…boot recovery Handles connection loss, forced shutdowns, and duplicate instances: - Single-instance mutex: prevents two KeyGate instances running simultaneously - Persistent state file (C:\ProgramData\KeyGate\activation-state.json): writes state BEFORE each step, survives power cuts - Connection monitor: 2-second polling with auto-resume on reconnect - Invoke-WithRetry: wraps API calls with automatic retry + connection wait - Boot recovery scheduled task: on next boot, checks for pending state and reports activation result to server - Resume-FromState: on next launch, detects interrupted session and resumes from the correct phase (hw_submitted, key_installed, activated) Tested on Windows 11: - Mutex: correctly blocks second instance - State file: atomic write (tmp + move) survives interruption - Connection check: ping + HTTP health fallback works - Boot recovery: requires admin (CMD launcher always runs as admin) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
