Aegis is most of the remaining launch cost: ~165 ms of synchronous
activation, then ~610 ms of main-thread work loading its crypto and
WizardConnect deps. It was left on startup because another session
owns bundled-addons/aegis. NOTE-aegis-on-demand.md says exactly what it
needs, measured against 0.27.1:
- addon.json: "activation": "on-demand", plus panels [{id:"main",
title:"Wallet", page:"panel.html"}].
- activate() must return a promise that resolves once deps are loaded
and, only if the vault is already unlocked, wallets are mounted.
vault.derive never rejects on a locked vault, so awaiting
mountAllWallets there would stall every first call for the full 5 s
host wait.
- Persisted WizardConnect pairings (wc/<walletId>/uris) need a relay
listener: call api.startAtLaunch(true) while any exist, false when
none are left.
- Bridge calls, panel open, wiz:// links and Settings calls already wake
it. The dapp globals are injected from the manifest before it runs.
GOTCHAS: an enabled add-on may not be running, so code in main reaches
add-ons through dispatch() rather than checking isActive()/hasHandler().
