Internal ChangesSection of the release
A host-managed model overlay is read as a settings source but is only reachable when a host provider is configured, otherwise unresolved.
What
The parent-slice settings reader also derives a model overlay from the host-managed provider, and reports it as a source of truth.
Details
- The source-of-truth lookup returns "parent" when either the parent slice or the
hostModelOverlay is present. - Only reachable when a host-managed provider is configured; state otherwise unresolved.
Evidence
