Startup and bridge paths carry storage and credentials further

Under the hood
Useful2 Signal2
Startup

A failed plugin hook prefetch at startup is now logged instead of blowing up.

What

Startup awaits an extra hooks-snapshot step when a storage handle is present, both at launch and after entering a worktree, and a failure to prefetch plugin hooks is now caught and logged instead of surfacing as an unhandled error.

Details
  • The snapshot branch requires both a non-undefined storage handle and a further condition that is not resolved in this build.
  • The bridge fast path now primes fast-path credentials and seeds install IDs before the policy check.
Evidence

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