Unclear The finding doesn't describe any visible effect of this beyond the internal request format.

What

  • The artifact frame-boot request function now takes a kind parameter (defaulting to "probe") and a watchBoot flag. Probe requests append &bk=probe to the query string, while watch/sync/peer requests append a &vn= version parameter.
  • The artifact-fetch helper used by the publish/read flow likewise now takes kind (default "probe") and watchBoot, alongside its existing relayOnly/agentPeer/syncLive/speculative options, feeding into the same underlying request.

Why Making the request kind and boot-watching explicit lets the different artifact flows (probing, watching, syncing, peer requests) be distinguished consistently wherever an artifact request is made.
