The function that would act on the hint gained a parameter for it this release but its body returns immediately.\n\n**Details**\n\n- A lookup helper resolves a branch name to its base commit SHA.\n- Nothing gates the parsing; the effect is absent because the consuming function does nothing.\n\n**Evidence**\n\n`worktree_checkpoint_hint`\n\n- Area: Elsewhere\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 0\/5\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
