What
Settings writes, the plugin enable, disable, install, prune and uninstall commands, MCP client setup and reconnect, agent and skill loading, session resume, transcript reads, worktree metadata and background process spawn all now take an explicit storage handle, which changes where that state is read and written from.

Evidence
