[codex] fix(recovery): make review recovery dispatch durable

[kkroo]

Thinking Path

• Paperclip manages AI agents and their external execution lifecycle.
• A review-stage recovery escalation persists the source issue as blocked with an active recovery action before it dispatches an owner wake.
• That wake must run after the transaction commits, because it can synchronously claim the issue.
• A transient enqueue failure or process exit in that post-commit gap previously left the blocked issue with no retry path.
• The same transaction defers activity publication to avoid phantom events, but the returned publisher was discarded on success.
• This successor re-applies the intended fix(recovery): persist job-missing invocation evidence (BLO-18106) #1048 recovery work from current master and makes both reviewed gaps durable.
• The benefit is that review recovery is eventually redelivered and committed escalation activity reaches live and plugin consumers.

Linked Issues or Issue Description

• Supersedes fix(recovery): persist job-missing invocation evidence (BLO-18106) #1048.
• Refs fix(recovery): persist job-missing invocation evidence (BLO-18106) #1048. The original is App-authored, so it cannot receive the independent Ally App approval required by the protected review gate.

What Changed

• Re-applied the intended job-missing and review-stage recovery behavior from fix(recovery): persist job-missing invocation evidence (BLO-18106) #1048 onto current master under an independent author.
• Added an active-recovery-action backstop that uses a persisted cooldown claim and unique delivery token to redeliver an undelivered owner wake without widening the ordinary blocked-issue sweep.
• Published the deferred review-stage escalation activity after its transaction commits.
• Added focused regressions for a thrown post-commit wake dispatch and for the committed live activity event.

Verification

• pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run --no-file-parallelism src/tests/issue-recovery-actions.test.ts -t review-stage recovery wake|publishes the committed review-stage escalation activity
  • 2 passed.
• pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server exec vitest run --no-file-parallelism src/tests/activity-log-responsible-user.test.ts src/tests/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts
  • 188 passed.
• pnpm --filter @paperclipai/server typecheck
  • passed.

Risks

• Low to moderate: the backstop may re-attempt a delivery after its 30-minute cooldown only while the active recovery action remains within its existing attempt and horizon bounds. It does not re-route, re-escalate, or change issue status.
• No migration, UI, or documentation change.

Model Used

• OpenAI GPT-5 Codex, with code execution, GitHub tooling, and focused test execution.

@ally please review exact head ba64d28.

This independently authored successor supersedes #1048. It re-applies the intended recovery behavior from current master and addresses the two current-head Important findings: durable redelivery after a post-commit review-stage wake failure, and post-commit publication of the deferred escalation activity. Focused regressions, the 188-test recovery suite, and server typecheck pass.

Strengths

• The review-stage escalation now commits its recovery action before dispatching the wake, preserving a repairable state across post-commit delivery failures.
• Stage and participant checks prevent an obsolete review run from overwriting a newer review stage.
• The deferred activity publication is correctly emitted only after the transaction commits.

Recommended Action

1. Ready to merge once required checks complete.

• Review-stage escalation persists the recovery action within the locked transaction, then dispatches after commit so a failed delivery remains repairable.
• The wake backstop uses a persisted cooldown claim and delivery key to avoid duplicate recovery dispatches while retaining eventual redelivery.
• Deferred activity publication prevents rollback phantom events and is explicitly published after a successful escalation commit.

Important Issues (1)

• [native-codex] server/src/services/heartbeat.ts:24504 — hasQueuedReplacementIssueWake only filters by company, queued status, and payload.issueId; it does not require the queued wake to target the failed review participant or its active stage. A queued comment/monitor wake for another agent (or an earlier stage) therefore suppresses this failure's escalation, leaving the current review participant pending without a recovery action or a runnable replacement.
  • Restrict the guard to a wake/run for the same participant and stage, or prove that the queued wake is an executable replacement for the current review stage.

Suggestions (0)

Strengths

• The review-stage state mutation and recovery action now commit before the independent wake dispatch.
• The new backstop gives failed post-commit delivery a durable retry path.

Recommended Action

1. Address the Important recovery-suppression bug before merge.

@allyblockcast please separately inspect this exact head and submit a formal User-seat approve or request-changes review.

The head is rebased onto current origin/master and addresses the prior Important finding: queued replacement wakes must now match the issue, review participant, recovery reason, and active stage. Regressions cover unrelated agents, prior stages, wrong reasons, and exact-match duplicate suppression. Server typecheck passes; the focused test file imports successfully, while its embedded-Postgres cases are skipped on macOS and will execute in Linux CI.
