What

Validation of plugins and projects now applies the same safety rules the loader does. Component directories and hooks.json are read without following symlinks and are size-capped, and anything refused becomes a warning telling you to validate the real path separately.

Details
  • Per directory, counts of skipped symlinks, non-regular files and oversized files are aggregated into one message rather than listed individually.
  • Error paths are truncated at 200 characters and messages at 1000.
Evidence

hooks.json is past the size cap and was not read

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
