the
agent will use

## What Changed

- Added a dedicated `CompanyEnvironments` settings page with its own
route and sidebar entry
- Updated `CompanySettingsSidebar` and `CompanySettingsNav` to include
the new environments section
- Modified the agent test route (`POST /agents/:id/test`) to accept an
optional `environmentId` parameter
- Updated all adapter `test.ts` handlers to resolve and use the
specified execution target environment
- Added `resolveTestExecutionTarget` to `execution-target.ts` for remote
environment test resolution with cwd fallback
- Moved the "Test Environment" button and its feedback display into the
`NewAgent` page footer for better UX flow

## Verification

- `pnpm test` — all existing and new tests pass
- `pnpm typecheck` — clean
- Manual: navigate to Company Settings, confirm "Environments" appears
as a top-level section
- Manual: configure an agent with a non-local environment, click "Test
Environment", confirm the test runs inside that environment

## Risks

- Low risk. UI-only routing change for the settings page. The
test-in-environment change adds an optional parameter with a local
fallback, so existing behavior is preserved when no environment is
specified.

## Model Used

Codex GPT 5.4 high via Paperclip.

Generalize sandbox provider core for plugin-only providers (#4449)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is a control plane, so optional execution providers should
sit at the plugin edge instead of hardcoding provider-specific behavior
into core shared/server/ui layers.
> - Sandbox environments are already first-class, and the fake provider
proves the built-in path; the remaining gap was that real providers
still leaked provider-specific config and runtime assumptions into core.
> - That coupling showed up in config normalization, secret persistence,
capabilities reporting, lease reconstruction, and the board UI form
fields.
> - As long as core knew about those provider-shaped details, shipping a
provider as a pure third-party plugin meant every new provider would
still require host changes.
> - This pull request generalizes the sandbox provider seam around
schema-driven plugin metadata and generic secret-ref handling.
> - The runtime and UI now consume provider metadata generically, so
core only special-cases the built-in fake provider while third-party
providers can live entirely in plugins.

## What Changed

- Added generic sandbox-provider capability metadata so plugin-backed
providers can expose `configSchema` through shared environment support
and the environments capabilities API.
- Reworked sandbox config normalization/persistence/runtime resolution
to handle schema-declared secret-ref fields generically, storing them as
Paperclip secrets and resolving them for probe/execute/release flows.
- Generalized plugin sandbox runtime handling so provider validation,
reusable-lease matching, lease reconstruction, and plugin worker calls
all operate on provider-agnostic config instead of provider-shaped
branches.
- Replaced hardcoded sandbox provider form fields in Company Settings
with schema-driven rendering and blocked agent environment selection
from the built-in fake provider.
- Added regression coverage for the generic seam across shared support
helpers plus environment config, probe, routes, runtime, and
sandbox-provider runtime tests.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest --run packages/shared/src/environment-support.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-config.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-probe.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/environment-runtime.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/sandbox-provider-runtime.test.ts`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`

## Risks

- Plugin sandbox providers now depend more heavily on accurate
`configSchema` declarations; incorrect schemas can misclassify
secret-bearing fields or omit required config.
- Reusable lease matching is now metadata-driven for plugin-backed
providers, so providers that fail to persist stable metadata may
reprovision instead of resuming an existing lease.
- The UI form is now fully schema-driven for plugin-backed sandbox
providers; provider manifests without good defaults or descriptions may
produce a rougher operator experience.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex via `codex_local`
- Model ID: `gpt-5.4`
- Reasoning effort: `high`
- Context window observed in runtime session metadata: `258400` tokens
- Capabilities used: terminal tool execution, git, and local code/test
inspection

Add sandbox environment support (#4415)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - The environment/runtime layer decides where agent work executes and
how the control plane reaches those runtimes.
> - Today Paperclip can run locally and over SSH, but sandboxed
execution needs a first-class environment model instead of one-off
adapter behavior.
> - We also want sandbox providers to be pluggable so the core does not
hardcode every provider implementation.
> - This branch adds the Sandbox environment path, the provider
contract, and a deterministic fake provider plugin.
> - That required synchronized changes across shared contracts, plugin
SDK surfaces, server runtime orchestration, and the UI
environment/workspace flows.
> - The result is that sandbox execution becomes a core control-plane
capability while keeping provider implementations extensible and
testable.

## What Changed

- Added sandbox runtime support to the environment execution path,
including runtime URL discovery, sandbox execution targeting,
orchestration, and heartbeat integration.
- Added plugin-provider support for sandbox environments so providers
can be supplied via plugins instead of hardcoded server logic.
- Added the fake sandbox provider plugin with deterministic behavior
suitable for local and automated testing.
- Updated shared types, validators, plugin protocol definitions, and SDK
helpers to carry sandbox provider and workspace-runtime contracts across
package boundaries.
- Updated server routes and services so companies can create sandbox
environments, select them for work, and execute work through the sandbox
runtime path.
- Updated the UI environment and workspace surfaces to expose sandbox
environment configuration and selection.
- Added test coverage for sandbox runtime behavior, provider seams,
environment route guards, orchestration, and the fake provider plugin.

## Verification

- Ran locally before the final fixture-only scrub:
  - `pnpm -r typecheck`
  - `pnpm test:run`
  - `pnpm build`
- Ran locally after the final scrub amend:
  - `pnpm vitest run server/src/__tests__/runtime-api.test.ts`
- Reviewer spot checks:
  - create a sandbox environment backed by the fake provider plugin
  - run work through that environment
- confirm sandbox provider execution does not inherit host secrets
implicitly

## Risks

- This touches shared contracts, plugin SDK plumbing, server runtime
orchestration, and UI environment/workspace flows, so regressions would
likely show up as cross-layer mismatches rather than isolated type
errors.
- Runtime URL discovery and sandbox callback selection are sensitive to
host/bind configuration; if that logic is wrong, sandbox-backed
callbacks may fail even when execution succeeds.
- The fake provider plugin is intentionally deterministic and
test-oriented; future providers may expose capability gaps that this
branch does not yet cover.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex coding agent on a GPT-5-class backend in the
Paperclip/Codex harness. Exact backend model ID is not exposed
in-session. Tool-assisted workflow with shell execution, file editing,
git history inspection, and local test execution.
