feat(ui): NUX rework behind enableConferenceRoomChat experimental flag — capsule onboarding, conference-room chat, unified composer (#8000)
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The first-run experience (onboarding wizard) and the chat surfaces
(conference-room/board chat, task threads, composers) are the product's
front door — they decide whether a new operator understands "hire
agents, give them work, review results" in the first five minutes
> - Today those surfaces feel ticket-y and form-like: the wizard is a
static multi-step form that ends in an anticlimactic "Launch" screen,
the task composer and board chat behave differently from each other, and
agent-feed issue quicklooks misbehave (multiple flyouts open at once,
cards jump on hover)
> - We wanted to iterate toward a conversational, team-centric NUX — but
without risking the workflows of everyone already running Paperclip
> - This PR reworks the NUX behind a new default-OFF
`enableConferenceRoomChat` experimental flag: a capsule-motif onboarding
wizard that builds your team as you answer, a conference-room chat
surface, one shared ChatComposer across surfaces, brand-accurate status
chips, and feed-quicklook fixes — with the pre-existing UI
fork-and-frozen as `*Classic` components that flag-OFF users keep
> - The benefit is a complete, testable modern NUX that anyone can opt
into from Settings → Experimental, with zero default behavior change and
a clean path to either graduate or drop the experiment
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No pre-existing GitHub issue — feature description per
`feature_request.yml`:
- **Problem / motivation:** Paperclip's onboarding wizard and chat
surfaces grew up as separate ticket-centric forms. New users get a
form-filling experience rather than the feeling of standing up a team;
the board chat and task threads use different composers with different
affordances; the agent feed's issue quicklook can stack multiple
popovers and shifts cards on hover.
- **Proposed solution:** A coherent NUX experiment behind one
experimental flag (`enableConferenceRoomChat`, Settings → Experimental,
default OFF): capsule onboarding wizard with an evolving team capsule,
conference-room chat, unified `ChatComposer`, team-centric copy, brand
status chips, quicklook single-flight fix. Flag-OFF users get the exact
pre-experiment UI via frozen `*Classic` forks, verified by an on/off
parity test matrix.
- **Alternatives considered:** (a) incremental unflagged restyling —
rejected: the changes interlock across surfaces and would drip risk into
every release; (b) a separate app shell / route for the new NUX —
rejected: too much divergence, the flag + classic-fork pattern keeps the
diff reviewable and reversible.
- **Roadmap alignment:** `ROADMAP.md` lists **CEO Chat** ("a
lighter-weight way to talk to leadership agents... should still resolve
to real work objects"). This experiment is groundwork in that direction
(conference-room chat resolves to issues/tasks via the same composer
used in task threads) and does not change the core task-and-comments
model.
Related PRs found in the dedup search (same area, none duplicate this
work — they target the classic wizard, which this PR intentionally
leaves intact and mergeable):
- #5385 — Coach-driven onboarding: conversational entry +
agent-companies package import
- #5378 — Onboarding wizard: reusable adapter picker + probe card
- #6636 — ui(onboarding): friendly error surface + retry for the wizard
- #7005 — fix(onboarding): explicitly await first-task wake
- #2616 — fix: restore workspace directory config in onboarding wizard
## What Changed
- **Experimental flag plumbing** — `enableConferenceRoomChat` in shared
types/validators, server instance-settings service + API, Settings →
Experimental card with explicit enable/disable copy
- **Onboarding wizard** — classic wizard forked and frozen
(`OnboardingWizardClassic`); flag-ON variant is a 5-step capsule wizard
with a persistent evolving `AgentCapsule` (gradient/glow motif),
team-centric reframed copy, and a typing-dots intro (hardened with
fake-timer tests)
- **Conference-room chat** — flag-ON board-chat surface with agent
bubble name/icon headers and copy/vote/timestamp action rows
(`AgentBubbleActionRow`)
- **Unified composer** — shared `ChatComposer` adopted across surfaces;
translucent surface + scroll-mask removal; "Agent mode"/"Plan mode"
relabels; no-assignee confirmation `AlertDialog` (new
`ui/alert-dialog.tsx` primitive); `@task` reference picker +
linkification in mentions
- **Agent feed** — single-flight issue-quicklook store (one popover at a
time), flyouts open to the left, removed hover translate-y jitter
- **Status chips** — brand-accurate task status chips behind the flag
(light/dark, 1px borders per paperclip.ing/brand)
- **Tests** — flag on/off parity matrix across IssueDetail,
NewIssueDialog, Sidebar, wizard, gate components; component tests for
all new pieces
- **Merge with `master`** — one conflict in
`ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.tsx`, resolved by keeping master's
new `AssigneeChip`/`HandoffWakeRow`/`RunStatusBadge` components inside
the flag-gated metadata-row chrome (details in commit `21a5642a`);
post-merge fixes: vitest 4 mock typing in `MarkdownEditor.test.tsx`,
flag hook made safe for provider-less mounts (master's new isolated
component tests)
- **Branch hygiene** — internal design wireframes/mockups stripped
before the PR (they live in the Paperclip issue threads)
- No user-facing documentation changes required: the flag is
intentionally experimental and self-described in the Settings card; no
existing docs reference the affected surfaces
## Verification
- `pnpm run typecheck` — green across the workspace (ui, server, shared,
plugins)
- Full UI suite (`vitest run` in `ui/`, clean worktree at this HEAD):
**1593/1595 passing, 223/224 files** — the 2 remaining failures are in
`src/components/artifacts/ArtifactCard.test.tsx` and **fail identically
on pristine `origin/master`** (pre-existing upstream, unrelated to this
branch)
- Full server suite (`vitest run` in `server/`, same clean worktree):
results in PR checks; flag plumbing covered by instance-settings tests
- Targeted post-merge resolution check: `IssueChatThread`,
`IssueChatThreadSystemNotice`, `IssueDetail`, `Sidebar`,
`ConferenceRoomChatGate`, `OnboardingWizardVariant`, `NewIssueDialog`,
`InstanceExperimentalSettings`, `MarkdownEditor` — 172/172 passing
- Manual walkthrough: flag OFF (default) → onboarding wizard, task
thread, board chat, composer all render the classic UI; flag ON via
Settings → Experimental → capsule wizard, conference-room chat, unified
composer, status chips active
- Screenshots: see below
**Flag on/off screenshots** (committed on this branch under
`screenshots/PR-8000-*`):
| Surface | Flag OFF (classic, default) | Flag ON (experimental) |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Settings → Experimental | 
| 
|
| Task thread | 
| 
|
| Home / nav | 
| 
|
| Conference Room (flag-ON only surface) | — | 
|
Capsule onboarding wizard walkthrough screenshots (flag ON) are attached
to the Paperclip design/implementation threads; the wizard requires a
fresh instance so it is captured via the e2e harness
(`tests/e2e/nux-phase4-screenshots.spec.ts`).
## Risks
- **Large surface, but gated:** all new behavior sits behind
`enableConferenceRoomChat`, default OFF; flag-OFF rendering is locked by
frozen `*Classic` forks plus an on/off parity test suite
- **Classic forks are frozen at the fork point (`e3aada1d`):** master
features added to the live thread component after that point (assignee
handoff chips, run status badge, composer mention coach) render in the
flag-ON path; the flag-OFF task thread keeps the fork-point behavior
until the experiment graduates (forks deleted) or is dropped (forks
restored as canonical). Called out for reviewer attention.
- **Merge-conflict resolution in `IssueChatThread.tsx`** (commit
`21a5642a`) deserves reviewer eyes: master's new handoff/run-status
components were kept; the base toast-style no-assignee flow remains
replaced by the AlertDialog flow introduced on this branch
- Schema/server changes are additive (one optional boolean instance
setting); no migrations of existing data
## Model Used
- Claude (Anthropic) via Claude Code running in the Paperclip agent
harness (agent: ClaudeCoder)
- Branch implemented across multiple agent sessions on Claude Opus-class
models with extended thinking + tool use (file edits, shell, Playwright
screenshots); merge/PR session model ID as reported by the harness:
`claude-fable-5` (Claude Code CLI)
- All code was agent-authored and board-reviewed through Paperclip issue
threads (plans, wireframes, confirmations) before merging

feat(server): kubernetes execution integration for sandbox-provider plugins (stage 2/3) (#7938)
## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work > - The execution subsystem runs those agents in environments (local, ssh, sandbox), and sandbox-provider plugins let an environment materialize per-run sandboxes > - Stage 1 (#5790) contributed a first-party Kubernetes sandbox-provider plugin, but the server core has no way to adopt it operationally: no per-run adapter selection, no way to force an instance onto sandboxed execution, no declarative adapter/model configuration, and the plugin must be installed by hand > - Without this, a multi-tenant or security-conscious deployment cannot guarantee that agent runs never execute on the host, and a single environment cannot serve agents with different harnesses > - This pull request adds the server + SDK integration: per-run adapterType on the lease protocol, an env-gated forced-Kubernetes execution policy with provisioning and a per-run allowlist guard, a declarative adapter registry and model list, in-cluster env passthrough for sandbox plugin workers, fail-safe auto-install of the bundled plugin, and the matching UI affordance > - The benefit is that sandbox-provider plugins become fully usable for Kubernetes execution: operators configure everything via environment variables and GitOps, while self-hosters who set none of the variables see exactly the behavior they have today ## Linked Issues or Issue Description Refs #5790 (stage 1 of 3: the Kubernetes sandbox-provider plugin package). No existing issue. Feature description: the server core lacks the integration seams to operate a sandbox-provider plugin as the mandatory execution path of an instance. This PR is stage 2 of 3 of the staged Kubernetes contribution; stage 3 will contribute the agent runtime images and their build pipeline. ## What Changed One line per piece: - `packages/plugins/sdk/protocol.ts`: optional `adapterType` on `PluginEnvironmentAcquireLeaseParams` so a provider can select the runtime image per run; existing providers simply ignore it - `server/services/environment-runtime.ts` + `environment-run-orchestrator.ts`: thread the agent's adapter type into both lease-acquiring drivers, including the heartbeat path (the two call sites have historically drifted, hence the pinned test) - `server/services/environments.ts`: `ensureKubernetesEnvironment` / `findKubernetesEnvironment`, an idempotent managed Kubernetes environment per company, identified by a metadata marker and refreshed (not recreated) on config change; `timeoutMs` rides on the config for slow cold-start leases - `server/services/execution-allowlist.ts`: pure (driver, provider, policy) -> allow/deny guard; `executionMode=kubernetes` only allows the kubernetes sandbox provider - `server/services/execution-policy-bootstrap.ts` + startup hook in `server/index.ts`: parse `PAPERCLIP_EXECUTION_MODE` / `PAPERCLIP_K8S_*`, persist `executionMode` into instance general settings, and provision the managed environment for every company; fails loud on misconfiguration - `server/services/heartbeat.ts`: when the policy forces Kubernetes, pin run selection to the managed environment (also overriding any persisted workspace environment id), refuse to fall back to local, and re-check the actually acquired environment against the allowlist as defense in depth - `server/services/adapter-registry-bootstrap.ts` + shared `AdapterRegistryEntry` type/validator: declarative `PAPERCLIP_ADAPTERS` registry (inline JSON or file) that reconciles adapter availability at startup and rides on the Kubernetes environment config - `server/services/adapter-models-env.ts` + `adapters/registry.ts`: `PAPERCLIP_ADAPTER_MODELS` lets an operator declare picker model lists the server cannot CLI-discover - `server/services/plugin-loader.ts`: pass `KUBERNETES_SERVICE_HOST/PORT(_HTTPS)` through to plugin workers that register environment drivers, so in-cluster API clients can be constructed; all other host env stays stripped - `server/app.ts`: fail-safe auto-install of the bundled kubernetes plugin at boot; no-ops when the bundle is absent and never blocks startup on error - `packages/shared` types/validators: `InstanceExecutionMode` on general settings (optional, strict schema) - `ui/lib/forced-kubernetes-environment.ts` + `AgentConfigForm`: when the policy is active, show a read-only Kubernetes environment instead of the environment picker and default new agents onto the managed environment - Tests for every new module plus the adapterType pin in `heartbeat-plugin-environment` and the managed-environment lifecycle in `environment-service` Everything is gated: with `PAPERCLIP_EXECUTION_MODE`, `PAPERCLIP_ADAPTERS`, and `PAPERCLIP_ADAPTER_MODELS` unset (and no bundled plugin present), every code path reduces to current behavior. The per-run `adapterType` is an optional SDK parameter that existing providers ignore. ## Verification - `cd server && npx tsc --noEmit`: clean (0 errors); `ui` typecheck also clean - Targeted suites all green (11 files, 90 tests): `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-plugin-environment.test.ts server/src/__tests__/environment-service.test.ts server/src/__tests__/environment-runtime.test.ts server/src/__tests__/environment-run-orchestrator.test.ts server/src/__tests__/plugin-database.test.ts server/src/services/execution-policy-bootstrap.test.ts server/src/services/execution-allowlist.test.ts server/src/services/adapter-registry-bootstrap.test.ts server/src/services/adapter-registry-bootstrap.reconcile.test.ts server/src/services/adapter-models-env.test.ts packages/shared/src/validators/adapter-registry.test.ts` - `npx vitest run ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.test.ts`: green (6 tests) - Full `npx vitest run server/src/__tests__`: 2323 passed, 1 skipped; the only failures (heartbeat-process-recovery pid-retry, workspace-runtime symbolic-ref/git tests) reproduce identically on pristine `master` in the same environment, so they are machine-environment issues unrelated to this change; `server-startup-feedback-export` needed its `services/index.js` mock extended with the new export and is green - This integration has been running in production on a hosted multi-tenant deployment, where it executes agent runs across five different harnesses through the stage 1 plugin ## Risks - Low for existing deployments: every behavior is env-gated and the defaults preserve current semantics; the auto-install block is wrapped fail-safe and skips silently when the plugin bundle is absent - `executionMode` is a new optional field on a strict zod schema; absent input normalizes exactly as before - The forced policy intentionally fails runs loudly (rather than falling back to local) when no managed Kubernetes environment exists; this only affects instances that explicitly set `PAPERCLIP_EXECUTION_MODE=kubernetes` ## Model Used Claude Opus 4.8 (claude-opus-4-8, 1M context), extended thinking, agentic tool use via Claude Code. ## UI screenshots The UI change is a new read-only "Execution" section in `AgentConfigForm`, shown only when the instance execution policy forces Kubernetes (`executionMode=kubernetes`); there is no "before" state for it (the section did not exist, and instances without the forced policy render the existing picker unchanged). Captured from the new Storybook stories added in this PR (`Product/Agent Management`): Managed Kubernetes environment present (read-only display, no local/SSH picker):  No managed environment available yet (warning notice, no silent local fallback):  ## Checklist - [x] I have included a thinking path that traces from project context to this change - [x] I have specified the model used (with version and capability details) - [x] I have checked ROADMAP.md and confirmed this PR does not duplicate planned core work - [x] I have searched GitHub for duplicate or related PRs and linked them above - [x] I have either (a) linked existing issues with `Fixes: #` / `Closes #` / `Refs #` OR (b) described the issue in-PR following the relevant issue template - [x] I have run tests locally and they pass - [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable - [x] If this change affects the UI, I have included before/after screenshots - [x] I have updated relevant documentation to reflect my changes - [x] I have considered and documented any risks above - [ ] All Paperclip CI gates are green - [ ] Greptile is 5/5 with no open P2s, recommendations, or follow-ups - [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before requesting merge 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

[codex] Add live-run stop finalization actions (#7679)
## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work. > - Operators supervise live agent runs from the issue detail chat surface. > - The existing run menu can pause/stop work, but operators sometimes need to stop the active run and immediately finalize the task outcome. > - Doing those as separate actions is slower and easier to leave half-finished. > - This pull request adds explicit live-run finalization actions to the issue chat run menu. > - The benefit is a clearer operator path for stopping a live run and marking the task done or cancelled in one ordered flow. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description No public GitHub issue exists for this internal Paperclip task. Internal task: PAP-10535. ## Subsystem affected ui/ — React + Vite board UI. ## Problem or motivation Operators can stop an active run from the issue detail chat, but finalizing the issue outcome requires a separate status action after the run is stopped. That extra step makes live-run finalization slower and easier to leave incomplete. ## Proposed solution Add explicit issue chat run-menu actions for `Stop and cancel` and `Stop and done`, where each action cancels the active heartbeat run before updating the issue status. ## Alternatives considered Keep the existing two-step flow of cancelling the run first and then changing issue status separately. That preserves current behavior but does not solve the operator workflow gap. ## Roadmap alignment This is a small targeted UI control-plane improvement for supervising live agent work. It does not duplicate a planned core roadmap item found in `ROADMAP.md`. This PR was split from the local `master` branch on June 7, 2026. It covers the UI-only live-run finalization action. I searched GitHub for duplicate/related PRs; the results were broader run-control PRs, not this exact issue-detail menu action. ## What Changed - Added optional `runFinalizationActions` support to `IssueChatThread` assistant message run menus. - Added `Stop and cancel` and `Stop and done` actions on the issue detail chat tab. - Each action cancels the active heartbeat run before updating the issue status. - Added focused UI coverage to assert cancellation happens before the status update. - Addressed Greptile feedback for partial-failure messaging and duplicate run-state invalidation. ## Verification - `git diff --check origin/master..HEAD` - `git diff --check` - `NODE_ENV=test pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/pages/IssueDetail.test.tsx` - Storybook screenshot capture for the live-run menu before and after the finalization actions. ## Screenshots Before: existing live-run menu only offered the normal stop action.  After: the live-run menu includes `Stop and cancel` and `Stop and done`.  ## Risks - Medium UI behavior risk: the new actions expose faster finalization controls from the live-run menu. They are gated through the existing issue detail management surface and still use the existing run cancel and issue update APIs. - Low migration risk: no schema, API contract, or dependency changes. > For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`. ## Model Used OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5, with shell, git, GitHub CLI, local test execution, and Playwright browser screenshot capture. Exact hosted model variant and context-window size were not exposed by the runtime. ## Checklist - [x] I have included a thinking path that traces from project context to this change - [x] I have specified the model used (with version and capability details) - [x] I have checked ROADMAP.md and confirmed this PR does not duplicate planned core work - [x] I have searched GitHub for duplicate or related PRs and linked them above - [x] I have either (a) linked existing issues with `Fixes: #` / `Closes #` / `Refs #` OR (b) described the issue in-PR following the relevant issue template - [x] I have run tests locally and they pass - [x] I have added or updated tests where applicable - [x] If this change affects the UI, I have included before/after screenshots - [x] I have updated relevant documentation to reflect my changes - [x] I have considered and documented any risks above - [x] All Paperclip CI gates are green - [x] Greptile is 5/5 with no open P2s, recommendations, or follow-ups - [x] I will address all Greptile and reviewer comments before requesting merge --------- Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing> |

[codex] Workspace diff polish (#6383)
## Thinking Path > - Paperclip gives operators a workspace diff plugin so they can inspect agent changes before review > - The diff view needs reliable base-ref defaults and controls that stay usable while scrolling large diffs > - The working branch mixed those plugin improvements with unrelated server and cloud work > - Keeping the workspace diff plugin changes isolated makes them easy to test and review > - This pull request polishes the workspace diff plugin controls, base-ref behavior, and sticky headers > - The benefit is a more predictable diff review surface for agent workspaces ## What Changed - Fixed workspace diff default base-ref resolution. - Improved split/unified and working-tree/against-ref pane controls. - Made workspace diff headers stay sticky while scrolling. - Added a review screenshot at `screenshots/PAP-9841-workspace-diff.png`. ## Verification - `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts` - `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-sdk build` - `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/plugin-workspace-diff exec vitest run tests/plugin.spec.ts` - Result: 9 tests passed. ## Risks - UI-only plugin branch with low data risk. - The default base-ref inference should be reviewed against unusual worktree/upstream combinations. > For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`. ## Model Used - OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent with local shell/git/tool use.
