What
Bridge environment registration now identifies the machine with a persistent id, so the same workstation is recognised across sessions.
Details
POST /v1/environments/bridge includes machine_id when one is available, alongside machine_name, directory, branch and git_repo_urlthe id is a UUID stored in global config under the new remoteControlMachineId key it is only handed back to callers if the config write actually succeeded, which is why the global-config save path now returns a boolean instead of nothing Evidence
machine_id: a.machineId, remoteControlMachineId
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
