## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - This branch accumulated multiple already-tested control-plane,
adapter runtime, invite, workspace, plugin, and UI quality fixes on the
primary Paperclip checkout.
> - `origin/master` advanced while those commits were still local, so
the branch needed to be preserved and reconciled before review.
> - Splitting the branch commit-by-commit against the new base produced
overlapping conflicts with recently merged upstream PRs.
> - This pull request keeps the remaining branch as one standalone PR
because the final diff is 38 files after removing screenshot artifacts,
under Greptile's 100-file cap, and can be merged independently after
review.
> - The benefit is that none of the local work is lost, the branch is
now based on current `origin/master`, and reviewers can evaluate the
reconciled changes in one place.
## What Changed
- Merged the local accumulated branch with current `origin/master` and
resolved the invite-flow overlaps from the newer upstream companies
query helper.
- Preserved the local fixes for invite existing-member behavior, invite
link copy fallback, reusable workspace selection, worktree auth, static
SPA fallback, markdown wrapping, plugin slot registration, cloud
upstream UX/server polish, project sorting, and related tests.
- Removed screenshot artifacts from the PR per review request.
- Kept the PR under the requested file limit: 38 files changed, with no
`pnpm-lock.yaml` or `.github/workflows/*` changes.
## Verification
- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm exec vitest run
ui/src/pages/CompanyInvites.test.tsx ui/src/pages/InviteLanding.test.tsx
ui/src/pages/Projects.test.tsx ui/src/plugins/slots.test.ts
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx

server/src/__tests__/execution-workspaces-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/better-auth.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/worktree-config.test.ts`
- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- Confirmed `git diff --name-only origin/master...HEAD | wc -l` is `38`.
- Confirmed no PR diff entries match `pnpm-lock.yaml`,
`.github/workflows/*`, or `screenshots/*`.
## Risks
- Medium review risk because this is a bundled rescue PR rather than
several narrow feature PRs.
- Invite flow and company cache behavior overlapped with newer upstream
changes; the merge resolution intentionally keeps the shared
`companiesListQueryOptions` helper while preserving local
existing-member invite behavior.
- Visual review evidence is no longer attached in-repo because
screenshots were removed from this PR per review request.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the board UI and control plane for supervising AI-agent
companies.
> - Operators repeatedly use mobile navigation, issue creation, inbox
scanning, and markdown reading surfaces.
> - Small layout and interaction rough edges add friction to those
high-frequency workflows.
> - The branch included a set of related board UI polish changes that
were too small to review as many separate PRs.
> - This pull request groups the remaining mobile/navigation/markdown
polish into one standalone branch.
> - The benefit is smoother board operation without mixing in unrelated
backend feature work.
## What Changed
- Tightened company settings navigation behavior on mobile.
- Fixed mobile new issue dialog height and moved issue priority into the
overflow controls on small screens.
- Restored browser controls for home-screen app mode.
- Fixed plugin-route sidebar selection on nested page loads.
- Added markdown preformatted-block wrapping controls and coverage.
- Kept updated issue list pages sorted by updated time in the board UI.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk build`
- `NODE_ENV=test pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/Layout.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.wrap.test.tsx
ui/src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx
ui/src/components/access/CompanySettingsNav.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/pwa-install-mode.test.ts ui/src/pages/Inbox.test.tsx`
The targeted UI tests passed. React emitted existing act-wrapping
warnings in a few test files, but there were no test failures.
## Risks
- Medium-low: changes span several UI surfaces, but they are mostly
layout/interaction polish with targeted component tests.
- Visual screenshots are not newly captured in this split PR; follow-up
review should include browser/visual QA before marking ready.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - Human operators create and edit issues through modal-heavy board UI
workflows.
> - The new-issue dialog embeds markdown editors that render
autocomplete menus through body-level portals.
> - Radix Dialog treats those portal clicks as outside-dialog pointer
events and prevents their default behavior.
> - That prevention made completion items hard or impossible to select
from inside the new-issue dialog.
> - This pull request marks the markdown editor floating autocomplete
menu as allowed dialog-external UI and extends the dialog
outside-pointer handler to preserve those interactions.
> - The benefit is that users can click/tap autocomplete completions
while keeping the existing modal behavior intact.
## What Changed
- Added a stable `data-paperclip-floating-ui` marker and explicit
pointer event handling to the markdown editor mention/autocomplete
portal.
- Updated the new issue dialog outside-pointer guard so editor
autocomplete portals are handled like Radix popover portals.
- Added regression coverage for markdown editor portal markup and new
issue dialog completion selection behavior.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/MarkdownEditor.test.tsx
ui/src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx` passed: 2 files, 38 tests.
- Confirmed the branch is rebased onto current `public-gh/master` before
opening this PR.
- Confirmed the diff does not include `pnpm-lock.yaml` or
`.github/workflows` changes.
## Risks
- Low risk. The change is scoped to allowing pointer events from known
body-level UI portals while keeping other outside-dialog pointer events
under Radix Dialog control.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for autonomous companies.
> - Agents and board operators coordinate through company-scoped issues,
comments, documents, and heartbeat wake payloads.
> - Chinese, Japanese, and Hindi text needs to survive the full issue
lifecycle without normalization or prompt serialization damage.
> - The riskiest paths are board issue creation, server
issue/comment/document round-tripping, and scoped wake prompt rendering.
> - This pull request adds focused regression coverage across those
surfaces.
> - The benefit is higher confidence that multilingual operators and
agents can create, search, comment on, complete, and wake on issues
using non-Latin text.
## What Changed
- Added adapter-utils wake payload and prompt rendering coverage for
Chinese, Japanese, and Hindi issue/comment text.
- Added UI New Issue dialog coverage proving multilingual title and
description text is submitted unchanged.
- Added server route coverage that round-trips multilingual issue text
through create, search, comments, documents, completion comments, and
heartbeat context.
- Addressed Greptile feedback by using a typed storage mock and
splitting the server route integration path into smaller ordered
assertions.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts
ui/src/components/NewIssueDialog.test.tsx
server/src/__tests__/multilingual-issues-routes.test.ts`
- Result: 3 test files passed, 51 tests passed.
## Risks
- Low risk: this PR adds regression coverage only and does not change
runtime behavior.
- The new server test uses embedded Postgres support and skips on
unsupported hosts using the existing helper pattern.
- No migrations are included.
- No `pnpm-lock.yaml` changes are included.

## 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

## Screenshots

## 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.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## 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 coordinates work through issue-thread interactions, run
history, and cost telemetry.
> - Operators need workflow prompts to be cancellable and costs to be
visible at the issue level.
> - The earlier rollup mixed this workflow/cost work with database
backups, reliability recovery, thread scaling, and settings polish.
> - This pull request isolates the interaction and cost surfaces into a
reviewable slice.
> - The backend now supports cancelling pending question interactions
and summarizing issue-tree costs.
> - The UI component layer can render cancelled questions and interleave
activity with run ledger rows.
## What Changed
- Added `cancelled` as an issue-thread interaction status and result
shape for question interactions.
- Added the board-only `POST
/issues/:id/interactions/:interactionId/cancel` route and service
implementation.
- Added issue-tree cost summary support in the cost service and
`/issues/:id/cost-summary` API route.
- Extended shared cost exports and UI API/query keys for issue cost
summaries.
- Updated `IssueThreadInteractionCard` and `IssueRunLedger` components
for cancelled questions, issue cost surfaces, and activity/run
interleaving.
- Added focused server and component regression coverage.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/costs-service.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interaction-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-thread-interactions-service.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueRunLedger.test.tsx`
- Result: 4 test files passed, 45 tests passed.
- UI screenshots not included because this PR updates reusable
components and API surfaces without wiring a new page-level layout.
## Risks
- Adds a new interaction terminal status; clients that switch
exhaustively on interaction status may need to handle `cancelled`.
- Issue-tree cost summaries use recursive issue traversal and should be
watched on unusually large issue trees.
- Page-level issue detail wiring is intentionally left to the board
QoL/issue-detail branch to keep this PR narrow.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip's board UI is the operator surface for supervising
AI-agent companies.
> - Issue threads are where operators read progress, respond to agents,
inspect markdown, and jump through long histories.
> - Large threads and rich markdown had become difficult to navigate and
expensive to render.
> - The previous rollup mixed these UI scale fixes with unrelated
backend recovery, costs, backups, and settings changes.
> - This pull request isolates the issue-thread scale and markdown
polish work.
> - The benefit is a reviewable UI slice that can merge independently of
the backend reliability, database backup, workflow, and board QoL PRs.
## What Changed
- Virtualized long issue chat threads and stabilized
anchor/jump-to-latest behavior for large histories.
- Added incremental issue-list row loading and tests for
scroll-triggered pagination behavior.
- Hardened markdown body rendering and markdown editor behavior around
HTML tags, image drops, code-copy UI, and escaped newline handling.
- Added a long-thread measurement harness at
`scripts/measure-issue-chat-long-thread.mjs` plus
`perf:issue-chat-long-thread`.
- Added focused UI/lib regression coverage for thread rendering,
markdown, optimistic comments, and message building.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssuesList.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownEditor.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/issue-chat-messages.test.ts
ui/src/lib/optimistic-issue-comments.test.ts`
- Result: 6 test files passed, 170 tests passed.
- UI screenshots not included because this PR is covered by targeted
component tests and does not introduce a new page layout.
## Risks
- Virtualization changes can affect scroll anchoring in edge cases on
very long threads.
- Markdown/editor hardening changes are intentionally defensive, but
malformed content may render differently than before.

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 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

- `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-chat-scroll.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
