The new helpers:\n\n- Read the user settings file, falling back to policy settings if needed.\n\n- Validate the result against a new `autoModeConfigSchema`.\n\n- Are used to populate the `userAutoModeEnvironmentConfigured` value only when the auto-mode environment array is non-empty and that value hasn't already been supplied.\n\n**Why**\n\nMaking this a reusable, schema-validated helper means the auto-mode-environment check can be reused wherever it's needed, not just at spawn time, and is validated consistently.\n\n- Area: Remote Control\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 0\/5"}
