Paperclip operating-state work remains canary-only

Paperclip did not cut a stable tag after v2026.626.0; July 2 work is canary only through canary/v2026.702.0-canary.8. The canary stream includes actual authors on agent-authored comments, sandbox bridge credential/review recovery, instance-scoped custom images, live descendant status inbox rows, and Work Timeline backend/UI work whose page later left the nav. Channel: preview-or-beta. Operator consequence: useful operating-state work exists, but not in the stable line.
