fix(server): editing a queued message deletes the attachments you removed - #29699
Editing a queued message to remove an attachment left its file on disk indefinitely. Accepted edits now enqueue attachment.cleanup for dropped IDs, and the worker rechecks current references before removing files. Text-only edits enqueue no cleanup. Stale edits retaining a deleted stored file are rejected; accepted receipt retries keep their existing behavior.
The current-main integration also preserves attachments shown by source history and a live fork. Main changed getThreadAttachmentIds into a thread-deletion candidate query that excludes fork-retained history. Queued-edit cleanup now requests all current thread references through includeShownByLiveFork: true; thread and project deletion keep the default query and existing semantics.
Verification
Integrated with main cc97303, using Node 26.12.1 in Linux Boat:
Before the retention repair, the real-filesystem live-fork regression fails with the shared file missing; the no-fork and deleted-fork cases pass. Afterward all three retain the history file and delete the dropped-only file, proving cleanup actually ran.
Five focused suites pass 190 tests. Changed-file verification passes format, lint, knip, GraphQL and 278 tests across ten files.
Typechecking fails on four unrelated WorkspaceSearchIndex errors. Replacing every PR-changed file with main reproduces exactly the same four errors. This is a qualified result, not a fully green check:changed run.
GPT-6.1 Sol high independently reviewed the full earlier integration; Claude Opus 5.5 high then reviewed the current-main integration, frozen tree 34790d86b7dd95a89fe0edf52df07f180fcded4a, with no P1/P2 findings (task 570cc4c7-c5e1-4ae8-83e6-58e6eb2e7bcd). Reviewers did not rerun the supplied suites.
Earlier Maria verification and earlier CI predate this integration. The tests exercise committed events, the real effect worker and real file removal, with no fresh running-client capture. The reference-read-to-removal race and cross-thread ownership policy remain the author-deferred limitations.

Macroscope's review found this PR requires human approval — Queued-message edits now permanently delete removed attachment files, with safeguards for current thread references and fork-visible history. Human confirmation is needed for the retention change and the explicitly deferred cross-thread ownership policy, since reverting cannot restore deleted files.

Queued-run edits check attachment files before dispatch when no receipt exists. Edits schedule cleanup for removed attachments. The cleanup worker can exclude attachment IDs that remain referenced by the thread.
When no receipt exists, intake skips pending uploads and checks whether other attachment files exist before dispatch. A missing file or filesystem check error causes an attachment claim error. Tests cover rejection of a missing file and replay of an edit with an existing receipt.
Edit and clean up queued attachments apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Orchestrator.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/runtimeLayer.test.ts
The queued-run edit function receives pending effects and schedules cleanup for removed attachment IDs with skipReferenced: true. Tests cover attachment replacement, shared attachments, and text-only edits.
Cleanup requests support skipReferenced. When enabled, the worker excludes attachments still referenced by the thread. Tests cover cleanup with and without the flag. Executor setup provides the projection store.
Accepted edit retries can still fail after uploads expire, and a remaining cleanup race can delete files referenced by saved messages. These issues should be resolved before merging.

Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description explains the problem (queued-message edits that drop an attachment leave the file on disk), the change (cleanup enqueued for dropped IDs, worker rechecks references, stale edits rejected, fork-retention integration), and verification (focused suites, typecheck failures reproduced on main, independent reviews). It fills the Problem, Change, and Verification sections well. The Scope section is weak: it does not link the issue that shows the bug, and it does not say why no issue is needed. The description also does not clearly state the reproduction steps, and it includes detailed integration history that the template does not ask for. The model and harness line is present. These gaps are non-critical, so the description is mostly complete.

Validate stored attachments for message.dispatch before commit.

Validate stored attachments for message.dispatch before commit.
After queued-edit cleanup deletes attachment X, a stale client can send message.dispatch with the stored attachment record for X. ThreadMessageIntake checks file existence only for queued-run.edit; AttachmentClaims.claimPendingAttachments does not validate stored attachments. Orchestrator.dispatchMessage then persists command.attachments, so the message can reference a missing file. Provider attachment readers later fail to read it.
Before this PR, queued-edit cleanup did not delete X, so this stale dispatch path did not create a missing-file reference through that workflow.

Skip attachment claims for receipt replays.

Skip attachment claims for receipt replays.
If an accepted edit included a pending upload, a retry still calls claimPendingAttachments. After the pending-upload sweep removes the source file, the retry fails before it can replay the receipt. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
Dispatch directly when a receipt exists. Add a test that replays an accepted edit after its pending upload expires.

On CodeRabbit's follow-up minor (skip attachment claims for receipt replays at ThreadMessageIntake.ts:179): declining for this PR. On main, every intake path calls claimPendingAttachments before dispatch, with no receipt check first: message.dispatch, queued-run.edit, sendToThread and launchThread. So a retry of an accepted message.dispatch whose pending upload has since been swept fails the same way today. This PR doesn't change that ordering. Its receipt check only skips the new missing-file guard it adds. Moving receipt replay ahead of claiming would change all four paths, so it belongs in its own PR.
verified unchanged head fad54ec18cbf3e7921715e8b44bff8e93103e691 on a disposable linux vm. main was d8a829e5ec. each checkout had vp i, isolated app state, and its own background dev-server run, one at a time. playwright drove /usr/bin/google-chrome. the project, threads, uploads, queued messages, and codex gpt-6.1-sol turns were created through the app, with no mocks or seeded data.
reproduced on main: queue two text files during a real codex turn, edit the queued message, remove drop-queue.txt, and save. the saved message retains only keep-queue.txt, but the removed file remains on disk.
repeated on this head: the removed file disappears and its cleanup effect succeeds. the kept file remains readable. when the queue advances, codex reads it and replies KEEP-29699.
text-only saves preserve attachments, through both the ui and a websocket command with attachments absent.
through the running client's authenticated websocket: a stale edit referencing the deleted file is rejected with "attachment not found"; cleanup preserves an attachment referenced by an earlier message in the same thread; an accepted edit retried after its unshared file is deleted returns its original successful receipt.
blacksmith: cd apps/server && vp test run src/orchestration-v2/ThreadMessageIntake.test.ts src/orchestration-v2/EffectWorker.test.ts src/orchestration-v2/runtimeLayer.test.ts passed, 133 tests across 3 files. existing ci has 33 successful checks, none pending or failing.
short runtime transcript:
main after saved removal: KEEP-29699 file exists; DROP-29699 file exists (bug)
pr after saved removal: KEEP-29699 file exists; DROP-29699 file absent
pr cleanup effects: succeeded
queued codex turn: cat kept attachment -> KEEP-29699
stale queued edit: Failure: attachment not found
shared attachment: still exists after queued reference is removed
accepted edit replay: Success, sequence 164, after its unshared file was deleted
main, reopening the saved edit with only the kept attachment:
pr, the same saved state with the removed file now deleted on disk:
Not verified
native ios/android and electron clients, macos/windows, other providers, and remote/relay connections were not exercised. question-answer, html-output, and pending-guest reference retention were not exercised in the running app. delayed-cleanup concurrency and the documented reference-check-to-file-removal race were not reproduced; focused existing tests passed, but do not establish those live interleavings.
Merge current main while preserving full thread references during queued-edit cleanup, including history displayed by a live fork.
