c65bc9a9bf Release docs for paperclip v2026.916.0 (#125)
Brings **paperclip-docs** in line with paperclip **v2026.916.0**,
shipping the `v2026.831.1 → v2026.916.0` cycle drafted on `nightly`,
stamped to the release tag, with a documentation changelog entry.

This branch was cut from `nightly` **after** merging `origin/main` into
it, so it sits on top of the operator-first connectors catalog (#124)
rather than reverting it.

## Manifest

**New pages (4)**
- `docs/reference/api/connection-intents.md` — Connection Intents API
- `docs/reference/cli/connections.md` — `connections` command
- `docs/reference/cli/managed-agent.md` — `managed-agent` command
- `docs/reference/cli/test-drive.md` — `test-drive` command

**Updated pages (17)**
- Roles & Permissions + Company Administration — `tools:*` role-default
changes
- Connect an Agent to GitHub — managed GitHub connection (Connectors),
Option C
- Agents API — Managed/Remote Agent Profiles, `***REDACTED***` env
serialization
- Tool Gateway API — agent self-authorization (`start-authorization`,
`token`)
- Instance Admin API — instance-settings + task-drain routes
- Plugin SDK — `ctx.access` + `ctx.authorization` clients,
login-PTY/duplex streaming
- Environment Variables — Paperclip ID Connector block + HTTP adapter
allowlist var
- Adapters: Codex (`gpt-5.6-sol` default, Fast mode, auth cache), Claude
Code (Fable 5.1 + CLI floor), Grok Local (SuperGrok subscription auth),
HTTP (SSRF guard), Sandbox Providers (Daytona warm runner), OpenCode
(model pre-flight)
- CLI: `adapter detect-model`, `onboard` tool-action signing secret
- Command palette — recent tasks in sidebar
- `docs/reference/changelog.md` — new `v2026.916.0` accordion entry

All 21 touched pages stamped `paperclip_version: v2026.916.0`.

## Verification

**Tag-accuracy gate (Phase 5.7)** — `check-tag-accuracy.mjs --tag
v2026.916.0 --base main --head nightly` flagged 5 pages, **every one
verified present in the code at the release tag** and cleared as known
`verify-edit` false-positive classes. No content was quarantined; **no
post-tag leaks**:

| Page | Flagged claim(s) | Verified at tag |
|---|---|---|
| `cli/connections.md` | `PAPERCLIP_RUNTIME_TOOLS_*` (3) | present in
`cli/src/commands/client/connections.ts` (runtime-injected env) |
| `cli/managed-agent.md` | `--profile-key`, `--api-key-secret-id` |
present in `cli/src/commands/managed-agent.ts`
(`.requiredOption`/`.option`) |
| `cli/test-drive.md` | `--harness` | present in
`cli/src/commands/test-drive.ts` (`new Option`) |
| `deploy/environment-variables.md` | `PAPERCLIP_ID_CONNECTOR_*` (5) |
present in `.env.example` at tag |
| `plugins/sdk.md` | `PLUGIN_*` (6) | present in
`packages/plugins/sdk/src/index.ts` (exported constants) |

Rationale: nightly's drafts were authored from parent `af8439a`, **226
commits inside the tag**, so they document in-tag surfaces by
construction.

### ⚠ Drift
`check-drift.mjs --against v2026.916.0` returned 14 records — **all
verified present at the tag** (checker false positives), listed here for
the reviewer to confirm:

- **env-var (9, high-confidence in the tool, verified present):**
`PAPERCLIP_WORKSPACE_GIT_SCAN_{CONCURRENCY,QUEUE_CAPACITY,TIMEOUT_MS,CACHE_TTL_MS}`
and
`PAPERCLIP_ID_CONNECTOR_{BASE_URL,ENVIRONMENT,INSTANCE_ID,SIGN_PRIVATE_KEY,SEAL_PRIVATE_KEY}`
— all present in `.env.example` at the tag; the drift scanner's scoped
file scan missed them.
- **Verify: rest-route (5, medium-confidence):** `POST/PUT/GET
/api/companies/import/transfers*` — present at the tag in
`server/src/routes/companies.ts`, registered via the
`COMPANY_IMPORT_TRANSFERS_ROUTE_PATH` prefix constant (the documented
prefix/dynamic-registration blind spot).

### ⚠ Verification Failures
None. All tag-accuracy and drift flags above were verified present at
the tag.

### ↻ Renames detected
None. The connectors catalog (`docs/connectors/**`) arrived via the
`main` merge (#124), not as a renamed surface; no new top-level draft
directories were introduced this cycle.

## Screenshots
**238 of 342 screenshots** flagged stale across 50 routes (see
`SCREENSHOTS_PENDING.md`). This is a wide 16-day window touching ~921 UI
files, so most are dependency-touch flags rather than confirmed visual
changes. Recommend `npm run screenshots:refresh` on this release branch
as a dedicated follow-up before merge; PNGs go to a separate PR for
human review.

## Build gates (all green on this branch)
- `npm run docs:build` — 257 pages
- `npm run docs:test` — SEO metadata, crawlable-links (71,749 links
resolve), doc-link-resolution, skill-source-blocks, static-routes,
hierarchical-nav

## Post-merge checklist (Phase 9 — do NOT skip)
- [ ] Squash-merge this PR (repo is squash-only)
- [ ] `git checkout main && git pull`
- [ ] `git tag docs/v2026.916.0 && git push --tags`
- [ ] `node scripts/sync/realign-nightly.mjs release/v2026.916.0 --push`
(restore ancestry; keep nightly post-tag drafts)
- [ ] Flip `nightly` `.sync-state.json` back to `"branch_mode":
"nightly"` (leave `base_release_tag` at `v2026.916.0`)
- [ ] Verify `docs.paperclip.ing` serves the release: a new page
(`/reference/cli/test-drive/`), a changed page, and the changelog top
entry reads `Docs for v2026.916.0`
- [ ] If production is stale, republish: `npm run docs:build && npx
wrangler pages deploy .site --project-name paperclip-docs --branch main`

paperclip_version: v2026.916.0
seo_title: The connections Command
seo_description: Search the connections catalog or request access to a service from inside an active heartbeat run, using the runtime tools the run provides.
---
# Connections Command
The `connections` commands let an agent look up connectable services and ask for access to them — from *inside* a running heartbeat run. They are how an agent discovers "is there a connector for this service?" and then raises the intent to connect it, without leaving the terminal environment the runtime hands it.
```sh
paperclipai connections search "<query>"
paperclipai connections request <service>
```
> **Note:** These commands only work during an active heartbeat run. They call runtime connection tools whose endpoints and token are injected into the run's environment (`PAPERCLIP_RUNTIME_TOOLS_CONNECTIONS_SEARCH_URL`, `PAPERCLIP_RUNTIME_TOOLS_CONNECTION_REQUEST_URL`, and `PAPERCLIP_RUNTIME_TOOLS_TOKEN`). Run them anywhere else and they stop with an error explaining they need the runtime connection environment from an active run.
---
## Search for a connection
`connections search` looks up services or capabilities in the connections catalog. The query is optional — omit it to browse.
```sh
paperclipai connections search "google calendar"
paperclipai connections search github
paperclipai connections search
```
| Argument / flag | Use |
|---|---|
| `[query]` | A service name or capability to search for. Optional; defaults to an empty search. |
| `--json` | Print the result as formatted (indented) JSON. |
The result is written to stdout as JSON. Without `--json` it is compact single-line JSON; with `--json` it is pretty-printed.
---
## Request a connection
`connections request` raises a connection request for a specific service, identified by its slug — the kind of value `connections search` returns.
```sh
paperclipai connections request google-calendar
paperclipai connections request github --json
```
| Argument / flag | Use |
|---|---|
| `<service>` | **Required.** The connectable service slug to request. |
| `--json` | Print the result as formatted (indented) JSON. |
Like `search`, the response prints to stdout as JSON, pretty-printed when you pass `--json`.
> **Tip:** Search first, request second. Take the service slug from a `search` result and feed it straight into `request` so you are asking for a service the catalog actually knows about.
