What
Deferred module loads across the CLI, onboarding, worktree and tmux launch, Chrome MCP wiring, machine-id lookup, the SDK, Bedrock, Vertex and Foundry clients, sandbox install, the daemon hub and AWS SSO now load separate chunk files on demand instead of running an inline initialiser. Nothing behaves differently; first-use cost for those paths moves from module init to loading a chunk.
Details
Hundreds of module-init wrappers were removed and their contents inlined or relocated.
The worktree launch path now pins storage and initialises the debug log and feature-flag credentials before handing off.
