A panic during the envelope-driven command build no longer just degrades
to helper commands (#447): the partition's discovery cache is first moved
aside to <partition>.quarantined (kept for inspection, previous quarantine
replaced) and the build retried once against a fresh fetch. Any path that
delivers a fixed binary -- dws upgrade or a reinstall -- now escapes the
lock-out with zero manual cache surgery; only a second panic (remote
envelope still poisoned, or offline) falls back to the degraded helper
set with the 'dws cache refresh' hint.
dws upgrade additionally clears the discovery-derived caches (market /
tools / detail across all partitions, leaving the downloads dir alone)
after the binary swap, so the upgraded binary rebuilds its command tree
from fresh data instead of inheriting snapshots written by the old
version.
The dynamic command tree is built from cached discovery data before
Cobra dispatches any command. A panic during that build (e.g. a
duplicate pflag registration fed by a poisoned cache, as seen before
1.0.32: "chat_permission_grant flag redefined: params") aborted every
invocation — including 'dws cache refresh', the very command that
repairs the cache. The only way out was manually deleting
~/.dws/cache/<partition>/tools/*.
Wrap the envelope-driven build in a local recover: on panic the CLI now
logs the failure, prints a stderr hint pointing at 'dws cache refresh',
and falls back to the hardcoded helper commands so utility commands
stay alive and users can self-heal.
