## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies, so agent
work needs visible ownership, recovery, and operator controls.
> - This local branch had accumulated several related control-plane
reliability and operator-experience fixes across recovery actions,
watchdog folding, model-profile defaults, mentions, markdown editing,
plugin launchers, and small UI polish.
> - The branch needed to be converted into a PR against the current
`origin/master` without losing dirty work or including lockfile/workflow
churn.
> - The safest standalone shape is a single rollup PR because the
recovery/server/UI files overlap heavily across the local commits and
splitting would create avoidable conflicts.
> - This pull request replays the local branch onto latest
`origin/master`, preserves the uncommitted work as logical commits, and
adds a Zod 4 validator compatibility fix found during verification.
> - The benefit is that the May 17 local branch can be reviewed and
merged as one coherent, conflict-free branch under the 100-file Greptile
limit.
## What Changed
- Rebased the local May 17 branch work onto current `origin/master` in a
dedicated worktree.
- Preserved and committed previously dirty changes for recovery retry
handling, plugin/sidebar launcher polish, and `.herenow` ignores.
- Added recovery-action behavior for returning source issues to `todo`
when retrying source-scoped recovery.
- Included the existing local recovery/liveness/watchdog fold, Codex
cheap-profile, markdown/mention, duplicate-agent, and UI polish commits
from the branch.
- Normalized shared validator `z.record(...)` schemas to explicit
string-key records for Zod 4 compatibility.
- Confirmed the PR has no `pnpm-lock.yaml` or `.github/workflows/*`
changes and stays below the 100-file Greptile limit.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-scripts`
- `npm run install` in
`node_modules/.pnpm/sqlite3@5.1.7/node_modules/sqlite3` to build the
local native sqlite3 binding after installing with scripts disabled
- `pnpm exec vitest run packages/shared/src/validators/issue.test.ts
packages/shared/src/project-mentions.test.ts
packages/adapter-utils/src/server-utils.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-model-profile.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts

ui/src/components/MarkdownEditor.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx
ui/src/lib/duplicate-agent-payload.test.ts
ui/src/pages/Routines.test.tsx`
- First pass: 13 files passed with 201 passing tests; 3 server files
failed before sqlite3 native binding was built.
- After rebuilding sqlite3:
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-model-profile.test.ts`,
`server/src/__tests__/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts`, and
`server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-active-run-output-watchdog.test.ts`
passed/loaded; embedded Postgres tests were skipped by the local host
guard.
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/shared typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
## Risks
- Medium risk: this is a broad rollup PR across recovery semantics,
server tests, shared validators, and UI surfaces.
- Some embedded Postgres tests skipped locally due the host guard, so CI
should provide the stronger database-backed signal.
- UI changes were covered by component tests, but no browser screenshot
was captured in this PR creation pass.
- This branch may overlap with existing recovery/liveness PR work; merge
this PR independently or restack/close overlapping branches rather than
merging duplicate implementations together.

## 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.

## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Issue comments and documents are the main working surface where
operators and agents collaborate
> - File drops, markdown editing, and long issue descriptions need to
feel predictable because they sit directly in the task execution loop
> - The composer had edge cases around drag targets, attachment
feedback, image drops, and long markdown content crowding the page
> - This pull request polishes the issue composer, hardens markdown
editor regressions, and adds a fold curtain for long issue
descriptions/documents
> - The benefit is a calmer issue detail surface that handles uploads
and long work products without hiding state or breaking layout
## What Changed
- Scoped issue-composer drag/drop behavior so the composer owns file
drops without turning the whole thread into a competing drop target.
- Added clearer attachment upload feedback for non-image files and
image-drop stability coverage.
- Hardened markdown editor and markdown body handling around HTML-like
tag regressions.
- Added `FoldCurtain` and wired it into issue descriptions and issue
documents so long markdown previews can expand/collapse.
- Added Storybook coverage for the fold curtain state.
## Verification
- `pnpm exec vitest run ui/src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownEditor.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx --config ui/vitest.config.ts`
passed: 3 files, 75 tests.
- `git diff --check public-gh/master..pap-2228-editor-composer-polish --
. ':(exclude)ui/storybook-static'` passed.
- Confirmed this PR does not include `pnpm-lock.yaml`.
## Risks
- Low-to-medium risk: this changes user-facing composer/drop behavior
and long markdown display.
- The fold curtain uses DOM measurement and `ResizeObserver`; reviewers
should check browser behavior for very long descriptions and documents.
- No database migrations.

## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5, with shell, git, Paperclip
API, and GitHub CLI tool use in the local Paperclip workspace.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - Operators and agents coordinate through company-scoped issues,
comments, documents, and task relationships.
> - Issue text can mention other tickets, but those references were
previously plain markdown/text without durable relationship data.
> - That made it harder to understand related work, surface backlinks,
and keep cross-ticket context visible in the board.
> - This pull request adds first-class issue reference extraction,
storage, API responses, and UI surfaces.
> - The benefit is that issue references become queryable, navigable,
and visible without relying on ad hoc text scanning.
## What Changed
- Added shared issue-reference parsing utilities and exported
reference-related types/constants.
- Added an `issue_reference_mentions` table, idempotent migration DDL,
schema exports, and database documentation.
- Added server-side issue reference services, route integration,
activity summaries, and a backfill command for existing issue content.
- Added UI reference pills, related-work panels, markdown/editor mention
handling, and issue detail/property rendering updates.
- Added focused shared, server, and UI tests for parsing, persistence,
display, and related-work behavior.
- Rebased `PAP-735-first-class-task-references` cleanly onto
`public-gh/master`; no `pnpm-lock.yaml` changes are included.
## Verification
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm test:run packages/shared/src/issue-references.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/issue-references-service.test.ts
ui/src/components/IssueRelatedWorkPanel.test.tsx
ui/src/components/IssueProperties.test.tsx
ui/src/components/MarkdownBody.test.tsx`
## Risks
- Medium risk because this adds a new issue-reference persistence path
that touches shared parsing, database schema, server routes, and UI
rendering.
- Migration risk is mitigated by `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS`, guarded
foreign-key creation, and `CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS` statements so
users who have applied an older local version of the numbered migration
can re-run safely.
- UI risk is limited by focused component coverage, but reviewers should
still manually inspect issue detail pages containing ticket references
before merge.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies.
> - The board UI is the main operator surface, so its component and
workflow coverage needs to stay reviewable as the product grows.
> - This branch adds Storybook as a dedicated UI reference surface for
core Paperclip screens and interaction patterns.
> - That work spans Storybook infrastructure, app-level provider wiring,
and a large fixture set that can render real control-plane states
without a live backend.
> - The branch also expands coverage across agents, budgets, issues,
chat, dialogs, navigation, projects, and data visualization so future UI
changes have a concrete visual baseline.
> - This pull request packages that Storybook work on top of the latest
`master`, excludes the lockfile from the final diff per repo policy, and
fixes one fixture contract drift caught during verification.
> - The benefit is a single reviewable PR that adds broad UI
documentation and regression-surfacing coverage without losing the
existing branch work.
## What Changed
- Added Storybook 10 wiring for the UI package, including root scripts,
UI package scripts, Storybook config, preview wrappers, Tailwind
entrypoints, and setup docs.
- Added a large fixture-backed data source for Storybook so complex
board states can render without a live server.
- Added story suites covering foundations, status language,
control-plane surfaces, overview, UX labs, agent management, budget and
finance, forms and editors, issue management, navigation and layout,
chat and comments, data visualization, dialogs and modals, and
projects/goals/workspaces.
- Adjusted several UI components for Storybook parity so dialogs, menus,
keyboard shortcuts, budget markers, markdown editing, and related
surfaces render correctly in isolation.
- Rebasing work for PR assembly: replayed the branch onto current
`master`, removed `pnpm-lock.yaml` from the final PR diff, and aligned
the dashboard fixture with the current `DashboardSummary.runActivity`
API contract.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui build-storybook`
- Manual diff audit after rebase: verified the PR no longer includes
`pnpm-lock.yaml` and now cleanly targets current `master`.
- Before/after UI note: before this branch there was no dedicated
Storybook surface for these Paperclip views; after this branch the local
Storybook build includes the new overview and domain story suites in
`ui/storybook-static`.
## Risks
- Large static fixture files can drift from shared types as dashboard
and UI contracts evolve; this PR already needed one fixture correction
for `runActivity`.
- Storybook bundle output includes some large chunks, so future growth
may need chunking work if build performance becomes an issue.
- Several component tweaks were made for isolated rendering parity, so
reviewers should spot-check key board surfaces against the live app
behavior.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent in the Paperclip harness; exact
serving model ID is not exposed in-runtime to the agent.
- Tool-assisted workflow with terminal execution, git operations, local
typecheck/build verification, and GitHub CLI PR creation.
- Context window/reasoning mode not surfaced by the harness.

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the control plane for autonomous AI companies.
> - V1 needs to stay local-first while also supporting shared,
authenticated deployments.
> - Human operators need real identities, company membership, invite
flows, profile surfaces, and company-scoped access controls.
> - Agents and operators also need the existing issue, inbox, workspace,
approval, and plugin flows to keep working under those authenticated
boundaries.
> - This branch accumulated the multi-user implementation, follow-up QA
fixes, workspace/runtime refinements, invite UX improvements,
release-branch conflict resolution, and review hardening.
> - This pull request consolidates that branch onto the current `master`
branch as a single reviewable PR.
> - The benefit is a complete multi-user implementation path with tests
and docs carried forward without dropping existing branch work.
## What Changed
- Added authenticated human-user access surfaces: auth/session routes,
company user directory, profile settings, company access/member
management, join requests, and invite management.
- Added invite creation, invite landing, onboarding, logo/branding,
invite grants, deduped join requests, and authenticated multi-user E2E
coverage.
- Tightened company-scoped and instance-admin authorization across
board, plugin, adapter, access, issue, and workspace routes.
- Added profile-image URL validation hardening, avatar preservation on
name-only profile updates, and join-request uniqueness migration cleanup
for pending human requests.
- Added an atomic member role/status/grants update path so Company
Access saves no longer leave partially updated permissions.
- Improved issue chat, inbox, assignee identity rendering,
sidebar/account/company navigation, workspace routing, and execution
workspace reuse behavior for multi-user operation.
- Added and updated server/UI tests covering auth, invites, membership,
issue workspace inheritance, plugin authz, inbox/chat behavior, and
multi-user flows.
- Merged current `public-gh/master` into this branch, resolved all
conflicts, and verified no `pnpm-lock.yaml` change is included in this
PR diff.

- Confirmed branch has no uncommitted changes and is `0` commits behind
`public-gh/master` before PR creation.
- Confirmed no `pnpm-lock.yaml` change is staged or present in the PR
diff.
## Risks
- High review surface area: this PR contains the accumulated multi-user
branch plus follow-up fixes, so reviewers should focus especially on
company-boundary enforcement and authenticated-vs-local deployment
behavior.
- UI behavior changed across invites, inbox, issue chat, access
settings, and sidebar navigation; no browser screenshots are included in
this branch-consolidation PR.
- Plugin install, upgrade, and lifecycle/config mutations now require
instance-admin access, which is intentional but may change expectations
for non-admin board users.
- A join-request dedupe migration rejects duplicate pending human
requests before creating unique indexes; deployments with unusual
historical duplicates should review the migration behavior.
- Company member role/status/grant saves now use a new combined
endpoint; older separate endpoints remain for compatibility.
- Full production build was not run locally in this heartbeat; CI should
cover the full matrix.
## Model Used
- OpenAI Codex coding agent, GPT-5-based model, CLI/tool-use
environment. Exact deployed model identifier and context window were not
exposed by the runtime.

Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
## 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-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

Co-authored-by: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - The issue detail page displays comment threads with rich timeline
rendering
> - Long threads (100+ items) cause severe typing lag in the comment
composer because every keystroke re-renders the entire timeline
> - CDP tracing confirmed 110ms avg key→paint latency and 60 long tasks
blocking the main thread for 3.7s total
> - This pull request memoizes the timeline, stabilizes callback props,
debounces editor observers, and reduces idle polling frequency
> - The benefit is responsive typing (21ms avg, 5.3× faster) even on
threads with 100+ timeline items
## What Changed
- **CommentThread.tsx**: Memoize `TimelineList` with `useMemo` so typing
state changes don't re-render 143 timeline items; extract
`handleFeedbackVote` to `useCallback`; added missing deps
(`pendingApprovalAction`, `onApproveApproval`, `onRejectApproval`) to
useMemo array
- **IssueDetail.tsx**: Extract inline callbacks (`handleCommentAdd`,
`handleCommentVote`, `handleCommentImageUpload`,
`handleCommentAttachImage`, `handleInterruptQueued`) to `useCallback`
with `.mutateAsync` deps (not full mutation objects) for stable
references; add conditional polling intervals (3s active / 30s idle) for
`liveRuns`, `activeRun`, `linkedRuns`, and timeline queries
- **MarkdownEditor.tsx**: Debounce `MutationObserver` and
`selectionchange` handlers via `requestAnimationFrame` coalescing
- **LiveRunWidget.tsx**: Accept optional `liveRunsData` and
`activeRunData` props to reuse parent-fetched data instead of duplicate
polling
## Verification
- Navigated to [IP address]:3105/PAPA/issues/PAPA-32 (thread with 100+
items)
- Typed in comment composer — lag eliminated, characters appear
instantly
- CDP trace test script (`test-typing-lag.mjs`) confirmed: avg 21ms
key→paint (was 110ms), 5 long tasks (was 60), 0.5s blocking (was 3.7s)
- Ran `pnpm test:run` locally — all tests pass
## Risks
- Low risk. All changes are additive memoization and callback
stabilization — no behavioral changes. Polling intervals are only
reduced for idle state; active runs still poll at 3–5s.

> - When users paste agent instructions copied from terminals or
consoles, extra leading whitespace is uniformly added to every line
> - PR #2572 fixed markdown structure preservation on paste but did not
address the leading whitespace (dedent) problem
> - This pull request adds a Lexical paste normalization plugin that
strips common leading whitespace and normalizes line endings before
MDXEditor processes pasted content
> - The benefit is that pasted content from terminals/consoles renders
correctly without manual cleanup
## What Changed
- **`ui/src/lib/normalize-markdown.ts`** — Pure utility that computes
minimum common indentation across non-empty lines and strips it
(dedent), plus CRLF → LF normalization
- **`ui/src/lib/paste-normalization.ts`** — Lexical `PASTE_COMMAND`
plugin at `CRITICAL` priority that intercepts plain-text pastes,
normalizes the markdown, and re-dispatches cleaned content for MDXEditor
to process. Skips HTML-rich pastes.
- **`ui/src/components/MarkdownEditor.tsx`** — Registers the new plugin;
updates PR #2572's `handlePasteCapture` to use `normalizeMarkdown()`
(dedent + CRLF) instead of `normalizePastedMarkdown()` (CRLF only) for
the markdown-routing path
- **`ui/src/lib/paste-normalization.test.ts`** — 9 unit tests covering
dedent, CRLF normalization, mixed indent, empty lines, single-line
passthrough, and edge cases
## Verification
- `pnpm --dir ui exec vitest run src/lib/paste-normalization.test.ts` —
9 tests pass
- Manual: paste indented agent instructions from a terminal into any
inline markdown editor and confirm leading whitespace is stripped
## Risks
- Low risk. The plugin only activates for plain-text pastes (no HTML
clipboard data). HTML/rich pastes pass through unchanged. Single-line
pastes are not modified. The dedent logic is conservative — it only
strips whitespace common to all non-empty lines.

Supersedes #2499.
## Thinking Path
1. **Project context**: Paperclip uses a markdown editor
(`MarkdownEditor`) for document editing. Users expect to paste
markdown-formatted text from external sources (like code editors, other
documents) and have it render correctly.
2. **Problem identification**: When users paste plain text containing
markdown syntax (e.g., `# Heading`, `- list item`), the editor was
treating it as plain text, resulting in raw markdown syntax being
displayed rather than formatted content.
3. **Root cause**: The default browser paste behavior doesn't recognize
markdown syntax in plain text. The editor needed to intercept paste
events and detect when the clipboard content looks like markdown.
4. **Solution design**:
- Create a utility (`markdownPaste.ts`) to detect markdown patterns in
plain text
- Add a paste capture handler in `MarkdownEditor` that intercepts paste
events
- When markdown is detected, prevent default paste and use
`insertMarkdown` instead
- Handle edge cases (code blocks, file pastes, HTML content)
## What
- Added `ui/src/lib/markdownPaste.ts`: Utility to detect markdown
patterns and normalize line endings
- Added `ui/src/lib/markdownPaste.test.ts`: Test coverage for markdown
detection
- Modified `ui/src/components/MarkdownEditor.tsx`: Added paste capture
handler to intercept and handle markdown paste
## Why
Users frequently copy markdown content from various sources (GitHub,
documentation, notes) and expect it to render correctly when pasted into
the editor. Without this fix, users see raw markdown syntax (e.g., `#
Title` instead of a formatted heading), which degrades the editing
experience.
## How to Verify
1. Open any document in Paperclip
2. Copy markdown text from an external source (e.g., `# Heading\n\n-
Item 1\n- Item 2`)
3. Paste into the editor
4. **Expected**: The content should render as formatted markdown
(heading + bullet list), not as plain text with markdown syntax
### Test Coverage
```bash
cd ui
npm test -- markdownPaste.test.ts
```
All tests should pass, including:
- Windows line ending normalization (`\r\n` → `\n`)
- Old-Mac line ending normalization (`\r` → `\n`)
- Markdown block detection (headings, lists, code fences, etc.)
- Plain text rejection (non-markdown content)
## Risks
1. **False positives**: Plain text containing markdown-like characters
(e.g., a paragraph starting with `#` as a hashtag) may be incorrectly
treated as markdown. The detection uses a heuristic that requires
block-level markdown patterns, which reduces but doesn't eliminate this
risk.
2. **Removed focus guard**: The previous implementation used
`isFocusedRef` to prevent `onChange` from firing during programmatic
`setMarkdown` calls. This guard was removed as part of refactoring. The
assumption is that MDXEditor does not fire `onChange` during
`setMarkdown`, but this should be monitored for unexpected parent update
loops.
3. **Clipboard compatibility**: The paste handler specifically looks for
`text/plain` content and ignores `text/html` (to preserve existing HTML
paste behavior). This means pasting from rich text editors that provide
both HTML and plain text will continue to use the HTML path, which may
or may not be the desired behavior.

The portal-rendered mention dropdown could appear off-screen on mobile
devices. Clamp top/left to keep it within the viewport and cap width
to 100vw - 16px.

The mention suggestion dropdown was getting clipped when typing at the
end of a long description inside modals/dialogs because parent containers
had overflow-y-auto. Render it via createPortal to document.body with
fixed positioning and z-index 9999 so it always appears above all UI.

The previous fix (validateUrl on linkPlugin) only affected the link dialog,
not the markdown-to-Lexical import path. Lexical's LinkNode.sanitizeUrl()
converts agent:// and project:// URLs to about:blank because they aren't
in its allowlist. Override the prototype method to preserve these schemes
so mention chips render correctly.

When dragging or pasting an image into a markdown editor field, the cursor
would end up right next to the image making it hard to continue typing.
Now inserts two newlines after the image so a new paragraph is ready.

MarkdownEditor's plugins useMemo depended on imageUploadHandler, which
was a new arrow function on every parent render. This caused MDXEditor
to reinitialize plugins on each render, firing onChange, which updated
the overlay state in AgentConfigForm, triggering a parent re-render —
creating an infinite "Maximum update depth exceeded" loop.
Fix: use a stable ref for imageUploadHandler so plugins are only created
once (keyed on whether a handler exists, not its identity). Also use a
module-level empty object for env config fallback to avoid unnecessary
EnvVarEditor re-renders.

Rename all workspace packages from @paperclip/* to @paperclipai/* and
the CLI binary from `paperclip` to `paperclipai` in preparation for
npm publishing. Bump CLI version to 0.1.0 and add package metadata
(description, keywords, license, repository, files). Update all
imports, documentation, user-facing messages, and tests accordingly.

Fix project mention insertion to use markdown-level replacement instead
of DOM manipulation. Restructure project validator to accept an optional
workspace when creating a project.

Add project mention system using project:// URI scheme with optional
color parameter. Mentions render as colored pill chips in markdown
bodies and the WYSIWYG editor. Autocomplete in editors shows both
agents and projects. Server extracts mentioned project IDs from issue
content and returns them in the issue detail response.

After tab-completing a mention, the cursor was placed before the
completion instead of after it. The root cause: Lexical's DOM
reconciliation after document.execCommand("insertText") would lose
the browser-set cursor position. Added requestAnimationFrame-based
cursor repositioning that first tries the original text node, then
falls back to searching for the mention text in the DOM.
Also normalizes editor content padding for consistent mention dropdown
positioning.

- Use a ref for mentionState so selectMention always reads the latest
value (prevents stale-closure "blink" on click/Enter/Tab)
- Add explicit space key handling to dismiss the popup immediately
- Move Escape handler outside filteredMentions check so it always works
- Sync mentionStateRef on all state transitions
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The old approach used document.execCommand("insertText") to directly
manipulate the contentEditable DOM, but MDXEditor (Lexical) reverted
these changes during reconciliation causing the "blink" bug.
Fix: work at the markdown string level instead — find the @query in
the markdown, replace it with @Name, and update via setMarkdown().
Also add an input event listener alongside selectionchange for more
reliable mention detection (fixes space-to-dismiss).
