What changed
Why
A failed plugin could stop Harness before the normal application loaded. Restarting Harness from the recovery screen bypassed the pending recovery action, leaving the app permanently stuck on the startup screen.
Impact
Users get a clear recovery flow that preserves workspaces, sessions, model configuration, and unrelated plugins. If the same conflict remains after a manual restart, DSH Desktop returns to the recovery screen instead of hanging.
Validation
npm test— 24 files, 135 tests passednpm run typechecknpm run buildnpm run package:dev:dirgit diff --checkdsh-better-sidebarconflict; manual restart briefly showed the startup screen and returned to recovery without hanging
