* fix(core): make indexed access explicit in auto-reply, infra, and config
Part 1/3 of the src NUIA phase-3b burn-down (#104600): iteration and
destructuring over index reads, boundary guards on parsed input, and
named invariants. Config path walkers bind the path head once; SQLite
migration key handling is hoisted without query-shape changes.
* fix(core): make indexed access explicit in cli, gateway, commands, security, shared
Part 2/3: argv/token selection restructured, gateway event/attachment
invariants named, security parsers stay fail-closed (invariant
violations throw), edit-distance matrices access checked entries.
* fix(core): make indexed access explicit across remaining src surfaces
Part 3/3: channels, plugins, process, cron, plugin-sdk, media, logging,
tui, hooks, daemon, and small directories. Latent bug fixed: a tailnet
resolver could leak undefined through a string|null contract and now
fails with a descriptive local error.
* fix(core): keep optional boundaries optional after per-commit review
Review findings: expectDefined misused where absence is a legitimate
state. CLI --profile/route-args missing next tokens take their existing
miss paths; help normalization compares --help against the last
positional again; first-time plugin install spreads absent cfg.plugins;
denylist scan iterates manifest dependency entries instead of throwing
on omitted sections; tailnet resolver returns a guaranteed string at
the source instead of a caller-side undefined throw.
* refactor(core): closed-key provider labels and honest optional passthroughs
PROVIDER_LABELS becomes a satisfies-typed closed record (static reads
provably defined; dynamic lookups go through providerUsageLabel with
honest string|undefined). Status-scan overview passes its optional
params through unchanged instead of asserting them.
* fix(channels): make getChatChannelMeta honestly optional
The original signature claimed ChatChannelMeta while leaking undefined
on bundled channel id metadata drift; three of four callers already
handled absence. The return type now says so, and the one assuming
caller falls back to the raw channel label.
* fix(core): index-safety for post-rebase main drift
Covers the sqlite-sessions flip and auth-source-plan code that landed
mid-phase, plus the channel-validation test consuming the now honestly
optional getChatChannelMeta.
* refactor(channels): split chat-meta accessors along the SDK contract
getChatChannelMeta keeps its shipped plugin-SDK signature (defined for
bundled ids, fail-loud on impossible misses); new findChatChannelMeta
carries the drift-tolerant optional contract for core auto-enable and
formatting paths.
* fix(qa-channel): own channel metadata instead of a guaranteed-undefined catalog lookup
qa-channel spread getChatChannelMeta over an id that is never in the
bundled catalog, shipping an empty setup meta by accident; the fail-loud
SDK accessor exposed it. The channel now declares its metadata once.
* fix(gateway): heartbeat projection lookahead is optional at the transcript tail
expectDefined wrapped messages[i + 1] whose absence on the final message
is the normal case; the adjacent ternary already handled it. Restores
the plain optional read with an explicit guard in the pair condition.
* fix(plugin-sdk): channel plugin factory tolerates non-bundled channel ids again
createChannelPluginBase spreads bundled catalog meta for ANY channel id,
where absence is the normal case for external plugins; the resolver is
honestly optional again while the exported bundled-id accessor keeps the
fail-loud contract.
* fix(core): spreads of optional config sections stay optional
Fresh-setup and first-install paths (crestodian setup inference, hook
installs, agent config base, target agent models) legitimately lack the
section being rebuilt; spreading undefined is the shipped {} semantics.
Removes the remaining gratuitous assertion wraps found by tree audit.
Use the passive backend Gateway client for implicit local logs reads, and route Linux follow-mode local RPC failures to a bounded/redacted active systemd journal fallback instead of stale configured-file logs.
