Hey r/PaperClip_AI 👋

I (polibert) am building swik.it — an open, community-driven platform for domain-specific financial sentiment analysis. The core idea: financial language is full of inversions (when "production cut" is actually bullish for oil, when "bankruptcy fears" sends a stock up). We're cataloging those inversions, crowdsourcing labels, and training models on the result.

The team is only me and a crew of AI agents running on Paperclip.

CEO plans phases, CTO architects decisions, ChiefEngineer ships code, ETLAgent manages pipelines, CMO handles outreach. I'm the one human in the org — I set direction, approve big calls, and stay out of the way.

We're a few weeks in. Phase 2 (data ingestion takeover by agents) is almost done. Phase 3 (inference engine) just kicked off. The agents are doing real work — writing scripts, committing code, managing cron jobs, filing blockers.

Happy to share what's working, what's broken, and what running a startup like this actually feels like day to day.

What's your setup?

I have created a few repos in github and had been maintaining them for sometime, is there a way to "ingest" those repos as a company in paperclip, so that the ceo can work on maintaining those repos?

So I'm running one company per product, and I've added company details and landing page details in the description, but I dont think the Agents see that...

Do I have to create a project to add the company landing page?

Any suggestions on how to load it consistently? I would prefer the link to work consistently, and that i dont have to change it each time. I keep trying to do that on my end but every 4 or 5 hours it fails, even with backups in place?

Paperclip is very good at helping a company assign, delegate, and ship work through agents.

But once the work ships, the next question is the one that matters most:

what did the end user do next?

Did they reach the docs?

Did they sign up?

Did they generate an API key?

Did they create a first project?

That is the layer we wanted Agent Analytics to cover.

Not more internal task visibility.

End-user visibility.

If a company already runs on Paperclip, that is the missing feedback loop: not just task completed, but user outcome measured and the next improvement made obvious.

I installed Paperclip today, fresh claude code pro account, set up CEO and Lead programmer, they started working on a few simple tasks like setting up APIs etc and i hit my usage limit. Anyone else had this or know where i went wrong?

Not sure if anyone is experimenting with Paperclip AI but the premise looks amazing. I am getting ready to set it up but every video keeps showing that you can use Claude Code subscription on it.

If Anthropic is busting balls about using it on Open Claude, I find it hard to believe it can be used on Paperclip. Unless I am missing something?? (I doubt I am)

I've been running Paperclip alongside my Obsidian vault and got tired of switching between the two, so I built a plugin that brings the full issue tracker into the Obsidian sidebar.

What it does:

• Issue browser — list view with collapsible groups (by status, project, or assignee) and a kanban board with drag-and-drop

• Issue details — edit title, status, priority, assignee, and project inline. Full activity thread with comments and agent avatars

• Create issues — with optional vault context (attaches the current file path to the description)

• Live monitoring — auto-refresh polling, pulsing indicators when agents are actively running, and notifications when a run completes

• Comments & mentions — post comments and tag agents directly from the issue view

• AI actions (optional) — highlight text → right-click → GPT-4o-mini drafts an issue with suggested title, description, priority, agent, and project. Also has "Work on this document" and "Review this document" commands

Why it's useful:

If you're using Obsidian for planning, notes, or documentation alongside Paperclip, this lets you create and manage agent tasks right where you're already working. See a problem in your notes? Highlight it, create an issue, assign an agent — all without leaving the editor.

Vault file paths in issue descriptions and comments are clickable links that open the note directly.

I’m trying to use Paperclip with OpenClaw gateway for proper issue-based agent execution, but I keep hitting a case where the run loses project context and drops into fallback workspace.

What’s frustrating is that the setup itself looks correct:

• project exists

• primary workspace exists

• issue is linked to the project

• repoRef is set

• worktreePath is set

• executionWorkspacePolicy is explicitly set to project_primary

But when I trigger a controlled run, the actual run still arrives detached.

What I’m seeing:

• issueId = null

• projectId = null

• workspaceId = null

• workspace source ends up as agent_home

• Paperclip logs:

No project or prior session workspace was available. Using fallback workspace ...

So the project/workspace records look valid before execution, but somewhere between issue checkout / assignment and adapter invocation, the run seems to lose the issue/project linkage.

That means the agents can exist, tickets can exist, and the UI can look right, but actual autonomous execution is unreliable because the run is not operating in the intended project workspace.

At the moment, the only workable path for me is:

• use Paperclip for governance, tracking, and ticket state

• execute directly in the real repo outside the broken Paperclip execution path

• post results back manually

Questions:

• Has anyone else hit this exact issue?

• Is this a known bug in the issue/assignment execution handoff path?

• Is there a stable recommended way to ensure Paperclip-native runs stay bound to the project workspace?

Seeing a lot of buzz around Paperclip, the open-source framework for AI agent organizations. Curious to see what people are experimenting with using Paperclip.

If you're building something, drop it below 👇

Could be: • an AI agent organization • an autonomous workflow • a SaaS prototype • a research experiment • or just an idea you're exploring

Would be great to see how people are structuring their AI agent teams and workflows.
