Devin Foley a7b45938b7 Let sandbox providers declare shell defaults (#5114)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents execute in sandboxed remote environments served by pluggable
sandbox
>   providers (E2B today, more later)
> - Today every sandbox command runs under `sh -lc` regardless of what
the
>   provider's container actually ships
> - That misses bash-only shell init on E2B (which ships bash) and
prevents
> future providers from declaring a different default — there's no way
for a
>   provider to say "I have bash, use it"
> - This PR adds a `shellCommand` field to sandbox execution targets so
providers
> can declare their preferred shell ("bash" for E2B), threads it through
the
> sandbox-managed-runtime client, callback bridge, and execution-target
shell
>   helper, and validates the value at the lease-metadata boundary
> - The benefit is that sandbox commands run under the right shell on
the right
> provider, and adding new sandbox providers only needs to declare a
shell
>   preference

## What Changed

- Added `packages/adapter-utils/src/sandbox-shell.ts` exporting
`preferredShellForSandbox(shellCommand)` (returns `"bash"` if input is
`"bash"`,
  else `"sh"`)
- Added `shellCommand?: "bash" | "sh" | null` to
`AdapterSandboxExecutionTarget`
  and `CommandManagedRuntimeSpec`; threaded it through
`runAdapterExecutionTargetShellCommand`,
`prepareAdapterExecutionTargetRuntime`,
  and `startAdapterExecutionTargetPaperclipBridge`
- `createCommandManagedRuntimeClient`, `prepareCommandManagedRuntime`,
and
`createCommandManagedSandboxCallbackBridgeQueueClient` now take an
optional
  `shellCommand` and use `preferredShellForSandbox` to pick the shell
- `startSandboxCallbackBridgeServer` accepts a `shellCommand` for its
server
  startup, readiness probe, and stop hook
- E2B sandbox plugin declares `shellCommand: "bash"` in `leaseMetadata`
- `resolveEnvironmentExecutionTarget` reads `shellCommand` from lease
metadata
  (validating against `"bash" | "sh" | null`)
- `environment-runtime.ts` adds `"shellCommand"` to
`INTERNAL_PLUGIN_SANDBOX_CONFIG_KEYS`
so the field round-trips through internal plugin config without leaking
to
  external plugin metadata
- Updated tests in `command-managed-runtime.test.ts`,
  `execution-target-sandbox.test.ts`, `sandbox-callback-bridge.test.ts`,
  `environment-execution-target.test.ts`

## Verification

- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils test`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server test --
environment-execution-target`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/sandbox-providers-e2b test`
- Manual QA: boot a Paperclip instance, create an E2B-backed
environment, run a
claude_local agent against it, and confirm the run completes (verifies
bash
  shell semantics flow through the callback bridge end-to-end)

## Risks

- E2B sandbox commands now run under `bash -lc` instead of `sh -lc`.
Bash is a
strict superset for the commands we issue (no busybox-only flags in our
shell
scripts), so risk is low. The shellCommand field is opt-in via lease
metadata —
  providers that don't declare it stay on `sh`.
- New optional field on `CommandManagedRuntimeSpec` and
`AdapterSandboxExecutionTarget`.
  Consumers ignoring the field retain previous behaviour (sh).
- Lease metadata now carries an additional field. Existing leases
without
`shellCommand` resolve to `null` and fall back to sh — backwards
compatible.

Devin Foley d2dd759caa plugins: make e2b template default explicit (#4901)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Remote execution environments are part of that control plane,
including sandbox-provider plugins like E2B
> - The E2B provider already normalizes config and runtime behavior
around a `base` template default
> - But the manifest still presented `template` as required, which
forces redundant operator input and makes the UI contract stricter than
runtime behavior
> - That mismatch showed up while building a repeatable QA workflow for
sandbox testing
> - This pull request makes the manifest and validation contract line up
with the existing `base` default
> - The benefit is a simpler and more accurate E2B environment setup
experience

## What Changed

- Removed the E2B manifest's `required: ["template"]` requirement so the
config schema matches runtime behavior
- Clarified the manifest description to say the template defaults to
`base` when omitted
- Added a focused unit test proving that validation normalizes a missing
template to `base`

## Verification

- Ran the focused E2B plugin test for the new behavior:
- `cd packages/plugins/sandbox-providers/e2b && pnpm test --
--testNamePattern "defaults a missing template to base"`

## Risks

- Low risk. This only loosens the schema to match the plugin's existing
runtime normalization and adds a test for that path.
- The broader E2B plugin suite currently has unrelated existing failures
outside this change; this PR does not modify those paths.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5 Codex via Codex CLI agent tooling, large-context
coding workflow with terminal tool use and local test execution.

Devin Foley c0ce35d1fb Improve E2B plugin configuration UX and fix execution timeouts (#4802)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - E2B is a sandbox provider plugin that runs agent code in isolated
cloud environments
> - Operators configure E2B through the plugin settings page
> - But the E2B API key configuration was unclear — the settings field
description didn't explain that pasted keys are auto-saved as company
secrets, and the fallback to the host `E2B_API_KEY` variable wasn't
documented
> - Additionally, long-running E2B sandbox commands were timing out
because the plugin environment RPC driver used a fixed timeout, and
environment commands competed for the single foreground command slot
> - This PR clarifies the E2B configuration UX, fixes RPC timeouts for
plugin environment execution, and runs E2B environment commands in
background mode to avoid blocking the foreground slot
> - The benefit is clearer E2B setup for operators and more reliable
sandbox command execution

## What Changed

- Updated E2B plugin manifest and settings UI to clarify API key
configuration — field description now explains that pasted keys are
saved as company secrets and documents the `E2B_API_KEY` host fallback
- Added test coverage for the plugin settings page rendering
- Fixed `plugin-environment-driver.ts` to pass the configured timeout
through to RPC calls instead of using a hardcoded default
- Updated `environment-runtime.ts` to propagate timeout from the
environment lease to the plugin driver
- Changed E2B sandbox command execution to use background handles so
long-running agent commands don't block the foreground slot needed by
the callback bridge

## Verification

- `pnpm test` — all existing and new tests pass
- `pnpm typecheck` — clean
- Manual: navigate to plugin settings, verify E2B API key field shows
the updated description text
- Manual: run an E2B-backed agent task with a long-running command,
verify it completes without RPC timeout

## Risks

- Low risk. Configuration UX change is cosmetic. The timeout fix passes
an existing value through instead of dropping it. Background command
execution is a behavioral change but only affects E2B sandbox commands —
the foreground slot is still available for bridge health checks.

Devin Foley a4ac6ff133 Add sandbox callback bridge for remote environment API access (#4801)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Agents can run inside sandboxed environments like E2B, which are
isolated from the host network
> - Sandboxed agents need to call back to the Paperclip API to report
progress, post comments, and update issue status
> - But sandbox environments cannot reach the Paperclip server directly
because they run in isolated network namespaces
> - This PR adds a callback bridge that proxies API requests from the
sandbox to the Paperclip server, running as a local HTTP server on the
host that forwards authenticated requests
> - The bridge is started automatically when an adapter launches a
sandbox execution, and torn down when the run completes
> - The benefit is sandboxed agents can interact with the Paperclip API
without requiring network-level access to the host, enabling E2B and
similar providers to work end-to-end

## What Changed

- Added `sandbox-callback-bridge.ts` in `packages/adapter-utils/` — a
lightweight HTTP bridge server that accepts requests from sandbox
environments and proxies them to the Paperclip API with authentication
- Added request validation and security policy: the bridge only forwards
requests to the configured API URL, validates content types, enforces
size limits, and rejects non-API paths
- Wired the bridge into all remote adapter execute paths (claude, codex,
cursor, gemini, pi) — the bridge starts before the agent process and the
bridge URL is passed via environment variables
- Updated `environment-execution-target.ts` to prefer the explicit API
URL from environment lease metadata for sandbox callback routing
- Fixed Claude sandbox runtime setup to work with the bridge
configuration
- Added comprehensive test coverage for bridge request handling, policy
enforcement, and sandbox execution integration
- Fixed browser bundling — the bridge module is excluded from the
frontend bundle via the adapter-utils index export

## Verification

- `pnpm test` — all existing and new tests pass, including bridge unit
tests and sandbox execution integration tests
- `pnpm typecheck` — clean
- Manual: configure an E2B environment, run an agent task, verify the
agent can post comments and update issue status through the bridge

## Risks

- Medium. This is a new network-facing component (HTTP server on
localhost). The security policy restricts forwarding to the configured
API URL only and validates all requests, but any proxy introduces attack
surface. The bridge binds to localhost only and is scoped to the
lifetime of a single agent run.

Devin Foley 868d08903e test: isolate CLI company import e2e state (#4560)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies, and its
CLI import/export path is part of how operators move company state
safely between environments.
> - The `paperclipai company import/export` e2e test is supposed to
validate that portability flow inside a hermetic harness, not against a
developer's live Paperclip home.
> - This regression showed nested CLI subprocesses could silently fall
back to ambient `PAPERCLIP_*` state and mutate a real local instance by
creating extra companies such as `CLI-1-Roundtrip-Test`.
> - The first job was to pin the test subprocesses to isolated config,
home, instance, auth, and context paths, and to add a regression
assertion that proves the nested CLI writes stay inside the test-owned
state.
> - Once the PR was up, CI and Greptile exposed two follow-on issues
that were blocking merge: plugin SDK typecheck bootstrap was racing
across packages in fresh CI, and the new lock helper needed one more fix
to release its lock on failure.
> - This pull request therefore ends up doing two tightly related
things: fixing the original CLI isolation leak, and hardening the
supporting typecheck/bootstrap path enough for the fix to verify cleanly
in CI.
> - The benefit is that the portability e2e test is now actually
isolated, and the PR verification path is stable enough to catch
regressions instead of introducing its own nondeterministic failures.

## What Changed

- Hardened `cli/src/__tests__/company-import-export-e2e.test.ts` so
nested CLI subprocesses re-seed isolated `PAPERCLIP_CONFIG`,
`PAPERCLIP_HOME`, `PAPERCLIP_INSTANCE_ID`, `PAPERCLIP_CONTEXT`,
`PAPERCLIP_AUTH_STORE`, and throwaway `HOME` values instead of falling
back to ambient machine state.
- Added a regression assertion around `paperclipai context set --json`,
then cleared the temporary `context.json` so the isolation check and the
later export/import flow stay independent.
- Passed the same isolated `HOME` into the server subprocess so both
sides of the e2e harness are symmetric.
- Introduced locking in `scripts/ensure-plugin-build-deps.mjs` and
switched the server/plugin example `typecheck` scripts to use that
helper instead of launching concurrent raw `@paperclipai/plugin-sdk`
builds.
- Fixed the helper failure path so it releases the lock before exiting
non-zero, which prevents stale-lock timeouts during parallel typecheck
runs.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run cli/src/__tests__/company-import-export-e2e.test.ts
--project paperclipai`
- `pnpm --filter paperclipai typecheck`
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- PR checks now pass on the current head, including `policy`, `verify`,
`e2e`, `security/snyk`, and `Greptile Review`.

## Risks

- Low risk. The product-facing behavior change is scoped to test harness
code in the CLI e2e suite.
- The CI stabilization changes only affect bootstrap/typecheck helper
paths for the server and plugin/example packages, but they do touch
shared verification plumbing; the main risk is changing how fresh build
artifacts are prepared in local/CI typecheck runs.

## Model Used

- Anthropic Claude via Paperclip `claude_local`, model
`claude-opus-4-7`, high-effort local coding agent, used for the initial
implementation and first peer-reviewed verification.
- OpenAI Codex via Paperclip `codex_local`, model `gpt-5.4`, high
reasoning-effort local coding agent with tool use, used for CI triage,
Greptile follow-up fixes, verification, and PR maintenance.

Devin Foley 4ef969f084 Add E2B sandbox provider plugin (#4452)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Sandbox environments are part of that execution layer, and the
recent core refactor moved provider-specific behavior to a generic
plugin seam
> - This pull request adds a dedicated `@paperclipai/plugin-e2b` package
so E2B can live entirely outside core host code
> - Because the feature is still unreleased, the plugin should model
third-party packaging directly instead of carrying extra
backward-compatibility complexity in core or the workspace lockfile
> - This branch therefore makes the E2B provider a standalone
publishable package, documents the package-local dev flow, and keeps the
publish manifest/runtime dependency story correct
> - The benefit is that E2B becomes a true plugin reference
implementation that can be installed by package name without reopening
core Paperclip code

## What Changed

- Added `packages/plugins/paperclip-plugin-e2b` as the E2B sandbox
provider plugin package
- Implemented config validation, lease acquire/resume/release/destroy
handlers, workspace realization, and command execution for E2B sandboxes
- Excluded the E2B plugin package from the root workspace so the repo no
longer needs `pnpm-lock.yaml` churn for its third-party dependency graph
- Added package-local development/install support plus a prepack
manifest generator so the published tarball still declares
`@paperclipai/plugin-sdk` and `e2b` runtime dependencies
- Addressed review feedback by fixing sandbox cleanup on acquire
failures, rejecting blank templates, normalizing fractional `timeoutMs`,
and always passing the configured template name to the E2B SDK
- Updated focused Vitest coverage for config normalization, validation,
acquire cleanup, command execution, and lease release behavior
- Updated the Dockerfile deps stage to copy the E2B package manifest so
the policy check stays in sync

## Verification

- `cd packages/plugins/paperclip-plugin-e2b && pnpm install
--ignore-workspace --no-lockfile`
- `cd packages/plugins/paperclip-plugin-e2b && pnpm build`
- `cd packages/plugins/paperclip-plugin-e2b && pnpm --ignore-workspace
test`
- `cd packages/plugins/paperclip-plugin-e2b && pnpm --ignore-workspace
typecheck`
- `cd packages/plugins/paperclip-plugin-e2b && npm pack --dry-run`

## Risks

- The package now relies on a prepack manifest rewrite so the
publish-time dependency list stays correct while the repo-local dev
manifest stays workspace-light
- The current repo snapshot is still unreleased, so the generated
publish manifest points at the repo SDK version until the normal release
flow rewrites versions before publish
- Real-world E2B environments may still expose edge cases around
lifecycle timing or sandbox metadata beyond the mocked unit coverage
