What
The tool that reads and writes the artifact database was rebuilt with different internal naming; its validation, output-directory saving, batch writes and error messages are unchanged apart from passing the new restricted flag into the path safety check. The block that rendered its results no longer follows it here, and whether it moved elsewhere in the bundle or was dropped is not visible from this code.
Evidence
read_db saves only to local directories — out_dir names a network path or cannot be resolved
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
