A missing config file is now reported with restore instructions on the newer storage path too.
What's wrong with this entry?
The notice that your Claude configuration file could not be found, along with the instructions for restoring it from backup, now also appears when the newer storage backend reports the file missing during an update. That path previously handled the case silently.
- The notice text and restore instructions were pulled into a single shared helper.
- If printing the notice itself fails, a new error line reads "Could not report the missing config file".
- The same path now also reports when a config was repaired from cache or replaced during a write.
Could not report the missing config file:
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
