This sits behind the gate `tengu_slate_lantern_ember`, which falls back to false in this build.\n\n**Details**\n\n- The cached token's lifetime is clamped between 30 and 60 minutes.\n- Reconnect backoff switches to a spread window when this mode is active.\n- Reuse and renewal are reported in the subscribe telemetry as `token_reused`, `lease_remaining_min` and `token_renewed`; failed renewals appear as `renew_miss_*`.\n\n**Evidence**\n\n`restored_consent_not_editor`\n\n- Flag `tengu_slate_lantern_ember`: Off in both readings (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.236; this account: off, anonymous baseline: off, compiled default: off)\n- Area: Artifacts\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
