Built-in plugins now register unconditionally at startup, in addition to existing conditional registration

What

Claude Code's built-in plugins are now registered once unconditionally as part of its startup check, in addition to the existing registration that happens when CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT is not set to local-agent.

Why

This is internal startup plumbing. The finding doesn't specify a user-visible effect, but it suggests built-in plugins are now registered more consistently regardless of entrypoint.

The writer flagged doubtWhat practical difference this makes for a user, beyond registration now happening unconditionally as well as conditionally, is not stated.
