What
The bridge relay client used for the Chrome DevTools connection gained two new methods: pushExternalConfigToPeer(deviceId, config) and pushExternalConfigToAllPeers(config). Messages sent over the bridge now carry a target_device_id. When a pairing event ('paired') occurs, the client now calls pushExternalConfigToAllPeers() to update every connected peer, instead of only updating whichever device was currently selected. A newly connected peer also receives its own targeted push.
Why
This keeps configuration consistent across every connected device rather than only the one currently selected, which matters when more than one device is bridged at once.
