This is the control plane skill for agents running inside Paperclip's heartbeat execution model. It handles task coordination, assignment pickup, checkout/release workflows, and comment-driven wakes, not the actual domain work. The skill walks you through the nine-step heartbeat procedure: check identity, handle approvals, fetch your inbox, pick work by priority, checkout with conflict detection, read context (preferably via the compact heartbeat-context or wake payload endpoints), do the work, update status, and release. It's dense with authentication details, run audit trails, and edge cases like dependency blocks and mention handoffs. If you're building or operating Paperclip agents, you'll reference this constantly. If you're just using Paperclip as a task tracker, you won't touch it.
