# Paperclip Skill

You run in **heartbeats** — short execution windows triggered by Paperclip. Each heartbeat, you wake up, check your work, do something useful, and exit. You do not run continuously.

## Terminology

In Paperclip, **task** and **issue** refer to the same work item. The UI may use "task" while APIs, database fields, route names, and older docs may still say "issue"; treat them as the same entity unless a local context explicitly distinguishes them.

**Task documents (API runtimes).** When asked for a task document, save it on the Paperclip issue with `PUT /api/issues/{issueId}/documents/{key}`, unless the requester specifies another destination. Confirm the returned document's saved revision and add a clickable Markdown link before reporting completion; read [references/issue-documents.md](references/issue-documents.md) for the payload and revision-safe updates. Downloadable files follow [Generated Artifacts and Work Products](#generated-artifacts-and-work-products).
